Mexico *• Seen by Man From
Arkansas.
Jonn R. Cox, a conductor on
the Choctaw, has returned from
a month’s travel in Mexico. He
visited Monterey, San Luis Po
tosi, Mexico City and several
other points of interest,
“Notwithstanding that many
of the cities in Mexico have be
come well Americanized,” said
Mr. Cox yesterday, “there ie no
sign of the decaienoe of bull
fighting. While in Monterey I
saw a bull fight on a Sunday af
ternoon. The attendance was
large, showing that this is still
the national sport of Mexico. 1
eaw five bulls and ten horses
killed that afternoon, and I was
su feited. Ido not want to see
any mure of that kind of brutal
iport. It ie revolting in the ex
ireme to me, but the crowds there
seem to revel in the spectacle.
So long as bull fighting is ooun
lenanced by ttie government of
Mexico it will continue to be the
favorite attraction for toe Mexi
;ans. it is one of the customs
Jiat Americanization has failed
u> stamp out. In my travels u>
Mexico 1 frequently ran across
people whom 1 had known in the
sila es. Il is really surprising,
the number of Americans one
meets in Mexico. They are there
in large numbers, and many are
prospering in business. It is
easy for non-Spanish speaking
visitors to make their way in the
land of the Aztecs, now that so
many people from the United
States have gone there. English
is spoken, or properly speaking,
it is ‘ ‘spoken at,” to a great ex
tent among the natives, and
there is said to be less animosity
exhibited toward ‘Americanos’
than there was a few decades
ago.”—Gazette
Chas. T. Moore, of Garland
eO uty, who was sentenced to 21
years in the penitentiary from
that county two years ago, for
murder, escaped from the old
penitentiary at 10;30 Monday
night. Moore was night cook at
the penitentiary and had the
freedom of the grounds. Mon
day night he left the kitchen and
walked through one of the holes
which had been cut in the walls
for the building of the railroad
switch.

| OUR. SECULAR. SCHOOLS.
By W. D. Leiper. A. M.
To know things scientifically
and practically is power among
men. Whether it is along the
line of the learned professions,
or has mastered the problems of
art and the great field of me
chanics, or solves the intricate
questions of the science of gov
ernment, or searches out and.de
velopes the occult laws of moral
science and the ethical rules of
high, noble living, or points out
the way to success in the busi
ness or commercial world full as
it is of unknowable, abstruse and
bewildering mazes, along every
avenue of life’s activities and
progress, “Knowledge is Power.”
Never was there a truer senti
ment expressed than is contain
ed in the syllogism:
Study gives the mind—train
ing;
Menial culture is standard
capital;
Standard capital is the basis ot
the world’s progress;
Thirefore, “To Know,” ie the
highest human achievement.
Individuals and nations never
rise higher in influence and pow
er for good and for the right than
the gauge of their intelligence of
mind and their heart culture.
The importance of educating
ihe youth of this state is palpa
ple if the foregoing be true, and
none can doubt its premises.
In order to train our youth in
intellect and morals up to this
standard, we must make some
very radical changes or rattier
add io the good frame work we
already have. To tne thought
ful and observant the present
machinery of our free school
system is not accomplishing in
the light of the above proposi
tion what it should and must be
made to effect. It lacks in effi
ciency. It has not lifted up the
masses of the people to that plane
of proper thinking an 1 good liv
ing that is rightfully expected of
it by the philanthropic; nor is it
fully preparing the people, espec
ially of the rural sections for
that high citizenship which brings
honor, prosperity and glory to
any and al! communities that
struggle to achieve it.
To meet this demand of our
progressive civilization we must
have longer terms of school and
better teachers. To secure these,
we must have more school reve
nue and better administrative
management' Our youth must
have better and higher school
advantages. With our short
terms, usually about three
months, reduced to two by the
intense heat of summer and con
sequent mental and pnysioial le
thargy, and too with teachers of
inferior equipments, knowing
nothing at all if the, psychology
of child mind—there is little to
inspire boys and girls to aim for
higher knowledge and to achieve
greater distinction in the higher
activities of life. “Drink deep,
or taste not the Pierian Spring. ’ ’
To accomplish this great desid
eratum, we must have wise and
efficient legislation. Let those
who aspire to represent the peo
ple of the state in the legislature
discuss this great paramount
question and thus educate them
up to a proper appreciation of
the importance an I gravity of
his subject.
The candidates for State Sen
ator of this district will address
the people of Malvern at the
Court House next Saturday. This
meeting promisee to b« an inter
esting one and a large crowd will
no doubt be present. i

'MWting of Ce.nt.loup. Growers.
A meeting of the canteloupe
raisers of thia section was held
at the eouft house Thursday af
ternoon. TheOttject of the meet
ing was to perfect an organiza
tion and to induce members to
increase their acreage in cante
loupes, potatoes, etc. A letter
was read from S. R. Young, the
Iron Mountain Horticultural
agent, in which he promises to
assist the enterprise in every way
possible and recommends a large
increase in acreage this year on I
account of the World’s Fair at
St. Louis. Another meeting
was called for Feb. 27, at the
court house and Mr. Young will
be present to address the growers.
At this meeting the organization
will probably be perfected and
officers elecied. All who grow
truck of any description are urg
ed to be present. Those present
at the meeting Thursday repres
ented about 160 acres to be plant
ed in cantaloupes.

We’ve been kinder froze up
for sometime past but now we
are sorter thawed out and will
pencil you a few items from these
parts.
Health is much improved now.
All doing well except Mrs. Clark
and Jim Vereer.
It is sleeting and snowing with
the thermometer standing at
thirty-two—freezing point —but
1 reckon the candidates are keep
ing the other side of the county
warm—politically.
We have one Davis man up
here who has made a big ado
about the McCullough affidavit
but what will he do now since
the old man sweats that he did
not swear it? Ala me! Let the
good work go on, let the Wood
buttons so shine that others see
ing the Wood works may confess
confidence therein. I hope We’ll
have good “Wood works” in
the machinery of this State’s
government during the next gu
bernatorial period and that such
“Wood works’’ may be orna
mented with something more
agreeable to the political eye
than rusty iron. lam not a Jeff
Davie democrat but I am 1 Jeff

We have no negroes here and

too numerous to mention, but
hope they are all for Wood.
