Scott's Sanity Questioned.

Jonesboro, Nov. 18.-The ju- ry in the Scott murder case, was completed yesterday afternoon, and this being completed, the court took a recess until this morning at 9 o'clock. The at- torneys in the case, asked that the jury be kept together and in charge of a deputy sheriff.
 This morning immediately af- ter the completion of the call of the docket, the state began talk ing testimony which is still in progress at the time of going to press. The remainder of the day will likely be consumed in hearing testimony, there being a large number of witnesses for both the state and the defense.
 Attorneys Sloan, Hawthorne and Roleson for the defense, had the defendant examined last night by a Commission of phy- clans, consisting of Drs. c. M. and P. W. Lutterloh, c. H. Will lett and others relative to the sanity of the defendant. They will likely put these physicians on the stand during the progress of the trial. The case is being watched with much interest, and the attorneys on either side, are making a hard fight. Hon. M. M. Stuckey of Newport, is as- siSting in the prosecution.

and the faulty enforcement o1 health laws is one which touch es the women of the country very closely. They are the housekeepers of the land and deal directly with the physical welfare of their families.
 If there are enough women who really want to protect thelr families from impure foods the chances are that sooner or later they will succeed in doing so.
 The truth is that there are very few measures for the bet torment of the community that the organized women of the lana cannot bring to pass, Ii they really make up their minds to do so.-Memphis News-Sclml- tar.

Marion Hackney Dead.

Marion Hackney, one Of the best farmers of Oil Trough bot tom, died Tuesday night from several weeks illness. The de- ceased is survived by a large family. The deceased, it is said, let a large insurance policy run out only four or five days ago. The funeral was held at Surrounded Hill Wednesday.
 Shoots Self While Hunting.
 Weiner, Nov. 18.-J. o. Brew CT of Jonesboro, while on a duck hunt, accidentally shot himself through the left shoulder this morning. He started to pull his shotgun through the blind behind which he was hiding and the hammer struck some obstacle and the gun was discharged, the entire load of shot going into and through his shoulder, tear ing away the top of it.
 Luckily the charge went through above the shoulder blade, and the wound, while painful, is merely a flesh wound and unless blood poisoning sets up should heal rapidly. He re fused medical aid and went back to the home of his son-in-laW W 10 lives in Jonesboro.

gists of the present age. His article, "Oh the Tendency of Va rieties to Part Indefinitely from the Original Type" forced Dar- win to publish his theory of nat ural selection and "the survival of the Attest" prematurely. The zones for the distribution of an imal life on the globe, as held today, were fixed by Wallace in his Geographical Distribution of Animals"
 While agreeing with Darwin in regard to the origin of spec ies, Wallace did not agree with him as to the origin of man, but held that, while mans body might have been evolved from lower species of animals, higher power intervened to be- stow on man his intellect and spiritual qualities.
 He is the great authority on the natural features of the East Indies. Socially he was a fol- lower of Robert Owen and Henry George, and an advocate of the single tax.
 Wallace is one of the group of most eminent naturalists, like Lord Kelvin, whose scientific theories allow a place for God in the world which he created. News-Scimitar.

The Fight On Impure Food.

Slavery existed not because some men were strong enough to be masters, but because oth- CTS were weak enough to be en- slaved.
 Dr. Wiley has a simple little conundrum. It is this: "Why do wolves eat sheep?" Is it be- cause the wolves are so wolfish or because the sheep are so sheepish? He says it is because the sheep are sheepish.
 Now when the people just meekly pay out their money fo1 food products which are adul, terated or impure, is it because the manufacturers are so avarl, cious or because the people are so meek?
 It doesn't matter who started the "vicious circle" it is enough to know that if the people woulc be less meek the manufacturers would not be tempted to impose upon them.

NATIONAL BANKS AND FARM
LOANS.

The Philadelphia Record criticises
provision in the new currency bill per-
hitting national banks to make loans
on real estate security because mort
cages are not quickly convertible as
sets.
II the bill permitted such loans by
all national banks the objection would
be sound. But it accords the privilege
only to country banks and not to
banks in reserve and central reserve
cities. If too, the bill permitted coun'
try banks to loan a large percentage
of their deposits on such security, the
I criticism would be good, but ii doesn't
the percentage is very small. Coun'
try banks have not the same need Of
quick assets as have city banks. Be
sides, under the bill they will be am
ply fortified by the secondary reserve
provided for.
Right to loan on real estate security
will convenience country banks tire
! mendously and improve the grade o.
security in these banks vaults. The
rule in making farm loans is to limi
I the amount of the loan TO 40 per cen
of the market value of the property
| In the average judgment of the state
real estate first mortgages are su
perior investments to all others, gov
eminent bonds, of course, excepted.
The folly of prohibiting a nationa
| bank from loaning on real estat
! security is made apparent in this j.

banker makes the loan, actually o.
the 100 acres as security, but literal
on Jones's note because he cannC
loan on real estate mortgage. Wher
Me could have best security he is RI
CURED to take inferior security.
Jones note meets the objectio
to the real estate mortgage a
being a commercial security-assun
ing Jones wants the money for con
mercial purposes-and thus a quic
asset. But clearly it is not so goo
, an asset as a mortgage would be fc
the reason that Jones might get Sc

He believed that sooner or later they

He worked for man who never
raised an employees wages if he could
help it.
He expected that his usefulness
would be discovered in good time.
he didn't go to his employer and tell
him plainly about the wonderful abil
ity he possessed.
He just went along faithfully doing
the best he could day after day and
year after year.
He noticed that other men pushed
ahead of him.
He was aware of the fact that they
had gone to headquarters and kicked.
He went on believing in the theory
that industry, faithfulness and integ

THE time has come in this coun-
try" says Senator Reed, when the
government ought to be regarded as
something besides a great goose out
of which every selfish hand is per
mitted to pluck its bunch of feathers.
/ Certainly the time has come when, if
these selfish interests appear, the
president is justified in notifying the
people that the Philistines are upon US.

make their stay more or less perma-
nent; who effect an organization and
embark on a crusade to promote or
prevent legislation by bringing pres
sure TO bear upon the legislators, or
who employ methods more reprehen-
sible.
''At its very best, the objection lies
that a lobby presents only one side OF
a case, and that if conducted skilfully
of intelligent men.
Ninety times out of a hundred q
