The Green Forest tribune., 1899-06-22


 road man, was here couple of months ago, along with Gen. Clay ton and party, he told us that Green Forest and Harrison hotels were not ample to accommodate the travel to the mineral country during the coming 50 days, and the old gentleman's prophecy has just about been verified in this, sure.

While this statement cannot yet be verified, it looks suspicious enough to be encouraging.
 Jake Longdon was in town Saturday, smiling a broad "amole" of happiness over having beat his whisky case in the U s. court at Fort Smith, from which place he was then returning.

Jake is now a prominent and prosperous citizen of Melville and is engaged in the practice ot law.

He is of the opinion that it will take that long to get everything ready to begin moving dirt. He says there is no doubt about the intention tt the men be hind the scheme to put 1t through.
