Mr.. ]. B. Stewart of the Cove has
furnished us some stalks of wheat of
Golden CHAT variety measuring 6 feet
in height. heads inches long and well
filled. He thinks his crop will do to
harvest the last of this week. This va
riety of wheat is thought to be well
adapted to this latitude as it seldom
fails to make good crop.
Fresh bread every day at Bernard

From parties who we're present at
the speaking at Appleton on the 18th
inst. we learn that Mallett, Wharton &
Co. received most genteel skinning
lin political sense at the hands OF
our young friend Horace Bradley. 1t
is safe to say the democracy of Griffin
township will presen. an lmpregnable
front to the enemy this year.
Call and examine the best hay rake
on the market at,
GARDEN & LOVES.
We have been unable to get a
full report of the township prima-
ries for this issue. Freeman, Allen,
and Northfork townships held no pri-
mariss, Bayliss sent two delegates unin-
,tructed. The instructions, for the
which have so far made re-
turns, stand on governor: Eagle 26,
Fishback 81. Hughes Is, Rector 2. The
convention will be held Satur-
day.
Call on G. B. Gerber for reapers,
self binders and hay rakes.
Every machine fully warranted.
The following mention of some of
Pope coGnty's citizens we find in the
asst issue of the Searcy Beacon. "a
olIy party, composed of E. A. Darr, of
Atkins, j. f. Battenfield and j. h..
Shinn, of Russellville, and r. A. Dow
lie, of Morrilton. guests of w. f.. Bar
ton and w. z. Martin, (by whom they
were accompanied) went down. to Bar
Der lake Tuesday morning, for two or
three days sport"
The Russellvile contingent of the
party above mentioned, returned home
and report magnificent time.
For the best wagon on wheels call
on c. B. Gerber. Will trade a wagon
for a good work horse.
We learn that an effort will be
made to establish telephone line from
to some point on the rail-
road. OF course it will be more to the
interest of Caglesville to have commnn-
ication with the county seat than with
any other town, and the proper effort
of our business men could easily secure
the building of the line to this place.
The fact is there ought to be central
exchange here with lines radiating to
all parts of the county. Once used the
advantage and convenience of the tele-
phone will be quickly realized and the
system will bound into public favor.
Let our business men move in this mat
ter.
With first-class baker and new
oven we guarantee first-class bread.
