Senator Berry says he will man
age his own campaign. It strikes
us that ail candidates should do
that. Then they will be satis
fied whether successful or de
feated.—Johnson County Herald.
The efforts of certain news
papers and politicians to begin
the gubernatorial campaign
seems to be futile. It is alto
i gether too early to form personal
alignments on state issues. The
man who lias a worthy ambition
to be governor had best pursue
the even tenor of his every day
life.—Marked Tree Gazette.
If the state guard uses its ap
propriation in maintaining the
state quarantine and has nothing
left to defray the expenses of an
encampment, the members may
: feel assured of tiie fact that the}
cannot be charged with allowing
pleasure to interfere with duty.
—Hot Springs Sentinel-Record.
The people of Montgomery
county are in high glee over the
prospect of railroad connection
with the outside world. They
have a good county, and all
needed to make it hum with the
activity of modern progress is
the magic snort of the iron horse.

The worst habit some profes
sional evangelists have gotten
into the habit during a protracted
meeting of preaching a sermon
to men only. Words that are
too indecent for women to hear
should never be uttered in the

siderably powder-burnt.
