HERE'S GOOD WISHES.

The baseball boys who have had their spring training in Hot Springs are off this week to return to their home towns in preparation for the opening of the regular baseball sea son of 1914.
 The first team to leave was the Indianapolis, lof the American Asso- citation, and that arrangement went away enthusiastic of results, The Boston Americans and the Pittsburg Nationals will leave Hot Springs in good condition this year.
 The best wishes of the Hot Springs fans will follow these teams throughout the baseball year. Each of the teams has separate fight ts win The spring training is for the purpose of equirping the men for the battle.
 We don't believe that from any of the Dixie fields of spring training will be teams sent back in any bet ter condition than those which leave Hot Springs. There is no equal to Hot Springs as a training resort. The coming of the ball teams to Hot Springs is invaluable to the city from every viewpoint, and the people hope that the teams find their trip been as advantageous to the teams as their coming has been to this city

FORGET POLITICS.

There is a highway needed be- tween Little Rock and Hot Springs, which is of more importance than the election 'of any officer of our government in so far as we are con cerned
 There is a summer campaign of ad- vertising. which if properly han dled is of quadruple times the inn portance to us of the election of 8 senator.
 There is a Central avenue condition that DEMANDS attention at once, far more important ia it's demand than politics.
 There is a great need of an incin- erating plant for Hot Springs, the kind that will be credit to the sani- tary condition of our city, which could have been built and operated for a year on the money that has been lost in this election.
 Politics is a necessary evil. But we have had political hegira. We have given politics it's day. Now for other things, and more substantial things.
