Arlington Joseph SpaHlding

Arlington, Joseph Spauding aged 30
years, days, died June 9th, at the
home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Thales Spaulding of Moscow. All
who knew this young man found him
to be very trustworthy and one who
seemed to win friends wherever he
went. During the few years of his
life he was very successful in manag-
ing crews of men in the woods and
on the drive. He took a deep inter
est in this work until nearly three
years ago. when he was compelled to
leave the work and the boys" whom
ne wanted to be with, and give him
self up to that awful disease-tuber-
culosis of the lungs. He was very
patient and hopeful during the years
and months of his illness but he
failed gradually until two months ago
when he took his bed for the last
time. Everything that was possible
was done for his comfort and all
hoped for his recovery, but all human
help failed. When his nurse, Kath-
crime Crowley who cared for him SO
faithfully for the last year, told him
what she feared the end would be,
he said q have been thinking of that
l have expected it but am not afraid
to die. The only thing that grieves
me is to leave my mother and father,
for they are old and it will cause
them too much sorrow"
He leaves besides his father and
mother, three brothers and one sis
ter who have the sympathy of the
entire community, as was shown by
the beautiful floral offerings.

much the same conditions exist with
regard to many other products affect
ed by the tariff.
The fact is, though worthy Of our
attention, the subject is too vast for US
to comprehend. Like a ball too large
for the hand to hold. the tariff escapes
our grasp, confuses and eludes our
reason. This discussion did not pur-

FOX CASE TODAY.

The preliminary hearing of tine men charged with having robbed Frank Fox. visitor, out of $20,000, will be called today It will probable be said in their behalf that sentiment here is against them.
 That is not true
 Sentiment in Hot Springs demands that the law be enforced. If that covers a prejudice against the ac- cused men, let them make the most of 1t.
 The aroused" sentiment is not aroused in revenge. It is merely the awakening of sentiment that had been dormant and sleeping. The advantage of a dormant sentiment, and when that sentiment is alert for law enforcement, it is miscalled aroused"
 There had been q carnival of rob bery in Hot Springs. Many cases are coming to light where our visitors had been robbed. Thieves pre-empted our resort patronage They came here to steal tine money of our visi- tors before we could get it through 
 honest and legitimate avenues. And 1t may develop that they had co operation among residents of this city.

PERJURY IN COURT.

With amazing frankness Wednes- day young man went on the witness stand In circuit court. where another was on trial for his life. and offered evidence, which if believed by the jury, would have brought in yer dict against sthe accused.
 Yesterday morning in the same witness chair the same accusing wit ness went on the stand and swore that all he had said before was un- true.
 The only excuse the self confessed perjuror could offer was that it was suggested" to ulim what the state wanted of him. and that he believed if he swore falsely for the state he would be helped to get out of lar ceny charge against him.
 The incident serves as an exam pie of how little consideration is giv- en the seriousness of an oath in our courts. But short while ago we cited various instances of perjury
 To swear falsely in court is a speci- fic crime, but 1t is also contempt of court. Prosecutions for perjury should be more frequent. The peo- pie should be convinced that to swear falsely in a court is serious thing.
 Men accustomed to being in touch with crime are safe behind bulwark of perjury. They see perjury every day and they are smart enough to know that If perjury serves others, it will serve them. Besides, they have the money to pay for perjury. and the influence to get such evidence.
 When a witness goes on the stand in any case he should be forced to either tell all the truth, as he swears he will do, or to swear so falsely and so specifically false that there will be left behind his tissue of lies a proper foundation for perjury ac- tlnn.
