homes of the people of Mississippi
county, he had the largest practice
oi any physician ever in the county, ,
and enjoyed the confidence of his
patrons to an unusual degree; and it
is difficult for words to express what
a blank his deprature makes; it will
take time to realize that when acci- .
dent or disease brings thedeath angle
hovering at our doors, that Dr. Dun- .
avant will be no longer at our call.

3 A Household Treasure.
D. W. Fuller, of Cahajoharie, N. Y.,
eavs that he always keeps Dr. Kings New
Discovery in the house and his familv '
has always found the very best results
follow its use; that he would not be with- i
out it, if procurable. G. B. Dykeman, ,
Druggist, Catskill, N. Y, says that Dr.
King’s New Discovery Is undoubtedly 1
th® beat Cough remedy; that he has used
it in his family for eight years, and it has .
never failed to do all that is claimed for
it. Why not trv a remedy so long tried
and tested. Trial bottles at C. If. Gay

It is said the Standard Oil Compa
ny made $56,000,000 In the few days
in which they forced the price of oil
up. If this is true the people ought
to know it. If one company hassuch
control of oil, another such control of
beef, another of coal, another of this,
and another of that, that they can
make people pay what.they choose for
the very necessaries of life, then are
we not under a most burdensome sys
tem of taxation. Whether true or
not, it is constantly talked that the
people are at the mercy of merciless
corporations, and that all appeals to
legislatures and courts for relief arc
utterly useless—Kennett Democrat.

3 To Hi* Honor, Judse F. G. Tat
r lor:
[ We your Grand Jurors, would re
-1 spectfully submit the following re
’ port.
First, we have diligently Inquired
Into, and closely examined all evi
dences of violations of law and have
found as a result of our labors
true bill*. We have made as close
an inspection of the Jail us its foul
condition would allow. We find said
Jail to to too small to give humane
comfort, and room for its inmates,
’ and the prisoners to be in a truly
wretched condition. We find the
, structure to be decaying; is rapidly
। yielding to the crumbling touch of
time, and with a painful realization
of the financial oppression, and a full
sense of the depreciated value of the
monetary condition of cur county, we
are yet constrained to recommend
the building of a new Jail. Withall
deference and respect to the citizens
of Mississippi County, we would say
to them that the present prison house
of Mississippi County is a disgrace
and a blot on tbe civilization of the
nineteenth century.
In this connection we would say
further, that the Jail is in a very un
sanitary condition; and from the im
perfect examination we were enabled
to make, because of the set id, sicken
ing odor, which actually drove some
of our members to the open air for
b-eath; we are of the unanimous opin
ion that the condition of the interior
of our Jail could be greatly improved,
and we would respectfully suggest to
your Honor to remind the officers in
charge of *aid building of their duty
In the premises and of their honor in
the humane treatment of their pris
oners. We notice with regret the
alarming Increase of murder In our
county, but with pleasure submit our
our opinion that many offenses of a
smaller grade arc on the wane. We
desire to further submit to your Hon
or, as a result of our labors in inves
tigating the unlawful traffic in spir
itous liquors, the painful recognition
of some powerful, yet subtle influ
ence, almost every effort on the part
of this tody to fully discover crimi
nating evidence, and arrive at satis
factory conclusions. While the at
mosphere is tilled with rumors and
cries of distress, yet, almost every in
vestigation prove futile, falls to our
dismay, still-born on our bands.
In this connection, we would sub
mit and recommend to the corpora
tiou authorities that their proximity
to the evils would largely qualify
them to watch its progress and dili
gently search for evidence conducive
to its suppression. We are impressed
with the flourishing condition of the
liqubr traffic, but yet, we believe its
suppression depends upon the people
of Monroe Township.

Homes and Homelessness.
A writer in the North American review
not long ago made the statement that the
United States is the largest tenant far
mer nation in the world, and gives a list
of nineteen states having an aggregate of
171,210 tenants—more than all England,
Scotland aud Ireland, whose homeless
are rurallsts we are Inclined to sympa
thize with. In the item of homeless far
mers Illinois leads with 85,214; next
comes Tennessee, with 57,290; Georgia,
62,175 and Texas 55,465. And the pro
portioa of farmers who live under their
< vn roofs and cultivate their own ac- --
ihe propon ; ou i rural homes to the
total population Is rapidly decreasing
This fact is a cloud upon our polities
lorizon whose portent, no one can for
tell. When men are detached from t' “
soil, patriotism languishes aud tbe d— -1
finds plenty of aid and comfort in sowing
die tares of political niscorn among th
-of peace Who are those wh.
gather In “armies’’ and sweep the conn
try iu (heir course, like Sherman in li
uia-ej to the sea? Who are they ths
fill the ranks of rioters, terrorize com
tn unities, and are only restrained in their
license by bullets and bayonets? Who
are they that form the political bodygu: <1
of the dangerous demagogue iu his cam
pa'gu for political spoil-? Who com
pose toe great army of purchasable t
ters, who are supposed, even now, to hold
the balance of power throughout the
country, aud who actually control tin
ci .al politics—if it be lawful to call hat
‘ nolitics" which is merely a tierce s.r
of thieves for the lion’s share of th
ty? You will seek In vain among ad
this scurvy throng for the “sovereign of
the soil"—the man who dwells under s
own vine aud flg tree, whose patriotic
has tak.-n root like his sturdy trees,dec’
in the soil he loves. He loves his hon: -.
his family, his country; but tear him
from the soil, and the noble tree becomes
drift-wood, going with the current, at i
tit for nothing but to add fuel to a great
social or political conflagration. We may
not have demonstrated our Incapacity for
self-government, but we have certainly
hot convinced the world that we actually
do govern ourselves well. If, by any
feature of our public policy we are turn
ing patriotic citizens into irresponsible
vagabond's, we are to that extent a polit
ical failure. One thing is apparent, that
it is every year becoming more difficult
for men of moderate means to obtain
homes for themselves and families, and
iu view of this unpleasant fact it should
be the alm of every self-respecting man
to overcome thia tendenoy of the times
by special effort, aud to make the acqui
sition of a home the first object of his
life. The improving and beautifying
can coma later if need be. Our only
safety is in the homes of the people, and
our greatest danger in their destruction.

—Circuit Court again next week.
—Friday morning an assault was
made witb a knife, at the Butler sa
loon at Plum Point, by one of the
bar-tendera, named Roberta, on Will
McMurry, cutting his throat in a
dangerous manner. The negro was
brought over to Osceola for treat
ment.
The Van Buren Venture "ven
tures” to assert that if all the straw
berries that were shipped from that
placi last Saturday were placed end
to end they would reach from Van
Buren to Ozark and would give every
man, woman and child in the state a
dish of the luscious fruit. Who says
Arkansas is not a fruit country?
Comb to Arkansas.
What more can the home-seeker ask
than Arkansas has to offer? As to
health, the census statictics show
। hat the death rate here even includ
iig the bottom counties, nearly 2 per
<-ent. less than in the northern states.
Among over 600 students at Fayette
ville last year there was not a single
death and but two cases of serious ill
ness. We have a school house for
very 291 people, a church for every
325 and a college for every 22,000.
We have the richest of soils; every
mineral and metal known to man;
can raise almost everything grown in
the temperate zone, and ucyer have
an entire failure of crops. All our
in emium fruits are seedlingsshowing
chat it 1* our soil and climate that
gives them their excellence. With
good health, good morals, schools,
churches, soil and climate, water and
timber and social conditions, what
more can be asked?— Springdale
