BLACKTON NOTES.
Blackton. Ark, August. %, 1906

Blackton, Ark, August, %, 1906.
Mr.. Editor:
After long wait. will again write a
few lines from this quiet little berg.
There has been considerable sick
ness around Blackton this Summer.
Some one Of Mr. and Mrs. h. b.
Lewis family have been sick for the
past eight or ten weeks; also Mr.. Pal
mer's folks have been sick lately.
The workmen are busy tearing
down and rebuilding the Blackton
church house. They hope to have It
ready to hold services in by the first
Sunday in September.
The Blackton school will commence
next Monday. Sept. 3rd.
N. D. Evan and family have gone
to Ohio on a visit to Mr.. Evan $
father.
Or. j. c. Miller has been very
busy for the last several weeks. The
doctor has an extended practice and
is very faithful and earnest in his
work.
Crops around Blackton are very
good. especially corn and peas.
Who said Monroe comfy would
vote for license next Monday We
do not believe that there is a single
township in this county that will vote
for license.
There has been several social
events lately but we have not had the
time to keep up with them. so will
close this letter wishing all success.

personal regards and thanks to the

only one copy of the dear old ARGUS

Indian Territory Lsster.
Ada. /. T.. Augzs. 1906

We will begin this letter by saying:
"And still il rain" and has rained ev-
cry day since have/been here. which
is over two weeks. While the rains
are not very heavy, everything is kept
wet and the roads muddy. This is
.y.,d on hay makers and the cotton
crop is growing too much and showing
no signs of opening any. The boil
worm is also putting in gold time.
But we very much hope Mat the
showery days and nights will soon be
over for this season, at least for
awhile.
Ada is fine market for all country
produce. Garden truck OF all kinds
sell for a good price. as well as the
fruit and melons. The country people
do not come to buy without bringing
something to sell to pay for what they
have to buy. The grocery merchants
are supplied with with an The fruit pota
toes-both irish and sweet-and veg
etables of all kinds by the farmers
from the country. We can but notice
the great difference in this respect be-
tween this town and the towns in Mon
roe county. Down there the farmers
come to town with empty wagons and
&c back with their wagon filled with
goods bought on credit; here the
farmers come to town with loaded
wagons and go back empty, with per-
haps little dry goods, sugar and
coffee which they have paid for with
their country produce.
Hon. James L. Lloyd, congressman
from Mo. and Manager of the Wes-
tern National Democratic Congress
sional Committee, says that democrat
ic outlook nationally is encouraging
and everything indicates democratic
success. There is no question but
that the next house Of representatives
will be much more Democratic than
the present one, that is conceded by
the Republicans. The success Of the
next congress will depend somewhat
upon local conditions in certain states.
II these could all be made solid in
favor Of Democracy. there would be
no question but that the next house
would be democratic. Democracy
all over the Union Is much interested
in the candidacy Of Hon. w. j. Bryan
with the masses Of the people, and Mr.
Lloyd says he has met number Of
Republicans who say If Mr.. Bryan is
the next nominee they will support
him. Mr.. Bryan's high character,
great ability and extraordinary fund Of
information on political questions has
caused the people to look with favor
upon him. Many Of those who were
afraid to trust him In former cam
paigns, are new anxious for an oppor-
tunity to support him and ! will say
that no man in the U. S. more nearly
represents, in my Judgment. the popu-
lar demand for clean government. than
does Mr.. Bryan. Mr. Lloyd says. II
am much concerned as to local con-
dition In Oklahoma. realize that, at

There was laid at rest last week In West
Malvern churchyard a venerable lady. Miss
Elizabeth Hutchinson. who must be the
last direct personal link with the poet
Wordsworth, having lived with him. and
also with his widow, her fathers sister. at
Rydal Mount.
She was connected by a close Intimacy
and affection with Wordsworth's favorite
daughter, Dora. or Dorina, who married
Edward Quillinan. Miss Hutchinson had
lived for sixty years at West Malvern, her
brother as the first vicar of the newly con-
stituted parish of st. James, and Words
worth more than once visited his nephew
and niece at the vfcarage.
This aged gentlewoman was not only
an institution of the place. but kind of per-

STUCK IN MONTANA BLIZZARD
A Travelling Salesman's Stage Coach
ing Experience.

From the Anaconda Standard.
Ike Boyer of Helena left yesterday morn
ing for Madison county points, and while
waiting in Butte the night before told
some interesting tales of his experience
while making the territory in southern
Montana which is not yet covered by the
railroad.
1.-The time of my life," he said, was ex-
perienced between Bannack and Argenta /
making the trip by stage and my
driver was one of the old-time Stage driv
ers of the overland road. The only name l
ever knew for him Shorty, ard he
was one of the best that ever pulled the
ribbons over team of horses In Montana.
Shortly after we left Argenta 1t began
showing. but We paid little attention to the
storm, being Wrapped up comfortably
When we topped the hill and stared
across the foothills to connect with the old
Bannack road we ran into the teeth of the
blizzard. The thermometer began drop
ping rapidly, and almost before we knew II
we found ourselves chilling fast. To add
to our trouble the air became so ,illed with
snow that could not see the length or
our sled ahead of us. The storm came
so fast and fierce that the horses refused
to face it, and before we realized it we
were off the road, and the horses were help
lessly fioundering through the snow which
seemed almost bottomless. BY this time
darkness had come and we were off the
trail.
ITO make the matter worse, the horses
sled. and we were hold up fer GOOD. Then
we saw that we were Ill for t for the
i. .. 1ssta a prepared to mako ne oest %
bad bargain. There was little straw in
the bottom Of the sled and we tied the
horses up so that they could eat this. The
driver and myself walked back and forth.
about q rod apart, al night long and IN
this manner managed to keep warm. We
drank up all the samples l lad with me,
smoked several boxes Of sample cigars, and
il seemed as If the night would never come
10 an end
Occasionally I would get uncommoniy
tired and sleepy and would attempt to
doze off, but Shorty would stand Tor
nothing OF that sort He would rouse me
by drastic means, II necessary, to make
me continue my walk to and fro opposite
him Finally, after the lapse of at least a
century the night came to an end and
daylight began showing around tho gulch.
with the approach of day the storm went
down and the air cleared. Shorty tmne-
diately began rustling, and before long
found pole that could be used as sled
tongue, and we toggled up matters end
continued our trip to Bannack. We arrived
there in time for late breakfast, and were
not surprised to learn that the therrp ofneter
had registered Is below throughout the
night.
