FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1904.
A Chicago journalist is in Little
Rock for the purpose of writing
a book about Governor Davis.
That man has struck a gold mine.
The past week has been beauti
ful weather for “making hay
while the sun shines,” and the
farmers have been making good
use of it. __________
It seems that Cupid is making a
botch of his work over in St.Fran
cis county. Nineteen couples of
his victims were granted divorces
in that county at the recent term
of the chancery court.
During the past ten days the
Japanes have sustained the most
serious losses, since their war with
Russia began, but the lighting en
ergy of the Japs has not diminish
ed in the least by these* losses.
Arkansas carried off the tirst,
prise at the World’s Fair, over all
competitors for having the great
est number of plates of fresh fruit,
and the best display of fresh fruit
on opening day, and in the scoring
of the apples the judges pronounce
them the best that they had ever
seen on exhibition.
Good citizens are the best asset
of which any town may boast.
Men of breadth breadth of mind
and breadth of shoulders, and
breadth between the eyes; these
are the sort that go to the front
and push things before them. Men
of this class say “I will,” and one
of them is worth an army of the
sort that say “I wish the other
follow would.”
The fact that Cleveland and Hill
are such enthusiastic supporters of
Judge Parker for President has
led The Journal to rather doubt
the advisabity of nominating him.
Cleveland is the greatest political
traitor this country every knew,
and if a man subservient to Cleve
land's influence should get in the
White House, there’s no telling
what might happen.

ly, but crops are needing rain.

As the millinery season is nearing a close,

get the best that money can buy. Our stock is
selected from the best the market affords.
