THE SOUTHERN CRACKER.

Very late-but better late than
never, the big northern journals are
beginning to acquire correct con-
ception of the actual situation in
Dixie. Thus, the Washington Post
has an editorial upon THE CRACK
Err OF THE SOUTH, in which the
following occurs:
One of the foremost men the South
has sent to represent cotton State
at the Capitol said some three or
four years ago of his section, "The
Cracker is on top" In Mississippi
they call them the "red necks."
Politically the old South survived
the war and held the dominion until
the advent of the last decade of the
nineteenth century. Then it was that
Mr.. "Cracker" asserted himself. Mr..
Tillman. himself SOFT of Rienzi, put
himself at the head of the move
ment in South Carolina and banished
from public life Hamptons and But
iers. Perhaps not even Calhoun, or
Lowndes, or Hayne, could have with

cess.
All of which is in precise accord
ance with the facta. But the Post

Referring to the 18th Amendment

REFERRING to the 18th Amendment,
the Baltimore Sun says:
This amendment provides that no
state shall make or enforce any law
which shall abridge the privileges or
immunities Of citizens of the United
States; nor shall any state deprive
any person of life, liberty or prop
erty without due process of law; nor
deny to any person within it's juris-
dlction the equal protection of the
laws This loosely worded-or, to
be more respectful to it, this compre-
hensive-clause has been made the
prctext of overriding state courts
and state legislatures The tendency
to this contempt for state authority
IS on the increase, following the lead
OF the present Federal Administra-
tion."
We fail to see great deal of logic
in the argument. The Constitution
provided for the establishment of a
Supreme Court whose express func-
ton It should be to ''override'' both
state courts and state legislatures
should they transcend certain bounds.

The above graphic description
which applies to very southern state
shows what kind of results may be
expected from .red-neck". rule. In
some southern states the results are
even worse; as for instance in Arkan-
sas where, ever since the meeting of
the legislature in 1905, the grand
juries have been indicting the ex-
members for boodling, grating and
receiving bribes Such legislature
invariably comes in with such can
didate for governor as Hoke Smith.

The End Of
Two ROIllanceS

1t was beautiful afternoon. Down
the dusty road came horse so slow
~ that his feet scarcely made a sound,
while the rider idly held the lines in
his passive hands and let the horse
take his own gait.
Judging by his distracted look, the
beauty of the day made no impression
upon him, except in a general way;
he wore dark gray travelling suit
and soft felt hat was pushed back
on his head, showing broad brow
and clear cut face, from which looked
honest gray eyes that had very sad
expression just now.
He was thinking of a time two
years. before when he had ridden down
this same road, and by his side a
slender, graceful girl, whose laughing,
plquant face was raised to his own,
and whose dark eyes were, he thought,
the most beautiful in the world
Life seemed very bright then, but
now-how the old world had changed!
Two years before, Frederic Smith,
M. D. had come down to this quiet
neighborhood with a college friend
to fish, hunt, and otherwise spend
probably a few weeks vacation.
He was just out of medical school,
had comfortable fortune in his own
right, friends by the score and con-
tented disposition; what more could a
young man wish for? Alas! After two
short weeks in Bloomwell, all this
changed, and he knew that the things
he had counted. Of value, were nothing
to him now.
What use a fortune, with only him
self to support: what use to win a
name as a prominent physician, there
was no one to share the honor of such
position. So he argued to himself,
and all because one dark-eyed girl
laughed at all his compliments, told
comical stories of other young M. d.
and openly declared that young men
with money seldom won eminent posi-.
lions.
Kate Allen was the only child OF
Judge Allen, lawyer of Bloomwell a
rich, contented country gentleman,
who enjoyed his money, his home, his
fine Kentucky horses, and most of all.
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1907-09-07

