The Journal is glad to see the Arkansas Gazette agitating the movement for better election law in Arkansas. The state is badly in need of new election law, one that provides for an immediate count of the returns, and the immediate canvassing of the same by the county election board, thus doing away with the possibi- lity of tampering with returns and permitting the people to know the result without having to wait a week or ten days.

This is the tale of Annie Fadd,
Who common things eschewed,
She started on her sad career
With predigested food.
The food was manufactured in
A cunning sort of mill
Half of the users work was done,
That he might eat his FILL
From half-chewed food twas but a step
For her to sigh and mourn
Until her parents bought her hats
And dresses all half-worn.
She never took a promenade
Unless it was half-walked
She never Joined in any chat
Until it was alf-talked
When asked about her age, she smiled,
And said she was half-young;
Twas rather strange to hear her sing
Her songs were all half-sung.
A dance was tiresome to her mind,
If it were not half-hopped
She never was a bonny bride
No man proposed half-popped.
She never hurried: haste, to her,
Must always be half-quick;
And when at length she took her PEG.
She moaned: 81 am half-sick"
She erred in taking medicines
The orders were half-read;
At last the undertaken called,
For Annie was half-dead
Her folks are in half-mourning now
But had she been half-wise
She would not be marooned today
Halfway to paradise.

Life Of Telephone Poles.

The average life of an untreated
seasoned pole depends much upon the
kind of timber, it's condition when
set. the condition Of the soil and the
climatic conditions, and these are all
SO variable that a definite statement
as to the average life is difficult. Most
companies can closely estimate the
average life of their poles as con-
trolled by their local conditions by re-
ferring to their pole records. The av-

ever, is apparently somewhat as fol-
