Comparisons, Though obi
GUS, Are Sometimes
Instructive.

TT He, months of June and
July are generally among
the dullest OF the year in
the advertising field. II is there
fore hopeful sign to the bust
ness public if the advertising col
umns OF the papers at this time
indicate any kind Of an awaken
ing, for there is no better trade
barometer than the newspaper
columns from day to day,
During June, the Deseret
News printed a total OF 2I,8I7
inches advertising in the daily
and 2,465 inches in the semi
weekly, which was a substantial
gain over June, 1907. Every
other paper in the city showed a
loss.
There was an improvement
on all sides, the first week in
July. Last Saturday and Sun
days figures show the following
handsome totals OF advertising
Saturday News .2546 in.
Sunday Tribune !. .2377 in.
Sunday Herald :. ,2248 in.
Sunday Republican, 1879 in,
Saturday Telegram. 1888 in.
The Tribune, Of course, would
have fallen to third place, and
close TO fourth, except for its su
peru array OF city printing which
1t is awarded at its own rates,
without competition, as the price
OF editorial support to the Am
ericanN administration.

BRYAN,s SPEECH.

Il do not think any state was better
represented at Denver than Nebraska,
and for proof of that / can simply
remind you that you were the only
state represented there that secured the
nomination of a candidate for presi-
dent from its own state" ULaughtcI

Mr Bryan continued:
81 am as much pleased with the
platform as ! am with the nomna-
ton for the first place. and l am as
much pleased with the second nomlna
ton as | am with the platform.
II think that this convention leaves
different impression than that given
by the convention in Chicago In that
convention the platform did not present
what the reform element of the party
wanted and when the convention was
over there was a feeling of discourage
ment and disappointment. But the
Democratic party la this convention
has given us a platform that / believe
expresses the deliberate sentiment of
that large and growing reform ole-
ment in this country. (Applause)
Il am satisfied that II is going to
appeal not only to all the Democrats
but to "A great many Republicans. And
John W. Kern as have known MIN
for many years, they will believe as
l do, that he Is in perfect haramony
with the platform and can be trusted
TO carry that platform out to the let

him the responsibility for its enforce

SUITS
TO Be DISMISSED

Little Rock, Ark, Nov. 20
Before the end of the day Prose
cutting Attorney Campbell will en-
ter a dismissal in the circuit court
of the suits for penalties, directed
at the Iron Mountain and Rock
Island railroads, which placed the
Railroad Commission in contempt
of the United States circuit court,
according to the decision of Judge
Jacob Trieber, and other means
will be resorted to by the commits
sion to force the railroads to aban-
don their present excessive freight
rates. 1t is thought that the COM
mission will file in the United
States court, an action which will
make the railroads come forward
and show their present. rates are
not excessive, even though they
are from 100 to 800 per cent higher
than were the rates of the railroads
before the commission was organ
lied. The renewal of the set of
books the state has received in the
Federal court on all propositions
yet fought out there on the rate
question, has only added to the de-
termination of the commission and
its attorneys, to bring out the rail-
roads and make them come to time,
giving the people of the state some
thing reasonable. For two hours
yesterday attorneys for the state,
Roy D. Campbell, Attorney Cen
eral Kirby and Congressman Joe
T. Robinson, talked before Judge
Trieber, while the attorneys for
the railroads, Col. ]. M. Moore
and Tom Buzbee, never made a
suggestion after their case was
stated. In the hearing yesterday
Judge Trieber expressed a high
regard for the commissioners per-
sonally, and also said the commits
sion had done much for the state
and should be maintained, but he
said the railroad, even though it is
a railroad, must have some consid-
Grafton for it's property rights.

ATHLETICS IS
EXPENSIVE
FROM TUESDAYS DAILY.

