District.

ject to the democratic nomination.
FOR REPRESENTATIVE.
We are authorized to announco the
candidacy of J, R. Brock for Repre
sentative of Dale county—subject, to
the action of the Democratic party.
FOR TREASURER.
We are authorized to announce John M.
Castleberry a candidate for re-election to

for past favors and asks their support for a
second term.

We are authorized to announce R. L. Ca

Of the gubernatorial candidates—
Querry, Estill, Terry, Smith—we shall

All hail, the glad lidi%s, Miss Stone
it safe! Now, maybe, the press will be
able to turn over and draw one, good,
long breath—and take a much needed
rest.
One of the cleanest country weeklies
that comes to this office is The States
man—Democrat published at Jasper,
Tennessee by Rev. J. A. Darr, a gen
tleman well and favorably known in
this couuty.
The Stato Dispensary Law seems to
be gaining ground. It will likely give
US pure whiskey, and that’s not all—a
good, fat job for those who are dearest
to the administration and those who do
not show too much aatural disinclina
tion to accept same.
From present indications the coining
election for county officers, in Dade countv,
will be conducted in a harmonious and
gentlemanly style. Let it be remembered,
now and hereafter, that any man who will
seek to pull down his opponent, thereby
hoping to elevate himself, is not the prop
er man to serve his countrymen in the ca
pacity of a county official.
One thing for which tho inhabitants
of this country should feel especially
thankful is the remarkable absence o’f
cyclones during the present storm sea
son. It will be remembered that tho
press of the United States has been very
silent on this lire for the last several
months; the effects of a cyclone couldn’t
well be mentioned unless the storm had
roally been in existence.
IN ARKANSAS, OKLAHOMA
AND INDIAN TERRITORY.
Some Impressions Made
On the Traveller
Along th e New an(i pj ctur .
esque Choctaw Route.
After several days sojourn in the
Lone Star State,” we rind ourself
aboard the abound Choctaw
iram for Liule Rock and -The
l.and of Promise.” Though slight
fatigued as a result of our long
* rl l > 1,1 ti,e of '‘magnificent
distances,’ we are,. nevertheless.
-calculating on seeing the Red
loan’s last stopping place. The
<; hoctaw train, with speed not un
like our southern and eastern fast
•express and mail trains makes i.s
way almost due west through the
'center of the-Rea r State.” H;v
mg. amyil-in tin C api, u i of the
>'ate we.ot course, proceed to do a
** ° f ‘' name civet, the
•-innocent glances of the modest
observer in the south and ea-,,in

14 bU, ‘^" S *ny special fea
'tv res
But we arrived here a little late iu
the day aud according to our pre
viously arranged program we shall
be in Hot Springs tomorrow; so
you see we’ll hardly have the nec
essary time to appease our desire
for a correct verdict ot the town
as it occurs to the sight-seer. Wo
will say this much, however, the
capital of Arkansas presents
charms sufficient to tempt us to
spend more time here. Asa fact
with which our readers are famil
iar, Little Rock is very nearly in
the geographical center of the
state; is a town of some 28,000 or
30,000 population; a splendid rail
way and business center and, in
fact, an all round good town.!
Herb we shall rest and recuperate |
a little by taking a short vacation !
to be spent in slumberland in '
Arkansas’ metropolis.
Our first impression iu Hot
Springs, we are sorry to say, is
not altogether in keeping with that,
we imagine, which would be rea
lized consequent upon the dawn
ing of the Millennium. As your
humble seryant in company with
some eastern fellows alighted from
the train, a ‘"blue coat,” who hap
pened to be standing near, re
marked to us, ‘ Are you gentlemen
strangers here? If you are, lookoui
for hotel drummers, they w ill take
you to bad places 1” Not knowing
whether he had reference to the
hotels, or whether(kind man that
he waß)he meant to put us on no
tice that he knew of a real Dante’s
Inferno, for which these loud
mouthed cahmen were solicitors,
we just simply heeded his adyice—
that’s all. We took the liberty,
in the meantime, to inform the
good brother that the eastern and
southern press had not been oyer
kind with respect to this town in
point of dispensing, freely and
lavishly, their knowledge of the
habits of the wayward sons of Ad
am who infest(we hope not infect)
the depots here. The point of in
terest to us, now. is tp view the
real hot springs ot Hot Springs.
We proceed, at once, to the U. S.
Government reservations in this
burg. There, Uncle Sam. ever
kind and considerate offers the
visitor a chance to appease his
long pent] up desires to see this
sublime object of God’s unsatis
factorily explained mysteries.
There the traveller from east, west,
north, south feels perfectly at
home. Don’t imagine that it is
the least bit necessary to
your optical nervo to descern peo
ple-some here “for their health,”
some surely not —from the four
quarters of the earth. In glancing
over the hotel register at the Ar
lington, probably the best house
in Hot Springs, we can see names
and addresses from almost every
nationality. As we are not drum
ming for this place wa will only
say that it is necessary for one to
visit this town in order to under
stand that it is truly the invalids’
metropolis. There is hardly to
be found here the slightest doubt
or discrepancy as to tho h tiling
powers of the water of these
springs. Bat our inclination to
write up this place far surpusse
the space we will have in which to
do go. Strange to say, hut it is a
fact, we have never seen a town
where time, to us, appears so lim
lted as it does here. We wonder
if all strangers iu this place can
say as much? In conclusion ol
thebriet mention of our impress
ions hero we want to suggest* to
any ot our readers who may con
template travelling in the interest
of sight-seeing, that they can hard
ly find n more fascinating or in
feresting point than Hot Springs,
i Arkansas.
One of the most elegant trains
we have seen west of the Mississippi
—or east as fo* that matfpr—was
that which arrived in Little Rock
from Memphis this a. m, over the
Choctaw, Oklahoma and Onlfß. R
'\ e were much pleased to he able
to resume our journey westward
aboard this superb train. Although
this morning the country is cov
ered with snow; as far as the eye
can see it beholds the earth attired
in a white rob** and one is ordina
rily acutely conscious of the low
temperature attmhint thereon,
I> et t lie mi pnssonjyttfs

