BE a farmer and snap your

We heard a gentleman remark the
other day that all the temperance
people were for Kavanaugh. If
this be true it is very strange that
he was not permitted to speak to
the big prohibition gathering held
in Little Rock recently, especially
so after he had requested them to
allow him to state his position on
the question before that body.
There are few temperance people
n this county, for Mr.. Kavanaugh
but from what we have been able
to gather those who are in close
touch with the situation in Little
Rock are all for Mr.. Donaghey.

The people who have so much
sym pathy for those who have gone
beyond all earthly help, might use
little of it in everyday life to a
good and excellent purpose. The
idea of kicking people when alive
and then for a person to weep over
their grave when dead is what toe
many of US do and is one reason
why the world is no better today.
Speak your kind words to the liv
ing, and when you are dead yor
need not care what is said of you.

If, perchance, copy Of this
paper should fall into the hands of
any who are in search of a new
location-a place where church,
school and social advantages are
given emphasis, and where you can
live out your allotted number Of

we say, like one of old "Come thou
with us and we will do thee good, "
without emphasis on the "do."

Governor DonagheY is right on
the state house proposition, he is
right on the peniteutiary matter and
he is right in regard to the state
tax commission. These three points
alone, if he had done nothing more,
would entitle him to reelection as
governor of Arkansas.

Few business men have more to

Several prospectors have been in
