Indications are that Arkansas

proper because ofthe miles ofrlver

through her various levee associa-
tons. 1t is gratifying to know
that the state In general will be
represented by delegates from the
State Board Of Trade, and that
both the Arkansas Cotton Deal.

Rock Board of Trade, as well as
the city government, will have
delegated representation. The
