The City Council has passed an or dinance, which became effective yes- terday, requiring all dog owners to muzzle their dogs during the summer months and already many of the ami malls have their mugs in harness or behind small wire muzzles. This or dinance is for the safety and health of the public and should be observed to the letter. There arc some per- sons in the city, however, who may fail to comply with the order of the council and they will be called upon to suffer the consequences, for their dogs will be shot and killed by police officers.

It is an Ark ansas institution, owned and operat- ed by Arkansas people. the off cers and directors of the company being mostly Pine Bluff business men and hankers, who have been we'll known to the people of this state for years, as honorable and efficient busi- ness men. The success of the pack ing company is assured with such men at the head of it, and with the cooperation of the merchants and planters throughout the country.

It gives us a market for our live stock, means more money in each merch- ants and planters hands and means the direct increase in value of every acre of farm land in this community. Dumas Democrat.

DEMOCRATS BE CAREFUL.

Within three weeks the Republican party will have candidate in the field to succeed William Howard Taft as president of the United States. A few days after the Republicans choose their standard bearer the Democrats at Baltimore will select a candidate for the highest office in the land.
 It is likely,that the Chicago conven- ton will result in a bolt by adherents of either President Taft or Colonel Roosevelt, says the Texarkana Four States Press If Roosevelt controls the convention, which appears very likely at this time, despite President Tafts bold assertions to the contrary, it is almost certain that the support CTS of the genial Ohioan will with draw from the convention and create a third party, or if President Taft is renominated it is surer that the Roosevelt men will oganize a Pro- gressive Republican party.
 The ranks of the c. o. P. are now badly split, more so than in many years. Since the Democrats came ln- io control of the lower House of Con- sress the nation has heen watching their law making activities. Not since Elevelands first administration has the minority party had such an eX" eellent opportunity, to name a man who can carry the party to victory. Neither Gov. Wilson, Speaker Clark, Gov.

The Graphic believes in having a head to every city depart ment and in standing by them, but it cannot find fault with the Fire Com mittee for reinstating Afford, espe- cially after there seemed to have been no good reasons for his dismis- sal. The council should not permit Chief Breiner to reduce Driver Afford to rear wagon man., which re- duces his salary ten dollars. month. It should insist on Chief Breiner placing Afford back in his old posi- tion. If Afford was guilty of insub- ordination or misconduct of any kind that merited his resignation, he should be fired If he has not been guilty of the charges that were preferred against him by Chief Breiner, which the committee holds were not well founded, then he should be treated fair by his superior officer and per- mitted to remain in the Department iii the capacity of driver.
