Correspondence respectfulv solicited. ; ! I , t ? n e Lexington Dispatch Wednesday, November 9, 1904. Letter from Arkansas. Mr. G. M. HarmaD, Editor of the Dispatch: If you will give me a Jit tie space id the columns of your much esteemed paper I will try to write you a few items from this part of the moral vineyard. The farmers are done stacking away fodder. Most all have put away au abundance of it. Most ail are done sowing wheat; some is coming up. Quite a novel way here of sowing whea4; they sow in corn land before they gather the corn out; plow in between the rows of corn, then gather the corn out. They graze the stock all winter in the fields. No "Stock Law" here. Good range in woods here 9 months in the year. Crops are a fair average of corn. Sweet potatoes are fine, also Irish potatoes are very fine. They can raise 100 bushels or more to, the acre without any fertilizer. They are busy now housing both kinds of potatoes. Irish potatoes keep here ail the year round. The writer is feasting on fat "possums and tatres" also cooDs and squirrels, of which there is an abundant crop of them raised. Wish you and many of my old friends could enjoy some of them. Everybody has plenty of white head cabbage and red apples now. There is a great many new Bettlers coming in this part of the country, buying land and homesteads from "Uncle Sam." It will soon be settled up thickly. A good many are attracted here by the fine fruit and vegetables which are produced here in such abundance^ also, the cheap lands and fine hardwood timber which iB here in large quantities. All kinds of oak, sweet ana black gum, scaleybark, hickory, ash, some walnut and short leaf pine?no long leaf pine as there is in South Carolina. A rich harvest awaits the saw mill man. There is more new railroads to be built in this county in the near future. The north part of this county is a ? - f7._L I ricn mming secuoD. n\un, cupper and lead are found in large quantities. Some people have become immensely rich. New settlers are coming in here from North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Missouri, Louisana, Texas, Indian Territory and one from South Dakota in this neighborhood. Apples raised in north Arkansas took the premium at the World's Fair, 1904, in St. Louis. This part of the State is destined to be the richest part of the State of Arkansas in no distant day. There is as fine a marble in this county in two miles of the county seat as any one would wish to see. They take a fine polish sure. The writer has been to the quarry, also, has seen tombstones finished up. Fare the well, me lovely Arkansas I bid thee adieu, adieu, I may emigrate to Heil-ena, Mcntana, But I'll never come back to you. ; [ "Tis sweet to see a bumble bee I WliL-i. ere you go a fishing, ' But if you sit right down on him | He will change your disposition." If this don't fall in the waste basket you may get some more news from your old friend in the "Bear State." James P. Dooley. Marshall, Ark., Oct. 22, 1904. No Politics ia Masonry. While Masonry has grown to vast i proportions, and extends all over the world, it can never be used to exert j aDy combined influence in political or I ecclesiastical affairs. It is built upon I too broad lines to be diverted from ! its proper aims. It receives as mem- ! bers men of all nations, creeds and beliefs. Its supporters come from j every raDk and class in society. It gathers to its counsels and about its j alter men whose birth, early environ- i ment, training and experiences hase ! been widely different, and unites i them for pure and blameless pur- ! poses. Is recognizes no sect and has \ no politics. j Freemasonry is the handmaid of j all seeking truth, light and right. It j is generous to a fault in dealing with j the frailties of meD. Its mission is j peace and good-will on earth. It inculcates the mutual obligations I of man to man in every walk of life, j It enforces the practice of every duty ; man may owe to his Creator, to his neighbor and to himself. It brings j together upon a common level the j prince and the peasant, the artist ! and the artisan, the rich and the j poor, uniting all in a universal ' brotherhood. j A valuable horse of Mr. Isidore ! Rich, of OraDgeburg, was poisoned j last week by eating Bough on Rats 1 mixed imbrand which had been pre- j pared to kill rats. The horse got j the barn door open during the night . and eat the poisoE which caused . x_ death in a few hours. Solicitor J. K. Henry has made his report to Governor Heyward on the lynching: of the white man, Mor- : rison, at Kershaw. The Solicitor says nothing can be done, as the people generally approved of the j lynching and any investigation would be a farce. BBM?8? ? oaaBMBM?MB??? Sis 0~n:sal Theory.

In the case of W. J. Bouknighfc against A. S. Osborne, chief constable, of Columbia, the jury in Magistrate Moorman's court brought iu a verdict for the defendant. The constables had raided Bouknigbt's establishment and found some liquors in a refrigerator, all of which proDertywas confiscated. Bouknight brought "claim and delivery" proceedings to secure the return of the stuff, but the jury decided that the constables had acted properly. - ? Would you like to know the secret of the wonderful cures effected- by Nature's great remedy Acid Iron Mineral? The explanation is a simple one. It is king of all inflammation, j Put it on a sore and in a few hours ' ? * Ti_ L :i_ tne mnammation is eone. itui, it uu a bleeding wound and it stops tbe flow of blood and quickly cures the wound. v Put it on any kind of an abrasion, wound, cut or other inflammation of the body and the result is always the same ? inflammation driven out and a quick cure. Now do you not know that nine tenths cf I all disease is of an inflammatory j character? The inflammation is internal and so bevond your vision. Nevertheless it is there. And since A. I. M. will cure inflammation quickly on an externa! sore, it will do precisely the same work internally where hidden from view The poor raw stomach of the dyspeptic is cured just as rapidly as a j cut would be cured on his hand. Tbe ulcerated throat, or inflamed bowels of a person afflicted with diseases of the throat, or with piles, etc, are just as amenable to A-I-M as if they | were external and could be cured be- j fere the eye. j Trade A-I-M mark on every bottle, j Sold by druseists. | Acid Iron Mineral Co , 52 Columbia, S.
