LIQUOR TRAFFIC

SO WRITES W. 7. WILSON

MITTED AS RESULT OF

From Thursdays Daily.

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
Deep down in my heart | hold no
ill-will against any man I do how
ever, hold him to account for his err
roneous ideas and evil deeds. Now,
what more evil can behalf man than
to see his son or daughter fall under
the influences of the liquor traffic
They don't of necessity have to drink
the vile stuff to get the effects of this
demon called rum.
You know, and | know, that our
boys and girls daily come in contact
with it's influences in many different
ways. "Crapshooters," gamblers,
white slave traffic and many other ne
farious crimes are committed as re-
suit of the liquor tarffic So you see,
when you say it will let you alone, if
you will let it alone, will not work
Thousands of mothers lie awake at
night in great anxiety about their
boys. Men, are you so depraved that
you would cast your vote to corrupt
your neighbors' sons and daughters?
Men, think about it Are you willing
for your son to enter into the liquor
traffic and yoar daughters reputation
to be despoiled by white slave trad
ers?" Go to the bottomless pits of all
large cities and you will find all these
hellish crimes going hand in hard.
viii you help to forward to destrar
ton of your sons and daughters, as
we'll as mine? Men, let's be fair and
Just to ourselves and our fellow-ma1.
Let's practice some things we preach.
The majority of the voters of Arkan-
sas are white men. Thousands of
times | have heard men say that they
believed in white mans rule. Cen
tlemen, If you vote the sale of liquor
on the people of Arkansas, you have
got to do it by the vote of the negro.
How can you, therefore, be consistent
and mix up with what you call the
greatest menace to our southland?
Fellow citizens, I realize that my in
fluence doesn't reach very far, but so
held me God, am against this hell

BOYS SEEK WRIT
OF HABEAS CORPUS

From Tuesdays Daily.
After having served about 80 days
in the county jail, two of the five boys
who were fined in circuit court for
disturbing a public gathering are
seeking through habeas corpus pro-
caedings to secure their freedom. The
ease is the one which, attracted spe-
c;al attention on account of the enor
nous amount of costs-about S700-
accruing in a misdemeanor trial.
Three of the defendants paid their
fines Of $50 each and their proper
tiOnate share of the costs, and the
other two, Ed Presley and Fred Don
nell, who have been in jail since their
conviction, through their attorney,
Col. G. w. Bruce, now contend that
they have served a sufficient time to
discharge their fines, and that they
cannot be held prisoners for the costs
after other defendants tried jointly
J have been released The application
for the writ as made to Judge J. A.
Lea and on the suggestion of Judge
Z. NJ Norman, deputy prosecuting
attorney, the hearing was continued
until Friday, to await the return of
Prosecuting Attorney G. W. Clark.

vote. 1t will fill their offices with
men who will be afraid to do their
duty when they are opposed and har-
raised by the demagogue.
1t is true there are instances where
the recall would be beneficial; for in
stance, where public servants prove
unfaithful to the people and become
the instruments of corporate greed.
But instances of that kind are rare
in Arkansas, and we are inclined to
believe that the remedy will prove
far more injurious than beneficial.
IN conclusion, will say, that in all
these recall elections Jones pays the

IT PAID IN JOHNSON.

FROM Friday Daily.
When Hon. A. S. Mchennon was
prosecuting attorney foe Johnson
county he set about to clean liquor
out of that county. People told him
that grass would grow on the public
square of the town if whiskey were
put out of GAINESVILLE. Colonel Nc
kennon's reply was, Let it grow"
The cost of the circuit court in John
son county at that time was $24 900
annually. Whiskey was put out; two
years later some one got a. camera
and took some street scenes about
ClarksviiIe; the only place where the
grass was found growing was around
the caEaboose Meantime, Johnson
county's court cost had been cut down
to less than $4,000 per year. This
has been the uniform experience
wherever prohibition has been honest
ly tried Western Methodist.

high schools as aid is taken from the
common school fund, it has not effect
ed the length of term or the salary of
the teacher. The cost to a district
with 80 pupils is about 81. Besides,
it comes from an unused balance of

common and special districts to their

BOTH LEGS ARE
BROKEN IN FALL
Round in Ladder on Wind Mill Tower
Breaks Allowing Workman to Fall a
Distance Of TWENTY-FIVE Feet.

fell Lewis Groteluchen of Gray, last
Saturday afternoon. He was putting

reached a distance of twenty-five feet
the round on which he was standing
broke, allowing him to fall to the
frozen ground beneath, striking with
such force as to break both legs near
legs protruded through the fleshy
part of the heel and the small bones
in the other foot were literally crush
ed. A physician was Immediately
called and the patient taken to Mann
ing where he remained until Sunday
noon when he was taken to his home,
at Gray on the noon train.
This is the third time within, the
past eight months, Mr. Groteluchen
has sustained accidental injuries and
from present indications he will be
laid up several months. Unless COM
plications or septic poisoning ensues,
it may not be necessary to amputate
the limbs, but at best he will likely
remain cripple for life.
Mr.. Groteluchen is, the popular i'm
plement dealer at Gray, sand enjoys
a large trade and an extended ac-
quaintance. His friends will be sorry
to learn of this distressing accident,
and his family consisting of wife

of all who know them.
Physicians are watching the case
very carefully and everything known
to the surgery and medical science
will be applied to obtain speedy
recovery.

YOUNG WOMAN
COMMITS SUICIDE
While Parents Are Away From Home
Life Past Few Months Has Been One
OF Sorrow and Disappointment.

Miss Emma Jansen, aged twenty one,
committed suicide at the home of her
parents two and half miles east of
Manning last Friday. Her parents
were not at home when she drank the
poison. Some months ago she became
the mother of twins but the children
died short afterwards. At that time
a criminal charge was peuding in the
Carroll county District Court against
one Floyd Campbell, but the death of
the infants brought an end to the pro-
ceedings. The grand jury later indict-
ed him on charge of seduction but
the charge was later withdrawn by the
county attorney.
The young woman brought a suit for
damages against Campbell in the Aud
ubon County District Court and the
case was to have been tried here the
fore part of next week The death of
the young woman makes it necessary
for continuance of the case.
Floyd Campbell is a resident of Aud
ubon county while the plaintiff resided
across the line in Carroll county. The
parties are known here.
The unfortunate girls funeral was
held at the Presbyterian church at
Manning Monday afternoon.

Monrovia, Cal, to visit her daughter,
Miss Gretchen Nash, who has been
staying at the Pattenger sanitarium,
since the middle of last October. Her
condition is somewhat improved, but
Mrs Nash thought her daughter would
improve more rapidly if the home
sickness could be eliminated. With
that thought in mind. Mrs. Nash con-
cluded to visit her daughter and just
how long she will be absent from Au-
dubon she does not know. Audubon
people are unit in hoping that Mrs.
Nash and her daughter may soon re-
turn in the very best of health.
Mrs. Nash will be greatly missed
by the Audubon ladies. She is presi-
dent OF the Columbian Club and her
untiring efforts have been of great
value to the Club. In view of the fact
that she was going to leave, Mrs.
Earl Maharg entertained the officers
and trustees of the Club at her home
last wednesday afternoon. At this
time Mrs. Nash rendered her resigna-
ton as president of the Club, but the
resignation was not accepted. During
her absence Mrs. Maharg, the vice
president will fill her place.
