COTTON MADE
MUCH PROGRESS
During Week. Needs Warm
Weather In East and Rain
in Arkansas and Missis-
sippi Valley.

/ Favorable progress in cultiva-
ton was made in every cotton
state during the week, ending
June goth. Grass seems no
longer an immediate or a serious
menace in the Carolinas and
Georgia and elsewhere the ex-
cellent field and soil conditions
which have been a notable char
acterlstic Of the season are
maintained.
The rainfall in Texas was
highly beneficial and was heav-
lest where most desired. Tenn
peratures were higher every
where and the plant is gradually
coming out of the lethargy in
duced by unreasonable cold of
the early month.
But while every development
of the week was favorable, it is
evident that continuation of
warm growing weather is need
ed to restore the plant to COM
plete vigor and to give it normal
size for this date. This state
ment is especially applicable to
the Atlantic states where con-
siderable irregularity in reports
is noted and where the plant is
generally less thrifty and more
notably understood than in the
Mississippi Valley and the
Southwest.
Correspondents are generally
quite hopeful of the crop and it
is certain that the promise in
central and western states is
very good Notwithstanding q
small plant. What is most to be
desired is warm weather and if
moderate rains fall during the
coming week east of the Missis-
sippi river and in Arkansas, a
great impetus to growth will be
given.
Boil weevils appear numerous
in certain districts, but without
detriment as yet to the crop.

Over 3 to | For Brundidge.

While the Hays supporters
were iubilant over returns from
the southern part of the state
and some counties in this Sec
ton, Jackson county made a
splendid showing in it's support
of S. Brundidge, who has lead
over Hays in this county of 456
in the returns of twenty pre-
cinct out of thirty. The COM
plete returns for the county will
give Brundidge about 500 ma
jority and when you consider the
total vote of only about 1000, it
means that the Searcyan receiv-
ed 3 votes to every one cast for
his opponent.
Jacksonport cast Fl straight
votes for Brundidge, with Swift
ton, Weldon, Surrounded Hill,
Bridge School House and Ken
yon casting all the way from Is
to 1, to 5 to l for Brundidge.
The interest in the primary
was so lukewarm that only about
one-half of the regular primary
vote was cast. According to re-
ports, no election was held at
Horseshoe, Gourd Neck, Martin
School House, Burton's store,
which leaves Denton Island,
Eight Mile, Ford School House,
Balch, Algoa and Barren Town
ship still unreported and the
vote of these precincts may not
be known until the vote is can
vassed next Saturday.

Funeral of OathOut.

Bonneville, June 22.-The fu-
neral of State Auditor John M.
Oathout was held this morning
at 10 o'clock at the Baptist
church, being conducted by the
Rev. w. J. Hinseley, who chose
for his subject, 81 Am the Way"
John 14-6. He referred to Mr..
Oathout as a man who had done
great deal of good, always u.s.
ing his influence for mans moral
uplift. The Rev. Mr.. Hinseley
said: Brother Oathout was a
regular attendant at the prayer
meetings and Sunday services.
His influence will continue to
to live and his faith in God was
a pattern for the most pious. A
desire of the deceased was that
no black be worn, but that the
heart stricken take courage to
shatter the time honored custom
by substituting white, typifying
everlasting peace and happi-
ness"
Judge J. H. Evans, a life long
friend of Mr.. Oathout, delivered
an eloquent eulogy for 30 min
utes. He referred to Mr.. Oath
outs arrival at Bonneville, a boy
10 years old, with a widowed
mother and an invalid aunt, in
an ox-wagon.

June P. Wooten for Judge of the
Third Division of the Pulaski
and Perry county Circuit Court
certain.
Six of the largest townships in
Perry county and all but four
townships in Pulaski county give
Hendricks 2,219 votes and Woot-
en- 1856, a majority for the for
mer of 364. 1t would be practi-
cally impossible for Wooten to
overcome this lead in the miss
ing townships, all of which poll a
small vote. Judge Hendricks
friends claim to have carried by
a decisive vote Bayou Meto
township in Pulaski county,
from which no returns have been
received.
Pulaski county, with four
townships missing, gives Hen
bricks 1892 and Wooten 1876, a
majority for Hendricks in the
county of 316.
The six county townships
from which returns have been
received gave Hendricks 227 and
Wooten 179, majority for Hen
bricks of 48.

Little Rock, June 22-"Hen-
dirk College is to be the leading
educational institution in Ark
ansas,' declared former Govern
or George w. Donaghey on We'd
nesday afternoon, "and the cleo
ton of DR.. John H. Reynolds as
the president is the first step
on a campaign to increase the en-
dowment Of 100000 and erect
buildings to cost not less than
$3.50, 900 in five years. There is
no doubt in the world but that
We will do this, for we have the
men behind the institution who
do things and who will not recog-
nize defeat.
I'm addition to this we will e.
rect a memorial building to the
late w. C. Martin of Conway,
which will forever keep his men,
DRY green in the minds of the pa
irons of the institution. Capt.
Martin stood by the college when
it, needed friends, and his funds
permitted the institution to keep
going until an endowment of
100000 was raised and the
college relieved of debt. What
sort of a memorial building this
will be is to be selected later by
the Board of Trustees.
"The last of the subscriptions
on the 100000 endowment will
be paid this year, and Hendrix
then becomes a very stable in
stitution.
"The fact that it has such a
large endowment will cause men
who desire to make requests to
college in Arkansas, to devote
their attention to Hendrix. We
have quite a number of such
men in sight, and they are men
who are able to do such thing,
and men who have before looked
into the proposition but found
no inducements offered by Ar
kansas institutions, sufficient to
attract their money. Hendrix
is one of the very few colleges in
the state that is out Of debt,
and this is going long way to-
ward the upbuilding of the in
stitution. It is not such a hard
matter to raise $350,0OO for en-
dowment and buildings if you go
about it right, and that is our
first intention
