Dear Ed,-Pleasc allow IN
space in your valuable paper 70
the following, if not asking I,
much.
| am told by good people tba
a Rumor is circulating over tn,
country, which is false and un
true. And [ feel it right a.
]ustc TO YOU and your people TO,
me to correct the same. Apt
.he way | think best is thru the
paper.
| ain told that the Rumor is ]jkf
this, that the Bro. l., S. Garrett
IN other words the Colon,
preacher, has beat me out of m,
farm, and what he owed me, ant
refuses to pay NE what he owes
me.
Now friends this is mistake
Bro. Garrett has never failed tc
DO any thing he has promised te
do with me. I have been in the
Merchantile business for 7 years
in the past. and never in life have
l had dealings with any honeste1
a man than the above Bro sc
TAR: And have had dealings with
him most all the time since ]
sold to him in Oct. 1910. And
they have been so if he had of
been dishonest he would of sure.
ly proved it TO me.
On my first dealings with the
said Bro. | was informed by a
friend from what they had heard
~
about the Bro. I had better deal
careful with him. So J got in
terested so l went to Mtn. Grove
MO. where I had learned the
Colony had Lived for 8 or 10 years
l ask the Bankers of the town if
they knew Rev. L S. Garre tt
and they said certainly we do,
and the talk had with them con-
vinced me he was an honest man,
50 l returned to Norwood where
he has been known for the past
b or Z years, and my talk I had
with the people in that town
made nv opinion very much
stronger that he Was honest.
So l am right here to tell the
people that l heard a good dea,
against the Bro. but ic was al
ways like this, S. and 81 told
me and l never did find out who
SO and so was So I formed nv
opinion that the Bro. Was Door
but trying 10 make an honest
living so closed my deal with
him then he infcrmed me, that
they wanted the crop but had no
money to pay for it at the pre-.
sent but could pay from 25 to so
dolla"s a week till paid for. So
l sold him the crops that way
which amounted 10 $4,000 he
offered to secure me tor the a.
mount but I diden't let him. I
diden t fear his word. So friends
do you know of very many
you would do that way With?
l am right mere to tell you we
got every nickle just as the Bro.
tner agreed to do. Now | don't
belong to no church and are not
Interested in the Colony. But
would be glad to see ill., So peo-
pie let alone, as long as they are
honest and letting other people
a lone, it seems TO me that the

The home Influence is either a
q blessing or a curse, either for
good or for evil 1t cannot be
neutral. In either case it is
mighty, commencing with our
birth; going with us through
life, clinging to Us in death
and reachi g ioto the eternal
world. The specific influence of
husband ana wife, of parent and
child of brother and sister, of
teacher and pupil united, and
harmonlously blended, constitute
the home influence. Like the
calm. deep stream, it moves on
IN silent but overwhelming power
1t strikes it's roots deep into the
human heart, and spreads it's
branches wloe over our whole
being. Like the lily that brayas
the tempest and ''.he Alpine
flower that leans it's cheek on the
bosom Of eternal snow" it is
exerted amid the widest storms
OF life and breathes softening
spell in our bosym even when
a heartless world is freezing up
the Fountains Ct sympathy and
love.
The Home Ci cla means with
us home Industry.

WestcOtt Loses Garage.


Hot Springs, Dec. 30.-Fire
early this morning destroyed
the garage Of Harry Wescott,
president of the Arkansas State
Fair Association, entailing a
loss of $4,000, with insurance of
$4,000. Mr.. Wescott's country
home is located several miles
out, on one of the pixies.
Fortunately Mr.. Wescott had
all his machines out Of the gar
age and in the city at the time,
which made the loss decidedly
lighter than it would otherwise
have been. It was impossible
for the fire department of the
city to reach the fire, owing to
the paving now underway on
Park avenue.

Twas the month after Christ
mas, and all through the
land,
Collectors were calling with bills
in their hand;
Now the Christmas-bell music
had died on the air,
And the music of doorbells was
spreading despair.
But year after Christmas We'll
do it again,
Caring naught for the hardship
or trouble it's been;
For it's worth all the sacrifice,
trouble and care,
When the children are happy
and Santa is there.

Is nov great that a surplus
of mil Zion bales is far smaller
in its RELATION to the total re-
quiremenSs than was the case
fifteen years ago. Moreover,
the South is richer and better
educated in the principles of
economic law. 1t has learned
how to do other things than
grow cotton, and it's agricultur-
al versatility enables it from
year to year SO to change the OBJ
jective of it's enterprise that
when cotton ceases to be profita-
BILE another crop will be grown.
For these reasons, and be-
cause it is easily demonstrable
that it costs at least 9 cents a
pound to produce middling cot
ton, and just as much to produce
low-grade cotton that only sells
for 6 cents a pound, when mid
ding cotton sells for nine cents
pound, | think it entirely rea-
sonable to assume the PROBABLE
ity of higher prices for the year
1912.
| congratulate the South upon
the advance that it has made in
the application of economic
knowledge to an economic prob
lem. The whole world will be
better off for it. A plethora of
/ cotton at extremely low prices
in one year affords an injurious
stimulus to consumption. A de-
ficiency and extremely high
prices in another year result in
an equally injurious stimulus to
production.
The most thoughtful students
of economics are gradually COM
ing to the conclusion that mon
opolies are essential to the COM
pick civilization of today, but
that it is necessary that such
monopolies should be wisely and
! reasonably regulated. If the
South, through the diffusion of
economic intelligence, can wise
ly and reasonably regulate the
monopoly of cotton production
that it enjoys, so that we shall
have neither extremely high
prices. nor yet improbable low
prices, it will have provided an
object lesson which will prove
most useful, and in thA long run
it will, in so doing, consult
it's own self-inter Iheo-
dore H. Price.

NEW YORK DEADLOCK
ENTERS FOURTH WEEK.

ALBANY. N. Y, Feb. 6.-William F.
Sheehan's letter to DR.. Matthew d.
Mann, of Buffalo, expressing his deter
mination not to give up the fight for
election to the United States Senate,
was the chief topic of discussion among
the legislators who returned to Albany
today to resume the balloting, in the
hope of breaking the deadlock.
Mr.. Sheehan declares the present vital
question is not shall Sheehan be elect

firm believer in representative govern
ment?" Representative government, he
says, must fall when the minority and
not the majority rule.
