Int,o-.ant Decision in a Lumber
Case.

Judge Hokc, Of the Tucker coun-
ty (W. Na.) Court, has just handed
down his decision in the matter Of
the assignment OF the Hulings Lum-
Der Company. This case involves
several hundred thousand dollars,
an immense lumber plant-saw-
mills, booms, etc.-and $4,000
acres of the finest limb 7 land in
the State. The company was Or
ganized in 1885 by Il number Of
capitalists, and the town of Hull
ings was laid out. Last fall, dur
ing the tightness of money, the
concern made an assignment. and
the cry of fraud was raised by the
creditors. Two sales took place,
neither of which were confirmed by
the court, and finally commission
was obtained, and the court was
enjoyned from taking further pro-
ceedings pending the report of the
commissioners, who finally stated
that the claims over which the
charge of fraud had been made
were free from the least faint Of
chicanery, and the decision handed
down by the court holds that the
deed of assignment is valid, thu
preferences contained therein per
fectly legal, and dissolves the in
junction stopping the sale.

In response to an invitation to excurt from

In response to an invitation to excurt from Madison to Wittsburg from that prince of good follows and steamboat man, Capt. o. K. Jop- lin, of the steamer Gayoso, now running in the wittshurg and Memphis trade, quite a a number from Forrest City, Madison and other points availed themselves of this choice mode of enjoyment. The 6:30 D. m. train, with the Forrest City representation quickly over. came the short distance to Madison. where we joined more of the like inclined, and whiled away the interval between boat and train time in the pleasure of dance, promenades. beauties of water, landscape and solar system views. which, however, was not of monotonous length, for soon the usicall, famihar and soul stirring notes of the steamers whistle rang out upon the silent evening air, and echoed from the waters and jungles of St. Francis river bottom, as a signal for the turning of the railroad bridge which spans the river at that point. Bright showered the electric lights slowly around swung the pondrous gate of welcome, and with a dull thud, cheered by emanations from the Madison brass band, the neat little craft kissed the soft crumbling bank. Aboard we wentif twas a l'abandon, we got there all tbe same. A few minutes for exchange of freight. the bell taps. the brave little boat plowed through the waters like q thing of life, sending a ray of electric light far ahead among brush and drift wood, to aid the pilot in his duty to the safety of life and cargo. As the foaning waves from her prov bathed the underbrush and hanging houghs, on we sped, now and then welcomed by lonely light on bank or bark. as many landings at the pre- sent stage Of water are represented by craft of some kind, upon which to convey freight. The onward course of the faithful vessel the pa- tient, keen-eyed watchman on hurricane roof, wrapped in weird robe of dim light from the of the forest which line the banks, were re- hected in contrast by the mingling Of souls of merriment and pleasur down in the hospita- ble cabin. The goddess, lured on by the pro- verbal charm or music by Forrest City's string band clalned the most devotees and only pauslng to honor the delightful luncheon Of cake, cream and tropical fruits, haif-past four d. m. found us lying at the elevator at the foot our sleepy destination. our lights revealing evidences of Il once thriving Village and now q numerous and energetic population whose familiar cognomen ia buffalo gnat.

HoN. F. J. PHELPS, minister to Great Britain under Cleveland's ad- ministration, jnstilies the action of the people in doing up" the Maiia assas- sins, and as to the future results says: "I think that the effect, on the whole, may be good one. It may serve as a rebuke to the inefficient courts and jurors In that and other parts of the country so many murderers are let off scot free that it has become almost !, matter of course for them to escape punishment except in cases where the whole community is aroused and makes justice its own particular active concern. Courts will not be re- spected so long as their members are yulgarized by dependence upon peliti- cal trading, intrigue and management for positions of power. If this were not so there would be no lynchings After all, the recourse to the might of the people, deplorable as are it's incl dents and consequences at times, is a penalty which we pay for our greater freedom of government. Ours, on the whole, is the best political system in the world. Our people are happier than any other, and the manly self reliance which is one of the character istics of freedom, is worth the pay ment of very dear price,

THE democratic party is prone to let little things go by, not needing them of sufficient value to be noticed. The losses by the party during the last local elections throughout the country, although small, should be needed as notes of warning In the history of the past all divisions of party have re- eulted disastrously, and unless perfect unity and harmony are brought about the next election will put us under the ban of four more years of republican misrule, which means an end to peace md prosperity in the South. There fore, we urge the putting aside of all aide issues and work tor unity in the putty.

 "One thing this state needs, and needs badly, is good country roads. The benefits to be derived from them are but imperfectly understood by the great mass of our people Good roads mean everything to a community, and 1t has been aptly said that i'll the agri- cultural localities they mean the iffer- ence between prosperity and adyer- sity; in towns they mean the differ ence between growth and stagnation."
