PLURALITY for D'y. fssso
The Mena weekly star., 1910-02-03

cold storage in the various distribute ing centers IA million head of cattle. 6 million calves, g million sheep and lambs and 30 million hogs. These stored provisions are in addition to the millions ot pounds of butter, millions of cases of eggs, etc, which are also in cold storage warehouses
 If the staten ent of facts IS dis puted it's verity could possibly only be decided by a governmental inves- tigation of them. But aside from it's apparently accurate sources, 1t IS known that for ten consecutive years the United States has been producing "bumper" crops of corn and wheat and all sorts of foodstuffs, and still there is lack of the visible supply to meet the country's demand for food.
 The question then is, Is the supply "short" because we have eaten it all, or is it short because a great bulk of it has been drained off into reser- voirs which greedy manipulators of the markets control? ? In other words, is the economic law of supply and demand operating in the ordi- nary way or is it being artificially tempered with, so to speak, in order to get the country's prosperity into the pockets of the few through the medium of excessive prices for the necessaries of life?
 Now, If a gov rnment, if an or dered society, do not exist to de- termine just such questions as this of the cost of living-if it does not exist to see to f hat people who are williag to work can get wholesome food to eat in the sweat of their faces, then what does it exist for ? Is it to do nothing except to pass special privilege laws for tariffs and land grabs?
 Not all the boycotts and counter boycotts that are blindly used to 'get even," or that are conjured up in fevcrei imaginations, can get in telligently to the causes of disorder or apply intelligent and lasting remedies. INQUIRIES AND REGULA- TONS BY THE COMMONWEALTH CAN If to find out what the Square Dea is be "paternalism," then let us be "paternalists." And If to prevent robbery is 'paternalistic," what, ir the name of good sense, is the crea tion of tariff benefits and franchises and monopolies? Wouldn't little "paternalism" on the side of tho Square Deal be a relief from ths continuous paternalism which per mits the many to be plucked by tho few ?-Kansas City Star.

 There is vast difference between dignity and the swell head.
 When the minister comes to dinner everybody enjoys it except the family.
 One of the luckiest things that can happen to man is not to count on his luck.
 People spend so much time talking about what they they should do, that they neglect what they can do.
 If father has favorite among the children, the rest of the family soon find it out and get the favorite to boss him.
 Don't spend your time looking for an easy job. The easy jobs are in politics and cost more than they are worth.
 A certain South Atchison girl is not yersed in music, painting or lit erature, but when she milks the COW she can throw two streams into bucket all right enough.

and when the government owns it's own mail cars, the deficit wiil-be greatly reduced without finding it necessary to impair the service.
 The mail service is primarily the peoples, for it gets c'oser t. every one than any other department of the government.
 They are therefore entitled to g maximum of efficiency.
 This would certainly not be in sured by an increase ill the rate to be charged for second class mai matter, which includes newsI a .ers and magazines.
 The sins of the deficit are not al, blamable upon this arm of the ser vice.
 Ina statement issued by the asso- ciated magazines occurs this state ment:
 The magazines demand that Con- gress shall provide for competent cost expert to work in the post office department and that this expert shall be given full opportunity to get what the department has never pro- duced, the figures which show just how much the second-class mail is costing the government in excess of the revenue it produces.
 That is fair-le the reformers know what they are doing before they make some radical mistake.

FOR SURVEYOR.

In the regular place in this issue of The Star will be found the an nouncement of S. B. Robertson, who asks for the nomination for county surveyor at the hands of the Demo- cratic voters of the county.
 Mr. Robertson has been a resident of Mena for a number of years and has been prominently connected with a large part of the surveying in the city as well as over the county. He has had 30 years experience in this line of work and feels that he is cap- able of giving the people the best of service.
 Aside from his surveying, Mir Robertson is fine draftsman and has made a number of valuable maps for Mena and Polk county.
 Mir. Robertson also states that if elected, he will see that the survey or's records are kept at the court house.

 A GREAT INDUSTRY PU SHIN l SOUTHWARD.

The state that joins Arkansas on the north last year produced eggs to the value of $45, ,O00, 000-more than the value of either it's ceral crop or great mineral production. This is an interesting fact in itself, show ing as it does the immense value of a growing industry. But of much greater interest to Polk county is the organized effort being made to develop the poultry business of Mis- souriint the Ozarks, along the southern border of the state, it being pointed out that that mountain country is best of all fitted for profitable pc ul- try growing. It is shown that lands can be had there at from S3 to SIP per acre, the climate is better than farther north, etc.
 This is added testimony to the claim that Polk county is the ideal spot of all for producing poultry and eggs at profit. Lands can be had as cheap or cheaper. The climate here is considerably more mild than that of southern Missouri, the alti- tude is even greater, green feed that all important stimulant to egg production-can easily be had the whole year around, and chickens here do not suffer from the diseases that prevail in the lowlands.
 And in the face of these facts, many thousands of dozens of eggs are being shipped to Little Rock according to the capital city papers, from points in Illinois near Chicago Such a condition is fine for the railroads and express companies but in the same proportion saps the substance from our state and i'm. poverishes it's people.
 Certainly Polk county holds out tempting opportunities for people who would follow this pleasant anc profitable industry and at the same time live in one of the most favored spots in the world in climate, health and beauty.

