SHERMAN BLAMED BEFORE.
senator Rawlins Said He Was In
terested In Raid on Utes, And He
Made No Denial.
(From The New York Times.)

(From The New York Times.)
This is not the first time the name
of Vice-President Sherman has been
connected with a scandal involv. -
Indian lands. In 1902, when Mr.. Sner-
man, as Chairman of the Committee
of Indian Affairs in the House of
Representatives, had great influence
with the Indian Office at Washington,
and dominated legislation affecting
Indian lands, his pronounced activi-
ties in connection with an ATTEMPT to
control the mineral resuorces of the
Ute Indians, whose reservation is i'm
Utah, was the matter of much COZ,
ment at the Capitol
the attempts Of the Florence Min
Ing Company, New Jersey CORPORA
ton, organized on practically moth
ing except its prospective ability to
exercise the strongest kind of a pull
at the nations capital to get the min
Ing monopoly in the Uintah reserya-
ton of the Utes, covered a period of
several years. 1t was not until the
fall of 1901, however, that Mr.. Sher-
man appeared openly as its advocate
in Congress and in the Department of
the Interior. About that time United
States Senator Joseph l.. Rawlins. Of
Utah, openly charged Mr.. Sherman
with having personal and financial
interest in the New Jersey syndicate,
and Mr.. Sherman did not enter any
denial.
The mineral lands Of the Indians
aggregated some 1000. 900 or 5000, o,ooe
acres. The offer of the Florence MIN
ing Company provided for a royalty
to the Indian proprietors Of S per
cent. on the value of the ore taken
out. The usual royalty for such privi-
leges was from 25 to so per cent
After the consolidation Of the rival
concerns, when Mr.. Timms went to
Utah, Indian Agent Myton, under in
structions from the Indian Office went
500 miles to Denver to meet him. N.Y.
ton and his aids on the reservation
all began to work for the mining syn
dicate, representing to the Indian
wards that the plans Of the Florence
Mining Company had the approval of
the Federal authorities. In the mean
time the Utah delegation in CONGRESS
found themselves checkmated when
they sought to prevent the invasion
Of foreign corporation into the Uin-
tab reservation to the exclusion Of the
people Of Utah, who were anxious to
have the Indian lands opened for set
tlement.
Mr.. Timms took a delegation of
Uintah Indians to Washington in No
vember, 1901, unknown to the repre-
senatives of Utah in Congress. Later
Senator Rawlins got wind of what
was going on, and at the hearing be-
fore Secretary Of the Interior Hitch
cock on November IL, he openly ac-
cused Mr.. Sherman Of being financi-
ally interested in what he called the
raid that was being attempted. The
accusation was made before a roomful
Of people, but Mr.. Sherman made no
reply. -

Exchange Expires.

When the County Uniformity Board adopted the uniform system of school text books last year, one whole year was given in which to get the new books adopted and allow all patrons to exchange their old books for the new, which would save them many dollars.
 Book dealers at once realized that there was to be a radical change in the school book business. and with one exception, all dealers refused to sup ply the books on the exchange basis
 Landyoigt & Nadakin was the ex- ception. They came to the rescue of the old books which were displaced. and though they have handled the business at loss, perhaps, yet they exchanged all books offered that were exchangeable under the rules of the publishers and the board, and showed themselves to be the unselfsh friends of the people. This is not meant to iNiINSb upoii pOIICi utdlGIs, Det lldu a right to reject the exchange propo- sition, and from a business stand point, they did right. They cannot be blamed for refusing to handle a line of goods in manner that meant lots of work, confusion, dissatisfac- tion and probably a net loss Certainly not at a profit. On the other hand Landvoigt & Eadakin did make the exchange land certainly deserve the friendship and ,p4tronage of all who have books or other school supplies to buy, and that is all they seek.
 The exchange period expired on Oc tober 27th, 1910, and after that dat all old books on hand will be shipped to the publishers for credit on their account, .and no further exchange will be made.
 All teachers are requested to make this announcement in their school rooms so that it will be generally understood that the exchange period has expired, and there cannot and will not be any more books exchanged

The cotton crop of St. Francis coun ty may not be up to an average, but the price is certain to be good, and will probably more than even up the shortness, A short crop at good price is better than a good crop at a short price anyway, is it not? And if so, that proves that decreased acre age, with diversified farming, stock raising etc, on the side, would solve the problem of less work, better living and q surplus of cash for the farmer. Besides, with decreased acreage. much of the work now put upon large acreage could be put on the smaller crop, thus forcing it te greater yield by intense cultivation. We hope the farmers of this county will have an abundant harvest.

NEW DEPARTME
The Times to Inaugurate New
 Feature in lis Advertising Columns

fOfTeSJ tlty lS no longer llttle country town, and The Times is no longer little country newspaper.
 Forrest City has grown aud develop ed wonderfully the last ten years, and The Times has kept up with the pace.
 We might truthfully say that For rest City's growth, progress and i'm provement have been almost magical, and its upbulding has been phenomena al, and of a most subsl autial charac- ter. It's population has almost if not quite doubled, many new storebouses, gins, factories, industries, and in- numerable residences have been erect ed, and there are many other signs of up-to-date city "airs" noticeable all about us.
 No other city of the size of ours has better public utilities, and ours are being constantly improved
 The Times has spent hundreds up- on hundreds of dollars to do so. and has kept up with it's surroundings We have added power presses, folding machine, engine, larger paper cutter, several smaller machines, such as roundcornering, punching, perforat- ing, numbering, stitching, etc, and hundreds of dollars worth of new type, borders, brass rule, labor saving material and devices, and we believe the time is not far-distant when it will be compelled to put in a typeset- ting machine.
 Whatever the new era demands, we mean to supply it, and bend every energy and spare no money nor means to deserve the confidence and patron age of the people. Whatever demand is made upon us, we hope to be pre- pared to meet in a workmanlike man. ner.
 Of late there have been many small local advertisements of Wanted, " "F'or Sale, etc, scattered throughout the paper Some have requested those interested to call on or address this office, and we have thus been able to observe the responses" It has invariably been good, according to the matter advertised, and we think we can make the responses even more numerous by inaugurating regular department for all want, for sale, and other items of their nature Many persons read the want columns of the newspapers more diligently than they read the news columns
 Life is made up of little things and some of these are just as important as the greater. This is especially true in the conduct of newspaper, hence, while it is or may be consider ed in itself small matter, the de mand has made it important and necessary, and The Times will here after have Want Column." in winch all Wants, "For Sale, D "Help Wanted, Situations Wanted, For Rent, Lost and Found" and in fact, all advertising of this character will be inserted at nominal rate of 25c for not exceeding thirty words each insertion. No advertisement will be inserted for less than 25c. A special rate will be quoted on larger ads, and for longer time. When prac- ticable all copy must be in our office by Wednesday night
 We hope this new arrangement will give better publicity to these ads and please the public, and that it will be liberally patronized.
