Take Notice I!

" CR1NG THE past week we
4 have tolerated in silence the
a coarse abuse poured out
without provocation by the
blackguard OF the Scranton Republican
upon two gentlemen prominent in tn"
publication of this paper Neither
Congressman Connell nor Postmaster
Ripple is unfamiliar with this kind of
vitupnration. but lest present silence
should be misconstrucd, we now take
occasion to say i'm their behalf:
II j. A. Scranton courts q compare
son of records. either political, COM
merCial or personal, he can have all he
wants of it. If he wishes 10 involve
the ticket claimed by him as a fac
tional property i'm a destructive war Of
factions he must settle that with the
nominees and their friends. We are
not particularly anxious to enter into
personal journalism nor to embarrass
the fall campaign, but if forced to
drastic measures i'm self-prOtectiOn, we
shall endeavor to provide interesting
literature for the perusal of whom it
may concern
This is not a threat nor is it chal-
lenge. 1t is a notification that the
limit of patience has been reached and
that beyond that limit lies war with
out compromise.

ROUNDLAP COTTON BALES.
To Satisfy the. Demand The Entire Crop Will Eventually be
 So Baled.

For once the cotton planter has an ally among the great corpora tions. For years the cotton tie ring, the bagging combine and the com press people have all lived off the cotton grower. There was no way to fight them and so they grew rich on their enormous profits, which the farmers had to pay. Now the American Cotton Company with it's Roundlap bale is in the field and it is so revolutionizing the cotton hand ling business that many of the old expenses are necessarily wiped out. The farmers must inevitably get a large share of this saving, but the old compress people and the bagging and tie trust are raising great c0mmotioh against the Ameri- can Cotton Company as though they had always been the friends of the farmer. Unfortunately for them they never played the friendly act be- fore and now the farmers doubt the sincerity of their repentance.
 The Roundlap bale is the trade mark name given by the American Cotton Company to it's round bale to distinguish it from all other balesl The cotton mills of New England ane of Europe are eager buyers os tEis bale because as compared with all other bales it has many adyan- tages covered by broad patents, which greatly lessen theycost of man. ufacture to the mill. This Roundlap eliminates two or three processes in manufacturing and as the cottoL mills of the world are willing to pay more for this cotton than any other must in time be put up in this Roundlap form. MT. Wm. c. Lowering, one of the most distinguished cotton mill men of New England, says
 ''I do not hesitate to say that the time is coming when the cotton manufacturers all over the world will insist that their cotton shall be delivered to them in the form of a Rounlap bale"

CITY COTTON WElGHERs CHARGE 15C PER BALE IN
 VIOLATION OF LAW.
IMPOSITION ON FARMERS.
Act No. I43 of Last Legislature Fixes Price at Weighing at
 Five Cents Per Bale

Upon complaint of some of the farmers of Jefferson county who have their cotton weigbed by the city weighers, we publish the act passed by .he last Legislature re garding same, and entitled an act for the marking and weighing of cotton, approved March 29, 1893.
 The act is as follows:
 "Be it enacted by the General As
 sem5ly of the State of Arkansas:
 Section 1. That hereafter it shall be unlawful for any person or persons weighing cotton for or by the authority of any city of the first or second class or incorporated towns, to charge more than five (5) cents per bale during the months of October, November, December and January; and ten (10) cents for and during the remaining months of each year for weighing and marking cotton.
 Sec. 2. That any person vioating the provisions of Section l of this act shall be deemed guilty of a mis- demeanor, aud upon conviction shall be fined ln any sum not less than ten (I0) dollars nor more than twenty-five l25) dollars.
 We understand that the city welghers ot Pine Bluff are not com plying with the law, lnasmuch as they continue to charge 15 cents per bale for weighing.
 1We further understand that there is city ordinance allowing them to do this to the detrlment of the farmer, as well as non-compll- ance with the act passed by the leg islature. If there is a city ordl- nance allowing such, the first sec tion of the act passed by the legis- latute makes said ordinance unlaw- full (and subject to fine of not less than $10 nor more than $25) for any person or persons weighing cotton for or by the authority of any city of the first and second class to charge more than cents per bale during October, Novepa Der, De- cemher and January, ard 10 cents per bale the remaining part of each year.

built by such a method as will give every person in the city a chance to be interested h the en- terprise. We understand it will be by the organization of stock com pany py popular subscription. We know the loss of an opera house now and the Amarican people are ever lovers of the art of acting. We never know we want water till the well runs dry, and now that we know the want of an opera house, in one. of the bestsshow towns in the south, let every citizen own brick in the new building It's a good thing and should be pushed to com. pletion by the citizens cooperating with the business mems Commercial League.

THREE OF A KIND.
R R. Watkins, of Waldo, Offers the
 Fair an Exhibit.

Superintendent Westorook has re- ceived a communication from R. R. Watkins, of Waldo, Ark, in which the Fair is offered an attraction that will prove new to the many other every day attractions. Mir. Wat kins wants to exhibit his three boys, triplets, and sent a picture of tbem to Superintendent Westbrook in O. der that they may be judged accord ing to their merits. The manage. ment. no doubt, will secure the trip lets. The picture sent by Rr. Wat kins sells for 25 cents. We believe these are the three little fellows who were named Dewey, Sampson and Schley.

EngIand's Ultimatum.

London, Oct. 12.-FoIlowing is the text of the reply to thes Boer ul- timatum
 "Cham oerlain to Miner, High Commissioner, Sent 1O:45 a. m., t..10-Her maiesty's govern. ment have received with great re. .gret the peremptory demands of South African Republic conveyed in your telegram of October 9. You will inform the government of the South African Republic in reply that the conditions of the demand by the South African Republic are such to her majestys government that We deem it impossible to dls- cuss."
 Judging from present appearances the Boers are preparing for a simul- taneous invasion at hve separate points, Laing's Nek, Kimberly, Vryburg, Mafeking and Lobatst. Therefore it is almost impossible to guess the plan of campaign.
 A dispatch from D1rban dated Thursday morning at o'clock an nounces that the Boers seized AL bertine station and demanded the keys which were delivered them by the station master who reached La dysmlth on tram car. The excite. ment at Ladysmith is increasing and the troops are ready to act at a moments potice.

Ben Doyle, the Insane Man, Who
 Has Been in Jail,

This [Friday] morning Ben Doyle, insane, who has been confined in jail here for several days, was taken home. His wife came after him and after requesting that she be allowed to take him home and care for him, be was released from jail. Doyle is not violent. As heretofore stated in our former issues of Tuesday and Wednesday,, all Doyle does is to make signs, climb rope, and say his prayers. He does not nor will not speak 10 anyone.

HERE'S YOUR CHANCE.
Everybody Get Together and Push the
 Thing Along.

The citizens for some time have mourned the loss of an amusement house. Everybody has talked about it, but DO ooe has started the move ment. To equalize the benefits that may accrue financially, and to cause an interest that will be wavering, the Commercial League has taken the bull by the horns and started a movement on foot to build new opera house.
 Pine Bluff is a city that can af- ford a first class opera house. The citizens are lovers of the art and have ia the past given a liberal patronage to all shows that have appeared here and deserved it. Other places not as large as Pine Bluff. not as well financially to cope with the times, have modern opera houses; and they are a source of nleasure to all. We believe and hone that this movement on the mart of the Commercial League will meet with approval of the citizens, and success should crown the ef- forts of the League. It will be

Ills the rumor whose influence swiftly ex-

The paths they must sean over which they
have gone:

search night and day
For the point where their journeying first

It's wondrously luckily life's wayfarers are
