Senator Plat did not actively back the

James +. Plat before his appointment as
I police judge In Meridcn had been but an
Indifferent lawyer and that as a iurist
some of his rulings had been found
faulty. Attorney General Knox investi-
gated this and found the reports without

The Gould Party.

President Gre orge Gould, of the Missouri Pacific system, passed through here Friday en route to points on the new road being built up the White river country on a special train of six coaches. He was accompanied by his family and private secretary. President E. T Jeffrey of the Rio Grande and Russell Harding, third vice president of the Missouri Pacific, were also in the party.
 Mr. Gould has been out on a trip of inspection over the entire system. 1t was not his intention to come to Arkansas, but 1t seems that he changed his plans at Cof- feeville, Kan, switched to the Valley road and made the trip to Little Rock. The train arrived there about 8 o'clock on Thursday afternoon and the party immedi- ately went over to the North Side and spent most of the time inspect ing the new shops and other im- provements there.

PRESIDENTIAL TIMBER lion. Tom Johnson, of Ohio, May Lead United Democracy
 on to Victory.

1t is now regarded IS certaini- ty that Hon. Tom Johnson has placed himself directly across the path of Democratic presidential nomination of 1904. His domina- tion of the Ohio Democratic con yention was complete, and every thing that was done was at his direction and dictation. The speci- fic mention of Bryan and Kan sas City" is credited to him not be- cause he is or ever has been in love with "16 to 1,' but because he wishes to attract to him the Bryan wing of the Democratic party. Mir. Johnson stated openly that he was not an advocate of the "16 to 1" theory, but at the same time his platform endorses the tenets of Mr. Bryan. With such state behind him as Ohio and the loyal friends of Mir. Bryan at his back he is regarded as formidable candidate for the presidential nom- nation. His success in business and his keen business sense might serve to attract to him large number of business men who would never lend their support to Mir. Bryan.

i'll Little Rock only about three hours and went from that place over to Memphis.
 At Memphis their plans were again changed and the trip to this part of the system taken up. They came up via Bald Knob and pass ed this place about s o'clock Fri day morning. Their train was preceded by an engine, which ran only about a mile ahead of the special, presumably for the safety of the train carrying Mir. Gould and his family.
 The engine drawing the special bore the number 253 and was the finest one that ever passed over this branch of the road. Mir Gould and family occupied the private cars "Ballyclore" and "Atalanta. :" The last named is the car that was used by Jay Gould when he made his trips over the road.
 The party spent the day along the route of the extension and their train passed back on the re- turn trip about 6 o'clock.

PASSING OF THE HORSE
Western Farmers Discarding the Horse For Traction Gaso-
 line Engines.

"The farmhand's finish is in plain sight" said man who had just returned from the West, re- ports a New York paper. And the farm horse Is headed down the same pike. In their stead is coming the httle choo- cho0 engine of the traction type.
 'sOut in the prairie region the tendency is all toward hIg farms, The agricultural unit out there has been tue quarter section Of l60 acres.
 Few of the farmers are satis- fled now with such small bunch of laud, and they are reaching out all the time for more. Wheat ard corn have been topping tbe market at such prices that nearly every fellow is crazy to go into raising them on a good bug scale. And they have the money and the intelligence to do 1t and to do it prnftably.
 Right here is where invention comes on. On the ordinary farm, where two CT three men with the same number of teams of horses can do all the work, it isn't really necessary to cali on the machine man for artificial aid, but when the farming is done on a big scale 1t pays better to buy d traction engine. These are not the ordi- nary big clumsy attachments to threshing outfits, but oompactly built little fellows, with gasoline as the motive power.
 With them there is no need of getting out at ungodly hours in the morning to feed and water :, lot of animals. Five minutes work fills the tank and makes the machine ready 10 do your blow ing, tarrowiIg or cultivatiog
 The first cost of these engines is pretty steep, from Sl ,000 up, hut 1t costs less to run them than it does to feed horses, and they never get haIIsy. They last long CT than the average workEorse and they dn ten times as much work i'll a day.
 Out in Nebraska l ran across Il fellow with gang blow, five in a row, llI ched to one of these little engines, and il was steadily moving across the 1G0-acre field tearing up the sod Ut d lively rate. This same man told me that when II came to narrowing be tackled on two or three big ones and did the job ill Il fourth of the former time.
 When it comes tune in the Fall to thresh the engine Is coup

led to separator mc the job is done in shcrt order. If it is necessary during the winter to grind feed for the cattle it is the work of but few minutes to fire it up and start the mill. When grain is to be hauled to market several farm wagons are attached and the procession moves off.
 "There is scare ely a thing about farm work that these machines will not do, and they are growing more popular every year. The average farmer thought the acme of comfort and perfection had been reached in the sulky blow and the riding cultivator, which saved him many weary steps, and it has not been without consider able trouble that he has been in- duced to take up the traction en- glne.
 Hundreds of these are now being manufactured and sold every year. It doesn't take long to learn this, and the cost of keep ing one running is only Il few cents an hour.
 "Sixty-cent wheat and 50 cent corn are making western farmers, where 30 bushels of whe and 50 of corn Is an average yield, inde- pendently rich. A hundred acres of wheat Is an ordinary field, and this alone Is enough to net a good income on the investment.
 A bunch of cattle will pay the expenses, and his other crops are velvet. The result has been to run up the price of land.
 'Tracts that sold for $25 two years ago bring $40 and $45, and $50 land of past years is easily marketable at $50 and $60. The lie is much easier, the work is not nearly so hard, nor the hours 50 long.
 "This has had the good effect of making the farmers sons more content with life on the farm. ard many of them go down to the state agricultural schools and take Il coulse in scientific agriculture, returning better farmers and bet ter citizens.
 "The rural free mail delivery, with it's facilities fol keeping in touch wi'h the life of the outside world, and the bicycle as d sub stitute for the carriage are also helping in the work of popular izing agriculture. ,

Arkansas Cotton.

Hester's cotton report for the season just closed shows that the output of Arkansas was nearly a million bales of cotton. Of this amount not five thousand bales, or less than per cent of the out put, was consumed by cotton mills in the state. The compari- son with states east of the Mis- sls,ippi is very anfavorable to tue state. South and North Carolina have d demand for cotton of near ly million bales, or the entire output of Arkansas, in excess 0t the amount raised Ill those states. Various reasons are given by the cotton men of Little Rock as to the reason for the enormous diff ference in the production and consumption of the state.
