WHAT THE PICAYUNE
 IS DOING

At this time the Arkansas town that is being advertised is forg- ing to the front, and in them va cant houses are rarely found. Many towns over the state have announced special editions and are now working on them, and we feel that the edition of the Plcayune which we are now busi- ly engaged in should be of great interest to not only every citizen of Prescott, but Of Nevada and adjoining counties as well, and for this reason we ask their aid cooperation in the work. It will not be like the average special edition "a few pages of advertis- ing from a few scattering firms and short incomplete articles which tell nothing and benefit nobody, but 1t will De a big news paper of 16 to A pages and gen. era advertising will not be soh- citl1. .-g 1t. These pages will contair h~ief saappy reviews of the a5Fe@ cement of progressive city. bioeraphicaI sketches of our i1.on WIG are at the head of the many businesses and professions, and q comprehensive description of the wonderful resources Of the agricultural country surroun- ing Us. It is our intention to take Up eaeh topic of great in dustrial valae and set forth the same in plain unVarnished truth, not by oVerstating the virtues, but in brief business.like man ner, Ir attempting this sort o: an edition the Picayune feels that 1t has assumed a task requiring hard effort, and in some cases it may fail to reach the goal desi1 ed, but that it will be the biggest and most complete edition ever attempted by any similar sized town in southern Arkansas there can be no question. A boom is not wanted, but the Picayune favors doing something to keep the town alive. prefera ly some thing which by example in other places has proven good for the promotion of a healthy business condition, and in this work we will spare no pains nor expense to produce a creditable edition, and one that will be of farreach- ing good and effect to Prescott and surrounding country.
 Mir. Wore, who for the past three weeks has been gathering pictures, data and information for the issue will work not less than six, and possibly eight weeks getting up the matter and when he has finished it will be compiled and written complete in every detail. He is we'll pleased with the manner in which he is being assisted by our citi- zens and when they understand the mutual way in which the business of the edition will be done they will more than ever appreciate it. 10000 or more copies will be printed and mailed by the Picayune office not only to every citizen of the county, but to all parts of the north and east. from where migration and business will come during the fail and winter months this year.

FOURFLUsHED TOO LONG.

As the contested delegations are
given to Taft by unanimous vote of
both Roosevelt and Taft men on the
national committee, one begins to
wonder where the much talked about
fraud comes in. The principal con-
tests thus far seem to have been the
results Of after thoughts A number
of conventions were held and dele
gates instructed for Taft without OPP
position, but subsequently Roosevelt
suddenly announced himself as a
candidate aud some people in
his interest sought to repudi-
ate the work Of the regular
conventions. Indeed a couple of
postmasters in Alabama announce
that they are going to vote for Roose-
Welt despite their instructions for
Taft as the colonel was not a candi-
date when the instructions were
given.
From the way the various prefer
entail primaries have gone, it is APP
parent that Roosevelt would have
been nominated without serious
opposition had he frankly announced
his candidacy at the outset instead OF
Juggling the words while trying Ia
have a stampede make him an invol-
untary leader II Is not now for the
national committee to say that he
must have the delegates because he
would have been the choice had he
been honest with the public at the
start

THE ACHING VOID.

Oh. what did they do for diversion,
~ And how did they pass time away,
And what was the topic. wonder.
/ OF gossip by night and by day:
What was there TO furnish excitement
And how did they get on at all
Or manage 10 pass through a season
Before they invented baseball?
It must have been mighty dry picking
When no one was winning three straights
1t may be the boys had wrestle
Or mixed in hot game Of Quoits.
In watching the curve OF the horseshoe
And seeing Just where it would fall
They passed a wet day with the black
smith
Before they invented baseball.
They sat round the drug store at checkers
Or maybe took chances on chess,
Or mayhap they only matched pennies
The dullness to partly suppress,
And sometimes. when life got too dreary,
They'd go TO a show in hall
There must have been oceans OF blank
ness
Before they invented baseball
They had to go forth and fight battles
Or argue on points OF the creed;
They had to fare forth with their weap-
ons
To places where coons might be freed;
They had to fight bulls and run horses
Or curry their nsgs in the stall
To keep up a semblance OF interest
Before they invented baseball

