The law of supply and demand
cuts quite a figure in the high
cost of living. For example, last
year the potato crop was short
and they sold on the local mar
ket for $3 90 per bushel. This
year there is an abundance of
potatoes and they are worth but
so cents per bushel.

A subscriber tells US that it
seems that when the Times man
runs out of anything to print he
seems to just jump on the good
roads question. True enough,
but is there any secular subject
of more Importance before the
people today than the roads?
Morals, temperance and educa-
ton alone can compare with the
subject of good roads. These
are receiving their attention,
then why not the roads?

The Difference.

There is vast difference be-
tween the platforms adopted by
the Republicans at Chicago and
the Democrats at Baltimore. The
Republican platform is thorough
~ reactionary and standpat. 1t
prates about protecting Ameri-
can wOrkmen," and "maintain-
ing the American standard of
wages" when every citizen
knows that both of these are
shams and hypocracies. The
Republican platform also is e.
vasive, so that in the remote e.
vent Of Republican success, it
it could be interpreted it any
way the high tariff bosses might
want it interpreted.
The Democratic platform on
the other hand, is specific and
definite. 1t promises, not to
'revise the tariff" but to "re-
wise it downward" Here, brief
ly, are some of the important
promises in the Democratic doc.
ument.
IA tariff for revenue only.
Immediate revision downward.
Trust controlled products to 60
on the free list.
2-Civll and criminal prosecu.
ton of trusts. Laws to stop mo-
nopOly and stock watering. A
mendment to make the Sherman
law effective.
"a demand for the ratitica-
ton of the amendments for an
income tax and direct election Of
senators.
4-Publicity for all recOmmen-
dations on which Presidential
appointments are made also for
all campaign funds in national
elections.
5-Presidential primaries and
popular election of national COM
lnitteemen. Use of money by
corporations at elections to be
made unlawful.
"a single term for Pres
Ident.
7-Surervision of railroad,
telegraph, telephone and express
rates.
S-Revision of the banking
laws to prevent concentration
aud misuse of money. No gov
ernment deposits in favored
banks.
Claws to improve the rivers
and prevent floods.
lO-Restriction of the judicia-
ry to its proper functions.
ll-Phillippine independence.

rect contempt. Parcels post and

Flour has been held almost to
the tOp-notch of high prices, oc-
casioned, it was claimed by the
men who had the wheat ip con-
troll, on account of the poor wheat
crop in sight, but all of sudden
the outlook for wheat is much
better and prices have dropped
way down. Just as we expected,
when the millers and spectators
have to buy wheat from the
farmers, the price is always low
and the crop bOuntiful, but after
it gets into the hands of the 9TH
er fellows, wheat goes up as does
flour and the consumer must pay
the high price for his flour made
from the wheat the farmer sold
at low price.

new Train STOPS
HERE; ON MONDAY
FAST SCHEDULE ADOPTED
T w E N TY HOURS RUNNING
TIME FROM HOT SPRINGS TO
KANSAS CITY.

Reports that the new fast train to
be put in service between Hot Springs
an Kansas City would not stop at
Conway were put at an end today by
the receipt of an official circular an
nouncing the train, by Station Agent
}. W. James of this city. The new
train, for which 20-hour schedule
between the two cities has been pre-
pared, will make, however, only three
stops between Little Rock and Van
Buren, at Conway, Russellville and
Morrilton.
The exact schedule has not yet been
announced, except as to the time of
arrival and departure at the termi-
mails. The south-bound train, to be
known as No 19, Will leave Kansas
City at 6:20 p. m. and arrive at Hot
Springs at 2:30 p. m. the following day.
This will make the train pass through
Conway about 11:30 a. m. The north
bound train, No. 20, will leave Hot
Springs at 11:30 a. m. and arrive at
Kansas City at 1880 a. m. the follow
ing day, which means that it will pass
through Conway between 2 and 2.3O
p. m. A new time-card will become eff
fective Sunday, but the new train Will
not leave its terminals until Monday.
The first south-bound train will not,
therefore, pass through Conway until
Tuesday morning, while the first
north-bound train will stop here Mon
day afternoon.
The equipment of the new train, it
IS stated, will be equal to the best now
operated on the main lines of the Mis-
sour Pacific. By the new schedule the
time between Hot Springs and Kansas
City will be reduced over four hours.
The circular received by Mr.. James
announces that the sleeping car SER
vice on trains No. 103 and 1O4 will be
discontinued between Little Rock and
Coffeyville, Kan. 1t is presumed that
the Pullmans on Nos. 105 and LOG,
the night trains, will be allowed to re-
main.
The new service will give patrons
between Little Rock and Fort Smith
four passenger trains daily each way,
besides local freight each day except
Sunday, which also carries passen-
gers. 1t will thus be possible for per-
sons here to spend an hour in Little
Rock in the middle of the day and be
away from home only about three
hours. The service, in fact, will be
almost equivalent to interurban traf-
fic and will place the towns along the
Fort Smith road in much closer touch
with the capital city.

