ESTES DEVELOPING
 EFFICIENT MACHINE

Coach Dan Estes sent his Normal warriors through long scrimmage yesterday afternoon. Another after noon of the same character will be spent today. The remaining practice sessions until the Jonesboro Aggies meet the Pedagogues on the Normal field will consist only of signal and bunting drills and perfecting new plays. The team showed up well yesterday. The backfeld has devel- oped into a machine like combination. The Inen put up excellent interfor- ence for the runner, when the play is directed at the line, the runner hits it hard and low. The lads get away with good start. The line men also showed more strength. On the de- fense were adamant. If the line holds against the Craighead county agriculturists, the Teachers should cop the prize.
 The Jonesboro game is scheduled for next Saturday, but Coach Estes is trying to have the game advanced to Friday It will be the first game of the season on local soil for the Pedagogues. A large crowd doubt less will witness the setto.

CONVICTION RESTS
 GRIFFIN IN DEBATE

Really someone should have spoken to Ben Griffin and not permitted him to have gone before buzz saw.
 But, seriously, the prohibitionists made a great killing at the joint de- bate. The address of MT. Griffin was disappointing to his own friends. He is travelling over the state asking that the saloons be brought back, not as they were two years ago, but as they were fifty years ago, without any re- strictions. MT. Griffin spent his en- tire time defending the right of the people to vote upon the question. At no time did he say a word in favor of the saloon or defend the provis-

ROAD SURVEY IS
 AGAIN DEFERRED

Another of the unfortunate series of delays in making the official sur vey of the proposed highway from Conway to the east line of the county, through Vilonia, occurred this week, when, through misunderstanding of the date, the engineers of the state highway commission failed to arrive Monday. A party from Vihonia and other points along the road were here to meet the engineering corps and when they failed to arrive a tele- phone message to Little Rock brought the information that the highway office understood the survey was to begin on October 30 Arrangements were then made to begin the work on next Monday, October 30, and it is believed there will be no further de- lays.

PLUMfRY|LLf GAS
 WELL ABANDONED

Malone stated, had been sunk to a depth of over 5000 feet, and, while strong traces of gas were discovered at depth of about 500 feet, no further flow was developed as drilling progressed. and the test was finally given up as q dry hole. The prospecting work was financed by C, A. Braden, Tulsa millionaire, the work being done under the direction of Col. J. B. Streator. who has spent several years in the Plumerville field, and who has supervised the drilling of several other unsuccessful test wells in that vicinity.

COTTON CLIMBS TO
 l9 CTS.;; SEED S56

Another big rise in cotton pushed the price on the local market to the 19-cent mark today. The market opened this morning at 1890, on the basis of strong advance at Liver pool, and when the New York and New Orleans markets responded to this rise, local buyers began paying l9 cents for average receipts and this price prevailed throughout the day.
 The seed market was wildly excited late yesterday afternoon. From a steady price of $52 per ton, buyers be- gan bidding on loads, finally running the price up to the record high point of $56.75 per ton. This morning the price opened at $54, but did not stay at that figure but short time until $55 to $56 was being paid The mar ket was unsettled this afternoon, but 1t was stated that five buyers were in with limit of $55.

ions of the impending bill.

ioiiS oi tHe HHpeIlulnS Dlll. MT. Covington of course spent most of his time in answering the argu-
 ments made, and he made the position of MT. Griffin painfully weak and in- consistent.
 The men who brought Mr. Griffin here were clearly swindled. He took occasion to say that he never had signed for a saloon license and never expected to do so. He said not one word in defense of the men who are trying to bring the saloon back. He simply harped on the one question of letting the people vote, and MT. Gov ington showed clearly that his was pure hypocrisy.
 The prohibitionists are jubilant be- cause they had the advantage in the argument and MT. Griffin was a pitt ful figure as he tried to reply. He was whipped, and in company with every other man in the house, he knew it.
 The crowd was strongly prohibi- tionist. There are about 2,00O votes
 in the Fort Smith district and prac- tically one-half were present yester- day, testifying their approval of the terrible arraignment by MT. Coving- ton.-Editorial in Fort Smith Times Record

WARNS AGAINST
 OKLAHOMA FEVER

A warning against the "Oklahoma 1 fever" which has infected consid. erable number of Faulkner county | farmers and caused them to move to | the new state, was uttered today by w. H. Tryon, who has been living for the past 10 years between Sapulpa and Tulsa and who is here looking out a new location. People who think Oklahoma is land flowing with milk and honey should look well be- fore they leap into it, Mir. Tyron said. They have crop failures out there just as everywhere else and when they do have one it is bad one. In Musko- gee county, from the city of Muskogee to Webber's Falls this year it looks desolate. Practically nothing at all was made in this territory, and many l60 acre farms will produce nothing more than four or five tons of hay"
 There has been an unusually large number of farmers in this county emigrating to Oklahoma this fall and it is rather difficult to ascertain a cause for it. The crops of Faulkner county this year, while somewhat shorter than the average, will yield almost twice as much money as ever before in its history, owing to the high prices prevailing, and the people as whole are more prosperous than ever before.
