RIEFF ELIMINATES ON ELECTION

Ollie Rieff, deputy state auditor, ?
dyed-in- the-wool Democrat, was mus
ing over the election the other day
and evolved the following:
Great as is this victory, grand as
is this triumph of Democracy, far
deeper lies its real significance
at means the preservation of the
freedom and liberty of the people II
means that government by the people,
of The people. and for the people is
not failure. No longer can our form
of government be called failure.
Intelligence has trfumphed over
ignorance; patriotism has triumphed
over sectionalism: principle has tri-
umphed over partisanism.
at means new alignment OF
parties not on the false and shallow
theories of partisanism, but upon the
broad principles of justice, equality,
and righteousness.
ut means less law and more JUS
tice in the tribunals of the country.
1T means the un;fication and
mutually of the interests Of capital
and labor; that there is something
more in the relationship of capital
and labor than the mere status Of
tcontractuality
"It means that a crisis in the fate
and destiny Of our country has
arisen and that the right man was
at the helm to guide the ship Of
state
And thus history repeats itself
In all the great crises of human af-
fairs. in obedience to the immutab bic
law Of God, the right man emerges
at the proper moment

HAS THREE NEPHEWS IN WAR.

Little Rock, Nov. 22.-H. F. H.
Eberts, one of the prominent business
men of Little Rock, and one of Am
erica's most loyal subjects, is ma
tive of England. But he is an advocate
of the genuine Americanism which
teaches that any man who is not loyal
to the Union should leave it and re-
turn to the country which claims his
LOYALTY. He has three nephews in the
big war, all of them surgeons in the
English army, one at Ramsgate, Eng
land; one at the front in Flanders, anc
| the third at Salonika.

FORTUNE FAyORS ARKANSAS
COTTON GROWERS.

This has been the most remarkable
cotton season in the history of Ar
Kansas -
Notwithstanding the ravages of the
Eoll weevil and the severe drouth, the
state has made more than an average
crop, and will receive for it twice
as much as the crop usually brings.
This was done despite the weeVil, ami
the drouth was really an aid, sin &c
it checked the weevil which was just
ready to migrate.
Last season there were $4,000
bales raised in the state, and the
last ginners' report shows total of
S13718 bales ginned up to date. Care
full estimates are that the crop will
exceed one million bales, exclusive OF
linters.
1t is estimated that the crop will
yield total of s12o,o00,000 for the
state, in cotton and seed, about twice
the normal return from the crop.
There are several elements entering
into this situation. The farmers
have abandoned the haif-and-half the
simpkins, and other short staples,
and have been planting the best long
staple seed that could be found. The
benefit of seed-selectiou and long
staple has been clearly demonstrate /.
The average of long staple on the
market is higher than ever before II
has required 200 or 300 pounds more
of long staple to produce a bale than
Of the short staple.
While middlng cotton has advanced
to 30 cents, there have been sales of
long staple at 35 cents a pound,
Nineteen bales sold at that figure in
Pine Bluff last week and an offer Of
"a cents was refused in Little Rock.
Cotton seed has been selling at $40
to $50 ton. compared with the usual
price of s12 to S15. When a farmer
can get 5000 for a bale of cotton and
the seed, the prosperity of the state is
assured.
The crop was gotten out much
earlier this year than usual, on ac-
count of the desire Of the farmers tc
take advantage of the high prices
and the killing frost which came the
middle OF October, about a month
earlier than usual. The frost stopped
all late cotton in the making, al
though the weevil had done that al
ready in the cotton lands. The croI
has been rushed to the market al
rapidly as it could be ginned, and
there has been great congestion o
the congresses throughout the state
Even linters, q by-produet that ordi
narily sells for -fourths of
cent is bringing 7 cents.
The failure of the crop east of tn
Mississippi has also been factor.
has been estimated that in Arkansa
fields where the weevil was most pre-
valeTt, and where a yield OF five
Fights of a Gale was secured, ha
climatic conditions similar to thos

PRESS COMMENT.
WHERE RESPONSIBILITY RESTS.

When Henry NJ. Waite, the city
manager of Dayton, O., says that
city will be governed only as we'll as
its people deserve and desire; that a
| city government can be only as
nearly ideal as a community can ap-
preciate and understand. and that no
community can be properly govern
| ed until a large majority of It's eiee-
| torate is prepared to eliminate poil-
tics from its municipal affairs anu
keen them eliminated, he is simply
repeating what has been said thous-
ards of times. and what all thought
full CITY dwellers know to be true
RI is not city governments, therefore,
that are primarily blamable for lax
city administration but, rather. the
De0ple who set ND and maintain CITY
governments on standards lower than
those they observe in their private
business and in their homes.-Chrls-
