 The mayor and members of the Council took this sLep advisedly. And in doing so, asked that the citizens cooperate in an effort to making ends meet. It is conceded that this is the only means of keeping expendi- lures down and efficiency up, and it is believed that tho plan advanced will work out, although it will be 8 thorny path for those who are charged with the keeping of civic af- fairs. It is believed that the merch- ants of the city will be fired with sufficient public spirit to lend their assistance. In fact, there have been assurances of such and this has af- forded a great relief to the council manic body.
 A city is very much like an ind.. vidual after all, in regard to finances. Reckless administrations CT individu- als will spend heedlessly and acquire debt. The prudent individual or ad- ministration will desperately strive to live within the pounds of means afforded.
 Pine Bluff will this year live with in it's means if such thing is pos sible. It's up to us to help the Coun- Gil make this plan if possible People salaries. It's case of we must make Pine Bluff do it. A little of this sort of public self denial, and the city debt will in the course of not a great time, become memory, inso- far as a constant struggle with 1t is concerned.

EcujnoctiaIs,

The equinoctial or line storm is pop ularly supposed to happen when the sun crosses the line in March and Sep. tember, and is particularly expected about September 21. A careful tabu- lation of the weather conditions of half a century makes it clear that the weather more frequently is clear at that exact period. The idea was prob ably given birth to by some great storm which happened to fall at the time of year when day and night are of about equal length.

 nOGnESS ROsPERITY
.WITHIN THE ,LAWr

When one considers that there arc ten theaterical companies playing in this country and Europe, that New York packed the same theater for two years to witness performances and people throughout the country gladly pay two dollar rate for seats and feel the money well spent, it must be conceded that Within The Law" is more than merely d play. as
 It's nearness to human nature, It's telling blows at conditions which really exist, fling at big department store flambouyant rhilanthropies and employee shcrt-sightedness and the eternal bounding which befalls those who once come undr the eye of the metropolitan police, makes it at once a composite story of varied phases of life. It goes even further than this. It depicts through the scenes. now laws of the land can, be violated if one stays merely within certain pale and has the. good judgment to secure able legal advice.
 Mary Turner and her band of crooks pulling off outlawry inside the law. with the police powerless to cope with them, may be regarded in a passing thought as merely adapted for stage purposes. Such is not the case.
 Bayard Veiller, who wrote the play, now man of forty-five years, was for many years a New York police reporter on the big dailies. In that capacity he came in contact with clever crooks, was familiar with the procedure of the minions of the law, and while he used cloud of imagi- nation for his siege characters, he drew the pictures greatly from actu- ality.
 There are many, many men and women today who are reaping for tunes by their wits. In other words. they are committing downright rob- bery, but in such manner that the law cannot hold them. It is an Irony s on the legislative system that such a condition can exist. and on the other hand there is, referring 10 another phase of the play, nothing save harsh criticism for system which allows many innocent to serve prison eerms, and one which prevents them from earning an honest living when they come back to the great, outside world again. And yet such occurs in every big city nearly every day of the world.
 , The trials of Mary Turner bring close to us some realities of life which we possibly have not thought of. These realities will come even closer if we will but think that there are many Mary Turner's. And there will be Mary Turner's just as long as justice is so blind that innocence a cannot be seen, and wrong IS so powerful that right is openly defied
