kansas for the past P years. Four years ago he started the Arkansas on Wheels Train and it is no wonder that he delights in presenting these figures and facts. At recent public address in Chicago. w. R. Leighton, he of Saturday Evening Post fame, told of the wonderful increase in Arkansas land values. He spoke of the increase in values being IA per cent. during the 10 years from 1890 to 1900, and then presented the other statistics. showing the gain for 10 years, 1900 to 1910 was 1886, he said this enorm- ors increase occurred almost entirely during the past three years
 Scarcely a day goes by that there is not such evidences as the above statement of Mr. Leighton. showing that Arkansas is coming and coming fast during the past three or four years. and hence it is, of course, mat ter of real pleasure to the ARGUS man that he should be able to believe that his boosting has not been in vain.

WHAT IS LAW?
Whence Has It Descended and What
 Is the Lesson 1t Teaches?

Whence Has 1t Descended and What
 Is the Lesson It Teaches?
 "Of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil thou shalt not eat"
 This is the first law of which we
 have record, though of the results of law antedating this the Armament is
 full: law inimitable, exact and per fectly balanced; law directing, appre- hensive, prohibitive. punative and com pensatory, appending reward or pen alty as fixed as the God-head that de-
 signed them The first recorded law
 was broken, the arrest was sure, the
 judgment justice tempered with mer- cy, the execution peremptory and
 prompt The result was the greatest
 drama of which even archangelic
 minds could conceive. of which the
 last act is yet unseen.
 Since then the world has known
 the law giver, the court and its off cers, opposing advocates, witnesses,
 juries, acquittal, convictions and exc cutions. From the very nature of the
 profession which has grown aut of
 the first recorded law and- dts vala- Jlon. to it has inured a dignity at tached to no other profession, and in it's ranks have served and on it's high seats of justice have sat sages the most profound, with minds the most evenly balanced, lives of the greatest purity and judgments of the most nn- swerving honesty and equity that have been given to any profession, not excepting the priest or the. physi- clan.
 These thoughts were brought to mind during brief conversation with c. F. Greenlee few days ago. As is well known. MT. Greenlee has long been one of the most prominent at torneys of Eastern Arkansas. He has practiced in all branches of the pro- fession. He has long enjoyed the reputation of being an able attorney. with all the resources of the law at his command. His long and honor able career before the bar of this county and State is one that may well be pointed to with pardonable pride. Mr. Greenlee owns many valuable pieces of city and farm property, is president of the Monroe County Bank. one of the old and substantial finan- cial institutions of this section. and is altogether most substantial and progressive citizen.
