The Green Forest tribune., 1908-09-18

FEW more honest men have been sent to the legislature than Dr. J. W. Poynor. His crushing defeat, we believe, is attributable partly to the old-time campaign method of trying to arouse the prejudice of voters by rehearsing the events of the dark days of reconstruction. Especially does the force of such "argument" fall when offered as an excuse or justification of wrongs that have been perpetrated in the name of Democracy. We are living in the present time with burning issues of the hour, and the politician who fails to reconize this fact is not the kind that is calculated to appeal to the masses of the voters with any great force.

BOONE county, it seems, has been washing little dirty linen this year. Joe Reef, a Republi- can, was elected Sheriff over Breck Robinson, the regular nominee of the Democratic party. Robinson, it is alledged, got his nomination by fraud. It is also stated that w. F. Reeves, Repub- lican, has been elected over Troy Pace, Democrat, for Prosecuting Attorney of the Fourteenth Ju- dicial district, which includes Boone, Marion, Searcy and New ton counties. Reeves is Receiver of the United States Land Office at Harrison.

Election Result Analysed

The result of the election Mon . day is significant in two ways. In the first place it is a rebuke to unfairness in politics and in the second place tribute to the per- sonal popularity of the Republi. can candidates.
 While there was but little fault to find with the selection of judges of the election, taking the county as a whole, there was a manifest ly gross injustice perpetrated against the Republican commits sioner in not allowing him to have anything at all to say about who should represent his party as a judge in the second ward in Eu- reka Springs, while the person. nel of the Democratic judges in all the wards of the city and a few other precincts was not what the fair element of either party wanted. The landslide in Eureka Springs is largely attributable to this cause.
 The exposure of the frauds two years ago gave the honest yeo- marry the inside track on con- ditions, and while there was to some extent a washing of the garments in the Democratic pri- mary, they lacked rinsing and conditions conspired to furnish the opportunity in Mondays cleo. tion.
 The election machinery had not been disloged from the same powers that obtained two years ago. The Democratic nominees by edict of the party bosses were compelled to lend their in dorsement to the appointment of set of election commissioners, who was not satisfactory by any means to the people, and the election that was held under the fierce fire of public opinion was just fair enough to gain proper expression of the minds of the independent voters and that ex- pression has been given ir un- mistakable language.
 The Republican party is to be congratulated upon it's victory, but it should not arrogate to it. self the full credit for the result. It is due to the assistance of the best class of Democrats and citizens that go to make up any community, and they are entitled to the first credit, and the people of all parties are to be congrat- ulated upon the dawn of new era in election methods in Carroll county.

GRANGER AND RUSSELL
Two Republican Candidates
 Win by Beastly Majorities
DONAGHEY WINS THE COUNTY
Liquor and Road Tax Win
 Both Amendments Lose Out

The turnout at last Mondays election was but very little less than enormous. At any rate, it was a record breaker, and the majorities given two of the Re- publican candidates for county officers, Granger for Represen- tative and Russell for Circuit Clerk, was a little beyond the most sanguine expectation.
 The official figures are not available yet. but the total poll will reach close to 5000.
 Rollo s. Granger wins over Dr. Poyn or by a majority of 386 votes, while Russell beats Bunch to the tune of 52l. The only real race was run by Greg son and Smith for County Clerk, the former winning by 143 votes, which seems rather small when compared with the majorities of Russell and Granger. Gregson, however, is perfectly willing to accept it and be satisfied.
 In the race for Governor, Dcnaghey has carried the county by a fair margin.
 Road tax has carried by prob ably 300, both amendment have lost in the county, while liquor license carried by a small ma jority in the Western district. This, however, does not neces- sarily indicate that saloons will remain in Eureka Springs, as the people say they are now goin g after them by petition.

Fair Catalogue Out.

