The Angles and Saxons were the
chief tribes among the three principal
Teutonic conquerors of Britain; the
Jutes were the third. They were Low

Germany and Scandinavia, the lands
at the mouth of the Elbe and the
Weser. Their language was an irde-
pendent branch of the Teutonic fam

A way has been found to compc
public utilities corporations to fur

OF public utilities now realize thai il

furnish satisfactory service.
The local telephone service may
seem d fitcnt at tines, but on tn,
who'll service is satisfactory. Any
way, thc service would not be i'm
proved nor cheapened by competi-
tiCn. Not any more tnan street car
service would be improved by com
petition. Pin Bluff has excellent
street car service because the own
ers of the system have invested. hun

later. If Pine Bluff was inflicted
With competing street car lines,

BLAMING THE PAPERS.

Blaming the newspapers is one OF
the most popular Of indoor and out
door sports of men who quail when
they see their words in print and
with public s. fltiment. But it was
left for William Jennings Bryan, late
pl or Ter of the Wilson administration
to pull off trick that for pure .au-
dacity has 'em all beat.
Mr.. Bryan blames the newspapers
for situation cxis ing last week-a

says This in the face of his statement

Mr.. Bryan created the Impression
for which he is now blaming the

CT this is the attitude of German
ncwspaps rs, whose editors basct
their conclusions on MIR. Bryan's

II would be difficult to find a region

In California. In its early days, be-
fore its production of graiL was equal

were high, but as production Increased
the prices lowered faster than the rate
of wages. A farmer employed an In
