The large increase in our trade has made it
necessary for us to secure twice the room we
now occupy. We will move about January 15,
1903 to the store room now occupied by Henry
Schott. To avoid as much expense as possible
in moving we will,
Beginning January 1st, 1903,
Have the greatest cut-price, clean-up sale that
has ever taken place in Newport. See circulars for

J. M. Slayton served noT
I opposing council that all obj?
the proceedure must be enterl
in their proper order, to which1
Campbell gave his ready consent.
The court then overruled the motiof
of Mr. Campbell, who next introduced
a motion to dismiss the petition of
Henry Bordwell et al. on the ground
that the same was filed January 9,
1903, before the expiration of the two
years for which the prohibition order
was made and in support of this mo
tion, cited a decision from the Ala
bama supreme court, reading a state
ment of the case and opinion of the
court.
Judge M. M. Stuckey took up the
one decision brought forth, arguing
that the court had not acted in this
instance as in the Alabama case, prior
to the expiration of the time for which
the order was made.
The court then overruled this sec
ond motion of the prohi attorneys and
began the hearing of witnesses who
had taken the census and carried the
petition for the restoration of licensed
saloons within the three mile district
of the Newport public school. Will
Whittaker was first examined as to
the time and manner in which he had
taken said census and J. M. Stayton
was put upon the stand and questioned
in regard to his alphabetical compila
tion of the same. The attorneys then
compared the lists, some of the names
being almost illegible. The prohis, it
thus seems, are preparing to contest
the qualifications of many signers of
of the license petition. These lists
were being reviewed at press hour and
the end was not in sight.
RELIEF SOCIETY’S
ANNUAL REPORT.
Last Tuesday afternoon the Relief
Society met with Mrs. L. H rscb. This
was the first meeting o,f the year,
hence the tardiness of the report for
1902. In order that all members, em
bracing most of the business firms,
may know how their dues are used
and have some idea of the large
amount of good accomplished by the
Society, we kindly ask the editor of
this paper for some of his much ap
preciated space, for he prints our
notices free during the entire year
for which we now thank him.
Not taking time to itemize we give
below a few expenses of last year:
Drug bills for a few summer
•months. $20.90.
Wood bills for a few winter
months. 810.75.
One case—a sick mother and
babe. $36.25.
One family where every member
was sick at once with nothing on
hand. $40.00.
Bills from Merchants. $84.35.
The election of officers resulted in
the re-election of the old ones (with a
few bouquets.)
We start in this year’s work with
$220.35 in bank and a membership of
seventy-five.
l Thanking the physicians who have
^ always responded to our call, we beg
1 to remain,

RAILROAD RUMBLINGS.
PUSHING TOWARDS MARSHALL.
The railroad situation is all that
could be desired this week. Welsh
Bros., contractors, are now encamped
at the gap of the mountain east of
town and are rapidly pushing forward
the work. Several hands are clear
ing the right-of-way and digging
stumps on this side of the mountain,
others are building culverts, while a
large force of wheelers and scrapers
.ire at work right in the gap of the
mountain where a cut of seventeen
feet has to be made. Another force
of hands are grading further down in
Wiley’s Oove. Meanwhile the bridge
work at Buffalo and the grading on
Brush creek is being pushed forward
at a rapid rate. Cars are almost sure
to run into Marshall by June 1st.—
Marshall Republican.
HARRISON SEEKS TO RECOVER.
The eighty-eight citizens of Harri
son, who sued for an'alleged balance of
$1,300 by the railroad company have
employed Attorneys J. W. Story and
Frank Pace to look after their inter
ests in the case. Much more than
enough remains uncollected of the or
iginal subscription to settle all claims;
and it seems evident that the railroad
received a larger amount than was
guaranteed them by our people.—Har
rison Times.
REMOVAL OF BRAGG.
Thursday afternoon Mr. A. R.
Bragg, division freight agent of the
Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain at
Little Rock, received a telegram from
Mr. W. C. Stith, freight traffic mana
ger of the system at St. Louis, to the
effect that he would be relieved of
duty after February 1, on which date
his successor would be appointed.
The removal grows out of complica
tions resulting from the failure of the
Alphin-Lake Cotton Company of
El Dorado. Bills of lading for cotton,
which figure in the failure, were issued
from the office of Mr. Bragg, but all
his friends know that they were issued
in the regular way and in the legiti
mate course of business, as will be
shown by the bills themselves —Little
Rock Democrat.
