A FEW THOUGHTS AS WE PASS

M In the Northern District circuit

E@Nirth, was fined $500 for failing

md costs amount to more than
1eventy dollars. The woman is 81
Vears of age Although, as we un-
4erstand the matter, she is able to
pay off the judgment of the court if
she chose to do so, she refuses to
40 it. Of course she was placed IN
custody of the sheriff to serve out
The amount in the county Jail.
Sheriff W. W. Bristow brought the
Woman to Evening Shade Sunday

Oregon Governor Opposes Hanging

Mike Morgan, who was sentenced
to hang in the penitentiary at Sa-
lem, Oregon, Friday, was spared the
death penalty, thanks to the elem
ency of Governor West. The Gov
ernor is opposed to capital punish
ment and declares that no person
shall be hanged in Oregon during
his term of Office. Morgan, whose
home Is at Mt. Carmel, ILL.,, was con-
victed of numbering his partner
John York, while they were alone
in a lodging camp at Grants Pass,
Oregon.

ton. Hear us: Friday night was

In this issue of the Record our
old friend P. j. Schales of David
son township gives a few results
from an investigation recently made
by him as to the number of dollars
spent in Sharp county every year
for tobacco He finds that the
merchants of King Mills, Center,
Ash Flat and Evening Shade will
sell more than $4,000 worth of to-
bacco, which means tobacco to
chew, smoke and dip, in twelve
months. There are many more
points in Sharp county where to-
bacco is sold, and if Mr.. Schales
continues his investigation to all
of these he will then be able to
present the public some interesting
figures. And they will be startling
figures as we'll
:. d" :.
We suppose the first reason MIR.
Schales has for getting these figures
together is to impress upon the
people the fact that they are spend
ing a great deal Of money upon a
habit which gives no good return.
Those of us who use tobacco know
that the use of the weed is expen-
sive to our pocketbooks, filthy to
our mouths and clothes, and, in
many instances, detrimental to
health. We all know the use of to-
bacco is useless, Tobacco does not
give strength to the body or mind,
1t will take strength from both.
Why don't we stop using tobaccoY
Well, that's another proposition
However If there is young fellow
in this country who imaeines, as
many young lads seem to do, that
he must use tobacco to be a man
we warn him now to Get the idea
out of his head-or live to regret
having ever entertained It,
" =. {"
We suppose, too, that Mr.. Schales
wants to impress the thought upon
the people that If they are Going to
use tobacco they ought to raise 1t
themselves, which can be done at
small cost, and save this enormous
sum which goes from the pockets
of the people to outside Golfers ev-
cry year Not so very many
years ago many people In this sec
ton raised what tobacco they used
at home and had no tobacco bills
at the stores. The homemade
twist was a familiar sight as one
neiehbor would familiarly ask an
other for Il quid Of the weed, II
was chewed, II was smoked In the
pipe of peace and all other pipes.
But you rarely Get sight of this
sort of tobacco any more, The
stores are now the tobacco patches.

And that is all we know of you.
Save you looked thus in your pride
When the humble painter tried
To lend a gracious, kindly air
To your cold. repellant stare.
But fruitlessly. That hawk-beak grim
Shows the truth in spite of him;
And the keen, predaceous eyes
Burn their greed through pigment lies;
In vain the artists flattering task
The soul escapes the painted mask.
Displayed for all the world to see
Are ruthlessness, rapacity-
The lions claw, the jackal heart,
The bloodhound scent, the fox's art
The serpent skill to twist and wind,
The creature preying on it's kind.
Your world had named you 'Grandee;'
Upon the frame the word may be,
But from the treasury of fame.
Master Thief, you filched the namei
Today, Of your ill-gotten gains
Naught but this empty word remains
That and the painted canvas yet
Exist to show, though men forget
The wrongs of an unbridled will,
They cherish ever craftsman skill.
The sins men do their sons forgive;
Good work and true shall ever live.
