In great vogue, largely on account Of

Sixth senatorial district, compos-
ed of independence and Stone

A. G.. Gray, who had previously
won honor and distinction in the
Legislative halls, and who is poll
tician of no mean ability. Mr..
Hinkle easily won over his distin-
guished opponent, however, and
in the following general election
was elected without opposition.
Senator Hinkle bears the dis
tinction of having never been de-
feated for an Office to which he as
pired, which is accounted for by
the fact that he is a man of ability
and keen judgement, and has al
ways treated all the people with
the utmost degree of courtesy and
endeavored at all times to do them
as much good and as little harm as
possible.

33o,542 PUPILS ENROLLED.

There was total of $780, 42 pu-
pills enrolled in the public schools
of Arkansas during the school
year ending in June, 1904, accord
ing to figures complied by the
state department of education at
Little Rock, from the reports of
the county examiners.
A popularity shown in these fig
ures is that there are more white
males in the public schools than
white females, while there are
more females than males among
the negroes enrolled in the schools.
This is found to be true in almost
every county in the state. 1t has

LACK OF SUNDAY SCHOOLS
Many Communities in Great Christian
State of Arkansas Not Reach
ed by Sunday Schools.
Editor The Journal:

Editor The Journal:
DO the good people of our COM
munity know that there are 358,-
600 children between the ages of
. and Is years that do not attend
any bible or Sunday SCHOOL, Do
they know that less than Is out of
every 100 of the entire population
Of this great country Of ours attend
Sunday schooll Do they know
that there are perhaps 1000 com
munlties that no church is reach
ing! Presiding Elder Hays says
there are more than 100 such com
munltles in the territory embraced
IN the Batesyille district of the VI.
+. Church, South. And that ter
rltory takes in only four or five
counties. The American Sunday
School Union is endeavoring to
reach such communities not reach
ed by the churches, and establish
Sunday schools and bible classes.
The community without church
or Sunday school is in bad con
dition.
The Union is the different
churches at work, not as a church
denomination as a whole, but the
individual members of the various
church and Sunday school organi-
cations all over the land. Her
missionaries are members of vari-
Gus churches, and her managers
and publishing committee are
members of different churches.
Her funds are contributed by good
men, women, Sunday schools and
churches of many denominations
throughout the land. And in turn,
the work being done by the Union
is for the churches as whole, and
not for any one denomination. The
Union is an American society,
similar to the American Bible So
ciety. She is an absolute necessi-
/ ty in the land, and it behooves ev-
cry lover of good to assist in the
great work she is doing.
Eighty-fye out of every 100
converted or led to Christ last
year were from the Sunday schools,
while the money expended for the
maintenance of Sunday schools
was only 81 out of every 800 ex-
pended for the support of the Cos
pei. Do Sunday schools pay?
Make the calculation yourself from
the money invested.
Every county should thorough
ly organize for Sunday school
/
work. and not only have county
officers, but each township should
have good Christian worker as
township president. Thus organ
lied. there would, in a short time,
be no community without good
Sunday Schools and churches. Ben
ton and Washington counties each
have a county missionary who
gives his whole time to Sunday
school work. He is supported by
the members of the various church
es and Sunday schools of the coun-
ty. Other counties are support
inc a student missionary who gives
three or four months to the work
each year and attends school the
remainder of the year.
What are we doing as lndlvldu-
ais as churches, and as a Christ
ian people to help the neglected
communities Have we done what
we could! Could we not no more.
Yours very truly,

Believing that a sketch of the
men who will represent Indepen-
denee county in the coming session
of the state legislature would be of
interest to our readers The Jour
nal has arranged to publish a short
sketch of each of them, and will
begin with Senator John A. Hink-
lie.
Senator Hinllle, who is resi-
dent of Batesville, is widely known
throughout the state, having rep
resented this district in the last
legislature. He was on many of
the most important committees,
one Of which was the committee to
visit the state convict farm, which
the penitentiary board had pur-
chased over the protest of Cover
nor Davis.
1t will be remembered that near
~ every member of the last legis-
lature was known either as an an
ti-Dayis man or Il pro Davis man,
and usually voted on all questions
according to whether he was for
or "agin' the governor.
Such was not the case with Sen
ator Hlnkle, however. He align
ed himself with neither faction,
but investigated all matters of inn
portance coming before the body
and cast hissvote on such questions
according to his conception of
whether or not the enactment or
rejection of such measures would
benefit the people. He was de-
servedly popular with the men,
bers of both branches of the legis-
iature and at the close of the sess-
ION was prominently mentioned
for the position Of lieutenant gov
ernor, but being naturally Of
modest and retiring disposition, he
did not encourage the movement
and permitted the honor to 90 to
friend.
Senator Hinkle is a native of
Arkansas, and was born in lizard
county, December 20, 1852. His
father died about three months
previous to that date and John,
together with his brothers and SIS
ters, was left to the care of wild
owed mother.
He was raised on farm and
was educated in the common
schools of the country. At the
age of "a he engaged in mercan-
tile pursuits at Melbourne, the
present county-seat of lizard coun-
ty. His mercantile career was
marked success, and becoming de-
sirious of entering a larger field
where he might have more room
to reach out in the business world,
he removed to Batesville in 1883,
where he continued in business for
ten years.
Shortly after his removal to
Batesville he entered politics, and
I'm 1886 was elected county treas
urer. He served one term as treas
urer, and in 1894 received the APP
pointment of postmaster at Bates
vile. He served four years as
postmaster and is remembered by
many as one of the most efficient
and painstaking men who ever
held the position.
In 1898 he was nominated for
sheriff by the democratic party,
after one of the hardest fought
political battles ever witnessed In
the history of independence coun-
ty his onnOnent being Hon. {. M.

A PHYSICIANS Statement.

Yorktown. Ark. Jan. 11.-Leland
Williamson, M. D., one of our cleverest
physicians, has made a statement, en-
dorsing Dodd's Kidney Pills and say
ing that he uses them in his daily prac-
tice in preference to any other Kidney
medicine. His statement has created
profound sensation, as it is some
what unusual for physician to pub
licly endorse anything in the shape Of
a patent medicine. DIR. Williamson
says:
After twenty years practice in a
sickly and malarious country l have
come to the conclusion that it is al
ways best to use the remedy that will
relieve and cure my patients, whether
ethical Or not.
Il have used Dodd's Kidney Pills
with uniform success in the various
forms of Kidney Disease, Pain in the
Back. Gout, Rheumatism. Infiamma-
ton and Congestion of the Kidneys
and all kindred diseases; l always pre-
scribe Dodd's Kidney Pills in such
cases and can testify that they in

UNIQUE Button Box.

An arrangement for holding but
tons is made by pasting together six
pasteboard boxes, such as are used
by druggists in preparing prescrip-
tions for powders. They slide out like
little drawers, and a button is sewed
to the outside to indicate the con-
tents. A white pearl. bone. fancy or

designed for holding those particular
buttons, while hook and eye, and a
safety pin sewed to another, will read

ages has done service in carrying pas
sengers and the mails between vari-

much quicker and are much more
comfortable. An automobile line is

The car will accommodate twenty
people, in addition to space for the
baggage and mails. The round trip
will cost II cents, or 10 cents for one
way, The machine is the property of

running expenses and divide the prof
