HALF A MILLION SHY.
Is it any Wonder Times are Not so Brisk in Monroe
 County?


 There has been considerable con- laint throughout this section about iull times during the past few months and of course there is cause for it. The recent census bulletin issued by he United States Government shows hat the cotton production in Monroe County for the year 1905 was lO,028 bales or hearty half less than fl was for the proceeding year. 1904. This means shrinkage of nearly half million dollars in itself and it is not to oe wondered at, that the loss of a half million dollars from the pockets of our people would cause little depression. But that is not the ONLY reason for ,he depreSSion; the timber interests have been "bottled up all Spring and Summer by the incessant rains which rave prevented the moving of any timber from~thc woods. None of the mills are factories have been able to run during the year and naturally enough this too has curtailed the amount of cash in circulation. These conditions have not been confined te Brinklcy by any means for there are scores of other towns around here tha have faired far worse than Brinkley If this doesn't strike you as altogether correct, just ask the travelling mer and they will tell you that these de pressed conditions are existing 1T every town in their territory and thel will tell you too that Brinkley is in 2 far better condition condition than the genera average of towns. BETTER TIMES AHEAD.
