AS THE JOURNAL SEES IT

Some people seem to think that
their subscription to a newspaper
carries with it the right to dictate
the editorial policy of the paper,
but those who think they can die
tate to The Journal simply be-
cause they are subscribers, will
find themselves badly mistaken
We believe that we come about as
near giving our readers the worth
of their one dollar year as is pos
sible for local paper to do in a
town of this size, and we hardly
feel like throwing in with each
subscription a certificate giving
the subscriber authority to say
what our opinions shall be on mat
ters of public interest.
The Journal never advocates
anything it thinks would prove

People in this part of the coun-

age being wrought by the Next
can cotton boil weevil in Texas.
Farm and Ranch says the travel
of this insect across Texas and
Louisiana has shaken the cotton
farming system as though an army
with cannon had invaded the coun-
try. The great industry of the
South is consumed as though by
fire. 1t eats out the prosperity of
the individual and the community,
depopulates counties and shakes
the financial standing of the state.
A farmer in Eastern Texas, where
cotton is the staple crop, writes
that paper that instead of gather
ing thousand pounds of seed cot

about hundred pounds. His con-
dition is only typical of the gener-
al condition over nearly the entire
cotton belt of Louisiana and Tex

canning factory at Paragould has

opened August /, and since that
time the cannery turned out So, 600
cans of tomatoes, all of which
found a ready market at home.
The farmers of Greene county will
plant more tomatoes next year. :"
The journal has repeatedly called
attention to the growing need of a
canning factory in Newark. but
the people seem very Indifferent
about the matter. There is no
reason in the world why can
ming factory here would not pay,
and unless the citizens of Newark
get a move on them and make
some effort to get some industrial
enterprises of this kind, they will

detrimental to the welfare of the
community. In other words,
when we take sides on any issue
we carefully weigh the matter,
using as much reason and common
sense as we are able to muster,
and then advocate that which we
think will prove the greatest good
to the greatest number. The well
fare of The Journal depends, to a
large extent, upon the welfare of
the community and for that reas-
on it would be worse than foolish
for us to advocate anything that
would prove detrimental to the
community. OF course we are
human and may make mistakes
we don't claim to- be perfect but
The Journal can always be depend
ed upon to speak its sentiments,
honestly and fearlessly. We grant
others the same privilege and
think none the less of any man be-
cause he differs from us; and fur
thermore, if be wants to place any
reasonable argument before the
public bearing upon his sideo of the
question, he will always find the
columns of The Journal open to
him.
If this isn't absolute fairness,
we are free to confess that we do
not know what fairness is.

A good school is an important fac

The Newark journal., 1906-10-05

The Journal notices that there
is some talk of changing the course
of the proposed drainage ditch,
and, instead of turning south at
Newark and running into Mud
creek, to continue on an eastward
course into Black river. This is a
much better route in our opinion
than the original route, as it would
drain more territory and would
perhaps cost no more than ditch
on the original route. When the
ditch is dug it should be so con-
structed as to drain as much ter
ritory as practicable at the least
proportionate cost, and if the mat
ter was properly taken up it might
be possible to get the ditch through
on this route instead of the old
one.
The Newark journal., 1906-10-05

There is absolutely no reason
why some enterprising citizen
should not make comfortable
fortune at Newark raising poul-
try. There is always ready
market for poultry and eggs at a
good price and there is no more
favorable location in the state for
the poultry business than Newark.

WAX TAPERS.
Made Today as They Were In the
seventeenth Century.


In the manufacture of wax matches
and the long and slender tapers which
are known as rats de cave cellar rats
the method introduced into France by
Pierre Blesmaire in the middle of the
seventeenth century is still in use.
The method is practiced today in the
Carriere factory at BourG lac Rine,
near Paris. The cords of which the
wick is composed pass into a basin of
melted wax heated by a small furnace.
from which they are drawn through
perforated plate to a large wooden
drum which is turned slowly by hand.
The operation is repeated two or three
times, the size of the hole through
which the cord passes being increased
each time. When the waXed cord has
attained the required size it is wound
on large reels in skeins of 400 or 500
meters (about 1900 feet, which are
boxed and shipped to wholesalers. 1t
is also furnished in lengths of from
three to ten meters Cten to thirty three
feeD. folded as often as may be re-
quired for convenient packing. These
tapers are now used chiefly by wine
merchants and by sections in lighting
church candles.
The very short and thick candles,
called veilleuses, or night candles, are
composed of Il mixture of wax and
stearin. The molding machine differs
considerably from the apparatus used
for ordinary candles, although the prin-
ciple of the operation is unchanged.
After the little candles have cooled
the attendant removes them from the
molds and conveys them to women,
who put them in tin cups, which pre-
vent the escape of melted wax during
combustion, and pass them to other
women, who label and pack them.
Paraffined paper is made simply by
drawing long rolls of paper by means
of series of cylinders through steam
heated trough containing solution OF
paraffin and stearic acid and thence to
a large wooden cylinder, on which it Is
Notwithstanding American.

make Hay While the Sun Shines"

There is a lesson in the work of the
thrifty farmer. He knows that the
bright sunshine may last but day and
he prepares for the showers which are
so liable to follow. So it should be
with every household. Dysentery, diar
rhoea and cholera morbus may attack
some member of the home without
warning. Chamberlain's Collie, Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy, which is
the best known medicine for these dis
eases, should always be kept at hand,
as immediate treatment is necessary,
and delay may prove fatal. For sale

TAMPICO MAYOR AGAIN GONE
Village Pay Roll Still Held Up by
Temperance CounciImen.

Sterling, ILL.,, Aug. S.-The village of
Tampico is again without mayor or
city council Mayor Kemp has mysteri-
ously disappeared, and it is rumored
that he has gone to Canada, where he
will await the next session of the grand
jury. before which he is under bond
to appear. Last night an attempt to
pass the village pay roll was defeated
by the refusal of the temperance mem
bers to attend the council meeting.
None of the salaried officers of the vii
lage has received a cent of pay during
the present fiscal year, and it will be
impossible to pay them until the tenn
perance and saloon forces unite and
the mayor returns.
