 Mrs. A. c. Bratcher. The contestants should get busy right now and do a little thinking for themselves. The rumors have come ire quently that such and such a candidate has 50, 60 and some times a hundred thousand votes saved up to vote at a particular time and some of the contest ants hearing these "rumors" be- come discouraged and actually get "cold feet" and loose inter- est in the contest. When the count comes these candidates never get in their great volume of votes and thus it is that the disheartened candidate is sur prised and made to feel sorry. But the wild rumor" is often started for just the very purpose 1t accomplishes, that is, to dis courage. In this way the thoughtless ones who pay atten- tion to these wild rumors, are so disheartened as to drop out of the contest and some one else gets the votes which would go to them. It is just a little game of 'blufing" and each and ev- cry contestant ought right now be prepared and guarding against these surprises. In con- tests l have witnessed, l have known some of the most success full candidates to have been driv- en from the race by story to the effect that some other candi- date had large number of votes in store and was simply trifing along, waiting for the finish to claim the first prize, when, as a matter of fact, the bluffing" candidate did not have enough votes to win the smallest prize. DON'T BE ALARMED.
 Now, if you ever hear that somebody else has enough cou- pons saved back to win the prize, even if you feel sure that you have he ard from reliable source" pay no attention to it at all for if you do you will no doubt pay for it. In other words, don't be an "easy mark" just let lem do the talking and keep your own votes to yourself, so that no one else will know what you have.
 JUST REMEMBER, that the elimination of competition in the contest is fine thing and that there will be those who not only put you out by this 'bluffing" but who will also discourage by telling you they've quit; the

BUSINESS OUTLOOK GROWS
 BRIGHTER

The financial condition of Pine Bluffs business houses is better than ever before at this time of the year, notwithstanding the fact that this was looked upon by manga as a very unfavorable crop year up to the mid dle of August, when business began to take on more prosperous air and the crop critics were thenS fore ed to admit that they had been lab bring under the influence of the 'scaregerm, and that the crops around this section are even better than they were last year
 The banks of Pine Bluff are well supplied with the necessary funds for moving the cotton. crop, and un- less this section is visited by unus- ually early frosts, which is hardly probable, the number of cotton bales handled this year will even outnum- Der the receipts of 1909-10. There has been noticeable revival in the T and the wholesale houses of the city are receiving orders for fall and win ter stocks that indicate confidence on the part of the country merch- ants that is very gratifying.
 Viewed from every standpoint the country is in much better condition than ever before, and with our farm CTS entrenched behind their present bumper crops of hog and hominy to spare, and two new railroads an as sured quantity for Pine Bluff; our people have reason to feel. proud and are justified in proclaiminA to the world that Pine Bluff is the best city in the state for home or invest ment and that Arkansas is the best state in the Union for the farmer

AN OBJECT LESSON ON GOOD
 ROADS.

The visit of our neighbors from Little Rock Sunday is an object les son to those who have viewed the Good Roads movement with suspic- ion. The distance between the two cities is about forty-five miles, and the run was made in less than four hours. After spending several hours in the city the excursionists returned to Little Rock none the worse for the long run. Before the railroads con- nected the two cities it required full day to drive from one city to the other, and in order to make the drive with the old time stage it was necessary to use a relay of horses, changing horses twice between here and Little Rock, and then pulling into either city after dark if there happened to come shower, as the roads were always soft and muddy and full of roots, stumps, washouts and hills and hollows, and in many places the passengers were at times compelled to get out and walk for fear of being overturned or stuck in the mud All the roads were then worked by the farmers, when worked at all, and it was only when the roads became absolutely impossible that the road overseers would warn out the men in his district to put them in a passible condition, or as was often the case, to cut new road around the worst places.
 Could some of our citizens come back-those who have gone to the world beyond-and see the improve ments in road building, they would stand speeches. from amazement. Yet the work is hardly begun, and to the much abused auto is due large share of the credit for the good roads in Arkansas. Vive La Auto.

SOME PROVISION
 FOR WHITE WOMEN
New Law to Be Presented to State Legislature at Next Session 10
 Establish Sewing Prison.

Little Rock, Ark, Sept. 5.-With the next session of the legislature but a few months off, many new bills are now coming to light, and among the new ones is one which will make some preparation to care for white woman convicted to serve terms in the Arkansas penitentiary. At the present time there are no white wo- men in the institution and it has been customary to pardon women sent there rather than subject them to the indignities they would be fore ed to encounter in the prison. If such rule should continue, Arkan- sas would be overun with women cri- minals, so something must be done to prevent this. 1t is probable that the new bill Will provide for building where the white woman can sew for the conviets, under the supervision of a matron. Even this plan would be costly now though, when there has been only one white woman brought to the penitentiary in the past five years and she was sent to the reform school to serve sentence of six months.

Modern science has discovered that dandruff is caused by germ that digs up the scalp in scales, as it burrows down to the roots of the hair, where it destroys the hairs vit- ality, causing falling hair, and ulti- mately, badness. After Prof. Unna of Hamburg, Germany, discovered the dandruff germ, all efforts to find a remedy failed until the great labora- tory discovery was made which re- suited in Newbro's Herpicide.

TO IMPROVE THE
 DELIYERYgOF MAIL
Postmaster Furth Asks Pine BIuffianS to Aid Him in His Efforts to Give
 Them Good Service.

By direction of the Post Office De- partment, the attention of patrons of this office is invited to the advan- tages of providing facilities for the receipt of their mail by erecting con- veniently accessible boxes or cutting suitable slots in their doors. Such action would enable the postmaster to give a prompter and better deliv- cry service with the means at his disposal, since the carriers can cover much more territory in less time if not compelled to wait for an answer to their ring. Private receptacles for mail are also great convenience to the householder, obviating the ne cessity of responding to the carrier S call at inconvenient moments and permitting the safe delivery of mail in the absence of members of the household. They also prevent the occasional necessity of carriers $ proceeding on his route without de- II sSA All AA4eAiA OCSoucO oL AoAA LII . tO answer his ring within reasonable time, and enable him to make deliver ies to patrons living on or near the end of the route at an earlier hour.
 Ut has been shown by actual ex- perience that the benefits derived by patrons of city delivery from the use of such receptacles far outweigh the small expense involved. As this of- flee is interested in furnishing the best possible service at the least expense, your compliance with the foregoing suggestions will be much appreciat- ed.
 Respectfully,
 F. c. FURTH,

The investigation of the land frauds in the Indian Territory part of Okla homa should be an incentive to the next congress of the, United States to enact law that will forever put a stop to the wholesale robbery of the Indians by shark-lawyers and land-grabbers. 1t should also stir up that body and cause its members to get busy and give to the Indians the money and property that the gov ernment has so long withheld from them 1t is the lordly leisure of these powerful projects that has pay ed the way for so much fraud in that country, and it is high time that some steps were taken to put an end to it.

It has only been short time since Tom Watson was treated ito coat of whitewash and allowed to take a seat on the back end of the band wagon, after his insane rantings through the camp of the Populist party, and one would have thought he could keep quiet few days after such an unpleasant and humiliating career, but without waiting for the whitewash to dry or the Populist smell to get off of him he is LID and at his old tricks.
