access to transportation line and a

That's pretty queer sight to see in town like Brinkley-a prohibition town at that said a gentleman to the ARGUS man Tuesday morning as the speaker pointed out wagon load of beer kegs. .'l understand that there was nearly wagon load of kegs in that house where the murder was commit ted Friday night continued the speak CT. Whats the matter with your officers9" he asked didn't say any thing just hung my head as he con- tinued his talk.
 But why should we be discouraged over this little breach between officials which is JUST NOW causing this lax ness in the enforcing of tke laws. It is to be regretted that any official should allow his personal feeling to- wards another to keep him from doing his sworn duty. It is to be only about 1 8 CT 20 days longer before the new officials are to go in and if the avowec platform on which they ran for the nominated stands for anything, they are going to change up things. Mayor-elect, T. H. Jackson in mak- ing his campaign for Mayor, and Mar shal-elect R. E. Smith, for Marshal both gave it out good and strong before their nomination. that they intended te see to # that whiskey selling in Brink ley should stop. Prosecuting Attor ney c. F.

 That any candidate for any office should seek to ride into that office by debasing and debauching the manhood of our citizenship with "free whiskey' is to the shame and disgrace of the candidate.
 The flood of Oldfieli whiskey that was used in Brinkley and sent out over this county to influence the vote of Monroe county men, is shame and disgrace to Oldfield and an insult to the intelligent and moral manhood of 1 Monroe county.
 It is a matter of sincere regret that our people are to be disgraced and have the finger of scorn pointed at them because of this shameful cam paign episode. If is to be hoped that those who thought!essly allowed their zeal to down their better judgement and indulged in the use, in any way. cf Cldfield whiskey, will stop to think of what their action and influence will tend to; that they will henceforth allow the higher and more nobler impulses of real manhood to guide them before , they ever again lend aid. in any way, to carrying an election for ANY politi- clan by debauching and debasing their ;fellownan. thereby bringing misery and disgrace to the mothers. wives and i children of our land.
 It is a reflection on your iTitteHii- gence, fellow citizens. to have can- didate seek 10 swim into office on a flood of whiskey, and it doesn't matter whether you are a christian or not. whether you are drinking man or mot, if you have the foundation of a manly character in your make up. II is your duty to resent this insult to the decent citizenship of our county, by henceforth denouncing the use of whiskey in electioneering.
 Young OldfieId, with his clever per sonality and handshaking methods made number of friends in this county. even among those who could not support him, but the kindly feeling of these, is righteously turned into pity and contempt for him at the thought of the flood of Oldtield whiskey used to make the courty % for him by the debauching process.
 May other men profit by Oldfield $ example, fer the reports slow that he . has even lost his own towr ships (Sud- dell in independence county) and fis own county by overwhelming major

From the Sunday at Home.
The other day we gave some Illus
trations of the difficulties travellers en-
counter in interpreting the language
of native races. A doctor tells two
stories relating to India.
A friend of his desired a box OF
matches and looked up the word in a
dictionary. He called his servant and
told his want, but the man failed to
understand. He tried another word
with similar result. Then, making
sure the third was correct, he We
hemently shouted it at the servant
who, this time fled in conyulsive
laughter which he heard re-echoed as
he told the other servants. He dis.
covered later that he had insisted on
quickly being married.
The other story is of an unlucky
railway coolie who stood In amaze
ment near the lady who had called
him, as she confidently assured him
he would find all her paradise and
heaven beneath the seat! She meant
her luggage, but she had two letters
wrong.
