Last Thursday, game Of base
ball was played in New Hope, between
the Fnt and Lean men. IT Was an
amusing and interesting game, con
sidering that there was more willing
| ness than skill in the makeup Of the
| two mines. The result was victory
Of the Lean men by score # 20 to H.
One Of the aaddest deaths whicl
| has taken place in Ncwtown for
long time was that of Mrs. Eliza Boyd,
ut her home on Washington Avenue,
| on Saturday afternoon. At about
three o'clock neighbors heard II spl asl
| in the we'll at the rear of the house
and, hurrying to the scene, found
Mrs. Boyd ut the bottom of the well.
| A searching party was organized Ia
rescue the unfortunate woman and
after dilgenl work, in which one OF
| the workers was almost suliocated
from the gases i'll the well, the body
of the woman was brought to the sur
face, nearly three hours after her fall
The body was partially disrobed.
1t is not known whether Mrs Boye
committed suicide or whether she nc
cidently fell to her death. She had
been suffering with nervous trouble
for some months, and this may have
led to her mind becoming unbalanced
and thus caused her to take her life
Another theory is that she may have
intended to place something in thu
well to keep cool, and, losing he
balance, fell in herself
Mrs Boyd was probably forty years
of age, and was the widow of the late
Major Robert n. Boyd, IA yetern o
the Civil War. The family formerly
resided in Solebnry township, TIM
county. Three daughters survive

cratic papers of the State, IN an ar.
ticle justly condemning some of our
representatives and one of our Sen.
ators, who s'have been of great
benefit to the Republican party"
closes a strong article by saying:
"The fact of the matter is that in.
stead of being represented, the Dem
ocratic people of Louisiana are woe
fully misrepresented by some of
those sent to Washington. Federal
patronage is now dispened by a Re-
publican administration to certain
persons POSING as Democrats and
the practice has become so distaste-
full that the Democratic caucus has
taken cogplzapce of and pronounced
against it and the Times Democrat
has opened up an agitation against
Federal patronage Democrats in an
editorial which has attracted wide
spread attention. five are Dem.
ocrats let us be such in w ashington
as well as in Louisiana. If Repub.
lican measures are what Louisiana
needs most let us be Republicans;
let us go over bag and baggage and
not appear to the Democratic party
of the United States as "wolves in
sleeps clothing" Let us be one
thing or the other and stop CARRYING
water on both shoulders. We re-
joice to find the Times Democrat
has opened war upon such meth
ods."

A TIMELY WARNING.

The following letter to Hon. E. j.
Hamley from DR. S. A. Scott, of Car
mel, Ark, contains an object lesson to
the people of East Carroll. ;. Mr. Gould
is asking no bonus from anyone, but
merely asks for rights of way and good
will from the people. 1t is not def.
nitely settled which route will be taken
vet. as it depends entirely on the re-
ception accorded by our citizens We
should consider carefully before at
tempting to throw any obstacles in the
way of the front route, as such at
tempts, even if unsuccessful, will be
unpopular in the extreme. In the
northern part of the parish the two
routes which have been surveyed are
only two miles apart and it will be ex-
tremely easy for Mr.. Gould to take the
back route. if he finds the people along
the front are showing disposition to
delay making grants of rights of way
or to. otherwise oppose the movement.
Therefore ything depends upon the
action of our citizens:
CARMEL. ARK, December Q, 1901.
Mr.. Il. j. Hdmley. Lake Providence. La.
Dear Sir:-Your favor of the 9th inst.
received. The new II. X. had little
delay in securing right of way at Lake
Village; but the engineer got orders to
move the road 4 miles west. and the
citizens got together and secured the
necessary rights of way. So the mat
ter was adjusted. Down here with us
we gave all they asked for,
There are 100 teams at work from
HALEY to Lake Village. The right of
way camp is now ON the Macon above
here. at the bridge They are coming
right along Glad TO serve you when l
can. Truly yours.

In order To amicable settle the con-
troversy recently carried on in the
town papers by Mr.. E. W. Browne of
the Sentry! and Mr.. Jas. N Turner of
the Banner Democrat. the undersigned
were appointed committee of arbitra-
ton. The principals having agreed
to abide by the decision of said com.
mittee, we find as follows:
Mr.. E.1W. Browne denies having
made the statement charged against
him by Mr.. Turner and Mr.. Turner
accepts said denial
In regard to ..resolutions of respect,
it is customary and legitimate for all
papers to charge for resolutions of
lodges and other societies. and we find
that Mr.. Turner is clearly entitled to
same. This Mr.. Browne accepts as COR
rect.
Thus we hope the controversy is set
tied honorably to both parties, and the
public assured of peace reignlng SUI

news was received with more salts
faction than when the dispatches
from Washington announced that
our citizen and Congressman had
received the appointment on the
committee on rivers and harbors.

The DAILY States says that "the
estimates for the navy for the next
fiscal year are about 500, 900, 600,
for the army sl6l, 900, 900, and for
pensions about $3.50, 600, 600. There
is no prospects for return to the
economical administrations of 9th.
er times. We have become a.world
power, and one of the penalties to
maintain our dignity is a great out
lay of the peoples money, collected
by taxation, as that is the only way
penny can reach the national
treasury. We may call it tariff or
internal revenue, bat it all means
taxation" The City Item also has
Its say about it: "The United
States are spending money at fear
full rate. Next year, or the year
after, the cost of the Federal Gov
eminent will be at the rate of $40
for every man, woman and child in
this country. That means $50 for
every family. II means twenty mil
lions for the State OF Louisiana.
We do not feel it, because we pay

to pay 1t in the end, and it comes
out of our labor. During the ten
years prior to June 50, 1925, the

The scheme to reduce the South
ern representation in Congress is
being worked up, and the reports
sent out from Washington say that
President Roosevelt favors the
plan. A late dispatch quotes Sec
rotary Cortelyou as saying that
"two-thirds of the Republicans in
the House favor action, and has as
surances that Republican Senators
will welcome it," The Democrats
say that such action would mean
the defeat of Roosevelt in 1904,
and believe that if the bill passes
the Republicans will lose their pres.
ent overwhelming power.
