The Nevada County picayune. (Prescott, Ark.) 190?-current, 1908-04-23

Prescott should take a decided
stand for the better enforcement
of the law. He ask to hear from
others present, and many re-
sponded.
Mr.. O. S. Jones offured a reso-
luton that the chairman appoint
a committee of seven to formu-
late plan of action and report
to the meeting. The resolution
was adopted and the chairman
appointed O. S. Jones, H. E. Be-
mis-, M. w. Greeson, J. M. Pitt
man, J. S. Regain, P. S. Harrell
and Jno. A. Davis.
This committee retired and af-
ter several minutes deliberatlon
returned and reported by offer
ing a resolution that a committee
of seven be appointed to assist
the county and city officers in
enforcing the law, and to assist
in every way possible to break
up lawlessness in our midst,
which report was adopted and
the chair appointed the same
committee.
No malace was injected in the
me citing. The entire procedure
was cool and deliberate, but car
ried conviction to those present
that the citizens were alive to the
fact that NOW is THE TIME, and
as a result of the movement the
Picayune is glad to herald to the
people today that the work of the
council and mass meeting and
citizens's committe has been very
effective, inasmuch as three of
the persistent law breakers have
gone before the committee and
officers and admitted to them
that they have been violating the
liquor laws for some time, have
promised to discontinue the bust
ness, repented and asked for
mercy. The committee and off,
GERS have not yet decided as to
what course of prosecution, if any,
shall be dealt out, but it is the
general consensus Of opinion that
justice, tempered with mercy,
will be the result.
1t is not the purpose of this ar
ticle to point out the individual
parties who have made these con-
LESSONS. They have done right
and it is not our aim, nor should
it be any good citizens aim, to
pick out the individual as a tar
get.
1t is the law breaker and not
the individual that must be
crushed, and lnasmuch as this
has been accomplished for the
present at least, the purpose of a
good newspaper, the moulder of
public sentiment, has been ac-
complished.

NIGHT SCHOOL FOR CATHOLIC
BOYS.

Some ten days ago 1t was stated that
II was the intention of Rev. Father
Csrne to start a peculiar sort of night
school for the Catholic boys In Alexan-
dria TO keep them from the street. The
handsome rooms which had been pre-
pared at cost OF about 5000 were near
" finished, the money having been given
by two friends, and the only question
was where the boys we're to be found.
That was the most difficult part of the
scheme, but while others were doubtful
Rev. Father Osrne's confidence was
fixed. He has very large library and
he fixed the books, SO many OF them as
could be held by the many shelves;
placed upon the walls twelve or more
pictures OF the cadets of the corps which
had distinguished itself in the various
professions and camps, especially at
Yorktown, where it Wed with the Vir-
GINA Military Institute, which was the
guard of the then governor, while Gen.
Fitzhugh Lee took them for his. They
bore the fatigue and the soldiers fare,
eliciting the public promise of the gen.
eral and his friend Of the Confederate
army, Col. O. G. Wertenbaker, who
gave testimony to the cadets 10 public
prints to assist the ladies In giving them
the finest equipment then possessed BY
any soldiers. Monday night last was
fixed for the first meeting of the boys
and twentY-one appearing the school
was organized. Last night the number
had risen to thirty-oDe, from all qusrtcrs
of the city, and the effort will no doubt
be A complete success.
