The Brinkley argus., 1906-06-22
Cosby Column.

Said a prominent travelling man who lives in Brinkley "there is but one reason why Brinkley does not have 4Oor 50 more travelling men make their home and headquarters here than now do SO. and that one reason is that there are no residences for them to occupy. If the property owners could but understand that few nice cottages put up would bring hundreds of dollars to Brinkley each month, believe they would get to- gether and agree to put up these homes. The travelling people are good spenders and the Brinkley mer- chants would get the benefit. The town can't grow because there are no houses for rent and but little if any desirable lots for sale. There is not another point in Eastern Arkansas that appeals so much to. the interest of the travelling man as Brinkley and some attention should be paid to caring for them.

WANTS INDIAN SQUAW.
Man Walks All the Way from Arkan-
sas to Marry an Indian.

Muskogee, |. T., April 4.-This
morning a man about thirty years of
age, who says his name is Dan Main,
md that he is from Benton county,
Arkansas, walked into the olice of
Commissioner Hoyt with what world
ly possessions he calls his own tied
up in a pillow case. He told the Judge
ne had come all the way from Ar
kansas to get a Greek woman and
that he was told that the commission
er was the proper person to make ap-
plication to. He refused to take a
Cherokee, because they did not have
so much land as the Creeks, and also
q Seminole, because their land was
not as good as that Of the Creeks. He
admitted that he had been in Benton
county poor house, and that he was
from Arkansas. The judge told him
that he knew the latter statement was
true as soon as he saw him, and |
sent him over to the Dawes
Commission TO inquire for the matri- |
ncnial bureau of the government.

Commission to Meet
The state railroad COMMISSION viii hold
its first meeting since the recent primary
election on next Wednesday, September
u. In view of the fact that the state
convention which met in Macon yesterday
and nominated Hoke Smith for governor.
has called on all the members of the
present railroad commission to resign, and
make way for others who are in line
with Hoke Smiths reforms. there is no
little interest to know just what the COM
mission may have to say about 1t. So
Tar as can now be ascertained, the railroad
commissioners will pay no attention what
ever to the resolution of the state con-
vention. They have declined to discuss
the action and will probably let it pass
by unnoticed. There is no one who thinks
that they have any idea of resigning,

commissioners until the expiration OF
