Improving the Roadbed.

The Missouri Pacific railway is now repairing all of their branch lines with new ties and working their bridges over so as to make it safe for the travelling public. On the Farmerville branch each sec tion has 10 men and an extra gang of 30 men working daily to get the line up in good shape and on the Little Rock & Monroe all the men that can be secured are now at work, and by the early spring they will be able to maintain more faster schedules and make better con- nections, which will be a great benefit to this part of the country in general. Business on these lines is now good and prospects for another year better than have been looked for for several years.

Cotton Seed.

Farmers should have care
 about the matter of cotton seed for the next crop. Cotton seed are selling at the extraordinary price of more than 50 cents per bushel. At such a price the natural impulse is to tu n the seed into cash, for they never before reached any such price. It is estimated that something like 100000 tons of seed are annually sold to the mills. The current price would make these about $55 per ton; thus the

To the Voters of Union County.

1 or having to correct false lm- presson that is being made throughout this county in refer ence to my dismissal of J. R. Low enthal. my former deputy.
 J. R. Loventhal and some of his strong supporters are attempting to create the impression that l dis charged him for a political purpose and since my brother, Ben Miles. has entered the race for Circuit Clerk. they are circulating the re port that turned Loventhal off for the purpose of advancing the interest of Ben Miles.
 This is placing me in a false at titude before the good people of Union county, which l will not al low without my vigorous protest.
 So wish to make the following statement upon my honor as man:
 At the time l discharged Loven- thai had no idea on earth, that Ben Miles had any intention of en- tering the race for clerk, nor did Ben Miles himself have any such intention at that time.
 
 discharged Loventhal because he made so many errors and mis- takes on my records that could not afford to keep him any longer as my official deputy.
 have been writing letters all over this county for the last three months getting back the original deeds and mortgages so as to cor rect the mistakes he had made in the recording. and 1 don't know whether or not will ever be able to correct them all during my term of office. If any man doubts my word. he can step into this office and I will verify the truthfulness of my statement.
 wish to state furthermore. that E l vigorously opposed Ben Miles en- tering this race for clerk and can prove it by numbers of the best cit izens of this town who know the truthfulness of this statement.
 have hoped to be able to fill ous the remainder of my term of office in a quiet way, earnestly en- deavoring to discharge my official duties in an honest and faithful manner, without mixing up in any of the disgusting scrambles for of flee, but cannot and will not stand to be placed in false and unjust attitude b3fore my people who have so honored me, and whom l love and serve to the best of my ability.
 will state further, that if Ben Miles should be successful in thie race for clerk, l do not expect to have, in any way, any of the emul- umentS of the office. for have made valuable investments Tn Southwest Texas and my friends here know that it is my purpose to move to Texas after the expiration of my term of office:
 lregret the necessity of having to publicly make the above state ment, and 1 f1atter myself in think ing that there are quite number of the good people in this county who know me well enough to ac- cept my statement as true and sincere.
 Now 1 have endeavored to be plain, and at the same time, as courteous as possible under the circumstance
 Loventhal knows full well him. self, that what have stated above is true, and if he and his friends persist in attempting to misrepre- sent me, I will speak to them and you publicly in language without kid gloves.
 Respectfully.
 o. A. MILES.

L. Gibson of st. Joe, engineer, was
bruised about the knees. AS soon as
he saw that the collision was newt
able, he applied the emergency brakes
and jumped. His fireman, c. j. Cor
don of St. Joe, also jumped. He was
not injured. Their train was going
about eight miles an hour according to
Gibson.
Both trains were southbound. One
of the freights stopped about 7:40 so
that the crew could chain up car

Mr.. CRAWFORD WINS.
Gets Final Judgment Against Insur-
ance Companies.

The case which grew out of the
burning of the old Crawford theater,
in which ten companies We're defend
ants in a suit to recover $4,000 in
surance. has been decided in favor of
L. NJ Crawford by the United States
circuit court Of appeals. This decision
upholds the report made by ]. S. West
as special master to Judge Pollock.
After the Crawford opera house fire
the insurance companies refused to
pay the insurance because, they al
legged, it was greatly in excess of the
value of the property. The case was
originally filed in the district court, but
was afterward taken into the federal
circuit court.
Acting as special master. Judge
West recommended to Judge Pollock
a judgment in favor of Mr.. Crawford.
Later Judge Pollock confirmed this re-
port. The case was then taken into
the court of appeals and the decision
just handed down affirms Judge Pol
locks decision. The case has been in
court two years.

new ROCK ISLAND TRAIN
VIII Run Between Topeka and St. Joe,
Leaving at 4:SO \. NJ.

new train between Topeka and st.
Joseph is the most important announce
ment to issue from the Office of Cen
eral Superintendent Smalley after a
| time card meeting held in Topeka the
last few days.
This train will make the third train
| running between the two cities and is
placed in service to relieve the i'm
mense amount of traffic between this
city and st. Joe and to accommodate
the sleeper service between Caldwell,
Kan, and ST. Joseph.
1t has been customary for the Rock
Island to run their St. Joe sleepers via
Kansas City. From Kansas City they
would come down to Topeka out
through Harrington and to Caldwell. The
new time card will give the service a
more direct route direct from st. Joe
to Topeka and thence to Caldwell. 1t
will not only save time but will save
the Rock Island that much wheelage
over the Union Pacific tracks between
Topeka ard Kansas City.
The train will leave Topeka for St.
Joe at 4:30 in the morning and return
at 1880 at night. 1t leaves st. Joe at
1920 in the evening and returns to that
city at S:15 in the morning, thus giving
Topeka the layover and eventually the
train and engine crews. The new trains
will be known as Nos. 113 and ia.
This was the only important change
in the time card that will affect the
Kansas division. There are few minor
changes on the eastern divisions that
will not prove news to Topeka people at
this time.
The Californian" the new train to
California will arrive in Topeka about
20 minutes later than usual. IL is now
due out of here at 1856 and will be
due out at about Ais on the new card.
