irsts. Extra butter Re a pound lower on
sale at 34c pound. 4 declining market for
that, staple also expected by a ma ajority of
the trade. In the egg department 1ac was Topped
of the quotations for all grades. the hew prices
ranging from lSc to 21c dozen. Liberal offer
ings and the inability of sellers to readily mar
ket all of their holdings through regular trade
channels were given the reasons for the de-
cline

SULLENGER NOMI-
Mated FOR JUDGE.
Won Over His Five Worthy 0ppo-
nents, Receiving 8 to 6 on
the Home Stretch"

Pursuant to a previous call the
Republican County Committee
met in the Court room Monday
afternoon and presided over by
chairman A. A. Haynes, pro-
ceeded to ballot for the most
available candidate for county
Judge.
There were five candidates: J.
E. Sullingers, G. T. Belt, 7. F.
Newcom, r. E. Wilson, and j.
M. Walker, all of which received
the same number of votes on the
first ballot from the Is commit
teemen.
But after repeated balloting
the race narrowed down to Sui
linger and Belt, when on the
last ballot Sullinger received 9
votes to Belt 6, when with har-
mony and the best of feeling
prevailing he was unanimously
declared the nominee.
The good feeling prevailing
was the best compliment that
could have been paid Mr.. Sullin-
ger as it proved that the COM
mitteemen and the other candi-
dates recognized in him the
combined qualities of leader and
gentleman.
Rev. E. B. Blackburn preached
to the congregation at Clay last
Sunday. Bro. Blackburn met
with a warm reception and was
warmly requested to come back
on next First Sunday, which in
vitation he accepted.

have this proposition to make. A
great many of the haulers will
give from ten to twenty days
each with teams and wagons to
help fix the roads. A number
of the mine owners and managers
have stated their willingness to
furnish a man and pay for his
labor all summer long if the
county will put up a rock crusher
to crush limestone rock. Crushed
limestone rock, haulers and their
teams and wagons will solve the
road question. BY this means it
would be possible to get a part
of the roads in good shape each
year. Year by year this work
could go on and one good road
added each year would make
many. 1t would not take many
good roads in Crittenden County
to educate the balance of the
county in their money value.
Whenever Crittenden County
realizes what she loses each day
on account of bad roads, and the
hindrance they are to the proper
development of her mineral re-
sources she wiz wake up. Good
roads will mean the greatest
mining district in the world.

MONDAY WAS THE
BANNER DAY
A Big Crowd in Town With Stock,
Leaving More than $4,000
with Our two Banks.

On MONDAY morning Drlgnt
and early, people commenced to
congregate in Marion from all
parts of Crittenden, Livingston
and Caldwell counties, with a
goodly number of prominent
stock men and buyers from Nor
garfield and Hopkinsville. There
were more fine horses and mules
exhibited and sold at good prices
than ever known on any previ-
GUS Court day in the history of
Marion. more than twenty thous-
and dollars being left on deposit
in our two banks. The greatest
number of mules bought by any
one buyer went to r. M. Young
of Morganfeld. They numbered
% and were all last Spring
mules. The price paid averaged
$4,000 Jno. Cambron of Nor
garfield and Chas. Lane and
level Bros, of Hopkinsville
bought quite a number of mules
from 3 to 8 years old, paying
good prices.
While Crittenden county is
noted for fine mules the display
Monday was far in advance of
that of any previous occasion.
And even with all the fancy
prices paid and offered, many
refused them and lead their
stock home.
But the best bargain of the
whole day was the Graves farm
near Dycusburg. in good neigh
borhood. and reasonably good
land, bought by Gus Graves for
$3.50. 90 for the 100 acres. Why
go west when you can buy land
this cheap in Crittenden. The
land was sold by Judge ]. G.
Rochester as County Commits
sioner.
when r. NJ. YttIl 4 scr.
and John Cambron started their
fine drove of young mules for
Union county Tuesday morning
early, il attracted as much at
tention as would Buffalo Bills
Wild West Show.
Notwithstanding the fact that
such days are not usually the
best days. for the merchants,
they. on this occasion reaped a
rich harvest and especially did
the Restaurants and Hotels do a
land Office business. In fact
there was nothing but eating
and trading.
Mr.. Babb sold over 500 water
melons Monday to the restless
hungry crowd, keeping a man
busy wheeling off the rinds.
j. H. Orm and Haynes & Tay-
Tor, our two popular drug firms
had their cold drink counters
and tables full of customers all
day.
Mrs. NJ. E. Glass and Miss
Addie Maynard reaped a rich
harvest in subscription for the
Record-Press Monday, polling
above one hundred thousand
votes,