Coach 7. L. Leonard, while dis
cussing athletics at Hendrix, MADE
some strong remarks on the cost OF
the various sports, saying in part;
Few people realize how much
it costs to run athletics and KICK
on the price because they see no
immediate outlay of money. l
want you fellows to thoroughly
understand the facts of the case.
There was not a single football
game nor a series of baseball
games all last year that paid I'M
mediate expenses, in fact we lost
nearly two hundred dollars on the
University game alone. In ad-
dition to the immediate expenses
OF the game were the costs of sew
eral footballs and dozens of base
balls, uniforms and materials tor
track work. 1t cost us one hun
dred and fifty dollars to grade the
new athletic field of which less
than a hundred was subscribed by
the student body. We gave three
entertainments for the benefit OF
the athletic association in the
course of the year. Yet with all
our work athletics lost us last year
more than four hundred dollars.
Even in our poverty we have not
asked a single business man to
help us.
$50 far this year we have spent
nearly a hundred dollars more for
football supplies, We have no,
scheduled a game here because Of
the knowledge of our former losses.
and it will cost US nearly twenty
FIVE dollars to properly put on the
Thanksgiving game. We need tc
build new bleachers, and in the
winter we will use up dozens Of
baseballs which must be paid foi
before the time for opening the
season comes.
"In view of all these things ]
believe it is up to every loyal stud
ent of the college to get behind the
team and give us the best of sup
port in every way"

THIS AUTUMN A DRY ONE
Less Than One Inch of Rain has Fallen
Here Since Sept. ct.
FROM TUESDAYS DAILY.

With less than one inch of rain
fall for a period of nearly two
months, this autumn will probably
go on record as the dryest in the
history of Conway. Wells are rap
idly going dry all over the city and
in many neighborhoods water is at
a premium. The same condition
probably exists all over the state as
forest fires are reported from many
sections and for several days the
sun has been partially obscured by
a pail of smoke.
During the entire month of Oc-
tober only 10, or less than one
fifth of an inch of rain fell in Con-
way, according to the government
guage in charge of Prof. G.. H.
Burr, and this precipitation was
scattered over period extending
from September Fl to Nov. 2. On
October 8, OF inch fell; October IS,
.oI inch, and October %, 10 inch,
making a total tor the month of
10.
Up to this date 80 inch has fallen
here during November, occurring
follows: Nov. 2, GO; Nov. 10, IA.
A trace of rainfall was recorded on
Nov. 9 and 10.
This gives a total of 80 inches of
PRECIPITATION during the period eX-
tending from September Fl to the
present. date.
In September, however, the rain
fall up to the 27th was unusually
heavy, total OF 7,46 inches having
fallen during the month, but after
September 27 the precipitation
practically ceased.

MAY MOVE TO LITTLE ROCK
Congressman Reid Thought Likely to Lo-
cate in Capitol City.

Little Rock, Nov. Io-During
the past few days, Charles G. Reid
congressman of this district, has
been in Little Rock looking over
some property, and from the nature
of that shown him by local teal es-
tate men, and the subsequent search
for Office room by Congressman
Reid, it is inferred that he is con-
templating moving to Little Rock
to make his home here in the future.
Mr.. Reid has returned to his home
In Morrilton, without making pub
lie his plans for the future, but in
innate friends admit he is contem-
plating moving to Little Rock and
opening an Office here to practice
law between sessions of Congress.
There is another rumor going the
rounds, which has not been denied
that in the event Congressman
Reid moves to Little Rock, he will
enter into law partnership with
Charles Jacobson, who will move
from his present Office to suit of
rooms to be taken by the firm.
Charles Jacobson refuses to discuss
the proposition, though he has not
denied that such a deal is on foot.
Real estate men confirm the report
that Congressman Reid contem-
plates moving to Little Rock, and
was looking, when here, for a
house in which to reside.

Little Rock, Nov. 21.-Locked
in by the refusal of the trunk lines
of the state to grant joint rates, the
the coal operators of Arkansas are
in serious predicament now, be-
ing ca>hned to business along the
lines upon which the mines are To-
Gated, thus placing them at the
mercy of the Illinois operators,
who are daily adding more of Ar
kansas to their territory. The only
hope the Arkansas operators have
is the forcing of the railroads to
give joint rates, or to increase the
interstate rates so as to shut the
Illinois mines out of Arkansas.
