The last session of the Arkan
sas legislature probably wasn’t
responsible for the drouth that
followed it, but a little thing like
a drouth would be preferable to
artcxtrasession of the legislature.
It is suggested by the Commer
cial Appeal that Secretary Long
is a prominent member of a
peace society and would natuuuliy
favor a non-comcatant, which ex
plains his adherence to Sampson,
Recent sessions of the Arkan

governor, have reflected but little
credit on the slate and if there is

Admiral Schley’s declaration
that he wants no civil office has
caused rejoicing among the repub
lican leaders who realize his pop

However, they need not rejoice, as
he has never turned a deaf ear to
the call of duty, and it is not like
ly that he ever will, and it may
become his duty to bold the high
est civil office within the gift of
the people.
We today tito ounce R. 1’.
Weaver, of RuUdel township, as
a candidate for the democratic
nomination for representative.
Mr. Weaver is a life-long demo
crat, is well known to the people
of the county and is well qualified
for the position to which he as
pires. In the event of his elec
tion, the interests of Indepen
dence county will be well and
honorably taken care of.

BUILDING BRAINS.
That which is, generally conceded Is generally so. It has grown into
a maxim that the Kimball Company represents the greatest aggregation
of brains employed in the making and marketing of Pianos and Organs.
Tde energy, brains, >ktll and inventive genius drawn from all parts of
the world are employed In the building of Kimball Pianos and Organs, and
the unlimited capital and the unlimited ambition of the compauy has cre
ated in the Kimball an exponent of the highest musical art. The achieve
ments of this company are unsuraassed in the history of art or manu
facture
If you are an intending purchaser, vou shout dloTestigate tha real
merits of these renown instruments, and in the face of such a record take
no man’s word derogatory to them, remembering that makers of other
Instruments, in endeavoring to build up their sales, canuot be expected
to tf 11 the real facts about our Instruments, else they’d be entitled to draw
a salary from us, and you will at all times decide on the Kimball when
the facts are kuowu. There is no instrument made today of equal value
with the modern improvements and valuable patents (about fifty) sold at
an equal price.
Investigate for yourself, as in buying a Piano or Organ you should
buy one to continue satisfactory tor a lifetime, aud mistakes are very
expensive. On investigation vou will find it all wt sav, and you can be
assured of full protection when buying of us.
