the property could sell for when the times are flush. In the place of equalizing as they might have done they raised almost the whole list as it stood before, with some exceptions of course. While the valuation given for most property was no doubt at a figure lower than it's actual value, and while it is hard matter for a body to get together and suit everyone, yet when some pro- perty seems to be assessed for more than it's actual value, figur- ing at the very highest figures possible and others lowered when they already stood at a figure far below their actual worth, it does seem strange to a man up tree. While we have as yet not received a list of the raising" we can not speak of it as we might if we were in full possession of the facts. There fore we will refrain from saying what we would like to say. While we believe in equitable taxation, we don't believe in one or two men running the county, if such be the case.

Senator Jas. Jones told Ex- Governor Clarke a few things in his speech in Searcy last Monday. Augusta Vidette.
 This is news to most everyone. The Vidette no doubt got a scoop on it's information. We wonder if the Vidette heard of what Clarke said of Jones. It doesn' t have anything to say of Jones explanation of his connection with the American Cotton Co.,, or of the source of his influence with the republican administra- tion. What in the world did the senator say anyway that may call for such a statement as ap- peared in the Vidette.

Mr. Eyerhart informed us that
the wholesale merchants aud bank
ers had banded themselves together,
so to speak, and have determined
to reach out for some of the In
dian Territory trade, and the Cot
ton Belt will be extended from
Sherman to Fort Sill, crossing the
Rock Island at Duncan.
viii they come by Ardmore,
Mr. Everhart'" asked the reporter.
"Oh, no; by no means. That
is just what they want to avoid.
Il is the wholesale men there that
want to sell to these Indian Ter
ritory people, and were they to
come by Ardmore, Ardmore mer
chants would take it away from
them"
What is their proposed line
through the Territory"
Mr.. Everhart scratched his head
and said; They leave Sherman
in a northwesterly direction and
cross Red river at the old Bowling
crossing, and swinging along the
river valley for some distance,
they cross the Santa Fe at Ma
rietta, and keeping the course will
miss Ardmore about twelve miles
taking IN Hewitt, Loco aud other
small towns until it gets to Dun
can, where it will cross the Rock
Island. The road will go from
there on to Fort Sill, where they
will make a terminus for a while
The distance from Sherman to
Duncan is about l3O miles, and
thirty miles more will throw them
into Fort Sill.
