Army of the Tennessee Listens to
Interesting Talk from Former
General.

The Army of the Tennessee met at
Mckinley hall, First avenue N and
Western, last evening.
Over two hundred were present. most
of them veterans who followed the
army on its famous campaign. General
E. A. Carr was there and received an
ovation. He gave an illuminating an
alySis of the Vicksburg campaign, in
terspersed with interesting bits of an
ecdote and Renaissance.
General Carr is a West Pointer and
was one of the most seasoned fighters
of the war. He afterward conducted
the Sitting Bull campaign in rs, and
his chief of scouts was Captain Jack
Crawford, who was also on the pro-
gram last night. Captain Jack s poem.

An Historic Drum Used.

E. D. Thompson Of Woodward. Iowa,
used the snare drum in the parade
yesterday which he beat while leading
the Second Iowa into action. 1t is a
precious relic because it was handled
by the war president when Logan was
drumming up recruits in 1861 in
Illinois. The drum is the oid-fashionett
regulation instrument with the same
snarehead that was used in the war.
Mr.. Thompson had the pleasure OF din
ing at Carthage, ILL.,, with Presir ont
Abraham Lincoln, and at that time the
president took up the drum and ex-
amined it closely.

HOW Mr.. Ram Arrived,

John Rapp of Pennsylvania, one Of
the oldest veterans in attendance at
the present encampment, has several
unique exploits to his credit. When
the G. A. R. gathered in Cincinnati he
walked 700 miles to attend. He made
his way to the Philadelphia encamp-
ment on bicycle. MI. Rapp is a
nephew of the founder of the Rappite
sect. He is now 81 years of age, but is
still vigorous of body and young in
spirit.

Amendment Wins Easily.

All the seventy-five counties
 have now reported to the secre-
 tary of state regarding the vote on Amendment. No. 8, known as the educational amendment and the total returns show that the amendment received 93,237 votes with 47,375 votes against it, in- suring it's adoption by hand some majority. The adoption of amendments to the constitution is based on a majority of all votes cast in the state at the general election. The total vote by counties has not been reported to the secretary of state, many of the election commissioners hay. ing failed to make this notation on their returns but enough has been reported to insure the adop- ton of the amendment by at least 10000 votes. The total vote cast for governor, including that of all four of the candidates, is 152, ,827, while the amendment has re- ceived enough votes to insure it's adoption if even 175,000 votes were cast in the state, only 76,414 being required in the vote as cast.

to Liverpool and the shippers
 have been told that they can ex pect the returns of the shipment within fifteen days from the time it leaves this city.
 Each car of the special will bear large placard describing it's contents and telling where it is from, besides an additional card giving the name of the grower and packer. It is the intention of the Association to have photograph of the train taken before itleaves the Spring. field yards. While there have been other shipments of apples to Europe from southwest Missouri, this is the largest single consign- ment that has ever been made Springfield Republican.

Apples for Europe.

Twenty-two cars of strictly Mo-. 1, Ben Davis apples will leave this city this morning, consigned by the Ozark Fruit Growers As sociation to Liverpool, England, in care of George R. Meeker & Company of New York. These apples come from different points in southwest Missouri and northwest Arkansas, the Arkan- sas, points being Johnson, Gar field and Rogers, and the Miss ouri points, Burnham, Cedar Gap, Seymour, Logan, Marionvilie, Republic and Marshfield.
 With the exception of the Marshfield shipment the cars will all start from Springfield in a single train which will be made up here this morning. Yesterday and last night the cars were com ing in from the different points. The Marshfield cosignment will be picked up as the train goes through that place en route to St. Louis.
 The train that is to carry this big shipment of apples is a special. It will go over the Frisco to Chicago, thence over the Wa bash to Buffalo and from there over the Lackawana to New York. The boat carrying the consignment will sail for Liver pool on September 29.
 In these twenty two cars will be 3,696 barrels of the finest Ben i Davis that ever the grandees and royalty of Europe ever use to fill the orifice in their faces, and the fruit will very likely bring the top of the market. It is known that this fruit is in every way superior to apples that have been selling for $500 a barrel in Glas- gow, in the last few days, : as Secretary Atwood of the Ozark Fruit Growers Association has received 9. message to tha1 effect with the Last few days.
 The fruit will be sent within al possible rapidity from Springfield

and five hundred dollars for the
 arrest and conviction of the thieves. Besides this the county
 recorder, A. w. Noel, offered a
 reward of one hundred dollars
 for the recovery of the records. Sheriff Namore and other parties went to Joplin where they secured information which led to the re- covery of the stolen property, and Chas. Evans, an abstractor, W. T. Brown a prominent busi- ness man of Pineville, and Clar- enc Duvall, young man raised there, were placed under arrest charged with the crime. The re- cords were found in a very bad condition in an old well.
 Various theories are advanced as to the object the thieves had in taking the records, the one most credited being that they ex- pected to make a large sum of money by furnishing abstracts from books in the possession of Evans, the abstractor, who is one of the accused parties.-Stone County Oracle.

