There is no danger of overstocking
the pecan market for years to come, as
England, France and Europe in general,
know very little about the pecan. A
strong point in pecan culture lies in
the fact that one can sell, or hold for
higher prices. Not SO with pears,

Congressman Terry Against Removal.


 Congressman w. l.. Terry writing to Hon. Lawrence Russell from Little Rock under date of 22d ult.. has the fol- lowing to say touching the land office matter:
 "In regard to the proposed consolida- tion of Dardanelle with Little Rock land office, will state that I have opposed the scheme from it's very inception and shall continue to do SO. It had it's origin, as l understand, in report of the inspector who visited Dardanelle some time ago ; and long before I left Washington l went to see the secretary of the interior and the commissioner of the general land office, and entered an earnest and vigorous protest against it, and so did Senator Berry and we had both supposed that the project had been abandoned until we saw special published in the Republic about the 30th of June. As soon as 1 saw 1t l wired protest both to secretary of interior and land commis- sioner Your people can rest assured that their interests in this matter have not been overlooked or neglected. have persistently opposed every scheme to move the land office from Dardanelle and during the last session of congress had to fight petition signed by nearly every republican office-holder in the State, asking to have the office removed to Van Buren. Please be kind enough to let the people know the real facts. Very truly yours, w. E- TERRY.
