HOW TO BUILD UP A TOWN.

Speak well OF 1t.
Help to improve it.
Beautify the streets.
PatrOnize its merchants.
Advertise in the newspapers.
Prefer home enterprise always.
Speak well of enterprlsing men.
If you can't think of a good word
to say, keep silent.
If you are rich, invest in some-
thing; employ somebody; be a rus.
tier.
Be courteous to strangers that
come among you, so that they will
60 away with a good impression.
Always cheer up the men that &c
in for improvements. Your portion
of the cost will be only what is just,
Don't kick about any unnecessary
public improvement because it is
not at your own door, or for fea1
that your taxes might be raised tif-
teen cents.
The foregoing hints on "How to
Build up a Town" might be read
and needed by the citizens of more
than one city or town in Arkansas.
Too many people are ignorant OF
what is required in the premises,
but their ignorance is the out
growth, not of willfulness, but o1
indifference and thoughtlessness.

THE FIGHT IN The SEVENTH.
Hay Secured Some Republican Votes
A Democratic Contest.

FRONT ROYAL. VA, November IL
Special-ln an interview to-day Mr.. ID.
{. O'Flaherty said that while Hays ma
jority exceeded what ne had expected
yet he was satisfied with his canvass
and cheerfuiy submitted TO the result
That he had rather he defeated and
stand for the true principles OF Jeffer-
'sonian Democracy as represented by
the Sound Money Democrats than to be
elected as Mr.. Hay was upon a plat
form that favors debasing the currency
OF the country and the clipping Of the
dollar that represents the only pro-
perty of the poor man and laborer-his
daily wages.
When asked to what he attributed the
fact that Mr.. Hay carried the Republ-
can counties OF the district by larger
matorites than he did the Democratic
counties, he said that during his can
vass he had been asked 10 pledge his
support to the Republican administra-
ton and that he had declined emphat-
icaly to do so, and that the Republi-
cans. knowing that this was fight be-
tween two Democrats, took very little
interest in II.
He further said that Mr.. Hay had a
strong organization back of him ana had
captured large per cent of the Repub-
ilcan vote that was polled. as is shown by
an analysis Of his maiorities In the dis
trict As an Illustration. he said that
in 1896 Walker Republican, carried Page
county by 286 majority over Hay. where
as In 1898 Hay carried Page county by
$50 majority, and that in Warren and
Clarke counties, the banner Democratic
counties Of the district, he (Mr. O'Fla-
herty) had come within about 200 OF
carrying each OF them, reducing Hays
majority in 1896 about 400 votes In each
Of the last two named counties, show
ing that Mr.. Hays large majorties was
made up Of Republican counties. and
that the Democratic counties hal given
him very small maiorities.
He further said that he was satisfied
as he had received about as many votes
in this district as had been Dolied tn the
Richmond district. which is said to be n
strong sound-Money district.

there have been as severe winds on the
lake. but there never has been as series
OF storms from the southeast equal 10

1.-THE present storm originated In the
South. 1t extends all over the lake re-
gion. A peculiar feature OF this storm
is that, although IL has been felt for
thrty-six hours. It really did not develop
until late last night. Probably the worst
of the storm IS now over. The snow
which fell was quite heavy, but because
OF the damp atmosphere and rain IL did
not show up very well
The storm on the lakes have been
ssyore and several vessels are reported
lost. The wind was fully as high as two
weeks ago when the steamer Doty was
lost on Lake Michigan, between Chi
cage and Milwaukee.

them 10 shift for themselves. In their
struggles to maintain the intreDid army
which made possible the honors he now
enjoys IL cannot be said that they have
ever found IN him the inspiring COM
mander Of old.
There have been times when almost
their very existence depended upon a
helping hand from him, and It was
not extended There have been occasions
when in the midst Of their battles, one
OF his heroic dashes would have crowned
their brows with the laurels OF victory
snatched from defeat, but he failed 10
make the charge, and left them to their
fate. For period of course II was pos
sible for him to sail smoothly on Win
out his faithful followers I'm HIS wake.
But there has now come a time when no
must again turn 20 them for defence from
threatening Ills that beset him. IL IS
the dawn OF an era when Foraker must
again be in the saddle in Ohio, and
either lead a gallant army to victory or
defeat or else retire TO private life. II
he hopes 10 remain I'm the Senate he
must turn back, bind up the wounds OF
his soldiers Of other days and buckle
on the armor for the conflict which
cOnfronts him. Were there not at
every hand sufficient evidence Of the in
tentfons Of the Hanna wing the deciara-
ton Of Kinney would bs 10 Foraker a
warning cry Of future events. II, under
the crushing tactics of Hanna, his old
time following should be practically wiped
out of the political affairs OF the State,
Foraker would be as a piece Of statuary
without a pedestal or as p0werloss as a
general without a command. IL may be
stated, however. upon the best OF au-
thority that Foraker is fully appreciatiye
Of the situation and that I'm the campaign
of next year he will be In the arena.
Thus. with the feeling that burns within
the breasts Of the Hanna followers, there
is promised a battle as sanguinary as
