NEEDS FACTORIES.
Tnr. Times is much encouraged
by a letter from a gentleman in a
• lighboring State, who represent®
in crests in Forrest City. If there
are any considerable number of
persons in Forrest City who be
lieve us he does, ui.d who are, like
him, ready to co-operate with
others in securing mills, shops and
factories, we can safely predict that
within a very short time there will
be some advancement along this
line. The need of our town is un
doubtedly mills, shops and fac
tories; and to secure them, a leader
with capital, brains and sound
business judgment—one in whose
ability the people will have ex
plicit confidence—who can inspire
others and make them realize the
necessity of such enterpiiscs.
The gentleman, under date of
20th inst., writes as follows:
KI.tors FobKest City Times, Forrest
City, Ark :
Gentlemen—We read your ed
itorial on the 13th in.it. on the need
of more factories with much inter
est, and we wish to congratulate
you on the position you take ir
this matter. Forrest City certainly
needs factories. Abovo all she
-hould have u roller mill, an ice
factory and an oil mill, the ad
vantages of which arc too well
known for comment, and with
these established the wood work
ing factories will eventually come.
Our interests are identified wit!
Forrest City’s interests, and we
-hall take much pride in lending
our assistance to push forward any
enterprise that may bo started
Keep this subject before your read

BLO L' OUT SECTIONAL LINES
Ii is the sense of the Capo Fear
l oiled Confederate Veterans, of
■ Wilmington. N. C., says the Arkan
sas Gazette, that “the graves of the
, ’onfoderale dead should remain in
l.e care of the women of the
South,” and that “the Confederate
veterans ought not to occupy the
homes of Union soldiers, and could
not ask or receive pensions from
he United States government.”
The Gazelle says further that
many Confederate veterans feel as
those do in North Carolina—that
it would not be consistent for the
>ld heroes to accept any bounty
rom the Federal government.
The}'are also opposed to the ad
r.i'sion of ex-Confederates into the
amies of Union soldiers, hut there
an bo no objection, for which
good reason can suggest, to gov
ernment assistance in the care of
the Confederate cemeteries. It
was not proposed by the President
that the women of the South should
be relieved of the sacred duty of
icstowing loving attention to the
memories of the South’s dead
heroes. All the President asked
was max mo government assist in
the care of these graves. It was a
noble and patriotic suggestion, and
tho proposition should be accepted.
Xo luw could diminish tho love of
Southern women for those who
lied battling for tho cause of the
South. Xo ono expects such a
thing. Tho President’s suggestion
was: ‘And the time has now come,
in the evolution of sentiment and
teeling under tho providence ot
God, when in the spirit of fra
ternity wo should share with you
in tho caro of the graves of the
Confederate soldiers." Tho prop
osition eamo from tho President of
{he United States—a Republican
President who had fought against
those whose graves ho would have
the government assist in beautify
ing and in making attractive. It
cannot be possible that there is
my great number of Southern peo
ple willing to decline tho peace
offering extended them by the
President.
Few in the North have objected
to the proposition. Its acceptance
would prove that the South pos
sessed po malico toward the sec
tion of country from whence camo
her former foes. It would remove
the lust vestige of a lino which di
vided the sections lor so many
years after the trouble which
mused the division had been set
tled forever.

Uniform Text Books.
_I
•
A lerge nnmhfr of bills, provid
ing for a uniform .system of text
books in our pubiio schools, have
been introduced in both houses of
the legislature. Wherever slate
uniformity hns been tried, unsatis
factory results have followed. We
have a good law, requiring school
directors in each district to adopt
a uniform system of books for the
district. If the law is not enforced,
it is the fault of the directors. Wc
want the best hooks in our schools,
and county or district uniformity
insures good hooks. State uni
formiiv will not. Tne consensus
of opinion of a very large majority
ot the leading educators in the
United States is against uniform
text-books for the state at large.
Professor Jordan’s opposition to
the measuro killed it two j’ears
ago.
The above from the Marianna
Index is reprinted bv request. It
is no doubt based upon Prof. Jor
dan’s official report as state super
intendent. Wo are not prepared
to indorse it unequivocallj’ or ex
press an opinion as to the prac
ticability of stale uniformity in
text books. There are manj’ se
ductive arguments for and against
it. We have read from Prof. Jor
dan’s report and collation of opin
ions from many prominent edu
cators in other states, and the con
sensus of opinion seems to be
against uniformity. And the rea
sons given are sensible and plausi
ble. We rather think that state
uniformity has not been successful
where tried, and for that reason,
principally, think our legislature
should make haste slowlj’ to forge
upon the children fetters which
maj* not be so easilj’ undone. To
pass such a law means the destruc
tion of half a million dollars’ worth
of books, and the outlaj’ of as
much more for new ones. We tire
inclined to believe that such a law
would not be beneficial.
To the Public.
We are authorized to guarantee ev
evy bottle of Chamberlain's Couch
Remedy to be as represented and if
not satisfactory after two-thirds of the
contents have been used, will refund
the money lo the purchaser. There is

Tho best thing done in Arkansas
during tho year just elo>ed to in
.-uie more profit and better living
to the farming people, and through
them to all others, was the con
struction of so many flouring mills
in all parts of the State. With the
largest acreage of wheat ever sown
in the State now in the ground,
and convenient mills to grind it.
the people are assured of a home
supply of flour, which heretofore
has cost them much money. This
is a long and permanent step for
ward in economical progress.
Henceforth Arkansas will raise
her own wheat.—BatesviilcGuard.
A Narrow Escape.
Tii tnkful words written l>y Mrs. Ada E.
Ilart, of Groton, b. 1). : “ Was taken with
a bad cold, which settled on iny luugs;
cough set in and finally terminated in
consumption. Four doctois gave me up,
saying 1 could live but a short time, i
gave myself up to mv Savior, determined
it I could not stay with my friends on
eat III I would meet my absent ones above.
My husband was advised to get Dr. King's
New Discovery for consumption, coughs
and colds. 1 gave it a trial ; took in all
eight bottles. It has cured me, and, thank
God, 1 am saved and now a well and
healthy woman. Trial bottles free by all
