Bryan needs city government that
will bend every energy to lifting the
town out of the mud. Now when we
say this, don't anybody get mad and
tear their hair, for it is not intended
as a criticism at all. We also know
that such a thing is easier said than
done What we want is a start made
that will never stop until the thing is
finished.

daily, and the love and reverence held
 by her little pupils will last through life. She is charming woman, and though since her sojourn in Forrest City, she has for the most part been a busy one, she Is nevertheless quite a social favorite and numbers as her friencs every one with whom she has come in contact, or who had the pleasure of her acquaintance. She is true daughter of the South, a de- scendant of its proudest and best aris- tocracy, an aristocracy not alone of birth and lineage, but of true innate goodness and worth as we'll. She is altogether charming woman and a delightful companion for the fortu- nate young man who has been lucky enough to win her for his companion on lifes journey.
 The groom Mir. Henry Alyan Mentz, is native of louisiana, aud up un- til about year ago, when he moved to Memphis and established business relations there, he had been a resi- dent of New Orleans He is con sulting electrical engineer, and is sober, steady and industrious young man, who i'll his chosen profession is rapidly forging ahead, and promising a career of marked success. He comes from an old op;c;appa fon,;Iy o,l though a stranger 10 most of our people, has become known to several during his visits here in making an examination of the City Water X Light plant, in his official capacity as consulting engineer. He is well quail fled 10 care for and cherish the fair woman who has chosen to honor him with her heart and hand.
 Immediately after the ceremony the newlyweds and the bridal party were driven to the home of the bride, where a reception was held, after which they were driven in autos to the Rock Island depot, where they took the 20 train for Memphis and points in Eastern Tennessee, where they will spend brief honeymoon, after which they will be at home at 302 South Lauderdale street in Memphis.

INTERESTING LETTER.
Written by Forrest City Young Lady. Tells of WOndr0us Trip Through
 Natures Wonderland.

Herewith we print parts of letter telling in enthusiastic language of the wondrous sights seen by two For rest City young ladies on their trip to Fernley, Nevada, and to points of interest in the western country. The letter from which the extracts are taken was written to Mir. J. NJ Davis. father of the young ladies, and was written primarily for home consump- tion, though the editor was permit ted chance to read it, and copy the following extracts:
 First of all, we saw some of the prettiest farming country ever hope to see, through Missouri and Kansas. We went from Memphis to Kansas City, on limited train, and believe me, it went some, and then too, it had an observation car attached. Then we stopped in Colorado Springs, and here we found an indescribably beautiful city. We went to the An lers Hotel for breakfast and this ho- tel we found in keeping with other beauties of that city. After having breakfast, we interviewed Mir. Lacy, who has an office in this hotel, and from whom any kind of conveyance can be engaged for sight seeing. He made up an auto party of five, and at II o'clock we started on what is known, as the west drive. This takes you through Colorado City. which was once Colorado Springs Then we went to and explored the little one room log house, which was once the capitol of Colorado. From there we went on up to Manitou, had lunch and drank both the sulphur and soda waters. You can engage here fiat or whole house. and spend just as long as you wish. From there we went to the Cave of the Winds It is said that the electric lighting of this place is the most wonderful in the world. Here you see stalsgmites of every description. Then We went through the Bridal Chamber and came back through the Garden of the Gods, which is very interesting, but not so much as 1 expected. We re- turned about o'clock, then took the drive out through Stratton Park and then on out to the Seven Falls We got back to Mrs. cWhinney's and had dandy supper and afterwards went with Miss Lacy, her married sister and husband, and some other friends to Stratton Park, where we danced until lO:30 o'clock. Here they have as lovely a dance hall as ever you saw, just for tourists.
 ''The next morning we went sight seeing until 12:45, then took the train for Salt Lake City, and on this trip we met gentleman from Missouri, who had to be shown. He was going to Winnemucca, just few miles from

Price of Cotton.

Ihe President of the National Far mer's Union appears to be of opinion that the farmers of this country can control the price of cotton, but in this he iS mistaken.
 The prices of all products and the wages of all labor are regulated by whoever controls the volume of the currency
 In other words, as President Gar held wisely said, "Whoever controls the volume of the currency is abso- lute master of all industry and all commerce.
 Under the British system of finance, which opposeaail paper currency, ex- cept bank notes convertible into coin upon demand, the control of the volume of the currency is in the hands of private banking corpora tions: but under the American sys. tenn of finance established by our Colonial ancestors before the Revo- lutionary war, the control of the volume of the currency was in the hands of the Colonial governments.
 Daniel Webster said that "The British system of finance is the most ingenious device which has ever been invented to fertiize the rich man S field with the sweat of the poor mans  brow;' and Herbert Spencer, the great English philosopher, on his last visit 10 this country in 1883, said in one of his speeches that "The Ameri- can people will have 10 go ta,k to the American system of finance before they can go forward. v
 Speaking of the happy condition of our Colonial ancestors in America un- der the American system of finance, Edmund Burke said in the British Parliament that Nothing in the lis, tory of the world is like their pro- gress.
 Government loans of legal tender treasury notes to the people on real estate security at low rate of in- terest was the distinguishing charac- teristic of the American system of finance, and the efforts of the British Parliament to destroy it, was the principal cause of the Revolutionary war, as Judge Bradley has clearly shown in an opinion delivered by him in the U S. Supreme Court in one of the Legal Tender Cases.
 Our National Constitution says Congress shall have power to coin money and regulate the value there of. But the value of money can not be regulated except by controlling the volume of the currency, and this power should be exercised by Congress for the benefit of the people, and not by private banking corporations for the benefit of the wealthy classes alone.
