WEEKLY COTTON REVIEW

New York, March NO great
change has occurred i'm the cotton
market during the past week. and
trading has been generally ouiet. Con
tinucd reports OF favorable progress
with new crop preparations. and the
faiiuro OF spot demand to become more
active. have given rather a bearIsb

prices have lost ground slightly. with

level offerings have come partly from
the south, but chiefly from the larger
centres, 1t is claimed. and there is y
tendency in trade circles 10 attributc

the trading has formed tho basis for
assertions that while the mills ara

to their already generous supply. tbev

SEEK 10 PREVENT
 PHONE RATE RAISE
APPEAL TO CITY COUNCIL
THAT BODY WILL BE ASKED TO TAKE STEPS TO STOP REIN
 TAI INCREASE.

At tonight's meeting the Conway city council will be asked by a number of subscribers to take steps to pre- vent the Southwestern Telephone & Telegraph Go. from raising the rental rates as was recently announced by the company, from 50 to 75 cents on each phone. The new rates, unless some means is found to prevent, will be put into effect on Sept. l.
 Secretary G. L. Banner of the Board of Trade states that an in formal protest on behalf of the board was made to the company some weeks ago, but the officials declared the rates were not unreasonable and not higher than those in effect in other towns of the same population and same number of telephones. A promise was made, Secretary Banner states, to furnish the Board of Trade with a list of those places with the rates charged, but this data has not yet been SUD- piled.
 It is the opinion Of some attorneys that the city council has the right to fix maximum charges for telephone

TOWNSHIP CONTEST PROVES ATTRACTIVE
THREE ALREADY ENTERED
PRIZE OF S10O IN GOLD AT COUNTY FAIR MAY DRAW
 MANY EXHIBITORS.

Three townships-Eagle, Palarm and Cypress-have already informed the officers of the Faulkner County Fair Association that they expect to compete for the prize of $1OO in gold, offered to the township making the best display in the agricultural de- partment of the county fair, October 7-10, according to Manager J. A. King. It is believed that almost every township, except Cadron, which is barred from competing, will enter the contest within the next few weeks. Those that have not yet organized for this purpose are requested to do so at once and notify the manager so that he can prepare booths for them
 "The agricultural, livestock and poultry exhibits at the county fair in October will be double those of any previous year." said Manager King today. Already more entries have been promised in these departments than have ever been exhibited at any pre- vious fair.
 "The Faulkner county fair has come to stay, said MT. King. "There is no longer any question as to wheth- CT we shall have a fair. 1t is a permo- nent institution and every farmer in Faulkner and adjacent counties should feel that it is their fair, and commence at once to select something to bring or send to it.
 Remember, exhibits in the agr'cul- tural and ladies departments will be received at the managers office in the Martin building, next to the railroad, 10 days before the opening day of the fair. Get them ready and bring or send them in and they will be proper ly entered and cared for.
 'The management desires to thank the people of the county for their loy- atty to the fair in the past and cor dially invite them to attend again this year and help to make this the great est county fair in the south.
 Faulkner county always has the best of everything and the people of Faulkner county never fail in any en- terprise they undertake.'

A WAY OUT
RESIDENT OF CONWAY SHOWS THE WAY.

There's one effective way to relieve kidney backache.
 Liniment and plasters may relieve it;
 But they seldom reach the cause.
 Backache is cause to suspect the kidneys.
 Doans Kidney Pills are for dis ordered kidneys.
 Conway people back them up.
 Read a case of it.
 Mrs. R. C. Ludwick, Conway, Ark, says: q am only too glad to endorse Doan's Kidney Pills, for l know that they are a good remedy. They soon relieved me of pain and weakness in my back and other symptoms of kid ney complaint. My!fneighbors have also taken Doan's Kidney Pills and join me in praising them. You are welcome to publish this endorsement and I will be pleased to confirm it at any time y
