EDITOR VoIcE:-Thinking perhaps a
few words from NV. Arkansas would be
appreciated by the many readers of the
VOICE, venture to send a few lines. L
have been a constant reader of your
splendid paper ever since its origin, and
I am sure Sumner county has never pub
lished paper which has defended the
laboring mans interest as has the un-
unfinching VOICE. May it long live to
defend the rights Of the people-until
trusts, combines and legalized robbers
shall be blotted out of existence.

town and wanted to get into the store to
purchase a pair of shoes. Mr.. Moon
separated from Alva and went back to
the store. When nearing it the stranger
dropped back a little and struck the mer-
chant with sand-bag. Alva heard him
scream and rushed back to the rescue,
arriving in time to see the robber escape
and prevent him from relieving his vic
tim Of what money he had on Lis person.
He was carried home and in a critical
condition. As yet no clue has been dis
covered, but we predict very warm and
unpleasant time for the guilty one if he
is caught.
