THE VETERANS FRIEND
Attorney General Guion Has Declared
the Amendment Is Correct.

The True Democrat of St. Francis
vile says: 1t is well that the fear proved
groundless that an error in verbiage
would invalidate the proposed constitu
tional amendment in behalf of Confed-
crate Veterans. Attorney General Guion
says that the amendment as offered is
correct, otherwise indivent Veterans
would be in a sorry plight. 1t illus
trates how important it is to have a
friend at court. Had that noble Son
of Veteran-the reader can guess
whom is meant as i'll campaign days
that was one of his proudly claimed cpl
thets-been such a friend of the Veter-
ans, there would have been no need af
special tax at all, but the amount
needed would have come out of the reg
ular appropriations, and the Veterans
would now be honored pensioners, not
suppliants for tiny tax. At one time
he carried with his own hands to the
fortunate beneficiary the act giving
$4,000 as a lawyers fee Another time
he hurried" to sign a salary raising
bill for friend. Alas, that the Veter-
ans had no such friend But who tries
to catch car that he is already on?
These old fellows" this noble Son of
Veteran probably reflected, are dropping
off SO fast that a good lot of them will
be gone before 1912, and as had luck
to fool them once, can fool them again.

DASDARDLY ASSAULT
A Lady Attacked ON Her Doorstep by
Man.

Tuesday night at about 10 o'clock as
Mrs Hall was stepping from her house
into her back yard she was seized by a
man who held her fast 1t was dark and
she could not tell if the man was ne
gro or white. She screamed for help.
Her husband was at the front gate COM
ing home. He ran to the rescue of his
wife, who had tainted. The assailant
had fed. The police was notified, but
could do nothing as they had no clue on
which to institute an investigation.
This is a dastardly assault, and fully
premeditated 1t is possible that the
miscreant may be apprehended when
unexpected. Better be on the lookout
for that man.

BETTER SERVICE

Promised.

A meeting of the sanitary and i'm
provement committees and the Board Of
Health was held yesterday afternoon
in the city hall, with Chairman Deal of
the sanitary committee presiding. May
or Dickson was present, with number
of citizens who are interested in a better
system of the vidanguer service.
Against Mr.. Fisher, who has had the
contract for this work, there have been
filed complaints and there is, seemingly,
much dissatisfaction over the service.
A better and more satisfactory service
is promised. Il may be advisable to let
the Board Of Health assume the man

VALUE OF MONEY
1t Con Not Purchase Happiness and Is
Often the Weight that Produces
Misery

Little Rock Democrat: Is there no
wealth but money or stocks and bonds
and lands and property
Will the world never again get back
to the place where all health consists of
wealth and appetite and plenty.
Are we going on this way forever
making money and not merit the meas
ure of the man?
If so, the American youth must aban-
don hope, unless he inherits the money,
because there is no sort of hope for any
young man of this age making enough
money honestly to keep UP with the
wealthy
If public office and position are to be
always measured in the cold minted met
al it self, regardless of many achieve
ments if the way of the world is always
to be measure of bank balances,
where is the use for young man try
ing to climb of heights?
He is defeated before he starts unless
he is willing to be insincere and dis
honest, unless lie is willing to sell his
manhood and barter his integrity for the
wealth, without which the world will
calf him failure.
There is bound to come a change
sometime, money has never determined
the value of anything, and that which
has only a money value is worthless in
the final analysis.
And when money is the standard of
values, the miser can lay just as much
claim as any other man.
What matters it if he does live in a
hovel and sleep on straw and subsists
on crusts and bones, and attire himself
in rags and tatters while he hugs the
shining metal to his breast7
He is millionaire and has just as much
right to the respect of the world, and
its confidence and esteem, as the other
sort of millionaire.
Often even more worthy, because he
at least got his without depressing his
fel1owmen.
Money is Just good to supply the
wants and needs of man, and further
than that, it has no value.
The man who has more than he can
use iudiciously and more than he needs
for his wants, is an unhappy man al
ways.
The money that ought to purchase
happiness, is often the weight that pro-
duces misery.
The time is coming when the world
will get away from this money madness
and men will live of the good they can
do in the world
That man will leave the greatest leg
acy who leaves a name for noble deeds,
and memory of happiness and love
and humanity behind him.
