PRICE MAINTENANCE.

A merchant in Pine Bluff was asked l the other day whether there was any possibility of getting q standard line of goods cheaper than the marked price for cash
 "No," he replied. "The price is fixed by the manufacturer and nobody in the entire country can sell it cheap CT. and the price is the same for cash or credit"
 We believe price maintenance is a good thing. as it prevents the crea- ton of business monopoly in few hands by undegselling and drlving competitors out of business, only to boost the prices extraordinarily after they are out Of the way.
 The system of not allowing cash Euatomers discount, however, is contrary to the rules of trade and unnecessarily encourages credit bus mess. Nine persons ou of ten, get ting an article no cheaper for cash will buy on cRait.
 The Pine uff merchant agreed but said the bet that the article couldn't be purchased in any other city at a cheaper price kept the trade in Pine Bluff.

SOME ADVICE ON WEDDINGS.

The following letter in an exchange caught our eye
 "I expect to he married soon, bu hate the artificality, commences ant
 cheap display of ordinary weddings 1t seems to me that ones marriage should be a quiet, sacred, persona event. with none of tie joking ans feasting that go with 5 public cele- bration. Our folks insist on having celebration. What are we to do'
 Would it be wise to lope?--Gertie.
 This is rather a touehy proposition for an editor to have fred at him, but true to he traditions of the craft he's got to Tackle and settle every question that agitates the public mind, so here goes:
 It is clear, Gertie, that you want to he a June bride. Yet you fear the publicity that June brides usually get. not because they're prettier ana make better wives than brides Of other months, but because June rhymes with spoon and moon, words that put queer thoughts into the heads of lots of girlies like you.
 The best thing for you to do, Ger tie. is to stand for the noise, the feasting, the jcy, the music and the highfalutin' good time that by rights ought 10 go with weddings. You and your hubby may as well act human There is no virtue in trying to adopt cynical, supercilious, lofty attitude toward well essablished d institutions and customs. Ana by the way, Ger tie. this sl atement holds good for lots Of other things besides mere wed- dings
 Fall right in line with the gayety of the thing. Gertie Help the folks
 0 a little enjoyment. They'll like you better for it. Never overlook vhe op- portunity to do little good, and here is your big chance to make glad ths hearts of round of friends wAo will remember the event to their dying days.
 You are sort Of June Santa Claus to the crowd, Ger ie-you and Dick. There is nothing artificial, common and cheap about real wedding, done up brown in the old-fashioned way.
 And lastly. when this biggest little event in your spotless life tran spires, see that your edl.or ge,s q good account of it For the paper. Every editor is a keen cuss at givin;s q newly hookel-up couple a good send-off.
 When you and your hubby get old, you'll often take the faded yellow clipping from sc ap book and read | with tears in your eyes

AK IMrRiDENT MAYOR.

Philadelphia has mayor who be- licves that he is more powerful than the press Of the Quaker city.
 When any man or corporation think they can successfully fight a well-conducted newspaper they arc vastly misttaken, sagelv observes the Memphis Commercial Appeal, which is
 we'll qualified to pass judgment be- lause it is well-conducted news paper that is now winding up sue ressful fight against graft in public office in Memphis.
 in the present instance the Com mercial Appeal continuds, in it's dis cussion of the Philadelphia execu- tiye's mis ,aken policy, the mayor is- sued an order that no reporter con nected with the press of the city would be permitted to enter his of flee. He has declined to submit to an inl eiview explaining his reason for such an arbitrary order He would, if he could, bar all repor,ers from the city hall and council chamber, but this he cannot do. It would be an abridgment of American rights.
 The city hall is not the property of the mayor + belongs to the people. Public records are public propeE.y y and the taxpayers have right to know just how the affairs Of the city are being conducted.
 Of course the mayor of Philadelphia had right to close the door of his private office to gentlemen of the press. but in doing this he showed a narrow minded prejudice that can do him no possible good.
 The energetic reporter may some- times step on the toes of public off uials. and in doing this make himself decidedly unpopular. But he is doing no more than his business calls upon him to do.
