THE IRON MOUNTAIN AND COT. ONT BELT RAILWAY CONTAIN. IFS ys. PINE BLUFF AND JEF PERSON COUNTY.

T. H. Collier,
 Pine Bluff, Arkansas,
 This company (meaning the St. Louis Southwestern Railway Co., is with you in your opposition to the Free Bridge.
 (S'gned) SAM H. WEST,
 General Attorney.
 The above telegram was no sar- prise to the people of Jefferson coun- ty. Vice-president Clarke, of he St Louis Iron Mountain X Southern rail- way company had already signed against the free bridge for his rail- way company. But the question is, should these two railroad compan es, both of which are controlled by the Goulds, prevent Pine Bluff and Jef- ferson county from having a new sail- road. These two railway companies are not opposed to the building of to the construction of new railroad into Pine Bluff, wh 'ch would give the people Of Jefferson county competi- tion in freight and passenger rates.
 MT. Sam H. West of the St. Louis Southwestern Railway Company now uncovers his hand in order to rally opposition to tnlS enterprise We ad- init that these two railroad companies have had a powerful influence in Ark ansas, sometimes fer good but not always. It has been believed by many that the two above mentioned rail- roads are in a great degree responsi- ble for the failure of formCw efforts of our enterprising citizens to get competing lines or railway into Pine Bluff. It was fumored and believed by many that the Iron Mountain naid the Sawyer X Austin Lumber Com pany double the price of their Mall vern road in order to prevent the Rock Island from. coming into Pine Bluff.
 Pine Bluff will never grow and prosper as she should until the ra'l- read monopoly that now holds her fast in its grip is broken up.

The merry little cat, one day,
Was walking down the street,
Upon his face happy smile
And once In every little while
He sang In accents sweet:
2.
How nice It Is to be cat
With nine delightful lives,
In which TO run around and play,
And romp by night as well az day
I'm glad it's lives, not wives"

Just then a packing box fell down
And squashed him very thin.
A packing box both wide and long

Which really was q sin.

He did not seem alive,
Yet presently We heard him say:
That's four I've lost, but anyway
I've got the other nve!"

ABOUT BULL MOOSE

There was once a country youth
who, when he went TO town to see
his first circus, wandered into
the menagerie tent and here he
gazed with awe at strange ami
mails, the like of which he had
never beheld or even imagined
At last he reached tine enclosure
where the giraff was kept and
there this animal was calmly
standing and never moved a mus
Gle. This was too much for the
boy and he turned to his COM
panion and said, Come on Bill,
Pm going home, there amt no
such animal as that"
Even so with the Bull Moose {:
people who were hypnotized into
believing that that the Bull
Moose was soon to be the Nation
al emblem are turning to their
neighbor and saying, Come on
Bill, and let's go home, there
amt no such animal"

10 TOI

The registration Tuesday in all
the cities in Kentucky must have
been big disappointment to the
Roosevelt followers. From all
sections come reports showing
that the Repu blican party is far
from being q has been" as the
Progressives would have made
believe. The bubble has burst
ed and the Progressive party, as
far as Kentucky is concerned, is
mill.
In Louisville the big fight was
made, and here, where every
newspaper of Importance was
fighting the Republican party
and every effort was made to de-
stroy it, the Republican registra-
tiOn exceeded the Bull Moosers
on the first day of registration.
OF the cities and towns report
ed in the Evening Post in their
Wednesday edition the registra-
tiOn showed that the Progress
iv,s had only about one TO every
ten Republicans outside of Louis
Vile. Here in Barbourville it
was freely predicted by the Pro-
gressives that they out mum Der
the Republicans, and yet they
registered only So, less than the
Democrats who had 76, while the
Republicans had l07. In Mid
dlesboro the percentage was ev
en- greater for here they had only
81 while the Republicans had
377, and in Pineville they only
counted 81 to $50 Republicans.

PROGRESSIVES WEAK

A good idea as the desperate
straights which the Progressives
are in to find candidates to put
out against the regular Republi-
can nominees was evidenced last
week when John ID. White was
nominated by them for Judge of
the Court of Appeals to make
the race against Judge Andrew
j. Kirk of Paintsville. Only two
martyrs could be found who
would do the Abraham and Isaac
act, John ID. White and Theo b.
Blakey, and of the two evils, -
well, we can't blame them much
for choosing White. This only
proves our contention all along,
that the Progressive party III
Kentucky is only Democratic
Aid Society. No one comedies
White an outside chance to win
and the only thing that could
happen would be to detract from
Judge Kinks vote enough to let
q Democrat win.

All Parties Are
For Judge Kirk
SO SAY WE ALL OF US.
Lexington LEADER

>HE Louisville Evening Post offers suggestion which
the Leader gladly endorses. 1t is that all parties
unite in supporting Circuit Judge A. j. Kirk for the
vacancy the Court of Appeals bench caused by the rena
ton of Judge Z. O. ORear which filled temporarily by
appointment of Mr. Robert H. VIM by Wilson
Judge Kirk ideal selection and is of nomination
and election matter what happens Kentucky the Ma
his endorsement by all parties would have good
feet. The Post on this subject
THE retirement of all other candidates
makes certain the nomination by the Republican
party of Judge Andrew j. Kirk, of johnson
county, for the vacancy upon the Kentucky Court
of Appeals to be caused by the retirement of
Judge r. H. VIM in November. Mr.. Kirk is
Circuit Judge and one of the best in Kentucky.
The district is overwhelming Republican that
in this year of certain Republican disaster
the Republican nominee should win easily.
Moreover, Judge Kirk is of the material out of
which Appellate Judges should be made. The
Democratic party will do graceful act in
contestng the election, and Wilson, Taft and
Roosevelt all unite in the promotion of
this Judge"
$50 say all Of u.s." We believe the Leader and Post
express the sentiment of practically the entire district
suggestions offered will be acted upon by the
of the district.
