 Uses of the Columbian and Trans-Mississippi Commememoratives in Arkansas Minimize
In the 1890's two great American Commemorative sets were issued.  In 1893 the Columbian Exposition was celebrated, and in 1898 the Trans-Mississippi Exposition was celebrated.  As with many issues, the number of usages of these stamps in the Arkansas postal system is quite small, compared to usages in the more populous portion of the US.

Shown below are the covers I have seen over nearly 48 years of looking for Arkansas Postal History.  Only the 2 cent Columbian issue can be considered "common" on Arkansas mail.

Often the higher values were used to pay the Registration Rate.  On July 1, 1875 the registration rate was set at 10 cents.  On January 1, 1893 the rate was reduced to 8 cents, and remained so until 1909.  So a 10 cent Columbian( or 2x 5 cent) could pay the combination of the registry fee and the 1st class rate for 1.0 oz.  The 8 cent Columbian ( or 2 x 4 cents) could pay the registry fee.

No Columbian value higher than 10 cents has been seen on Arkansas mail.
