Will Get Increase

Seventy cents on the dollar will be paid this year by the state on all confederate pensions, accord ing to the announcement made y esterday by State Auditor lobe. Last year only 62 cents was paid. There is an increase this year ov- CT last year in the total number Of pensions to be paid, but at the same time there is an increase in the amount of money available for the payment of the pensions. The second increase is due large ly to the efforts of the Arkansas Tax Commission as the result of the additiona! revenue paid ln' to the state treasury.

 J. K. Hamilton, who recently returned from a trip to Mineral Wells, Texas, that mecca of health, where is gathered at all times people from all parts of the country, states that there has been decided change in senti- ment regarding Arkansas. Mir. Hamilton has been making an nual trips to this famous resort, and heretofore when he told people where ke was from, there would spread over their faces a sneering smile that kept our ge- nial townsman in bad humor most of his stay. But it was diff ferent this last time, and when he announced his place of residence, instead of the laugh, there would come forth from his hearers an earnest inquiry about ouR lands, our resources, our peaches, our diamonds, our timber and our minerals. Everybody seems to have just awakened to the fact that Arkansas is a civilized coun- try, filled with an intelligent and a desirable class of citizens, and possesses more possibilities to the square inch than any oth- CT state in the union.
