M In this issue will be found the an.
9nouncement for county clerk OF c. B.
Robinson, more familiarly known as
"Brack," who, while this is his hrst
invasion of politics for himself, has
always taken an active and effective
part in the interest of his friends.
He is not only distinguished for his
moral courage in standing by his
friends, but his answering devotion
to democracy at all times has been
as marked as it was creditable. Mr..
Robinson is 80 years of age, the
Youngest son OF he late DR.. Jas. M
Robinson, who in his time was one
of the best democrats and grandest
old men of our section; he died in the
harness of his profession after more
than hfty years of hard practice,
having the reputation of never refus-
ing the call of the sick or suffering,
their poverty making no difference
whatever when his skill was asked.
In his day he did more for charity
than any man in North Arkansas
and never asked the public tor any
thing. Now his boy, who is well
qualified, and Inherits many Of the
qualities OF his father, is the first one
of the kith or kin to ask favor of
our people Mr. Robinson's atten-
ton during his whole life, which has
been spent in Boone county, has been
given entirely to farming; his success
will be the success OF a farmer exclu-
siyely. There are those who would
say that clerk should be selected
from the ranks Of some profession
or business, but Mr.. X. says he
wants the position, among other
reasons, to show to the public that
the farmer can make a good clerk
and that his success will be tri-
umph for the farmer. In a general
way, Brack is an honorable, capa-
BILE young man, and his claims
should receive the careful considera.
ton Of bis fellow democrats of Boone |
county. J

The TINES takes pleasure in an
nouncing Lafayette Eoff as a can
didate for the office of Representa-
tive, subject of course 70 the action
OF his party. This being the county
of his birth Mr.. Eoff is Familiarity
known by all of our people, who not
only esteem him highly as a young
man OF superior morals and talents,
but are proud of the excellent record
he has made in the past in the dis
charge of varied public trusts.
Raised upon a farm, and his early
manhood trained by the duties of
teacher in our public schools, in all
of the public positions which he has
since occupied he has demonstrated
his faithfulness as well as capacity,
and his host OF friends have come to
enter into his ambitions as enthusi-
astically as he does himself. 1t is
generally conceded that his nomina-
ton will be accorded without oppo-
sition, which, in consideration of the
Importance of the coming legislative
session, is OF itself a high compl-
ment. As Simon pure democrat,
and a citizen who knows and feels
fully the best interests of the county,
Mr.. Eoff will represent us in a man
ner to reflect credit upon our county
and add to the reputation he has al
ready built tor himself

Washington Letter
,From oai Regular Correspondent.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 90. t94l.
Mr. Roosevelt has not remlined
content with merely bling
reciprocity with Cuba in his message
but has taken steps TO ascertain the
facts in relation 10 the objections of
the Beet Sugar men who called on
him and presented their views some
time ago. He gave them no entour-
agement aud met their objections
with some very pointed questions
and emphatic statements. His
friends outside the White House
have been spurred on to renewed eff,
forts and, when the question comes
up in the Senate, Sentor Lodge will
have 10y him an amount OF ammuni
ton with which To put the opposi-
ttan to hasty flight, Whethers The
PreSideut's friends are warranted in
their helaef i questionable but sshey
heliete that they have all the logic
oftHe situation an their side and
ehat will carry the day.
The most powerful impleme OF
wal fare at Mr.. Lodges eomHand
will be letter written by H r.
Oxnard, president OF the AmE jean
Beet Sugar Company and coanter-
signed by W. Bayard Cuttiag, a
director of the same company The
letter was issued in 1899 and de-
hnitely stated that There is, how
ever, no fear that Cuban production,
even under an annexation to the
Uunited States, can, in our day, ex.
pand to the point where the : United
States would become exporters of
sugar instead of importers and hence
that protection would no longer
pro Get. The letter goes on to say
that AS sugar can be produced more
cheaplv here than in Europe that
even with the free trade provided by
the Mckinley tariff bill the price of
sugar never iell below 5000 per
ton which might be assumed rs he
lowest price to which sugar would
go under free trade, that beet, II c

MIR. Roosevelt continues to demon

methods are particularly clean Ills
appointment of Mr. Henry { PAYNE

Smith, as Postmaster Gvnrfal is
considered master stroke. Mr.

table a long aud successful fsoktieal

that Mr.. Payne would succeed MIR.
Hanna as chairman of the national
committee but that report is dis
credited and it is believed that Sena-
tor Hanna is too good philosopher
to make such step necessary.
In the contentious OF the various
factions which have. from time to

W. M. OzIER. whose excellent ser.
vices as assessor have been of ines
tithable value to Boone county in
the pass, is announced this week as
candidate for reelection. For
twenty-five years he has been a resi-.
dent OF our county and this is the
only office he has ever filled, or asked
for. In the discharge of his duties
he has labored effectively to hold up
the aggregate oil assessment, while
at the same time distributing the
burdens fairly amongst all. The
tax-dodger has found him hard
man to get around, but no poor
man has been permitted TO over-esti.
mate his values. AS an evidence of
the efficiency of his work along these
lines attention is called to the fact
that, leaving out the 500, 900,
which is the assessed value oil rail
road property in the county, the in-
crease in this years assessment over
that of 1899 is, in personal property
S1S5 $50, and in real estate $685.
1885, total of 1858, 97S. Should
he be reelected MIR. Ozier promises
in the future as in the past to bend
every possible effort for a full and
fair assessment of the county and he
has already proved himself just the
man for the work.

THAT there was extravaganza in
the reiurnishing of the hall of the
House and the House committee
rooms of the National Capitol was
to be expected, as the money was
spent by republicans and that party
has always been extravagant with
public money. Some of the items in
the total expenditure of SCI, 900, for
re'iurnishine are little startling to
those who believe that buying luxu-
r,ous furnishings are not l4giti-
mate expenditure of public funds.
The chair in which Speaker Hender.
son sits cost 1921, which is about
$500 more than would have bought
a comfortable chair that would have
answered all the purposes for which
this imperial throne is used. The
mahogany desks of the members
cost S11 900, and the new furniture
of the committee rooms S11 ,464 60.
The clocks in the committee rooms
cost $3.50. which is unquestionably
expensive time The mirrors cost
81, 200 Think of that! These
rooms are not to be used hv> young
and beautiful women, but by a lot
OF middle aged men, with mugs that
vii! average about as ugly as those
found in gathering of the same
number OF men anywhere, and it
was certainly a waste of good mon
ey to pay $4,000 for mirrors for
them to look at themselves, unless
they had the magic quality of max
ing them see themselves as others
see them In that case no price
would have been too his to pay for
them.
