viting for even tue homeless. not to mention the sick paupers who's were forced to go there for treatment
 In this age of advanced civilization it is disgrace and shame fol a county to have within it's confines county institution that presents such an unsightly appearance. Thousands of dollars have been spent in past years on the county hospital. without any real results along the line of i'm provement Judge Philpot feels that the county needs 8 new hospital and should have it without delay. He has cut down the expenses there as best he could and by personal attention has brought the present quarters up to as good condition as possible, under the c circumstances.
 Now Judge Philpot intends to give the poor county hospital that will be credit to the citizenship and one that will be in keeping with the usual liberal charity of cur people The present site is to be sold as soon as possible and a new site purchased. 
 The commission is to let the contract for the building of hospital build ing that will give comfort and pro- rection to the pooI unfortunates who are to be sent here. Fre1ue ntly s'rangeIs, people of refinement who have become Financially embarrassed are sent to the county hospital Aere. The county should care for them in a manner that should not brng criti- cism upon it. Under the plan outln. ed by Count, Judge Philpot the new county hospital will not 9nlyk l ulOHuuGul Io Ills dulDlulSlfHtI tIOH a- county and probate judge, but one O. which tae people of this county might feel proud.

NATIONAL COMMISSION < <
 SPREADS WHITfWASH
Win Not Allow Clubs to Sell Tick cts
 to Another Worlds Series.

Cincinnati, Jan. 5.-The report of the National commission of its in vestigation of the ticket scaIping evil during the worlds series of 1911 amounted to clear whitewash of the whole affair.
 The commission completely exor- erated club owners and regular of- ficers of both clubs. Whatever tick cts found their way into the hands of spectators, declares the commits sion, was through methods best known to those engaged in the busi- ness of speculating in tickets. The supreme baseball body in fact con- mends the New York club officials for employing detectives to watch their employees prior, during and af- ter the sale of tickets The commits sion modestly admits it made a se- rioqls mastake when 1t allowed clubs to sell tickets for the series and promises never to be so naughty again.

SUBSCRIPTION PRICK. Delivered By Carrier.
THE NEW COUNTY HOSPITAL.

Judge Philpot, county and probate judge, has named a commission to sell the present county hospital and poor farm and purchase a new site and es- sablish a more modern and suitable in ttitution, where the poor unfortunates of the county may be properly carsd for. In naming the commission which was authorized by ule jetfet- son County Levying Court, Judge Phil pot plans to make the county hospital self-sustaining and at the same time . hopes to encourage poultry and stock raising and truck farming and give the county useful and beneficial demon stration farm.
 But first of all Judge Philpot has in view the care of the paupers of the county. At the last meeting of the Levying Court 1t was shown that the present quarters at the county hospi. tai were not only unsanitary, but un- fit for use in every way. The place . not equipped with the proper sew craze system and the way 1t has been kept. despite the efforts of Judge Phil { pot to maintain a good sanitary con- dition there. made it any thing but in-

This on the word of Gen. eral Manager Frank Barnes, who came in yesterday direct from Chi- cago. All of the great stables rep resented at the St. Louis, Chicago and New York shows will be here, and $7,500 in purses have already been offered. More money will be contested for in Hot Springs chan either St. Louis, Chicago or New York have ever hung up.
 ,Mr. Barnes said yesterday
 ssFrive cars of horses have already been arranged for out of Chicago, and Miss Lula Long, Kansas City's famous horsewoman, informs me that sfpe will bring car of twelve of her best horses. Alfred Vanderbilt of New York, Robert Mccormack Of Chicago, Judge Moore of Chicago, Mort Cohn of Louisville, Fred Pabst of Milwaukee, Adolphus Bush of St. Louis, Buchanan & Son of Chicago. and a long list of the most nota- hle stables in America will be repre- sented There will be more show horses at this horse show than have ever come South before.

mission took up the matter. The Coas-. mission did make a ruling that was partially favorable to the capital city, but did not change the schedule os the train to such an extent that 4 would have tendency to injure tbs Pine Bluff merchants. The Commits sion fixed the schedule so as to have the Pine Bluff and Western train leave this city in the afternoon at 5:ss o'clock, instead of 6 o'clock, as here- tofore. This will give passengers m opportunity to take the Rock Isla Id train into Little Rock from Benton if they prefer to go there rather than lay over at Benton for two hours. The Little Rock newspaper correspondents and the Little Rock papers originally reported the new schedule as being unfavorable to Pine Bluff.

