AN unusual occurrence was the ar
rest, this week, at Chicago, of Miss
A. L. Shelly. President of the
American Steel Car company, charged
with operating a confidence game,
which when done by men is called
watering the stock, and which, under
their manipulation, seems to be quite
a legitimate proceeding. The cor
poration is capitalized under the laws
of Dakota, at 10000, 900, and it is
surprising that a woman should be
allowed to assume such Il great re-
sponsibility. 1t may be that this is
the cause of the kick.

Highgrove, Calf, April 25,

Highgrove, Calf, April 25, 1908.
 Editor ne:-Perhaps my friends in Arkansas would read with some in- terest few jottings from me. have now been a resident of the "Golden West" for about two years. I came here with the hope that the climatic conditions would at least prolong my life for few years. am still having to live on carefully prescribed diet and am not able to work. My family is well satisfied in this country, but if I were an able-bodied man I would much prefer to be back in Arkansas.
 Tom Goforth lives in three blocks of me. He is working in an orange packing house at $2.25 per day and Alvin is going to school.
 Times are picking up in this country ; work is plentiful but living comes high. devote some time to catching goph- CTS and am quite as adept at the busi- ness as I was in watch and pistol trading in Arkansas.
 went to Los Angeles and Long Beach and saw Uncle Sam's sixteen battleships come in. It was truly a grand sight. I stood on the shore at night and watched them illuminate aad as I walked out on the pier at Long Beach, as the monstrous searchlights shed beams that were binding.
 It was glorios surroundings as these great lights played back and forth, while the great white ocean waves rolled in the beautiful sea guls circled about in the heavens and the bathers lodged the waves in one grand array. It was great beyond description. saw a fish taken out that weighed 240 pounds.
 The army of uniformed sailors about 400 in number, presented another great sight, as they came forth from the great vessels to greet the people on the land.
 This is the greatest valley in some respects in the west. There are lands here that would be good investment at $2000 per acre. The climate is warm and invigorating. It is great place for men like Dr. Poyror and Blunt Grim who are not able to buy heavy clothing, but you people who have plenty and good health would advise you after all to stay in Arkansas. take great interests in the affairs of Arkansas and regret~very much that cannot be there to help re-elect A. J. Russell for circuit clerk.
 I would appreciate a letter from any of my old-time friends.
 Very truly yours, A. E. GRAHAM.

Full Republican State Ticket.

There were no special surprises sprung at the Republican state convention at Hot Springs last week.
 A resolution were adopted in- structing for Taft. Gen. Clayton H. L. Remmel, F. w. Tucker and J. E. Bush (colored) were chosen delegates at large from the state.
 About the only unusual step taken was the indorsment of state wide prohibition, in that the platform favors the submission of the question to the voters of the state by legislative enactment.
 The first time for some years a full state ticket was named. The nomination of Judge John L. Worthington for governor was made by unanimous choice, no other name even having been mentioned for the honor.
 The ticket named for state of- ficers is made up as follows:
 Governor-John I. Worthing- ton of Harrison.
 Secretary of state-T. O. Fitz- patrick of St. Francis.
 Attorney General-Frank A. Youmans, Sebastian.
 Treasurer-N. B. Burrow, of Franklin.
 Auditor-A. A. Keller of Ash- ley.
 Land Commissioned. H. Ed wards of Mississippi.
 Commissioner of Mines, Manu. lecturers and Agriculture-W. E. Yeager of Hemstead.
 Railroad Commissioners-K. A. Norman of Yell, Henry Thorne of Desha and E. F. Klein of Garland.
 Supreme Judges-W. P. Speer of Newton, E. H. Vance of Hot Spring County.

