The state normal ought never to be located in large city. The cost of living in such a place is practi- cally twice as great as in a smaller town. The same board that would cost $50 a month in a city can be obtained for SIS in a town like Con- way. To locate the normal in a city, 1t would have to be situated far out in the suburbs in order to secure the twenty acres of land which the law requires. This means an additional 20 cents a day for street car fare to the stu dents who attend. These expenses would preclude many hundreds of the poorer teachers from attending. Again, the vice and temptations of the city are unknown in the small CT town. There are no saloons, brothels or gambling dens in Conway. In short, Conway is away from all of the disadvantages and allurements of city life, yet 1t is so close to the capitol city as to be in close touch and easy access to the heads of the state depart
 ments. The board can make no mistake in locating the normal at Conway. Its advantages of local ity are so great as to make 1t better place for the normal, even though large and wealthy cities might offer many thousands of dollars more in the matter of bonus.

The prospects for a cotton crop in this county are the most gloomy that we have had for several years. The Log Cabin Democrats cor respondents are unit in reporting discouraging conditions. Many of our farmers have planted the third time and still have bad stands. Frost was reported in some local ities in the county last week. The plant has begun to die in many places since the heavy rains of last week have ceased. The only en- couraging sign is the fact that con- ditions are not much worse here than they are throughout the cot ton belt, making short crop al most certain-and a short crop means a high price.

WHY CONWAY NEEDS THE NORMAL

WHY CONWAY NEEDS THE NORMAL.
 In the course of the next month the state normal college will be located in that town in Arkansas which offers to the board the best inducements in the matter of bo- nus, ground for site and general desirability of location.
 In a circular issued a few days ago by the Board of Trade it was stated that the normal will be worth million dollars to Conway. This IS not an exaggeratlon. It will be worth more than a million dollars to the town which secures it, during the first decade of it ex- istence. Hendrix College has al ready been worth a million dollars to Conway, and the state normal will be much larger institution, financially speaking, than Hen drix College is.
 The opportunities for Conway's development as manufacturing center are remote. But situated as we are, with the advantages we already have, our opportunities for becoming the educational center of the state are most favorable.
 Conway needs the normal be- cause 1t will completely establish our claim as "the Athens of Ark ansas. It will double our popu- iation-and the people it will bring to our city will be of the very best class; people who will come here because of our educational advan- tages. It will increase the value of our real estate, build up our va cant residence and business lots and make the matter of the install ation of modern city improvements an easy possibility. It will bring to our town from one-quarter to one-half million dollars a year an income which will not be de- pendent either upon the fckleness of the weather conditions in the production of cotton or the ug- gling of the market in selling it. It will benefit and cause a renewed interest in the educational institu- tions we already have. The mod el school provided for the normal will take care of 100 pupils of our district and give them the benefit, without charge, of the very best and most expert instruction that can be obtained. It will make Conway bigger, brighter, better city, physically, morally and finan- cially.
 Every dollar put in the normal will come back to the donor with big interest. To give to it will be an investment not a donation.

WHY THE NORMAL SHOULD COME TO
 CONWAY.

Conway is centrally located.
 It is one of the most healthful towns in the state.
 It is already a college and school town.
 It is good town morally.
 It has the best graded streets and the best drainage of any town of 1t size in the state.
 It has more miles of concrete and stone sidewalks than any town of 5000 population in the state.
 Waterworks and sewerage will be installed within very short time.
 Its citizens are progressive, liber- al and loyal to the institutions of the town.
 For these and many other req sons the Arkansas state normal ought to be located at Conway.

GALLAGHER MAKES ANSWER.
Denies That He Deserted His Wife for
Younger Woman.

In his reply TO his wife's answer and
Cross-complaint, James j GALLAGHER
denies 1hat he has deserted her for a
younger woman as she alleges but 20
the contrary he declares he has always
provided her with home He also
denies that she has been spending her
strength In caring for his children
and home OF that he has refused to
allow her sufficient help. The al-
legations OF his wife that he Is enam-
ored OF a young woman and has de-
serted his family for her he declares
are false and malicious and are cir
cUlated by Mrs GALLAGHER for the pur-
POSE Of prejudicing his children
against him.
In his complaint for divorce he
charged his wife with cruelty and al
legged that she neglected her home and
children and allowed them 20 become
filthy. He also alleged that she had
falsely accused him Of associatinR with
bad women and had otherwise mis-
treated him They were married 20
years ago and have eight children.
Mrs. GALLAGHER filed an answer and
plant In which she charged
her husband with desertiOn. claiming
that he had abandoned her for n
younger woman. GALLAGHER now de-
nles this assertion. As 20 his property
he alleges that she has given Il as
about double It's real value IN her
answer He claims that he owns pro-
perty valued at $4,000. but that Il
Is covered BY a mortgage OF 10000,
and that he IS now in debt about

PLEA FOR MISSIONS.
Temporal and spiritual Religions De-
Gncd by Bishop NcclCy.

Bishop Medley of Bueuog Ayres s.
A. preached Yesterday morning, in
TIE First Methodist church. when De
made made plea for missions iu

forcuces between temporal and spirit
Ual religions The speaker preached
from the text 1.-THE kingdom OF
heaven ls like unto leavcn. which
woman took. and hid Boz three meas
urcs OF meal till DO was an leavened.
The bishop said iu part:
The cNpr ssiOns the kingdom OF
heaven and the kingdom Of God
are frequently used in the New esta-
meut. They We're common among the
Jews. The old Hebrews believed that
100 matter what might be the external
foam OF political government. that God
should be- the real ruler and that Of
Ecials should carry out the Will OF God.
q hat should be the case today HUI
man governments should exist for the
purpose ~ doing right and seeing
that the divine right ovcrcame hui
man wrong The Jews longed for the
restoration OF their ancient kingdom
as in the time OF David and so they
locked FOR a Messiah who would be a
temporal ruler. Jesus met this desire
and tried 90 turn the thought of the
people 20 a right conception 0f the
Messlanio kingdom. Ira doing so Jesus
declared THAI His Kingdom was not
temporal and material but spiritual.
Before PLATE he said My king
dom As not OF this world Christs
church la this dispensation Is not a pO-
litlcal but a spiritual institution. In
that We have a good test OF a true re-
lgion. False religions are usually ma
terial or political or both Thus Mo-
hammednnism. "a false religion, sought
political power. Thus Romanism, a cor
rupted religion, claims temporal power
and though IL has recently met with
serious checks. nevertheless persists In
lts claim, and II IL had the opportunity
would rule kings emperors and presl-
dents The same test applied 20 other
religions shows that false Felig1onB
seek political power and material gain.
Jesus teaches that the true Christian
church is not political but spiritual. IL
is not of this world worldly. though
"a is in this world. Jesus also taught
that His kingdom was not eternal but
internal. and siad. Behold the kingdom
