Buy Stamps.

Postmaster Griffith desires to
call attention to the practice Of
some patrons of rural delivery Of
placing loose coins in their boxes
each time they desire to dispatch
letters instead of supplying them.
selves with postage in advance of
their needs.
This practice imposes undue
hardship on rural carriers in re
moving loose coins from boxes
and DELAYS them on the service Of
their routes. The postmaster.
therefore. urgently requests hat
patrons Of rura! delivery provide
themselves aud keep on hand a
supply Of stamps consistent with
and 10 advance of their needs. It
is also very desirable that rural
patrons place in their mail boxes
small detachable cups of wood or
tin in which to place coins. when
necessary, in purchasing supplies
of stamps.

 During the course of Tempora- " Chairman Pindall's speech mention of the names of Culber- son of Texas, Johnson of Mime sota, and others were liberally applauded, but mention of the namesof w. J. Bryan and George w. Donaghey brought forth a storm of applause from both floor and gallery.

ty, citizen of Arkansas and a great and true man as follows:
 Whereas, The people of Arkan- sas have learned with profound grief of the sudden death of the Hon James K. Jones; and,
 Whereas, The Democratic par ty in convention assembled feels that it is the duty and privilege to give public expression to the sorrow of the people at the death of this honest and capable public servant.
 James K. Jones was identi- fled with Arkansas from his boy hood and proved his devotion to the cause of the State and the South as a gallant Confederate soldier In time of peace he be- came a leader in the restoration of social order and the restitution of the State to it's former posi- tlon in the Union. In the Gener- al Assembly of Arkansas, in the national House of Representa- lives, and in the United States Senate he served the State with conspicuous ability, integrity and faithfulness. In the national Democratic conventions and con- mittees he won the respect of the whole people as leader.
 The Democracy of Thomas Jefferson was to him a faith like d religion, and he was an apostle in it's promulgation; and those who believe in that faith recog- nize that a pillar has fallen from the temple. Wherefore be it
 Resolved by the Democratic Convention of Arkansas, That great los has been sustained to the people of the State, and that this public token thereof is made in obedience to the universal sor- row of our people in the loss of this great and true man.
