CHARGED With Murder.

This morning Deputy u. Brock
brought in George Tucker, Dowdy
Tucker and Bert Tucker, charged
with murder. which was committed
in August. At the time of the
murder other parties were arrested
for the offense, and bound over by
Commissioner Outlet. The grand
jury failed to indict those accused
of the murder and turned them
loose, but from the evidence ad'
duced they indicted the three
fuckers named above, and the
warrants have now been served
upon them.

The Erhart Entertainment.

The Erhart entertainment given
last night at the opera house under
the auspices of the Ladies Aid
society of the Cumberland Presby-
terian church was well attended.
The elite and music loving people
of the town being prominent in
the audience. Mr.. Erhart's work
on the violin was superb and each
number brought forth hearty ap-
plause. He is master with the
violin.
Perhaps he was best in Toward s
Souvenir de Hayden" in which
bis work was clearly that of an
artist.
Mrs. Erhart in the Kissing
Cup" race was strong. Her reci-
tatious were exceedingly good and
appreciated by all.
Rev. C. M. Collins song,
Loves Old Sweet Song" was
well rendered and much appre-
ciated.
These entertainers are to be con-
graduated upon giving us a good
entertainment, and we hope they
will not make this their last visit

f1ONEY PRACTICALLY RAISED.
II Now Depends Upon People on the
Right Way.

Right. Way.
After the close of the mass
meeting last night, Ardmore lack.
ed about $500 of raising the
money necessary to get the A. q
G. railroad. The committee ap.
pointed to raise the balance have
been at work today and have
practically accomplished their
purpose.
But there is another matter that
stares the railroad people in the
face, more than the money we
give them, aud that is the high
valuation some of the property
owners along the right-of-way are
putting on their property. Ad
hitting that we get the $l5, 900,
the railroad still don't have to
come, and may miss us yet, unless
they can settle with the right Of
way people at reasonable fgures.
They are willing to pay what
the property is worth, and it is TO
be hoped that few people on the
right of way will not attempt to
hold up the railroad, and thus
cause them to change their minds
and leave Aidmore.
Ardmore can't do without the A.
& G. road. It will be worth more
to us than you have any idea o. |
means to Ardmore the steppinl
stone to prosperity-to futur'
greatness. Without it we ar
doomed; we are gone and a
one gentleman said last night a
the mass meeting we would neve
get over so long as we lived; tha
our children might.
Be conservative, gentlemen; pa
a reasonah hle price upon your prop
erty, ana deal with the a. & {

neighbor.
Let us have the Arkansas an
Choctaw road.

1t will be we'll to remember that it
has taken our race many centuries to
get rid of the plan of having every
man law unto himself. Already this
Kansas crusade has extended from sa-
looms to drugstOres suspected of sell
ling liquor than medicinal purposes.
missing that we shall not be in the
least surprised to hear of the smashing
of private houses whose owners are
suspected of having dispensed alcho-
holic beverages in the entertainment
of friends. This is by no means fan
ciful suggestion.
Mrs. Nation aud her friends, say
that they intend to carry the saloon
smashing crusade, not only through
out the length and bredth of Kansas,
but into all parts of the country and
especially into the city of New York,
where, of course, as Mrs. Nation must
know, the sale of liquors by persons
duly licensed is as lawful as the sale
of Bibles, although most New York
saloon men violate the law in points of
detail Again, it is to be remarked
that it would be useless to criticise
these women who are acting along
what they believe to be a line of duty
under a higher law even than that
which exists in Kansas. But the
members of the State legislature at
Topeka are not moved by these higher
considerations. They are not of the
stuff of which saints and martyrs are
made; they are just ordinary, every
day politicians, and as such the coun-
try will Judge them. If in passing
resolutions or enacting statutes they
encourage private individuals to smash
without usual process of law-prop-
erty supposed to be occupied by men
engaged in unlawful pursuits, they will
be Justly held responsible for the car
nival of arson and murder that will in
the end result from their sheer coward
ice. The men of Kansas should either
make the law fit the facts or make the
facts fit the law. From "The Progress

In recent issue of the Arkansas Baptist was a letter from Col. John c. B. Simms. of Little Rock, in which he mentions a colored church in this city as follows:
 "The work of Bro. J. c. Battle, of that place, is quite unique. He has a church of some 150 mebers (colored j, all of whom own or are paying for their homes. No tramp can stay in his fold Contributions are regular and liberal. The church sustains a hos pital for it's own sick elects it's own doctor and druggist, and everything moves along like clock-work. No man who will not pay his debts can retain membership. If one gets into trouble he appeals to his pastor for help, and gets it, for, be it known, the check of this same man is good at any bank in Pine Bluff, and without endorsement he can get what mon Y he calls for What an example to many white preachers. Others there are who are doing fine Nose ley, Rogers and Bourland among them.

THE SPEAKER ERSHIP.

The contest for the speakership of the neyt House is the leading event HOW in political circles. While there are large number of candidates in the field. the contest seems to be mar fowed down between lion. H. K FoneF. Of this county, and Hon. T. H. Halaahreys, of Washington County. Ti4g oHghout tho entire contest MT. Humphreys, recognizing the strength ef his leading opponent, has directed hi s campaign chiefly against the young member from Jefferson. From aI we can hear and learn, MT. Hum phrevs' campaign has hot been one of dignity but of the compromising, groyeling sort, add such as not to in spire respect for the position. How eyer that may be. the fact should be borne in mind that Washington coun- Zfv also has candidate for President of the Senate. i'll the person of MT. R. N Wilson, a man of eminent legal and parliamentary abilities, with fair chance of election. That Washing ron county should have both the Speakership and Presidency of the Senate would be dignity and impor- tance beyond it's deserts, and would be all unprecedented predominance in State affairs and unjust to other counties in the State, equally as i'm portant It should also be remember ed that in MT Frank Hill, Washing ton county also has a member of the State government.
 Jefferson county has no member of the State government, no candidate for the Presidency of the Senate, and is modest in her aspirations and claims for her sons.. In MT. Hardin K. Toncy, however, whom the people of this county present for the Speak ership of the House, Jefferson County offers 9 young man of worthy habits, honesty and integrity of heart and purpose and a young man possessed of the parliamentary abilities neces- sary- -for ! presiding officer. In pre- 5enting him, especially under the cir eHmstances. the Democracy of this county feels that he should be hon. pred for the position to which he spires. Other counties and sections have ample and sufficient representa- tion in the various departments of the State government already, and it is high time the gnterrified Democracy of old Jefferson should be recognized Mir. Toney, though a young man is the peer in abiIiies of any of his op- ponents and both he and his section are worthy of recognition and reward If the spirit for fair division of the aonGrs of office obtains among the members of the House. Mir Toney will be elected to the Speakership, as he deserves to he.
