BLUE GRASS
1t Il n Native of the wabash valley
In Indiana.

"a great many people contend that
blue grass was first found in Ken
lucky" said an eminent Indiana geolo-
gist but this is not SO, Blue grass
is native Of the Wabash valley. in
Indiana. 1t was found by William
Henry HarrisOn's troops during that
solemn march to Tippecanoe in ls11.
Harrison gathered a small army at
Ohio Falls and started north At Vi2-
cennes the gallant heroes realized that
they could not go 200 miles up the
Wabash without feed for their horses
General Harrison had two cribs of
corn at Terre Haute and persuaded the
men to go on. AS they came on with
hungry horses and scant feed they
found the ground covered with blue
grass.
Six miles west Of Newport, on the
Collett farm, was found bountiful
supply Of blue grass Some places In
the bottom it was growing three feet
high, and such feed had never been
heard of by the Kentucky soldier At
State Line City more blue grass was

RATIFICATION FOR GRAPHIC.

The Graphic feels much gratifed oy-
er the organization Of the Board Of
Trade. About year ag1, the Graphic
called attention to the fact that an
active working organization Of the
business men, laborers, and every
body who could at all be enlisted in
the upbuildlng Of the city, was abso-
lutely necessary, if the city was TO
make those strides toward CONNER
seial Importance which it sh ~Uld n or
der to prevent a reverse movement, as
there could be no standstil position
progression or retrogression. It SEEM
ed as if the efforts Of the Graphic to
bring about the desired result were to
go unrewarded. but realizing that
nothing worth attaining is accom- plish-
ed ia a day, the Graphic kept up its
fight for an effective organization for
pushing Pine Bluff Within year
from the time the Graph begun the
agitation the organization was thing
of reality
It is composed Of many Of the best
business and professional men, in all
lines, in the city, and the Graphic an
tlcipates fine results from the Board
of Trade. It's c+ficers and committees
are men Of energy and advanced ideas.
The Graphic is ready at any and all
times TO render the board any assist
anee possible in accomplishing its
work. The newspapers Of city are
it's best friends. They are ever ready
to Dc anything for the npbuilding of
the city, and the Graphic allow no
paper in Pine Blu to be more loyal
than itself to the better interests of
the city, and the Board of Trade will
find it ever ready to lend its aid.
A little over a yeas ago the Graphic
began an agitation for Improved
streets 1t advocated the election Of
city administration that would en-
courage the building # permanent
streets It worked To arouse tho peo-
pie to the necessity Of permanent
streets The present administration
is composed of men VINO are fer I'M
proved streets, and rae people are
new so thoroughly aroused in the mat
ter that m3re Improvement districts
are created for street improvement
than can be aiaed by the city. Several
miles Of improved streets wre put
down last year and several mere viii
be put down this year.
The Graphic certainly feels gratified
over seeing those t.ings for which
it has contended coming so quickly.
It has hopes that the cotton mill
will yet czme, because 1t believes TIT
the people realize what the import
ance of cotton mill would be to the
city, and whenever they have the
matter properly presented TO them
they will take hold CT it in that way
which will mean a cotton mill for Pine
