Hon. G.. B. Ferguson is an
nounced in this issue as can
didate for representative, subject
to the will of the democratic ma
jority. Mr.. Ferguson is a resi-
dent of Richwoods township
where he is engaged in farming.
He is not stranger to the people
of Sharp county, having been
elected in 1892 to represent the
county in the lower house of the
legislature at the session of 1898.
His record at this session is open
to all and Mr.. Ferguson invites
inspection. He is responsible for
the county being divided into two
districts and a court being es-
tablished at Hardy, which we
believe has proven satisfactory
to a majority of the citizens of the
county. In fact two courts are
nearly necessity for the county
and it suffers no financial injury
therefrom. Mr. Ferguson has
proven himself fitted to represent
the county in the Legislature and
should he be honored with the
position again the peoples inter-
ests will be in safe hands.

CANDIDATES.

Hon. David L. King Of Hardy
announces his candidacy for SEN
ator from the second district of
Arkansas in this issue, subject
to the action of the democratic
primaries or convention. Mr..
King is we'll known to a great
majority of our readers. In 1890
he was elected clerk of Sharp
county, which position he filled
for four years with credit to him
self and to his people. He was
admitted to the bar not many
years ago and is now a successful
lawyer and has an extensive
practice in the courts of this Cir
cult and elsewhere. Mr.. King is
a man of much natural ability.
His convictions are true and his
principle sound. AS citizen he
stands high in the estimation of
the people, as a lawyer he is
among the foremost and as a
democrat his principles ring true,
Mr.. King will run a good race
and if elected will represent the
district creditably.

Ben N. Yates of Williford this
week announces his candidacy
for sheriff of Sharp county, sub

was reared in this county and at
present is a prominent business
man of Williford. He served as
deputy sheriff Of the county for
two years and as deputy United
States marshall for three years,
filling both positions admirably.
AS to qualifications Mr.. Yates
possesses those which are nee
essary in order to make a sheriff.
He has been a lifelong democrat
and it the party gives him the
Office he seeks there will be no
occasion to regret the choice,

Horace B. Hills announce
ment for re- detection to the office
OF circuit clerk appears in the

Probably no man who has held
this Office for many years past
has made a better record than
has Mr.. Hill. During, his first
year in office he turned into the
county as excess of salary the
sum of Sl0l9,00, and, taking into
consideration the fact that the
business of the courts has great
~ diminished, makes his a rec
ORD to BIO proud Of. The COM

In our announcement column
will be found the name of S. l..
Shaver of Scott township who
asks the democrats for a seat in
the lower house Of the next gen.
eral assembly. This gentleman
made the race for this position
two years ago, and while not
elected, he made quite a credit
able showing, being a close Sec
ond to the nominee. Mr., Shaver
is comparatively a young man,
and is a man Of sound judgment,
much ability aud thoroughly
Joffersonian democratic ideas
and principles. In the legis,a-
tive hall he would, no doubt,
make a record which the people
would endorse. If elected he
promises to advocate such meas
ures as are directly beneficial to
his own people and fearlessly op-
pose those which tend to retard
the progress of the common
wealth as a state and people. Mr.,
Shaver has many warm friends
and will certainly receive a
strong vote.

George w. Mullen is announ-
ced in this issue as a candidate
for assessor. We suppose every
citizen Of Sharp county is &C.
quainted with George Mullen and
knows he is one Of the most gen.
ial spirits alive. He served the
people as sheriff and collector
for two years and made an ex-
cellent officer, AT the expiration
OF his first term he did not ask
for reelection. Mr.. Mullen is
amply qualified to fill the office
OF assessor and the people Of the
county would have no cause for
regret should they give him the
office to which he aspires. Con-
slider his candidacy.

mere local conditions, tho most cx-
pcrcnced traders were at loss to de-
eide. Both influences were actively
working in making the opening of the
market excited at an advance of 1lMlS
points. This improvement WAS follow
ed by a further rise OF one to two
points. y great business was trans
acted especially during the early hours
of the session. The pendulations in
prices were frequent and violent. With

opening gong the market had advanced
o5MS0 points on the more active post
lions, reacted l5G1S points and recov-
cred 5MS points. after which il was
anyhody's market. with views mixed
