Logan Not A Candidate.

In a letter to THE TRIBUNE given below from State Senator John P. Logan he sets forth his declination to become 8 candi- date for congress.
 Under all the circumstances we think Mr. Logan has acted wisely. THE TRIBUNE pointed out some weeks ago that this was not the opportune time for MT. Logan to make the race and for the very reason that he gives in his letter. John P Logan can serve the peo- pie of Arkansas in no better way for the next year than in the capacity he now holds, that of Worlds Fair Commissioner. Fol- lowing is his letter:
 Sloan Springs, Oct. 20, 1903,
 To the Democratic Voters of the Third Congressional District:
 On account of the many solici- tations that 1 have received, and the pressure that has been brought to bear upon me to enter the race for congress in this district, 1 feel that in justice to my friends that 1 should give some express sion, or indication, of my inten- tions in the matter.
 I wish at the outset to thank my friends for their expressions of friendship, and offers of as- sistance and support; and while I am not unmindful of the honor that they have paid me in thus soliciting me to make the race, at the same time I feel that it would not be right for me to en- ter the race at this election. Having been selected by the Worlds Fair board of this state to gather the fruit, and to have charge of the Horticultural Ex- hibit at St. Louis, it would be impossible for me to devote the time and attention necessary to make the exhibit a success, and at the same time carry on g. politi- cal campaign.
 On account of the poor quality of fruit in the state this year, it is taking all my time to get to- ge5her anything like a credit able display. So 1 realize that the interest of the state demands laying aside of personal and political ambition on my part, in order to carry out the work be- fore me.
 Therefore, I have decided not to enter the race for congress at this time. Again thanking my friends for their kindness, 1 re- main, Very truly yours,
 JNo. P. LOGAN.

Arkansas State Building.

The following descri ption of the Arkansas State Building ap- peared in the Worlds Fair Bulle- tin: "The Plateau of States" is headed by Arkansas building. The main entrance to the build ing will lead to a reception hall 27x30 feet. The floor is of native wood, with an inlaid border of light and dark wood contrasting, a large rug or fountain in the center. The walls are to be tint ed in dark, rich empire green, with a deep border frieze about three feet, decorated by hand with boughs of apple blossoms, the state floral emblem, glimpses of sky and cloud showing g through. Facing the entrance may be seen a handsome marble mantle-p piece of Eureka Springs onyx, light color and highly polished. There is to be an open fireplace, with hearth tiled with native marble. Over the mantel- piece is to be a mirror, in front of which will be placed a clock, the case made of irregular Hot Springs crystals, with large Hot Springs diamond cut and mounted, if possible, for the pen dulum. It is proposed to have large photographs of noted and picturesque Arkansas scenery on frames of native wood, deco- rated by Arkansas artists in wood carving; also, two or three carved wood chairs and a hall seat in carved wood.

yorEs MADE AT HARRISON.
, Kew Things Observed While
 ;r Roone's Metropolis.

;r Roone's Metropolis.
 t is always 8 round of pleasure
 to visit Harrison, especially to me who has been accustomed to do SO for more than sixteen years.
 t was our pleasure to pay a ,bort visit to this thriving me- tcooolis first of the week, and greet many of our old time friends and, we trust, make many more.
 } Aarrison did not immediately merge into a city upon the ad- vent of the railroad as many thought and confidently expected ! t would, but the town has gradu- ally, steadily and substantially continued to grow and, with the future development of the sur- rounding country, is certain to make small city in 10 distant years.
 Harrison can boast of more elegant and costly residences than any other town of it's size in the state. The past year has been especially an era in which many elegant and costly homes have been erected and this line of Improvements is unabated.
 Harrison now has no saloons and the people are greatly pleased with the contrast. Money used in policing the, town and prose- outing criminals is used for pub- lie improvement. True, the law yers do not have so many clients and doctors do not have so many heads to sew up, but profitable employment in other lines is easily found.
 Harrison IS gong to join the strawberry procession. Fine Strawberry fields are to be found within the corporate limits of the town and their owners are hgur- ing on S200 per acre the coming season. The plants set last spring are in fine condition, have made splendid growth and those versed in their culture say that 8 full crop next season IS almost certain.
 We did not have the time to call on the newspaper fraternity but perusal of the columns of 'their papers would indicate from the number and size of advertise ments Harrison merchants are giving them that they are enjoy Ing an era of prosperity seldom seen outside of the large cities This of course is only an index to what the town is, and the patronage given the Harrison papers would certainly impress the stranger very favorably.
 The citizens of Harrison are getting somewhat impatient on account of the delay of the com mencement of work on the gov ernment building, but the de- partment now assures them that plans are almost completed and J&t in the next few months bids Will be received for it's erection.
 All in all, Harrison is an e2S- celient town, peopled by an ex- eeilent citizenship and unQues- TIonaoly \ has as bright 8 future s9iore 1t as any town in Arkan = sas.

Another Opportunity for Homese ebers
 to Home-seelS.
 The Frisco System again an- nounces that it will sell tickets from St. Louis and Kansas City to points in Oklahoma, Indian Terri tory, Kansas and Texas, at the very low round trip rate of S15.- %. Opportunities for homes in the Southwest are still plentiful, and the best lands are by no means all taken up. Excursion tickets sold at this extremely low rate will be good on any of the Frisco regular trains leaving St. Louis at 2:30 p. m., 9:35 p. m.. and 10:00 p. m., October 20, and leaving Kansas City 7:15 p. m., and 11:30 p. m., on the same date. If you are looking to the Southwest for a future home, this excursion of October 20th is an excellent opportunity to in- vestigate the country.
 Your own home ticket agent will be able to give you full in formation as to rates and limits of tickets.
