Last Year Value OF Crop In This State

Little Rock, Jan. II, 1000.--
Final estimates which have Just
been made by the Crop Report.
ing Board Of the Bureau Of Sta
tislics Of the United States De-
partmont Of Agriculture on the
tobacco crop of 1908 are OF
peculiar interest to Arkansas,
The interest which Arkansas has
in the report might not be easily
apparent, in view Of the fact that
comparatively little tobacco 10
raised in this state, but II Is be.
cause Of this latter fact that there
10 much Of interest to be found in
the estimates.
The figures contained in this
government estimate Of tho crop
OF l00S would indicate thHh so-
bacco growing 10 one OF tho most
profitable industries In Arkan-
sas, but IN spite Of the fact prao-
tically no tobacco Ia raised In this
state, The government estimate,
which is based on reports from
correspondents and agents Of the
bureau, supplemented by infor-
nation derived from o / h Q +
sources, shows that there were
S01 acres devoted TO the raising
Of tobacco In Arkansas In 1908,
and that the average value of
the crop per acre was SOL 80.

| of lawlessness Of a similar char
acter, not only in Tennessee but
in all sections of the country.
1t may be put down as a positive
fact that a majority of people in
every state and community favor
the preservation Of peace by the
maintenance Of law and order,
and just so long as the over
balance Of public sentiment is
not on the side of crime, dis
order and riot, just that long
will law and order prevail. Men
may take liberties with the law
and commit crimes against the
community under cover of dark
ness without suffering punish
ment for a while, but in the end
It's the same old story. "Mur-
derwill out" 1t always has. It
always will. A band Of men
may undertake to regulate the
affairs ofn community to their
own dictations,A but the under
taking is fatal. They may ter.
rorize the community for a time
with threats and depredations,
but sooner or later will come
time for an accounting, the en-.
forcement Of law and the restor-
alton of order.

Reelfoot night riders, protected
as it was by vows and oaths Of
secrecy for some time, met dis
aster and is reaping legally
death, that which it had meted

was the mother of Tom G. Blackwell,
formerly of Uniontown, then Of st.

The casket was of shape to fit
the body, the foot being quite point
ed, the body of the casket remaining
slender until the shoulders were reach
ed, when there was sufficient breadth
for them; then the casket shaped into
the neck and the head-rest seemed
almost as a cap on the body of the
box, over which the glass was oval,
with a metal-curved lid; the lid glass
was broken by the grading machine.
The skeleton was intact The body
was laid in the old cemetery here la

was once a graveyard, and it was here
that Gen. Morgan was Dried, although

The land originally belonged to Gen.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed You have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed, DeaS.css is
the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dition Of the mucous surfaces.

Mrs. Hunley, besides being a loving

spirit and her passing over into the
great beyond will be sadly lamented ly
both relatives and friends. Mrs. Hun
leys husband preceded her to the
grave several years ago and was no
doubt waiting on the beautiful shores
of heaven for his loved one to join
him where a joyful reunion of two
kindred spirits took llace. AS for
L... neighbor we knew Mrs. Hunley

would say, weep not for your loved
one, for she has gone to join her
Creator in heaven, where a crown OF
life will be given her Although her
eyes are closed in a lasting sleep, her
teaching and her christian walks will
remain with us and will be as a bea-
con light to lead us closerto heaven.