HONOLULU MAY HEAR Miss Phoebe ARLEI#H EARPISI

Honolulu music lovers may have an
opportunity, later this year. of hear
ing Miss Phoebe Arlcigh, the youn"
harpist who has gone so far toward
winning y name among the best h1rn
players of tho world. She with her
teacher, Miss Maud Morgan are ar
angling series of concerts to be Civ
N in the Western States. m an at
Tempt Is being made To iuclude IIunD-
lulu IN the Itinerary.
During the past year Miss hrlcigh
has appeared at number of concerts
given in New York an has received
very complimentary mention 70" her
musical ability after each event. She
spent the greater part of her early
girlhOOd in Honolulu, where she still
has many laCquaintances and friends
as II Is only few years ago that She
left here with her father, a retired Hn'
nOlulu business man, to make hel
home in New York.
Some time after going East she en-
rolled as a pupil of Miss Morgan, the
harp Her mastery of this instrument
Is shown by the comments of the mu-
steal critics of the New York papers.
After she had played with Miss Nor
gan and other pupils at concert ar
ranged by Mrs. VIM. X. Vanderbilt as
a benefit for mission society in New
York, the New York Press made the
following comment:
Beyond a doubt, the majority Of
he women prescnt-therc were only
few mon enjoyed to its fullest a
really remarkable performance. The
harp Is an instrument so seldom
heard in solo music, there was dc O..
liGhtiul novelty in discovering il has
powers as sure as those of Orpheus'
Tyre. And the eye was almost as well
served as the ear. by the spectacle OF
Miss Morgan and the four whitC-rObed
maids bending dainlily over the big
gildcd instruments.
There were ten numbers on the
program. The sorrowful strains
Of the 'Minstrels Lament by Thorn
as, gave Miss Phoebe Areigh, eldest
IF Miss Morgan's quartet, her chance
to convince the 400 Of the harp's me-
lodious message"
The New York American was less
reserved but not so definite in its COM
plimcnt of Miss Arleigh's playing:
zone only had to listen TO the Min
strels Lament arranged from Il
Welsh song to imagine some bard
would walk into the great Vanderbilt
banquet hall ana tell the Il DRY Of the
big stained-glass window at one end
of the apartment, the meeting of Her

France on the Field of the Cloth OF

SAM
Successfully Fights Disease
in Philippine Possessions
of This Country.

MoHoNK LAKE. n. y. Oct. 90
Colonel L. NJ. Maus. medical CORPS
Unlsad States Army, delivered an ad.
dress here before the Laks Momopk
Conference of Friends of the Indian
and Other Dependent Peoples His
subject was Sanitary Conditions in
the Philippines" and he said in part:
Little attention was paid to san
itation by the Spanish authorities
during their control, and Manila at
the date of the American invasion re-
sembled European cities in the six.
teenth century. Health matters as
late as 1898 were administered By a
thlrd-class official. one of whose prIn-
cipal duties was collecting fees for
death certificates.
The archipelago was frequently
visited by Aslat.c cholera, which
swept off hundreds of thousands Of
the natives. and it is said that in 1888
three thousand of the Inhabitants died
daily in Manila during the epidemic.
The habit of the natives Of eating
with their fingers out of common
family tray or bowl was great fac
tor in spreading disease.
Soon after the arrival Of the Amer.
leans, municipal, provincial and in
sular boards of health were estab-
llshed, and health laws passed. Vac
cination against smallpox was made
compulsory. and over 100000 OF the
inhabitants were vacclnated A cen
SIS was made Of the lepers of the IS
lands, leper colony established and
their segregation effected. Bubonic
plague was present in Manila in 1900.
A crusade was inaugurated against
the rats of the city In 1901, and hun
dreds OF thousands of rats were
killed. The dead rats were labeled
and sent to the labratory for msro-
scopical examination, with the num-
Der Of the house from which they
were obtained. All premises on which
diseased rats we're found were closed
for occupancy until disinfected and
put into habitable condition. BY this
means several thousands of the old
stone houses were placed in sanitary
condition.
One of the most productive causes
of disease formerly was a bad water
supply. taken from surface wells
which were badly contaminated with
amoeba and other parasites. To rem
edy this artisan wells haiye been
driven down throughout the islands,
and now parasitical and intestinal
diseases are rapidly disappearing.

TROUBLE is over
now At DOROTHY
Miners Go Back to Work at
tht Wages. Paid Before
the Strike.

CHARLESTON. Oct. rs - Proba-
bly, 1000 miners are effected by an
understanding arrived at between
Representatives of the miners and
the representatives OF the Four
State Coal Company at Dorothy,
Raleigh county. 1t required but a
few minutes to settle the trouble at
Dorothy when the leaders who urged
the miners to quit work accepted the
offer OF the coal company to go to
the camp and inspect conditions.
The only thing the miners could
ask for was a check weigman and
that was instantly granted.
The miners of the Four States
Coal Company have always received
from twenty-five to twenty-five per
cent above the union wages in the
union district adjoining, while
mining is also much easier. The
men returned to work at the old
price without recognition of the
union. Four or FIVE hundred men
who have been living in the aban-
doned shacks of a lumber camp near
Dorothy, are now returning to their
modern houses equipped with cleo
trio lights, bath rooms, hot and cold
water and sanitary conditions not
surpassed in any city and at rents
that the miners have always recog-
nized as remarkable.
The settlement at Dorothy where
mine guards had never been en-
ployed will settle the differences al
the mines near there.
The solvay Golfers Company al
Kingston posted notices. to change
from yardage to tonnage as a meth.
cd OF pay. Several hundred men qui;
work yesterday. 1t is expected, how
ever, the differences will be settled
within day or two. This mine is
also ona OF the better class.

