ROCK CITY
 PRIMARY ELECTION

Little Rock, Jan. 11.-Brass bands last night paraded the streets calling attention to the fact that there was to be a city Democratic primary to day. They were out in the inter est of different candidates for city at torney and were it not for this one race and the fact the saloons are closed there would be little today which would make a person think about cleo ton. Carriages bearing those banners of the different candidates for city at torney are the only ones out as there is practically no opposition anywhere elce, with the exception of the eighth ward, where two candidates are fight ing for the place made vacant by R. C. Powers, who is now running for city attorney.

LAFAYETTE SENDS FOUR.

Little Rock, Jan. 11.-Lafayette county was the contributor to the state penitentiary colony yesterday, sending in two whites and two blacks. Solomon Lord, grand larceny, and JoAhn Simpson, assault to kill, both white, with one year to serve, were the whites, and Osborne Anderson, one year for grand larceny, and Will Wiley, three years for robbery, were the two negroes. The commitments which came with the men did not bear the court seal nor were they signed by the clerk, but the convicts were placed in stripes and to work digging poles for new penitentiary electric light line before night. The commit ments were sent back to be corrected. The prisoners would not have been accepted with the faulty commitments, but they were anxious to get inside the walls and begin the service of the sentences, and they would not lost sev- eral days if they waited for them to be corrected.

ROADS GETTING BAD.

Reports from the rural districts of the county are to the effect that the public roads are in a worse condition than they have been for several years. The series of snows accompanied by deep freezes and followed by the thaw, have so softened the roads that the traffic is badly cutting them up. The present winter is the hardest the coun- ty has experienced in about five years and for the several winters past the roads remained in good condition throughout the winter.

Grain Opinions,

Bartlett, Patten & Co.: Considering
the enormous selling pressure which
was put on the market, we consider
that prices have held their own pretty
well. Warmer weather is needed be-
fore much of a break in prices can
be expected.
Clement Curtis & Co.: We still adj
wise selling on all hard spots. I'm
favorable corn weather is still coun-
teracted by the large stock and the
fact that the season is not too late
to make a good crop on replanting.
5. B. Chaplin & Co. Think short
sales of September wheat preferable to
July. Corn for the present is entirely
dependent upon weather conditions.
Shearson, Hamill & Co.: The decline
In wheat in foreign markets has been
about equal to our own decline and
our prices are still relatively about as
high as they were before the break
started. Support, however, is not so
good nor so confident as it was at 10
cents higher. 1t still looks like lower
prices for wheat.

numbers by Dudley Buck, On the Sea,

much favorable comment, in fact it
was generally conceded that it was the
