This year Easter falls on the latest
date on which it can possibly fall,
that is to say, April %, or nearly q
month after the beginning of the sec !
oud quarter ofthe year. Such case
has not happened in this century and
will not occur again. In the next
century, the twentieth Easter win
fall on April %, 10 l943. If we turn
back to previous centuries. We fad
that such late date for castor oc-
ours only once in eachk century, that
is 1884, 1865, 1916, 145l; the four
teenth century goes without such
late date 1904, 100. 1914. 9l9.-
The earliest date for Easter, March
%, has occurred ouly once in this
century, in 1918, and it will not re-
cur before A. d. 1000. This earliest
day for Easter has occurred in 1861,
1898, 1903. and 1878, 147S, 1898;
the thirteenth century Is passed over;
1886, l04l, GAG. II is interesting 10
note how Easter will distribute itself
up to A. ID. 1000. In the present
century, Easter will fall only twice
more in March, on the 20. in 1891,
and on the %, In 1894. OF the re-
naming twelve years of this century,
five Easter days fall in the first week

Time for Action.

Now Is tine time for action on the part of the friends of Hon. Thos. C. McRae. The Republicans have a forlorn hope of coming in, by the help of Rev. Larkin Hit, the alleged Wheel, Greenback can' didate. If all the Wheelers in the district. or even three-fourths, should vote for Hit, 1t might elect Ray, the Republican candidate, as most of the Wheelers are Demo crats. Let us all remember this that there is no chance for Hit and a vote for him is helping Ray and ask our Wheel and Greenback friends to vote for M Rae.
 There is no question but what Tom McRae is both competent ano efficient. He has already done good work in Congress, let's senc him back. He will reflect honor on both himself, our county, the Third Congle essional district ant the State.
 Don't stay at home, but go out and get your neighbor to go also. and vote and work for McRae.

 HARD TIMES"

People are forever complaining of hard times. Now, 1t is not our purpose 10 try to explain why we have "hard timeS' or what Is the cause; will only say by way of parenthesis that every man can make his financial condition better or worse, as he sees fit But ln this article, We propose to glVe data proving that We are not sui fering from such ''hard times" as a great many people think. or course it is not now, nor never has been, an easy matter for a poor man to make living or rise in the world. Who is it that has not heard of "hard times" existing ever since they could remember? Now for the data. Read carefully the two following extracts:
 THE "GOoD OLD DAYS"
 Goshen (N. Y.) Democrat. "l guess these farmers who are grooming about low prices and high taxes. and who are longing for the good old times, don't remember much about the good old umcs,' said we'll known Orange county farmer of Goshen. N. Y. "I can remember when we used to haul our grain, butter, pork and eggs all the way to Ncwburg, going one day and coming back the next. We generally got To cents bushel for oats, and 10 cents pound for butter. Seyenty-tive cents a bushcl for wheat was fancy price. If we got or cents dozen for eggs we thought we were doing we'll. Nice corn-fed pork, dressed, we oarted to mark et for g a hundred. The butter We put on the market in those days was the gen uine Orange county article, yellow as gold and as hard as walnut. l have sold tub full after tubful of butter for 10 cents Il pound that would net nc 75 cents easy, if had it, or any like it, to sell now. That was before the Erie railway came through here aud put us up to selling our milk instead Of making it into butter We didn't have any lime kept eggs to sell in those days, either. As for taxes paid sl00 for my farm O. one hundred acres when l was getting 10 ccrts pound for butter On tho same farm now l pay S42 30, and have sold my entire dairy of milk for what s equal to more than three times 10 cents pound for butter There Is Il good deal of fhumbug in this mourning af- ter the good old days and know it,

 There is but one other thing that desire to say and that is, our epresentives i'll Congress rank with the leading members of that body. It's representation IS con sidcred as strong in every sense of the word except number as any State in the Union. Now, fellow citizens, let's keep it strong. Let us not be blinded by political prej' udices, and vote tor men whom we know to he incompetent. We can not vote for more worthy man than T. C. McRre, who has built a reputation m Congress for ability, energy and integrity that cannot ] he broken. Let me say to Demo crats. if we exchange an able rep reseutative for an incompetent ore, it will be our own fault. Go ont to the polls, every one of you, and vote for T. c. McRae for Con gress. Tell your neighbor about it, and get him to go and vote for McRae. Nevada county has been honored with the representative and it is the duty of every Demo- crat especially to go out and vote. Let us all turn out and give McRae rouslng majority in this county.

A prominent Greenbacker of Nevada county writes as follows: "I heartily endorse your course in refusing to support MT. Hut. His election would be an outrage on the intelligence of the people, and 1 cannot understand how Col. Garland, Capt.

 And we have many more letters from Greenbackers over the dis trict expressing the same sentl- ment. It is indeed a mystery to us how any man having any State pride can vote for MT. Hit for Congress, for all who know him, know him to be wholly untitted for the position,

THE Wheelers ill Arkansas, who insist upon voting for wholly in competent men for Congress, should read the following most sensible article from their State organ, The heel-En:erprise.
 We see no need of exchangin z a good man in office for one who is incompetent to fill the seat accept ably to the people. Men who are in public trust are as prone to err as private individuals. No one IS perfect--all men make errors. A public servant who has endeavor- ed to do for his people that which he honestly and consclentiously be, lieved tc be right and to the best interests of all, should not oe con demned, denounced. for not being perfect m all hs actiops. Men who are demagogues and present to the people statements that they cannot demonstrate or Substautl- ate do so for the purpose of be- guiling you, and the laboring class of Arkansas should watch with prayerful carefulIess their sitna- ton today. It is not wise to fol- low the beating of every drum or sanction the impracticable advice of new, uninlormed, uneducated leaders. We consider this most trying time for the people of Ar kansas, and appeal to their good judgment and senSibilities rather than their preiudices and short comings. We simply want men of ability and integrity to represent us. and would advise no man to cast his vote for a human being who is not first endowed with these two great fundamental prm- ciplps of equal rights to all.'
