Years ago we are told that The
Gazette's artist performed it's won-
ders in that line with his little
hstchet. Now it seems that even

printed under it.-Fordyce Enter

SAFELY CREDITED TO THE DEM
ocRAT."
The ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT is the
representative state capital paper.
The dignity 1t has maintained in the

mouthings OF its contemporaries.
That Little Rock has any friends at
all left may be safely credited to The
DEMOCRAT. Bluff Commercial.

and Woodruff & Co. as having
mulcted the state of S1713.O on

mot A GOOD FINANCIAL INVESTMENT. -
The treatment of Sam Jones by
The Arkansas Gazette will not re-
dound to the credit Of that paper
with the Christian people OF Arkan-
sas, OF whatever faith or order, nor
recon mend that paper to the pat
ro1age OF the Methodists of the
state. The harsh reports Of Jones'
sermons and the severe criticisms
they imply may be sensational read
ing, but will not prove a good finan-
cial investment to The Gazette. -
