 CROP REPORT
Object of State Meeting To Be x. Held In Capital Sep
 tember 30.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Sept. &O.-The farmers of Arkansas are deeply interested in the call that has been issued for mass meeting to be held in Little Rock Sep tember 30, atthe same time that similar meetings are to be held throughout the cotton growing states: These meetings are pri- marily a protest against the pre- diction of record-breaking crop, which it is contended, is not borne out by the facts.
 Tn issuing the call, Gov. Dona- ghey declares that to the best of his information, the crop will not exceed 9OO,OOO bales, which would be worth more at l5 cents a pound than ss660, ,OOO bale crop 10 cents a pound.
 The Farmers Union has is- sued call for a mass-meeting of farmers, bankers and merchants at the same time, and all will meet together in an effort to de wise ways and means for realiz- ing the most from the crop that is being grown under adverse conditions.
 These calls have been issued in compliance with the sugges- tion of the Cotton Congress re gently held at Montgomery, Ala To put into effect the holding movement inaugurated at that time, for 15 cents, is to De the object of the meeting, and those back of it believe that with 3 proper concert of action thls may be accomplished.

Populist Party Gone.

Special to Independent
 Little Rock, Sept. 2O.-Among the callers at the capital was R. B. CarlLee, of England, who was one of the leaders of the Populist party when it was thriving in the state. He says that the Populist party has gone out of business in Arkansas.
 tI believe that the citizen should vote every time he gets a chance" said Mir. CarlLee, and vote for whatever is best. At the present time, the Demo- cratic party offers the best op- portunity for good government, as it contains more of the Pop ulist principles, with the excep- tion of government ownership of the railroads and the finan- cial policies.

JUDGES RETURN FROM VACATIONS
Supreme Court Will Resume
 Session Next Monday.

Little Rock, Sept. 20. Mem bers of the supreme court are assembling from their summer vacations, ready for the opening of court. next Mon- day. Associate Justice Jesse Hart arrived Sunday night from Mt. Nebo, where he spent the months of July and August. Judge Hart did not plan any va cation trip on account of the se- rious illness of his sister, who was suffering from a lingering attack of typhoid fever. He was at her bedside much of the time during the court recess.
 Judge w. F. Kirby is also one. of the latest to return. having spent ntt}fe the summer in the deer haunts near Texarkana. He covered himself with glory as a Nimrod, however, and during the hot days was a member of a party that bagged seven fine deer. One of them was said to be the largest buck ever killed in that section of the state. Judge Kirby explained that the reason he did not remember his friends in the capital city with a quarter of venison was because the weather was so hot during the hunt that the ice could not be used in refrigerating venison for shipment; it had to be used to keep the ammunition cool.
 Sunday night Judge Frauen- thai came in from Conway, where he has been much of the past two months. Chief Justice McC ,llocl. is also here now. Judge Wood stayed in Little Rock during the vacation season, with a little side trip now and then by way of recreation.
 The present week will be used in settling down to work again, arranging briefs and transcripts for consideration and preparing generally for the busy weeks ahead after the 25th instant. Several important cases, both state and civil. will engagn the attention of the court during the fall term.

Pests Not Army Worms.

Van Buren, Sept. 19.It now develops that the worms that have been devastating the cot ton fields of Crawford county are not the army worms, as gen. orally reported, but cotton worm that was bred in the cot ton fields in which they have done so much damage. Many cotton growers report having found them in the center of their fields first, and invariably when first discovered they were very small and quickly develop ed in size corresponding closely with the army worm. While the pest first appeared in the heavy river bottom lands, reports show that there is not cotton field in the county that has not been

Cook Attends Congress.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Sept. 20. State Superintendent George 5. Cook is attending the National Con- servation Congress which is now in session at Kansas City. He is one of the five delegates ap- pointed to represent the Nation al Conservation Congress. One of the things which Superin- tendent Cook believes particu- larly in conserving is the time and energy of the youth. He is one of the most original and most active advocates of a seven grade school course, instead of eight grades, to fit the boys and girls for he High school.
 As superintendent of the Hot Springs schools he had reduced his theory to a working system with seven grades, and three classes in each grade, each class being within reviewing distance of the next. By this method promotions were constant and the apt pupil need never be held back for the slower study.

TOLL BRIDGE OVER
 WHITE RIVER
Sol Heinemann Would Organize
 Stock Company To Construct Bridge At Newport.

While Incorporation of bridg- ing White River at Newport is dismissed without much thought by many people on the ground that it would be too expensive and out of our financial reach at the present time. one of our prominent merchants, Sol Hein- emann is firmly convinced that Newport citizens and Oil Trough bottom land owners can and should cooperate in providing this great improvement and con- convenience.
 While the cost of such a pro feet has been variously estimat- ed from $125, ,0OO to $25O, ,000, MT. Heinemann has given the matter considerable investiga- tion and believes that a draw bridge can be- constructed for $75,OOO to S8O.Q090.
 Mr. 4efnemann has received pledges from a number of pro- gressive citizens that they would take stock in such com pany and if every business man and Oil Trough land owner who can afford to make such an in- vestment will subscribe stock, Newport will have bridge over White River that will open up and develope her trade relations with one of the richest agricult- Enral sections of the state.
 The bridge stock should be a A0aying investment from Ls,s ,sfor the Newport fer

CAT THAT DID NOT COME BACK

Tom drew close. close enough to

mount launching upon its prey. Tom

off the wall and into the den OF Sill

Hunger had apparently made Tom
reckless. Into the bear den he sprang,
and skurried across the floor after the
rat. And then Silver King took part
In the chase. The keepers say that
probably Silver King only wished to
play. But after the cat, which was
after the rat. went the big polar bear.
And into the cave of Silver King
went the three animals.
A moment passed, and out from the
cave ran the rat. The cat was close
behind. Silver King was still bringing
up the rear. but gaining fast.
At the edge Of the bear tank the
chase ended. One OF Silver Kings
big paws came down squarely upon
poor Toms back. and Toms nine lives
passed out in a twinkling. The rat,
Of course, escaped. One Of the keep

friends paid exorbitant prices for
some of the stun and Underwood
pocketed the money, forgetting to ac-
count to the owners for the sums they
brought. The dealers demanded resti-

dreading exposure, had to- hustle
around to raise enough money to
