Arkansas, ar' kan saw', one of the west south-central states of the United States, was formerly known as the Bear State.  It was largely wilderness even as late as the War of Secession, and its frontier reputation clung to it for years after Arkansas had become a state of orderly law and civilization.  Many people judge it from humorous literature, and pictured it as a state where everyone carried a bowie knives, and fought duels, and killed bears for occupation.  De Soto, gazing across the turbid waters of the Mississippi, saw but the shores and forests of a wilderness.  had he gazed into the crystal of the future he would have seen an empire ready to blossom.
