Advocates a Horticultural Society.

Sam McMahan was in town Saturday and called on The Tribune to tell us that there is quite lively sentiment out his way in favor of the organiza- tion of a local horticultural society,"
 Several orchardists in the eastern portion of the county are making in- quiries in earnest about spraying and other questions that interest people who have something at stake in the way of raising apples. He says Jesse Meek, Monroe Dunlap, c. M. Craw- ford, Clay Naples and quite few others would take hold of an enterprise of this kind. Sam thinks that horti- cultural organization would not only be a great benefit to the individuals but the move would be a healthy one for this section of the country, in all of which he is eminently correct We need many more men in this country like Sam MaMahan. You seldom find an old-timer as enthusiastic and enter prising as he is.
 MT. McMahan requests us to an- nounce meeting at Coin for Tuesday night, March 19, to which all fruit growers of this section are invited I The purpose of the meeting is to at least take steps looking to the or ganization of horticultural society.
 He declares that the growers lost more than half the price of their ap- pies marketed last fall by not being organized, so to have been able to have negotiated the sale of the apples to an advantage.
 The suggestion is made by Mir. Me Mahan that a general meeting of growers be planned some time during the spring and have L. w. Gipple, one of Benton county's most success ful growers, present and deliver an ad- dress. Mr. Gipple grew and shipped out thirty cars of apples last season, which indicates that he is able to give some good advice along the line of fruit growing. MT. Gipple has con- sented to attend such a meeting here as soon as the rush of spring work is over.
 There are organizations at Harrison and Leslie that would be glad to meet and cooperate with the growers in this section.

TOWNS AND VILLAGES
 EUREKA SPRINGS.

City Finances. The immense ex- pense necessarily incurred in street improvement, and in prosecuting the litigation to secure title to the territory upon which the city is built, have severely taxed its resources. Pro- hibited from issuing bouds by the State Constitution, and from assessing a tax higher than certain rate, inadequate to provide sufficient revenue, the city council was forced to the unfortunate expedient of issuing city warrants at from 50 to 85 per cent. less than their face value. The amount of outstand- ing warrants April IS, 1882, was S7l, 651. 24; April 1, 1883, $75, ,815. 30, the revenue for the intervening period be- ing $36, 679.10. This is a summary of the financial condition at the close of the first year of the city government. Much of the indebtedness had been incurred without adequate returns, and in 1883 the board of aldermen made an effort to effect compromise with with the holders of the scrip" It was partially successful; but Samuel Ashley, the holder of warrants approx mating $46, 900, declined to compromise on the terms proposed by the city, and instituted proceedings in the United States District Court for the recovery of his claim. The case is still undecid- ed. Exclusive of this claim, the city in- debtedness April 1. 1884, was $38, 066. 45, and has not been materially reduced.
 The Townsite Land Litigation. = Since 1879, and during the period of most rapid growth, public interest and the attention os the municipal authori- ties have been centered upon this sub ject, one of vital importance to every citizen. The large population which arrived in 1879, and the succeeding two other years, were of that class gene rally termed "squatters. The first arrivals staked off their locations, and the Basin Spring was the center around which village indications were first ap- parent. The committee elected in September, 1879, was charged with the duty of adjudicating difforonce between rival claimants; they authori
 zed the surveyor, Maj, Armstrong, to lay off lots forty feet square upon the different streets as they were laid out, and through the autumn, as fast as lots were numbered, claimants appeared with the fee of $1, and received from the surveyor a record of entry in the following form;
 Eureka Springs, Section No. 15, Township 20, Range 26 west, Carroll county, Arkansas, Lot, No.-, west side of street, taken by-.
