i'resident-elect Woodrow Wilson recently said that he favors pardon bcaJ~d, rather than leave the matter cs deciding the fate of men imprison- cd with one man. It is worrysome to tic one man and oft-times results ill a miscarriage of justice. The pardon board is what Arkansas needs and tho way convicts have been liberated lately, We would say that it needs ore badly.

< Luckily there were no serious fires during the recent Christmas celebrations, in which thousands of dollars went up in fireworks. It was the first time in the history of Pine Blsff, so far as the oldest inhabitant can remember, that there was no mayors proclamation, putting a ban on the reckless use of explosives.

PROSTATE form of Col. j. Il. Handlan.

an awful lonesomeness in the last
remnant OF the once militant McGraw
Democracy in West Virginia. Col.
Handlan made the fight for Woodrow

able TO cope with the allied forces of
the Watson-Chilton combine and the
sentiment for Champ Clark in the
First district. It seems to be prac.
tically assured that West Virginia
will send To Baltimore a delegation
favorable to Champ Clark. At the
same time it will be a delegation
which G.. W. Watson and ". r Chiffon
will control when they want it.

AFTER LoRIMER, WATSON AND


According to the poll Of the senate
recently taken. Lorimer will be ousted
by a vote of - TO 81. This is a con-
sumation devoutly to be wished. This
will end a long drawn out fight. and
cleanse the United States senate Of
the presence Of a man whose title to
a seat undoubtedly depended entirely
upon ~purchaseable and purchased
votes. With Lorimer out of the way.
the next step should be to consider
the cases OF c. W. Watson and w. Z.
Chiffon. Lorimer's title to his seat
was vitiated by the purchase of ten
votes. No one who is familiar with
the disgraceful corruption of the
Democratic caucus in West Virginia
in 1911. believes that fewer than ten
legislators were corrupted in order to
bring about the nomination OF c. W.
Watson and W. r. Chiffon. The evil
dence OF the lavish use OF money
abounded on every side. Men who
had pledged themselves repeatedly to
vote for John T. McGraw. underwent
conversion owe night. The slime OF
the dollar dripped from the very
clothes OF more than half OF the Demo
cratic caucus.
BY its action in the case OF Sen
ator Stephenson. the United States
senate has indicated that the title to
a seat in the senate may be disputed
on ccount OF corruption in primary
or caucu as we'll as in the legislative
vote. The duty of This state to de-
mand an investigation Of the caucus
scandal is clear and emphatic. Some
time ago Governor Glasscock an.
nounced voluntarily his assumption of
this duty. II he fails in it. others
should be found to take it up.

FRESHMEN TRIMMED

Yesterday afternoon the Freshmen
of Earlham College went down in de-
feat before the Sophomore team by the
close score of to 5. The game was
played on Reid Field through driz-
zling rain which accounted for a >Lm-
Der of the errors made. The contest
was exciting throughout, the game be-
ing a tie until Jones brought in the
winning run in the last inning after a
two base hit to deep right field, fol
lowed by a stolen base and a wild
pitch. Features of the game were the
base running of Brownell, the work be.
hind the bat of Kinnard, and the
pitching of Lamb, who struck out the
only three men facing him in the last
inning. Batteries were: Sophomores
Lamb and Wolf: Freshmen, Winslow
Brownell and kinnard This is the
second year in which the Freshmen
and Sophomore classes have met on
the diamond and the popularity which
these contests have gained among the
students promises fair to make this ar
annual event in the athletic calendar
of the College.
