HON. JOHN ('. YANCKY
Sketch of One of the Candidates
f-or Circuit Judge of This
Judicial District.
The Ratesville News of last
week contained the following in
| teresting sketch of Hon. Jno. C.
Yancey, who is a candidate for
circuit judge:
Mr. Yancey came to Arkansas
and engaged in the practice of law
in 1874. He was first associated
with lion. Ed Mathes in Critten
den county, and in ‘70 and ‘77
with Col. Bob Crockett in Arkan
sas county. He located in Bates
ville in 1878, practicing1 law alone
for several years and then form
ing a partnership with Col. 11. 8.
Coleman, with whom he practiced
a number of years. After dissolv
ing partnership with Col. Colt
man, Mr. Yancey’s practice in
creased until he felt the need of a
partner, and having an applica
tion from F. 1). Fulkerson of Mis
souri, they formed a partnership,
the lattpr having one fourth inter
est in the business.
Mr. Yancey is one of the most
energetic and enterprising men
who ever lived in the state, and
has done more for t he develop
ment and advancement of the pub
lie interest m this section than
any man in it. He has always
been found in the I rout rank of
any movement for the upbuilding
of the country. He was the advo
cate and chief factor in securing
the building of the Batesville
branch of the 1 ron Mountain rail
road in 1883; organized and incor
porated the Batesville Telephone
Co. in 1888, being president of
the company for ten years; organ
ized and incorporated the Key
stone Manganese and Iron Co. at
Cushman, being manager and at
torney. the employment of a large
force of men and the shipment of
large quantities of ore residting
therefrom; was one of the leading
factors in bringing about the in -
1 provement of White river and
1 brought about the extension of the
| railroad to Cushman; promoted
and organized the Arkansas Puos
phate Co. for the manufacture of
fertilizers; was the promoter of
the movement to build the railroad
up White river, and on invitation
of the railroad officials drove the
first spike which started the ex
tension of the line which will be
one of the most important in the
state. He was the prime movei
and urged the matter through the
city council for the establishment

GAVE UP SUPPORTER.
“ 1 wore a supporter for four
years, to keep up my womb,”
writes A\rs. S. J. Chrisman, of
Mannsville, N. Y. “ My doctor said
no medicine would help me. After
taking Cardui 1 gave up my sup
porter and am now well.”
j of our splendid water and light
plant.
Mr. Yancey began the agitation
for a federal court in Batesville,
when no one believed it could be
secured, enlisting the support, by
petition and otherwise, of the bar
and public men in this section,
which resulted in the court being
i located in this city through a bill
introduced in Congress by <xen.
i Neill.
itt? wits it iiiemvtjr ui liic uuusc
I of representatives from Indepen
dence county in 1885, being re
j cognized as one of the strong
members of that body; was elected
mayor of Batesville in 1889 with
out solicitation on his part, and
declined a second term- His ad
ministration of the ofhce of mayor
was in every way creditable and
marked an epoch in the city’s his
tory. It was such a record as he
and his friends and all good citi
zens might justly be proud of. He
suppressed gambling, banished the
vagrancy and cleared out all the
loose and disreputable characters.
In 1892 he was chairman of the
Democratic congressional commit
tee, and in 1900 represented this
congressional district in the na
tional convention which nominat
ed Mr. Bryan the second time.
Upon the organization of the
Business Men’s League of Bates
! ville, Mr. Yancey was elected
president, and over his protest
was re-elected and is now the pres
ident of the league.
Mr. Yancey is regarded by
members of the bar as one of the
I best lawyers in the circuit; and
this, with his untiring devotion
to the upbuilding of the business
interests of this section, will give
him a strong following in every
county in the circuit.
TO REDUCE ILLITERACY.
The latest bulletin of the De
partment of Commerce and Labor
| shows that the illiterate population
of Arkansas has decreased from
l<>7.8 per 1,000 native white child
ren from 10 to 14 years of age in
1890, to 110 in 1900.
\Ye now have the opportunity
to take measures that will cause
illiteracy in Arkansas to decrease
in the next decades much faster
than it did in the ten years be
tween 1890 and 1900.
Let the people of Arkansas
adopt at the next general election,
in September, 1906, the proposed
constitutional amendment that will
allow the state to increase the tax
levy for school purposes from 2
to 3 mills, and the districts to in
crease theirs from 5 to 7 mills.
With the better schools and ad
ditional school days that should re
sult from increased school funds
illiteracy in Arkansas could be
started toward the vanishing
point.
Terrific Race With Death.
“Death was fast approaching.
writes Ralph F. Fernandez, of
(Tampa, Fla., describing his fear
i tul race with death, “as a result
of liver trouble and heart disease,
which had robbed me of sleep
and of ail interest in life. I had
tried many different doctors and
I several medicines, but got no ben
efit, until 1 began to use Electric
| Bitters. So wonderful was their
j effect, that in three day? 1 felt
; like a new man, and today I am
I cured of ail mv troubles.’' (iuar
