men rode into the town of Spring
brook, twelve miles east Of Williston,
early today and blew the safe of the
Bank of Springbrook and rode away

sions, which awakened the citizens of
the little town. 1t was hen too late
to organize resistance of make an at
tempt to capture the bandits. The
bank building, as we'll as the SAFE, was
wrecked and the total loss amounts to
evera thousands of dollars.
The country for miles about has
been appraised OF the raid, but SO far
no clew to the identity of the outlaws
has been received.

WILLISTON HAS
ACCEPTED Plan

Williston, N. ID, Oct 10.-Quick
work was made in the disposition of
the contract with the government for
electric power after the return of the
mayor from Washington. At an adj
1olrned meeting the common council
approved the measure and the docu-
ment received the signature of the
mayor. Only Aldermen Van Dyke and
Snyder were absent Ut the meeting.
The contract with the government is
now as good as closed for a special
received by Mayor Jackson from
Chief Engineer "A. p. Davis, acting d.
rector of the interior, had authorized
the execution of the contract, con-
~sequently it viii be signed by him
upon Its receipt.
Supt. j. M. Fine of the reclamation
service in this place. but who has been
in Montana for the past month, has
been here in consultation with Mr.. En-
sign. Three propositions are being
considered, namely, sink a well at the
plant, secure supply from the city or
resort to the private chemical water
plant in operation here.
It is now expected the new system
will be looked up and in operation
within thirty days.
Chief Engineer Here.
Chief Electrical Engineer Ensign OF
Washington was in the city last week
to pass upon the question of the city
supplying the irrigation plant with
water. He will decide the question
whether it will become necessary for
the government to utilize this source
for an additional water service.
Many Questions Eliminated.
Relative to the negotiations the
mayor said that many of the questions
which had held up the undertaking
for months here, were disposed of with
celebrity by, the of1cials, who readily
grasped the situation and eliminated
them without argument. In fact, the
city received a much better contract
than ever anticipated. The govern
ment officials, who are accustomed &c
negotiate similar lines Of business
on a far greater scale than was pre-
sented by the situation in Williston,
did not stop to bubble on questions
which were of trivial moment in com
plotting the transactions. There is
little question that the city has Secur-
I'd a very favorable contract.

The Little Rock
 Texarkana Road.


 Rock recently a bill was agreed on for the purpose of creating the Little Rock, Texarkana High way District. This bill has been carefully drawn by representa- tives from all tRe counties along the line and will work no hard ship on the small tax payer. It is believed that when the merits of the bill are understood, it will have few opponents, though it could scarcely be expected that every body would favor it. Near ly every movement toward ad- vancement of the comfort and convenice of the people generally has some enemies. It will re- quire tax of course. There is no way to build a good road with out money, but when we consid CT that when more than fifty millions worth of property is to be taxed and that this tax will extend over a long,period of time, the burden will be light. We have heard reports from certain sources that property would be taxed 10 cents on the dollar etc. and that the road was for exclu- sive use of automobiles and such foolish reports. These were ev- idently circulated by some one who knew nothing about the merits of the movement and sought to injure it in the begin ing.
 Such road would be worth more to Arkansas and especially to this part of Arkansas as an ad- vertisement, let alone it's conven- fence, than the same amount of money expended in any other one thing. It will affect strip of country only ten miles wide and will likely include many railroads, tram roads, telephone and tele- graph lines and gas pipe lines and with so much propery to be taxed, the rate should be smaller than the regular road tax.
 Provision is made in the bill for use of convicts and every possible latitude is given the commission CTS to make use of inexpensive methods and means of accom- D. l shing the task. It is almost certain that similar bills will be produced to provide roads from Little Rock to Ft Smith and als o to Pine Bluff. The people gener- ally coming to the front on road building and are generally be- ginning to realize that unless we do something definite, other states will be far ahead of us. Let everybody who stands for progress boost the road.

NOT LIKE MR.. sTRAUS.

The Roosevelt habit Of cOntemptuous
epithet and reckless appeal TO preju-
dice must naturally affect his ardent
worshippers. But we are sorry 10 see
Mr.. Straus so readily falling a victim
to the contagion When with the pro-
fession that he Is going To avoid a per-
sonal campaign against anybody he
permits himself to say with reference
TO Mr.. Hedges that he will not waste
his ammunition on pygmies." he
adopts language which was not looked
for from him. Mr.. Roosevelt did not
consider Mr.. Hedges a "pygmy" when
he asked him to accept high office, nor
did public opinion so consider him
when It recognized him as not only
one Of the most entertaining, but one
OF the ablest and most convincing de-
baters Of public questions In the state.

