ARKANSAS CROP MAY
 REACH ONE MILLION,

Col. John G. Fletcher, considered an authority on the fieecy staple, stated Thursday to reporter for the Little Rock Gazette that the farmers in Arkansas are now very hopeful of fair yield of cotton, with good prices, which means 10 cents or higher.
 ssThe weather the past month has been decidedly favorable for all crops," said Col Fletcher. ;sCorn has done well and cotton has made won derful progress. Many farmers think that with favorable weather from now on we will raise full crop, or from soc, ,O00 to 1,0O0,00O bales in Arkansas.
 'sThere has been some complaint about too much rain for cotton planted on bottom lands. John R. Frazier, one of the largest planters in Pulaski county, reported this morning the appearance of worms on about thirty acres on his plantation. He has started to putting Paris green on the plant, and thinks he will have no trouble killing them out before they can do any damage.
 "The supply of cotton is smaller to- day than for years, and at the same time the demand is greater, which will undoubtedly keep prices up. The crop will be about three weeks later than usual, and picking will not be- come general before the 18th or 20th of September.
 "Many mills are shutting down ow- ing to the high price ald scarcity of cotton, and are waiting for new cotton to come in. It will be October before anything like good supply comes in."

 Princeton, Aug. 19, 1903. gro the Members of the Thirty fourth General Assembly,:
 "The failure of the deaf mute ap- propriation bill passed by the last gen. eral assembly to become law is, 1 feel sure, source of regret to us all. It is also to be regretted that we made no provision for the equipment and furnishing of the asylum annex when completed. As to whose fault this is, this is neither time nor place to dis cuss. situation confronts us which is equally deplored by us all, and the welfare of the unfortunates of these institutions should have our first con- sideration rather than the last.
 'sI therefore take this method of ap- pealing to you to join me in re- quest of Gov. Jefferson Davis that he call the Thirty fourth general assem- bly, in extra session for the purpose of making proper appropriation for these institutions and considering any other matter which his excellency may include in his call, with the ex- press understanding that we shall bear our own expenses while attend 
 ing said session and make no charge against nor demand upon the state for either mileage or per diem.
 1T appeal to you to lay aside self interest and write me your assent to this proposition, that 1 may commu- nicate our decision to his excellency at the earliest practicable moment. Very respectfully,
