COMPANY SETTLES CLAIMS.
Rock Island Pays Rather Than Have
Lone LITIGATION

Special to Times Republican.
Atlantic. Sept. 15.-The Rock Island
claim agent today settled TWO threatens
ed suits for damages. On July q the
westbound flyer about midnight killed
thirteen head OF horses and colts be-
longing to Frank Crawford. a farmer
near Anita. 1t was claimed that the
horses had escaped from the pasture
owing TO a defective gate which the
railroad company was maintaining. The
railroad company claimed that some
one passing thru the gate left it open
Lack of proof was probably true in
both cases. At any rate a compromise
was reached and the company paid Mr.
Crawford $500 for his loss.
The company also settled with the
heirs OF young Lester e Harris, who
was recently killed by his horse rum
ing headon into a fast train near At

A REPORT OF THE
CLARkVILLE SPEAKING

J. d. Benson has returned from
GAINESVILLE, where he has been in at
tendance at court. He was present
on the 9Th and heard the candidates
for congress from this district. While
it was Ben L. Griffins appointment
all the candidates were present. The
feature of the occasion was sixty-five
men-farmers, business men, black
smiths and carpenters, representing
all classes of labor and wearing white
ribbons with M. /. Jacoway printed on
them. Everything indicated that it
was purely a Jacoway crowd-Pope
County Record.
AS the speaking above referred to
occurred on the 9th of December, and
this report was published in the Rec
ord last week under date of January
18th, we are at loss to understand its
meaning The fact that it comes so
late looks like it was rather mean
way of trying to depreciate Mr.. Grit
fms chances of success, but the fact
remains that as the Record has stated
that the ribbons were worn by the
Dardanelle boosters, and them only.
Yes, that part of the crowd was a
"Jacoway crowd" But from the date
of the article, we suppose that some
one has just awoke from a Rip Van
l.
was a speaking in Clarksville more
than six weeks ago.-Clarksville Dem

EDITORIAL.
THE BUG UNDER THE CHIP.

When the editorial appearing in the
Log Cabin Democrat in regard to the
senatorial question was written, we
had not received copy of the Beebe
News for January 20. An item APP
pearing in that paper, however, con-
firms the Log Cabin Democrats sus-
picions that the attacks upon Faux
ner county's nominee for state senator
was nothing more than selfish trick
of White county politicians desiring
to create dissatisfaction and by some
hook or crook intrude themselves into
the office The News says
"Since Faulkner county has nomi-
mated, not only stranger to the vot-
ers of the district for state senator,
but man who stands in with the
whiskey ring, there is a strong pres
sure being brought to bear on DR..
w. H. Abingdon of this city, to enter
the race as an opposition candidate
and the doctor informs the News
that he is seriously considering the
question, and will probably announce
his candidacy on a statewide prohibi-
ton platform in the near future. In
asmuch as both Faulkner and White
counties are strongly prohibition, it
looks little funny that Faulkner
county would let the whiskey ring put
up such job on the district. That a
representative man, like DR.. Abing-
ton, the race on a straightout state
wide prohibition platform will easily
win, none will hardly deny.
The News claims to be a Democratic
newspaper. Should DR.. Arlington or
any one else decide to make the race
for state senator on a Statewide pro-
hibition platform" or on any other
platform except the Democratic plat
for, will the News support the nomi-
nee of the Democratic party, or will
it support the other man?

house and neat grounds attract fav-
orable comment from the pasersby
Teachers please send in reports of
the work you are doing.
Too many teachers make excuses
for their inability to do things. There
is always something wrong, they say
We need this law or there are some
other defects that need to be remedied
some way and because things are all
awry they can do so little, seemingly
Their Inability to do things is due to
conditions over which they have no
control is their constant complaint
What nonsense This is but a sure
sign of their weakness and positive
proof of the fact that they are mis-
fit. No matter how poor conditions
may be in the community, the teacher
should take hold of things just as he
finds them, make the most of them,
do the best he can always, cease
grumbling, work earnestly and he
will soon find responsive chord in
the community life Conditions will
improve in proportion to the amount
of faith he has in his work and the
amount of energy he puts into it. Do
not wait for something big to turn
up. Take hold vigorously and turn
big things up yourself-Arkansas

With the Rural
Schools
Mrs. C. H. Nelson Editor.

Almost three months ago we began
our work with an enrolment of eight
cen.
After arranging the work in the
to see what we had to work with. We
found no window shades, no diction-
airy, very few pictures and no play
ground.
We decided to clear off the ground.
The children brought axes, hoes and a
pick for us to do the work with. With
our work and the co-ope ration of the
directors we had the entire school
ground beautifed before Christmas.
Now, we have a smooth playground
and a beautiful grove instead of a
thicket. We feel sure hat with the
cooperation of the directors this
school ground will be fenced before
the close of this year.
On account of the cold weather,
sickness and some moving out of the
district, our attendance since Christ
mas has been very irregular. This
has hindered us from carrying out all
our plans, but with the help of the
patrons we intend to supply window
shades, pictures and a dictionary be-
fore the close of the summer term.
| trust that we can organize
School Improvement Association in
the near future. | believe it would
be beneficial in causing the patrons to
be stricter in sending their children
to school,

THOUSAND NEGROES
IN CAMP PRAY
Tent at Holiness Session, Hutchinson,

Supporters.

Hutchinson. Kan, July 5.-PrObably
no more exciting scene could have
been found anywhere in the country
as the news of Johnson's victory came
over the wires than sat-.tbe- Holiness
camp meeting tent here, where more
than a thousand negroes had gathered
to pray for the black mans victory.
The tent was packed long before the
hour that bulletins from the ringside
could be expected, and fervid individ
ual and congregational praying and
singing were INDUCED in. AS their re-
ports began to come, and it was evi-
dent Johnson had the best of the argu-
ment, the excitement of the congrega-
ton grew and when the news of the
victory came pandemonium fairly
broke loose. The negroes have shown
little inclination to a riot or disorderly
demonstration, but practically all of
them are in a religious fervOr and a
great revival meeting is predicted.
