Arkansas must not be stlngy VIII
the charitable institutions OF the
State; while we build magnificent
capitol and provide for roads ana
highways that will be credit to
the State, we must look after the
unfortunate, whose power OF speech
or hearing or sight has been taken
from them, and whose reason mas
been dethroned. The bill to appro-
pirate the money for the deaf ana
blind should not pass without the
amendment to provide clothes and
transportation for those who are too
poor to buy clothing and pay rail-
road fare. And if need be, let a
small tax be levied to build an and
mex to the asylum or build another
asylum at some other place in the
State. But, no matter what else
suffers, and no matter what else
waits, the Man of Galilee, who as
ured us that a cup of cold water
would not miss its reward, was equal
y emphatic in the declaration that
we failed to provide the cup of
7ater we would have a different
ort of reward. We owe it to the
Unfortunate and we owe it to our
slyes for the good name Of Arkan-

Steal Indictments

Mammoth Spring, Ark, Feb. q.
The Office of Prosecuting Attor-
neyJ. D. Brooks, of Oregon county,
No., which adjoins this county on
sfle north, was entered last night by
unknown parties who relieved the
state of all the indictments found
and returned by the grand jury
which had just adjourned. All the
documents pertaining to tie crimin-
al docket of the circuit court were
taken. No clue has been found as
yet to the miscreants.
This renders the whole term of
court void except as to the expense,
which will amount to something less
than $1,000. 1t is likely w. N.
Evans, who is judge of the circuit,
will call an extra session at once.

sidewalks has been mispent, neith-
er do we believe majority of our
citizens think so. The work that
has been put down is permanent
and the great expense of repair
work will not have to be met in
the future. If the work is allowed
to continle as it has commenced it
will be a matter of only few years
until we will have good, substantial
walks all over town. Almost one
half of the towns revenue every
year is spent in repairing the ole
ramshackled walks, and we hav,
had no walks either.
