A. Parker, has this week pre¬ sided in the Pulaski Superior Court for his honor, Judge J. If. Martin. “And whereas the bitr and other court officers of Pulaski county do not favor passing commendatory resolutions just as a matter of course, when a visiting judge pre¬ sides over our court, but whenever there comes from a neighboring circuit a judge, Whose conspicuous abilitv, whose ’utmost fairness, whose fine executive ability, whose uniform courtesy, and whose fine common sense stamp him as a reallv n * excellent PXC ; llent J iudge “3’ then ® thc coming . of such . a judge w to pre-i side over our court is a matter for | genuine congratulation on t,,„; part of the people of this county. “Therefore, be it resolved, That the bar and other court offi . j rers of Pulaski count v do heredv \ i record our appreciation of judg. ; Parker and his week labor among us; that when it becomes necessary in the future to secure the services of a visiting judge that Martm be requested to invite 1 Judge Parker to return; that we j in advance do hereby urge him to return: that we thank Judge Park er for his heavy weeks workt _> i Where Store Money Jesup riercantile Co’s.

Monday the census bureau sued a report on the quantity of cotton ginned from the crop If,04. showing a total growth that year ns fixed by the ginners to 'oo 18.093,279 bales. Ail the tax digests are in from the 137 counties in the state, and a total increase in values of §87.- 804.084. This is the largest crease in pro|>erty values ever known in the history of the slate in one year, and when it is be beie.Utl.dt red that the the total total increase men as* Kt I..M year from the same source was more than $->5,0(10,000, the in crease this year is regarded as marvelous.