An Article Valuable to Arkansas

The Gazette publishes today by permission of the Saturday Evening Post "The Story of an Arkansas Farm" which appeared in the Janu- ary 22d issue of that paper.
 This article, by William R. Ligh- ton, tells how man and his wife left Nebraska, where they had dreamed about and planned for a home. but dreamed and planned seemingly with no hopes of realiza- tion, came to Arkansas, bought near Fayetteville a farm "in the rough" and proceeded to make therefrom a fine farm and home, building a roomy bungalow and managing the farm according to the precepts of scientific agriculture.
 This interesting narrative of actual experience-and we hope all the readers of the Gazette will read it and send it to people in other st; tes says. in part:
 Arkansas ? Yes, sir, Arkansas. On the White river valley, right in the heart of the rk'mountain country. Oh, I know what you're thinking. Arkansas Why not Kamchatka, they had to go out of the world, why AfIr,ff f,lr .lax charm of real remoteness ? But Ar kansas v That's the way we felt about it, too, when Arkansas first be- came one of the chances. That was because we didn't know a blessed thing about it-no more than you know yourself. right this minute. It's been the fashion, this long time, to poke fun at Arkansas, to think of 1t as one of the bv-spots of earth, un- regenerate, unreclaimed, and not worth reclaiming at that. All sorts of jokers and talemakers have taken a crack at it, making it out comical place.
 It land of ire )mparable beauty, of infinite charm of limitless oppor- tunities. We're spotlessly happy here; and the happiness is going to last. What more could body ask The marvel is that millions of others haven't found out this Eden. Here it's lain waiting, years and years, while the home-hunters have been ran | sacking the earth. But they've passed ] by on the other side.
 Arkansas has cheap land for hun dreds of thousands more people who may want to find home and liv- ing. : And we must express here the indebtedness of the state to the Saturday Evening Post for publish ing this article. As a paid adver- tisement it would cost thousands of dollars, for it fills more than two pages and is attractively illustrated. | It should turn the attention of thou sands of homeseekers to this state.

WHY?
house.

It takes a unanimous jnrv to hanQ a man, why should It not also take i unanimous Supreme court to kill a state law ? If people can get together on what they want it ought to stand until the court can get together. The Kansas legeslature, the Kansas Su- preme court and part of the Supreme court of the United States were over- ruled this week by a decision of a divided Supreme court. Isn't that a good deal of power for a few men to exercise ?-Jewel Republican.
 It is fact that many of the most important cases where the peoples rights are at stake are decided by a mere majority of one in the Supreme court-and too often that one favors some big special interest.
 To bring about a change in this condition is a monster proposition that involves a change in the Consti- tuition, but it seems to be a necessity

Gumptiou on the Farm.
(Farm Journal.)

Bought your clover seed yet?
 The Lord loves you; don't be afraid of anything.
 The worst bedfellow in the world is worry; kick it out
 The average farmer will find plcw- shares more profitable than mining shares.
 'It takes money to makes money, " we are often advised. True, but sometimes it takes money to make fool.
 We need not wear ourselves out worrying about what will happen when the soil wears out. Such a calamity will not happen in our time.
 Some men who are not fit to have a dollar. rail at their wives about a ten-cent waste; yet will firmly hand over $2 to the saloon man for "dis- tiled damnation," as one minister puts 1t.
 have seen men and women work ing around the farm or house until eleven o'clock at night, or later, and yet with years of such lost rest and nerve force they were very little ahead. Better go to bed at nine, get a good rest, and get up early, with quiet nerves. Then you can do double work.
 Lime-sulphur wash as a remedy for the rabbit pest: During the last year the lime-sulphur wash which for a number of years has been em- ployed to prevent damage to trees by the San Jose scale, was tried with great success in several localities as a protection for orchard tree trunks against the attacks of rabbits, says Secretary Wilson. The remedy i; cheap. and as a rule single treat ment in the fall appears to protect trees for the entire winter. Iti more extensive use is recommened

The cost of the postal department is becoming very live issue.
 We are told that the deficit is something like ST, ,O00, 600 annually. and the losses incurred in various departments of the business are specified and suggestions made per taining to their cause.
 But somehow they are not convine- ing.

rluST BE ON GUARD

Often it occurs to every newspaper that articles are sent in that in whole or part must be rejected or modi- fled. This often causes more or less dissatisfaction to the writer. The following clipping from the Hill City News states the editors position quite well:
 Its just as though man should tell you that unless you are willing to turn your house over to him entirely when ne calls that he will no longer call on you. Correspondents often in ail innocence write items that it would never do to publish. and no editor can run paper unless he can hold the reins of government in his own hands. u 0""

Taft recommends that postal rate for magazines be doubled and that millions be given to subsidize ship lines. In other words he would con- tinue to have us pay the railroads twice as much for carrying mail as the express companies pay for like service, then force us to "dig up" for the poor ship owners! :! This looks like a three time plan to "skin" us. Moral: Build a railroad or a ship and "get yours.'
