Gentlemen- Twenty-three years
ago I was attacked with inflamatory
rheumatism I was attended by the
most eminent physicians in the land.
I visited the great Saratogo Springs
N. Y. and the noted Hot Springs of
Arkansss and many other watering
places and always consulting with the
local physician for directions; finally
came to Florida ten years ago.
About two years ago I had a severe
attack of rheumatism was confined to
my room for twelve weeks and during
the time I was induced to try I’. I’. I’.
[Prickly Asli Poke Root and Potas-
sium] knowing that each ingredient
wns goo.l for impurities of the blood
after using two small bottles I was
relieved; at four different times since
1 have had slight attacks and I have
each time taken two small bottles of
P. P. P.. and been relieved and I con-
j>i(ler.it. tlix'.-lie*tooe«lieiiie of its kind.
Respectfully
J. F. Greer.
RHEUMATISM
Is emphatically a blood disorder
caused by inability of the kidneys to
to throw off certain poisons which ac-
cumulate in the tissues about the
joints and muscles.
P. P. P. very simply quickly and
surely cures this disease neutralizing
impurities in the blood. Experience
and science both endorse P. P. I’. as
the only infallible blood purifier
known.

RATHER GLOOMY.
THE CONDITION OF CROPS NOT
SO VERY FAVORABLE.
Report of Hill Fontaine & Co.—Too
Much Rain in the Gulf
States.
St. Louis Mo.. Aug. 22.—Taken as
a whole the crop is not so favorable ns
a week ago. The weather was report-
ed more favorable iu Texas. Arkansas
and Tennessee. Too much raiu in the
Gulf States east of the Mississippi. Re-
ports from Mississippi and Alabama
are rather gloomy. The Texas crop
favorable with considerable appear-
ance of worms in different localities.
A year ago the bears declared that cot-
ton could not advance because tlie poor
of Europe were starving for bread and
wheat in St. Louis was excited and ac-
tive at sl.Ol per bushel. To-day this
same wheat is selliug for cents
and we are informed that the freight
on a barrel of Hour from this city to
Europe is about 55 cents. This Is low-
er than to many of the interior points
in the South so the poor of Europe
have no cause to complain for want of
bread and unjust freight rates from
their American brothers. During all the
great decline in cotton for the past
few years we failed to find any mark-
ed reduction in freight rates from
local stations iu the South to centers;
in fact we are paying about the same
rates to-day on cotton that we wem
when cotton was worth from S6O to
S7O per bale.
We are informed by the wholesale
dry goods trade that cotton goods are
very active and all changes made of
late have been advances in most class-
es of eottou goods and buyers here
tell us that they are paying about the
same prices for manufactured cotton
goods that they were when cotton
was fen to eleven cents per pound.
These facts go to show that while the
poor of Europe are blessed with cheap
bread and cheap freights the Southern
people have reaped nothing in the way I
of benefits from all changes made; I
that while they are selling their cotton
at about about two-thirds of its value;
two years ago they are taxed with the '
same freight rates and when they
buy clothes for their children they get
none of the benefits of the decline in
the raw material.
Our patrons will notice a great ad-
vance in provisions and especially
lard but we have not heard of any
advance in the raw material from
which a large proportion of the “so-
called lard" is now produced; wo mean
cotton seed. A few years ago it was
profitable to the planter for he got
something near its value say about
sl4 pef tou. We are told by the
planters that “they uow get offers of
$7 and $8 per ton from the Oil Trust
combine provided they will be polite
about it and pull off their hats when
they visit their officers and accept
first offer quick."
Liverpool opened and closed' firm
at 8.64 advance on contracts and 1.16 d
advance on spots. New York opened
higher but closed easy for contracts
nt about two points lower than yes-
terday.
“Cyclone” Davis at Prescott.
Special to the Texarkana Democrat.
Prescott Auk. August 22. —The
political discussion at the park last
Saturday night between “Cyclone”
Davis ofTcxas and Hou. W. V. 'romp-
kins of this place was a dignified one.
The “Simoon" ignores his platform
and in some respects made a good
Democratic speech. Especially did he
make a Democratic hit on the. subject
of tariff reform which the Third party
element here say is only a bone of
contention between the two old par-
ties.
Mr. Tompkins in an hour and a
quarter presented Democracy with its
enviable measures and propositions
and exploded the Third party falacies
viz: Land loan finances transporta-
tion and sub-treasury. His argument
was masterly and high-toned and
demonstrated liis ability to extract
wind without an air pump.
I’HEHCOTT.
Wind Knocked Out of Him.
Ei. Dorado Auk.. August 22. —Cy-
clone Davis had all the wind knocked
out of him here last week by Hon. 'l'.
C. Mcßae. Davis is only trying to
help Carnahan aid Whipple “material-
ly indirectly” and made no converts
in this county and [he People's party
here are very weak numerically. The
Democrats are all in line. Judge Van
Hook and Mr. W. L. Rysiuger will
meet the “calamity howlers” that are
billed for this place this week.
THE MASK REMOVED.
We cull especial attention to all fair-
minded men regardless of party to
the following scheming letter ad-
dressed to Mr. John Dillard of Min-
eral Springs Ark. It requires no
explanation—all honest and intelligent
men can see through it. and the efforts
being made to deliver Arkansas into
the bauds of the Republican party.
It is iu keeping and line and harmon-
izes with Whipple's letter to Mr. Hall
of Salem saving Third party candi-
date would be there and "aid mater-
ially indirectly.” Read ami ponder
over this letter:
Little Rock. Auk.. August 2 1892.
—Having seen that you were the del-
egate of your party to the Omaha
Convention 1 didn’t know of a gen-
tleman in your county to whom 1
could more safely write this confiden-
tial note. The fight is on now in earn-
est and if your People's party lend-
ers will carry out your part of the
programme the grand old Republican
party will be successful iu this cam-
paign and we will have Whipple for
the next Governor of Arkansas.
Don't organize the negroes into Peo-
ple’s party clubs as we learn that
some of tlie members of your party
have been endeavoring to do. but
work all the Democrats that you can
into your party. -Leave tlie negroes
to vote tlie Republican ticket for
State officers of course. We don't
care to meddle with your county
affairs and hope you may be success-
ful iu electing a Representative for
your man will co-operate with ours in
the Legislature. We think your man
Bush will suit us for Congress. We
will quite likely not run a Republican
for Congress if your people can carry
out their part of the contract to help
us elect our State ticket. You see we
must break the solid South at all haz-
ards. 1 have been getting the boys or-
ganized inGeorgia.biit have more hopes
of carrying Arkansas than any other
Southern State. I leave here to-night
fort 'olorado.but will be iu California at
work when your State election comes
off. Keep the boys in the middle of
the road until the sth of September
and we will fulfill all our pledge to
your leaders. Sincerely yours
D. L. Wempfkr.

