TIE Oil and Drug News, reliable

THE Oil and Drug News, reliable authority, says:
 Owing to the small crop of hops, the price has teen advanced to $1 per pound and upward, and as this price is higher than some of the brewers can afford to pay and com pete with their successful rivals, they have cast about for substitute, and have purchased largely of chamomile flowers and calumba root, and this extra drain on the ordinary supply has sent the price of these articles to an extraordinary high figure. As these articles advanced, the brewers have been obliged to look further, and some of them have secured quantities of aloes. These purchas- es have in many cases been made under cover of an agent.
 What do the beer drinkers think of this adulteration while slipping Con- rad's "Budweiser," or Anheuser- Busch's lager?

THE new map of the United States prepared under the direction of Mir. Roeser, of the general land office, is now in the hands of the printer in New York, and will soon be ready for distribution. The new map is said to be the most complete and accurate one completed by the government. It contains over 4O0O places not on the old map. These additions are mostly in the west. The rapid strides of that section render the map now in use almost valueless.

A GOOD many years ago, we knew boy who, in "fooling" with an old shotgun, shot himself pretty badly. He was very badly scared and when the physician came and examining the wound he said: "Doctor, l want to know whether I am mortally or immortally wounded?" This is the question the republicans are now asking.-Little Rock Democrat.

Methodist Mutual,

A new organization has just been perfected at Pine Bluff, to be known as "The Methodist Mutual Relief As sociation." This is nc matrimonial or self endowment institution opera ted upon plan that is self destruc tive, but is a regular life insurance company, organized upon a positive basis and is self-sustaining. It is con ducted under the auspices of the Methodist church and its Ministry and by men of unquestlonable homo and integrity. Its officers are a. follows: Rev. w. H. Browning, pres ident: Capt. G. s. Van Valkenburg secretary; Rev. J. R. Harvey, treas urer; James Gould, general superin tendent; Drs. J. A. Owens and Ed Alexander, medical directors. The rules of the order are very strict, ex cluding all unsafe risks, so far as hu man skill and experience can detect Little Rock Democrat.

WE NOTICE the press of the state is falling into line in favor of the en- actment of law requiring 8 voter to pay his poll tax before he can ex- ercise the right of suffrage. The Fort Smith Elevator says: Such a law would increase the revenue of the state to a great extent; and then, a man who does not pay poll tax, has no right to vots, anyway"

THE majority for Judge Rogers in this district foots up 2503. This success, however, is not due to the democrats who failed to vote on the 7th, but to the zeal of those who did cast their ballots for the perpetuity of democratic principles.

New Digest.

The next legislature ought by all means to make provisions for new digest. To anybody but lawyer, it is like needle in a hay stack to find out what the law is in Arkan. sas-you may find it, but it will take you long time and then you are not right certain but what It has been repealed. You have to wade through Gantts Digest and then through all the acts slnce 1874. The law ought to be digested so the common people can find them and know what they are. We venture the assertion that two thirds of the Justice of the Peace in the state cannot act intelli gently under the present system.- Morrllton Headlight.
