I.aneburg Leaflets.

Our Nj. D. say health is remarka-
bly, good
The bulk of the cotton crop is
planted, and few have commenced
working their corn.
Oats arc booming. With plenty
of rain for the next thirty days, a
good yield will be assured.
The late heavy rains have washed
and packed land, and somewhat re-
tarded farm work, and now the cool
nights are having damaging effect
upon garden vegetables and other
tender plants.
Willie Calhoun tells me that he
and others went fishing on Caney
creek recently, at night, and they
captured the following animals OF
water, land and air: 80 fish, l fish
eel, . Lamprey cells, 6 minks, 2 coons
and | owl, end that the signs for sue
cess were not right, either.
Profs. Nelson, of Laneburg, Set
tie, Of Union, and Hannah, or Hon
eavllle, with their classes, will meet
at Mt Moriah on the 9TH Sunday in
May. All who attend may expect to
hear the best vocal music that ever
rang IN their ears. To those who
make specially of the "dinner on
the ground singings," / will say that
no inducement other than fine music
is offered, that | am aware of.
The PIcAYuNE grows in popularity
with our people each day. Once in
a while some one will speak of it as
being rather high priced, but invari-
ably follow by: IL cant do without
i" About all that is necessary to
get people to take it, is to get them
to read it and compare it with others.
May success crown your every eff
fort, Mr.. Editor, is the wish of
GOOD Luck.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, ArKIL "a, 1891.

w
The news of the snubbing given
Mr.. Harrison by the National Re
publican League convention at GIN
cinnat caused no surprise here,
where every one who is at ali posted
on political matters, knows the con-
tempt felt for the present occupant
of the White House by the leaders
Of the Republican party, chief OF
whom is Mr.. Blaine, who is now be-
lieved to have Intentionally deceived
Mr.. Harrison when he promised him
that he would net oppose his noml-
nation. 1t is now conceded that
Blaine may have or dictate the Re
publican nomination next year, and
if he allows Mr.. Harrison to be NOM
mated, it will be simply because he
will have become convinced OF the
impossibility Of electing Republi-
can.
The effect of the billion dollar
congress is beginning to be felt at
the Treasury department, and already
Secretary Foster has begun to scheme
as to how he can get the $50, 900, 900
that must be paid on the LIST Of July
for pensions. He has decided to
utilize the S1S,000,000 in silver half
dollars now in the Treasury by de-
posting them in the National banks,
thus making them available for the
Government current expenses. An
other item, aside from the Congress
sonal appropriations becoming pay
able after July /, that is taxing Mr.,
Fosters ingenuity to provide for is
the $50, 100000 OF 4 l-2 per bonds
that will mature in September. AL
though it has for some weeks been
given out that all of these bonds
would be taken up at or before ma
turity, | have it on good authority
that it is the present intention of MIR.
Foster to allow those in the hands of
the National banks to remain out
standing at reduced rate of inter
est, If the banks will consent to it.
Whether he can legally do this with
out the passage of special funding
act of Congress is debatable ques-
ton.
The Senate Finance committee has
designated as subcommittee to in
vestigate the working OF the Mckin-
ley tariff law, under the resolution
adopted by the Senate at the last
session. Senators Allison, Aldrich,
Hitchcock, Carlisle and Harris. The
subcommittee begins work next
week, and it is already apparent that
an attempt is to be made to make
Republican campaign thunder, but
the two wde-awake Democrats
Messrs. Carlisle and Harris-will
see that their end is held up.

A Cloud of Witnesses.

We know of no medicine that has
80 many testimonials to its efficiency
as 5. S. S.. the great blood purifier.
Many of the best known people in
the country certify to the marvellous
results it has wrought in the various
forms of disease for which it is rec
commended. These testimonials come
not alone from persons who have been
relieved of their sufferings by 5. ;.
S., but from people who have wit
messed the effects of the medicine.
Practicing physicians, druggists,
pharmacists fact, all who have
had an opportunity of observing the
cures brought about by this great
blood remedy-bear willing testimo-
ny to its efficacy. In its field, which
is wide one, covering some of the
most serious ailments of humanity
S. S. 5. has no rival.

ARKANSAS INTERESTS.

1t is pertinent to consider the I'M
portant question of what Arkansas
interests in the World 5 Fair IS to be,
and If our State is TO be represented
As the Legislature failed to provide
for this, we must now consider other
WAYS and means. There Is no ac-
counting the vast good it will do,
and the future benefits the State Will
get from good exhibit there.
Many suggestions have been made
as to the best way to bring about this
desired end. but the following sug-
gestions of Hon. j. NJ. Hudson,
written to the Arkansas Gazette,
seems to us the most feasible =
LET the people of the State or
ganize corporation with capital
stock of $50, 900, divided into shares
of S. each, to be known as The Ar
kansas Worlds Fair Exposition So
ciety; make Commissioner Loche its
president, and Il. b. Morrow, treasu-
rer, without compensation; call on
the people of the State to take stock
with an understanding that the Leg
islature of Arkansas will at the SEES
sion of 1898 be called upon to re-
deem said stock at par. | believe
the patriotic people from one end OF
the State to the other would come
forward to a man and take one or
more shares of stock and it being a
popular move no man would dare run
for the Legislature in 1898 unless he
would pledge himself to support an
appropriation to redeem this stock.
Let the newspapers of the State stop
abusing the State Legislature, take
up this proposition and bring it be-
fore the people, and feel sure they
will take hold of it and have Arkan-
sas represented, and that the State
will pay for it in 1898"

Have an Eye to Your Eyes.

How few think of the value of
good eyes, till they begin TO fail =:
How many have failing eyes and
don't know it, or if they know it,
are ashamed to make it known! OF
those who wear spectacles, how few
have them to fit, OF suit their eyes :
And how few know that an imperfect
fit Injuries the eye? We have for
several years made a speciality of the
eye, its study and treatment, aud
for twelve months have made a
speciality Of testing and fitting fine
glasses BY the aid of the Johnston
Dioptric Eye Meters. We guaran-
tee fit, and perfect satisfaction, and
when this is done, with good pebbles,
the eve not only ceases to fail, or as
is said. Ego from YOU" but the
sight generally improves. TO all
who wish to know if their glasses fit
their eyes, and to those who have
never worn glasses, and want to
know whether they need or would be
benefited by the use of glasses, we
offer free examination, Specta-
Giles Of all kinds furnished at reason
able rates. Respectfully,

feature of the bill 1t also denies
the charge that nearly all of the $50,
