"GLORIOUS
 RESULTS"
That's What the Graphic Ad. Is Bring ing the Grand Leader-StOre Crowded With Bargain
 Seekers.

The value of advertising in the Graphic is we'll demonstrated by the large crowds who visited the Grand Leader every day this week. The spe- cial hour sales attract such attention that the salespeople were unable to accommodate the bargain seekers who visited the place in large numbers to- day.
 T. B. McEwen says that "advertis- ing in the Graphic brings glorious re- sults." AS an evidence of this he cited the Graphic representative to the crowded store Hundreds of wo- men were at the counters making purchases and the salespeople were literally rushed to death.''
 T had no idea that an ad could bring such quick results,' said MT. McEwen as he rushed away to answer the call of customer.

 There is not, of course, one word of truth in the entire story, but it is nevertheless not in the least sur prising to those who are at all ac- quainted with the methods of the Hearst papers.
 Those papers have become known by all men as the most interruptions of political filth-mongers.
 Those papers now stand and have for years stood as the buccaneering swashbucklers of American journal ism.
 Those papers are the most typical and conspicuous representatives Of the yellow newspaper class i'll this country illustrative altogether in their characteristics of the impro- prieties, indecencies and unreliabil!- ties of gutter-snipe journalism.

ARKANSAS AS HUMBER STATE.

Arkansas remains among the lu Cber industry The latest report of the government forest service shows that Arkansas stands frs. as producer of red gum and cotton wood anad second in it's cut of yell low pine, hickory, cypress and red oak.
 In total output of all kinds of woods Arkansas stands sixth among the states. This is position of importance that should be fully ap preciated by our citizens. It should be taken advantage of to widely ad- vertise our splendid resources throughout other sections of the Union. A few years ago Arkansas was far down in the list as regards the amount of lumber produced, but today she stands among the first half-dozen states of the country.
 According to the governments report, the lumber cut in Arkansas in the year 1905 was 1,44S,5S9,00O, or about per cent of the total cut of 3O,502,961, 1000 feet. Wash ington was first in the list, with B., 9l7,166,00O feet, Wisconsin second with 2,543.5O3,OO0, Louisiana third, with 2,293,SO9,O00, Minnesota
 
 fourth with 1915, 5,S04,0OO, and Michigan fifth, with 1,719,6S7,00O.
 The report shows that the 466 mills in Arkansas reported a total of 1,44S,5S9, 1000 feet cut during the year. Of this, 1,0S4,263,000 was soft wood and 4O4,326,0O0 feet hard wood.

 has a board of trade possesses com fortable and spacious headquarters, elegantly furnished, where visitors are entertained. The secretary is provided with a rig in many in- stances and visitors are shown over the city. This should be done in Pine Bluff. It leaves a good impress sion with a visitor and serves to advertise the city. It was argued that such a system would ..ecessi- tate the employment of 6 man 10 re- main at headquarters permanently and that the board could not af- ford it. Then MT. Bloom paid his respects to the small annual dues of the members. He suggested that instead of $30 being given annually by wholesale and banking jEstiru- tions they should give S100. For one, as secretary of the Travellers !n- surance company, he wanted to signify his willingness to give s10O each year as membership fee, if the new quarters ware secured. His offer was greeted witt; applause. No town in the state, he said, was as good as Pine Bluff. This cit5''s as- sessed valuation is rearly million do!i:rs ~-.e than St Saith

Taylor, the supervising architect, while in Wash ington, and he stated that Pine Bluff would receive the preference when work on the new buildings was e. gun over the country.
 Judge Elliott Heard.
 Judge John M. Elliott made an interesting talk in which he paid high merited compliment to the of- ficials of the board. He reviewed great work that had been accom- plished in various cities and towns bv boards of trade. He cited Stutt- gart. a town with handful of people" who had done much to build LID their town and surrounding coun- try with a business mems organiza- tion. Many good white immigrants have been brought there through its efforts. Judge Elliott's address was one of the best of the evening and he was interrupted frequently by applause.

Palmer Danalrer Appointed Private Secretary to B. F. YOakum, of the
 Frisco Railroad System.

An interesting note in connection with the visit of B. F. Yoakum to Little Rock was the appointment of Palmer Danaher to be his private sec- retary. Palmer Danaher formerly liv- ed in Pine Bluff and is a brother of M. Danaher, of the local law firm of Austin & Danaher
 As is we'll known, MT. Yoakum is vice president and general manager of the Frisco and chairman of the Board of Directors of the Chicago and Rock Island, and is generally regard ed as the most remarkable railroad builder in the Southwest, if not in the entire country. Thousands of miles of steel rails now thread this section, and especially Texas, due to the influence of this industrial pro- moter.
 Mr. Yoakum and Mir. Danaher hat never met until yesterday, which ever emphasizes the value of this credit able promotion for Mir. Danaher, 1; promotion altogether deserved, how ever. Mir. Danaher has been for eigh years clerk in the office of Benjamin s. Johnson, and at the time of tn
 tender by MT. Yoakum was chic clerk in Mir. Johnson's office
 The tender has been accepted b, Mir. Danaher, and he will leave il about 10 days to join Mir Yoakum ol his return to New York
