1t is commonly supposed that when
an innocent man is accused of wrong
doing the consciousness of his limo
cence supports him and is a great
comfort to him, SO much so that the
indignity offered his honor and repu-
tation cannot hurt his feelings, be-
cause he is buoyed up by his con-
seriousness of rcctitude. | do not be-
lieve this. | cannot help thinking that
an innocent man accused of a crime
suffers far more keenly from the i'm
putation than a guilty man does. A
man who has really committed a
crime and is arrested for it suffers
fear of punishment, but he has feel
ing deep down in his heart that he is
getting what he deserves, and, besides,
a man who will commit a crime is gen
orally more careless of what people
think about him than is the man
whose whole life has been scrupuous,
conscientious, gentle and harmless.
who has always tried to do right and
| to avoid the slightest injury to his
neighbOr in body or in mind. When
a man of this kind is suddenly held up
to the public as a possible murderer,
when his every action for weeks
has been misIepresented and utterly
gratuitOus falsehoOds have been in
! yentcd-when, say, man of this
/ character is subjected TO these acts Of
persecution, it is nothing short of
tragic. Injustice is always hard to
/ bear. and this is the worst kind, for
/ there seems to be TO redress for idt.
/ From a journalistic standpoint the
I fault does not often lie with the re-
/ porters They have TO go where they
/ are sent and 90 what they are told,
/ and the majority Of them are intelli-
gent and honorable men. The chief
/ trouble comes from irresponsible
! correspondents, who make up sensa-
/ tional stories and tole graph them en-
tirely for the money they make out
Of It
Underlying much Of this terrible in
justice is a fallacy, namely, that the
people have a right to know. The gen
cral public has no right to know every
individuals private affairs. If crime
has been committed the people have
a right to know only what facts are
/ brought out at due and proper trial.
This idea that the police, or any other
authorities. have right to publish
their theories and suspicious, no mat
/ ter how many honorable men and
women they may dishonor. how many
hearts they may break and how many
lives they may ruin by their ignorant
. or malicious impudcnce is mcnstrous,

people should be able to devise some
way Of punishing such offenders

Blessed Are the Meek.

'Meelncss is patience in the recep
ton of injuries. Weakness produces
peace. MecEness is the reception Of
injuries with a belief that God will
vindicate us. Vengeance is mine, |
liill repay. said the Lord Weakness
is proof of true greatness of soul. 1t
comes from a heart too great to be
moved by little insults. 1t looks upon
those who offer them with pity. Meek
ness is neither meanness nor a sur
render of right nor cowardice; but it
is the opposite of sudden anger. Of
malice, of long harbored vengeance.
Christ insisted on his right John
1929 and Paul asserted his (Acts
lG:3O and yet Christ was the model
of meekness. And no man endured
more and more patiently than Paul"

BUYS TWO LOCAL
LUMBER CONCERNS

Thomas w. Ballard of Blytheville
today closed deals with G.. A. Sim
mons & Co., and J. Hayden for the
purchase of their lumberbusinesse
the Simmons plant on the public
square and the Hayden yard on South
Front street, and will take charge of
both as soon as the lumber on the
yards can be invoced. Simmons & Co.
have a planning mill in addition to
their lumber yard, while Mr.. Hayden
has only been conducting a lumber
yard. While no figures have been
given out, it is understood the pur
chase of the two businesses will in
volve a consideration of over so 900.
Mr.. Ballard did not buy the boiler
and engine connected with the Sim
mons plant. - On account of the fact
that day current of electricity will
be started the first of next month, he
stated that he would use electricity
for such power as he desired.
Mrs. Ballard will arrive from
Blytheville Monday and they will
make Conway their permanent home.

Eli Alexander Reid died suddenly
at his home in the Davies & Garvin
addition this afternoon at l o'clock.

Mr.. w. w. Bishop, Assessor, Conway
Ark:

Mr.. w. w. Bishop, Assessor, Conway,
Ark:
DEAR SIR-A letter from Hon. P. H.
Prince to the attorney general in re-
gard to assessment of new improve
ments on real estate was referred to
us for reply on yesterday. Mr.. Prince
took the position that as he had bor-
rowed the money and still owed it,
to make the improvement, it would be
double taxation to assess the improve
ment, as the party holding his note
had assessed it.
When Mr.. Prince gave his note for
the money a new property was ere
ated and the owner of the note as
sessed it. The improvement is the
property of Mr.. Prince and is un-
doubtedly assessible. See Kirby's Di-
gest, section 6973.
The supreme court passed on this
question in the case of Rumph VS..
OudC1lltd oouiJy anu u0NluCd
both the land and the note given in
payment for the land were assessible.
We are glad to know that you are
looking after this class of property.
There is a great deal of such property
in the state and the assessors whom
we have visited are not only getting
the new improvements, but will get
an increase all along the line and will
approach uniformity nearer than last
year.
Of course the new improvements
should be placed on the tax books on
a so per cent basis, the same as other
property.
If at any time we can be of service
to you let US hear from you.
Very truly yours,
J. E. HAMPTON, Chairman.
Judge Prince is still satisfied he is
correct in his contention, and it is un-
derstood he will bring proceedings in
chancery court to test the question.