DAVIS GOES THE ENTIRE limit

John Daviss said in speech at warwood a suburb
Of Wheeling this:
into this country they cannot affect any American manu-
facturer, no matter at what cost they enter"
This statement nonumentaly incorrect that it is
hard to believe that such practicabe theorist
Mr. Davis would be deaf, dumb and blind to TRUTH
that written on the skies by the black smoke which rolls
from the chmneys Of tin plate and other mills of his dis
ric which sprung from the womb Of Protection and have
been reared and nourshed by the unremittng application
Of that great economic principle
Not only would free trade in tin plate wipe out great
industry which Protection has created and built up this
country but lowering of the tariff without regard to the
difference in the cost Of production here and
rate as Mr. Davis voted for-woud close down many
mills and force the men in the mills that would be tried to
be kept running to accept substantial reduction in
wages.
Tin plate is product that runs up against foreign
competition and would not have chance in thousand
of surviving handed struggle with the much cheap
erproduced product Of Wales if the protection principle
was eliminated from the tariff rates upon it.
Why? The following comparison Of wages paid to the
workers in this industry tells the reason why:

ceiyed the following dispatch from
X. Q. Montague, Republican chair
man in Hampshire county, sent from
Romney:
Although this is Democratic
stronghold Auditor Darst and w. q.
conley addressed meeting here
Wednesday night which was quite
as large as that to which W. n.
Thompson spoke and contained
more voters. Mr.. Darst, in his inim-
liable way, nailed one Democratic
campaign lie after another, backing
his statement with records and fig
ures. The applause from the fair
minded people of this town was lib
eral and hearty.
"Mr. conley quoted Congressman
Browns record and Woodrow Will
sons account of the Cleveland panic
in manner that set the Hampshire
county farmers to thinking as they
have not thought before in this
campaign"
This is not the first favorable re.
port received from Democratic coun-
ties by the Republican campaign
managers here.
In the Tenth senatorial district
Indications areefavorable to the cleo.
ton OF G. W. Hays, an Independent
Democrat, who is running on three
tickets against Fred Fox, Baltimore
and Ohio railroad attorney and a
Watson choice, for the state senate.
Hays is endorsed by the Republicans
and the Progressives, and is stalking
his success on his scratching denunci-
alton of the Watson, Chiffon and
MacCorkle machine and It's meth
DDS. This district. while Demo-
cratic Gibraltar heretofore, looks
like it is going for Hays this time.
The sentiment against the Gold Dust
Twins and their methods is at a
Wh'te neat.
In Jefferson county, another Dem
ocratic county, it looks like c. NJ
Wetzel, speaker of the House OF
Delegates. will lose to Editor Mus
ser, of the Independent. Wetzel's
sell-out TO the Watson-Chilton
crowd will be responsible for his de,
feat. Two years ago he ran 200
votes behind his ticket.
In Greebrier county, John Dice is
again trying to be elected to the
House of Delegates Greenbrier
was IN anti-Watson county, but Dice
could not Withstand the influence
and he betrayed the sentiment of his
constituents. His own party is af.
ter him and it looks like it will get
his political scalp.
In the few counties where there
are men who sold out to the Watson
MacCorkle gang, the Demo
Gratis are badly split as to them and
their hopes of getting sent back to
Charleston are very slim.

SCREWS.
Applied by the Hog Combine
in a Way to Accomplish
Its Unholy Aim.

And the power of organized wealth
was brought to bear to attain their
ends. This is not to say that there
was open bribery or any direct attempt
TO purchase the votes of legislators.
There has been gossip to that effect,
but 1t has always been of an indirect
nature and Of such impossibility Of
confirmation that the charges--if they
may be termed such-that have been
made are not yet considered SER
iously. But the supporters of the
Watson Chiffon combination have
not been adverse to putting the
screws" in business way to men
whose support and who they thought
they could squeeze into supporting
them or at least into remaining
neutral between them and strong OPP
posing candidates. They did not al
ways succeed It is said, but in some
instances their efforts brought the
desired results. And promises of
future favors have been also efficac-
ious in bringing the combination pop
ular support.
1t is, however. hardly fair to attri-
butte their whole success to these
methods. They had splendid work
ing organization, comprising some
of the best and most incorrupttble
Democrats OF the State They had in
addition the benefit of political geo.
graphy. With candidate in either
end OF the state. They had, too. the
benefit of the Chiffon organization
which has been all powerful in the
