KNOWLEDGE
Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many who live bet-
' ter than others and enjoy life more with
less expenditure by more promptly
adapting the world’s best products to
the needs of physical being will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy Svrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas-
ant to the taste the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax-
ative ; effectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid-
neys Liver and Bowels without weak-
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug-
gists in 50c and $1 bottles but it is man-
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only whose name is printed on every
package also the name Syrup of Figs
and being well informed you will not
accept any substitute if offered.
Cures Biers
Will euro You is a true statement of t he
action of AYER’S Sarsaparilla when
taken for diseases originating in impure
blood; but while tins assertion is true of
AYER'S Sarsaparilla as thousands can
attest it cannot be truthfully applied to
other preparations which unprincipled
dealers will recommend and try to im-
pose upon yon as “just as good as
Ayer’s.” Take Ayer’s Sarsaparilla and
Ayer’s only if you need a blood-puriiier
and would bo benefited permanently.
This medicine for nearly fifty years
has enjoyed a reputation and made a
record for cures that lias never been
equaled by other preparations. AYER’S
Barsaparilla eradicates the taint of he-
reditary scrofula ami other blood dis-
eases from the system and it has deser-
vedly the confidence of the people.

SEWERAGE SECURED I
TEXARKANA TAKING FRONT
RANK AMONG OTHER CITIES.
An Ordinance Establishing a Joint
Sewerage System Passed by
Both City Councils.
Let nil Texarkana be glad! We are
to have an adequate sewerage system
—.the crying need of the city for many
years past.
Last night after careful considera-
t tion the East side city council by
J unanimous vote passed a sewerage
ordinance. The franchise for sewer-
’ age properly regulated was given to
! Mr. Ward and associates of Little
[ Rock. The West side city council
i had previously adopted a similar or-
dinance granting franchise to same
I parties and the system is to be a joint
one.
The rates to be charged are very
( reasonable—lower than that paid by
residents of New Orleans La. or Ty-
ler Texas ranging from $8 to sls
per annum for private residences and
proportionate rates for business
houses hotels etc. Entire sewer sys-
tem is to be complete and in use with-
in six months from signing up of con-
tract so we may confidently expect it
finished before the coming summer
season.
The city (both sides) reserves the
right to purchase the system at tbe
end of ten years although the fran-
chise is given for a period of twenty
years.
Mr. Ward and one or more of his
associates agreed on the rates and
other details regulating the system
and doubtless in a few days the bind-
ing contract will be signed and then
work on the system will begin.
We congratulate the city officials on
both sides on this wise move—“well
done good and faithful servants”—to
you belong the credit of giving Tex-
arkana sewerage her acknowledged
greatest need. We congratulate our
city on this forward step. Texarkana
is certainly taking front rank among
other live growing citie>. The city’s
permanent growth and prosperity we
believe is now assured beyond a doubt.
Nothing can stay her onward and up-
ward march.
SLEEPING ON HER RIGHTS.
Arkansas a Highway for Immigra-
tion to Other States.
Some of the most pertinent if at
the same time unpleasant truths yet
uttered on the subject of immigration
into this state arc contained in the
following excellent article from the
Arkansas Press:
Inside of the past forty days it is es-
timated that over 4000 souls have mi-
grated from Mississippi Alabama
Georgia and East Tennessee with a
fair representation from Virginia
Maryland aud Pennsylvania. Ninety-
tlve per cent of those from southern
states mentioned located in Texas
while those from the other states se-
lected as a rule Kansas as their fu
tore home.
Texas Kansas aud other western
states stated some time ago in the
most convincing terms that they
wanted the sturdy yeomanry in the
overcrowded east whose desirability
was so prominently placarded by their
continuous efforts under very unfavor-
able circumstances to make a living on
farms the vitality of which waa ex-
hausted by their forefathers. These
states did not simply make the an-
nouncement and decide that further
efforts were not necessary. No in-
deed. They kept on talking kept ou
referring to the adaptability of their
soil with equally persistent references
to their resources and the people
commenced coming. On arrival the
new population found that they had
not been deceived and they too join-
ed the original talkers and thus the
army of talkers In the west increases
and the army hastening to the terrl-
i tory bo highly praised increases. As
