PUBLISHED WEEKLY,
OSCAR F. CRAIG, Editor.
FRIDAY, MAY 2,1902.
The man with the hoe will soon
be in evidence.
Col. A. S. Fowler has been
appointed United States marshal
for the Eastern district of Arkan
sas to succeed Henry M. Cooper,
Facts gathered by competent
statisticians prove that the cattle
shortage is not near so large as
the beef trust represents it to be
and that prices could not have
been advanced on this account.
A bill appropriating money for
public buildings in many places
passed the House this week. It
carries an item appropriating $50,
000 for a federal court house and
po8loffice building at, llatcsville.
The committee appointed to
meet last Monday and make a re
count of the votes east in the re
cent primary, met at Batesviile at
the appointed time, but owing to
the failure of the dissatisfied can
didates to put up the money nec
essary to defray the < xpenses,
nection it might be said that, from
all accounts, one ,1. *1. Gray is
taking quite a prominent part in
the proceedings. We are reliably
informed that he offers to put up
$10 and also to serve on the com
mittee to re-eounla bsolutely with
out pay. With all due respect to
Mr. Gray, it seems to us that this
is carrying hi* generousity almost
to the point where familiarity
breeds contempt, inasmuch as he
has two brothers and a son who
were candidates before the pri
mary. From talk we hear on the
streets and elsewhere we judge
that the gentleman could best
promote his popularity by turning
off the gas just a little.
CHARGES AGAINST DAVIS.
The chaiges prefered against
Governor Davis by the Second
Baptist church of Little Rock, of
which he is a member, is causing
no little comment. Governor Da
vis emphatiely denies the charges,
bays he can prove himself inno
cent and promises to spring a sur
prise on some of the leading

members of the church when the
charges come up for trial.
The people will watch the out
wiine with interest, and should
the governor win out in this, as
he has the leputatiou of doing in
all other things, he will nave
heaped more humiliation upon
the heads of his enemies. At any
late lie is entitled to the benefit
' of the doubt until ‘lie charges are
proven. The following from the
Commercial Appeal on the suh
I jeel is sensible, and we heartily
endorse it.
“The people of Arkansas arc a
proud people and they have great
respect for the high office of gov
ernor. They require much from
those upon whom they confer this
great dignity and they are quick
to condemn anything tlmt is cal
culated to din its luster. It
j should not he forgotten, howevei.
j that mountains are sometimes
made of mole hills and that what
one holding an exalted public oi
tico is condemned tor doing, an
J other man may do without at
trading the slightest attention,
it is quite probable that Governor i
Davis has taken a drink while j
traveling on tlie ears. Other gov
ernors. and very good governors,
have dune so without attracting
attention. One can scarcely j
think of anything more natural
than to hand ;:n unfinished flask,
or bottle to some old colored
man. It is done every day in tin*
year. It is very difficult to see
how political enemies could take
up such harmless incidents as
these and magnify them into
d imes of greatest turpitude. It
is not difficult to conceive how
well-meaning church members
could he misled by the flare and
faufaioiiade of political conflict.
J lie public, unless swept by pas
sion, is fair-winded, and a fair
ini tided public should be slow in
reaching :i conclusion on so im
|>"rt»nl a matter. Governor Da
vis seems contident that the
charges preferred against him
cannot be proven and that they
will tall to the ground. As he
must suffer to some extent in any
event, he should not be con
demned until proven guilty be
yond all doubt.”
John Austin and Mrs. Maggie
fcjliirey have let the contract for
the erection of a brick store build
ing to contain three rooms and
work will be commenced immedi
ately. Contractor Joblin, of
Katosville, has been awarded the
contract and left the first of the
week for Little Rock to make ar
rangements for brick. The build
ing will occupy the sjiace on Front
street between Murphy & Moore
and Griffith & Morrow, thus clos
ing up the gap and making that a
solid block of brick business houses.
W by don't the town have a
ditch cut from the pond just west
of the depot and connected with
the ditch alongside the road that
leads out through the bottom and
get that pond of water out of the
town? It could be done at very
little cost and should hy all means
he done. Such a pond of water
that must necessarily beeome stag
nant through the summer is un
healthy, besides it does not speak
well for the town to have such a
place inside the corporate limits.
It makes a bad impression on peo
ple passing through on the trains
and no doubt causes many people
to think the town is located on the 1
edge of a swamp and is the home !

Headache
kills, not necessarily suddenly, j
but SURELY. It preys upon the
intellectual powers more than
we realire. It consumes the
vitality faster than nature can j
replenish it, and we cannot tell
just what moment a temporary
or complete aberration of the
mind will result. Headache and
pain should be promptly re
moved—but properly. Many j
pain cures are more harmful
than the pain. Beware. If
you would be safe, take

The house of Hollenberg lias placed Pianos and Organs In
thousands upon thousands of homes iu Arkansas and the
Southwest. Many of our leading teachers and musicians have
been educated on these Pianos and Organs. The constat aim
through all these years has been to sell only such instruments
as would prove a pleasure to the purchasers and a testimonial
of our fitness to serve the public.
The enviable.record of forty-nine years continuous business
not only demonstrates.that fact beyond contradiction, but is
proof positive that our theories of offering the least price on
reputable instruments, instead of attempting to charge the
highest obtainable price, is recognized and appreciated.
That we sell more Pianos and Organs in Arkansas than all
others combined, is additional proof that we can and do sell
line instruments at a less price than any or all competition can
meet.
If you desire a Piano or Organ it will please us to fully dis
cuss with you the many advantages we offer. Call to see us or
write. Your inquiries are solicited and will receive prompt
and courteous attention.
