Change" because that is. the only way to get rid of paying more taxes on the old Court house. Vote "For Russell ville' because she has generously offer ed enough money to build a Court house if the County Seat goes there.
 The question is now before the peo- ple whether they wifi take a,nicc, clean, safe and substantial Court house at Russellville FREE of cost, OR BE TAXED to have the old dingy; rickety concern at Dover patched tp again to use for q little while until another storm comes along and again aemolislies it.

 Pope county sends thirteen pupils to the. A. 1. U. this year. The delega- ton left Wednesday so as to be on hand and ready for the opening of the term. Among those who left we got tic fol- lowing names: Misses Florence Fruit, Dora and Lillie Harkey, Alice IIarkey !; also Messrs. James Packer, Lawrence Russell, Charlie Churchill, T. F. Oates, Will Durrum, Cloyd Williamson, Macy Bernard, Joe Bradley. Also one young lady whose name we did not get, from lively little Atkins. 'N
 All kinds of erroneous rumors will be circulated to deceive the people in the County Seat matter. For instance we have heard that it is told in some To- Caiities that Dover will repair the Court house if it is voted to remain there. This is not true. If the County Seat remains there that old house will be repaired at the expense of the county. It is also said that the bond given by Russellville is illegal. This is false again. The bond is legal and valid and if the County Seat comes here will be paid in currency.
 -RussELLvILLE HIGH ScuooL.-We call the attention of the public to the fact that Prof. Doggett's school will open next Monday. We are proud of this school and think that it should meet with hearty support and a most generous patronage from the people of ths county. There is no reason in the world why we should not build up a first class school here. Prof. Doggett is the right man to do 1t and he should have the hearty cooperation of all our people. '*s'tS
 --I.ET EVERY MAN GO TO THE PoLIs.- It is altogether probable that before another general election after the one just at hand the basis of representation may be, changed, not only for State but also for Congressional purposes. The representation Pope county will then get will depend entirely upon the vote she casts at the election on the 2nd proximo. Hence the necessity of every eloctor in the county going to the polls and voting. Let US vote our entire strength and thus preserve our infu- ouce and status in the politics of the State. ~
 @-CLosE RUBBrNG.-If the County Seat is voted to Russellvillc on the sec ond day of iiext month at all, tits going to be by very close rubbing. Those who arcin favor of it remaining where it is and having the County Court at its October term levy tax to repair the old house are working like beavers, and it will take the vote of every man who is in favor of a removal to defeat them. If the people of the county want to escape the tax and accept the donation of Court house at Russell vile FREE, it will take the vote of every man in the county who is in favor of the change to secure that end. If just one ntan who favors the chauge stays away from the polls, we may be defeated. If we are defeated we may look out for a Court house tax for the next five years.
 CHAD TO SEE ir:-The other day we took a look ht the inside arrangement of AIessrs. I. NJ. Harkey & Bros new brick drug store. The inside work and painting Is now all done. and tic estab- lishmcnt is going to be one of the hand somest drug establishments this side of Little Rock. The proprictors have ordered an entire new outfit of glass ware for the shelves, of the latest and handsomcst style. Passing up stairs we were surprised to sec the second floor fitted up and fully supplied with tables, drug mills and all sorts of apa- ratus for manufacturing the popular medicines of which Messrs. Harkey < Bro. are proprietors. Of Harkey's Colagoguc we found large quantity on hand in process of manufacture. Tables were covered with bottles of 1t ready for stamping and labelling and boxes of it were piled up around the room awaiting shipment. The popu- lality which this medicine has attained in 30 short time attests it's worth, and
