Old Man Grump has lost his crouch,

All morning he has been trying to
figure out, who it was that said meet

He says he is going to cop that prize

the business men of the town.
Well no doubt you too are acquainted
with the business men of Paris, so get

Then you too will display that smile
that won't come off. Just keep your
eye on the News and remember there
is money in the who Is. Who" con-

Little Rock.

By the narrow margin of five votes
the proposition submitted to the
voters Of the Little Rock precinct to
levy tax for the purpose of estab
fishing a graded school carried in the
election held there SATURDAY.. At the
same time a board of trustees was
elected.
The election passed off without
incident but the interest manifested
by the voters of the precinct was at
its height and full vote was polled.
AS evidence by the vote cast which
gave IS for and GO against the propo-
sition sentiment was almost evenly
divided.
1.-THE tax levied will meet every con-
dition required, in the erection of a
new school building sufficient to &C.
commodate two hundred pupils and the
employment of at least four teachers.
The fight for the proposition to car
ry was waged hot by those who favor
ed the measure and as there are about
two hundred children of school age in
this territory the community was
badly in need of school in which the
higher branches of education could be
taught.
When the polls closed large crowd
gathered around the voting booth and
the result of the contest was greeted
with loud cheers and church bells
rang.
The trustees elected and the votes
they received are as follows: L. A.
Soper, 40. E. J. Burris, 40; C. H.
Dalzell, 80; j. E. Young, 81; R. H.