The catalogues announcing the Sixth Annual North Arkansas Fair at Berryville, Sept. 31 to Oct. 3 is out.
 The business of the fair associ- ation this year is in the hands of J. P. Fancher, he having recently been chosen secretary.
 The announcement which pre- faces the catalogue this year is as follows:
 The North Arkansas Fair Association was organized six years ago by large number of progressive citizens of Car roll county for the purpose of holding annual fairs, which have been held an nually at Berryville for the last five years, and which has resulted in much improvement and good to the people of the county, though not pecunlary success to the association. An annual exhibition of our best farm and orchard products, of our best stock, horses, mules, cattle, sheep, hogs, poultry, grains, grasses, hay, vegetables, fruits and manufactured articles from our growing industries, is an incentive ana encouragement to all the people to strive to produce the very best of every thing. We appeal to every citizen of Carroll county for his and her hearty cooperation in making our sixth an- nual fair the best we have ever had, and as good as any in the state, and thereby not only encourage our farm CTS, mechanics and laborers to renewed effort in developing our county and Northwest Arkansas generally, but stimulate immigration, capital and manufacturing enterprises to perma- nently locate among us.
 We ask every patriotic, ente rprieing citizen of Carroll county to send some exhibit if possible, and please do not fail to encourage this mutually useful enterprise by your presence during the entire four days of the fair.
 Races are again made leading feature of the fair, the size of the purses being somewhat reduced. Fifty dollars is offered in five in- stances: To winners of 5-8 mile dash, first and second days; to winners of the 3-4 mile dash and the gait race, walk 1-2 mile, trot, pace or singlefoot 1'2, go-as-you please, on third day; to winner 1-2 mile hurdle race on fourth day.

 The fair js to held earl fer this year than usual, it being the in : tention of the association to off CT the first attraction of the season with the hope of securing better results than have been had when the association lost out from a financial point, a it has been the , past two seasons.

Goliath, stript from his slight body
the armor Saul had placed upon
| him, because he had not proved it,
and it clogged his agile movements
and in the strength of the Lord, he
ran to brook and chose five smooth
stones and placed them in his shep-
herds bag and when he ran for
ward to meet the great giant he
took one of these stones, and placing
| it in his simple sling, hurled it with
all his strength and faith and gave
Goliath his death blow, showing it
is Gods right hand and His Holy
arm that gives us victory. You
| know that the prophet, Samuel, af
ter signal defeat Of the Philistines,
placed stone and called it Ebenez-
er, or the stone of Help saying,
Hitherto hath the Lord helped US. :"
At the end Of the forty years wan
behring's through the Wilderness, be-
fore the Israelites crossed over into
the promised land, you can tell
me that God commanded that twelve
men should take each stone from
the river, and pile them one upon
the other, as memorial of that
wonderful journey. lest they forget
all the good he had done them, thus
teaching US to ever bear in grateful
remembrance, our past blessings. To
this you can bear testimony that the
King commanded, and they brought
great stones, costly stones and hew-
| ed stones to build the foundation
of that ancient, magnificent building,
Solomon's Temple.
Again you know that a great
stone blocked the sepulcher where
the body of the Savior lay before His
resurrection and that when the an
gels rolled away this massive door,
as was prophesied of old, the stone
(which the builders rejected, became
the chief corner stone of the church
of the living God, that wonderful,
beautiful and mystical, spiritual
structure devised in love and mercy
before the foundation Of the world; ;
and that st. John, in his lonely exile
on the Isle Of Patimos weaves this
humble, flinty substance into des-
cription that fascinates by its sub
Unity. He saw, with the eye of in
spiration, the church take on a visi-
BILE form and wrote, He carried me
away in the spirit. to a great and
high mountain, and showed me that
great city, the Holy Jerusalem, des-
cending out of heaven from God,
having the glory of God: and her
light was like unto a stone, most
precious, even like a Jasper stone,
clear as crystal
While these thoughts passed
through the mind of the Duke Sem
ioT, he regarded the iowiy stones
around him. with an interest al
most reverential and he exclaimed,
Tile groves were Gods first sanctu-
aries, and If We have not the tolling
of bells, or sweet chimes, to call US
to worship, undoubtedly, we find
Sermons in stones" to direct our
thoughts heavenward

salve for the mental anguish and
modification she had endured. She
declared that she had never suffered
from the pains and aches described

Work Horse Parade.
Equine thoroughbreds with aris-
tocratic pedigrees may now take a
back stall. Bill, the truck horse, who
pulls heavy loads along the side
streets and is constantly greeted by
signs warning him to keep next to
the curb and in other ways to make
himself as unobtrusive as possible
will have his day Saturday. Wear
ing his best bib and tucker, the
aforetime plodding Bill will prance
lum beringly along Fifth avenue, as
proud a steed as ever was seen or
that exclusive thoroughfare, and
will prick up his ears in sheer delight
as the thousands of humans applaud
his spick and span condition. The
occasion for this apothesis of the
work horse will be the annual Me
mortal Day parade given under the
auspices of the Woman's Auxiliary
of the Society for the Prevention OF
Cruelty to Animals.
A similar parade was held last
