BEOER-rCANDIOACY TO THE VOTER 8 OF PULASKI COUNTY: As vou well know, I was a candidate for the olfice of sheriff and collector of Pulaski county at the Democratic primary election lust March, and at sanl election 1 received not less than one thousand more votes than Mr, C. Kava-naugh, who was given the nomination. Knowing that I had been wronged, I appealed to the county central committee and offered to prove the irregularities which lost me the nomination for said office, The county ceutral committee refused me a hearing. I have since set out in detail some of the irregularities which wore perpetrated, in a circular to tbo voters of this county.

The courts have said tbey have no jurisdiction to redress the wrong done me. Nothing remained but to Rgmn enter the raoo anil appeal to the good people of this county to say, once more, by their votes, that thoy do not favor such practices at the polls as I was the Victim of. I mtfko this, my last to my friends to go to the polls tomorrow, Monday, September 6, and vote for uio for sheriff and collector, promising them that if elected I shall give them an honest administra tion, and make them an officer that they will not be ashamed of.

No satisfactory exulana tion has been given, why the ear stopped in tbe middle of the track, after it start ed across.

Fred Utz, the gatemhn at the crossing, said: "My orders have been not to use the gates, although there are gates here. When the car approached, I saw it and rang the crossing bell.

Brown, secretary sf the Little Rock Board ot Trade, from Willis L. Moore, acting secretary of tbe United States Department of Agriculture, giving the Information that tbe so-called boll weevil found in this state is a hamlets insect and is not injurious to cotton. Ia hla tetter to Mr.

Brown, Becrttarj Moore adds tbat "under the circumstances I do not see the necessity of sending a specialist to Investigate a species of insect whose habits are already known." Assurance of this kind, coming from so high an authority, will relieve the feeling Of uneasiness among those cotton growers who were alarmed at the appearance of an lnsoct which so closely resembled the boll weevil as to decelvo old cotton experts. Specimens of this Insect were sent to Washington, examined and pronounced harmless, and still it was thought best to hare a specialist sent here to further Investigate. Secretary Brown made a request to this effect, with the result that be received the following letter yesterday, which should at rest all fears oa the subject: "Department of Agriculture, Office of tbe Secretary, Washington, P. August SO, 1904. "Mr.

George B. Brown, Little Rock Board of Trade, Little Keek, Ark.t "Sir I am in receipt of your two communications dated the Htb and ZJth together with clippings front the Gaistte and the.

In this connection I beg to call your attention te niy twe communications dated August ti, which evidently crossed yours of the J4th and SStb, and in which lull information la given regarding the specimens submitted (or determination.

1 merely repeat what I wrote you before, that the Insect sent is a common species of weevil known to entomologists as conotrachelus elegans, a relative of the plum curoulllo (conotrachelus nenuphar). The species Id question1 is not injurious te cotton, but lives on the underground stems of a species of ragweed (ambrosia). (Juiler the circumstances, I do not see the necessity of sending a special 1st to Investigate a species ot Insect whose habits are already, known. Possibly your cotton Is suffering from a disease.
