On1V Five Years Old
The Faulkner
County Bank

Was organized little over five years ago, and dur
ing this time it has accumulated NET UNDIVID-
ED PROFITS amounting to SIS 900. .oO-this
with its CAPITAL of $50, 900 90 makes it. in this
respect the LARGEST of any Bank in Faulkner
County.
We are proud of the success of our Bank, and
we are very thankful for the confidence the people
have shown in us by their liberal patronage.
Owing to the few years that our Bank has
been in business, and policy of confning most
of our loans to home people, it has not the
statewide reputation that some older banks claim
to have. We not however, solicitous for such
reputation, but we are VERY ANXIOUS to be
known by every man, woman and child in Faulk-
ner County, and have them customers.
AS public institution feel great interest
in the development of our town and county-well-
knowing that our continued success depends large
ly upon the prosperity of all the people through
out our county.

entrance requirements are made,
but at this school, farmers boys
and girls of however little literary
training are accepted as students
and taught both the practice and
science of farming and farm life.
Institutions like these, it seems to
me, are more nearly what we need
in Arkansas, rather than those in
which the requirements for ad-
mission are such as to preclude
many from attending.

Asked as to his opinion on the

said: II visited the national

found those in charge confident of
success. While my opportunity

people in the states I visited was
limited, l believe Mr.. Bryan will

M|LL|CAN HELD
WITHOUT BAIL
NO PRELIMINARY TRIAL HAD
Committed to Jail by Acting
Coroner.
Testimony of Son of Joe c. Herring and
Verdict of Coroner's Jury Filed
with Clerk Today.

FROM THURSDAYS DAILY.


The expected preliminary hearing
of L. E. Milligan, who is charged
with the killing of Joe c. Herring
at Martinville October 2, failed to
be held yesterday. Sheriff Brady
took Milligan to Martinville, where
the hearing was to be had before
Justice of the Peace f. l.. Smith,
but Deputy Prosecuting Attorney
1. M. Campbell filed motion with
the court stating that Milligan had
been held by the verdict of the
coroner's jury and was therefore
not entitled to preliminary hear
ing. This motion was not resisted
by the attorneys for the defendant,
Col. c.. w. Bruce aud R. G.. Bruce,
and was granted by the court, after
which a commitment as acting cor
oner was issued and Milligan was
returned to Jail last night. Prose-
cutting Attorney-elect Geo. w.
Clark also represented the state in
the proceedings yesterday.
The only manner in which Milli-
gan can be admitted to bail new is
through habeas corpus proceed
ings, and his attorneys give no in
timation as to what will be their
next move in the case.
The evidence of Charlie Herring,
who was the only witness whose
testimony was committed to writ

Will NOT CALL
STATE MEETING
UNION PRESIDENT SEES NO USE
In Special Session of Farmers
Organization.
Believes Night-Riding Should Be Prevent
ed by the Public Through Lawful
Methods.

In a letter published in this
weeks Arkansas Union Tribune,
President John Bowers OF Lonoke c
states that he sees no use in call
ing a special session of the state
union for the purpose of suppress
ing night-riding, saying that it is
doubtless the work of boys or en-
emies of the union and is Of no i'm
portance The letter of Pres.
Bowers follows:
Having seen recently from time
to time in the columns of the lead
ing papers, reports of night riders
posting notices and warning gin
ners to cease ginning cotton and
merchants to restrain from buying
cotton until prices advanced, at
different times and places, in this
great state of Arkansas. This is
looked upon by some skeptics to
mean something to follow if the
requests are not obeyed. There is
no doubt but these fellows are
some youthful boys or enemies to
the farmers union, upon whom the
suspicion is thrust, because they
are trying to hold cotton for the
minimum price. Young boys who
would commit such acts, are to start
something new in their neighbor-
hood to gain notorlety and have the
people guessing what will be next.
1t is strange indeed some people
intimate that its the Farmers Union
as though they are lawless charact-
ers and responsible for all the
crime emanating from Might Rid
ing, White Cappine" and every
other source. This institution Is
based upon the principles of equi-
ty, Justice and the Golden Rule.
To demand a rigid enforcement of
law for suppression of vice and i'm
morality. The Farmers Union as
a body denounces all such conduct
as "Night-Riding' and are just as
willing and ready to do all in their
power to check and prevent all
such lawless conduct as any other
class of good citizens. 1t is true
that little streams make big streams
by constant pouring in and it IS
Just as true that the continual agi-
tat ion of "Night-R iding" will de-
velop anarchism. Therefore the
need of every good citizen in the
locality where these occurances
happen to go quietly into an in
vestigation and by whatever means
most lawful check it and stop this
agitation for the good of our COM
monwealth in this great state.
1t has been suggested, and one
petition from Green County Union,
to have the State Union called to-
gether il extra session to take
some action in this matter. We
cannot see where such a course
would have any good results toward
stopping this agitation, for all true
Union men are doing and will
continue to do whatever they
can to stop this excite
ment of "night-riding" that seems
to be growing and creating SO
much uneasiness among all classes
of our people. If such exist it is
a matter for the public to deal with
it in the best possible manner un-
der the laws of our state, as other
crimes are dealt with

SEES AGRICULTURAL SCHOOLS
Gov. Donaghey Inspects Northern
Institutions.
Gains Valuable Data on Tour with Educa-
tors-Believes Bryan will be
Elected.
FROM WEDNESDAYS DAILY.

Returning last night from a brief
visit to the state fair, Gov. Elect
Geo. w. Donaghey was telling his
friends here this morning of his re-
cent trip to visit the agricultural
institutions of some of the nothern
states. Il gained much valuable
information in regard to these
schools" said Mr.. Donaghey, and
the trip was in every way most
pleasant one. accompanied by
DR.. Wallace Buttrick, secretary of
the General Education Board,
Pres. Tillman, Supt. Cook and my
self visited four different institu-
tions. Our first stop was at Madi-
sou, Wisconsin, the location of the
largest university in the union,
with an enrolment Of 47oo
students. This university is sup
ported by the state, which annual
ly appropriates about one and a
half million dollars to its mainten-
ance. An agricultural college is
maintained in connection, headed
by President Russell, one of the
foremost men in the country. So
intimately is the state connected
with this university that when a
man is needed for almost any posi-
ton in the state government, the
university is called upon tc furnish
the man.
Our next stop was at the Uni
versity of Minnesota, where, at St.
Anthony Park, the largest agricul-
tural college in the United States
is conducted. At this place we
were also impressed with the splen-
did results which have been achiev
ed in scientific training of the
farmer.
