rhe advertisements of Pine Bluffs nIeasure grounds, Forest Park, have ,,rried the phrase, Arkansas Peer less Playground, for the past two seasons, and no paper in the state has taken exceptions to it. It has 1 beeu advertised thus in the Bill Board" the greatest park paper on earth, and no one has murmured. Now. we are about to have the opin- ion of Travellers from every sec ton of the state, and the management has not receded one inch, but still stands by their ad.
 This surely shows strong belief upon their part that Forest park is the best park in the state, and, even to appearing ungenerous to our vis- itors, we must back the management up in their statement
 Nowhere in the state can such a complete little park be found. No other park can show the same met ropolitan features.

 Indianapolis, June 1.-In allowing Delaven Smith and Charles R. Will Hams, owners of the Indianapolis News, to introduce witnesses to show why they should not be removed to. the District of Columbia to stand trial for criminal libel.

TRANSFER OF STOCK.
Alleged That Diliey Made Transfers After Becoming InSOlyent-LcOla Company Involved.

Two civil suits of rather senSa tiOnal nature were filed in the Je.- ferson Chancery and Circuit coures in this city Tuesday by Attorneys ander, as counsel for the Simmons National Bank. The litigations grew out of the recent failure of the Leola Lumber Company. in which F. l.. Dilley and other Pine Bluffians are said to have lost heavily. The de fendants in the suits are F. L. Dill ley, Geo. M. Dilley, his father; the Dilley Foundry Company and Mrs. Sadie F. Dilley.
 In it's petitions the National Bank asks that the transfer of certain stock in the Dilley Foundry company to Geo. M. Dilley by F. L.. .Dilley, be cancelled. set aside and held void as being male for the purpose of de- frauding creditors of F. l.. Dilley, in collection of debts that a deed exc cuted by F. l.. Dilley to his wife, Mrs. Sadie F. Dilley. in which he trans ferred certain property in the city, be also cancelled, set aside and held void, as being in fraud of rights nf the creditors of F. l.. Dilley; that the Dilley Foundry Company be tempor- arily enjoined from permitting Geo. M. Dilley from transferring stock on the books of it's corporation until the final hearing of the case, and that the stock and property be condemned and be sold for the benefit of the ! creditors of +. l.. Dilley.
 The Simmons National Bank al- leges that three notes for $3,O00. $5,- 1 900 and $10,000. were executed by F. l.. Dilley on November 2nd and December 31st, 1908. It is claimed that the note for $3,00O was payable in four months, the $5,O0O note in the same length of time and the $10,- 900 note in 60 days. No part of these notes have been paid. it is charged and are still due and unpaid.
 The bank further charges that F. L.. Dilley is indebted to divers other creditors in the amount of at least $30,000. and is hopelessly insolvent growing out of the fact that the Le- ola Lumber Company has become in. solvent and was adiudged bank rupt ill the United States Distric Court
 It is further charged that at the time of contracting the indebtedness F. l.. Dilley was the owner of 1.49t shares of capital stock of the Dille' Foundry Company, the face value 0 which was $37,46O, but of the actua cash value of $57,460; that F. l.. Dill

MT. Bryan
 to NewlyWedS

Whether or not Mir. Bryan is nom. mated again, he will continue to be enc of our National Assets.
 His opinion on matters of right liv. ing are worthy of the greatest respect and his advice is sound.
 You don't have to agree with MT. Bryan politically to admit that he is right in speaking of newly married couples, he says: with the vast ma Jorlty of young men and young wom- en the life plan includes the gradual accumulations of fortune. The urst rule that they need to learn is to i've within their means. The hus- oand and wife should make their plans together; they enter heartily upon their work, she is as willing to sdcflhce as he is to labor-and her willingness to save is as important a factor in their success as is his ability to earn.'
 we nope that all the June brides } ana bridegrooms in Pine Bluff will take Mr. Bryan's wise advice, and we want to add that nothing will so help you to become systematic in your domestic economy as to open a say ings account with the Pine Bluff Trust Company.
 We will encourage your thrift by paslng you 3 per cent compound in- 'erest on your savings no matter how small or great.

THE NEW AND THE OLD.

w It'll the well wishes of all, Governor Pen
newill today enters upon his duties as
chief magistrate OF the State. The ceremonies in-
cident to the Inauguration notable and prop
erly so, and the event is one that will be long
remembered There is a great gathering of the
clans at the state capital The social functions
connected with the Inauguration are surprising
any that were formerly held. Mr.. Pennewill be-
gins with every prospect OF giving the State
creditable administration. There is no reason
why he should not be successful.
The duties Of a Governor Of Delaware are not
burdensome, A man with reasonable capacity,
and with desire to do right, should have no
trouble in meeting the requirements The State
IS IN fairly good condition There is an era of
good feeling at present The Legislature is so
composed that there is little opportunity for par
tsan legislation and the less Of that kind of legis-
lation we have the better it is for the State.

cations to no one in particular. lie won his nom

will be the fault of the new Governor
In all appointments Mr. Pennewill will we be-
ieve, consider the welfare anu service of the
State The best service that party can render
State is by the best administration of the af-
fairs of the State. That is the shrewdest kind of
politics to be played We, in Delaware. are
learning this as it has been learned elsewhere
Mr.. Pennewill, we believe, is abreast OF the
times in these matters Here, in Delaware. politi-
can conditions have changed The last election
showed that there is an independent element in
Delaware ready at any time to rebuke one party
or the other and this force which is likely to in
crease must be reckoned with by political parties
The Governors of Delaware on the whole have
been creditable men, and Mr.. Pennewill Will
without question, seek TO maintain this standard
With the Inauguration of Governor Pennewill
Mr. Lea retires from the executive chair, having
the satisfaction of knowing that he has made a
good record. In his administration we believe
that the retiring Governor gauged the sentiment
of the State properly. There has been nothing
sensational about his administration 1t has been
simply a plain, straightforward administration
such as was expected of the retiring Governor.

The principle OF the federation or COM

be simple and direct. They get the best
