3RD DRAINAGE DISTRICT
District Southeast of Newark /.
Established by County Court

The county court has issued an
order establishing Damage Dis
trict No. 4, southeast of Newark.
The ditch for this district will
start from a point about a mile
and q half below town, just south
of the railroad, and will run in two
prongs, one running in an easterly
course into Long branch, and the
other to the south, tapping Swan
pond and emptying into White
river.
This makes three drainage dis
tricts now organized in this immed-
late vicinity, one known as the
Mud Creek District, which will
drain the territory west and south
of Newark and will be about seven
miles in length; another being
District No. 3, east Of Newark,
which will drain the territory east
of Newark on the north side of
the Iron Mountain road, and No.
4, which has just been established
southeast of town.
The three districts will drain
this entire section of country and
will reclaim a vast area of fine land
that has heretofore been unfit for
agricultural purposes because of
the lack of proper drainage.

WHY VOTE FOR BROWN?

The Election day will soon be round,
And you at the polls will then be found
So read these lines and note them down
The reason why to vote for Brown.
Do you wish to vote for solid man
That you know will do the best he can
For an upright, straight and honest law
To govern the folks in Arkansas?
Then vote for Brown.
Do you want a man with good back bone
That's willing to stand and fight alone
With past record that has shown
That his works are open and may be
known? Then vote for Brown.
Do you want man you know will do!
That works for all and not few,
To whom the grafters need not go,
For if they do he'll tell them No?
Then vote for Brown.
Do you like man that's willing to tell,
Whater he knows on earth or hell;
That has conscience he will not sell,
And the dirty tricksters know it well?
Then vote for Brown.
Do you love your boy and for him stand?
Will you help him every way you can?
If so you will vote to help man,
That will help drive whiskey from the
land? Then vote for Brown.
For Brown will work, soon and late,
To drive the traffic from the state;
He is not ashamed nor afraid to tell,
That its dirty work leads down to hell
And they know it.
Do you want to down dirty trick,
That was gotten up by dirty click,
To down a man and down him quick,
Because that man had made them sick?
Then vote for Brown
They hate his name, it is sting,
That badly hurts the whiskey ring;
Now for the party they will sing,
And stoop to do most anything,
To beat Old Brown.
For all the people truly know,
Just what they did two years ago,
When Brown was running nominee,
They scratched him off their tickets
See? And voted the other way.
They cursed, kicked and lawed and lied,
And voted on the other side;
Yes all these things they have applied,
But Brown so far has never died,
He lives to win today.
He lives to fight grog, graft and greed,
And work for. things the people need,
To drive Saloons from every town.
If that's your ticket, vote for Brown.

Twin Peaks Company to Install Power
 Plant.

The latter part of last week Dan Fraser, purchasing agent of the Twin Peaks Mining company, accompanied by W. c. Marshall, general manager and superintendent of the company, were in Clifton. It is the object of the company to put in an extensive power plant at York station, by which they will transmit power to the mines and mill, and also use the same for a 13 mile tram-road to Fra seryille and the Mayfower district. A 50-ton mill is now being built for the company, which in short time will have been erected at the mines, with a cyanide adjunct of sufficient capacity to handle the tailings out put of the plant. The mill is so con- structed that at any time additional stamps and crushing machinery can be attached. The mines are so far developed that the above plant can be constantly in operation, and as the extensive development work is pushed ahead, the wealth producing capacity of this rich district will as- tonish the mining world.
 Ground upon which to erect the power plant, warehouses and lumber yard is being negotiated for at York from Henry Johnson, and as soon as the necessary papers can be made out and filed, work will commence at York on the proposition, and that little burg will assume a busy and live-wire appearance.

Metcalf Notes.

G. w. Green spent several days at the Fl Paso fair.
 Rev. N. Nichols will preach at the Baptist church Sunday at Il a. m.
 Metcalf was recently discovered by Duncan. We received an invitation to eat chicken pie and vegetables, which we shall be glad to accept. x.
 A crowd went, from Shannon Hill Sunday last to spend the day at Box canyon, and in spite of the weather they report having had a good time.
 A few nights ago a crowd went from Metcalf to Shannon Hill as the guests at a regular "rag dance." As everyone was to go in their every day clothes, and not "put on" all had a chance to see each other ''as you really are" It was a jolly gath ering, and almost any one could have attended and not felt embarrassed.

One of CIifton'S Needs.

A paying proposition, and one that the town of Clifton should have, is a first-class laundry. Several gentle men have investigated the feasibil- ity of such an enterprise and turned it down on account of Clifton water being unfit for the purpose and the cost of sterilizing the same. No one thought of mentioning the hot water that underlies the west side of town, down as far as riverside. This water is of such a temperature and purity that no fuel need be wasted for the purpose of having hot water at the laundry plant. A small motor and pump would be ample for all needs, and in conjunction with the laundry a bath house would be patronized by almost everybody, as the water is known to contain health-giving prop critics.