Of Mr. Hedges's nomination.
Do you believe that Barnes, who held
in the palm Of his hand a majority OF
the delegates at the Saratoga conven-
ton. would consent to the nomination
Of anybody he could not have his hands
on? I don't.
Probably Mr.. Straus is ignorant Of
the truth and has simply adopted Mr..
Roosevelfs picture Of Mr.. Barnes as
inspired--the same Barnes whom Mr.
Roosevelt kept In an important federal
Office As matter OF fact Mr.. Barnes
did not hold the convention IN the
palm Of his hand. As chairman Of the
state committee, position which Mr..
Roosevelt practically abandoned to
him after his own defeat as state

DRUMMING CHINA.

The expectation that some OF the
powers would resent the decision Of
China not 10 accept their offer Of a
Joan and would In one way or another
seek reprisals is apparently being real
lied. II Is announced that Russia is
taking the initiative In q movement
for dunning China for the immediate
payment Of the Boxer indemnities,
amounting 10 S50.000,OO0. Obviously
such a demand would be decidedly EN-
harrassing TO the already distressed
republic, requiring twice as much as
the entire proceeds of the Indepep-
dent loan which has just been nego-
fiated and which is the cause of the
provocatlon Of the powers.
The total indemnity which China
was TO pay, as agreed in 1901, was
$500 100000 due In thirty-nine equal
annual instruments on January of
each year, with interest at per cent
The demand for $5O,OOO0OO would In

now owed two years instruments. IL

THE GREAT sPELLBINDER.

President Tafts campaign for re-
election has not been one Of personal
speIbinding. His chief rivals have
taken industriously TO the stump.
Colonel Roosevelt has already crossed
and recrossed the continent and Gov
ernor Wilson has gone as far west
as Iowa and Minnesota. MIR. Taft has
spoken infreQuently and travelled lit
RE, bearing In mind the limitations put
upon his activity by his Official POSI-
ton. Yet his campaign prospers be-
cause be represents cause which
speaks for itself He has had the
powerful assistance Of the greatest Of
MI the spellbinders-the content which
accompanies marked national pros
perity.
Agitate and vcciferate as they may,
his two rivals have TO contend with the
fact that a victory for either would
operate to check the current of good
times now swelling In volume. A VIC
tory for Colonel Roosevelt would mean
a tampering all along the line with the
safeguards essential to the mainten-
ance of liberty and security. 4 victory
for Governor Wilson, on the other
hand, would make inevitable an as
sault on the existing industrial sys-
tenn, involving many disturbing changes
IN business conditions. Since 1907
times have been more or less hard and
the country is now feeling the first
\ STRINGS Of q new period Of prosperity.
\ It is therefore UP TO the voter who
? considers bis own interest and the COM
mon interest as well and is not blind
devotee Of partyism to choose between
contributing to the revival Of good
times by continuing the Taft admins
tration In power and halting the for
ward movement by helping TO elect
Roosevelt or Wilson. For any intelli-
gent citizen the choice ought not TO be
difficult. Above the clamOr Of the agi-
tators and the wreckers is heard the
convincing persuasion Of prosperity,
the greatest Of all the spellbinders-

So Governor Wilson is pleased

crafty progressive Democrats very
deeply" The independence" Of Mr..
sulzer, who for years served in the
ranks Of Croker's following and then
accented the leadership Of Murphy. is
satisfactory TO the great enemy OF
bossism. A state ticket with three
other New Workers absolutely con-
trolled by Murphy or his lieutenant,
McCooey, meets the high standards OF
the candidate nominated at Baltimore
as a protest against Murphyism.

The view he held when he commended
Tammany Hall for keeping the fires Of
liberty burning on its altar. All the
notorious corruption Of Tammany,
which made II possible for a Demo
cratic national convention TO acclaim
Mr.. Cleveland for the Tammany enc
mics he had made and for another
national convention to disqualify any
candidate who might happen 10 be
favored by Murphy. IS forgotten.
Mr.. Bryan demanded the overthrow
Of Murphy himself. Mr.. Wilson is con
tent with the miserable subterfuge of
throwing aside poor Dix, the agent,
while Murphy, the principal, IS made
stronger than ever. in that he not only
controls the Democracy IN the state
but demonstrates that Mr.. Wilson
fears him. Governor Wilson thinks
the result affords "eyery Democrat real
satisfaction" Perhaps the current will
again alternate when he sees the real
satisfaction OF "The Evening Post and
other sincere supporters who early
pinned their faith to him as man Of
straightforward courage and expected

ciple Of warfare on Murphylsm to
