OUR TELEPHONE.

TeIarkana will be the most i'm
portant telephone station in the
southwest, says manager Brown Of
the Southwestern Telegraph and
Telephone company. Here they will
center "a copper wires on IL me-
talIc long distace circuits, 3 to
Memphis via Little Rock, three to
Memphis via Pine Bluff, three to
Houston via Longview and Pales-
tine, three to Dallas via Paris
Texarkana will be the great relay
connecting station.
The long lines 20 distance points
will be operated in this manner:
Chicago will call Memphis, Memphis
will call Texarkana and Texarkana
will call Galveston, Houston, Dali
las aud any Texas point desired.
In few days a person in the
operating department in New York
will hear New York saying, Hello,
Texarkana, connect me with Gal
weston. To handle this work prop
erly new long distance switch
board will be put into service and a
corps of expert operators employed.
There will be two distinct pole
routes to Memphis and continued
service is a certainty.

A Common Superstition.

Many people believe that the
breaking Of a looking glass is GER
tain sign Of death, The newspapers
report that a mother recently be
came insane after dropping a mirror
because she feared that some of her
loved ones would soon die, There
are other signs much more danger.
Gus than this, The most common
is a disordered stomach, which caus-
es nervousness, dyspepsia, indiges'
tiun and constipation, These symp.
toms tell the sufferer that his days
will be shortened unless he sets
things right in his digestive organs,
For this purpose there is nothing so
ertain tocure as Hoqtetter's Stom'
ach Bitters, II regulates the bow
els, steadies the nerves aud whets
up the appetite, II Is the standard
remedy There Is no substitute for

The man who believes in keeping
up home industry, proves his words
by his acts: There is no use of
talking home industry aud at the
same time patrnize outside concerns.
If a man expects to make his sup

excusable in him to patronize out
side institutions, but there are few
thus situated. Most of us depend
on our home people for support
aud it is mutually advantageous
that we patronize one another

Another Wreck.

From railroad men who came in
over the Pee Gee Friday night says
that while a freight train was jog
giug along at fifteen miles an hour
between this place and Ashdown,
the caboose and one car attached
to the train, jumped the track on a
trestle and fell eight feet below.
The caboose was occupied by the
conductor and brakemen and none
of them were hurt.

We must heartily concur in the
following from the Conway Log
Cabin; The Democratic party and
the silver issue cannot be consider.
ed dead until the people have fully
made up their minds to surrender
to the trusts and combines and to
bond-holding aristocrats of the
country. The Republican tariff pol
icy is the father and protection of
the trusts and combines that are
daily forming and deyising plans to
further oppress the people and the
gold standard policy is contracting
the volume of money and making it
more difficult to pay debts, We re-
peat that the Democratic party
and the silver question will live uu-
til the people are prepared to for
ever enslave themselves.

For over Fifty Years

AN OLD AND TRIED REMEDY
Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup
has been used for over fifty years
by millions of mothers for their
children while teething, with per
feet success. 1t soothes the child,
softens the gums, allays all pain
cures wind colo and is the best
remedy for diarrhea. 1t is pleas
ant to the taste. Sold by druggists
in every part of the world. Twenty.
five cents a bottle. It's value is in
calculable. Be sure and ask for
Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup, and
take no other kind. S-5-93-ly

Well, we escaped a close shave on
bad spell of weather similar to
the one we had last winter when
all the wires in town snapped and
broke, and many of our shade trees
were stripped of their branches. 1t
was bad enough as it was, but we
must be thankful that it was no
worse and broke away for the bet
ter. We hope now that a change
tor better weather is upon us and
that the Lord will temper the
weather to us poor mortals whose
wood piles are not as large as they
should be at this season of the
year.

Negro soldiers at Admission, Ala. +,
overstepped their bounds Thursday
and ambushed several of the white
soldiers, among whom was P. H.
Gilbert, of the Second Arkansas.
After this many white soldiers beg
ged of the officers to be given arms,
but were refused, They found few
negroes, and had they done so
sticks and fists would have played
important points, The citizens of
the town armed themselves and all
negroes left town, or hid out. The
town is now patrollel by company
Of the Second Arkansas and Third
Tennessee, This is another instance
of where it is impossible for negroes
to be soldiers with the whites. If
we are to have negro soldiers, they
should be separate from the whites
and quartered forty mile from no.

The Shreveport Caucasian thus
speaks our experience-which
should not be so:
"a cotton factory" is receiving
considerable attention by the Mon
roe press. The Caucasian trusts
that the press of Monroe will be
more successful with "a cotton fac
tory" than the press of Shreveport
ga cotton factory" as a subject,
has been written and printed
thread bare. There is little warp
or wool left of it except to begin at
the beginning and rehash and re-
peat what has been said a million
times or less about the advantages
of "a cotton factory"

An Important Difference.

To make it apparent to thousands
who think themselves ill, that they
are not afflicted with any disease,
but that the system simply needs
cleansing, is to bring comfort home
to their hearts, as a costive cOndi-
tion is easily cured by using Syrup
of Figs. Manufactured by the Cal
tornia Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold
by all druggists.
