 For treasurer we announce, this week, the name of Mir. Joe Petty, the present incumbent.

 Among the candidates offering for the suffrage of the people is Mr. w. I, Reynolds. who desires to be reelected clerk of Pope county. During his in- cumbencv, Mir.

 MT. John ". Quinn came Into our office last Tuesday and said: "Well, boys, you can announce my candidacy for sheriff of Pope county" Without disparagement of the claims of any gentleman, who may aspire to the same position, we cheerfully assert that MT. Quinn possesses every qualification to make first>class sheriff. He is one of the present efficient deputies under sheriff IIogins, and Is thoroughly ac- quainted with every detail of the du- ties of the office, besides being honest and brave. But, John is Pope coun- ty boy and everybody knows him.
 We are authorized to state that Hon. D. Robt. Barclay, one of the most gifted lawyers and eloquent ora tors of the west, and now resident and practicing his profession in S. Louis, has consented to deliver his celebrated lecture at all the principal towns on the Little Rock and Fort Smith railway, as soon as arrangements can be perfected. The subject of Mir. Barclays lecture is, "Intidelity or Ingersolism from a lawyers standpoint" His masterly expose of the shallowness of the Inger- sol doctrine has woA for Mir. Barclay the highest encomifms of the leading journals of the west. A rare intellec- tuaf feast is in store for the people.

 The bright. springtime has come at last with it's song birds, budding trees and sweet flowers. In anticipation of this lovely season of the year, Mr. l.. Reich, the progressive proprietor of the New York Cash Store, has purchased a full line of Spring Goods and is in dai- ly receipt of the same from the leading markets of the country.

In boots and shoes, hosiery, mo- tions, trimmings, hats, etc, the New York CashStore has magnificent stock, and all will be sold at "hard time" prices.
 The report having inadvertently been put in circulation that Hon. c. $. Cunningham, who is candidate for judge of the fifth district, was in the last legislature and had voted against tue "three-mile" local option law, WIG take pleasure in stating that such was not the case. Mr. Cunningham was not member of the legislature or 1881 ., but of 1872, and, while member Of that body, voted for the "local option" law enacted at that session. He has ever been :he friend and promoter Of wholesome temperance legislation, and Knowing him as we dc, we cheerfullv attest his earnestness in behalf of the rigid enforcement of the statutes.

However, all his friends extend hearty welcome home to Mr. Prudc, and hope he will not dlsappuint them the next time he takes trip.
