Ice cream, soft drinks, cigars,
etc., are no longer to be sold on
Sunday in our neighbor city of
Batesville. While it is Bates
ville's business to regulate her
Sunday selling, the writer re-
calls the fact that two years ago,
one might buy a cigar in Bates
vile, but not a soft drink on Sun
day, whereas upon the same day,
one might purchase cold drink
but not cigar at Newark. Sun
day closing of business houses
is right, but when you get too
squeamish in Sunday laws and
Try to draw the line too closely.
there is that difference of opin-
ion as to what constitutes a
necessity, that you make your
law a joke.

Newport's slow, but steady
and substantial growth assures
US that we will become a city
and a city without parks has
been likened to a desert without
an oasis. The proper time to get
parks is before valuations reach
too high. Newport has several
tracts that would make admira-
BILE sites. There's field for
philanthropy here and we would
point it out to some of our good
blessed with property holdings
than others. Even small park
would be great improvement
and as place Of recreation for
the poor, as a playground for
our boys and girls, as a garden
spot to all walks of life, who may
come hither and be refreshed
with nature less confined than in
our small yards and lawns, such
a gift would be a blessing. The
city of Newport would be graft
fed to receive such a benefac-
ton from some of our citizens
who are in a position to do great
[public good.

Senator Smith says "there is a
very considerable lobby at Wash
ington, there always will be and
| think it appropriate" which is
all very candid and at the same
time true. One might as we'll de-
prive a man of counsel in court
and allow the Judge and jury to
blindly reach a verdict as to say.
that no interest affected by leg
,Slation shall offer proof and ar
gument upon the effects of pro-
POSED laws. Lobbies are all
right, but the means by which
they attain ends are often cor
rupt, reprehensible and danger
GUS. Just as an attorney ought
TO be penalized for jury fixing, so
ought the lobbyist be compelled
to keep within legitimate lines.
1t was the "insidious" work of
the lobby of which President
Wilson complained and there is
very little doubt that he had just
grounds for demanding an inves-
tigation. Why shouldn't the lob
byist be registered as such, that
senator's and representatives
may know from whom to accept
favors without obligating them
selves to hidden interests. How
ever the whole issue and respon-
sibility really reverts to the peo-
pie in electing men to these high
positions, whose honesty and
Judgment are not to be beguiled
by influences that serve selfish
and great corporate interests at
the expense and to the detriment
of the country's general welfare.

veto single items in appropria-
ton bills without affecting the
bill in toto. While there seems
to be no feature of the constitu-
ton that provides for such
measure, the contention is made
that it is warranted by the alb
sence Of anything that would
prohibit it.
This bill was inspired by the
fact that the sundry civil bill,
which contains appropriations
for many matters of Importance
to the country, has been hung up
for a month or more in confer
ence committee of the house and
senate because it contains a
clause that prohibits the use by
the department of justice Of any
of the funds appropriated in the
prosecution of labor unions or
farmers for violations of the
Sherman antitrust law. One of
the last acts of President Taft
was to veto this bill because it
contained this iniquitous clause,
md in doing so he gave reasons
that cannot be successfully con-
troverted. President Wilson al
so hesitates about signing the
bill unless the obnoxious feature
be eliminated, though he has in
timated that he may do so pro-
yided the conference committee
insists upon the passage of the
bill in its original form. He is
reported to have remarked that
any provision of an appropria-
ton bill, which itself has life
| Of only a year, cannot make any
modification in ''substantiative
law" furthermore, that there are
other funds that can be used by
the attorney general for prose-
cutting any violation of the Sher-
man antitrust law that may &C.
cur This is an argument which
a majority of people will wish
that our president had not made
for while sophistry may please
for the time being, common
sense will not be blinded to the
fact that the provision legally
exempts certain classes of our
people from prosecution for acts
which in other people would be
criminal.
1t is not to be assumed that
labor unions or farmers organ
izations are engaged in violation
of the antitrust law, or that
they will violate it. Comblna-
tions among producers and wage
earners for the purpose of bet
tering their conditions are legit-
innate and commendable, but
that is not the point involved.
| The clause in the sundry civil
bill would establish class distinc-
tion-it would be class legisla-
ton in it's most Objectionable
form.
Laws are intended to bear
equally upon all people. When
they fail in such application
then they are not just, and what
is not just is not law.
And besides this. there are
several other features of the bill
over which there is contention.
We believe the measure to
which the disagreement over
the sundry civil bill gave birth
should pass. not only that 1t
might be the means of correct
ing such errors as have been

think it rather drastic and the
regulation ought to be widely

never USE STRONG
LIQUID PERFUMES
They BGtFay Lack of Re.
finGment

The use of disuse Of perfume has so
perceptlble an effect upon personality
that one can almost read a woman's
character by the quality and quantity
of the perfume that watts about her.
NO person of real refinement ever
INDUCES in aggressive scents, nor does
she permit herself to use cheap LIQUID
ones, which are an abomination. If is
really better to confine ones self to
sachet powder, toilet waters and bath
yrystals Liquid perfumes and esps-
cially those that contain al arge per-
centage of alcohol, soon become dead
and leave trail of stale odor which is
distinctly disagreeable. This dead"
perfume is oftentlmes not noticeable
to the wearer, when it may be quite
overpowering to those with whom she
comes in contact, so the only really
safe way to avoid altogether the use
of questionable scents.
Constant indulgence, too, of a per-
fume dulls the senses so that the uses
in time becomes unaware of it's
strength and proceeds to increase the
amount until the effect is obnoxious
to others. Sandalwood and powdered
orris root, with perhaps a dash Of
violet powder, constitute an excellent
and lasting sachet; or coreopsis may
be substituted for the violet, for it, too
mingles pleasantly with the sandal
wood.
Of all the flower extracts violet is
the most desirable and most generally
liked, but there are the bouquets, the
wonderful blends that seem to be the
blowing of old breezes," which one
may use, being careful not to satiate
and thus kill sense.
Small sachet bags of silk or muslin
sewed into frocks will produce the
right hint of perfume. Always use
the same odor. If violet is your ia
vorite, or sandalwood, use it exclusive
ly. Then it becomes a part of your
personality-and violet and SANDAL
wood will always speak to your friends
of you.
Sprinkle a bit of powder in your
hair, if you like concealing it clever
ly, of course, or dust your arms and
neck with it. If you use talcum pow.
der, have it of the same odor, if there
be any, as that of the sachet or per-
fume you use-don't mix your odors-
the amateur bouquet" is liable to oe
anything but Exchange.
