ANNOUNCEMENTS.
To the Voters of Texarkana
Texas:
am a candidate for re-election to the
office of Assessor and Collector of Texar-
kana Texas election In April next. You
have elected me several times to fill this
position and my fourth term of two years
each Is about to expire. On this acconnt
I have been reluctant to further tax your
generosity hut I have recently received
unsolicited proffer of support from so
many citizens of the town that I feel it is
the wish of the majority of those Interest-
ed that I should fill another term.
I can only refer to my official record to
the committee of expert accountants who
annually examine my books and to the
Finance* Committee ot the City Council to
examine and report on my monthly collec-
tions and disbursements.'
1 respectfully request your support and
I promts If elected for the coming term to
trv to perform the duties of the office as
faithfully and impartially as I have in the
past. Respectfully.
WILLIAM E. ESTES.
Texarkana Tex. Jau. 20. 1099.
Statement is made that sale of
E. & W. collars is a violation of Ar-
kansas’new anti-trust law. Some-
body ought to jret the opinion of
the Attorney General of state.
Hot Springs record of tive men
killed in one day is the bloodiest of
any city in either Arkansas or Tex-
as. Texarkana years ago used to
be tough but she was never near
that bad.
With a large standing ar.ny to
support the taxes or the people of
this country will be greatly in-
creas’d and their liberties materi-
ally curtailed. A large standing
army is only a protecting to the big
rubber trusts and a menace to
American freedom.
According to reports of the com-
mercial agencies trade is booming
in every line; and our foreign trade
is much larger than ever before
known. Better times should come
as a result of all this coupled with
the big crops raised in this country
last year. We certainly hope so.
Gov. Jones pardon mill continues
tolgrind at the eld stand at rate ot
one to fourevery day or two Still
our legislature Is tardy in making
an advisory pardon board like Ten-
nessee which would cost the state
nothing. The Atttoruey General
and Auditor could easily assist the
Governor In all applications for par-
dons.
Broad street certainly shows up
well since it has been paved with
our natural cement gravel. After
being used awhile It is almost iiu
possible for a pick to dig down into
it which shows that It serves its
purpose well. Os course it Is not as
good a* vitrllied brick but all the
same is several hundred per cent
better than the sand and mud we
have had for years past. Vitrified
brick can easily be laid upon our
macadam within a few years and
at about one-half the cost before
street was graveled. The Tkaah-
kanian Is proud to see the Improve-
ment just made for It has worked
hard for It for nearly seven years In
educating our people up to such 1
great!) needed necessities.
Our railroad eommiaaion cannotJ
perform miracles—too much should I
net be expected of it. It will take'
several years to properly adjust ev- t
ery thing. And nobody should want
to cripple the railroads as they are ;
our greatest civilizers and develop
ers; and they pay nearly ooe-sixth '
of the state taxes so we are told.
Let us make hasteslowly but surely |
Frw people be they men or worn-1
I en be they only friends lovers or
I married can help occasionally hurt |
ing each other's feelings. Accidents
are continually happening even j
when people are good-tempered. |
And for quick or evil-temper d ones
there is but one remedy —the hand-
some honest apology. The most .
perfect lover is he who understands
how and when to apologize.—Ex.
The esteemed Brinkley Argus has
doubled up in name—last page of
paper is now called “Wheatley En-
terprise” and is devoted to a small
town of this name which gives the
paper a nice advertising patronage.
Good—when business men of one
place will not sustain a paper let it
reach out when possible like the
Brinkley Argus. When dull sum-
mer season comes Texarkan papers
might add a New Boston or Ash-
down feature.
Some time ago when a heavy case
of shoes was sent through the mails
it was thought the limit of postal
■ usefulness was reached says the
St. Louis Chronicle. A yellow pup
tagged and stamped has now been
taken from a New York box. As
there is insufficient postage on the
dog he will be sent to the dead let-
ter office and how long will he be
kept there? With cases of shoes
poisoned candy and yellow pups go-
ing through the mails a vast postal
field is opening.—Ex.
Postage to be Reduced Une Cent.
The enormous increase in the
number of letters carried in the U
S. mails makes it certain that the
rate of postage must eventually be
reduced to one cent an ounce. The
President who succeeds in getting
such a measure through Congress
will hold a high place in the esteem
> of the people but no higher than
the esteem in which everybody holds
e Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. This
• medicin* has an unequalled record
i in reducing the sickness of mankind
s It gets at the starting point of dis
> ease by acting upon the stomach
t direct helping that important or-
r gan in its duty of digesting food
1 It makes good appetites allays ner-
» vousness stimulates the kidneys
s and makes run-down men or women
• feel |ike a new person. Try it.
n Here is a pretty kettle of “ero-
’ baltned" discipline for a relish after
j the embalmed beef. President Mc-
' Kinley asked Mr. Secretary Alger
l to resign in order to hush up the
’ scandal and Mr. Secretary Alger
• tells the President-nit not on your
liver pad! And then be says all the
incompetents he appointed during
. the war were on the recommenda-
C tion of the President. Alger thus
acknowledges that incompetents
were appointed by him but that
j they were appointed to pay Markies
political debts—yet there are those
who still say that this is a govern-
( ment of the people by the people
C and for the people! If so who are
the people?

