SENATE AGAINST
 CIGARETTE SALES
Defeats M ure That Would License But ProhlO-
 it Sales to Minors.

Little Rock, March By vote Of 19 to 9 the senate this forenoon defeated a bill to prohibit the sale of cigarettes to minors and placing d license on their sale by persons, firms and companies.
 The vote on the bill was as fol- bws:
 For passage-Burgress, Duty, Going, Kendall, Mccall, Sims, Smith of Union, Wagner and Wasson.
 Against passag ge-Ashley, Bush, Cabaniss, Calvert, Collins, Edmond son, Ferguson, Garrett, Moore, Over man, Ruff, Slaughter, Smith of CO., lumbia. Toler, Yam, White and Pres1- dent Lundy.
 Argument against the measure was that there is at present a statute which provides that cigarettes can not be sold, given away, kept for sale or giving oway, manufactured or in any way disposed of within the state. The proposed Jaw would repeal this measure. In behalf of the bill, 1t was stated that it would forbid min ors to use cigarettes, yet place a license on their sale. It was assert d that the present law is being violated in a great many of the cities of the state and can not be enforced. In respect to this argument it was declared that bill passed the sen- ate that would provide for discharge of officials failing to do their duty and that it would have the effect of enforcing the law forbidding q the handling of cigarettes by anyone within the state.

GOOD ROADS WORK.

More than two hundred million dollars of state appropriations have been expended to January 1, 1915, anu an approximate total of 31,000 miles of surfaced highways constructed under state supervision since the in- auguration of the policy known as "state aid,' according to the Good Roads Year Book for 1915 to be 1s- sued in March by the American Highway association from it's Wash ington office. Only seven states, namely Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennes- see and Texas, have no form of state highway department whatever, al- though Georgia grants aid to the counties for road improvement by lending the services of the entire male state convict force. Legis1a- lures now in session are devotlng much attention to road Legislation and unquestionably several new high way departments will result North Carolina will probably establish all independent highway department ln lieu of the work now done by the state geological survey relating 70 highways.
 New Jersey in 1891 was the pioneer stato in providing state aid for pub lie highways. Massachusetts an1 Connecticut adopted the policy snort ly after. but only during the past ten years has the state aid policy been in effect on a considerable scale. About 5000 miles of state highways were completed in 1913 and about 6. 900 miles in 1914, so that the past two years have been responsible TOT more than a third of the entire state highway mileage. The state hlgh' ways in America now exceed by o.- GOO miles the national road system or France.
 To have state highway departments nlaced under non-partisan, efficient control; skilled supervision required in all construction work; a proper classification of highways to insure intelligent distribution Of improve ments: an adequate provision for maintenance of highways from the dav of their completion-these are among the objects for which the
 American Highway association IS
 waging a vigorous campaign.

THINE BLUFF ROGRESS
 ROSpERITY
LOCAL PRIDE.

One of the most peculiar anachron- isms in the world is local pride. It is loyalty to ones home town, plus.
 It is like sticking up for yourself oven if you are in jail or are wearing last years styles.
 The man who wrote "Home Sweet Home" didn't altogether mean a dcmicile under shingle or matched roof, but he also included the home burg.
 To person living in Pine Bluff there is no neck O the woods or widening of the road anywhere that means just the same to him. It's the place where he "gets his," much or little, good or bad; it's the point on the map where he's perched to look at the rest of the giddy planet and note how inferior the rest of the specks in the immediate vicity are. especially to Pine Bluff. It's the place where he hustles for such kale as he can pry loose from his neighbors, where he jaws about politics, dimes and whines, swaps yarns and won- ders what the rest of the world is coming to.
 The only thing that is back of local pride is human nature, and that IS entirely enough. It signifies that its lasting. You may change the rules of the game in almost everything else, put as you cannot torpedo ana destroy human nature. local pride is going to remain the main stock i'll trade of every American municipal ity.
 Loca, pride is not very particular. It overlooks dirty streets, unpaved throughfares, a. high tax rate. civic financial famines, measles. smallpox and every other ill to which towns are heir.
 Thus it sometimes choloroforms progress by breeding too general satisfaction with the town as it is. It shows a tendency to engender false pride, sometimes. This is an evil, though, that can be remedied by the cultivation of little broad minded ness along with our local pride. Re member. this isn't saying local pride has degenerated into false pride in our midst, but is merely pointing out a danger in order to steer clear of 1t. There is nothing like being a gooa pilot
 Another defect in local pride is an exaggeration of the "I want to win" attitude at sporting events. Good natured rivalry is beautiful tonlc'
