The Reason Why.

There is considerable needless talk
INDUCED In because there are points
in Crawford county where slightly
higher price is being paid for cotton
than in Van Buren,. By sitting the
matter to the bottom the reason for this
Is easily understood. Those points
Mulberry and Alma-have some large
credit merchants, who own mortgages
on large part Of the cotton crops trib.
utary to those towns. To secure that
cotton and also sell the growers goods
they offer higher price than the mar.
ket quotations justify, hoping to recour
themselves through profit on goods.
There all the larger merchants buy
cotton. Here we have no strictly credit
house and only two buyers, who pur.
chase for company and are given In,
structions each day as to the price they
are to pay. They pay cash for all cotton
bought and IL looks unreasonable tC
think that they should go down into
their own pockets to pay more thar
their instructions specify.
We hear It said, IVAN Buren, was &

To Stamp Out Anarchy.

In his sermon Sunday the great
Southern Presbyterian divine Rev. B.
M. Palmer of New Orleans thus treated
the question Of anarchy;
1T Is not my habit to speak from the
pulpit Of passing events, and have u
special adherence for seeking effect by
joining illusions to current happenings
with the serious business OF the Lord i,
but I would feel that my duty had not
been done II on this Sabbath morning /
should fail to appropriate the hour,
usually devoted to the sermon, to speak
ing Of the crime at which the nation
stands aghast, and considering how best
to stamp out that monster menace To
civilization, anarchy.
1.-THE assassination Of President Nc.
Kinley was not n simple murder, nor
the killing Of an individual, but a blow
at the whole nation, The blow was one
meant to snnihilate the nation, a. 1t was
struck at the government itself, and was
a declaration from the hand Of the as.
sassin that there must be no govern.
ment Of any kind, II was not aimed
alone at this government, but at all
governments and at all law.
What are we to do with the Grim.
inal' Certainly nothing In the way oil
personal resentment, for the infamous
individual WAS but executing the tenets
Of the order to which he belongs. His
was crime OF the deepest malignity
but 1t was at the same time a crime that
calls for the exercise Of the most pro.
found thought. II furnishes the most
solemn of problems for the nation &c
solve. 1t calls for the largest intellects
and the most potent moral forces OF our
people. What Is to be done with an,
archyl How Ia II TO be routed out. |,
affects not one but all nations. The
crime Of Czolgosz has seen its parallel IN
other lands, and I declare to you that
all civilized nations owe 1t to themselve,
to arrange for congress for the discus,
sion Of ways aud means 10 deal with
anarchists and anarchy and TO stamp
them out once and for all, - g

WAS that Clarke, as ex-governor, ought
not to have appeared afterwards az at
t0rney In such a case, asking and OBJ.

From the Jonesboro Times
The friends Of ex.Gov. Clarke are re.

to defeat Senator Jones. They continue
to try to make the people believe that

better. II that company controlled all

themselves to make such a claim, They
