When the above article. from the st.
Louis Post-Dispatch, was read by the
shoe dealers of our town they immedi-
adopted the following agreement:
WHEREAS, We believe that every
American citizen has the inalienable
right to vote as he pleases, and to work
by honorable means for the party or
candidate of his choice, and
WHEREAS, We believe all attempts
on the part of employers to coerce their
employees, or to punish them for the
exercise of this inalienable right guar
anteed by the Constitution of the
United States, is wrong in morals and
subversive of all free government, and
WHEREAS, The Geo. II. Dittmann
Shoe Co. of st. Louis, Mo, has, by the
dismissal of Mr.. Cox, as shown above.
sought to punish him for the exercise
of this right,
THEREFORE, We, the merchants of
Green Forest, Ark, irrespective OF
party affiliations, do hereby express
our unqualified condemnation of the
action and language of the Dittmann
Shoe Company. We further agree and
pledge each other that in the future We
will buy no goods of the Dittmann Co.,
nor handle any goods manufactured by
them. In this patriotic resolution we
ask all American merchants who believe
in a government by the people to unite
with us.

the confident BELIEF that each came Off
victorious. +a. =
Two valuable lessons can be drawn from
the discussion. First, most silveritcs attend
political meetings ns Bryan ciaquers. and
are partisans through prejudice and not
from the dictates Of reason. The other les
son is that Joint discussions prove nothing,
convince nobody and should not be encour-
aged.
IL is exceedingly annoying TO attend n
meeting AID be compelled to listen to such
boorish demonstrations as some of the sill
vcriics made last night They evidently
represent tue Scum of Americanism, or
they would hayef accorded an opponent

DAVIS like a paSk. of coyotes, and seemed
IT, delight In pandemoniacal manifestations
These same fellows, when aroused to
partisan frenzy would overturn a govern
ment and pull downthe pilla rs OF prosperity
on theirown heads They are not possessed
of calm reasoning faculties. nor do.they
desire To be convinced of tn e truth or falsity
OF an econoniiolquestion. They are consti-
tutional Gisturbers of settled conditions,
anu would jump. into hades If their act
would injhre prosperous citizen. They
are mol BrEanitcs AZ Il matter Of choice, but
because they c,tnnothelp it.
The last lesson needs no elUcidation.
While oratory is pleasant to listen to, it
usually lacks the logic of reason. 1t gen.
orally appeals To passion without present
ing clearly stated facts, and consequently
cannot always be relied upon to substan-
tate an argument. Language in cold type
conveys different impression. If the
writer is not clear or has no argument
lie seldom Commands a reading. But II he
gives facts and asserts truth without eva
sion his statements are accorded a respect
ful hearing.
The more intelligent voters rely on read
ing for Information on public questions, and
not on joint debates.
Argument in print educates and insures |
