Hanging

M Means to suspend from, or to fur uish something suspended or fast ened to wall, etc. Yes, hanging means more than that. Nowadays you'll see a whole lot of curbstone politicians standing around talking politics. Yes and get into very hot arguments, too. They are what are known as Hangers on" and they say the Hangers on" are the very worst obstacle around election time. Yes, we've heard office seek CTS say they'd be ''hanged" if they would pony up" what was request- ed and they were informed by the requester if they didn't do so and so he'd be hanged" if he'd support him. And there you are. Hanging" cuts a whole lot of ice in our every day doings. Now this week We will give clothes drying rack with each pound of our warranted good soc Tea, and both are guaranteed to give perfect satisfaction. Remember the clothes after being ironed should be hanged" on rack for short while before being laid away ana our rack is the best hanger in the markets It closes up when not in use.

Higher Rates

Little Rock, May 23.-Pota- toes and other vegetables in car loads are charged a rate over the former figures by five cents per hundredweight since the new To- cal and joint tariff sheet apply ing on those commodities, issued by the Missouri Pacific and Iron Mountain system became effec- tive, May 15.

arrest. Two of the boys went over to Argenta Sunday night when they arrived in Little Rock and on account of the enmity of the police of Argenta for sol diers they were arrested, and not on account of their actions. There has been a constant war fare between the police of that city and the soldiers of Fort Logan H. Roots and the com manding officer of that post has forbid his men to stop in Argen- ta and for that reason the boys were arrested and not for what they did. I write this to correct the impression that the boys from Prescott are worse than the members of the other com pany that was at Little Rock at the time, because the saying in Argenta is All soldiers look alike to the police of that place" and if it had been the members of the Pigott com pany it would have been the same.
