CHINESE REPUBLIC PREMATURE

The Rev. Mir. Pott, in speaking of the imminent change in the form of governmental China from a republic to a monarchy, says:
 ''To those best acquainted with conditions in the Far East the establishment of a republic seem- ed premature. We Americans think there can be no better form of government, yet VIC should be wise enough to perceive that not all men are fitted for that govern ment by nature or inheritance, and that people must go through a long period of tuition and ex- perience before they can carry it on successfully. In so far as the monarchy will insure peace and order in the country and make it possible for China to progress more rapidly, it would be of great value to the successful prosecu- ton of Christian propaganda"

BLUFF CITY PLAYS CHIDESTER
 AGAIN WITH 2HD TEAM

Bluff City High School played Chidester team Saturday on their ground. On account of sickness the first team could not play them. But the following players were substituted fer three of the first team players:
 c. J. Mosely, guarding; R. E.. Black, guarding and Barney Ross, center jumper.
 When we reached Chidester we were expecting another sec ond team player, but he did not come on account of sickness. Ross substituted.
 This was MT. Ross's third time in playing basket ball. He is not a student of Bluff City school but friend of ours, and on the last half he gave out and the other center jumper made the scores.
 On the first half the score was 4 to 6 in favor of Bluff City. But when the game ended the score stood 6 to F in favor of Chidester. We do not call it a fair game if Chidester does not play the first team another game. But we hope they will play us again. Bruce Jackson called the game and was called very nicely.

GOOD STORY ON
 ARTHRR ALBERTSON

There's a rather funny little story going the rounds down in Jacksonville concerning a young favOrite's extreme modesty and self-depreciation. As the story goes. he had gone to the picture theatre to see The White God dess," in which he played the lead as the sweetheart of Alice Joyce. And, as is his custom, he had sought the darkest, most isolated spot in the entire theat- re, where he would be sure not to hear the comments of the other spectators. But hardly had he settled himself before two sweet young things. in fluffy summer Jfrocks, futtered into the cornef beside him and cut off his retreat.
 When The White Goddess" came on those two sweet young thu raved over the hero until poor Arthur's ears fairly famed.
 And a friend of his, who sat just behind the unfortunate young man, heard it all and un- mercifully told. Pearl Gaddis. in Southern Woman's Magazine.

REPORT OF TAE
 GRAND JO2Yi
To The Honorable c. E. Haynl2, Judge Of The Eighth Judic- ial Circuit:

#e, the Grand Jury. empanell- ed for the January, 1916, term of the Nevada County Circuit Court respectfully submit the following as our report to the Aourt:
 We have examined Fl witness es,A and have returned 5 indict- mehts,
 We find the public records of the c6Vnty well kept. We have made No investigation on our own ac6Qunt as to the correct, ness of tRS accounts as kept by the collecNne officers of the county, bdt}have relied uQon the report of the commissioners of accounts as Eo this. We find that all justices, of the peace and the constables have filed their report as required by law. The committee appointed to investi- gate. ,, the poor farm report this property to be we'll kept.
 The committee appointed to investigate the Jail report it to be well kept and in good repair, and they further report that they find that there are at this time in the jail, white men. negro men and a negro woman who, or have recently been confined in it in the same enclosure with no separate provision for toilet fa- cilities. We do not know what can be done to remedy this con- dition, but, recOmm end and urge that the matter be investigated to ascertain how 1t can be reme- died and that this not be per mitted.
 We find that the hog law has not been generally observed over the county and complaints have been made to the grand jury; we have been more lenient than we otherwise would have been on account of the lack of feed last year, in the finding of bills on this law.
 We thank the court for the many courtesies extended us. and we also thank the officers of the court for their considerate treatment.
 We now respectfully ask to be discharged.
 w. l.. Britt, Foreman.
 J. M. Garland, Clerk.

T0 THE DEMOCRATIC
 VOTERS 0F ARKANSAS

In announcing my withdrawal from the race for Governor, I do so with the firm belief that 1 would be nominated by a good majority of you if I could meet and discuss with you the neces- sity for retrenchment and re- form in the administration of the States affairs and then could get a correct return upon your ballots.
 The reasons that impel me to withdraw are these:
 1. Such personal canvass as is insisted upon by those of my friends who believe in that meth cd of campaigning is. 1 fear, be- yond my strength. 1 would pre- fer this method, but the effect of my recent illness suggests to me that 1 should not undertake 1t in mid-winter.
 2. The other method of get ting my views before you is by letter and addresses published in pamphlets or in newspapers. or both, but you cannot all be reach ed in this way, and the other necessary expenses met. without exceeding the limit fixed by the Act of April 2, 1913. 5000 is as much as am able to spend, and 1 make no complaint of this limit, but believe in obeying and enforcing all the laws, and if l were financially able to ex- ceed the limit. would not vio- late my pledge not to do so for the nomination. It has been my desire to use the newspapers, but their rates are prohibitive when considered in connection with the legal limit upon expen- ditures.
 3. My fight is in your behalf. It is the unorganized people against an organized official and political machine that has long existed and has already accom-. plished practical destruction of elections by the people. The in- crease of the selfish evil infiuen- ces in the hands of State officials who have the power to select and to appoint Election Commis- sioners, in connection with pat ronage. Y pardons and printing backed up by the party machin- cry have in the past emboldened and enabled them to repeatedly defeat your will. There is every indication that the bosses and ringsters do not intend that 1 shall have an honest election and a fair count.
 With heart full of gratitude to those of you who have SUD- ported me, and an earnest desire that the credit of the State may be restored eXtravagant eXpendi lures stopped; honesty and fidel- ity on the part of the officials practiced; honest election pro- vided for; the laws enforced, and better public schools secured, l am
