 Little Rock, Dec. 19.-The State Banking Department has been advised that the National Mercantile Company of Vancou- yer, B. C., is engaged in selling loan contracts in large blocks to a certain party in Arkansas, who is re-selling them to oth- CTS in the state. The company has so far failed and refused to comply with the Blue Sky law, and the Bank Commissioner, John M. Davis, warns those pur- chasing these contracts that they are doing so at their own risk. The Banking Department is desirous of obtaining the name of the party buying and re-selling these contracts in vlo- lation of the law.

Should Genius Starve?

Certain newspapers cast doubt upon the genius of Richard Strauss, and question the artis- tic merit of his "Rosenkavilier" :, for no other reason than that he had the good sense to drive a profitable bargain for it's produc- tion in this country.
 In the vulgar mind there is some mysterious association be- tween genius and squalor. The connection is not necessary nor even usual.
 Schiller lived, indeed in small flat, but Goethe in a mansion.
 Shakespeare died a rich man, also leaving documentary proof that when he was owed a small sum of money he sued for it.
 Voltaire earned and left a great fortune.
 Wagner died a well-to-do man, bequeathing properties of great value to his widow and children. Yet the poetry of the Midsum- mer Nights Dream is not the less beautiful because of this. Lord Beaconsfield, though a rich man, through the fortune and benevolence of his wife, fought doggedly with his pub fishers for the price that they were to pay for his "Endymion" his last and almost weakest nov el. He made them pay the hand some sum of $1O,000. Who has ever found that Benjamin Dis

Usually when a writer starts off with a lot of alliteration, al lusions and synonyms it is an in- dication that he has nothing of importance to follow up with, but the Newton County Times finally manages to bring out a worthy thought at the close of the following flight: "You may schedule the merchant, choke your best preacher to death on big hunk of free salvation; use that wart on your neck for col lar button; stop talking for the conservation of your false teeth stop your clock at night to pre- vent half the depreciation of the movement; cross your bees with fref1ies so that they can work both day and night; play hockey with the devil and the tax collector; flirt with the grim reaper death; but whether rich or poor, white or black, quadroon, octoroon, Chinese, Ja- panese or Indian, this bad road toll will positively get you com- ing and going" "-Russellville Courier Democrat.
