INCREASE IN SCHOOL FUND

1t is estimated by Jno. r. lobe,
assistant state auditor, that amend
ment No. to the state constitu-
ton, declared in effect by Acting
Governor Moore, will increase the
state revenue, by about 1920, 900 q
year. Last year the total revenue
accruing to the state for school
purposes from the two nill tax,
the sale of school lands and interest
on bonds was about 1919, 900.
The overwhelming vote by
which the amendment was adopt
ed, it is thought, will be taken by
the legislature as an expression of
general sentiment throughout the
state for a greater school revenue
and that the full 3 mills will be
levied. As the assessable values
of the state are about the same as
last year, $500, 900, 900, the in
crease in the school fund will bring
the amount close to a million dol
lars annually. This does not take
into account the increase that may
be voted by individual districts,
the amendment raising the maxi
mum of the local levy from ) to {
mills. Arkansas Gazette.

FATAL FALL FROM HORSE.

Tuckerman, Feb. 23.-Wilford
Swan, young man who lived
three miles east of Tuckerman,
was killed in a peculiar manner
while riding to a dance some dis
lance from his home,
1t is said that he had been drink
ing, and when about three miles
from his home he fell from his
horse. He was assisted back into
the saddle by friend who was
with him, but had gone only a
short distance when he fell again.
He was again put back upon his
horse. and this time his companion
mounted the same horse to hold
him in the saddle. After going q
short distance the friend found
that Swan was dead.
1t is supposed that his death was
caused by the fall.

AGED COUPLE LEFT ALONE
= octogenarians Left Childless After
Raising a Large Family
To The Newark Journal:

To The Newark Journal:
MIR. and Mrs. H. F. Mcdonnell
are an aged couple we'll knwon to
many readers of The Journal, and
therefore, this notice of their last
daughters death, Mrs. Elizabeth
Griffin, wife of our friend and
neighbor Jas. NJ. Griffin, will be of
interest to many. This sad event
occurred February 9th at the home
of Bro. Griffin.
Lizzie was born in Bulliner
county, Mo-, June 1st 1862. She
suffered long and much, but she
bore it without murmur.
Her disease was consumption and
this explains her long illness. She
was a kind loving mother. faith
ful devoted wife; an obedient and
dutiful daughter, a good neighbor
and a devout christian woman.
She died as she had lived, trusting
IN her blessed saviour. and there is
not doubt that her sweet spirit
is in the home of Gods people,
where she has joined the loved
ones gone on before.
May God bless her sorrowing
husband and motherless children.
AS said above she was the last
child of Uncle Henry and Aunt
Sis This venerable couple are
now in their eighties. Both are
IN fairly good health, even stout,
for people of their advanced age.
and here in where the case is I'M
usual: They raised six children,
all grown and married, and their
grand children, many them grown
and married, till in the march of
these eighty years of events they
have buried all their children,
and have had born unto their gen
GRAFTON twenty-five great grand
children and nineteen of them are
living. Tinnie was married to
John Gibson, and Catherine to
w. NJ. Eaves, Georgia to w. r.
Rice, Nellie to E. j. Magness,
Lizzie to Jas. NJ. Griffin and Ben
F., to Eta Braden. These bright
girls, once the pride of a father
, and mother and a noble son, are
all, all gone. And today Uncle
Henry and his faithful companion
, stand as the trunk of an old tree
with not family limb or branch,
all broken off. May God bless
these dear old people and lead
= them gently down the steps of
. time, till he shall say, 1t is
enough, come up on high to
meet their dear children, where
death never breaks up family ties
and where no parting can ever
come. JAS. T. JERNIGAN.

In the first place | would ask you,
to eliminate the prefix, Judge,
from my name for the present at
least, when you see fit TO refer to
me In your publication, as the
same has no right there and the
use of the same by you could be
for no other purpose than another
round about way you have Of in
sertlng your lance.
Oh, no! Mr.. Editor you attacked
me from behind, therefore you
was mistaken again; did not have
the bellyache, and as to being fair
minded, will say | usually look at
things from a reasonable stand
point. So now if want to charge
me with unreasonableness because
| wanted you to correct an unin-
territorial error, as you say, we
will leave that to the public to de-
eide, as you and | could never get
together on that point. Now as to
the heinous attack, | am sure the
word was a little bit hard on you,
but speak my feelings and | leave
it to the public to say whetherdor
not your publication wouldl bear
out my assertion. Now you claim
| was the aggressor in this matter
do youl Do you suppose you can
get the people who read The Journ-
al to believe this, when they have
your paper before them to see for.
themselves who started this IN
calledfor harrangue? Now don't
try to retreat on this point; stand
up and defend your position and
while you are at it please let the
public have your motive for bring
ing on this attack. Now Mr.. 2x4
did you not contract some Journal
istic itch, and what kind of 'riety"
did you expect to gain when you
allowed yourself to start out with
your big gun and attempt to
strangle little 3x9 j. Pr Now
as to your denial about referring to
me in regard to the petition, you
very we'll know as everybody else
who were at that meeting that [
was the only township official
there, SO who else could you have
referred to! AS to placing my
self in any peculiar attitude by not
3gning this petition, that is my
private business and it did not
meet my personal approval, there
fore | did not sign it.
Now as to where ! have kept
my Office, that is thing you claim
every body knows, but some how
or another you have been wrongly
informed and for your consolation
| will ar wer that question, since
you so Consistently contend that |
do SO. Since | have been filing
the office of justice of the peace [
have continually kept my Office
under my hat.
Now Mr.. Editor are you not a
little bit mistaken in what you
took for the cry of the babe and
the howl of the cur! So your tar
get is still up, but by the way,
your ammunition seems to be faulty.
You will have to draw in your
range or ram down some solid
shot for those slugs scatter too
much and your big gun will never
hit the bulls eye unless you
change your tactics.
So | thank you again Mr.. Edit

OPPOSES
OPEN SHOP.
Big Employer Says Closed Shop is
a Protection Against Unjust
DISSEMINATION Between Fellow
Workers.

The open shop proposition re-.
ceived Il heavy blow at the hands
of the superintendent of the big
plant of the Brunswick Bake Com
pany. Chicago. Some time ago, in
speaking to Il delegation OF wood
workers from the local union, the
superintendent expressed himself
strongly in opposition to the open
shop, and stated that he dreaded
even the idea of having in his open
shop $50 employees whom he would
have to discipline through his own
efforts, without the assistance OF
the union.
He realized, he, stated, that ''in
the closed shop it is practicable for
the union to check the errauc dis
content and the unjust discrima:
ton against one another, among
the men, from the men. from the
purely stupid, sel1esh point OF
view. If one employe is unjust to
another, redress can be obtained
through the organization through
the shop steward without recourse
to the superintendent. The EN-.
ploy"r or his representative is thus
relieved of the burden of adjusting
difference between one employe
and another. A Aman will stand a

is far superior to the non-nniom
shop in harmony and order''
