The hero of this spirited and daring
tale is William MaeVeigh, sergeant in

He was as brave hero as you d find
in many moons. too, facing danger on all
hands and defying the terrors of the

Of a beautiful woman whose fate was
strangely intermingled with his own.
Scotty Deane the murderer, and Mac

especial mention.

Jailed Tor llbeling Congress.

An Enghsh< linen merchant in New York, H. w. Page by name. last year sent printed pamphlet to every member and senator mak- ing charges against the courts. ol this country, which he said had treated him unjustly in divorce case. He also charged congress with being corrupt. He was ar rested for libeling members of con- gress and was convicted, but was let off on parole, on his promise that he would not repeat his charges. However the other day he sent package of ll3 pages of typewriting to the president. in which he reiterated his charges and appealed for justice. There upon he was ordered to prison to serve sout his sentence of five years. This is practically the first case in which congress has ever followed up charges of this sort.

Union County Alfalfa.

s. D. Moss who resides at Tu- bal eighteen miles west of Fl Dc rado has been displaying as fine al- falfa as you can raise anywhere at Fl Dorado and Junction City re- gently. Last fall he planted one acre of this valuable crop paying $z.5O for the inoculated seec and used $500 worth of lime on the land. His first cutting re- suited in nearly two tons of al falfa and he expects to get two or three more tons before the season is over. It is shame that more of our farmers do not take to this crop which is such an elegant feed and which if what is used here was raised in the county would keep thousands of dollars at home ev- cry year instead of fattening the poeketbooks of farmers in other states.

Would Advertise With BattieshIps.

American products, housed anc displayed on American warships and carried to the world ports for the education of foreign people in what America has to offer in trade is the plan proposed in bill which Congressman w. 5. Goodwin of this congressional district has in- trodueed in congress and which is creating considerable favorable comment.
 Before leaving for Arkansas. Mir. Goodwin. who is intensely interest ed in peace and disarmament, pre- pared the following statement in reference to his bill:
 I am opposed to senseless nul- tiplication of useless battleships. l see no reason why those we have built at so great expense should not be used in advancing American trade before they rot and become junk Our strength and security lies not in battleships and dread nough.s, so much as in our isola- tion, the absence of entangling al- dances and our peaceful pursuits. All people are looking to the Unit ed States to take the first step to- ward disarmament.
 From latest available reports on movements of our navy. 1t appears that much time is spent by battle ships, cruisers and gunboats in for eign ports. Yet. trade reports show how comparatively unknown are American goods in these same ports frequented by American ships. The regulations formulated would set out the nature of exhib- it's and conditions upon which such exhibits would be received. so those who would avail of the service could obtain full instructions. schedules of the itinerary of yes sels and detailed information as tt how, when and where they. nagt application for allotments of exhi- btion space. The consular serv- ide would cooperate to bring to the attention of foreign merchants this innovation and arrange for proper publicity. The commer- cial organizations throughout II e country will, am sure, appreciate readily the possibilities of the pro- position. Friends of a big navy would do we'll to analyze this plan carefully if they would take serious ly the recent remarks of Seeaetary Daniels. the importance of making the navy a popular institution '

Judge Hays Defines iiis Position on Tax Issue.

T am opposed to the increase of tax rate unless in the administra- tion Of public affairs it must be done as a last resort. announced Judge G. w. Hays in a speech delivered at Walnut Ridge recently.
 Not dollar for any purpose should be taken from the pockets of citizen of this State unless it's spending in the maintenance of the government is a fundamental ne- cessity. This is my belief. and it is a position to which l will adhere when elected governor. with all the tenaeity possess.
 In my opinion. if the property of the people is properly assessed. if economy and good judgment is used in expenditures, and if proper encouragement is given to immi- grafton and the investmen. of cap ital we will not be called on to is sue bonds either now or hereafter. A bond issue on the part of State. at best. is but a makeshift which is temporary and in the end will most likely add to the burdens of the people. Hence l am opposed to a bond issue to liquidate the State s indebtedness. y

Soy Beans and Cow Peas.

It is getting time to SOW soy beans and COW peas, and they should not be neglected. They are fine as soil builders, and both are good for hogs.
 Plant them in drills from two to three feet apart according to the. strength of the soil. They can be cultivated by planting in the drill. and it will require much less seed per acre, and they will yield better than if you SOW them broadcast. By cultivating two or three times, the weeds and grass can be kept out pretty well, and the vines can be picked. and the yield of beans or of peas will surprise you.
 By this method, you can get bet l ter stock for seed next year. The vines can be utilized also. It will be good idea to follow the oats with soy beans or COW peas. You may SOW them after oats have been harvested and turn the crop under, or cut the crop for hay and let the second growth come and blow that under. Do not forget to plant peas at the last blowing of the corn.
 You can gather the peas in the fall or you can turn the hogs in af- ter the corn is gathered and they will gather the peas for you and make good money for you in
