CONGRESSMAN J. s. LITTLE WRITES TO THE GRAPH-
 lc's CITY EDITOR.
HE AWAITS THE PROTEST.
Makes a Most Satisfactory Ex- planation and Offers As
 sistance.


 Congressman John s. Little from this district is ever ready, as he has many times proven, to assist his constituents in their Just demands. He is a praise worthy official and as congressman he has accom- plished much good for Arkansas. When it was announced exclusive ly in the Graphic a few weeks ago that our ineonvenieotly located postofice would do business at the same old stand for five years longer, our citizens were very indignant and lworked-up over the matter. They had previously sent a protest bearing 63 Pine Bluff business firms signatures to Postoffice In spector Hall, of Little Rock, but, as Il later developed, he ignored them entirely. Our citizens then tele- graphed thelr "tale of woe" to Con- gressman John s. Little, at Wash ington, D. C., but it was too late. They should have looked to him at first to accomplish the removal Of the postoffice. After Mir Little notified them tLat the lease had been approved they blamed him greatly, and we must say unlustly. He is willing and ready to assist our people, which is shoWas by the following letter, which was received here today:
 WARRINGTON, D. O., Feb. 10, 1900 Mr. Meyer Solmson.

Early next morning I visited the deparment in person, and found the contract had been approved January %. l then ur1ed the re. opening of the matter, ana was informed that the contract had been approved upon the recon mendation of the inspector. have done nothing further and have been daily awaiting the arrival of such protests as the people of your city desired to make. And 1 assure you that when received l will preser them, and use every effort that l can to secure favorable action. 1 do not believe that any of your peo pie desire to do ne an injustice, for it has at all times been my con. stant effort to assist my constitu- ents in their just demands. Our friends, however, must not forget that the entire control Of these mat ters are in the hands of persons not of my political faith, and that all 1 can do is to present the demands of our people, ana trusti in their sense of fairness to do right. l shall take the matter up just as soon as the petition and protests are re ceived. Thanking you for your kindness, am,
 Yours truly,

They don't wait for nightfall like their

No Chnnrc For Him.

Three negro lads met on q street cor
nor one afternoon, and by some queer
freak of Providence each had just Ii
cents. This was considerable for them,
and, being so unfortunate as to have
no "craps," it required much serious
elaboration to arrive at just the best
plan for spending it.
Finally one suggested that they
place their little capital In a pool and
then, each in turn, guess what was
good to eat, the best guesser to take
all of the money.
This plan met with hearty approval
as each one had ideas on that subject
and the 45 cents was soon in pile,
Then the first one guessed.
"Possum, sweet taters an water.
melon" he said.
At this the second one reached down
and began picking up his nickels, but
the third stopped him with: ''HoP on
dare! Let dat money lone" To which
the second replied:
You think Ize goin to guess agains'
that fool niger when he's done said
oil der is good ter eat?"-Types.

A movment is on foot to build n
beautiful boulevard between Akron
and Barberton. 1t is proposed to have
the boulevard begin near Summit lake
and run south west to New Portage
over Private property. 1t is figured to
have 1t 100 feet in width and have n
80 foot strip in the center for flowers
and schrubbery and have large shade
trees on either side. A state law was
recently passed to the effect that the
state would pay two-thirds for the con-
struction of such pou:evard. The
county would have to stand the other
third. In other cities where boule-
wards of this kind have been con-
structed, it has increased the value of
adjoining property 500 per cent. Should
this be built it will make the best res
idence location in Summit county, be-
cause 1t is just between Barberton
and Akron and access to either place
could be had very easily. More def
mite plans will be made in a short
time.