Cancer often result* from an im-
purity in the blood inherited from

THE COMMISSION ORGANIZED.
I
New Ready for Bu*iue*»—C S Col-
lin* Made Secretary and Hi*
Son Stenographer
—
Saturday morning the Arkansas
‘ Railroad Commisson met at the
state house with Messrs. Robert
I Neill J. G. Wallace and H. W.
Wells present. The oaths of office I
were administered by Associate
Justice Carroll D. Wood of the
! supreme court after which the
i commission proceeded to organize. 1
General Neill was elected chairman.
1 Hon. C. S. Collins of Little Rock a |
well known lawyer was the unani-
' mous choice of the commission tor
j secratary J. N. Collins bis sonwas
chosen as stenographer.
Several preliminary questions
were discussed and the following
communication prepared for sub-
mission to the goveinor:
To His Excellency Governor Dan
W. Jones:
The undersign d lately appointed
Railroad Commission of Arkansas
would respectfully report that they
have qualified this day as such atd
are ready to enter upon the dis-
charge of the trust imposed upon
them by law.
After a careful examination of
the act creating the commission
we find that there are several
■ errors and omissions in the act
■ which are probably eversights and
' which can be corrected by a sup-
‘ plementary act without changing
• very materially the structure of
1 the law as it was evidently intended
s bv the assembly now in session acd
■ without adding to the expense of
' the commission. As we understand
: the act without such amendments
> the efficiency and convenience of
' the commission will be seriously and
• unnecessarily affected and there
will be danger of controversy at
least as to the placing of certain
costs against the state which should
be borne by those who for their
. own private ends may appeal from
- time to time to the commission. We
: have little doubt that when the
members of the general assmbly
’ have their attention called to the
errors and oversights in question
they will without hesitation correct
’ the same.
1 We respectfully ask that you re-
fer this communication to the house
i of representatives where the act
- in question originated with a re-
quest that it be referred to the
railroad committee in order that
j such committee may consider the
subject and report by bill or other-
wise. Respectfully

A majority of the members pres-
ent voted for Dr. Sullivan’s resolu-
tion exempting certain manufac-
turing industries from taxation for
’ a number of years but unfortu-
. nately six votes were lacking to
i pass it as the law requires that a
majority of all the members elected
shall vote for a measure of this kind
in order to insure its passage. With
a full attendance the resolution
would no doubt have been adopted.
There were twenty-two absentees
and they were responsible for the

ant measures that has come before

Yesterday was an all day sunny
one and many were the gay equip-
pages that trotted through the
street with well tilled seats of sight
seekers and pleasure hunters. The
Edwards Harness company did a
good business in renting wheels
having out some twenty or more.
The youngsters stuck to the six
blocks on Broad street and the re-
porter spent an hour watching
them race up and down the six
blocks of graveled roadway. The
street cars did a good business
and the livery stable proprietors
had nothing tn kick about when
the dav was over.

An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy.
Syp.up OF Flos manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co. illustrate
. the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
i tive principles of plants known to be
J medicinally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive cleansing the system effectually
dispelling colds headaches and fevers
s gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
I every objectionable quality and sub
'■ stance and its acting on the kidneys
' liver and bowels without weakening
or irritating them make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used as they are pleasant to the
taste but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants by a method
