The Teague, Texas, papers are
 rather severe in their criticisms of the Pine Bluff Commercial, which re-
 gently printed story to the effect
 that Teague was without water and that more than eighty cases of ty- phoid fever were under treatment there. The story, according to the Teague papers, seems to have had no foundation whatever. The Teague pa pers used several colmuns recently in denouncing the Commercials state ments. They claim that the story was printed by the Commercial to in- iure Teague. to which place many Pine Bluff railroad men have moved in the past several months.

BUSTER BROWN; GAME IS D[A!g City Council Went After Cigar Stores Latest
 Amusement in the Way
 of Cards-Chief Put Wise HE DID NOT KNOW Appraisers Named For East Second
 Avenue Paving District-ittor-
 ney's Plea For Shade Trees in
 Lakeside.
HE DID NOT KNOW


Inc Clty council put Cflmp Ill the Buster Brown" card game last night and today all Buster Brown games in various downtown cigar stores were ordered closed and they were closed. Chief of Police A. J. Stewart issued the orders and he says that he knew nothing whatever of the games, until informed of them by the City Fathers last night. Alderman c. F. Dunnington filed the complaint, but when pushed by Alderman Meyer for a statement, giving the names of the places where the Buster Brown" games were on, he declined to do so, saying that the Chief of Police could games, but told enough about them He gave no reasons for his failure to tell the Council of the location of the games, but told enoukh about them to assure all present that he knew well of their location
 One of these games, and perhaps the most popular and liberally pa tronized one, furnished amusement for the patrons of Rosenberg's. 9th CTS are known to have been in opera ton at the Hotel Jefferson cigar stand and in almost every saloon in the city, these games have been very popular here in the past several weeks
 The Buster Brown deck of cards
 is similar in many respects to poker deck. Pictures of Buster Brown, his dog, Tige, and placards of his vari- ous funny sayings are used on them instead of hearts, diamonds, spades and clubs. The games have been very popular since they were intro duced here.
 The City Council session last night was not a lengthy one, but much inn portant business was disposed of. Alderman Clement was the only mem Der absent. He has been in New Mexico for esveral weeks, but will leave tomorrow for Pine Bluff.
 An ordinance was passed last night creating an improvement district on Martin avenue, between State and Olive streets. This district will in clude one more block on what was formerly known as Twelfth avenue, between Main and State streets, and had to be created again to pave it with vitrfied brick instead of asphalt
 An ordinance was also adopted creating sidewalk and curbng dis trict to take the place of the former sidewalk district there. J. w. Craw- ford, representing the property own CTS in that district, addressed the Council in behalf of the shade trees, which may be cut away to make room for the proposed walks. The matter was referred to a committee with a view of preserving the trees.
 A resolution was adopted appoint ing J. F. Simmons, J. B. Talbot and E. B. Harvey appraisers of the East Second avenue paving district Vari- ous reports of the city officials and others were received and filed and the regular monthly accounts allowed.

DISCONTINUED REPUBLI0ANs.

The Democrats claim that the Republic
can tariff plumbers the people to enrich the
protected monopolists, and the Republicans
declare the high tariff rates foster industry
ana protect labor. The Democratic claim
Is substantiated by the fact Of high prices
that everyone has to pay for trust products
and that incomes have not generally kent
pace with the increased cost OF living. These
facts, which many know are true by their
own experience, disprove the Republican
contention. But the further fact that intel
ligent Republican editors are admitting that
the present high tariff schedules are ipiuri-
ous TO many industries and have 30 increas.
ed the cost OF living that those with limited
incomes are suffering instead of obtaining
their share OF prosperity adds greater weight
to the Democratic claim.
A late convert to tariff revision ia the
Balm AmoI, Republican paper in good
standing in the State Of Maine, which in an
editorial entitled 1.-THE Tariff Injuries Maine"
declares that: "Maine without question ia
suffering great deal from the high tariff
schedules, and her influence In the Repub.
iican councils ought to be exerted in favor
OF revision. Unless the party grants revis-
ion this tariff issue is extremely likely TO
complete the work of purely State questions
and throw Maine into the Democratic COL
umn." The Anca further declares that
the Maine vote in the electoral college and
In Congress fare In greater danger now than
they have been since the civil war;"
AS the next Congress will be controlled
by the standpatters and therefore no tariff
revision bill will be allowed to be consid-
cred, and the next Republican National
Convention will undoubtedly declare for
protection, these Republicans in Maine and
elsewhere who desire tariff revision can only
secure It by voting the Democratic ticket.
