Railroad connections in order that ii may be in touch with the trade terri tory tributary to it.
 Cities are made by surrounding ter ritOry and unless a city can get in touch with its natural territory it can. not derive the proper benefit from that source.
 Pine Bluff is well located to be a commercial center of vast importance We must place Pine Bluff on the map, so to speak.
 With the building of the two rail. roads into Pine Bluff and especially the one that will bring the Free Bridge across tic Arkansas river at this point, Pine Bluff will enjoy a boom such as it has never. experienced in its history.
 How anyone interested in the growth of our city can oppose or fail to cO-Oper>se in securing these need cd public enterprises, we are at d loss to understand. We ask all of these who are opposed to it or who failed to sign the petition for the Free Bridge to ponder oyer tlle prop OsitiOn and We feel sure that after mature reflection they will realize that the benefits to be derived wiIA be of inestimable benefit to our city and county L%nd it's citizens.
 Don't permit yourself to be misled by statements that are misleading, for the Bridge Commissioners will gladly show you ''in black and white, the ac- tuaI expenditures necessary for the erection of tile Free Bridge and the income that will follow for the coun- ty in later years. Let HIS drop petty uIHeTeIiceS anue unIted, Hhke a coll certed effort to bring Pine Bluff and Jefferson county to position where they rlghtfulIy belong.
 Enterprise and capital will bring work to the laboring man, increase the value of city property and farm lands, open you d market for your products and increase the business of every jobebr and retailer in our city and county. We make all of our peo pie prosperous, but in order to do this we must build the Free Bridge.

TEXAN ATTACKS
 " ". ). BRYAN REPRESENT ATHVE DIES CALLS HIM A "DiSCREDITED DEMi-
 GOGUE" IN SPEECH.
WAS BLACK LISTED
Says Speaker Clark and Representa-. tive Underwood Real Leaders
 of Democratic Party.

Washington, Feb. 10.-A scathin@ attack upon William Jennings Bryan by Representative Martin Dies, a Tex as Democrat, startled the House to- day. The Texas representative char acterized the three times presidential candidate as a "discredited demago- gue." and delivered on the whole one of the most vitrolic speeches ever lev eled at one Democrat by another.
 MT. Dies on the qus sstion of person. al privilege before the debate on the Army appropriation bilf, which was resumed. In the current issue of Bry- ans paper, The Commonsr, appeared black list of thirteen Democrats, whom Bryan declared to be unworthy of the confidence of their constitu- ents because. of their adverse votes on the Cullop resolution.
 The Cullop resolution provides that the president must make public the name of those endorsed candidates fer the bench, and MT. Dies with twelve other Democrats opposed 1t.
 MT. Bryan's insinuations that 1 am a servant of predatory iaterests,' said Representative Dies, "and his state ment that I cannot be trusted to rep resent a Democratic constituency, are but the harmless vaporings of dis credited demogague. I neither fear his power nor respect his judgment Bryan has led the Democrats to three successive defeats and like the Bour- bons of old he has learned nothing and forgotten nothing.'
 Mr. Dies declared that Speaker Clark and Representative Underwood were the real leaders of the Democratic party and this caused an ovation for both of these Democrats He round- ly censured Bryan for attempting 10 "sow seeds of discord'' in the Demo- cratic party.
 Solicitor McCabe, of the Department of Agriculture, appeared b:fore the House Committee Investigating the everglades controversy. He entered a denial that the Department had been influenced by land promoters in sup pressing reports on the drained lands of Florida. The investigation prop CT will be begun Tuesday.

to comparative trials made by the
Danish government this valuable root
cropped as follows per acre:

containing 1918 pounds of dry matter
at 81. 80 per hundred pounds amount

Mammoth long red so, $50 pounds of

amounting to $82. &c. Showing a
difference varying from $40 to 1913 per

Thus it is very apparent that this
splendid root is far superior to any

Remarkable New Mangel.

This most wonderful mangel has
been awarded first class certificate
several times by the Danish govern
ment which is the highest honor at
tanned In agricultural circles in
Denmark And to obtain this special
certificate is a very difficult under
taking.
Sludstrup is long reddish yellow
root but not so long as the Mammoth
long red. 1t grows more above the
ground and is very easily harvested,
requiring but little exertion to pull
same. The sizes of the roots like all
other varieties depend entirely upon
circumstances they are frequently
grown to a size weighing from Is to
20 pounds each. The Danish farmers
prefer to grow them smaller, viz, six
to ten pounds each which is accom-
plished by not allowing SO much space
in and between the rows. The small
roots contain higher percentage of
dry matter, consequently the crop is
more valuable than if large roots are
grown.
According to comparative trials
made by the Danish Agricultural
Society Sludstrup cropped as follows
per acre: sSa@sFs5
Seventeen more roots than Mann
moth long red; % per cent more dry
matter than Mammoth long red; %
per cent more roots than Golden
Tankard; % per cent more dry matter
