GEE ded in remounting again. Riding
alongside the Marshal grabbed his man
and both fell TO the ground, the officer
on top. AT this juncture, VIM. Smith

fertd, and it would have gone hard
with Rainbolt, but for the timely aid
of Gao. Kirby, who came to his assist
ance. Cornelius was overpowered and
landed in the calaboose. The Smiths
were afterwards arrested by Deputy
Sheriff Murphfee. Cornelius was fined

The following petition, asking the re-

To the Board of Mayor and Aldermen
OF the Incorporated Town of For
rest City, Arkansas:
Gentlemen - We, the undersigned
| resident citizens Of st. Francis County,
Arkansas, would most respectfully
state and represent unto this Honora-
BILE Board that the ordinance providing
for the licensing of meat markets and
prohibiting all parties, unless they have
such license, from selling fresh meats
on the streets or to the inhabitants of
Forrest City, is calculated to entail
great loss upon the producers of the
county, who raise stock for market.
The effect of the law is to curtail the
market and place it within the power
OF one or two individuals to control the
price and to discourage farmers from
raising stock, and we most respectfully
ask and pray that said ordinance be
repealed.

A Harmonious Convention.

The republican staoe conven-
tion held in Denver last Tuesday
was the most harmonious conven-
ton held by that party in Color
ado for many years. There was
but one nomination for Office at
the disposal of the convention
and that was made by acclama-
ton, the Hon. John Campbell,
chief justice of the supreme
court, being nominated to succeed
himself.
Ex- Senator r. O. Wolcott was
elected temporary chairman of
the convention and delivered one
of the finest speeches ever heard
in Colorado. The senator ex-
pressed his willingness to forgive
his enemies in the party, and
counseled his followers to do like
wise; such course being followed
he felt sure that the future would
hold nothing but victory for the
united party.
Judge N. Walter Dixon of
Pueblo. was made permanent
chairman and he too delivered
fine address, following the same
lines lald down by Senator VOL
colt.
The name of Justice Campbell
was placed in nomination by Con-
gresham Franklin E. Brooks, of
Colorado Springs, who paid an
eloquent tribute to the judicial in
tegrity and eminent ability of the
distinguished nominee. The NOM
ination of Justice Campbell was
seconded by number of dele
gates and a motion prevailed to
make the nomination by acclama-
ton.
After the adoption Of suitable
resolutions the convention ad-
journed sine die, peace and hur-
mony prevailing.

She was thin and weak and
paid one dollar for a bottle of

twelve pounds in weight before

the court room last Saturday af-

been called for the purpose of Sc
lecting three delegates to the state
convention held in Denver Tues
day. The delegates selected were
P. B. Upson, H. G. McNew, and

chosen a resolution was introduc-
ed by Judge Pound instructing
them to do all in their power to
further the candidacy of Judge
d. E. Asmour for justice of the
supreme court should he allow his
name to be presented to the state
convention. The resolution was
unanimously adopted, but Judge
Armour decided not to allow his
name to 90 before the convention,
and the Sedgwick county delega-
tion acceded to his wishes, and
assisted in making the nomination
of Judge John Campbell, the
present incumbent of the office,
unanimous.
