RAILROADS FIGHT INNOCENT LAW
Arrangements Being Made to Institute Suit in The Fed
 eral Court

The executive officers of the Missouri and Arkansas railroads held conference in St. Louis Thursday of last week to adopt some concerted action with refer ence to the enforcement of the cent passenger rate legislation adopted recently in the two States named. Among the lines repre- sented were the Missouri Pacific, the Iron Mountain, the Rock Island, the Frisco and the Cotton Belt.
 The conclusion was reached that on the ground of con6scation the railroads affected must appeal to the courts, and resolution was adopted directing the attorneys to get together and devise the best means of instituting legal proceed ings with the view of restraing the operation of the new laws. The attorneys were authorized to adopt the best course without further conference on the part of the ex- ecutive officers.
 The litigation will probably take the form of a suit in the Federal Court to restrain the enforcement of the new law. The ? cent rate goes into effect in Arkansas on April 9th.

QUARTERLY CONFERENCE

The second quarterly conference for the Sulphur Rock Circuit will be held at Mount Herman, April 21 and 22. The official members will take notice that this will be Sunday and Monday. There be ing Is pastoral charges in this dis trict, the presiding elder cannot possibly give each one a Saturday and Sunday. And this is the reason our quarterly meeting comes on Sunday and Monday. We are expected to take our share in the week a. day meetings. And if any should complain about 1t, the remedy is with the members of our church. Give the presiding elder 13 pastoral charges, and he can then give each one full Sat day and Sunday meeting. This can be done and will be done when the support is adequate. So you see, brethren where the remedy lies. The presiding elder will preach at Mount Herman on Sun day night the 21st, then hold the business session at 9 a. m. on the 22nd and preach again at IL. Brother come, don't let a matter keep you away, that if you will begin to arrange for today, will not likely get in your way. But if you do not plan to go to this Monday morning service, you are not likely to be there. The fnan- cial condition of this charge calls for your active service and for your presence at the quarterly meeting. Come, and come pray, ing the blessing of God on your pastors, both presiding elder and pastor and each other and our God has promised his blessing on such service. Your Servant,

A TRIP TO TEXAS

To The Newark Journal:
 On March 14th as our train was moving out of Newark l waved 8 farewell to my friends, as 1 had a very severe case of the Lone Star fever and believed the only remedy was to go to Texas. Our train did not make connection at Texarkana so we left there at day light Friday morning, viewing the entire route to Fort Worth. Leaving TexarEana, Atlanta is the first good town. At Jefferson the oaks were green with foliage. Near Mills Point we came to a prairie which extended to our destination. (And I can see no atimoer yet) Dallas and Fort Worth are large cities. We stayed in Fort Worth about three hours. Near Rajah we saw the first ranch of white faced cattle and prarie dogs. The next interesting sight was Red river. It appeared to be about one half mile across with no water except very small streams intersecting each other and having a very high bank on the north and extending by gradual slope to the south. After travelling along it's banks for few miles we crossed, it being perfectly dry having tip bottom. But 1t is sometimes a great river.
 But l must hurry on to Mem phis, our jouneys end. We arrived here about 9:3O the 16th. This is a nice town of more than 1900 people and has Baptist, Metho- dist and Presbyterian church, each having a station preacher and sabbath school. This Is rapidly growing town. 1t is estimated that fifty dwellings have been built in the last three months. \ pecu liarity about transplanting trees here is, they do not grow very high peach trees only about ten feet
 My Texas fever is about cool guess it will be an Arkansas attack next. Don't forget my Journal Mir. Editor for away out here where l roam 1 love to read the news from home.

GOV. LITTLE'S CONDITION

Corpus Christi, March 3O.- Travel has been suggested to Gov ernofEittle by his physicians as soon as he is sufficiently strong to stand a trip, and it has been de- cided that the governor and party will act on this advice of the physi- clans. The itinerary for this trip has not been settled, but if the weather continues warm 1t Is pro- bable the governor will visit the lake cities of the north.
 Governor Little was forced to remain indoors today because of the inclemency of the weather, a light rain having prev vail Q d throughout the day. His condi- tion is reported as improving daily.
 No plans have been made as to the return of Governor Little to Little Rock, as his physicians posi- lively decline to permit him to re- turn to the cares of state for at least one month.

KILLED BY MAIL TRAIN

Carlisle, March 3O.-CIarence Yancy, a deputy sheriff living near Tomberlin, was instantly killed here at l1:45 this morning within 50 yards of the depot, by being struck by the Rock Islands vest bound mail train from Memphis.
 Yancy crossed a track between two cars and just as he stepped on the main line he was struck by the train. He was thrown about about five feet from the track and when he was picked up 1t was found that his neck was broken and life was extinct.
 There is a lot of difference be- tween lip service and heart service.

TRIBUTE TO HON. W. S.WRIGHT

Will Wriht is dead. Never again will we hear his musical and kindly voice or behold his classic features. Never again will we be the recipient of his gentle raillery, nor hear his voice in be- half of the people whom he loved so well. When the news of his death, so unexpected to us all was received here, there was the most universal and sincere expressions of sorrow among all those who had known him. He was widely known over the state, and none knew him but to love him, and none named him but to praise. l have been intimately acquainted with him for more than twenty years, and with utter disregard of the maxim, to say nothing but good of the dead, but in strict truth, 1 never knew a man with finer sensibilities or a higher sense of honor. In all my association with him, 1 never heard him make comment derog- atory to any woman or girl, and while he would criticise men and measures, he was as free from malice and hate, and as pure and chaste in thought, as any woman in the State of Arkansas. Abso- lutely incorruptible as a citizen and legislator, the calcium light if turned upon his professional career, would only bring the clearer to view his unimpeachable integrity. Possessed and endowed by nature with a mind and in- tellect of the very highest order be could reach heights and grasp the most intricate legal problems that were capable of human inter- pretation, and in this respect was unquestionably the ablest lawyer of his age in the State.
 But beyond and overshadowing Hhis magnificent intellect was his unsullied honor and his unselfish devotion to his friends, and being one of vast number A. of those whom he loved, 1 say to the others that you never had nor never lost a truer, better friend. He did not know the meaning of the word in- gratitude, nor did he ever fail to respond to a call for sympathy or aid. No sacrifice was too great for him to make, and the people of the grand old county where he was born and lived never had better champion nor a more elo- quent advocate. The writer be- lieves with the sentiment express ed by the great senator from Ken lucky in his oration at the tomb of Governor Cobel of that state, that ''earth never pillowed on her bosom knightlier spirit, nor heaven opened wide her portals to receive a kindlier soul,' than when Will Wright's gentle spirit winged it's way from earth to heaven and his mortal body was laid beneath the sod.
 The bridegroom may forget his bride
 of yes'tern,
 The king may forget the crown upon
 his head an hour has been.
 The mother may forget the babe upon
 her knee,
 But l will remember thee my friend And all that thou hast been to me-"
