SCOTTVILLE PENCILINGS.

EDITOR DEMoCRAT: It has been some time since 1 have written any thing for the DEMOCRAT; so today being very rainy, and health being pretty good in the country, and 1 having more leisure on my hands than is necessary for health, I thought 1 would devote a few mo ments to a short article for your paper.
 We have had several days of dis agreeable, wet weather, which makes the farmers look and no doubt feel sad, on account of the damages to corn and cotton.

WHAT WE HAVE ACCUM-
 PLISEED.

Do the people of our county know that they have accomplished a great deal by the slight effort they put forth Tn holding the recent County Fair? Do they know that it was the most important step they have ever taken toward building up solid and substantial prosperity? Wheth CT this is generally realized or not, it is so, and if the step IS followed up as it should and must be, it will not take great length of time to prove it. It will give us confidence in ourselves at home. It will invig- crate us to greater exertions, and elevate all our aims and purposes. It will give us tone and character abroad, and win for us that respect and attention whicu only live, en- ergetic people can have. The effort we made this year was an humble one but it was good beginning and we are proud of It. We hope to sec steps taken at once to form perma- nent Fair Association. Now is a good time. Our people all have more ready money to spare now than they will have at any other season 'of the year, and some money will be necessary if we wish to make our County Fair such an institution as it should be. We want our people to be ready when this matter is brought up to take stock literally in it, for it will pay largely. Here is what the editor of the Western I'm migrant, who publishes live paper in our sister county, says of our first effort:
 On Saturday morning last we mounted a seat by the side of Capt. B. H. Burnett, on the hurrican roof of the "big yellow wagon and took a whiz over the river to. Russellviile, behind "Hank's'' four wild untamed Arabian red mares. We enjoyed the ride 'exhaustively' and the fair which we had gone to take in Gin modern fair parlance) likewise. It was the last day and the fair was breaking up, most of the county agricultural exhibits having been withdrawn the day before. We saw some fine sheep,

Kimball & Perry, of this place. We understand that everything took the premium as there were no two things alike, this of course was right. We had but a short time to spend upon the ground and we tired to improve it, for we made this visit not simply out of curiosity, but with view to the ma terial interests of Yell county, by solving the problem whether or not it IS practicable to have county fair here and our conclusion is that we ought by all means to have had county fair in Yell county this fall. It simply requires somebody to lead out. At Russellville, there seemed to be no money invested in the en- terprise, the school buildings and grounds were occupied free of charge, and answered the purpose perfectly well. an open prairie adja- cent furnished track for the trot. ters and runners, the whole concern didn't appear as though it had nee essarily cost the citizens of Pope ten dollars cash outlay, and yet they may well congratulate themselves upon this initial and most important step in the direction of prosperity. Of course this far was not equal to the State fair, and perhaps inferior to many county fairs, in other words it was the biggest thing ever done in Pope county. It has walked up and stirred up an interest in the agricul tural and natural wealth of the county which nothing else could have done. We heard such remarks (from the farmers passing about as these why I've got a bigger tur- mp than that, ''or q potatoe larger than this.' five got colt at home
 
 which with two weeks attention would out show anything on the ground" and in fact all those who had come out of curiosity merely were sorry that they had not brought something. They intend to do it next fall, and mark our words next year Pope county will have fair right, and of which any county may be justly be proud. And now what say you fellow citizens of Yell county, shall we not have a fair next year2 Speak out, let us hear from you while there is ample time.
 Let us follow up the step which we have taken. And let us follow it up, too, with hearty good will, and not like q snail.
