The New York stock market continued
heavy and irregular, closing at a sharp
decline in many of the most reliable divi-
dend payers. The industrials were also
under pressure, and the closing showed
that the bears had succeeded in making
an effective drive at them. During the
great bull movement of over three months
duration an enormous line of stocks were
bought, and to market them will not be
a matter of a day or a month. 1t is cur

COTTON

Under the unfavorable influence of a
decline in cotton futures, the spot mar
ket went off 1-16c to-day, with the clos
ing quiet, and sales of 1911 bales. The snap
was apparently taken from the demand,
and a decrease in the trading, as conf
pared with the last two or three days,
was noticeable. The receipts were 4,5S2
bales Offerings from the interior were
in fair volume. The futures market closed
steady, with prices off 5q10 points.

tations at the close of the market at the

THE newspaper enemies ot Senator Jones are asking: what great things has he accomplish ed since he has been United States Senator" He has ac- complished all that any Senator of the minority party in the Sen ate could have accomplished. Being conservative he has been able to do some good for his country, while a fre-eater would likeiv have done harm. Senator Jones has not been able to do near as much as he would have liked to do for his people; but at the same time he has been large lv instrumental in keeping the other party from doing a great many things that ought not to have been done. Senator Jones has not only been a leading spirit in the Democratic party in the United States Senate but he has been a leader i'll the nation, and the attempt to belittle his efforts, by small fry, is puerile in the extreme.
The Monticellonian., 1901-10-11

The daily papers of Little Rock show wonderful lack of enterprise by not securing a good correspondent, one who will take an interest in the mat ter, to write from here. If we are correctly informed both the Democrat and Gazette have number of subscribers here and as a rule they expect to see Pres cottnews in these papers.-Pres- colt Picayune.
 To be sure they do, and as a rule the Arkansas Democrat has maintained a good correspond ent at Prescott during the past ten years. By the way, the Mon ticellonian made the same com plaint in it's last issue. The Democrat will give the matter prompt attention in both cases. -Arkansas Democrat.

 The 4th Quarterly Conference for the Mt. Pleasant Circuit was held last Saturday at Rock Springs. It was well attended, as usual, by the best official board we have ever known anything about. The members of this board are faithful in all things, and when they get together 'tis regular love e-feast.

 Cotton has opened rapidly and picking is in full blast, and will soon all be out and much of it sold.
 For the past two weeks the at mosphere of the community sur sounding Wilmar and Allis has been permeated by the sweet odor of hot molasses. Several of our good farmers have been converting the juice of the sorghum cane into more useful substance, and now sorghum molasses Is one of the del icacies on many of our tables. Mir Crawford Myhand. of Monticello, made up several crops around us, last week, aggregating to nearly 100 gallons.
