THE HIGHWAY ASSURED.

The Little Rock and Pine Bluff highway-a permanent road-is now practically assured. There will be no opposition to the project ill the courts. This was made plain at a meeting of the commissioners and property own CTS yesterday in this city when J. H.
 Pilkington, one of the opponents to the permanent highway, displayed fairness and good judgment in admit
 ting that he believed the property owners in the district were to benefit rather than suffer from the project and declared that he was willing to be convinced and was convinced that
 he had looked at the matter in the wrong light.
 The Graphic is glad to see this har-
 mony in this one project and suggests that many other legal controversies growing out of improvement districts might be amicably adjusted if those who do not see them as others do, in vestigate and learn the true facts. It is to the best interests of the property owners in Road Improvement

 road, because there will be no expense for upkeep for at least 20 years

'as.k SELF COCKJNG BOOSTER

The announcement from New York that the Public Service Commission has prohibited smoking on all type. of cars, except the old open cars used in summer, recalls the rather strenu- dus efforts that have recently been made by pr. Charles G. Pease of New York to make lige burden to all users ofltobaeco, says the Shreveport Times. Dr. Pease didn't confine his crusade to street cars, but. sought to ban tobacco from the open concerts in the parks.
 pr. Pease succeeded in attracting a great deal of attention from the gen. eral public and from the newspapers. He had the consistent and persistent edmirer in the person of Annette Ha- zelton, who wrote long letters to the Evening Sun, praising Dr. Pease and upholdiag him in the great work that he was doing. In one of these letters she declared that "I revere Dr. Chas G. Pease."
 for Some unknown and occult req son the Evening Sun decided that 1t would like to get acquainted with Annette Hazelton. Alteration of Dr Pease, who was getting himself hear tily disliked by so many people, was fine thilg in Annetta, and possibly the Sun thought it would be a good stroke to have Annettee meet the Doctor so they might exchange confi- dences. So the Sun conducted a quiet investigation to determine An nettes identity. It is needless to add that it was somewhat Mustered when it discovered that Annette, who rever- ed Dr. Pease, was none other than Dr. Pease himself.
 Thus the noted enemy of tobacco had surrounded himself with an at nosphere of adulation that made him proof against all criticism and re- proof He had learned the first les son in boosting.

FEDERAL JUDGES
 ARE INFLUENCED Senator Borah Declares De- partment Made Judges Do
 Their Bidding NOT WELL FOUNDED McReynolds Makes Statement.--Sc tor Works Says Attorney Gen.
 erals Report Unsatisfactory.
NOT WELL FOUNDED

Washington, Aug. 7.- The flat charge that department of justice agents had investigated Federal judges to induce their action in cases il which the government was in- terested, was made in the Senate to- day by Senator Borah and endorsed, at least. by Senator Norris. Senator Borah's charge was brought about by a report from At torney General McReynolds, respond ing to a Senate resolution asking where the Federal agents were inves- tigating judges. The resolution re- flected some sentiment aroused in tho case of Federal Judge Speer of Georgia, whose court had been in vest!gated and who had attacked the department of justice in public speech.
 The attorney generals reply to the inquiry was that any report that the Federal Department of Justice was maintaining a system of espOinage over judges was entirely without foundation

 Mr Borah responded with his charge.
 ''I know that this is very serious charge" said he. but am so rcliab- ly informed that make the statement that within the last four or five years special agents have carried on such investigations with view to in- fluencing judges"
 Senator Norris declared he did not have all the information Senator Borah had. but that he believed his statements were based on facts.
 The attorney generals report de- clared that only three judges had been; investigated, ,.ope of whom was Robert w. Archibald !
 Senator Works, who introduced the resolution denounced the attorney generals report today as "evasive' and unsatisfactory, and announced

HOT WEATHER TOPICS

A writer in the New York Times calls attention to a popular fallacy about white garments for hot wealth CT. It is stated that no animal ill the tropics is furred or feathered ia light colOrs. while the polar bear is a notable example of Natures use of white ill the Artics. It is held that white affords passage for the actinic rays of the sun, and to that extent is not as suitable for hot weather as darker shades. Actinic rays arc those that produce chemical changes, as in the processes of photography, and are distinct from the heat and light rays of the sun, says the Fort Smith Southwest American. They moro nearly approach the mysterious X-Ray. and their effect on the human body is not thoroughly understood. It is believed, however that in excess, they produce well-defined i'll effects.
 This writer properly enough advo. cates the use of lighter weight cloth ing, and naturally, deprecates the foclishness of men who persist in wearing coats, while pointing out a possible reason why they stick tC them-the crying need of pockets.

from heat is due to the overpowerint light.
 Reflected light does most of the | harm. Most persons wear headgear that shades the eyes from the direct
 rays of the sun, but the glare from roadways and shining cement side
 walks is almost unbearable for many.
 At this season there are few peo-
 pie who irritate the majority of their
 friends by asserting that they don't
 mind the heat" Truly they seem not
 to be affected by it, and it does seem
 inconsiderate for them to boast of it
 to those who are so nearly prostrat-
 ed.
 There can be no doubt, however, that suffering from the heat is large. ly exaggerated or diminished by the state of mind. The man who rushes around serenely, and is proud of his immunity to high temperatures, can make exertions that would result in ambulaacesca for the average indi- vidual, l,,because his mind is superior to the .heat.sl Heffdoes not expect to be ltot, therefore he does not suffer. On the other Aand. the person who wor. ries about hot weather, and who talks about it, and complains and signs and exclaims about it, after the habit and custom of humanity in general is sure to suffer.
 On the whole, people take hot weather more sensibly than they used to. and make less fuss about it. Of course there are still great many foolish people yet, who make it the principal topic of conversation and of salutation, but they are growing 'ewer There are more people each year it would seem, who are able to control their minds and keep their at .ention fixed on other subjects. A generous does of Christian Science would be good for even most rigid opponents of that faith.