1Ht HANDOF THE PROG-
 RESS IS CALLED
The Tribune has Raised and Bank Gilt Eoed
 tions to The Amount of $500

The Carroll Progress in it issue of last week contains tn, following offer of a reward o Fifty dollars for the arrest ane conviction of parties guilty O. violation of the election laws ir holding the recent election.
 ''The Carroll Progress here. by offers a reward of S50.0O fo1 the arrest and conviction o1 any party or parties who violated the election laws of the state of Arkansas in the state election held in Carroll county, Sept. 3rd. 1906, this reward to apply to any violation of the law by any party or parties during voting hours whether by election off, ficers or voters, or in making re- turns, or in any way changing or falsifying returns already made, either in transit or in charge of the county election commissioners. Said reward to be available and payable im- mediately on conviction of any of said parties.
 "We take it that no honest man, , who loves his country and desires to see it prosper, will condone or excuse lawlessness of any kind, and certainly would not excuse a fraud in elections which is at fraud against the whole people,"
 ''It has developed that some bold and fragrant violations of the law occurred in holding the recent state election and also by some party or parties in falsifying the returns after they were made. To the end that the guilty parties may be brought to justice, the Progress is willing to head the list with a reward of S50.00 for the punishment of any and all violations of the election law and would suggest to all who love and respect law and order that they join in and make this reward large enough to cause officers to put extra exertion into their eff forts to arrest and bring to justice the guilty party or parties. We would further suggest that this reward when raised to S500.00 or $1,OO0.00 be placed in the Carroll County Bank and made payable to the party or parties securing a conviction"
 ''It is alright and easy enough to denounce violations of the election law in general terms, but it is high time we catch and make examples of few violators and to that end we have prepared this reward in shape for signing. Who will be the first ten or twenty men to sign same?"
 THE TRIBUNE has no money to spend for the prosecution of per- sons who are guilty of technical and unintentional violations of the law in holding the election but we are ready to go the limit h raising a fund for the purpose ot securing the conviction of per- so' who are guilty of fraudu- le ''ly tampering with election re- turrs in order to thwart the will ct she people of Carroll county ;;ss, believing that Brother Crow IS sincere in his effort to raise a reward for the prosecution of violaters of the election law, we believe he would consent to have tho wording of the offer SC modified as to have the reward apply only to offenses that would Justify the offer of money for their conviction. Without re- lecting in the least upon his in. tention in the matter we desire tc express the opinion that an offel of a reward worded as the ont

 sioners at Berryville and falsified

 laws in the recent election in Carroll counly that would con . stitute felony"
 THE TRIBUNE and it's friends subscribe $500 dollars to the above reward. The subscription list is absolutely gilt edged and has been placed in the Bank of Green Forest as will be seen from the certificate of the cashier be- low. We trust the Progress will cover the amount and if the Progress and THE TRIBUNE can raise the amount to S600 it will be easy to get the other S4G0 making a reward of S1, ,OOO. We will take upon ourselves the duty of raising our subscription list to $500 if the Progress will do the same thing and this will make the amount S1, ,00O. Then if the Progress wants to go after those guilty of less serious offenses, a S misdemeanors, etc we are ready to raise another subscription to be used for that purpose. We think all willful violators of the election law should be hunted out and prosecuted and we are willing to lend every assistance possible to that end.
The Green Forest tribune., 1906-10-06

copied from his paper would never result in the conviction of the ballot box thieves for the fol- . towing n. reasons: He says "The
 Carroll Progress hereby offers a
 reward of $50 for the arrest and
 conviction of any party or parties
 who violated the election laws of the state of Arkansas in the
 state election held in Carroll
 county Sept. 3, 1906, this reward
 to apply to any violation of the
 law by any party or parties dur
 Ing voting hours whether bv
 election officers and voters, or in
 making returns or in any way changing or falsifying returns already made, either in transit or in charge of the county election commissioners" Now, The Progress suggests that this re- ward be raised to $500 or S1, ,OOO. The reward as offered by the Progress would be earned upon the conviction of any person guilty of the most frivolous and
 technical violation of the law the same as it would upon the con- viction of the thieves who stole the returns from the box and changed
 he tally sheets after they had been placed in the custody of the com missioners. It would be much more easy to find and convict the party guilty of a misdemeanor than the one guilty of a felony where the punishment is a pen- itentiary sentence and conse- quently conviction for only such slight offenses would be sought. To use a homely comparison, why should any man go into the jungles of Africa and seek tigers skin for the purpose of winning large sum of money, if he was offered the same amount to produce the carcass of com mon Arkansas Molly Cotton Tail? The election law for instance re- quires the receiving judge to call out in an audible voice the name of each elector from whom he recieves a ballot and to place the ballot in the box in the pres ence of the elector. If judge should fail to do this he would be guilty of violation of the law although the ballot might be placed in the box and properly recorded, yet Brother Crow of fers just as great a reward for his conviction as he does for the conviction of the thief who steals into the court house at the dead hours of midnight and takes the poll books from their place of deposit and erases votes from one candidate and adds them to another. Under 8 reward word ed in this way an interruptions election officer could afford to allow himself to be convicted of a misdemeanor for whicn the punishment is only a small fine l if he were promised a division of the S1 ,000 reward, recovered for his conviction. In fact a reward worded in this way fur nishes absolute security to the
 ballot box thief but subjects to prosecution and conviction the person who is guilty of some small misdemeanor which can easily be proved.
 l Now we believe in going
 straight to the point. Let's make
 it short and sweet. Let it be stripped of 8 lot of verbage that
 means everything apparently but
 nothing in reality and let it read
 about like this: "A reward oi one thousand dollars is hereby offered for the arrest and convic- ton of the party or parties who

of many Jack O. lanterns shed their
beams on the gorgeous gowns of
graceful maids and Oh .rming mat

the gathering. A nice midnight
supper was served at the hotel. The
tables were beautifully decorated
with flowers and ferns and here, as
in the hall, Jack O. lanterns played a
conspicuous part.
