OF CALIFORNIA"

In the Outlook Of February lo
anpears an article by Congressman
William Kent under the above title.
II is naturally a Mandatory article. and
the kew to the work of Governor John
son is summed up in his kicking the
Southern Pacific Company out of poll
tics"
To the Press it seems that the prog
ressjye movement loses much of its
possiple power by a failure even OF
its promoters to recognize it as one
expression of the evolutionary, not to
saw revolutionary, drift of affairs, rath-
er than as a thing apart from the
general uplift movement
Bad as have been political condl-
tions in California. and great as was
the need for improvement, the South
ern Pacific Company was as much
victim of conditions as were the peo-
pie of the state at large, and the
stockholders of that corporation have
as much to gain as other people by
the new order of things.
Itself an insurgent, progressive,
revolutionist the Press confesSes that
it does not fancy this talk of kick
ing the Southern Pacific Company or
any one else out of politics or any
thing else.
1t is true the Southern Pacific's po-
litical machine has dominated the az
fairs of the state, and that control OF
the state was in violation of all the
ideals of popular government. But
it also has been true that groups OF
politicians have for years been organ
lied from time to time to prey on
that and other corporations, by threat
ening unfavorable legislation only 10
demand blackmail.
The world advances by the avoid
ance of errors already discovered, and
the error that enslaved California was
the presence of two conflicting fac
tors, set of unscrupulous politicians
on the one hand demanding blackmail
from the corporations, and group, OF
corporations, partly in self defense
and partly as an aggressive force,
seeking their own interests.
The time was ripe to correct the
error. but the way to correct it is to
be just to all parties, and not to
talk of kicking" any OF them out OF
government.
The Press can see as plainly as
any the evil of corporate control of
government, as we'll, as its twin evil
of boss control of politics, but it also
can see that one of the very big fac.
tors in the building of California has
been the Southern Pacific Company
whose interests, after all, have been
closely identified with the general
prosperity of the state.
California had reached the period
in evolution when it was necessary
TO overthrow the power of the bosses
and of the corporations, in the same
way and for the same reason that the
English commons overcame the power
of the barons, the Germans maintained
their freedom against the Romans, the
French overthrow the monarchy and
China has established republic. 1t
was in accordance with the human in
stinct that demands liberty and fair
ness.
Not in bitterness of denunciation,
but in sanity and determination to
build on lines conducive to the welfare

business houses would be more con- yeniently accessible, and whatever proves a convenience to the shopper certainly ought to accrue To the in- terests Of the street car company.
 There are many fraternal organiza- tions using lodge rooms in this loop and the accommodation of their members means increased revenue All the occupants of offices. all the employees in all of the business and public buildings embraced in this loop would not only appreciate this con- Venence, but their patronage would add 10 the earnings of the street rail- way company materially in the course of a year.

 The Graphic has tried 10 get the general trend of opinion on this movement and there seems to he q very earnest desire in all parts of the business district for the loop.
 We believe the company desires to do what is hest for the greatest num- ber provided this can he done with out detriment to it's revenue.

THE STREET CAR LOOP.

The cry for the street car loop around Main, Barraque and Walnut streets grows louder each day The great need for this public improve ment on the part of the street car company is growing more and more apparent because of increased busi ness and the enlarged population of Pine Bluff.
 The property owners. storekeeners city and county officials and various others who frequent the northern part of the business center are urging the building of the street ear loop.
 The street car line should he re- constructed that proper aeeemmeda- ton will be given the present. princi- pal business district of the city. At least seventy-five per cent of the business district of Pine Bluff is north of Third avenue and is the district which should be considered
 If there is any douht on the part Of the street car company that the suggested improvement will not be paying investment to the company, aside from the benefit and conven- fence to the general public and the consideration of the principal retail financial. official and business dis trict the following reasons ought to convince the officials of The Pine Bluff Company that it will be even better than a paying investment, for 1t will encourage the public to patronize the street railway and incidentally win favor for it through efficient and prompt service, besides adding at least ten per cent if not more. to it's ! revenues
 All patrons, no matter from what section of the city, would if this loop was built, be enabled to go direct to any theater, to the Postoffice, to thel office of the Pine Bluff Natural Gas Conpany, all popular and necessary points for patrons, without transfer And 1t has been demonstrated that transfers are so disagreeable that many people prefer to walk rather than use stilelu.

large attendance at its closing festival
last evening and the matinee yester-
day afternoon. The sacred cantata, "Th.
Seven Last Words of Christ" was rem
dered last evening. BY request there
was no applause until the cantata was
finished but then there was loud and
long appreciation of the work of the
artists. The cantata contained solos for
soprano, tenor and baritone, with much
chorus work.
Miss Florence milford. contralto OF
the Metropolitan opera house, who is
to teach vocal music in the summer
school at the university of Vermont

felt sure the proceeds of the festival
will be sufficient to guarantee another
