Immense wealth was accumulated In q

AS expected, the legislature has prao-
fjcslly determined that the coming

posed OF many, and not OF few mem

 MRS. JAMES LYNCH, nee Sarah Dunlap, died at her home at Woodbury, Ark, On Nov. 15. Mrs. Lynch was one of the sur vivors of the famous Mountain Meadows massacre. Her hus- band, Capt. James Lynch, will be remembered by many people about Green Forest as having visited for sometime at this place seven or eight years ago. Capt. Lynch was then engaged in an effort to interest congress in the allowance of a claim against the government to reimburse the sur vivors for loss of property sus- tained in the massacre. Capt. Lynch was one of the men who rescued the children who were sent back from the scene of the massacre to Arkansas. He was then a grown man. Almost a half century after the occurrence MT. Lynch was married to Miss Dunlap.

THE president has removed Gov. Jenkins of Oklahoma and appointed T. B. Furgason in his stead. The president found that Jenkins had become financially interested in some affairs over which he held executive control. Mr. Roosevelt is to be commended upon the frank statement he is- sued in removing MT. Jenkins s from office. If the president keeps up the close scrutiny of affairs that he has begun, it wouldn't be surprising if another sensation is created about the U. S. marshal's office at Fort Smith before long.

 cause it shows that some people never learn that jumping on and
 off moving trains is an exceed- ingly dangerous habit: Bob

 ing from q moving train. He was at the depot when the afternoon train pulled out for Rogers and like several others he boarded it to ride down to the new cold storage. When he attempted to get off, his feet slipped and he held on with his hands for a short ways when he was thrown vio- lenuy to the ground, the fall breaking his neck and otherwise injuring him. He was given a nice burial, a fine cAsl1et being purchased by the citizens of Ben- tonvilie and nice burial clothes. Funeral notices were printed and sent out and q great many white people attended.
