TO say by way OF morals we don't
think there are any more morals
or necessity surrounding you
from the business end OF it than
there is in our business. II may
be said too, that about 50 per cent
of the people who own autos can't
afford the investment, but that is
none of our business. However
we are disinclined TO indulge in
threats, but we have as yet not
learned To be liberal enough TO
adopt the saying OF the Old Tesla
mcnt when a person smites you
on one check 10 turn around aid
let him punch the other There
fore, say TO you, II you persist in
making warfare upon our calling,
we are not without means at our
command to retaliate, notwith-
standing the Biblical adage of the
Old Testament"

Now what do you think of that
for bad-feeling, bad grammar, bad
and faulty biblical knowl

Died at Hunter.

Mr. John Decker, a prominent stock man of Arkansas and Louisiana, died at his home Sat urday morning at Hunter at the age of 76 years. He came to Arkansas in the year 1887 from Bellevue, Ohio, and has engaged in the stock business extensively eve#since. He was a man that promoted the interest of the town and community and always heard the call of those in need at any hour. He will be sadly missed by all who know him. He was a member of the town board and has served the county as magistrate for 8 number : of years. His character was above reproach by all who know him as to honesty and integrity. His remains were shipped to Belle vue, Ohio, his old home for bur- ial and was accompanied by Mrs. Decker and step-son, c. H. Pos ton, where he was laid away in Bellevue cemetery.
