LINCOLN CIRCUIT
 COURT CHANGE
Said to Be Proposed by Certain Offi- cials From Warmer to Star City Property Owners Want
 to Be in Jefferson.

In letter received by Secretary J. l.. Caldwell of the Pine Bluff Board of Trade from a property owner in Lincoln county, it is re- ported that movement is on foot to have the Lincoln circuit court moved from Warner to Star City. In the event this is done the writer asks that local citizens interest themselves to secure the annexation of Kimbrough, Choctaw and Au- burn townships to Jefferson county and to urge state legislation to that end. Senator H. K. Toney will be given a petition urging the passage of a bill authorizing the change in county lines.

effect that he had bought up his election as United States senator. That all who knew the Texas leg lslature knew that it was not nur- ehasable and this effort of his polit- ical enemies to insult him and the members of the Texas legislature With their falsehoods, while it caus- ed him annoyance, was of no consc- quence, when considered as re- hectlon upon the personnel of the Texas legislature. He branded as Vlclously false all such charges of corruption upon his part or that of the Texas legislature. He said that his enemies were stopping at noth- ing to attempt to blacken his char acter and reeited to the committee that a small North Texas paper had published a statement to the effect that the bar in the Driskill hotel was decorated with big banner which said that all the friends Of Bailey could get their whisky and all they wanted for nothing, fur ther that Bailey had employed fif- teen bartenders to wait on his friends, and kept that number on watch all the time.
 Senator Bailey said that he mere- ly cited this one case to the com mittee to illustrate to what desper- ate and outrageous ends his ene- mics were going to attempt to blacken his character

FREE FERRY
 MATTER DROPPED
Property Owners on Walker Place Objected to Establishment of Ferry Landinig and New
 WaYOn Roads.

Wagon Roads.
 Because property owners object ed to the establishment of a wagon road through their property on the opposT,s side of the Arkansas river from this place, on what is known as the Walker place, the proposition to operate free ferry for Pine Bluff was killed at meeting he'd at the office of County Judge Gould yesterday to discuss the proposition.
 The meeting was not largely at. tended, but those who were present manifested no little interest in the proposed free ferry system and an interesting discussion followed A proposition was submitted by w. T. McFadden of this county, in which he agreed to operate a free ferry from the Walker place, across the Arkansas river to this city, for $2,- 900 annually. F. H. Walker and c. H. Winifiired objected to the es- tablishment of the ferry landing on their property, however, because they stated that it would necessitatc a new wagon road in times of nigh water, and that they would not per init wagons to be driven through their plantations. It would destroy their crops, they said. The matter was dropped temporarily.

RANGERS ARE
 FACING RUIN

Ottowa, Feb. 22-eports from Sas- CTS are in an awful plight owing to
 the extremely severe weather and the scarcity of food for their cattle It is calculated that eighty per cent of the cattle will be lost. Cattle are lying dead within the view of the railroad trains passing through the country and horses are also suffering severely. It is feared that the heavy losses of stock this year will con- plete the rout of the ranchers and that hundreds of them will go to the wall in the spring unless the government comes to their aid.
