AUTOMOBILE MAIL WAGONS.

The fact that Chicago is TO have au-
tomobile mail wagons is only a sign
of the times. To be sure, they are TO
be put on merely as n test of their
usefulness, but who can doubt the re-
suit?
At first the automobile was a pleas
ure vehicle and nothing else. \ rich
man might have one. just as he might
have n yacht, and 10 ride in one was
an celebrating novelty. Then same
the automobile cabs. quite common in
London and New York, but only r.
Gently introduced in Chicago, and after
that the automobile delivery wagons.
In every case they were tried as an ex-
pertinent and the experiment was so
successful that the automobile became
instantly popular for that particular
purpose. Undoubtedly that also will
be the result of the mail wagon test,
and after the Chicago demonstration
their introduction everywhere is bound
TO follow. It is step in the direction
of their universal adoption for ali bat
railway transportation purposes. The
heavier wagons and trucks will be next
on the hist to discard horses. and they
will not be far behind the larger mai!
wagons.
After that the reign of the horse will
be practically at an end for unitarian
purposes. The change will be gradual,
but It will be sure, and in the next de-
cade the saddle horse and the trotter
will be all that will be left in the
stables, while they will be only in the
stables OF the wealthy. They will be
the luxuries that automobiles were a
short time ago. and the automobiles

COTTON FACTORIES

From an editorial in the Gazette,
TO which our attention was called
we clip the following
Accepting Mr.. Hargroye's hg-
ures as being correct it requires no
expert in mathematics to calculate
the loss sustained by the people Of
Arkansas. This state raised last
year about / 900, 900 bales of cot
ton. 1t is estimated that the an
nual consumption of cotton goods
is 20 pounds per capita. Accord
ING to the census of 1890 the pop.
ulation of Arkansas is l,l2S, us,
aud if each person consumed 20
pounds Of cotton per year the total
amount of consumption would be
%, 593 $40 pounds, or 56, 4O8 bales,
weighing 400 pounds each. As this
cotton when shipped away TO be
manufactured and returned to Ar
kansas for use, costs exclusively of
manufacturing it, about $40 per
bale, it is very plain that we are
paying annually not only a vast
sum that enters into the costs of
manufacture, but $564 $50, which
goes into the pockets of the eastern
manufactures.
All this money should be kept
at home and a great deal more of
which the state is drained for the
purchace of goods and other com
modities manufactured from raw
material produced in Arkansas.
This drainage Of the states wealth
will continue unless some policy is
adopted to retain it in Arkansas
and permit of its distribution
among the people. -

We were shown a letter from a
soldier friend, a young man who
enlisted from this place a couple
of years ago in the regular army
and who is now in Cuba. He said:
II am now on guard duty at a
coffee plantation near Havana and
am faring sumptuously-all that
can eat, and wine that | can drink.
I eat at the rich planters table and
sleep in one of his beds. Here the
letter says that our blue coats are
scattered over the island at different
farms to prevent stealing anc
watch the movements of the IDLE
inhabitants that war has caused tC
walk over the country. We think
the idea good one to have small
squads at these plantations with
en-commisioned officer ia charge
who has the element of soldier
for this will give the country d
restfuI feeling quicker than any
thing else. Rather expensive. how

Some few argue against grading
down our streets. All who have
any knowledge of the custem and
practice of other cities of any
pretentions whatever, know that
such is absolutely necessary, In
many cities private citizens often
90 to very heavy expense in the
way of grading up their lots, so as
to have a pretty terrace Here
many can have them without going
to much expense, When we get
our streets graded, our natural
cement paving on them, and good
sidewalks everywhere, TeXarkana
will be the queen among cities of
her size. Then we may look for
capital to flow in, and factories to
start up,

John C. Sheehan, of New York
city, Tammanys new CHIEF, is can,
did and truthful. At St. Louis on
the 29th Of March, while enroute
home from Hot Springs, he said;
In my opinion Organism is strong
er than ever in the west and south
and these portions of the country
practically dominate the democratic
party. Indications point to a DEM
ocratic victory for 1900, despite the
successful conduct of the war by the
present administration, the present

Future of the Bicycle

1t is agreed by all bicycle manu-
facturers that the 1899 models rep
resent the perfect wheel, Improve
ments seems to be impossible, Pre-
cisely the same thing is true of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. 1t rep
reseuts the limits of science in over
coming disease, and it is impossible
to make a better medicine for the
stomach, liver, kidneys and blood
A few doses of the Bitters will start
weak, nervous and bloodless people
on the road to strength, A regu-
lar course of treatment will bring
back the pink to the cheeks and
sparkle to the eye. Sleep will come
naturally, and it will be refreshing
and healthful. Dyspepsia, .indiges
tion and constipation will be per-
fecty banished, aud the blessings
of true health bestowed, Never
take substitute for this perfect
remedy.

This a progressive age? We should
say so. 1t has even progressed so
much that in high life one minister
can no longer perform marriage
ceremony. The services of two
reverend gentlemen are now re-
quired, one to grasp the situation
and hold on to it, while the other
draws the threads and ties the knot.
However, we wonder if these fan
tastically drawn bonds of union are
productive of more real conjugal
happiness than when the act was
performed by our fore-parents, by
simply jumping over a broom. If

Ia yesterdays Courier appeared
strangely unchristian article pur-
porting to come from a preacher,
endorsing an utterance of that pa
per against killings IN this city, and
alleging that it was the only paper
in the city that had ever spoken
out against such things. Now, we
do not care to get into a controv-
ersy with nameless preacher,
but will say that he is very
badly mistaken in several of
his utterances. But, the only
thing we desire to refute is the
claim that no,other paper had spok-
en- out against killings here. The
TExARKANIAK has hundreds of
times condemned it in unmeasured
terms-has ever advocated law and