■ a result the grand cities of the west
are as well known throughout tbe
world as London and New York.
Who in thestatoof Arkansaspossess-
ing the least degree of state pride
does not feel a flush of shame mantie
i their cheeks when they face the fact
. that a mammoth division of the grand
i army that hastened to the west aud
; made It what It Is today passed en-
route through this state entering at
t the east gale and leaving at the west
' gate? If our full duty had been dis-
charged who doubts but that Dallas
i Fort Worth Waco and other thriving
magic interior Texas cities would bo
In the state of Arkansas with Austin
Texas a good sized village and San
Antonio a trading post?
! Our duty is plain. We must com-
mence trying to convince the bone
mid sinew of the overcrowded east
that we want them and want them
bad. We must make up our minds to
treat them right when they come. We
’ must aid them in all laudable efforts
to establish themselves to
the extent of our ability. A spastic
t effort will not suffice and will prove
abortive if decided upon. The effort
must be a persistent one and just as
sure as two aud two make
four the tide of immigration looking
i for desirable homes will be duly in-
i’ flueuced by our representations. It is
a homely illustration but nevertheless
. hits the bull’s eye and we only use it
• to simplify the situation. Every dol-
lar brought to this state and every
. extra bushel of grain raised contribute
their mite towards making the slate
i great just as every ear of corn fed a
I hog in a pen for the market creates
. fat ou jowls and hams alike.
QUIET AT HONOLULU.
The Provisional Government Doesn’t
Resign and Willis Does Nothing.
The following dispatch concerning
the condition of affairs in Hawaii and
discrediting many of the sensational
stories afloat on that subject was
sent out from San Francisco Cal. yes-
terday:
Any idea of obtaining information
from the revenue cutter “Corwin” in
regard to the condition of affairs at
Honolnlu has been almost abandoned
by the newspapers ot this city. Capt.
Munger has anchored the Corwin as
far inshore as safetv would permit.
She lies close to San Quentin ten
miles from here with just enough
room to swing with the tide and clear
the mud flats. It would be difficult
to find a more inaccessible place in the
bay. No one leaves the cutter to go
on shore and no one is permitted to
go on board. She is a floating safe
deposit of the news aud no one but
the authorities at Washington have
the key and the combination. A man
with good lungs may have conversa-
tion with the officer of the deck but
that conversation is not of great profit
to a man who asks questions. From
the deck of the tow-boat the reporter
today hailed the cutter and asked to
be allowed to come aboard.
“I’ll see sir” shouted the officer of 1
the deck and in a moment he resum- '
ed “No one is permittea to come 1
aboard or go ou shore.”
“Will you let me have a copy of the
latest Honolulu papers vou have on 1
board.”
“No sir; 1 have no commission what-
ever for you. Good day sir.”
“Good day sir.”
Owing to the apparent impossibil- j
tty to secure any information from
the Corwin the arrival of some other
vessel from Honolulu is anxiously
awaited. Several sailing vessels are
due from Honolulu but if they should (
arrive within a day or two it is not
probable that they would bring ad- |
vices later thau the Auckland dispatch |
of Dec. 22. Owing to the statement
in that dispatch that the steamer
Miowera which went aground in
Hololulu some time ago and was at- ]
terward floated was preparing to sail j
for San Francisco that steamer is ex- (
pected at any time. The Pacific Mail <
steamer City of Pekin from Hong
Kong and Yokohama via Honolulu
is not looked for before Thursday.
Until a few days ago she was schedul-
ed to arrive to-morrow but it has
been ascertained that elie was one
day late iu leaving Yokabama which
will undoubetedly delay her arrival.
The Canadian Pacific steamer Warri-
nio which is due at Victoria B. C. on
Wednesday or Thursday may bring
the first news from the islands but it
is thought very probable that she will
not reach Victoria for a day or two
after her schedule time.
Muscle and Vigor—A Difference.
Many muscular men succumb to
fatigues berne with ease by persons
far their inferiors in physical strengh
Muscle does not imply vigor. In fact
it is not difficult of proof that athletes
do not live as long nor enjoy as good
health as the average individual who
is vigorous—that is to say whose di-
gestion aud sleep are impaired whose
nerves are t: anquil anil who has no
organic tendency to disease. These
requisites of vigor are conferred upon
those inherently weak no less than
' upon those debilitated through wast-
' ing disease by a thorough persistent
■ course of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters
the leading national tonic indorsed
and recommended by physicians of
eminence it wHI not endow you

