GEN. ROBT. L. ROGERS
HERE MONDAY NIGHT
Addressed Fair Sized Audience at
the Ration Hall and Made
Many New Friends.

Attorney General Robt. L. Rog-
ers, candidate for governor, adj
dressed good sized audience at
the Ration hall here Monday
night.
Mr.. Rogers began by giving a
history of the railroad tax COM
promise suits. He dwelt upon the
necessity of the equalization of
taxes, and showed where the State
had lost heavily in the comprom-
Use with the railroads. Private
individuals were not permitted to-
pay their taxes at the rate of 90
per cent of what their property
was actually assessed at by the as
SCISSOR, and be did not believe i'm
allowing railroads or other cor
porations to do that, as had been
allowed in the recent railroad
cases. He also mentioned the ex-
brilliant fee received by Senator
Clarke, as attorney for the State.
in etfecting the compromise. Thir-
ty thousand dollars, he said, would
pay the salary of a United States
senator for six years, or would
pay the salary of the governor of
Arkansas for ten years, or pay the
attorney generals salary for
twelve years, yet Senator Clarke
was paid this amount for repre-
senting the State in this s'aflroad
case aHd allowing the railroads to-
eyade the payment of 40 per cent
of the taxes they were justly due
the State.
He referred to the great re-
sources of the State, and said that
If elected governor he would be
the peoples governor and know
no section, and that no clique or
ring was sponsor for his candi-
dacy.
He then branched out into dis
cussion of the charges brought
against him by Governor Davis
His defense of himself was very
forcible, and, Judging from the
vigorous applause given this part
of his speech, we believe it is safe
to say that he convinced the audi
ence that Governor Davis, like
Pat O'Flannery, was taking in too
much territory, and meddling
where he had no business. Gen
eral Rogers stated that he did not
NEEDLE in the senatorial race be-
tween Governor Davis and Sena-
tor Berry; that in fact, he did not
care whom the people voted for
for senator, but he questioned the
governors right to dictate to the
people of Arkansas as to whom
they should elect governor.
He was frequently greeted by
prolonged applause, and we think
it is safe to say that his speech
here made him many new friends
Hon x. O. Pindall of Arkansas
City, candidate for attorney gen.
eral, and Hon. j. w. Crockett,
candidate for railroad commissions
err, also addressed the audience, the
former making splendid speech
which was we'll received.

MAKING OF ALCOHOL
A GREAT INDUSTRY
So Says Uncle John Hindman in Clos
ing His Arguments on the
Prohibition Question.
To The Newark Journal:

Thanks for past favors. By
your permission, | would like to
write one more essay on the mer-
its of alcoholic liquors, their uses
and abuses, then | am done, if not
pressed too closely. | see by the
late diatribes of my friends that
people can become drunk on mon
omaniacism, as we'll as on alcohol,
and of the two intoxicants, give
me alcohol every time, for | would
soon get over that, while the 9TH
er might remain with me indif-
nitely.
As | have said before, all ques-
tions of any importance have two
sides to them, and one side has an
equal right with the other to fair
and impartial hearing. To a stran-
ger who is not acquainted with the
people of our country, the last es-
say of Mr.. Martins would create
the impression that we, as peo-
pie, were nothing but a bowling
mob of drunkards, saloon upon
saloon, and the people fighting to
the death for the contents thereof.
When the actual facts in the case,
as statistics will prove. there are
not two per cent of the adults of
our country that drink to excess,
Our wise Creator creates moth
ing in vain. He creates for pur
pose both the wise and good, and
we, as His creatures, should try to
learn what His purposes were, and
instead of cursing and damning
His work, try to find out for what
they we're intended and use them
accordingly.
Our race has not been in progress
of evolution long enough yet. and
all men are not alike in disposition.
The minds and dispositions of
some men have reached the apex
of human possibility, as it seems
to us now, and from this point on
down we find them degenerating
until they come in touch with the
animal kingdom. therefore there
are great many people of the
lower classes fortunately there
are not many such in our part of
the country who are endowed with
a considerable amount of animal
propensities, and alcohol is the
hydrometre which the Creator has
furnished us by which we may tell
exactly how much animal there is
in man. If man is away from
home, and, as he comes back, it is
seen that he is somewhat booty,
and his wife and children run out
to met him, you may set it down
that there is no animal in his
makeup. But, on the other hand,
if his wife and children make their
exit at the back door as he enters
the front, there is animal there,
and all that you have to do to
determine the species to which he
belongs is to watch him. If he
squalls he is feline; if he squeals
he is porcine; if he banks he is Ca
nine, and if he brays he is assign.
The field in which | have to work
in defense of this God-given bless
ing is SO large that | cannot do it
justice in short essay. Alcohol
accompanied our ore-fathers from
the shores of the Old World to the
wilds of the New, and had it not
been that their brain was fertiliz-
ed and made strong by it, this
country, more than likely, would
have been wilderness today. If
the Indian had had whiskey, as the
