The legislature will probably pass bill to let Lit tie Rock vote on the question. Heretofore Sunday baseball has been prohibited In Little Rock by art of the legislature. Fort Smith, a smaller town, has Sun day Jiaaeball by building a grandstand over In Oklahoma. lu Springfield, there never hss 'been much opposition to Sunday baseball, but a great deal to moving picture shows. The whole be working for themselves but Franco, and some might consider i that an Injustice.

War Is as expensive a plaything as countries can indulge In and France should expect to pay the bill. Andrew Jackson said In a like case: "The French won't pay unless they have to," and he saw to It that they paid. DOES MURDER OUT? Who will killed Clarence Mack? Who killed Charles Landers? What became of the men who killed Segrl fried? Who killed halt a dozen others lii this section? Here is one at the problems of the day. A man Is murdered There Is excitement at the time. A few suspects are arrested and then It all passes away.

It is forgotten and the criminal Is never pun Isbed. The percentage of those who steal, rob and murder and escape must be quite large. The criminal ot today and of all day Is cunning and crafty. He gets away and stays away. The law Is too often baffled.

A more organized way and systematic ef fort must be made. The hunt for a murderer should sever cease. He should be brought to Justice If It takes 26 years. About, that length of time It may be recalled there was man named BIrdsong In Polk county. He murdered his wife In cold blood and ran away.

There was vigorous search for a few weeks and all was forgotten. Bird song might be in Springfield to day and feel perfectly at ease. He Is forgotten, the crime has passed out of memory and be Is as se cure from punishment as though be never comltted (he crime. The country Is filling up. There will be more crime sod large centers of population have found It best to never let up In the search for murderers.

If one ran slay hidden for a few years be knows he will uever have to even face a trial court. Some regularly organized bureau should have all murder cases and be empowered to keep up the search without' ceasing. Failure to keep up a regular, relentless search Is the reason why so many murderers are never brought to Justice, not even tried. Missouri and all states must come to this plan In time. As It la a change of sheriffs or police chiefs generally means all In for matlon possessed by them is lost.

For this the public suffers and the criminal profits the great Injury of the public who Is hardly protected at all." TAX IXCREA8R. More taxes are needed. A nui sance tax Is proposed tn Jefferson City whereby $7,000,000 will be added to the revenuesvpt the state. The tax bill has the backing of Gov. Baker and will be punhed.

thtng la made a sort of religious The bill would levy on theater oupstlon. People of strict rell tickets, tobacco products and other glous belief" In Little Rock fear I luxuries. This measure Is op they are the Almighty "to i posjrl by city members. Any tax gn to a ball game on Sunday, will be opposed from somewhere. while over In Fort Smith, others Just as strict In their belief, can see no wrong In a Sunday game.

Hut It was ever thus. Tlellglon has always furnished a sharp division in thought and sentiment. The division takes up more Important points of controversy than ports, of course. as there is no tax all are looking around to Joyfully pay. Country members favor this tax as they don't want an Increase made on real estate and tn that tbey will have ths support of many In the cities who also think the real estate tax Is already too high.

A find It desirable to break up into be conferences, amendments and lo a having Independent though friendly systems of government, gome ot the border atatea might Join Canada." It remains to be seen It a compact country like the United ably take place, and the United! Btates will feel Its baleful repesj cusslon. For the concise eipres alon of the sentiment among capitalist, commerce and Industry, labor and the public ot Europe as a whole from now on may be set down In a few words: 'We are no longer working for ourselves. The harvest of our efforts and labor Is being gathered by It It flagrant Injustice." But If France repudiates Its debt, American taxpayers.wlll not the Teachers college and other schools In the country. The people don't object ao much to liberal taxation, provided they get their money's worth. There la always doubt that thla la done.

State affairs are administered loosely, due to, poor organisation and sometimes lo unqualified officers, and this means waste if not dishonesty. Probably this wilt be changed somewhat If the legislature reorganises the state Into nine aajor departments as suggested by 'a businessmen's organisation. When this change comet It wilt be easier to get a tax Increase as the people will have more confidence in the measure and feel that the money will not be thrown away. Nevertheless, It looks aa though there la no choice and the Baker nuisance bill will have to be passed, Just because the state must have the cash.

Raney writes from Mammoth Spring. "I read with great Interest your account of the ellze ana greatness of Oreer Springs, near Thayer, and being a resident of Mammoth Spring 111 Arkansas, beg you to allow me to give you a faot or two about our spring. "You state that Oreer Springs Is second to the largest spring In the world, being led by another Missouri wonder near Van Buren and that It maximum flow la 639.000.000 gallons every 34 hour. Mammoth Spring only two miles soutn oi Thayer and barely escaping being a Missouri reeource has an unvarying flow of 864.000.000 gallons per .4 hours. Mammoth Spring, la only one spring while Oreer Springs Is composed of several small ones.

'Of course tn data on tnese mar vela of nature are rather uncertain at times but I kindly Invite you boys of ths 'Show Mo' state to drop down and see for yourseir. oreer Bprings may excel In rugged beauty yet Mammoth Spring, as you will find.

AU the new expression of old sentiments are being used to decorate the IB37 model Valentines. While the valentines displayed by the stores of.

Springfield this year may not be so ornate as they once were, the sentiment seems to be the same. Large and lacy concoctions, such as lovers used to carry through the snow for miles, are not so prominent In the displays as they were lu years gone by, but they still can be found along with the old fashioned comic valentine. One might wonder, after over the assortment of Valentines of fered this year, If confection and affection are not being mingled Indis criminately, for miuiy of tbem are trimmed with sticks of candy with some such sentiment as this: "I'm a little lollypop And sweet as can be Do you think that you Could get stuck on me?" The general Idea of the season Is expressed on one Valentine: "When a body loves a boay Who Is mighty fine Then a body tell a body In a Valentine."

SUIVERY ENDS IN BRITAIN Vigorous Efforts Are Being Made to Suppress It in Un administered Areas. LONDON, Feb. 12. 81xty four years after Abraham Lincoln emancipated the slaves under the urls dlctlon of the government of the United States, Great Britain Is able to say that slavery under Its Jurisdiction Is practically at an end. During the past few months over (.000 slaves have been set free In India.

Definite orders have been given to chieftains In outlying districts that slavery must be abolished and the British government is taking care that these instructions are being obeyed. The remaltng slaves In proximity to the territory administered by the Indian and Burma government are now being gradually released from bondage as a result of the visit of Sir Harcourt Butler of the Kachln Hills. Inspired by the success of the campaign In the Hukawng Valley, which resulted not only In the release of but In the virtual suppression of ths common practice of human sacrifice, the governor of Burma has. determined to clear the only other area that borders on his province; Sir Harcourt Butler visited Myltky lna and summoned over 100 chiefs to a Durbar at which he Informed them that Britain was determined to stamp out slavery and to punish slave hunters. The chiefs answered that slavery was an ancient custom and that they had religious duties to perform and failure to do so would re sult In disaster, but Sir Harcourt Butler declared that slavery Is now prohibited In every civilized country i in the world and could no lonter i be tolerated within reach of British Justice on any consideration.
