GETTING RID OF LEGAL
 VERBIAGE.
(Little Rock GaZette,)

(Little Rock Gazette.)
 The district attorney for Kings county, New York, has determined to abandon the old-time legal phrase ology and use language brief and to the point.
 This official gives as an example of the old practice complaint which alleges that the accused did assault the deceased with force and arms. wilfully, designedly, preme editatedly, felon1ously and from a deliberate and premeditated design;" that the as- sault was committed with a certain pistol then and there charged and loaded with gunpowder and one lead en bullet, which said pistol, he the said (accused) in his right hand then and there held, and then and there and"-recounting the same group of adverbs used in the foregoing -"did discharge and shoot off to, at, against and upon the said (deceased) with the leaden bullet aforesaid, out of the pistol aforesaid, then and there by the force of gunpowder afore- of adverbial reDetitions.
 The new form is as follows:
 "The Grand Jury of the county of Kings by this indictment accuses the defendant of the crime of murder in the first degree, committed as fol- lows:
 "The defendant on October 15, 1909 in the county of Kings, wilfully, fel- oniously and of malice aforethought, Shot with a revolver thereby inflicting injuries of which he died on October IS, 19O9." Here is surely great reduction i1 legal verbiage-and in legal ad- verbiage.

MORE THAN BAYONETS.

The governor of Colorado, replying to President Wilson's warning to the effect that the state of Colorado must be prepared to maintain peace within it's own borders without fed eral aid, replied that at al extra session of sthe legislature special bond@ issue had been provided to raise a million dollars for the militia, and as soon as the money was avail- able he thought the state would be able to control the situation.
 In other words, the Colorado mess is going to be settled with bayonets.
 The people of Colorado, who have already paid over $600,000 for the militia in this disturbance, must put up the money to carry on the Colo rado war.
 Colorado needs something besides bayonets. Other states have. labor strikes. occasionally. Colorado has them all the time. Labor has occas- ional icomplaints in other states. In Colorado labor complains all the time. There must be something wrong in Colorado to produce these abnormal conditions.
 Maybe all the labor agitators go
 there, but why should they? ] Whatever it is that keeps trouble
 brewing in Colorado all the time;
 that keeps labor agitated there when lit is quiet and contented elsewhere
 should be eliminated. It can not be done with the bayo-
 net.

FOR MORE GOOD ROADS.

One of the greatest movements yet launched iu Arkansas is that for the creation of an Improvement district of the land in Jefferson county, north of the Arkansas river, for the pur- ppse of building 100 miles of maca- dam. roads. The system will pierce every section of the district, and put a modern, permanent highway with in a few miles ,sof every acre in the north of the parrish. ss''
 The increase in property values alcne will more than offset the cost, but the greatest value will be ia the time and money saved in hauling produce to market and purchases to the farms.
 If farmer has a road that will enable him to haul four bales of cot ton at one load and make two trips ' day, he is $4 or $5 better off than the farmer who can only haul two bales and make one trip. And this is not including in the consideration the wear and tear on animals, wagon and harness; nor the money value of being in position to get to market at all times.
