Captures Good One.

Last December large bunch Of an
telope drifted into the Amber neighbor-
hood in the hills north oftown and were
followed by four big wolves which were
thought to have been gray wolves by
those who saw them Mt n distance. Blu
el, the son Of Z. l.. Amber, has been
trying to capture them for some time
and this week succeeded in mailing"
one on his string Of traps; but II proved
to be n black instead Of gray wolf. 1t
is thought that the other three are
grays. The black wolf is even dreaded
more thau the gray by cattle men. rs
they are stronger and more ferocious
when hungry. The one captured by
Master Buel measured six feet, two in
ches from tip to tip, and two feet, six
inches to the top Of his shoulder. When
Buel found him he was caught by one
foot only and as the trap was secured
by only light chain the young man
showed good deal Of nerve In securing
his trophy. However he quickly dis
patched Gentleman Wolf. and is nstur.
ally, quite proud Of his capture. -wray

In every country town there is sign
at the railroad crossing like this: Look
out for the cars" Now everybody
knew that it was a railway crossing the
day the line was laid and finished. When
the sign was put up it took two days
for every inhabitant to become familiar
with it. In week every small child
could read it backward. Did the rail
road take it down? No. If they had the
warning would have been forgotten in
week and smash-ups and damage suits
would have resulted. One time adver-
tisements act the same way. You must
keep everlastingly at it, like the rail-
road crossing sign.-Ex.

This is the most dangerous time OF
the year to catch cold, and it is the
hardest time to cure it. If you should
take cold, few doses Of Kennedy's
Laxative Cough Syrup will act very
promptly. Its laxative principle cures
the cold by driving it from the system
by gentle but natural action of the
bowels. Children especially like Ken
nedy's Laxative Cough Syrup, as it
tastes so good, nearly like maple sugar.
It is sold by Big Brick drug store.

congressman from Georgia, who fought
for it thru two sessions of congress,
supported by liberal minded, patriotic
members of both old parties and won
despite democratic opposition and that
republican objector who. being accus-
toned to large figures, declared the
system could not be inaugurated with
an expenditure of less than $40, 900, 600.
The sl0,0 appropriation was not a.
vailable until 1895. The first route was
established in Georgia in October 1896.
By July 1897 more than 80 routes
were established at cost of about
SIT each. Quite long reach from
$50, 900, 600.
Metropolitan papers and magazines
of both parties whose editors had re-
gard for truth, gave Mr. Watson the
credit Of being the originator of the r.
F. d. measure and branded as fraudlent
the several claims set up by and for
other parties.
Cannot politicians and political plat
form makers adhere more strictly to
truth? Is it essential to their success
that they should arrogate acts Of merit
to their credit, which of right is due to
others? Is it honest, is it just, or is it
considered good politics." for those
who oppose measure when in its in
cipiency to claim for it, party paternity
when it has proven to be meritorious
and has reached the acme ofpopularity?
Honor to whom honor is due, Render
unto Ceaser the things which are Cea-
scr's."
Apropo to rural delivery. In a recent
ly published report IT is stated that in
the southern states alone there are now
in operation nearly 10000 rural routes.
In Alabama. s96; Arkansas. 3ii; Flor
ida, l40; Georgia 1888; Louisiana, li5;
Mississippi, 625; North Carolina. l,2i5;
Texas, l,745; Virginia $50; South Caro-
lima, 100; Tennessee, l,57l; and more
than 800 new routes are being Planned
for. Total number OF routes in opera
ton cover 237, a69 miles. Lowest esti-
mate OF people served by the r. F. d.
Is 5000, 900.
Notwithstanding all this showing We
poor sinners in this end Of Phillips coun-
ty have been trying the past two or
three years to have Il. F. D. estab-
lished, yet the consumma,ion Of that
much desired object is siill among the
unattained, hidden behind the misty
curtain Of the future. Is ii possible
that those southerners. who were
thought to be deficient In the quality Of
'go-ahead.ativeness" and said TO be
fifty years behind In progresson's race
have outstripped the hustling "Yank"
In energy. enterprise and ''git-up-and-
gitativeness"7 II would seem so when
we are told that hand in hand with the
II. F. d. goes the improvement Of pub
lie highways which means the advance
ment Of every kind Of progress, ease in
marketing crops, in social intercourse,
In much that goes TO make up prof.
porous, comfortable country life.

WHO WAS THE AUTHOR.

ED HERALD:-Th subjoined clipping
is from the STATE HERALD; and ar-
peared in your paper during the politi-
cal campaign of 1904; The same in sub
stance, appeared in the republican plat
form Of that year:
Rural free delivery has enabled farm
ers to obtain better prices for their pro-
ducts. Being brought into daily touch
with the state Of the markets, they are
enabled to take advantage Of informa-
ton heretofore inaccessible to them.
For It's practical help they are indebt-
ed to the party that docs things
the republican party"
This was left unchallenged as il was
supposed the voters of the United States
knew, or, II they did not know, would
soon learn the eroneousness Ito put ii
mildly Of the last sentence Of the above
clipping. But, as the voluminous, not
to say somewhat ambiguous. republican
platform Of 1908 again claims, for the
party, the paternity of the Free Rural
Mail Delivery, and that by 1.-THE re-
publican party-"was established, over
earnest democratic opposition, II would
seem rank cowardice to let such gross
y misleading statements pass unnot-
iced and unchalenged: especially when IL
occurs in connection with the assump-
ton Of other great things the party has
done for farmers upon whom the pros
periiy of the whole country rests"
(Was that flattering bid for Gale
Corntassel's and Hank Hayseed's vote?)
Challenging the truth Of those state
ments, ! will, briefly, present few
facts relative to the establishment or
Inauguration Of free rural mail delv-
cry, I" referring the readers to the Con-
gressional Records Of 1923 for details
and for confirmation OF my statements
On June /, 1892, postoiiice appro-
priation bill being before the lower
house of congress, Hon. Thomas Z.
Watson, representative from Georgia,
offered an amendment TO add TO the np-
propriation si00, 600 for the purpose OF
establishing experimental free rural de-
livery routes. This was met by violent
opposition from democrats and repub-
licans alike: objections and points OF or
der were raised and were sustained by
the chair: the amendment was defeated.
Undismaycd, defeated but not whip
ned, Mr.. Watson rallied his forces and
renewed his efforts during the next ses-
sion; this time asking only the modest
sum OF $40, 600 to be set aside out OF
the post Office appropriation for the ox'
pertinent. Again the measure met with
the same opposition from members oi
both parties and was supported by 9th
ers Of both sides. On Feb. II, 1893, the
amendment was made and was finally
passed by majority Of 3s votes.
All the elements and features as
party measure were lacking as the votei
pro and con, came from both parties
Il will therefore become apparent e
ali candid minds that II twas establish
ed. " not only "over earnest democratic
opposition" but ''oycr earnest" rcpub
lican Opposition" also.
Instead Of being indebted for tbi
practical help to the party that doc
something viz the republican party,
the country owes It to the indomitabl
energy md tenacious perseverance, o
