The Forrest City times., 1892-09-30

We believe the ladies especially read | IRE TIMES with a great deal of pleas ure. TnE TIMES tries to give them all the local news. 1t is their friend. Now TIE TINES is going to ask fa- vor of the ladies. We want every married woman who reads this item to | insist that her husband call around and pay what he may owe for sub seription. The men invariably forget all about it, owing to a press of other business. The ladies can do us favor | in this way which we assure them we need and will appreciate.
 Elder J. II. Cason occupied the pull pit at the Presbyterian church Sunday night. Rev. Hearon giving way. His subject was "Behold the Lamb of God who taketh away the sins of the world, 1" and as usual Mir. Cas0n interested his hearers very much indeed. To one who had heard the able sermon of Rev. | U. J. Hearon, in the forenoon on the text Christ who is our Passover was Sacrificed for us." it seemed a contin- uation and conclusion of one great ser mon on the efficacy of the blood of Jesus in washing away the sins of | IF ankind.
 | St. Francis county noeds the new courthouse and jail of which we have so often spoken. Judge Coffey could add no gi eater glory to his administration than by crowniDg it, at his last term of court, with an appropriation for this purpose. The county can build these public buildings and not increase the present rate of taxation, and in the language of another, as we are pro gressive people we should not fail in any undertaking that will develop our county and build up the people. The money paid out for the buildings will go into the pockets of the laboring men.
 You are business man; you live and have being in the town where you do business; you like to see prosperity and growth in all things that bring business to your door. 4 newspap-rdoes much | towards bringing about this state of af- fairs. Furthermore. you will die some of these days, and you will want a nice obituary-an obituary that will say you were liberal, public spirited man, when you were as stingy as old nick. Of course, THE TIMES will print your obituary all right enough, but the ques- tion now before us is, are you contribu- ting anything to the support of the lO- cal paper. If not, why not? Ali ad- vertisement in these columns will bring you comfort.
 As the season is getting late, and no one has thus far volunteered to call d meeting of the farmers with view to organizeing a wheat growers associa- tion, THE TIMES has concluded to take it upon itself to do so. If nothing comes of it, there is no harm done, and if good results, then we have done that much more for the people. Now there fore we invite all who are interested in wheat growing to meet at THE TIMES office Saturday, October Sth. at o'clock D. m., and we will then see
 what can be done. If too many should
 attend to be comfortable, will adjourn to the Court House. If you are inter- ested iu the upbuilding of this county attend the meeting,

 On Monday next will occur the third
 grand fall opening of A Friedman &
 Co.,. attention to which is called in a large three column advertisement in this
 issue. Mfr. Friedman recently visited the Eastern markets and made per
 sonal selection of one of the most com plete and desirable lines of dry goods. clothing. ladies underwear, cloaks and
 notions, mems furnishings, etc., ever offered in this city. Their reputation
 for low prices aud square dealing is too well known too require mention, and in every instance d positive guar antee is given. Our people are be-
 ginning to recognize the desirability Of seeing Friedman's stock before mak- ing purchases, which, of itself, is the highest encomium that could be passed upon them. Owing to holiday. their store will not be opened tomorrow
 until o'clock p. m. after which hour they will be pleased to welcome their friends.
