AN INCIDENT.
Riding on a trolley car
Yesterday-not very far
Saw pretty maid who smiled
In a way that soon beguile
My poor heart and made me think
That I'd take chance and wink.
Didn't worry her a Bit
Fact was. I had made a hit.
She continued watching me.
Both eyes dancing full of glee
TILT my brain was in a whirl
Just because of that sweet girl.
Reached my street, had to go.
Really hated TO, you know.
Passing by the maid 1 chucked
Her beneath the chin and elueked
Maybe you think I was bold2

SPRING SONG OF THE CITIES.
In Philadelphia, spring they bless,
Because it brings lethargicness.
In Boston, when the warm winds greet,
The boys read Ibsen on the street.
Milwaukee's glad that spring Is here
1t brings it's crop of red book beer.
In Louisville. when daisies burst,
The 'Kernal' whets his julep thirst.
Springtime to Gotham brings smile,
Fresh paint and hzz at Coney Isle.
B. & o. Book of the Royal Blue.
In Washington spring shows us that
Standpatters still are standing pat
To Cleveland spring brings little gleei
Lajoie still has a crippled knee.
St Louis hears the call of spring
And then keeps right on slumbering.
To Pittsburg when glad spring arrives
Debt-haunted earls come seeking wives,
Beneath her dismal smoky pail
Chicago has no spring at all.
Chicago Record-Herald
Atlanta WELCOMES spring out loud,
It's Coca-Cola for the crowd.
But in Montgomery, forsooth,
Spring falls asleep, and that's the truth.
In gay New Orleans the spring
Puts stegomyias on the wing
In Houston folks say Spring is here"
Exchanging whisky for cold beer.
In dear old Birmingham the spring
Makes fans predict most anything.

A FARMERS WORLD UNION

A new and powerful strand in
the bond that is now drawing all
the nations of the civilized world
together in the interest of peace
and humane progress is the pro-
posed International Institute of
Agriculture, which the United
States has been asked to join.
This organization proposes moth
ing less than a plan of co-opera-
ton among the agricultural inter
ests of all nations in the collection
and distribution of statistics relat-
ing to crops and markets, and 9TH
er information bearing upon I'M
proved methods of farming, the
determination of insect pests, the
introduction of new seeds and
plants, and whatever else may be
of mutual benefit. In other words,
the organization will take eogni-
zance of the fact that although ag'
riculture is practically the mother
of all industries, and the very bas
is of the worlds life in a large
sense, it has been the least organ
lied and united of all, and has suf-
! fered greatly through needless
competition and the lack of com.
mon understanding. The idea Is

SPLIT IN SENATORIAL CONVENTION
Delegates Who Favored Hinkle
Walked Out and No Nomi-
nation Was Made

The senatorial convention held
at Batesville Wednesday resulted
in a split, and the Hinkle men
walked out of the convention.
Seven delegates from this coun-
ty responded to the call for con-
vention, but none were present
from Stone county. A resolution
was submitted by friends of Mr..
Hinkle declaring that inasmuch as
Stone county had refused to send
delegates, Independence alo n e
could not act, therefore the con-
vention would take no action. The
resolution was voted down by a
vote of four to three. The three
delegates favoring the nomination
of Mr.. Hinklk then withdrew from
the convention.
A resolution introduced by Err
nest Neill was then adopted by the
votes of the four remaining dele
gates. 1t recites that great con-
fusion and dissatisfaction followed
the primary relative TO the state
senatorship, first one and then
another of the three candidates
appearing to have the nomination.
The resolution went on to say that
in view of the chaotic donditiou il
was impossible to determine who
the nominee is, therefore that nc
name be certified as the Democrat
/ ic nominee for state senator
This action will be officially re-
ported to the secretary of state as
member of the state election
board.
This virtually means that there
is no Democratic nominee for state
senator and will probably result
in free-for-all fight between Ra
ney, Hinkle and Edmondson, whC
were candidates for the Democrat
ic nomination.

A TROUBLESOME cuss, ESQ.

A man once resided in Skowhegan,
Maine,
Who during long life could never
refrain
From comments on follies and sins
of mankind,
To. which many people are somewhat
inclined.
Hypocrisy, pretense or lawbreaking
prank
Received condemnation, outspoken
and frank.
And sometimes his comments would
stir up muss;
Then, people would say That's
A Troublesome Cuss."
A call came for soldiers to fight for
the flag
Some men full of whiskey, of buster
and brag
Were jumping the bounty or lodging
the draft
Or piling up fortunes by cunning and
graft;
Yet thousands were floclxing to
answer the call.
A leader was sought for, to discipline
all.
They found one, in spite of all red
tape and fuss.
And some people thought him
A. Troublesome Cuss
The law was defied by the vendors of
(Of Sheriff Goodfellow they had little
- fear>,
But the people arose, and they made
square fight
For enforcement of law and for set
ting things right.
There was need of a sheriff who had
a backbone,
Who would execute law if he stood
all alone,
So Neal Dow was chosen He settled
the muss!
But whiskey men call him
"a. Troublesome Cuss."
Whoever distinguishes wrong from
the right,
Opposes things evil with all of his
might,
Who by speech or by pen may at.
tempt to maintain
His views on these subjects by ut
terance plain;
If he stands for sobriety, decency,
truth,
Deplores all the vices destroying our
youth,
And always stands ready reforms to
discuss
He is sure to be known as
"A Troublesome Cuss."