his pretty daughter Kate, who since
her mothers death, had been his con-
slant companion.
Then there came time when Miss
Kate's face seemed to take different
expression, and even Aunt Jane Aus
ten, quiet, little old maid, whose
place adjoined the judges, saw and
felt the change.
Aunt Jane had known her since
she lay in her arms a tiny, laughing
baby, when she had spent many hap
py days with Kate's mother, who was
her dearest friend, and after the child
was left motherless. she turned in
stinctively to her mothers friend, who
encouraged all her condolences, and
who had petted, spoiled and loved her
all her life.
After Frederic Smith came out from
Louisville for his vacation. even Aunt
Jane saw change in her favorite,
until she came one day. all smiles and
bushes, and told her Of her promise
to marry Fred, and of how very. very
happy she was. Fred came that even
ing looking very proud and handsome,
as he told the same story.
They were not to be married for a
year, and in that time Fred would
have established his practice, as Kate
said, with youthful confidence.
Then came the quarrel and the en-
gagement was broken. She had given
him his ring and said she never want
ed to hear from him again.
And so, after two years absence
Frederic Smith came riding down the
road, and paused at last at a tiny,
uncovered cottage. A woman of
uncertain age, but whose hair was al
most white, was gathering roses in
the garden.
The young man threw the lines over
post and was at her side in mo-
ment, a glow of genuine pleasure in
his face and shining from his gray
eyes.
Aunt Jane, am. so glad to see
you," he cried, and you look just. as
you did two years ago; how, have you
been all these long weeks e
She answered that she had been as
well as usual, and then they sat down
on the vine-covered porch for an old
time chat. She asked Of his life and
his practice in the two years The had
been away. but through 1t all, there
was touch Of dignity and reserve
that somehow did not seem quite nat
ura to Fred, in his memory of the
kindly little woman.
Aunt Jane" he said at last. How
Is Miss Allen Kate?" he added. II
could not talk of her to anyone but
you, nor even you, at first, but should
like to know II she be well and happy.

If an editor makes mistake he has to apologize for it but if a doctor makes one, he buries it.. If the editor makes one, there is lawsuit, swearing and a smell of sulphur. buff the doctor makes one there is funeral, cut flowers and a smell of varnish. The doctor can use a word a yard long without knowing what it means, but if the editor uses it he has to spell it. If the doctor goes to see another mans wife he charges for his visit, but if an editor goes to see another mans wife he gets charge of buck shot. Any old medical college can make doctor, but can't make an editor. He has to be born When doctor gets drunk it's a case of overcome by heat, and if he dies it's heart trouble. When an editor gets drunk it's a case of two much booze and if he dies it is a case of delirium tre- mems.

Mrs. Hayhurst Dead.

Died at her home one and one half miles west of town at 6 o'clock a. m. June 3, 1907, Mrs. Elizabeth Hayhurst aged 56 years, wife of Ben Hayhurst, after chronic illness, covering a period of several months. De- ceased was a daughter of the late Jesse Tabor. Mrs. Hayhurst had been consistent Christian and and church member for the past thirty years. She was concious up almost to:the very moment that death claimed her and fully re- alized that she was passing away, leaving the strongest possible evidence of hope in the here- after. She bade all farewell, securing promise from each member of the family that he would meet her in heaven. In- terment was made in the Owens cemetery at 10 a. m. Tuesday, services being conducted by Rev. c. T. Edwards.

Another Close Cali.

Jeff Foley, who lives near the old water mill on Long creek, had close call for his life Monday evening and his escape may be accounted for only by his cool headedness and presence of mind MT. Foley was on his way to AL pena with a load of cross ties and just as he drove onto the railroad track at a crossing just beyond Alpena, the west bound passen- ger came crashing around the curve at full speed. Mir. Foley, realizing his perilous position, rushed to the front of his wagon and jumped. Just as he jumped the engine struck the wagon and made kindling wood of it but the team was off the track and they also escaped uninjured. The train was stopped and a number of the passenger and the crew went back to the scene of the ac. cident. They were agreeably surprized to find MT. Foley able to sit up and tell how it happened.
 Both this accident and the one which happened at Coin sid- ing last week happened with the west bound passenger in charge of engineer Moler, one of the most cautious engineers on the road. It was no doubt impossible
 for the engineer to stop his train
 in time to prevent either of thu accidents.

