COUNTY CONNECTS
 TO WORK ROADS.
Judge Scarborough Makes an Innova- tion Tn Requiring County Con-
 victs to Serve Sentences
 Working Public Roads.

Judge o. w. Scarborough has given an order to the sheriff for the work ing of the public roads of Jackson county, by the county's convicts, which is decided innovation on the past order of maintaining such prison CTS.
 The order of the county judge re- cites the fact that the court having duly advertised for bids for the main tenance, safe- keeping and working of the prisoners committed to the county jail, none were submitted, whereby satisfactory contract might be concluded. Wherefore, it appear ing to the best interest of the county for such prisoners to be worked on the public roads, bridges, leyees and other improvements for the county, the court orders that all convicted prisoners committed for contempt of court, except those sentenced to the penitentiary, shall be worked on such works of public improvement as ar named above.
 John H. Dye, Jr., has been ap- pointed to act as superintendent of such county convicts, being author ized to employ such guards and adopt such rules to prevent escape of the prisoners as are necessary, and the sheriff is ordered to deliver to said superintendent, all prisoners in his custody, and receive them back at any time the superintendent shall so desire. The term of such manual labor of each convict shall be as many days as $.75 is contained times in the total amount of such prisoners fine and costs including Sundays, in ex- cess of any liability for care and sick ness of such prisoner.
 Four negro prisoners were taken out Monday morning under the terms of the above court order and are being worked on the Newport Angus ta road near McLain's mill about five miles from town. They were Broom Couch, Nathan Allen, Joe Westbrook and Big Boy"

INJUNCTION SUIT FILED
 BY REGULARS.
Trump Card of Regulars Played, Seek ing to Restrain Secretary of State From Certifying Greaves'
 Name as Nominee
 for Governor.

Harry H. Myers, regular Republican nominee for governor, filed a petition for injunction in the Pulaski chancery court Monday morning to prevent Secretary of State John w. Crockett from certifying the name of Charles D. Greaves as Republican nominee for governor. The argument was be- gun that afternoon before Chancellor Martin, Col w. G. Whipple represent ing MT. Myers and Col. w. F. Hill, of the firm of Hill X Auten, and Scipio Jones appearing for Secretary of State Crockett and Mr. Greaves. The pro- ceedings will be resumed Tuesday aft ernoon, the further argument of the opposing attorneys to begin at 2 o'clock in the chancery court room. The case was postponed at the request of Col. Hill, who said he had not had sufficient time to look up the law.

PASSENGER DISCONTINUED,

Announcement was made Monday by the Choctaw officials that the pas senger train running between New port and Brinkley on the White and Black River branch of the Choctaw, Oklahoma and Gulf Railway would be discontinued, effective Wednesday, August 18th.
 The reason assigned for this retro grade step was that the passenger business did not meet the expense of such a service, and while it came from subordinate officials, General Superin- tendent Wentz is no doubt responsible for the change.
 The only train on the branch now will be mixed train, leaving Brinkley about 5:30 a. m., arriving here between 10 and II a. m. and de- parting about i p. m.
 The action of the new management is surprising in view of the fact that the passenger business has shown steady increase. At Newport alone the receipts for the month of July showed an increase of 120 per cent. over the same month of last year. Without a passenger service the Choc- Jaw can hope for nothing but local business from here, and the branch will no longer prove the feeder it has in the past.
 It is to be hoped and many believe that the discontinuance of such service will last but short while, as the de- crease in receipts must become appar- ent at once to the road officials.

COUPLING PINS.

The Frisco road has orders from j.. G. McNair, the peach king at St. Elmo for thirty cars day for several days to be used in shipping his immense peach crop.
 The Western Tie and Timber Co.,, one of the largest concerns in South Missouri, is preparing to raft 3OO,O00 ties from Doniphan to Black Rock, where they will be loaded by the Frisco and transported to the Vest ern States. It~will take three months to get the ties down Black River and it will cost s15,OoO to get them to Black Rock.

our attention, as to induce us to be- lieve that an extension of our road to Little Rock might be made to serve important interests in your state, and at the same time be made profitable investment. The roads that we now have under construction will all be low grades, not exceeding ten and onehalf feet to the mile, and if we can build this extension with these grades and within reasonable limits of cost, and your people will treat us fairly and liberally, as they did the Choctaw, Oklahoma and Gulf, we shall be prepared to enter upon the work immediately. It will perhaps be another thirty days before the re- ports of our engineers will be before us."

AUTEN TO SPEAK
 TUESDAY EVENING.

Hon. H. F. Auten of Little Rock, in accordance with dates announced, will speak at the court house Tuesday evening August 12, at 8 p. m.
 In the hand bill announcements sent forward, it is stated that he twill speak upon the issues of the day and discuss the boodling and corrupt methods of the Clayton gang" Mr. Auten is one of the leaders of the in- surgent wing of the republican party and is supporting Charles D. Greaves in his candidacy for governor. He is recognized as an able attorney and his campaign address will no doubt be such a severe arraignment of the regular party organization as to be interesting to democrats and repub- licans alike.

TO BRIDGE WHITE
 AT BUFFALO CITY


 Yellville, Aug. 11.-It is said the railroad will not make switch at Buff falo City. This seems to prove that they are going to cross the river at Buffalo City and come up on this side. There are two corps of surveyors in the field on this side of the river just west of the crossing at Lakes Ferry One is coming up on the south side of Falling Ash creek and the other on the north side. These are preliminary surveys and it is thought that if they should build on either one that the one on the south side of Falling Ash will be taken. Should they do this, Yell vile will be within less than one mile of the main line. They will pass along the base of Lees mountain, just north of town. It is said that the road will, without doubt, be built up Crooked creek from White river by way of YellviIle, or it will be built either on the south or north side of Ealing Ash creek. Tn either case the road will pass within three miles of Yellville.

MARIANNA SECURES RAILROAD

Sixty days ago the leading citizens of Marianna raised a bonus of about $7, 900 and promised the right of way through the city to the company that would build the proposed railroad from Memphis to this point. This proposi- tion to remain open for acceptance for sixty days only. The limit expired last Tuesday, but the day previous the Missouri Pacific railway system tele- graphed Hon. E. A. McCulloch, who represented the citizens in the dicker, that the proposition was accepted on their part. This, we presume, assures the building, by way of Marianne, of the road, which has been in contem- plation for some time by that compa- ny, from Memphis to Trippe, Ark, giving the shortest and most direct route from Memphis to New Orleans. The building of this road will redound much to the general interest and pro- gress of our little city. and it is to be congratulated on having secured it mainly through the instrumentality and liberality of it's worthy citizens.

PRESIDENT ERB'S LETTER.

President Newman Erb, of the St. Louis, Memphis and Southeastern has written Secretary George R. Brown of the Little Rock board of trade, the following letter:
 "As you are doubtless aware, the St. Louis, Memphis and Little Rock Railroad Company has been organized under the Arkansas law in the in terest of the St. Louis, Memphis and Southeastern Railroad Company, for the purpose of authorizing the con- struction of our proposed extension from Hoxie to Little Rock. Tn order to preclude the possibility of your being misled, it is proper that I should say to you that the organiza- ton of the new company does not necessarily imply that the extension will internationally be entered upon. It is intended to give us status for the purpose of completing the neces- sary engineering work incident to as- pertaining the probable cost of con- struction and to enable us to deal with matters incident to the construction. As pointed out to you while in Little Rock, we have been so favorably inn pressed with the conditions prevail ing in your city, which you brought to
