Statue rhat sprane Up in Night.

In London, where one of the most lrxuriant and beautiful parks ill tho world, the Kensington Gardens. is a vast playground for children, the lair ies own month of May was celebrated this year with rare gift. "A statue of Peter Pan, the boy who would not grow up, prettily Hitting OH an ancient trce-trunk and blowing hiB pipe, which brings the birds and squirrels and field mice out to listen, was set up in g single night and when the little children came next day to play they
 believed that the beautiful image Of ''the little boy who plays with them at make-believe was left by the fairy folk themselves. And who would be

Just at tho time .wfH n this country Is beginning to strr4 gle with the problem of -husband5 lg its forest re- sources, of protecti'o it's mountain slopes, and of irH rowing the water ways, it is inter .e,ting to know that the Japanese fIa,.e successfully at tackled the sa ne problem, before the land suffered / severely from the evil effects follc s1ng deforestation. The far-sighted people of Nippon have foreseen r Ae results of the destruction of their extensive mountain forests, and ha e safeguarded themselves by placing all of these under government contrf j.
 T 70 practice of forestry has been ca Tied on in Japan for longer time t lan yn any other country. For 1.200
 years the people of Japan have been .ptanting and growing forests, with 2 success that has been little short of marvellous. Under careful manage
 ment, the Japanese forests yield very high financial returns. This high
 yield is only made possible by the l close utilization of every bit of the tree 50 that scarcely. a twig is vast ed. and by the improvement of the growth of their forests by carefully
 conducted thinning and tending. The woods gre first thinned at the age of , thirteen years, and then every five
 years atser that up to the time of the l final harvest, at 120 years.

A LETTER
To The Citizens of N0nr0 e
 County

In meeting recently held in Clarendon Ark. by the Socialist and Democrats of Monroe count Y, was endorsed, and nominat- ed, on the Socialist ticket to op- pose Mir. Jas. Engel, for clerk of Monroe county, in the general election in September. The news came to me as a thunder bolt as no one had mentioned my endorsement on the above or any other ticket to oppose MT. Engel. and in view of the above fact, l had never given this matter a thought.
 Now I wish to state that l am not familiar with the socialist views of politics. and could not contientiously say that am a socialist. 1 have always voted the Democrat ticket in my county heretofore, but have always re- served the right that l think every true citizen should, to sup port the nominee in the general election or turn them down. l have and do stand firm for the 1 MAN that holds an office who linteligently. industrously, and economically manages the office 1 he holds.

county has, in electing a citizen of their county to fill their im- portant offices, who does not direct the business of that office as the citizens see fit, or as the law requires, should be dis charged by the citizens that elect them regardless of politics. My veiws in politics are the same as in other business, and when man has been given an office and entrusted by the citi- zens to discharge the business according to law, he should be discharged from office the same as an employe of the individual or corporations.
 In my opinion great deal of the dissatisfaction being viewed by the citizens of Monroe county at this time, is due to politics, and the political pull that seems to be following up each primary election. In the first place there is to great sum of money being spent by the candidates in can wasting the county in the prl- mary election.

TO HIS DISGRACE

TIE press reports of Tuesday which tell of Ex-Pres. J. N. 1lli- man of the Arkansas State uni- versity engaging in rough ana tumble fight on the streets ol Fayetteville, is just a little pit disgraceful to the man.
 Tillman, who has been at the head of the State University for several years. was recently let outof the place and saw fit to publish a few days ago a lengthy ratification article. His acts of precipitating a rough and tum- ble fight on the public streets of the University City will give him seeasioa fer another vindication arti.ie.
 The trouble is said to have been caused by newspaperman haV- ing criticised Mir. Tillman's son for having, as a prosecuting at torney, prosecuted other young men for gambling while he at the same time was indulging Tn the same unlawful act. Mir. Tlllman seems to have been enraged be- cause the publication reflected on his family name.
 Such a procedure might not have appeared 50 bad for the or. dinary kind of man but for a man who has beer at the head or a great university for years and himself a sworn officer of the law. licensed attorney, 1t doesn t look good at all. A man who can't control himself under such little tests, isn't the kind of a man to control others and 1t lsn [ any wonder that the board or control saw fit to make a change of university presidents.

 NOT PARTICIPATE
Say They Have Nothing to Gain By Engaging In Cor
 dova Fight

It is believed the voting af the Republican primaries on Wcdncs- day at the old city fire hall will be confined to the ticket put up by the Orr Republicans. There is little prospect of a contest to elect delegates to the Cordova cOnvcn- tion i'll opposition to the faction of the party under which the pri- marics will be held.
 The independent Republicans of Valdez dominate the local situa- ton and have expressed them selves as adverse to taking part m the CordOva convention by par tIcipating in the primaries. Many Of them express the wish for a united Republican party in Alaska but they dD not wish to bc bound Tn any manner tO support the wing of the party which threatens to control the COrdOva convention. A fight is on between the Shack lefOrd and anti-Shacklcford fol- lowers and the independents are inclined to let them settle their differences among themselves. They say they have nothing to gain by participating in the con- vention and will be free to endorse it's nominee for delegate or op- pose him as they have done in the past.