and renew the active and healthful

' ney complaints and overcomes dys-

Sewerage and Longinottl’s hand-

eral themes for conversation these

tariff reform.
The Fight Over the New Tariff Bill
Begins in Earnest in the House.
Washington 1). C. Jan 9.—This
was a field day for the tariff reformers
in the House. The galleries were
thronged all day and the floor was al-
so crowded. Each side put forth its
ipost brilliant orators for the day’s
session. Mr. Wilson Chairman ot the
Ways and Means Committee complet-
ed bis speech begun yesterday and
Mr. Burrows opened tbe debut -for
tbe Republicans with a three hour re-
ply. Gen. Black of Illinois and Mr-
Hopkins of Illinois followed. The
good points of all the sneakers were
liberally applauded by their respective
partlsiaus. At the evening session
Mr. Haines a Democrat from New
Y’ork in the name of the collar and
cuff industry fired tbe first shot into
the Wilson bill. He displayed a gi-
gantic petition signed by 67000 peo-
ple protesting against the collar and
cuff schedule declaring that if it waa
to become a law it would ruin this
great industry
At 11:16 the House resolved itself
into committee of the whole for the
consideration of the tariff at:d Mr.
Wilson resumed his speech of yester-
day. He continued the thread of his
argument presenting his side of the
case in forceful language. His re-
marks were ofleu Interrupted by
Democratic applause but otherwise
he was allawcd to proceed until he
created something of a stir when he
referred to the fact that the protests
against the pending bill were largely
Inspired by the power of capital
which directed forced aud frighten-
ed employes to sustain the protected
industries. He said that when tbe
effort to abolish slavery was being
made a petition had come from a large
delegation of slaves praying that
slavery might be continued. This
brought to his feet Representative
Doolittle qf. Washington with the
question: “And do you compare the
laboring men of this country with the
slave element of the South?”
“I think such a question would not
bo asked by any one above the intel-
ligence of a slave.” [Loud aud prolong-
ed applause on the Democratic
side ]
With an occasional interruption the
debate continued and Chairman Wil-
son concluded bis speech amid deafen-
ing applause from Democratic side of
the House. The other speakers fol-
lowed in the order named above con-
cluding the day’s debate at 8 o’clock
p. in. when the House adjourned for
the day.
WATER FOR IRRIGATION.
The investigation of the water Hup-
ply aud resources of the United states
undertaken by the geologicial survey
has been practically completed and
tbe result is now being given t the
public through the Press at Washing-
ton. The work whs comiueuced Oc-
tober 1889 with the object of deter-
mining the object of water available
for tbe irrigation of the arid lands of
tbe West or far use as water power.
The most active field work was car-
ried on in 1 “89-90 and stimii. hue
been made of most of the drainage
basing west ofone huudreth meridi. a
as well as several “catmerits” of the
east. Scientist devoted a large part
of time examining the “run offs” of
the Missouri Arkansas Rio Grande
and Snake rivers.
“It does not appear possible” says
Geologist Newell “that even as high
as ten per cent. of the land now own-
ed by 'he government can ever bo ir-
rigated. In fact there is not a suffic-
ient supply of water to bring under
cultivation an area equal to that which
passed Into the hands of individuals
aud corporations. There are. how-
ever localities where thousands of
acres can be profitably irrigated by
the construction of darns and irrigat-
ing canals.”
