Mrs. W. J. Allen has returned
from a protracted stay at Arkadel
p MA, whittier she went TO place her
ir FAINT son under treatment of DIR.
Dale. We are pleased 20 know that
the little patient was greatly bene-
fitted by the treatment received.
We are really curious to know
what kind of cry the pops" Of
n iller county, will raise, when the
returns of Democratic victory, in
this county, are known. VIII it be
something new2 or Just the same
0 d hoary chestnut, fraud" Time
a one will tell
One Of the largest crowds of the
S asOn will be that in attendance
on the Firemen's ball in this city on
Thursday evening, the 23rd inst.
The affair is in the nature of ben
cit for our excellent hose and lad
der company, and deserves the en-
of our people.
The big fog whistle or siren was
blowing at Sandy Hook one day re-
Gently when a deaf old gentleman
at Atlantic Highlands, N. j., put
bis hand behind his ear and said,
while his face beamed with pleas
IRE. That's the first cornet play
ing I've heard in thirty years.
Democrats want fair play and a
fir election, and, ''by the Eternal, -
they are going to have these things.
All this cry about fraud" etc, on
the part of the opposition, is pre-
I aratory to Getting themselves
Gown easy" with an excuse and pre-
t ext. They know that they are de-
lated already.
The Populist candidate for Con
eress, from this district, John NJ.
Pittnan, of Prescott, Ark, is a
typical member of the so-cdlled
Peoples Party" having been an
"ofIice-seeker, of the most persis-
tent kind, for years past. OF such
material is the party of the third
part" composed.
Our citizens are anxiously await
ing the perfection of postal ar
Judgements for a free mail delivery
Z t this place, which will add greatly
TO local service. The postal service
here, is under excellent manage
rent, and with the free delivery
dded, Texarkana will have reason
TO boast of its mail service.
The old form of postal note has
heen entirely abolished. A new
form of money order, superseding
he postal note and the old form of
money order, came into use July l..
he new orders are more like postal
notes, coupons being attached to
how the amount they carry. The
charges for the new order range
from three to thirty cents.
There is little or no news from
the seat of war today. Advices
rom both China and Japan are
mum, as to military movements,
since the battle of Songhwan, in
which the Japs crowned their arms
With so complete victory, and the
chinese suffered defeat, which was
lfterward turned into utter rout
by the redoubtable "Japs."
AS predicted by us, the speech OF
Ion, Minor Wallace, atOxford, yes
erday, was a perfect masterpiece
If eloquent oratory, and had the eff
ect of rousing genuine enthusiasm
IN the breast of every Democrat
present. With such men as Minor
Wallace in the field, the cause OF
Democracy is safe, and an increas-

Never was there a better cause,
nor one more ably defended than

fore the bar of public opinion, in
Miller county, in which the Demo

Populists, Republicans, ct al, are
defendants. That the verdict, as
