tending to locate the murderer Of John M. Clayton, is dead. Since his death it has developed that Wood induced Governor Eagle to pardon q certain Conway county convict in order that he might return to Plum meryills and by ingratiating himself with certain lawless persons there, obtain valuable evidence against the assassin. Detective Wood finally made & report to Clayton and Me Clurs in whose employ he vas, but Tor some reason his report has never been made public, although it has been repeatedly called for. Wood promised to give the Governor g detailed statement of his work, but returned to Chicago without keeping his word. There are contradictory statements as to what the report con. tained, the one now most generally credited being that the investigation disclosed the fact that Clayton [ murder was not a political crime.

Potts Station Points.

"A stitch ln time saves nine, would be great saving to many if properly applied. Now that winter is here and the work of gathering is about over, the next thing in order is providing good comfortable guar ters for stock. A good, warm, and dry place for stock during the cold, rainy or freezing wintery weather is both human and profitable.
 "What's good for the goose is good for the gander." Treat all your stock to such quarters alike; with good feed, and kind treatment, and your net returns will be surprising, Feed stuff is scarce this winter hence the importan ce of good quarters for stock. And the man who fails to provide such will be loser.
 It is surprising that farmers are so slow to see the disadvantage oi the "all cotton crop" It bringi with it hard times all along the line of family and stock supplies, scarcity of corn, wheat, oats, peas, potatoes hay, fodder, and even badly work cd and improbable garden. The boys and girls are kept at home to make a cotton crop. Work hard to raise and gather it, then you have to sell it for just what you can get Bought goods on long time with ' big per cent added. Nov when the whole thing is wound up, and your debts al paid, ia rare thing now s days" you, your stock and land are all worse for wear, you are out oi money, corn, flour. bacon, etc, and the worse thing in the whole busi- ness is the neglect Tn mental deyel- opment of the children. No sir, you can't begin to educate your children and hold on to "king cotton" you have no time for sociables, reading. or mental improvement, whatever, No time to make the necessary i'm proyements about your home; to make it comfortable and attractive to your children, s thing every farm CT should do so far as It is in his power, make home attractive ts the children and save them of having to leave home, especially the boys often leave the farm and go to the city to seek amusement, livelyhood etc. To all such as are so inclined, would advise to stay on the farm, and with your mother too, If you are so for tunate as to have one, until you are Fl yes, 25 years old Then if you have acquired very good education (and you ought to by that tune, and would f you would apply yourself to your books, and saved up a right snug little living, perhaps you would do well to purchase little farm then seek the helping hand of some fair maiden.

A Valuable Property For Sale

We call attention to the adver- tisement of the sale of the Melrose Cotton Mill, of this place, which will take place on the 24th day of Janu- ary, next. This is without question one Of the most extensive and valu- able plants ID thls State. The ma chinery is all of the latest and best patterns, and was made at the shops of the best known cotton machinery manufacturers in this country. The utmost care has been taken, and con- stant attention given, to keep every piece of it in good order, and the entire plant is practically as good as new. The machinery is set and ar. ranged h the substantial stone and brlck building which contains it, with direct and special view to ease and economy in producing and handling the product of the mill, which is cotton rope, cotton wrapping trine, warps, yarns and cotton batts. The Melrose make of goods is so well known in all the leading markets that they have always commanded ready sale and found free takers at the outside quotations, and even now, although the mlll has been shut down for nearly two yesrs, there is constant inquiry for the goods. The mill has a capacity for sn annual out put Of 100000 to 100000 pounds of goods, and being located in the very heart of a large cotton producing territory is admirably situated to make goods at the minimum cost. The facilities for converting the raw material so convenient at hand, at this mill, into goods at a largely en
 hanced value, are uuquestionabiy very superior For instance; fuel is abundant at Sl.50 per cord for best steam producing wood, and S250 per ton for coal, at the furnace. Labor here is more reliable and more eff cient and cheaper, because it is re- moved from the interference and in huence Of labor organizations, the dcleterions effects of access to sa looms ana drink shops, and because all commodities of subsistence are plentiful and cheap. The raw ma. terial is right at hand and can be passed right from the gin to the preparing machinery without that compressing and crumping Of the fiber which eastern mills have to contend with and which makes spin ming so much more difficult The saving of frelghts, bagging & tiese waste Tn handling in transit, etc, is 6 large advantage and ueighty ar gument in favor of spinning cotton here rather than in the east.
 We apprehend those interested in cotton spinning win watch the date of thls sale, and that not few will seek the acquisition of the property.

Toward Prosperity and Wealth

A delegate to the Christian Church Sunday School Convention writing to the Little Rock Gazette gives the fol- lowing as his impression of live and growing town; "RussellvilIe's new bank building, now nearly completed Is the handsomest bank structure in Arkansas. The law office of James Fowler has the most fnishsd appear snce of any ediflce of that kind in the State. A Boston firm is reported as about to purchase the cotton factory.
 New residences are going up on all sides, and the town is on genuine ascent toward prosperity and wealth. The public school has an enrolment of 45o, and Ia in most excellent condition. State Superintendent Shinn gave the school personal visitation on Friday and announced himself well pleased with the work. This school is doing as good work as any in Arkansas.