French poet may we'll write of his
coUntry's purchase Of primaCy in the

tinue 10 lead the world in numbers,
in records made and in triumphs
won. Everywhere that men fly far
and fast death is the price they pay
for fame and other rewards OF their
daring and their proves, but France
paws most because France leads in
the number Of flying machines and
dying men and in the use made of
both.
In two phases Of preparation for
possible war the French people have
shown remarkable enthusiasm and
willingness to run all the risks In
volved and pay all OF the inevitable
cost in money and in the lives Of
brave men. French submarines and
French flying machines and airships
for military use are not only numer-
Gus but they are handled with great
courage and skill. In the air. espe-

lar reticence, for Brown never told
whence or why he came to the town
or anything of his past or what he
might hope for in the future.
Brown had not been long in his
adopted home when it was noticed that
he seemed either to be looking for
some one or was conscious that some
one was looking for him. A boy
one day walking behind him down the
main street noticed that at every cor
ner he would turn his head to the right,
then to the left, or vice versa, before
crossing The boy saw him cross half
a dozen streets, and he never failed to
look In both directions.
Brown was a handsome man, and
this, taken in connection with the mys
terry attending him, attracted the young
women OF the place to him. A number
of them at different times endeavOred
to secure some notice from him, but
they all failed. He seemed insensible
to feminine charms. This added to the
wonder the man excited in every one
and led to the theory among the young
er persons that he had been crossed in
love and among the older ones that he
feared some woman he had wronged
who was looking for him. There were
men of the town who believed that a
woman was looking for Brown; but, as
to Brown having injured her, they
thought it more likely that she had
got him in her tolls and made it hot for
him.
Be that as it may, the attention
Brown attracted grew instead OF de-
clining. He was pointed out TO stran-
gers as the town curiosity, and they
carried the story of the mystery to
other places. 1t is quite possible, even
probable, that this had some effect In
fastening the name Of Brown on the
town.
With every month that passed tbs
mans watchfulness increased. He was
seen at times to start, but 50 adept
was he in concealing the cause THAI
those who noticed the starting either
thought that they were mistaken 0,
that IL was merely a nervous twltching.

conditions? Divorce is often really !
kinder to the children that might have
been, than many will admit.
Another evil Of easy divorce is that
it may be made the tool OF husbands
and wives who get tired Of each other.
A man wants a variety, in wives.
He prefers TO have the variety legal,
if possible. Therefore, he makes it
impossible for his present wife 10 live
with him. She seeks redress in the
divorce court. He gets off with lit
tie alimony and is free to marry his
new inamOrata.
| Or. a woman thinks she can marry
a richer man, and trumps up grounds
| for divorce from the husband she no
longer wants. The court frees her and
| sometimes the richer man marries her
and sometimes he doesn't. The woman
! generally gets the worst of it, anyway.
| But divorce on the whole, is kind
ness. 1t makes life little more liv-
able for the abused one. 1t makes
possible rectifying of early mistakes
for a great many early marriages
women a chance to lead clean and
decent life and to respectfully bring
up children whom she has rescued
from the contamination Of bad father.
Wherever women have anything to
say about the laws of land. there
will be a divorce law that will enable
wives to escape from the serfdom OF
a marriage that degrades her and her
children into creatures dependent upon
the morals of one who has lost the
spark of Godlikeness that is given to
each soul that is born.
Let US have divorce-easy divorce,
cheap divorce. But let US put such
restrictions about marriage in the be-
ginning that the thoughtless and the
careless cannot lightly enter into it.
Indissoluble marriages will mean
: only more murders and more i'm
= morality among the mismated and the
would-be free.
