ILLINOIS,.

In national campaigns Of the past
States have been designated as pivotal
and upon this proposition New York
and Indiana have been regarded from
time immemOrlal as the KEYSTONE OF
the presidential campaign arch.
This, however, has been largely due
to the fact that other conditions were
regarded as immutablc
These conditions, however, have
been proven by the march Of events aS
no longer fixed.
The State of Illinois, for instance, j.
now looked upon as debatable ground,
and in this State in the approaching
campaign there * bound 10 be a whlrl,
wind Of politics.
Should the Republicans nominate for
reelection the present Governor of the
State-IIon. Richard Yates--the Re,
publicans will have the advantage of Il
strong candidate and a united party.
In the denomination Of Yates lies the
chief hope OF the Republicans of Hi,
nois this year, To turn him down for
no good reason. and none now exists,
and pick up n new man would mean
the loss OF thousands Of votes to the
Republican State ticket.
Illinois Is not as strongly RcpublI,

How to Use q Te1epone.

To be good telephone talker is something of an art. In all cases the transmitter should be as nearly vertical as possible, and so adjusted that it is on level with the lips when the head is in the ordinary arched position of conversation. Then the lips should be about an inch away and directly opposite it's center. Talk about as loud as if speaking to person across the room. But, more than all, care should be taken to talk slowly and to to articulate with the greatest distinctness; to be deliberate on on what one says and to make ample pause at the end of each sentence. Nothing can be more erroneous in using d telephone than to stand at a distance from the instrument and endeavor to affect it by shouting at the top of ones voice.

Fertile Valley of inc Mississippi.

While it is true Oklahoma, Indian Territory and Texas invite the Homeseekers and others in search of a profitable investment and business competency, there is another field along the Frisco System quite recently opened to those interested in a personal betterment of financial resources.
 On June 1st, the line of railroad heretofore known as the St.Louis Memphis & Southeastern, now Frisco System, was extended to St. Louis, thus making territory in Missouri and Arkansas, along the west bank of the Mississippi River, accessible by way of St. Louis. The present service consists of passenger train leav- ing Union Station 7:10 am. daily for Cape Girardeau, Luxora, Charlottesville and intermediate points to Memphis, also the Cape Girardeau accommodation daily, leaving Union Station 4:2O pm.
 Some years since, perhaps quarter of a century, this section was avoided by reason Of want of development or progressive ness; now. however, it IS consld- cred equal, as the homeseeker and investor may measure, to Okla- homa, Indian Territory or Texas. The changein in condition through out was accomplished by large governmental expenditure, a progressive people and extended railroad facilities promoted and maintained by the Frisco System operating, as it does, nearly 700 miles of railway in the immediate Mississippi Valley, less than 300 miles distant from St. Louis.
 The soil is exceedingly fertile, crops invariably abundant, tim Der interests extensive and re- sourceful.

States, which fact is proven by northern people coming here to spend the winter and southern people coming here to spend the summer.
 Our soil is sandy loam, with yellow or red clay subsoil, under laid with limestone, and is espec- tally adapted to the growing of fruits, grasses, clover and COW peas. We can grow as good quality of corn as can be grown anywhere and from 25 to 75 bushels to the acre; wheat 10 to 30 bushels per acre. In fact, We produce successfully about ev- erything that is grown in the temperate zone.
 There have been in the last three years 300,000 apple and peach trees planted in the coun- try tributary to this town and there will be car loads of peaches to ship from Green Forest next season.
 It will cost you from six to eight cents a tree to have an orchard set out in good shape if you hire the work done. Peaches may be planted 120 to 160 to the acre, and apples from AS to 60.
 There are but few farms in this locality upon which there is not one or more springs of pure, soft, cold water. Principal streams are Yocum creek on the north, Long creek on the east and Osage on the south.
 The rainfall is we'll distributed and sufficient for all growing crops. The annual precipitation is about 40 inches.
 We have the most sociable peo- pie to be found anywhere, plain, honest and accommodating. We have no negroes and DON'T WANT ANY.

 We are again in the lumber business up to our eyes, having bought back two of the best mills that we sold, and we have plenty of seasoned lumber to fill all orders at same old price. We made money by selling at the old price and are making it again, hence we will not raise the price.
 We have a planer at the mill and a resaw and lath machine. Any one wanting lumber can buy it from us cheaper than else" where, and always get just what they want and when they want it, Come one, come all and bring the cash. HANBY BROS. Berryville, Ark.
