In the Matter or a Petition for Par dons for Daniel Golden. David Gross and Samuel Green.

Hon. Charles Fl. Broueh. Governor of
 the State of Arkansas, Little Rock Arkansas.
 1 Your kXcellency:
 The undersigned petitioners are residents of Hot Springs. Arkansas and respectfully urge and request
 that pardons or concentrations be granted to Daniel Golden. David Gros, and Samuel Green. and state:
 That the said defendants are now in the state penitentiary serving terms of three years each adudged against them in the Garland Circuit Court; that they have served more than one year each, and have, as these petitioners are informed and believe, conducted themselves as obedient. trustworthy and industrious prison CTS.
 The facts are as claimed by the defendants that during the race meet al Hot Springs in March, 1917. they were inyeigled by one "Wrinkles" Daniels, race track tout, into making bet on race the result of which, they were made to believe, was fixed that they parted with their money the sum of near Three Hun dred Dollars: and that Daniels put the money in his pocket insteead' of betting it as agreed upon That on the same afternoon, Daniels having refused to pay the money back. the defendants in a fit of passion seized Daniels and by force took from him 8 sum of money in amount and in de- nominations similar to that lost.
 Daniels failed to appear and prose- cute tho defendants at the trial, and that upon the advice of friends and their counsel, they entered pleas Of guilty
 We are convinced from the state ments of the defendants that a seri- ous doaht of their guilt of the of- fense of robbery exists, end that their cases are of such nature as to entltle them to executive clemeney

THE GOLDEN RULE.

Perhaps one of the most popular axioms ever written is the Colder Rule. The rule that a man would ap- ply or have applied to himself, DeIor, he would apply it to others, is accept ed as pretty fair rule.
 During the recent meeting of the National Editorial Association in this city the congressional act which re- qnires that every newspaper make sworn statements along certain lines twice each year. was discussed The statement requires every person who holds any of the stock in any news paper to be listed, and requires note or bondholders or others holding cer- lificates of indebtedness. to be listed
 The object congress seems 10 have had in view was to expose to the world the influences that might be be- hind the press Thereby the motives or Inc press, it was supposed. could always be traced
 Certainly the press is no greater public factor than the lawmakers themselves. The lawmakers write the laws under which we live. The mem bers of congress are subject 10 infn,- ences, perhaps more SO than news Tapers
 If congressman or senator has ohlleations he has to carry. these might guide or influence him in mat sers of the greatest importance 1T he gets money from source of ques- sionahle character. that Is a matter of public concern.

GETTING RESULTS.

After personal visit to the men 1T charge of not alone the county bu also the township work in Salln, county, R. A. Jones and Sidney Nut of the Business Mems League have promises that next Wednesday tha work of putting the Little Rock roau into condition in that county will bc begun.
 The promise looks substantial and there seems no doubt but that some long needed work in that line will be forthcoming.
 The visit of President Jones and Chairman Mutt of the League commit tee was a most satisfactory one. They went over the matter of the impor tanee of this highway It Is important to Saline county, and far more impor- tant as a general highway
 Hot Springs is pledged to help each year in the maintenance of this high way, and that is pledge that the peo- pie here will support. Saline count, has other roads leading into her agri cultural sections that have to be main tained by that county, and the high way, while beneficial to the county, u rather secondary to Saline, though o vital importance in a general way. anC of much importance to the state a large, and to Little Rock and Ho Springs.
 Under the agreement it looks a though we have a means of maintain ing this road all the time in the future and when Saline county has filled uI the roads over the culyerts we had al ready built, we will continue to assis in the upkeep of that highway.

pERSH1NG FOR PRESIDENT.

Organization of "The Pershing Republican
League" in Ohio may be accepted as giving
definite form to an idea that has slowly crept
into the minds OF many people within the last
few months. 1t is that the great leader of the
American armies in France be named as candi-
date for president by the republicans in 1920
Such move would be wholly in keeping with
national traditions, for our people have always
turned to great military leaders. Our first
president was our first great general, but many
others have followed Washington, Jackson,
Harrison and Taylor, being examples of the
earlier selections, while Grant, Hayes, Garfield,
Arthur, Harrison, Mckinley and Roosevelt are
more modern instances of the soldier-statesmen
who have we'll served the republic as its chief
magistrate. Therefore it is quite natural that
the public heart should turn to the man whose
qualities of leadership have been so thoroughly
proved through actual test One little detail
remains to be decided, however, and that is the
disposition of General Pershing himself. Natu-
rally, he will have to be consulted, and his
wishes regarded. He may not even consider
that he is republican. The Oregon decision
in the Hughes case will permit his being drafted
should sentiment show sufficiently strong to
warrant such procedure. Whatever is done,
Americans will earnestly try to discover means
to express their great pride in this sterling SOL
der, even to making him president.

State Press Comments

Aurora Republicans Mr.. Bryan
comes out of the war in about as
pitiful state as his arbitration
treaties, and now the Pershing pres
idential boom threatens to eclipse
his star as Lincoln's most distin-
guished citizen.
Fairbury News: Now II President
wilson's friends want to invite an
other rebuke for him in 1920 they
will proceed with their government
ownership plans. The people have
had enough of 1t and will rebuke 1t
every time they get a chance.
Grand Island Independent: The
Omaha Bee might well urge good
ROADS even more strongly. State
and federal road building should
proceed at once t. permanently
faced roads and concrete bridges.
Not as soon as this first legislative
session should we forget the lessons
of the war as to both ultimate econ
omy and maximum utility.

prise will be manifested by the pub
lie at the announcement in Wash

other place in this paper that ex-
press rates are to be materially in
creased by Director General Nc
Adoo Of the railroad administration
since taking over the express COM
panies, in view of the fact that rail-
road rates, passenger and freight,
have been boosted SO per cent since
the president turned the railroads
over to his son-in-law.
Harvard Courier: The next leg
islature has chance to perform a
real service to the state by abolish
ing lot of nonessential offices and
boards. 1t is said that Governor
elect McKelvie favors such action
and that he may defer making sew
eral appointments until the legisla-
ture has chance to act. One sug-
gestion is to consolidate some boards
and abolish others and place all
that are left under the management
of one business manager, to be ap-
pointed by the governor. The state
would save money by making such a
change and the business would be
better looked after,
