CENTER.

Mrs. Andy Hogan is in poor
health.
Mrs. Lintz, one mile south OF
town, has pneumonia.
Seven children of Mrs. w. H.
Hulett have the measles.
Uncle David Spurlock is up
again and seems as we'll as usual.
Measles and sore throats are
common in this section, together
with some pneumonia.
w. F. Stewart has a bad attack
of throat trouble. DR.. Watkins of
Evening Shade was over Sunday
to see him.
Uncle Bob Spurlock suffered a
fall some time ago in which he
hurt his back, and has been quite
feeble since.
The candidates commenced
bowling at Kings Mill on the 18th,
They are not killing any sheep,
but are eating all the dead hog
and other stuff they can get. The
issue seems to be Davis and
Wood, and the good people are
not in it. Such political bun
combe and bosh!
Elder W. H. Hulett died Satur-
day night, March II, after an at
tack of measles and erysipelas.
He leaves a widow and ten chill
dren. Mr.. Hulett was a pros
porous farmer and stock dealer,
and will be missed by this COM
munity. The bereft ones have
the heartfelt sympathy Of many
friends.
Last Sunday, March 13, was
Uncle Enoch Hollis 81st birthday.
His children, grand children and
great grand children and friends,
to the number of about 100, took
dinner with him. Uncle Enoch
and wife are both in very feeble
health. We hope for them, how
ever, many other pleasant oc-
casions.

A GREAT EUGAB00.

The friends of Governor Davis
all over the state are attempting
to make capital out of the fact
that the railroads gave q rate of
one half fare to Little Rock on
account Of the convention OF
Wood clubs last week. They point
to this fact as evidence that the
railroads are interested in the
election of Judge Wood. But the
people will not forget that the
railroads give a reduced rate to
all big gatherings; democratic,
republican and populist conven-
tions, and the friends of Governor
Davis had as well claim that the
railroads stand in with the re-
publicans, pops and prohis as the
Wood democrats. The railroads
give q reduced fare rate to all big
religious gatherings and perhaps
the Methodists or Baptists or
Presbyterians have a stand-in
with the railroads. The railroads
cut the fare to all things likely to
attract large crowds. It's dollars
they are after. The claim that
the rate to Littl0 Rock was re-
duced in the interest of Judge
Wood should not engage the at
tention of a right thinking, fair
minded man a half minute.

Scipio Jones In Pulaski.

Governor Davis appointed
Scipio Jones, a negro of this city,
election commissioner for Pulaski
county, and he is holding that
office today. Governor Davis
cannot place the blame nor any
part of it on the other members
of the state board of election COM
missioners. General Murphy
protested at the time at this ap-
pointment and Davis will not say
otherwise. Scipio Jones is we'll
known negro attorney OF this city,
and was appointed as the Repub-
lican member of the county elec'
ton commission. White election
judges in this county were thus
made amenable TO him. 1t is no
wonder that one Of the governors
advisers sought TO have the Pu-
laski primaries left open to the
negroes. Doubtless Scipio Jones'
friends would have remembered
Davis for appointing a negro
election commissioner, and he
would have secured the entire
negro vote.--Democrat.

of goods.
Elder Douglas was called to

denly at Hardy with pneumonia.
She only lived about 36 hours
after being stricken.
The farmers in this locality are
preparing their land for corn.
Now look out for 30 and Is cent
corn next year as the cotton crop
will be enormous. So plant more
corn and less cotton and hold up
the country.
Ash Flat will soon have another
large business house, occupied by
| S. P. Turner and |. &. Ritchie,
which will make a strong firm.
Our little town is on a great boom
at present and will continue so as
we have the farming. country to
back it up.
The candidates have come and
gone, and some Of them are got

issues Of the day and keep out of
the governors race. Lots OF
people think they are running for
governor. The representatives
are having hot fight
The school at this place is
proving to be grand success,
there are new pupils entering
daily. We need a larger house