J. F. Rives Suicides at Searcy.
Seaucy Auk. August 22.—Our
city was shocked this morning when
it was announced that Hon. J. F.
Rives Jr. had committed suicide
about 2 o’clock this morning. He got
up about that time aud went into a
a small closet adjoining his sleeping
room and shot liimself through tlie
temple. His wife was aroused and
hearing him groaning went to the
closet nnd found him lying on a pile
of clothes. He died in a few minutes.
His deatli has cast a gloom over our
city as he was universally liked by all.
He was supposed to be laboring under
some mental aberation brought about
probably by business trouble.
He was very popular in our county
having represented it in the Legisla-
ture of 1883. He was well connected
being a son-iu-law of Gen. I). Mcßae.
Tlie funeral will take place to-morrow.
Burned to Death.
Little Bessie Ferguson the five-
year-old daughter of Mrs. Annie Fer-
guson died yesterday morning at her
home at 617 West Tenth street. It
will be remembered that about two
weeks ago while playing with a neigh-
bor’s little girl her dress caught tire
and that she sustained severe injuries
therefrom. She lingered till Sunday
morning when she died. The funeral
took place yesterday from the resi-
dence. at 4 p. m„ Rev. Dr. Smart otil-

Strong Mon.
Women love strong men. A weak
man may excite their sympathy and a
woman's careful tenderness soothe and
softeu the anguish of a weak man’s
soul but Hie laughing joyous warm
exuberant love of women dear belongs
to tlie men that are strong and noble
aud kiud. Then why will a men con-
tinue weak and menu aud peevish?
Au old gentleman writes: “B. B. B.
gives me new life and strength. If
there is anything tliat will make hii
old man young it is B. B. B.”
Some men say and women too they
never feel weak aud mean except in
tlie spring. Why then feel weak aud
mean aud nervous and prostrated iu
the spring time when life and spirit
awakens with thrilling buoyancy
even the vegetable world? Must
you allow sluggish blood inactive or-
ganic functions rusty joints mid gen-
eral weakness to make your life mis-
erable. simply because the long winter
lias restrained your natural activity?
it need not be. If you will only use
that pleasant and incomparable tonic
blood purifier known as It. B. 8. or
Botanic Blood Balm your health in
spring time will be all that you can
wish. Try it now.
I’. A. Shepherd Norfolk Va. Aug.
10 1888 writes: “I depend on B. B.
B. for the preservation of my health.
I have had it iu my family now nearly
two years and in all that time have
not had to have a doctor.”
