GOVERNOR JEFF DAVIS
SPOKE IN TENNESSEE
Was Greeted With “Come Over to
Tennessee and we Will Elect
You Governor.”
Dyersburg, Tenn., April 6—To
day was the forty-third anniver
sary of the battle of Shiloh, and it
had been selected as the most ap
propriate day on which to unveil
the beautiful Confederate monn
ment which has just been erected
on court square in this city. The
attractive program of popular
speakers drew to Dyersburg one
of the largest if not the largest
crowds that ever gathered in the
“Queen City of the Forked Deer.”
The crowd is estimated at from 8,
000 to 10,000 people, or, as an old
farmer put it, “there were about
eight acres of folks.”
1 he crowd began to arrive on
yesterday, and Senator Frazier,
Geo. P. XV. Woolen of the comp
troller's office, Editor Cunningham
and Miss Pope of the Confederate
Veterans, and Misses Skeffington
and Lauderdale of Nashville were
among the early arrivals of not
ables. Senator Carmack and Col.
Luke W. Finley of Memphis ar
rived from the south about 11 p.
m., while Governor deli' Davis of
Arkansas and Hon. Mecenas Hen
ton of Missouri arrived on the
early trains from Memphis this
morning. There were hundreds
of other prominent people from
over the state in attendance, in
cluding representatives from the
state legislature and many old Con
federate captains and colonels and
soldiers who came to see the com
rades and enjoy a reunion.
The industrial school band from
Nashville, the best in the state
was also on hand.
Gov. Jeff Davis held the crowd’s
hearing from the shirt, and plainly
let them know that he was an un
reconstructed rebel still and had
no apologies to offer to any Yan
kee, living or dead, for himself,
for his father, or for his people.
He said he liked the crowd and it
seemed to him really that they
are as good as the crowds in Ark
ansas. Some one yelled, “if you
come over here we will make you
governor. *’
Governor Davis made a line
talk on the character of Jefferson
Davis, the president of the Con
federacy, and exhorted the people
to revere the memories and tradi
tions of the old South. He was
frequently cheered in the course
of his speech, and when he closed
men and women pressed around to
shake his hand.

VERY ECONOMICAL
CITY ADMINISTRATION
-.
Jacob Tells of The Many Ways in
Which the Sulphur Rock City
Dads Save Money.
Editor The Journal:
Will you be so kind as to allow
me space to give you a few items
from our little city? It is beauti
fully situated in a valley three
! fourths of a mile from the White
' River branch of the Iron Moun
tain railroad, 10 miles east of
Batesville and 20 miles northwest
of Newport.
Our electric cars make connec
tion with all trains. When you
are once on the car and the motor
man pulls the throttle and says
“come up,” you are as good as
there provided they don’t fly the
truck.
Our city is noted for good wa
ter. good schools and pretty wom
en. There has been but few
changes in the last few months.
I)r. T. A. Bevins and <). L. Hoov
er have moved down in town. Dr.
Bevens now occupies the house
formerly occupied by the W. K.
Rice Merc. Co., they having mov
ed into the Dorr Merc. Company’s
old stand on the corner. (). L.
Hoover occupies W. X. Gram
mar’s old stand.
everything was going on as
nice as a new pin, on election day,
when all at once the city was!
thrown in a state of wild excite
ment over the killing of a negro,
and the wounding of three or four
others. Ves, she was shocked
from center to circumference, and
it came very near breaking up our
election, but after everything
quieted down the election went on
as if nothing had happened. We
succeeded in electing the same old
dads, with the exception of Dr.
W. T. Huddleston, who was drop
ped out and Dr. 'I'. A. Bevens was
elected in his stead. We all
thought it best to have one doctor
in the bunch.
We couldn't see any use of mak
ing any very great change as we
had the most economical set of
city dads of any city in the state.
They haven’t collected over $1,000
or $1,500 in the last two years and
they have repaired the side walk
on Main street, using new planks
when necessary, built over fifty
yards of spank-fired new walk,
hung two new iron gates to the
Spring park and had the park
nicely plowed up by the hogs. I
see a few cows in there occasional
ly to keep it eat down so as to save
mowing later on. They have
built three or four bridges from
T2 to 30 feet long. C. F. Smith
is highly pleased over the election.
He says that he will stand a chance
of getting his walk moved back
from the alley to its former place
on the corner at his place of busi
ness. For fear of taking up too
much room in your valuable pa
per, I will close. If this does not
find the waste basket you may
hear from me again. Jacob.
Sulphur Rock, April 6.
SNAKE WITH TWO HEADS.
This office lias just been treated
to a real curiosity, a real snake
with two well developed heads.
The reptile is in the possession of
Mr. W. S. Cullens of .Jamestown.
It was found in some small stream
in the mountains beyond .James
town and was first exhibited alive
at this place. After being kept
for some time it died, but no one
can doubt his real snakeship.
When it crawled about one head
was moved so as to rest on top of
the other and when he licked out
one tongue both tongues appeared.

SENATOR J. H. BERRY
GIVEN AN OVATIONS
His Appearance on the Floor of th«
House of Representatives Crea
ted Wildest Enthusiasm.
Senator James II. Berry .spent
Thursday of last week in Little
Bock. He visited the house of
representatives and was given an
ovation which lasted for several
minutes.
He entered the hall while the
roll was being called on the pass
age of a bill, and the roll call was
suspended. He finally responded
to the cheers with a short address,
in which he said that no words
could express his gratification at
the kindly reception. lie said
that it was not a time nor place
when he should attempt to make a
speech, that lie was not there to
instruct the legislators, but on the
other hand had always deemed it a
privilege to receive instructions
from them. Senator Berry recall
ed the legislature of I860, during1
which hq served and was the
youngest member, and in 1873,
during which he said twenty-nine
democrats sat for four months and
thwarted the designs of the car
pet baggers, lie expressed his
gratification that one of the twen
ty nine in that body was the late
\\\ H. ('ate, father of Speaker YV.
YV. Cate.
The Gazette says that he declin
ed to discuss his plans for the
coming campaign, and declared
that his only object in visiting
Little Rock was to meet his
friends.
The prospective battle between
Senator Berry and Governor Dav
is for the former’s seat in the sen
ate is attracting much attention in
political circles. It is expected
when the campaign opens it will
develop into one of the hottest po
litical battles that has ever been
waged in the state. It was thought
at one time that there would prob
ably be three or four men in the
race, but the field has been left to
Senator Berry and Governor Dav
is, and it is not thought likely that
any other candidates will appear.
It has been reported that Gov.
Davis would open his campaign
immediately after the adjournment
of the legislature, although Sena
tor Berry’s present term does not
expire for nearly two years.
There has been no announcement
as to whether joint debates would
be held, but it is expected that
this form of campaigning will be
adopted: At the last Democratic
state convention it was provided
that the candidate for this office
receiving the highest number of
votes in the Democratic primary
in March 1906, shall be the nomi
nee of the party for United State*
senator.
Ex-Senator H. M. Grant who
has been a prominent, figure in the
affairs of Arkansas for the last
fifty years died Thursday night.