are the coaches heated by steam.

DAM COUNTY SENTINEL, TRENTON, UA„ FRIDAY, FEBRUARY >., 1902
we stop for dinner. Booneville is
rather an attractive little town,
lumbering beine the principal in
dustry.
At Howe, Indian Territory we
meet a Kansas City Southern train
which crosses the Choctaw Road.
Some of our passengers leave us
here for Kansas City. Only a few
miles westward we come to Wisler,
a small town where the Frisco
j system crosses our road. Here we
are fairly entering the Red man’s
country. Though this locality is
attractive enough for the dwelling
place of any of God’s creatures,
and while the race for which it is
set aside has every attention at the
hands of this great government,
acting as a true father, yet realizing
these facts we can not help but
feel sad when we allow our mind
to revert to the history of this once
pr-'ini and happy people. There
are many busy little towns along
the Choctaw Route in Indiau Ter
ritory.
Failing to get sufficient sleep
•ast night from causes easily un
derstood by the traveller, we find
ourself giving way to irrepressible
inclint tions to slumber. Once we
awoke(oe it said to the credit of
this new western road)and for a
few seconds we imagined we were
aboard tho Q. & C. Pan American
—a train with which we are not
entirely a stranger—so very swiftly
were we moving and so very com
fortaole an ) easy did we feel. Our
run through Western Indian Ter
ritory, over the magnificent prai
ries intermingled with pretty for
ests, is, we pronounce, such as
would completely captivate any
easterner. We now enter Oklaho
ma at a speed and aboard a train,
that for looks, comfort and style
would be hard to excel anywhere
in the U. S. Our train, including
two superb chair cars and two
Pullman’s, has just stopped in the
town of Shawnee —Indian in name
but Caucasioa in meaning—near
!he eastern boundary of Oklahama.
Next and likely forimost on the
route is Oklahoma Citv. This
town is claimed by the people
here to be the metropolis of Okla
homa.
As the sun is fixing to hide hi
face beneath the western land
scape, ami while the writer is
vainly attempting to command
words adequate to describe the
beauty of ibis region, tin* train
slackens its’speed while tie por
ter calls out, ‘‘Weatherford !” IDra
we absolutely balk in our iff iris
to represent, even partially'. th
attractiveness of this—the travel
lers’ fairy land. Appropriately
has Oklahoma lptn styled, ‘‘The
Land of Promise.’’ No writer of
fiction; no chronicler of truth; no
artist with crayon in hand, no mut
ter what be his talent, qin ever do
entire justice to this Edtaiss./ Amer
ica. In Weatherford we| the

a name for a hotel! We wonder
if the name wis adopted from the
frequency of storms in the locali
ty. At last we arrive at fZitfre, the
western termio£lof the
Clloctaw Route. This
tionaldy one of the clesicvlt, neat
est, newest towns we ever
seen. Bbtf
As an incident of invf3|k to us
we refer to a conversation me had
with Sayre’s most prominentVthy
sician with whom we met ntVbe
Choctaw’s elegant depot here, To
asked the brother if th.a
regarded as a healthful locality,
as is natuial for a stranger to in
quire. He replied : “Eyery phy
sician has left this town but me,
and I must get away or starve.
'1 liis is no place for a doctor unless
he comes for his health; he need
not come to this town in the inter
est of the health of others.’’ We
no longer attempted to suppress
a heartv laugh, in which the Doc
tor joined. After spending a day
or two here looking over this far
mers’, health-seekeis’ and sight
seers’ paradise we shall return
east. We want to say, in conclu
sion, that of all that has been
•sail; all that has been printed; all
! that has been pictured with regard
jto the benu.v of this region not
j one item, in our humble opinion,
i tias over-rated ihe true worth of
! ‘ - The Land of Promise.”
