THERE is food for thought in the following from the Johnson County Herald, democratic:
 "With Jeff Davis as governor of Arkansas, the state would be a dead letter for at least two years. He is known abroad as he is at home, and not dollar for foreign capital would be invested in the state as long as he was it's chief eXecutiye,'

To Furnish Ties.

c. M. Cartmel of Porto, I. T., arrived in Green Forest Friday and is looking over the country with view to bidding on a con- tract for furnishing ties for ten miles of the railroad in this sec- tion.
 McCloud, who has the contract for furnishing the ties for the first fifty miles of the road, will be here this week, and Mr. Cartmel will put in his bid upon his arrival. MT. Cartmel is a professional tie contractor, and it is quite pro- bable that he will be given the work here. He has followed the business for many years. He fur nished part of the ties that were used in building the Eureka Springs road.
 MT. Cartmel informs us that, if given this contract, he will put on a force of about hundred men at once. He will also buy ties at current prices.
 It will take 3O,0O0 ties for ten miles, or 15O,000 for the 50 miles, which is quite an item in itself. Money paid for ties is all profit to the country.
 Ties must all be cut from either postoak, whiteos.k or bu2roak timber. The regulation size of a tie is Gx8 inches, 8 feet long, of sound timber, and any variation from this dimension make them subject to be culled out, which means that they must go at half the current price. The present price of ties to be furnished on this line is "A cents.

Especial Chicago Letter.1

OWHERE can Surer evidence be N found of the bstterment of the
 condition of the peoples of the earth than here in Chicago, where so many representatives of all na- tions are congregated. The message delivered 1900 years ago is ultimat- ing itself in good works. and good will to man" is the working plan of the various city charities. The in
 telli2ent relief from want. and it's accompanying suffering, removes the greatest incentive to crime. It seems almost trite to state that the sight of the cold and hunger of a mana family frequently crazes his brain, weakened by fasting. and he goes out filled With bitterness toward all and ready at any risk ts seize the where withal to procure the means of sub siStence which he feels assured the world 'owes" to those he loves.
 The saying that when hunger en- ters the door love flies out of the win dow has no foundation in fact. The proportion of love to be found amen. the families of the very poor is no less large than in these of their more prosperous neighborS. And if poor family be comfortably warmed and fed, especially by the honest efforts of it's own members, the probabili- ties of it's producing a criminal are greatly diminished. The Bureau of Associated Charities has come into ex- istence for the purpose of organizing s the various city charities for mutual and reciprocal work. While much scod has been accomplished in the past, there has been great need of cooperation. By means of tho hu- reau each organization knows what the other. are doing. and nc single family may receive aid from severa! charities without the knowledge of
