From Hon. G. ID. Carter. late
Superintendent of Schools for
the Chiekasaw Nation, who ar
rived here from Tishomingo
yesterday morning. it was learn
ed that a bill 10 rebuild the
Bloomfield Academy had been
introduced to the legislature,
which he firmly believes will
pass the house. He also says
that the census commission are
the hardest worked set of men
he ever saw, but has great con-
fidence in their ability to give
correct judgment on every case
arising before them.

MARKET LETTER
Furnished the Ardmorelte Daily BY n.
B. Beer Of New orleans-An later
estInG Cotton Ststenenn
Thursday. Oct. u. '96.


Dear Sir-The unfavorable
course of Liverpool market to-
day caused prices to open one
point lower. There seemed,
however, to be n good steady
under current, which occasioned
an advance of one to two points
later, owing to the comparative
ly lighter estimates of receipts
tomorrow both here and at
Houston. The movement in
the aggregate is large, and this
combined with the easiness pre-
vailing in spots forced prices
down FIVE points from the top,
showing a net loss on the day of
FIVE points.
The situation remains prac-
tically unchanged, with little or
no speculation, which is due to
the uncertainty of the outcome
of the presidential election. All
operators being averse to in-
crease their lines, and in fact
have reduced them to a nominal
basis, preferring to await the
result of the election before
making any decided stand. The
unsettled conditions may have
tendency to influence wild
fluctuations, and then again we
might have a dull and listless
market until matters become
settled after the election. NeY-
ertheless, with the various fac
tors which may arise we believe
, it best to be conservative, and
think it preferable for our
friends to realize on their hold
ings on good opportunities, and
remain out of the market until
the election has been definitely
settled.
Yours very truly,
II. & B. BEER.

been opened for twenty-five or

Legislature passed a resolution
to have it opened and the con-
tents examined. The local
blacksmith did the job, and
there was found among its
contents a package of bills
about four inches thick. AL
except the top bill, which was a
50 note, was so rotten as not to
be made out. When and by
whom the money was put in
the safe is not known.

Food, undigested. is poison. Digested, it
is life and strength. Millions of us suffer
from Indigestion, but often don't know it,
We think it is something else. Even doctors
often mistake the symptoms.
Pale, thin people, who are overworked,
who need strength, who seem in want of
proper food, should take Shaker Digestive
Cordial. 1t is astonishing what food aciN do,
when properly digested.
1t will make you strong, revive you, re-
fresh you, sustain you, make you fat, restore
your color, make muscle, brain fibre, cour-
age, endurance, energy; increase your
power to throw off disease and keep you
healthy and happy.
Indigestion does just the opposite, but
indigestion can be cured and prevented with

Geo. L. Waldron, statistical editor of
The Voice, New York, III "a Study in
Family Incomes of the NationH SAYS:
That the rich are growing richer and
the poor poorer, is the tavorite tlictum of
certain class of social reformers The
Increasing wealth of the rich as a class no
Thoughtful man will deny The growing
poverty of the poor, however, is another
story which neither facts nor general OBJ
servation appear to warrant. Rather can
it be shown that the workingman to- dav,
as rule, is getting higher wages and that
then purchasing power is greater than
ever before in the history of this country.
Reading this paragraph recalled to mind
a recent statement of a gentleman con-
corning his business experience. Some
thirty odd years ago he went to work in
a store at s. a week, boarding himself.
Flour was then SIG per barrel and a suit
of clothes cost double what one of like
quality can be bought for to-day. Now a
clerk in the same position expects to start
with SO week, and flour is 81 barrel,
with other necessaries very nearly in pro-
portion.

monotonous. We have had it served up
at home in official form and it is sent

only is this untrue, and libel upon our
city but it is calculated to do great deal
of harm. Who would care to come to a
place for business OF pleasure where such
1t state OF things exists as is alleged here?

