RAILROADS ARE USING MONEY.

The Graphic stated in Sundays is read trust of Pine Bluff was putting u3 money to defeat the Free Bridge. T. J. Collier, who is also interested in defeating this enterprise, has call
 cd upon us for our evidence. We herewith publish the affidavit of Sidney Veil and w. D. Hearn which
 that the opponents to the bridge arc accepting money from these railroad com panies. But the thing we cannot understand is why it is necessary to undertake to conceal their contribu- tions. There is no reason to conceal any legitimate contribution. There is every reason why the railroads should put up their cash in this fight. If the bridge is built competing line Of railroad will be constructed into Pine Bluff through Jefferson county, the Cotton Belt-Iron Mountain monopoly which now gags and shackles Pine Bluff will beEforever broken. The ques- tion now, MT. Collier, is, how much have these two railroads put up to defeat the Free Bridge. Will you de- ny under oath that they have contrib uted or that they have been consulted ill regard to the fund? Will the rail- road officials deny under oath that they have contributed or contemplate iributing to this opposition fund. or course we do not mean the local ropresentatiyes< of the railroads, mat tcrs of this dare usually taken up in st. Louis or New; York by the head officials. We submit again that those two railroads haye.no right to put up

against it., after Circuit Clerk G. E. Lytlefnad spoken against the amend inent, declaring that t would in no wise be an improvement over the present system of paying princely sums for school books.
 For years and years the Book Trus; has taken from the pockets of our school children thousands and thous- ands of dollars, by a constant chang ing of school books. Fathers and mo- thers in moderate circumstances have been forced to buy expensive books at personal sacrifices that they might give their children the benefit of a common school education. Here is the amendment that MT. Collier voted to oppose:
 An act providing for the election hy vote of the teachers of the S ate of a Text Book Commission, whose duty shall be to adopt a uniform system of text books for use in the common schools of the state Where such books are con racted for with publish CTS other than the state they may be sold by dealers at margin profit fix ed by the Commission, and where published by the state they shall be distributed by the county examiners and the coun'y superintendents. The commission to be compoed of six members.
 The act says that the state shal1 furnish children with a uniform text book tat the cost of printing and dis trlbuton and where they are sold by dealers, the margin of profit shall be fixed by your own teachers. Which do you prefer, Mir. Taxpayer, the School Book Trust or your own teachers?
 MT. Collier and his associates pre- fer the Book Trust? Why? Are the, the agents of the Octopus that merci- lessly deprives your children of 6 common school education unless you pay tribute to it?
 There is an old saying that you cal fcol all of the people sometimes and some of the people all the time, but you can't fool all of the people all o1 the time
 MT. Collier claims to have the in teresj of the poor man, the small tax payer and the farmer at heart in opposing the Free Bridge. Has he shown this to be his motive in oppos- Ing the Text Book Commission amend ment? We shall not answer the question. We shall leave it with vou to decide for yourselves.

MORE THAN S2,OOO,OOO
 IN THE STATE VAULTS
BUT THERE IS LESS THAN S500,000 TO TIE GREDiT OF THE GEN
 ERAL REVENUE FUND.
Seventy Sheyiifs Have Settled lfiil. the State-.Big Sum in
 Pension Fund.

Little Rock, Ark, Aug. 6.-After almost seventy sheriffs from the coun- ties of this state have made their set dement's with tne state treasurer, there is now in the strong box of the state $2,1S1532.71, representing the payments for the ten different funds into which the states revenue is dl- vided.
 As yet, according to the members of the sta e treasurer's force, it is not known just what sheriffs have not made their settlements, put it is known that there are at least six who have not made final settlements. Some of that number, however, have made partial settlements, while the others have apparently made no attempt to report.
 A sheriff has 15 days after his re- port is approved by the county court of his county to settle with the state treasurer, and if he fails to do so within that time warrant is issued for him, and he is brought in 10 ex- i plain his delinquency.
 However, it is not thought that any such means will have to be resorted to this year, an affair of this kind being very seldom, and there is no set date on which all the sheriffs must SC tie.
 Ii the county courts adjourn over for few weeks, then the sheriff is delayed in making his settlement, as his report cannot ae certified unless approved by the county court. Gen erally the majority of the county courts approve the reports of the sheriifs about July 8, but there are always some of them who adjourn over before that time without ap- proving the repor S, and therefore many of the officers are thrown be- hind in making settlements.
 It is thought that before long all the settlements will he made and the entire report of State Treasurer John w. Crockett will be ready.
 tained in each are as follows:
