THE UNITED STATES SUED
Peculiar Suits Filed in Federal Court at
 Little Rock Yesterday.

Little Rock, Sept. 22.-Two of the most peculiar suits ever filed in a court in this section of the coun- try, were filed this morning by John Bruce Cox, as attorney for the plaintiffs, R. E. Farrell, Will liam B. Farrell, Omar Farrell and Elizabeth Farrell. One suit is against the United States of America, and the other is against F. w. Tucker, collector of revenue for this state. R. E. Farrell is a resident of Little Rock; w. E. Farrell resides in Cleora, La.; and Omar Farrell resides in Hot Springs.
 According to the complaint; William Farrell died intestate in 1901, and Oscar Davis was appoint ed as administrator of the estate five days later, July B, serving in such capacity until his discharge Sept. IS, 1903. The complaint al leges F. w. Tucker, collector of revenues, levied upon the SIoo,- GOO personal property left by Will liam Farrell, tax amounting to $S76.o5 under the act providing means tor the raising of war reve nues, passed June I3, 1898, and repealed effective in 1903.
 The plaintiffs say they paid the tax under protest, as the law did not place tax upon estates when they pass to the administrator, but when it passes to the heirs, and the estate was held up awaiting the settlement of claims until after the special war revenue tax had been repealed, when it was pad to the the heirs. The same facts are stated in the suit against the United States, which is on the personal estate left by Mrs. Eliza beth Farrell, and upon which tax of $9oI S6 was collected. The plaintiffs say the distribution in this case was also made after the act was repealed, and consequently was not subject to the tax, so not only ask for the return of the money, but interest from Feb. ?, IoO3, as we'll.

COUNTY UNION WAREHOUSE
Manager Williams Gives Reasons Why
 Farmers Should Patronize it.

It goes without question that the Farmers Union has proved it. self to be the farmers friend. It has been proved, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that this organ ization has proven the power to control and regulate to very large extent, the price of cotton. Much has already been done even dur ing the brief existence of this or ganization, in raising the price of cotton above the five and six cent mark, and the farmers of Faulkner county have not failed to reap their share ot the benefits.
 The price adopted by the union for holding cotton and storing 1t in the local warehouses is proving a marked success. It is true that many obstacles had to be overcome in working out the details Of this plan, but each years experience but serves to weed out these diff culties, thereby enabling us to handle your custom in a very sat isfactory manner at the lowest pos sible cost to the depositor. The entire cost for storing your cotton this season-including both stor- age fees and insurdnce-will not exceed two dollars and sixty cents (S2.6o) per bale for the entire period of twelve months. The outlook for a splen did season is certainly most encouraging. AL though our entire cotton belt has been very much damaged by the blighting effect of that awful finan- cial panic which has swept our whole country during the past year the price of cotton still holds good, but the panic is now num- bered among the things of the past and 1t is our duty to come close to gether and wage a stronger fight than ever before. Is this not time above all times, tor every loyal member of the Farmers Un- ion of Faulkner county to show his colors and not make the fatal mistake of throwing his cotton ou the market regardless of price, which course will only tend to demoralize and destroy the splen- did work that has thus far been done? If the ruling price is not fair and liberal one it is both your privilege and your duty to de- posit your cotton in your loca- warehouse where it will be hand led by the safest and soundest but mess management. In storing your cotton this season 1t will be