MIDDLETowN, Conn, March 25. The
Heating Bicycle Company of Holyoke,
Mass, has signed an agreement with the
Board of Trade of this city to move the
plant here as soon as a new shop, to be
900 feet long and 80 feet wide, two stories
high. can be erected Four hundred
hands will be employed at the start, pro-
vided the citizens subscribe to 500, 600
four per cent bonds. The money has
nearly all been raised and the balance is
assured. 1t looks now as if the company
could begin erecting the factory as soon
as the ground is settled upon.
This is one of the enterprises, on wheels,
that fitted athwart the vision of Belfast
people, before the city election. The
wings seem to have been clipped, how
ever, and the number of employees cur
tailed. As presented here the scheme
called not only for main building as
above, but for two wings, each one hun
dred feet by fifty and one story high; and
the number of employees WIS to be 1000.
OF the cotton mill project presented
here about the same time something fur
Their may be said. 1t was suggested then,
and subsequent developments proved, that
the visit of Mr.. Willis, treasurer of the
Southland Mills, to Belfast was mainly in
tended to incite the Richmond people to
provide the necessary capital to retain the
plant there and add to it's capacity. The
proposition here was that Belfast should
furnish 500, 600 of the $500, 600 required
to build and equip cotton mill. The
offer made in Richmond was to build an
addition to the present mill, $50, 600 to be
subscribed there, the subscribers to be
given first mortgage bonds secured by the
whole plant. While the Richmond Board
of Trade was considering this proposition,
Mr.. Willis said he had ''since learned that
the outside stockholders wanted to 90 in
on the same footing as everybody else.
They want Richmond people to take stock
and claim that their dollar is as good as
the Richmond dollar There the matter
rested. The Richmond Bee said:
Our people have done everything it was
possible for them to do to get this mill
built here. Profiting by their many manu-
featuring and building experiences in the
past, they will put no money into any
manufacturing business unless they are
protected by gilt-edged security, and in
this decision we think their position is
correct.
This refers to a business already in
operation in Richmond, and which has
since added to the plant of its mill, in
creasing the capacity about one third
But Richmond has burned its fingers in
the past, as have some other Maine towns
and evidently has profited by the expert
ence.

If an electric railway from Stockton
as business enterprise it will not cross a
500, eco bridge at the foot of Main street
but will lun through the city, and cross at
the upper bridge This would accommo-
date both extremes of the city, and the adj
ditional mileage required would be more
than compensated for by the increased
business. There are more houses and
more people between the top of Primrose
Hill and the upper bridge than between
the foot of the square and Northport
Camp Ground. Such d road would bene-
fit property alike at both ends of the city.
If the road crosses at the foot of Main
street, and the present bridges are discon-
tinued, as proposed, great in Justice will
be done to at least half the people of Bel
fast, who will have to pay tor very ex-
pensve bridge which will not answer
their requirements in the least. If objec-
ton is made because of the longer time
required in going by way of the upper
bridge-estimated at about Is minutes-it
should he remembered that by the other
route cars will be delayed when the draw
is raised, and as the larger part OF the
shipping business is done above the pro-
posed bridge it is evident that the draw
must be raised quite often. But practical
men who have looked the ground over do
not give much encouragement for build
ing the proposed road. They say there
is not population enough to make it prof
liable. But if road is built it should be
over a route that will accommodate the
most people, and not over one that will
practically exclude half our people from
it's benefits.

The Massachusetts Republicans had a
rousing State convention in Boston last
Friday. Reeds name evoked the widest
enthusiasm and the delegates to the Ma
tional convention are all for him. The
platform declares for protection, for the
Monroe doctrine, and for no change in
the money standard except by interna-
tional agreement. Hon. Henry Cabot
Lodge made the speech of his life in de-
fence of his course in Congress. The
Boston Journal says:
As Mr.. Lodge outlined in words of elo-
quence the right path for the Republican
party to tread, as he portrayed the patri-
otto course on the Monroe doctrine and
the Cuban question, and as he defended
in sentences that famed with fire the in
tegrity and honor of the American people
on the Venezuelan matter, that great au-
dience burst into a mighty cheer, which
echoed and reverberated from one end of
the hall to the other, and in the NEST en-
phatIc manner approved his sentiments.