From New Mexico

J. E. Norris is in receipt of a letter from his brother A. J. of House, N. M., in which are contained some items, which the former believes would be of some interest to Tribune readers, in view of the fact that it comes from the "Promised Land" of New Mexico, where several citizens of this country have reaped fortune in experience.
 The following extracts are made from the letter:
 We have just had good rain and everything looks fresh and green to- day. It has been fine spring so far, only it had been pretty dry up to the present time. Land broken last year has retained it's moist we'll. Lots of corn has been planted and some is coming up. Garden stuff is late. The sod got so dry before I got my ether work done that did not get but 15 acres broken. I am going to plant 30 acres of land away from home that was broken last year. Am planting 45 acres in all in Indian corn and maize, and some early corn for feed.
 So many people have come in that our feed has all been used up until it is quite tax to feed a team, the price is so high, but my mules are fat and slick.
 1 get very lonesome out here. It is lightning tonight and as the flashes come and go I cannot keep you and our old loved ones off my mind. Brother, did we not enjoy life in the happy old days? Those times have passed out, but never shall forget them. take some amusement some times shooting rabbits, but have never got an ante lope. The other night some ran by the place and the dogs caught one about mile and half away. I heard them stop but did not know they had caught 1t until one of them carried the head in few days afterward. They are great dogs and are guards for the whole settlement. If wolf comes in two miles they chase him away.
 was in the brakes a few weeks ago after posts and I saw two black bears, but had no gun. They were fine look ing fellows. A few days later man killed one thereabout that weighed over 500 pounds. I expect to take a hunt in the mountains as soon as I get done planting, where there is lots of game. Wish you could go along. It is about 100 miles from here.
 Mark and constitute my farm force and we don't push things much. Three of the boys have claims.
 Things get to looking pretty blue sometimes but really no worse than I expected. I have never seen a country come out as fast as this has. People are coming in every few days to buy land.

Interested in Good Roads

Bloomfield, Mo-, April 27, 1908. Editor of The Tribune.
 Dear Sir:-I notice from your paper that you are doing some work on the public roads in Carroll county near your town. I wish to say that am pleased to know that the good people of Arkansas and especially Carroll county have awakened to the fact that good roads are worth something. They are not only a pleasure to drive over with your fine turnouts in the balmy evenings with your best girl, but are an asset to the community in which they are located the value of which can hardly be estimated.
 When the farmer can be shown that every pound of freight that is hauled by all the railroads in the country has to first be hauled over wagon road to shipping point, and when he also is shown that the cost to himself in haul ing this freight is more than it cost by UQe TdllTOdu uO ScV lU tO leS uCoeiudulOu, {, all on the account of poor highways, he will immediately ask for road law that something can be done under.
 I will say that Arkansas is not so badly behind with roads, for greater part of this country, including great deal of Southern Missouri, is in the same shape. But it is possible for your section of the state to have the best of roads. You have the material in the shape of gravel in large quantities at hand in nearly every case and the means that nature provides cannot be excelled anywhere.
 l am writing this because feel that I ought to have something to say about Arkansas as she is my native state and spent most of the early part of my life there, and any move toward bring ing her one more step toward the front causes me much pleasure, as good roads making is my business.
 Yours very truly,
 c. s. KIRKPATRICK.
 Highway Engineer.

"YEs, I have seen wetter years than this one." says Truthful James. ''I seen rain once when it.rained so blamed fast on a steep roof that the water was a foot deep on both sides of the roof and eighteen inches on the comb. Before the rain stopped the water was more than waist deep on the high prairie and boatin' on the hills was just splendid. There was one mighty curious thing happened durin' that rain. A feller had come in there and picked out claim durin' one of the wust dry spells I ever seed in all my born days. He had the surveyor survey him out good full quarter section. We'll, gentlemen, when the rain was over that fellow went out and found that his land had shrunk up till he only had 81 and a fraction. The rest of the 16O acres that he supposed he had was made up of dry weather cracks in the soil."

THE Tribune editor is in receipt of a check of small dimensions to cover money expended to pay for witness attendance at the celebrated McLoud- Russell elec- tion contest, the execution lately issued against the bondmen hav- ing brought them across. The bondmen got off exceedingly light, as a great many items of cost in in the case never found their way to the fee book, not a penny of cost having been certified up from the county court, where the case hung for two months and was called several times. There was an item of more than $50 paid stenographers in order to expedite business that the court disallowed and and Russell had to pay. Then the judgment was given only for costs that Russell had caused to be made. Me- Loud s many witnesses were never paid a cent. Thus ends a cause that has elicited much interest in political circles in Carroll county for nearley two years.

ALL things come to him who hustles while he waits. Don't sit down with folded hands or stand with arms akimbo set until the occasion tells you what to do; don't wait for something to turn up or somebody to come along and take you by the hand to lead you up, without any labor on your part, to the heights others have gained by push and per- severance.