ROLLER MILL SOLD TO A
 STOCK COMPANY.

A stock company, composed of Messrs. J. c. Wilson, T. s. Phil lips and John Reeder of this place and number of the leading citi- zens of Urbanette has been or ganized and the Green Forest roller mill has been bought by the company. The parties inter- ested in the company are in ad- dition to Messrs. Wilson, Phillips and Reeder are J. s. Minnick, R. s. Cole, M. M. Ambrose, Ellis Bradley, Bob Ramey, Edgar Cole, all of Urbanette and B. o. George of Berryville. The com. pany will be incorporated with an authorized capital stock of $20,- 900 of which SIP, ,0O0 will be paid up. Some new machinery will be placed in the mill in time for the handling of the new crop and the plant will be made one of the most complete in this section of the country.
 The members of the company at Urbanette are each large wheat growers. It is estimated that these gentlemen will raise more than 15 thousand bushels of wheat on their own farms this year,
 This is one of the strongest companies organized in this par of the country for the transaction of any kind of business and the milling businese in their hands is bound to be a success.
 ,, The formation of this company is in a great measure the result of the industry, perseverance and business ability of MT. J. c. Will son, who has been working con- stantly since his connection with the mill to place company with large means behind the business.

STARTLING DISCOVERY.

A discovery made in The Tribune office this week has caused the editor a great deal of serious meditation and a number of times he has been right on the verge of nervous prostration at what has apparently been an effort to murder him outright.
 Monday evening Winfred Pot ter, foreman of the job depart. ment, went to the stationery de- partment to get box of envel- opes. Upon opening the box he discovered the first package to be badly used up and upon nak- ing further examination he found that load of turkey shot had been fired into the end of tn he box, the shot passing partly through and lodging in the bunch of envelopes in the end of the box.
 When or how this occurred we are certainly at q loss to deter. mine. Whether it was done by some offended citizen who poked his old musket in at the door in our absence and took shot at poor us or whether it was a friendly salute fired by some de- linquent subscriber in response to request to come in and settle up we may never know but the box is here to show for itself that it has in some way received a charge iron. a shot gun.
 We have no objections, what. ever, to our friends being sociaI but it is a little expensive to have our stationery department shot full of holes, especially when the present high prices are prevail ing.

Every Man His own Doctor.

The average man cannot afford to employ physician for every slight ailment or injury that may occur in his family, nor can he afford to neglect them, as so slight an injury az the scratch of a pin has been known to cause the loss of limb. Hence every man must from necessity be his own doctor for this class of aiiment. Success often depends upon prompt treatment, which can only be had when suitable medicines are kept at hand.

Closing Exercises of the Ozark
 Normal

Notwithstanding the heavy rain, a fair audience greeted the clos ing exercises of the Ozark Moral on both nights. On Thurs day night at the Baptist church Rev. Spurlin of Berryville de- livered a most thoughtful and profitable sermon to the grad uates on the subject of "Have a Purpose in Life." The songs were furnished by the Graduat- ing Class which has been noted ali year for the high class of it's music and much praise was given them for the smoothness and sweetness of their singing.
 On Friday night at the Metho. pist church the twenty four graduates were greeted by an appreciative audience. The music furnished by the under- graduates was fully equal to that of the night before.
 The program announced last week was carried out to the let. ter and was highly complimented by those present. The work of the speakers showed their natural talent and their thoughts and manner showed moral as we'll as intellectual training. The cen- tral thought of the whole program seemed to be that it is the work of true school to build nobility of character in it's pupils as we'll as intellectual strength and that this work has been especially well done in the Ozark Normal. Sev- eral of the speakers directly and the program as whole made an earnest appeal for the final rebuilding of the Normal.
