81 800 worth of tickets to the mer-
chants in advance, these tickets to
be taken UP in transportation.
The county court thas promised to
put the public roads in excellent
shape by grading and repairing when
ever it may be needed. so that the
planters may come to Pine Bluff with
their cotton. Nearly every cent of
the proceeds on cotton is spent in the
city where it is sold. and many of
the merchants pay the transportation
for their customers. and the $1,5OO
will be sufficient to help the Clegg
boys in securing the ferry. and they
agree to guarantee frst-class steam
ferry if they can dispose of the 81, 500
in tickets.

Conservative cotton men estimate
that the city of Pine Bluff annually
loses 10000 bales of cotton because
of the fact that the facilities for cross
ing the river at this point are SO in
aequate that the farmers can not be
accommodated. Estimating it at $40
per bale means 100000 worth of trade
that the city of Pine Bluff loses. The
figures are so large that it does not
seem possible that it can be true that
that amount Of business is being lost

Bryan Democrats Nay Support
Roosevelt in Next Campaign

Lincoln, Neb., May 19.-The Omaha
World-Herald, edited by r. l.. Met
calf. the closest political friend W. J.
Bryan has in the west published a
three-coumn editorial, serving notice
that if the reOrganizers in the Dem.
xbcratic party obtain control the Bry-
an wing will support MIR. Roosevelt
for president in the next campaign.
1t confesses that President Harrison
was a great and pure man; that the
Democrats were deceived about him
at first; that he was defeated by the
corporations, and that the same in
fuences are now undermining Mr..
Roosevelt and trying to elevate Gro.
yer Cleveland.
The same paper will publish tomor-
row morning letter sent by Mr.. Met
cal to Norman e. Mack, editor of the
Buffalo Times, and New York's mem
Der of the Democratic national COM
mittee, which is regarded as Bryan's
ultimatum for peace or war with the
Cleveland, or eastern, forces of the
Democratic party.
The letter is believed to be destined
to become the gauge of battle between
the Bryan supporters and those of
Grover Cleveland, or to bring peace
between these forces.
1t is anticipated that Mr.. Mack will
not reply to the letter without con-
sultation with the Cleveland leaders,
and his reply will be taken by Mr..
Bryan as the ultimatum of the fol-
lowers of the former president, just
as this letter is unquestionably the ul-

timatum of Mr. Bryan, declaring his
firm adherence to t:le principles enun-
ciated in the Kansas City platform.
Mr, Bryan was formerly the editor
of the World-Hera]d, and it was Mr..
Metcalf who carried out Mr. Bryan's
views at Kansas City Mr. Bryan will
not admit that the editorials have his
sanction. He said, when questioned,
that he had not read them, and that
he had medium of his own through
which he could speak. 1t is believed
he has given his silent assent to their
publication.
Many prominent Bryan Democrats
for the last year have limited that they
would support Mr. Roosevelt rather
than Mr.. Cleveland.
The letter of Mr. Metcalf to Mr..
Mack is in answer to the latter's re-
cent editorial on harmony" Mr.. Met
calf adroitly pretends to seek for har-
mony, but he reviews each plank In
the Kansas City platform and indi-
Gates that the Bryan wing of the%Bry.

ination of any one of them. -.
&. He says: ut must be apparent. to
every one that NO genuine progress
has been made in the so-called effort
at harmonizing the Democratic party.
l respectfully ask you to present for
the benefit of Democrats generally and
in the interests of genuine harmony
an outline of what the Democratic
platform SHOULD be in order that it
may not incur the hostility of Mr..
Cleveland and his followers"

Young Men in the Administration.

In the treasury department the high
Offices are held, almost without eXcep-
tion, by men comparatively young.
The two assistant secretaries of the
treasury, equal in rank, are extremely
youthful for positions of such impor-
tance Milton E. Allies was appointed
in 1901 at the age of thirty-four. Rob-
ert B. Armstrong, the youngest man
who ever filled the office. was born
in 1873. Allies rose from being an
assistant messenger in the depart
ment near whose head he now stands.
His career is a noteworthy example
of dogged persistence. From the low
est grade in the department he has
won his way, step by step. mainly
through civil service examinations and
always by merit. and it took him
only the ccmpa! atively short time Of
twelve years to reach his present posi-
tiOn. From a farm where he was born

and, while still a messenger, he at
tended law school evenings and was
admitted to the bar. Recently Mr..
Allies resigned his post to become vice
president and director of the Riggs
National bank. one Of the oldest bank
ing institutions I'M Washington.
The career of his predecessor, Will
liam B. Howell, has been very similar
to that of Mr.. Allies. Mr.. Howell went
from business college to the treas

examination ever held in the depart-
ment He only gained a petty clerk
ship at first, but by further examlna-
tions he passed through grade after
grade becoming secretary to four diff
