WORK OF GREAT CONVENTION
Fifteen Hundred Delegates at
 New Orleans.
Secretary M. F. Dickinson Talks of Nation al Union Meeting Held Last
 Week.

Returning last night from New Orleans, Secretary M. F. Dickin- son is enthusiastic over the work done by the national Farmers Un- ion convention in that city last week. About 1900 delegates from the various cotton-growing states were present. Plans for systema- tizing and centralizing the market ing of cotton were worked out at the meeting, which MT. Dickinson thinks will be of great benefit to the producers of the south.
 "The plan simply carries on fur ther and gives a head to the ware house system, said MT. Dickinson this morning. We already have the local and county warehouses and in most states a state business department for the holding and marketing of cotton. If the plan adopted at New Orleans is carried out, we shall then have great central holding and marketing sta ton for all the cotton states. The business interests of New Orleans have agreed to finance the propo- sition and there seems no reason ] why it should not be carried out, although of course some opposition may be expected. '
 The most important resolution adopted at the meeting was the fol- lowing;
 Whereas, The Farmers Union, in convention assembled, realize that New Orleans is most favorably located by reason of splendid rail and water way transportation, port facilities, nearness to foreign mark. ct s and proximity to the Panama Canal, for the establishment of a great public warehouse for the stol- age and handling of cotton cheap ly and efficiently; and
 Whereas, the financial and con- mercial interests of New Orleans have assured us of every possible assistance in this connection; be it
 Resolved, That the Farmers Union endorse the plan to enlarge the New Orleans cotton market ill an effort to Carry great part of the surplus supply of each crop at home and for the account of home owners instead of in European warehouses for the account of for eign owners, it being clearly evi- dent that cotton is worth more when marketed as the trade de- mands than when sold when there is no mill demand"

RAISED
 FOR COLLEGES

At the Baptist convention at Fay etteville Saturday afternoon, S25,- 900 was raised to pay the debt of Ouachita and Central colleges, S5, 900 being contributed by Con- way donors. Rev. J. J. Hurt ot this city presided over the educa- tional meeting which was held Saturday and much enthusiasm was manifested in the removal of the burdensome debts from the two institutions.
 Rev. R. G. Bowers has resigned his state mission work to accept the position as financial agent for Ouachita and Central another fact over which the friends of the in- stitutions are jubilant. It is now thought that the additional wing to Central College can be built at an early date, and the room is need ed by the school.

MUCH COTTON
 AT LITTLE ROCK

Little Rock, Nov. I6.-Never before in the history of Little Rock has the congestion of cotton been so great at this point. There are now over 30, 900 bales of cotton in Little Rock and Argenta, and thousands of additional bales will roll in during the coming week. Acres of ground are covered with cotton in Argenta, which is wait ing for a turn in the congresses there, before it can be shipped away. There is not shed room enough to protect the cotton, and streets and vacant lots are utilized in storing it, and there is no fire protection at all. All storage houses in this city are filled, and every evening wagon after wagon, loaded with from four to eight bales, come in from the near by plantations. This is a mere drib- ble, though, to the receipts by rail. The congresses are running three shifts daily and working A hours day. Word has been received here that considerable cotton is to be shipped up from Helena to be compressed here, as the presses there cannot handle the cotton al- ready on hand.

CARNIVAL PLAYS
 IN HARD LUCK

As closing feature of week of financial losses here, Manager Naif Corey of the Modern Carnival Co. was served Saturday night with an attachment issued at the instance of the brass band accom- panying the show for an alleged debt of $8o. Corey denied this debt and made cross bond to re- tain his property, but was put to considerable trouble in raising money to defray a few other ac- counts made in the city while here, He succeeded in getting every thing squared up this morning, however, and expects to leave to- night for points west of here.
 According to his story Corey has been having a series of hard luck since coming into the state. A car belonging to his show was de- stroyed by fire at Pine Bluff, caus- ing him a loss of about $2ooo. He says he did a fairly good business in Argenta week before last, but the unfavorable weather here caus ed him to lose everything he had saved.

EDITORIAL

AN ARKANSAS LITERARY EFFORT.
 The Log Cabin Democrat ac- knowledges with much pleasure the receipt of copy of Pictures and Poems of Arkansas" which has just been issued by o. C. Lud- wig and Mrs. Bernie Babcock. The book is one of the most beautiful volumes ever issued from an Ark ansas press, but its form and ap- pearance are its least valuable fea- lures, as its contents contains some really fine poems, perusual of which will be a revelation to many who are accustomed to believe that our state possesses no literary tai ent. Besides the compiler and author of several of the poems, MT. Ludwig, there are several other writers who are former Conway people, notably Rev. A. C. Miller ano M. F.. Dunaway.
 We very we'll remember Mir. Ludwig's first effort along this line, which was a thin volume en- titled Arkansas Poems" issued about twelve years ago. It was laboriously printed by "foot power" on job press in this office, and it's appearance was homely indeed when compared with the handsome book just issued, but it's little red bordered pages brought many smile of satisfaction and pride from the publisher and printers who got it out.
 The 4ew volume is work of art and no patriotic Arkansan should be without copy in his home. The price is SI. 50 per copy.

PATTERSON MAKES A HIT
First Number of Hendrix Lyceum Course a
 Decided Success.

If every number of the Hendrix College lyceum course pleases the audience as we'll as the Featherston entertainment Friday night, there is no question that the course will be the greatest success of any pre- . vious year. MT. Featherston made decided hit, both in his musical numbers and his imperson- ations. Every feature of the pro. gram elicited applause, but his inn personation of young lady just returned from a musical seminary was probably most enjoyed by his hearers.
