Hon. Frank w. DeRositt, St.

Hon. Frank w. DeRositt, St. Francis county's able and faith ful representative and friend Tn the Arkansas legislature was at home over Sunday. He has made many friends by his untirlng efforts in behalf of St. Francis county, and has seldom if ever failed when he went after anything. His bill to pay the negro Nathan Williams s S2G0, which the state offered for the rapist Charley Young, who was burned at the stake, and which the governor refused to pay be- cause he was never tried and con- vIcted, has passed both houses and is now up to the Czar of Ar kansas. DeRositts bill to protect landlords and merchants from lri- fling and shiftless contract laborers, is in fair way to become law, though we doubt if it will, because of the short time and large amount of other business the legislature now has before it.

Isn't It about time the dirty town COW should be run iny

A great deal of tun, and some times ridlcule, is made of the local news items occurring in country weeklies, by our neie of the cities. For instance they consider that an item reading something lik e this, "Rube Greengoods has cut his hay or words to that effect are real downright funny, or more properly speaking, ridiculous, ac. eordlng 10 their estimate, and we have often been minded 10 make d $ comparison of these local items with some of the slush which is dished up by the "great big" city dailies in their editorial columns. But we are charitable to q fault, and never had the heart to do SO, and wouldn't now, but for the fol- lowing which occurred in the Ar kansas Gazette of Saturday, which Is the worst We ever saw, and we just simply must open the safety value or burst. The Gazette says,
 TURNING THE STYLUS.
 Turn the stylus often, said the ancIentS.
 The stylus was an instrument used for writing. The blunt end was used for eraslng Presumably writing was improved by frequent erasing-by turning the stylus often.
 IL is said that Judge Stylus T. Rowe of Greenwood, judge of the Twelfth clrcult, may be oandi- date for United States Senator.
 So Arkansas may have chance to turn the Stylus from judge to senator.

WOULD BRING TRADE.

Some of our local sportsmen suS- pest the idea that ii the Montgom- cry Park races at Memphis are discontinued on account of a recent law of the Tennessee legislature, why not move Montgomery Park to Forrest City? That is. tgura- lively speaking,
 Forrest City had fine half-mile track a few years ago, and there was some frst-cIass contests ot speed by some of the best horse- flesh in this country. With gamb- ling devices and fakirs prohibited there could be fine sport, and II properly financed at the beginning, the 30-day meet at Memphis might be transferred here with great deal of profit to business.
 Then a good old time county fair and harness horse race meet could be had in the fall to delight the entire community for miles around, and create a little friendly rivalry.
 Being only an hours run out Of Memphis, which is no longer than 1t sometimes takes to reach Mont gomery Park from Main and Mad ison streets, the entire race-going population of Memphis would probably rather come over here, where the ar, water and morals are pure, than to wait for street cars in the streets of Memphis.
 However, talk wont get the Montgomery race meet. It takes the rocks.

This purchase puts us in debt "up to our neck" as the old saying goes, and we will need help from our friends to keep the notes paid as they mature monthly. We shall be very thankful for any in- crease of patronage, or cash on ae- counts past due.
 We take this opportunity to an nounee that as soon as our present work ot issuing handsome Art Souvenir Supplement to the For rest City Times shall have been successfully completed, we shall take up the matter of issuing daily paper in this city. We shall not expect to make a cent from this daily he first year or more, and will be highly pleased ard gratified if it shall pay its own ex- penses. We have been frequently asked why we do not start daily. The answer is that We have not heretofore had the facilities. We have lately almost been importun. ed by several citizens to start daily. The answer is, we shall do so soon-not, however, before fall
