Trying to Sir up a Fight

Harry Root in his Sixth District
notes to the State Journal indicates
that politics in Phillips county are TO
peaceable to suit bis ideas of good
campaign, and tries to inclte the
"other fellows" into action. We've
had too much fight already and the
republicans are not over it yet, but
the sooner they are, the better 1t will
be forall concerned. Here Is what be
says;
at isn't usually the casein the Sixth

without opposition. This looks like
the case Of @. W. Hull, of Kirwln, who
wants to represent Phillips county in

AFTER GULF OUTLETS,
Aim of All important Railroads in the
South.

Baltimore. Nd, Dec. 23-The rail-
stances showing the aim of all the i'm
portant lines there to reach ports upon
the Gulf of Mexico, particularly since
the construction of a Panama Canal
has been assured, giving warrant for
great expectations Of heavy tonnage to
follow the opening of that interoceanic
waterway. One is a report from New
Orleans crediting an official of the
Southern Pacific Railway visiting there
with saying that the company would
not he satisfied until it had reached
Gulf outlet at both Gulfport, Miss, be-
cause of great Importance, especially in
lumber, and Pensacola, Fla. He also
said that plans were now under con-
sideration and practically agreed on to
build a bridge across the Mississippi
river at Baton Rouge, with a line fifty
two miles long connecting with the
Southern Pacific at Lafayette, La. All
that remained to be done was to finance
the bridge project, and it was the fur
Their purpose of the company to con-
tinue eastward to the ports named. An
other very interesting and important
report comes from Nashville, Tenn. to
the effect that the Tennessee Central
Railrcad company is considering plans
to build two large extensions, one to
birmingham, Ala, and the other to
Chattanooga. The first would be direct
from Nashville to the great Alabama
mineral region, and the other would be

| from CrOSSville, Tenn. An officer of
the company declined to either affirm
| or deny the report, which is said to
come from Il source close to the control
of the road.
These are but typical of the tenden-
cies in railroad construction in the
South, which includes, moreover, the
building up of smaller lines through
virgin territory. A letter to the Manu-
facturers' Record tells of one of these
operating through thirty or forty miles
of territory in two Georgia counties.
It is the Tallulah Falls Railway, which
by opening up fifteen miles of new
trackage last spring gave a great i'm
petus to the development Of the coun-
ties. The letter says:
"As proof of the prosperity along our
lines, we have net increase of twenty
five per cent. in the earnings of our
road over the previous year. Delight
full fall weather has evidently been
taken advantage of by the farmers
along our line if one is to judge by the
increased acreage of fall plOughing.
The apple and the peach growers have
also been benefited by this mild fall
show plenty of cultivation and thrift.
Never in the history of these two coun-
ties has there been greater activity in
the building line than is shown at the
present time. Especially is this true in
towns along our new road-Wlley,
Tiger and Clayton. There are several
new industries in the process of con-
struction, namely. silk plant, brick
plant, ice plant, starch plant and an
asbestos plant. This latter industry is
we'll under way and turning out a fin
ished product at Turnerville, Ga. We
understand that this asbestos plant is
turning out a new product known as
asbestos plaster and meeting with
great success"
Out of the Southwest similar activi
ties are reported. Along the Frisco, for
instance, plants are working their men
full time and business is very good.
The Southwest is filling up very rapid
ly with new settlers, and tits estimated
that approximately each month 1890
immigrants are being carried over the
lines to different points in the South
west, where they are commencing the
work of breaking the SOIL besides
building homes and carrying on gener-
al farming. On account of this heavy
immigration and because of the settling
up of the country new towns are
springing up, and different lines of
business houses are being established
at each town, and numerous industries
of all kinds are being established.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
dlslnfectant and puriner in nature, but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present in
the stomach and inteStines and car
rles them out Of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whtens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison Of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they
are composed of the, finest powdered
w COdl, dllu OtIlcT UdTIIlleSS
antiseptics in tablet form or rather in
the. form Of large, pleasant tasting
lozenges, the charcoal being mixed
with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will

Of the general health, better COM
plexion, sweeter breath and purer
blood. and the beauty Of it is, that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use, but on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking of
the benefits Of charcoal, says: II ad-
wise Stuart's Charcoal LoZenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stomach
