The other day the Arkansas
senate passed resolution lnvl-
ting Attorney General George
W. Murphy to address the gener-
al assembly in joint session on
the subject of the convict tarm'
ahout which so much has been
said lately. In the lower house
the resolution was defeated by a
few votes. We see no reason
WHY the lower house should have
turned down the proposition 1t
could have done no harm. GOV.
Davis made a vigorous attack IN
his message upon the peniten-
tiarv board, which board pur-
chased the convict farm. Mr..
Murphy says the governors as
sault was unjust and his state
ments false, and further, that he
is prepared to prove it. Why not
let him do it if he can? On this
line the house is evidently not
out for fair play.

Silly And Vicious.

In order to meet the charge Of
inconsistency for imposing negro
officeholders upon the southern
people. while exempting the north
from similar incitations, Roosevelt
has appointed a negro to the
bostiol of assistant district at
torney at Boston. There were
already two assistant district
attorneys; there was not enough
for taem to do, much less a
defas;ss..ssl, for aGotho.o TIE negro
was appointed solely because he
was a negro and lived in Boston,
the alleged hub of the universe.
The logic sought to be conveyed
was if Boston could stand a negro
any other place ought to he proud
to do so Naturally the Bostonese
are extremely disgusted. To
their credit, be it said, that even
in that heaven of negrophiles the
body of the sensible people not
only resent having a negro office
holder over them, but condemn
the president for trying to force
a negro postmistress upon the
people of Indianola. They look
upon Roosevelt's appointment OF
Lewis as silly as we'll as vicious.
Two foolish acts do not make a
.vs36ne any m ! g than two wrongs
make Alright. The sensible white
people, whether in Mississippi or
Massachusetts, are not half SO
far apart on the negro question
as they were few years ago

Has not the south contributed
its quota to the greatness OF the

years paid its proportion of Sl50-

continued to contribute to the
country's prosperity with its cot
ton, its sugar and its many man.

When the shackles were struck
from a million slaves did not the
south alone bear the burden OF
their altered lives and the prob
lem of their maintenance? Is it
not today struggling alone with
the race problem?

Consumption is a human
weed flourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes inn
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption SO
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.
