ArgeMta Injunction Suit Again.

A motion to dismiss the case of John Spieer, ct al. versus J J:<eG.. Vogel, the city of Argenta ct al, was filed in the chancery court yesterday morning g by James F. Clark as attorney for the defendants. This motion was made in connection with the application for injunction recently denied by Chan cellor Hart and the grounds set up in the motion to dismiss is that the or dinance granting the franchise to Vo- gel ct al for the construction and main tenance of a light and power plant in Argenta had been annulled by an ac- ton of the city council of Argenta last Monday night. The application for an injunction to restrain the construction of the plant was denied by Chancel- Tor Hart but il is understood the mat ter would be appealed 10 the supreme court The motion to dismiss will probably end the suit.

Police Judge
 oney Announces

In fhe announcement columns of the Graphic today aPpedr notice of more than passing interest. It is the announcement of Mir. ". l.. Toney. present police judge of the city, for mayor. True, nearly everybody in the city knew that Judge TOney was a candidate already; bat prominence and record of the man lends interest to the announcement because it lends interest to the race.
 Judge w. l.. Toney is so well known to nearly every citizen of Pine Bluff that it looks like an act of superero- 9ation on the part of the Graphic to attempt anything like an introduction of him to the public, For the past term he has been presiding over the police court of the city, and this posi- tion has thrown him in contact with all classes and kinds. and rendered him a familiar character to nearly everyone.
 It has done more The position of police judge has placed him in a po- sition where the character of the man is shown best of any other position, perhaps, in the entire city govern ment. The result has been that while he has been put daily in the most complicated situations he has iNvali- ably won the confidence and esteem of all those with whom he Was forced 10 come in conraoz. He .s known nni- Tgrsaa.z as &G a=s- conscientious

TO THE PI Blt.

After due consideration We have decided to withdraw oaG popular vot- ing contest owing to the disapprovai of the superintendent of the public schools, which is explained in the fol- lowing letter. We will however con tinue receiving votes until Saturday noon, November 10, at which time the votes will be counted, and the pupil receiving the largest number of votes will receive a five pound box of candy; the pupil receiving the next largest number of votes will receive q three pound box of candy, and the pupil receiving the next largest number of votes will receive a two pound box of candy.
 It is with much regret that we are compelled to do this and take this oc- casion to thank every one of our friends who have manifested any in- terest in our contest.
 Very respectfully your friends,

 By. A. C. Bedell.
 Mir A. c. Bedell, Proprietor of Bedell's Pharamcy.
 Dear Sir: respectful ask you to withdraw the proposition made to the children of the public schools, in regard to giving prizes to the most popular pupil to be chosen by vote of their companions and classmates.
 The canvass as I indicated to you in my words of disapproval Saturday, will interfere with the harmony now existing among the pupils; besides it will serve to direct too much interest and energy from studious channels Your kind attention will oblige, yours respectfully.

Local food dealers fear a scarcity of hay, at any price, and are bringing all possible influence to bear upon shippers ill all sections to secure more cars. Corn also is showing mate rial advance. Usually large quanti- ties of corn are brought into Little Rock every year, but this will be greatly decreased this year from the fact that one of the greatest corn crops on record was raised in Arkan- sas this past summer
 Oats are inferior, and are bringing a good price. All feed is considerably higher, and much of it is laid to car shortage In the case of hay, how ever, it is shown that the car short age alone is not responsible for the marked advance. The hay crop in Arkansas this year is materially smaller than usual. This, together with the failure of the railroads to move hay, has caused the present ad- vance. Prospects are that a further rise will be shown
