Mr. George'-Deckert. of Miller
county is in the city today We

right and will vote for the Bryan
and Sewall electors.
Mrs. H. R. Webster received her
new wheel yesterday ordered 'by

ors and utter the club yell. Call a

send them to Puck and the Judge
and become immortalized.
It is hardly necessary to call at-
tention to the large and attractive
new “ad.” of the “Jacob’s Famous”
clothing house on Ist page. As it
says it is “No Scheme no Hoax no
Fake.” On account of having to
close out business Jan. Ist every-
thing is offered at actual cost—cost
mark given in “ad.” See what
“ad.” says.

quite an extensive practice. He
has diplomas and other evidences as
to his ability and is known here as
an upright clever gentleman. His
office is over Leraly’s Drug Store
where he can be found when not
professionally engaged.
The Houston Post the leading
Democratic paper of Texas sent
one of its truest and trusted writeis
to Chicago to study Bryan s
chances there and he writes back
that Chicago will give Bryan a big
majority or all signes belie them
selves. The correspondent said the
workingman and clerks are very
near solidly for Bryan and four out
of five will vote for him.
Th*e water company has a force
of men at work to sink their pipes
. deeper in the ground at the inter-
I section of Broad street and State
Line where they interfere with
the laying of the tiling pipes across
the street. The Gas company said
they would not lower their pipes
and Mr. Saxton the man in charge
of laying the tiling says he will cut
them intwo when he reaches this
part of the work. He has served
notice to tins effect on the Super-
-1 intendent. We do not know what
the outcome will be.
I Dr John A. Lightfoot and his
I bride nee Miss Irene Fleming ar-
rived home from New York yester-
day evening on the delayed Iron

he and his lady will be "at home” to
their friends at their beautiful res-
idence from this time on. We send
our greetings to both wishing them
the best of luck in all that is good

I Lightfoot today who lias just re-
turned from New York and the
East and lie tells us he is satisfied
Bryan has the election “grabbed."
iHe said: “I never saw such en-
thusiasm for any man as that for
Ury.in wherever I stopped in
New York (not Wall street) most
10l the badges worn were for Bryan
Bryan's pictures are largely In the
'majority in shop windows (hi
Wall street you cannot find a Bry-
an picture but every bank and
money shop has up a McKinley pic-
ture." The Doctor thinks Bryan
will carry Illinois Ohio ami Indiana.
Mr. Tom Whit mash and lady

Mr. Allison Scott who came here
last fall and established a saw mill
near Mandeville has been absent
two months in Indiana. He traveled
all over the state while absent with
a patent right machine he w is sell-
ing and on his return here tells us
that Indiana is as certain to go for
Bryan as is any of the southern
states. He says the farmers up iu
Indiana ■are more enthusiastic for
the free silver candidate than those
he meets down here. This is a tip
to the Republicans to not bet their
money on Indiana. Mr. Scott has
been a citizen of Indiana for many
years —living at Madison and he is
for Bryan tooth and toe-nail. This
is the kind of news that makes us
feel glad to relate.
A gentleman in this city started
out today to make up a purse to
ecure the election bulletins for the
public to be pasted up in some con-
spicuous place. Now Messrs. Smith
and Ross offers our people a good
thing in this line and why should
they meet with opposition? If a
man is not able to pay 25 cents or
50 cents the prices asked he is not
interested enough in the news to
stand up in front of some saloon all
night to read bulletins penciled
on tissie paper. At the opera
house there will be seats for all
and the house will be warmed up
if the night is cold and this is the
best deal our people could ask. We
hope the gentleman will recognize
this fact and let us sustain the en-
terprise now on foot.

PARTY TREASON.
The Arkansas Democrat Denounced
by a Bryan and SewalClub
of Little Rock.
The Fourth Ward Bryan and
Sewall club of Little Rock held a
meeting at their voting precinct
on Thursday night and after being
addressed adopted resolutions con-
demning the course of the Arkan-
sas Democrat tor not supporting
the platform of the national Demo-
cracy on the question ot free sil-
ver and also refusing to support
three-eights ot the electoral ticket
put out by authority of the State
Central Committee. The resolu-
tion reads:
Resolved That we unhesitatingly
place our disapproval and condem-
nation upon the Arkansas Democrat
and denounce it as unworthy of
party support patronage and res-
pect.
— - • «•* ♦ - - —•
Just as soon as Mark Hanna
“saves this country" lie will have
erected large towers in all Demo-
cratic cities and have bells put in
them and will issue curfew orders
to make Democrats hunt their holes
when it toll* the hour set apart to
retire. When a poor man votes for
McKlnlev he is voting a ball and
chain to his leg and a servitude
worse than slavery.

STREET IMPROVEMENT.
Mr. Saxon with his city prison-
ers (six in number) commenced to- i
day to put in the tiling acrossl
Broad street at the State Line
crossing to carry off the storm wa- ]
ter that finds its way down the j
streets running north and south. 1
He says the gas and water pipes!
encountered a few feet from the j
surface give him much trouble as
to sink his pipes below them would I
be out of reason and to place them
above would throw them too high.
The gas company does not wish
to lower the pipes as all who un-
derstand the gas system know that
the pipes must be placed in the
ground in such a manner as to
drain themselves or else they will
stop up with water aud shut off
the gas and to lower the pipes at
anv poiut would cause a pocket to
be made and would be a constant
source of trouble not only to the
gas company but the consumer of
gas alike. How this trouble is to
be obviated we know uot but we < 0i
know that these improvements oi j
taking care of storm water aud
running it from the surface is of as
much importance to our city as any
other improvement we can make
and our aidermen should meet aud
have a thorough understanding
about the matter before these
pipes are placed in the ground and
tl<n the work will not have to bt
done over again. < >
Mr. Saxton said it would take
him sometime to place these cross-
ings under ground but he would
keep his force of prisoners at work
until he completed the job. He
said when asked that the street
would be all right and safe for
Ringling Brothers’ circus to parade
on by the 24th from State Line to
where the street car turns up Wal-
nut street.
Suppose a free coinage law is in
existence and suppose some foreig
ner who did not like us was to come
here for the express purpose of
hurting us with his silver how could
he do it? He would bring enough
silver bulion to have made a thou-
sand dollars. The government
would take the bullion and stamp it
and hand the dollar back to him.
How would he hurt us? I know what
you will say that he will trade his
silver for gold and take his gold
away. Will he? Where will he get
the gold? Go to the treasury and
get it? Not under bimetallism.
The government does not agree to
swap dollars. What else could he
do? He could trade silver dollars
for something else. Something we
have to sell and if that man will
let us know when he is coinming we
will meet him at the train with a
brass band and escort him through
town and show him the property we
will be glad to exchange. -| W. J. 1 1
