FRIDAY, OCTOBER ‘20, 1005
President Roosevelt will make
liis first visit to Arkansas next
"Wednesday.
Senator .I no. P. Loyan lias with
drawn from the race for gover
nor, because, he says, it is so ex
pensive a poor man cannot make
the campaign.
A new method of suicide has
i»een introduced by a Ilot Springs
mian, (ius Zeigler. Becoming en
raged at some of his relatives for
some trivial otFence, he procured
a couple of bottles of cheap whis
key, which he drank, and in a
idiort time was dead. That's too
cxtravigant. Why waste a dollar
on cheap whiskey,when morphine,
carbolic acid and strychnine are so
cheap?
The yellow fever situation at
T»'ew Orleans is greatly improved.
Only six new cases were reported
Tuesday and the authorities think
the end is in sight. There has
been a total os 3.335 cases and 43f>
deaths from the fever in New Or
leans alone. There are a few scat
tering cases in Mississippi, but the
reports from there are very en
couraging also, and a few more
days will probably witness the end
of the scourge.
Referring to the repeated sug
gestion that when his present term
is finished the people will demand
that he again be a candidate for
the presidency, Mr. Roosevelt
stated to some friends at Washing
ton a few days ago that he would
not allow himself to be a candidate
in 1908, and that he was as tirm
now as he was when he tirst made
the announcement of his determi
nation. He said that the conscious
ness of this unalterable resolution
was the complement of his free
dom from pledges when he enter
ed on the oflice. It made him free
to act as he thought was right,
gave him great satisfaction, and
enabled him to enjoy his official
life better than he could if he were
striving for some political ambi
tion.
HGHT IS ON IN EARNEST.
Fresideat B. 11. Burnett, of the
Arkansas division of the Southern
Cotton Association has just issued
the following announcement to the
people of this state:
To the people of Arkansas:
The tight is now on in earnest.
We anticipated its coming and the
future prosperity of the people of
the south depends upon the farm
er.- presenting a tirm and deter
mined front, at every point, until
the enemy is driven back discour
aged and broken. I call uj>on the
people now, to use every legiti
mate means in their power to ral
ly the farmers, merchants and
bankers of our state, to permit no
spot cotton to be sold at the pres
ent unwarranted, unauthorized
and depressed price, which has
been caused b.v manipulation and
the issue of a government bureau
report of doubtful value. You
fully realize the condition of the j
crop in our state, and know that j
the yield will be far short of the
1904 crop.
In many parts of tin* belt pick
ing is almost finished. There is
no top crop to mature later, under
the most favorable conditions, as j
was the case one year ago. 1 call
upon the people to at once hold ;
mass meeting in every township in
the state and pass strong resolu
tions, condemning tb*4 present un
warranted attack on the market
by bearish speculators, and then
determine to stand firm and hold
every bale that can be financed.
Our southern bankers and mer
chants have abundant funds to !i
nance the situation and protect the f
producers who must have some
funds. The situation at this time ;
is critical and we must win at any
cost. 1 appeal to you to let us get
right down to business and in two I
weeks we can win a notable vic
tory. We can and must win this j
fight. Yours for the prosperity
of the south. B. II. Birnktt.

ranged to grade the public school

, ment of a small tuition, and the
board has placed a contract for the
publication of a catalogue contain
i ing the rules, courses of study,
i rates of tuition, etc., for the pur
: pose of advertising the school.
The Journal hopes that the board
may be successful in establishing
a first class high school, and sees
| no reason why it should not.

re elected as principal for the
coming session, with the following
able corps of assistants: Miss
Fannie Blalock, first assistant;Miss
