THE RAILROAD COMMISSION
SHIP.

The Arkansas Gazette, who has
it's ear to the governors telephone
or at least it appears so to us, has
this to say in regard to the way the
commission plums will be dished
out to the candidates:
"In regard to the personnel OF
the commission the McCain-Niel-
Handy possibility mentioned in
these coumus yesterday created
no little interest, though ther,
we're many who argued that the
appointment of Mr.. Handy as one
of the commissioners was not GER
tain and that judge W. Z. Avera,
of Camden, or ]. w. Harriss, OF
Texarkana, might get one of the
plums. In case Judge Mccain de-
cines the supposed tender, the gos-
sips mention Judge L. C. Balch,
whose friends say he is the father
of the railroad commission move
ment away back in the legislature
of 1887. There is apparently no
let up on the part of those appli-
cants-and their name is legion
who are not mentioned ia the Nc.

ARKANSAS SILVER MINES.
Silver City, Ark

AAAAfNA NANff
February II, 1899
Jules a Gibson, Texarkana, Tex
as. In answer to your letter of in
.ouiry concerning this section of the
country as rich mineral region,
and the outlook for a thorough de
velopment Of the vast wealth that
lies hidden in the mountains and
qulches of Montgomery county, |
will give you brief summary of
what has been done in the past IN
the line of mining operations and
the present status of our mining
enterprises
The late Diamond Joe Reynolds
did the first work in this camp in
the way Of opening mp silver mines,
and was successful in developing a
mine of very high grade silver ore.
His last shipment of ore to the
Chltteuham works at st. Louis
netted $4,000 to the ton. These
shipments were made from the
property at Silver City, called the
Minnesota Mine and which is
now operated by the Housley Bros,
of Hot Springs.
The "Montezuma Mine" now Sc
cured by patent from the govern
meut, is one of the best properties
in the camp Sam Rinaskopf re-
fused an offer of $l25, 600 for this
mine.
The walnut mine now in litiga-
ton, has produced some Of the
highest grade ores ever unearthed
in this or any other mining camp,
There are numerous other mining
properties here which have shipped
o e to the Kansas City and Aurora
reduction works and realized very
hlndsome profits. Among them l
might mention, "Elnora, j." Water
Il)o," "Black Lodi, and Minnie
! Kramer. The last named is in
full tide Of successful operation and
is now sacking up ore for shipment.
With the advent of Spring we an
ticipate some extensive operations
in the line of mining enterprises, for
it has been demonstrated that in
this mineral belt a-e vast deposits
of wealth that only await the
magic touch of skilled labor backed
by capital, to unearth the hidden
treasures which are destined to
make this one of the richest mining
camps IN America.
have given you a brief outline
or sketch of this mineral region
yet sufficient to give you an idea OF
the fabulous wealth which the
grand arcaua of nature has in re-
serve for capital, nerve and skill ed
labor to develop.
Affectionately your brother,
FRANK PEAS.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYEUP OF FIGs, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA Flo SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by method

A COMMON TROUBLE.
Thousands Suffer From It Without
Knowing Its Real Character.

No trouble is more common ol
more misunderstood than nervous
dyspepsia. People having it think
that their nerves are to blame; are
surprised that they are not cured by
nerve medicines and spring RENE
dies; the real seat of mischief is
lost sight of: the stomach is the or
gan to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not
have any pain whatever i'll the
stomach, nor perhaps any of the
usual symptoms of stomach weak
ness. Nervous dyspepsia shows it.

in nearly every other organ; in some

sour risings and heartburn.

fublishsd the following declaration

"rhe government of the republic has
given my liberty. But liberty is
nothing to me without honor. From to-
day I shall continue to seek reparation
for the frightful judicial error of which
I remain the victim.
81 wish France to know by a defini-

"ALFRED DREYFUS.-
RENNES, France, Sept. 2l.-Captaiu
Alfred Dreyfus left the prison i'll which
he had been confined since his return
from Devils island and proceeded to
Vern, where to took train to Nantes.
His departure was completely un-
noticed.
NJ. Viguier, the chief of the secret
service, and the project, NJ. Dureault,
arrived ut the prison after midnight,
bringing the minister of wars order for
tine release of Dreyfus. The latter
walked from the prison to the Bonle-
ward Laenne, where he entered a wait
ing carriage and was driven to the Vern
station, outside the town. Matthieu
Dreyfus met him at the train and ac-
companied him to Nantes. While this
dramatic turn in the Dreyfus DRAMA
was taking place all Rennes slept, and
the departure of the famous prisoner of
DEVILS island was no more noticed than
that of an ordinary traveller.
NANTES, Sept. 2I.-Dreyfus arrived
here from ReDneS, accompanied by his
brother, Matthew Dreyfus, the chief of
the secret police, Nj. Vlguier, and one
policeman The. party travelled as
ordinary passengers. The Dreyfus
brothers a1ighted Oh the platform first,
followed by NJ Viguier. VINO inquired
if they could have a private room. A
waiter replying in the affirmative, the
brothers entered Il room and ordered
two glasses of milk, while M. ViguIer
and the policeman remained outside in
baC puDilC I'LL.
Inquiry was then made concerning
the Bordeaux train, which, they were
informed, left at sos a. N. All four
then entered first class compartment,
i'll which there were already other pas
sengers. Ii was iatended, by thus re-
framing from any attempt to secure pri-
vacy, to avoi1 exciting curiosity, and
this apparently succeeded. N. Viguier
and the pahceman only went as far as
the first stop, Vertoux. whence they re-
turned to Nantes to catch an express for
Paris. leaving the brothers to continue
their journey alone. 1t is believed the
Dreyfuses alighted at an intermediate
station to take fresh start in au un-
known direction.