DECIDE AGAINST
. PURCHASE OF FARM

Little Rock, Jan. 25.-The peniten-
tiary board has postponed indefinitely
the proposition for the purchase of a
second state farm upon which to en-
ploy the white convicts. When the in
stitution is from two to six months in
debt all the time, it cannot consider
taking on further obligations of so
great magnitude as another farm
would entail. At present the board is
receiving from the Reaves contract
about enough to meet current bills.
There is an unadjusted asset in a
pending suit against Dick Raleigh,
former contractor, and his bondsmen,
for about $4,000, which has been set
for hearing N Pulaski circuit court
about the first of April. He claims
various offsets, however, and the
judgment that may be secured against
him is rather problematical.

receiving many encouraging reports
from all over the state, from those

ing here February 14-15. Men of ma
tional prominence in road construc-
ton, officers of the good roads bureau
at Washington, and good roads lead
ers of Arkansas will be present and
deliver addresses. Delegates are be-
ing appointed by the county judges,
and each road overseer is considered a
delegate ex-oficio. Many have al
ready written that they will attend.
A strong effort will be made in the
next legislature to increase the eff
cheney of our present road laws.

this. The first application will stop

CITY POLITICS
WAKING WARM

Municipal politics continues to be
the subject of uppermost interest in
Conway and apparently grows warm
er each day. Up to the present time
there are four candidates for mayor.
two for marshal, and one each for re-
corder and treasurer. Almost a doz-
en- are either active or prospective
candidates for the position of alder
men, and the list of the latter seems
likely to increase rather than dimin-
ish as the tine for the primary draws
nearer. In the First ward there are
four candidates for alderman, w. J

Hartley and Prof. A. J Meadors In
the Second ward the names of three,

Little Rock, Jan. 25.-For the first

in Little Rock yesterday were forced
to pay so cents per dozen for eggs.
Wholesale houses received 33 1-3 cents
per dozen from the grocers.
"The present high price of eggs is
not due to the fact that anybody is

hibitive prices, which are the highest
in years in this city, are due to the

SAYS COMPlN
Is BACK OF PIPE
WYCkOFF MEETS BOARD
ASSURES THEM THAT WOODEN
MAINS Will LBE MADE PER
FECTLY GOOD.

That the Wyckof Pipe Company is
standing ben nd Contractor Joseph
McCoppin and will make the wooden
mains of the Conway waterworks sys-
TEN absolutely perfect, regardless of
expense, was the assurance given the
board Of improvement by President G.
w. Wyckoff at conference here yes
terday afternoon. Mr., Wyckoff de-
.clared that when the repair work was
pronounced complete he wanted the
system subjected to the most rigorous
tests and after its acceptance, if it
developed during the first year of op-
GRAFTON that any leaks or defective
pipe had been overlooked, his company
would make all necessary repairs
without any expense to the district.
While the board of improvement is,
of course, looking only to their con-
tractor, Mr.. McCoppin, to make the
job good in every respect, the evident
good faith of Mr. Wyckoff in the mat

them and made them more secure in
the belief of the success of the sys-
tcm.
Mr.. Wyckoff informed the board
that his company had been manufact-
uring this pipe since 1855 and that the
Conway system was the first in which
any serious trouble had been expert
enced in the way of leaks. eve fur
nished the pipe for a system in New
York state which was finished only a
few weeks ago." he said, "and when
the pressure of 120 pounds was turned
on only three leaks developed in the
entire system of about $4,000 feet. In
niy" home town of Elmira, N. Y, wood
en- mains wound for 40-pound pressure
were laid in 1862, the pipe being
among the first we manufactured.
There were never any leaks or trouble
of any kind with the mains during
period of nearly so years. Last year,
however, it was decided to install an
additional reservoir and increase the
pressure to 80 pounds, and few of
the 50-year-old mains then had to be
taken OUT
Mr.. Wyckoff was asked if wooden
pipe had not proved failure and been
taken out in some towns. "That is
perhaps true" he said, "but it is not
true of the Wyckoff pipe. We are not
the only manufacturers of wooden
pipe by any means, and it is possible
that inferior pipe made by others has
proved to be failure"
The board of improvement was as
sured that the entire system would be
ready for operation within about 10
days or two weeks # bad weather does
not interfere. A crew of II men are
now at work laying new mains where
defective pieces have been discovered
and stopping pin-hole leaks in other
places. It is understood that when the
work is pronounced complete, the wat
er supply of all of the 80 or more con
sumers WI be shut off, the pipes and
the reservoir filled to its capacity and
left to stand for "a or more hours,
so that the exact leakage can be deter
mined. 1t is declared that the max
mum leakage will not exceed five per
cent and will probably run as low as
two per cent.
