l.. T. Cooper, whose theory that

medicine throughout the east. Cooper
has convinced an immense number Of
people that his theory is sound AID
his medicine will do what he claims.
Perhaps the most interesting fea-

DAVIS WAS NOT EGGED

The Cotter Courier is in error in
saying that Senator Davis was egged
at Newark. The senator seemed to be
in constant fear that he would be treat
ed to an egg shower, but there was alb
solutely no cause for the senator's
apparent alarm. The people of New
ark are lawabiding and respectable
people, and are above resorting TO
such low and degrading conduct.
Senator Davis was met at the train
by quite a number of citizens and es-
corted to the hotel, where he took sup
per. After supper, several friends
accompanied him to the Ration Hall,
where he delivered his speech, and no
man was ever given more respectful
and attentive hearing, until he launch
ed into a TRADE against Donaghey.
Senator Davis own friends admit
that he provoked the row that follow
ed and finally resulted in his having
to close without finishing his speech.
After the speaking he was escorted
to the hotel by four prominent citizens.
On his way to the hotel the senator
seemed to be in constant fear that he
was going to be egged, but was assur-
ed that nothing of the kind would
happen. Upon his arrival at the hotel
he went Immediately to his room. In
a short time he sent for the Honorable
Geo. L. Grant, who had come up from
Newport to meet the senator, and 1t
was supposed that he wanted Mr.
Grant to undress him and put him to
bed right side up, but in a short time
a freight train came in and MIR. Grant,
assisted by some other friends, led the
senator over and put him aboard the
train and they went to Newport.

every courtesy due him while in New

THE SALOON AND CRIME


A recent examination of the statis-
ties of the Arkansas penitentiary gives
startling figures and more strong
argument against the saloon. Last
year 564 convicts were enrolled. OF
these 3l2 We're from our seventeen wet
counties and only 252 we're from the
fifty-eight dry counties. Using the
vote cast for governor in 1906 as the
basis of calculation (the census of 1900
being out of date) only twenty-seven
per cent should have come from the
wet counties: but the per cent was
actually ffty-fve. On the same basis
the criminals from the dry counties
should have been seventy-three per
per cent instead of the forty-fye per
cent actually found. Do licensed sa-
looms pay when they double the criml-
nal population of a county?
