Stick to your newspaper adver-
tising. Keep your business and
your name before the public. It
may not seem to pay you but it
does and pays well. We have ob-
served always in hard times mer-
chants advertise most. We see the
city papers as well as the county
papers are crowded more with ad-
vertisements than ever before.
Don't lose your identity—continue
your advertising.
An interesting report has been
issued in regard to the great canal
which is to connect the Mississippi
river with Lake Michigan. This
work was at first undertaken with a
view to supply drainage for the city
of Chicago but it has grown into a
navigation project and already up-
wards of $10000000 have been ex-
pended upon it whilst there are
contracts out for nearly twice as
much more for excavation etc. It
is expected the canal will be finish-
ed in two years more.—[Ex.
MAJORITY VERDICTS.
There is a thought worthy of
more than a passing notice in the
suggestion of the Vicksburg Com-
mercial-Herald' that the majority
verdict should supersede the unani-
mous verdict in jury trials. The
unanimous verdict is one of the
many safeguards of personal rights
that have become loopholes for the
escape of criminals. Crime has
fortified itself behind the bulwarks
of liberty. The spirit of our crimi-
nal law harks back to the days
when courts were made the serville
instruments of royal tyrrany. We
continue to hedge about the accus-
ed with ramparts against the cor-
ruption and bloodthirstiness of a
possible Jeffreys. We are fortified
against the shadows of a vanished
past and armed against a foe that
was long since beaten from the
field. Tht law that protects the ac-
cused but leaves society unguarded
against crime is a vicious lav.
Such a law we believe the require-
ment of a unanimous verdict to be.
It meiuis that so long as the crimi-
nal can contrive by use of the am
pie means placed at his disposal to
get one friend on the jury he can
escape punishment Perhaps it
would be going too far in the gra-
ver offenses to allow a simple major-
ity verdict but certainly two thirds
or three-fourths of a jury ought to
be allowed to return a verdict in
any case. With the right of the
trial judge to grant a new trial and
the right to have the whole case
reviewed on appeal there could be
little danger that any innocent man
would sutler •[ Memphis Commer-

' i If we die today the sun will shine
as brightly and the birds will sing
as sweetly tomorrow. Business
will not be suspended an moment
and the great mass will not bestow
a thought upon our memories. “Is
he dead?” will be the solemn inqui-
ry of a few as they pass to their
' work. No one will miss us except
i our immediate connections and in a
1 short time they will forget and
laugh as merrily as when we sat
beside them. Thus shall we all in
‘ active life pass away. Our chil-
dren crowd close behind us and
they will soon begone. Tn a few
l years not a living being can say
“I remember him" He lived in
another age and did business with
'. those who slumber in the tomb.
Thus is life. How rapidly it pass-

fl FEW FfIGTS!
W« wish to state a few facts for the con-
sideration of the general public and ask a care-
ful perusal and consideration of the same. We
believe the people want to sustain and keep up
a good newspaper in Texarkana.
Now for the facts as to the “Texarkanian:”
It has by far the most complete printing
outfit the city ever had—investment is more
than double that of any other plant in the city.
With bran new body type and latest styles of
new job and advertising display type best
presses* run by a little gem of a gas engine no
city of Texarkana’s size in the South can show a
better equipped office nor turn out a neater pa-
per or more stylish job work at lowest prices.
It employs and pays cash for more labor
than any other office in the city. Five or six
families derive a support or revenue from its
income. Its monthly expense account [most of
which stays in Texarkana] foots up from S3OO
to $450 per month. It is a live progressive
newspaper outspoken for right. Democratic
to the core reserves the privilege of censur-
ing wrong in its own party as well as out of it.
It gives daily nearly double as much inter-
esting reading matter as any other paper in the
city and is by far the neatest paper ever gotten
out here—so dozens of citizens have told us.
Its job department is the best equipped in
Southwest Arkansas or Northeast Texas. Any
and all classes of job printing done to. order
equal to St. Louis and prices in competition
with the world. Satisfaction guaranteed in ev-
ery instance. Bring us your job work.
CONCLUSIONS.
Now for conclusions: Having invested our
money and given our entire time to the upbuild-
ing or such a paper and constantly laboring for
the best interests of Texarkana can we not rea-
sonably ask for an increased public patronage?
That many who should do so do not advertise
advertise nor give us their iob work is a painful
fact. Now try us and see If you wont get “val-
ue recel*ed” in every Instance.
