 Harrison, Ark, 1898.
 Dear Sir: With the general apathy now existing in the Democratic party in this state. We believe, with a strong effort to get the Republicans out on the day of the Congressional election in November, we can elect Capt. J. T. Hopper over Dinsmore. Our plan is to quietly canvass the whole dist Ilct. The work must necess arlly be done by the local or ganizations in each county. Will you see and talk with all the Republicans in your neigh borhood and urge upon them the necessity of voting on the day of election By study ing the returns of the last election we find that the stay at home Democrats will be enough to ensure our success If We vote our full strength Quietly perfect the organiza tion Ill your Township and County, and leave nothing un- done that will add one single vote to our candidate for Con- gress.

OUR ANNUAL TALK.

Uo tiulS IS at IldIiu TOT tliH annuai squaring up and paying off of old scores. We have made a rule for a number of years not 10 dun" our patrons for what they owe on snbscrip tion only during the fall of the year. We think this the best plan because we are averse to to this continual cry for money on the part of newspapers and from the fact that farmers, and the people generally, of this section have more money than at any other time, and conse quently itis more convenient for them To pay. It is unnecessary for us to dwell on the fact that the money we are asking for now has been earned by us, is due and should be pald. All sensible people are aware of this fact.
 During our collections last year d number of people sad they were unable to pay then, and asked that they be carried another year. We have done so, notwithstanding many were in arrears five or six years, and now we insist, and will have, a settlement of some kind. It is destructive for any business to continue indefinitely to carry a large umber of delinquents and to let the amounts keep on increasing year by year, and we have decided that after January l the paper will be stopped where a subscriber IS in arrears for one year or over, and the accounts placed out for collection. This determination has been arrived at after due delbe1ation and because we believe it necessary for us to do so
 It Is a very easy matter for a subscriber io ascertain how he stands on our books If your paper goes to you in a wrap Der examine the date on the wrapper opposite your name and it will show to what date your subscription has been paid. Those who do not re- ceive their paper in d single wrapper will find tue date printed on tho paper opposite their name. For instance, if your paper bears the date 5 Jnl. '97, it means that you owe from July ,. 1897, to the present date. When you read tms look at your paper and see how you stand, and if you are be- hind come in and square up and we'll start new.
 For a time We will take wood in payment of subscription ac- counts. 16 inch wood for cook stove or IS inch and two-foot for heating stoves will be ac- cepted. IT you desire to pay in wood please bring it i'll at once, as we will only take enough to last us through the winter
 Respectfully,
 JNo. F. STAFFORD.
