VOTE FOR AMENDMENT NO. 14.

Arkansas cities and towns are now prohibited from lending their credit, and also from issuing interest bear ing certificates Of indebtedness. Sup pose the Constitution also prohibited persons engaged in private business from borrowing money, for the pur- pose of carrying on their different lines of business in Arkansas? Would business prosper? Would the merchant or banker be able to do bsuiness at all? Would not such a law have a very serious effect on business men, and all the people of the state as well2 If such law would be bad for one citizen of the state, or for group Of citizens, would it not be bad for the entire state? Yet, the people of the state are only asked 10 support Amend ment No. Ii so that the cities and towns may borrow money, in a busi- ness way, as men do now who are ti@dStu III iji iN tliG b1olltCSS. tDiD- port the Bond Issue Amendment
 The proposed Bond Issue Amend ment No. II, will permit cities and towns of one thousand or more popu- lation in Arkansas to hold elections for that purpose. If, at such special election, held after due and proper notice has been given, the people vot to issue bonds for any certain pre- scribed public improvement, then such bonds can be issued,
 No mayor. no city council, no board, no group of men. no business organization or no coterie of polite ians can order an issue of bonds, in short, no bonds can be issued at all under Amendment No IA, until they have been ordered issued by the people at an election held for that purpose, of which the people have had time to be thoroughly ad- vised
 The consent of the majority of the qualified electors voting on the prop osition is required before bonds can legally be issued No bonds can be issued if the people of any given municipality do not want them is- sued.

ONE LONE CANDIDATE.

Little Rock, Aug. 12-One lone candidate will be offered to the vot- CTS this year by the Progressive Re publicans, better known as the Bull Moosers. This is Hon. L. R. Put man of Fayetteville, who is a candi- date for Congress in the Third dis trict. The G. o. P. also has but one candidate for Congress and that. too, is in the Third district W. N, Ivie of Harrison The Bull Moosers have given official notice that they will not furnish candidate for other state or district offices. Efforts are now being made to get the old line Republicans to draw their candidates out of the race, leaving the field to Judge J. N Tillman and his fellow townsman, Dick Putnam. The Thir district is rich in Republicans, but there is little danger of either wing of the Republican party withdrawing a candidate Either side would rather see Democrat elected than to see the other triumph at the polls. A Republican has never been elected in that district, but in number of instances the races have been very close

In addition to other safeguards which have been thrown about the proposed Bond Issue Amendment, No. 14, the amendment provides that no election be held in city or town con cerning a bond issue, until after six ty days notice of the approaching election has been given. The amend ment provides that the city ordi- nance calling such an election must fix a date for the election which shall not be less than sixty days af- ter the passage of the ordinance. Notice of the election must then be given by the mayor by advertise menu weekly for at least four weeks. This notice must be published in a paper of the city having general circulation, and the last notice must be published not later than ten days before the election
 It would be impossible for polite ians to take snap judgment on the people with such a stringent law as that in force.
 Support the Amendment, and urge your friends to do so.- Fayetteville | Daily.

The three living are Charles, Jr., Mrs. Ella Sullivan, anc Miss Addie. These together with he aged husband, Uncle Charlie" re- main to mourn her departure.
 Her children were all with her dur ing the last sickness. She professed faith in Christ in 1900, and joined the Presbyterian Church at Wood lawn, and has been a faithful and consistent member since. She has been a sufferer from an incurable heart disease for more than a year and half, and has borne her sui fering without murmur. While she was not loud in her profession, yet those who are familiar with her knew her devotion to the church and to her Lord.
 She was unconscious for several days before the end came. and there fore could not say anything of the hopes in the last hours, but We all feel quite sure that she has entered into rest, and therefore we sorrow not those who have no hope.
 Blessed are the dead, that die in
 the Lord,
 For they rest from their labors
 hencefOrth,
 And their works do follow them.
 Interment took place at Elm Springs on the afternoon of the 29th of July, in the presence of a large concourse of friends and neighbors. The services were conducted by her pastor, Rev Kelley, assisted by her attending physician.

 She leaves father and mother two brothers, three sisters and her hus' band, Rev J. D. Roberts and Vida and Neva, her step-daughters and little J.

ILL THE GREEN FOREST JAIL
SEE L

So successful has proven the plan of Mayor A l.. Kinney of Green Forrest, Carroll county. of sentenc- ing to attend church the culprits who come before his court that the town no longer has a jail.
 Mayor Kinney, who is also Republi- can candidate for governor. was in Little Rock yesterday and told with pride how successful his plan has proven His plan has been to fine the guilty persons brought before his court and then to allow them eer- tain amount on the fine for each oc- casion they attend church. "We sold our jail last week for $125." said Mayor Kinney. "The towns lease upon the site of the jail had expired and there was nc use of renewing it because we nc longer have any use for a jail. don't think we shall ever need an other jail in Green Forest as long as we can make Christians of persons convicted in the mayors court. - Arkansas Gazette.
 If Mayor Kinney should be elected governor, would he sell the state farm, penitentiary. reform school etc, and build churches with barred windows? How long does a murder CT have to attend church before his sentence is expired? Parties in Mad ison, Washington and Benton countie are wondering

 The farmers wife is really the best thing on the farm She works more hours than any laborer in the city or town, more hours than the hardest driven lawyer or doctor. In addition to this. she is the mother Of the farmers children. She really has the biggest place on the farm. Often, when accident or death lays the farmer low, the wife takes hold o1 the farm and manages it. some times succeeding better even than hel husband did If it were not for her thrift. her ability to make little go long ways, and to get a large part Of the living of the family off the farm in the shape of vegetables, but ter and eggs, good many farmres would have broken up long ago. She is the person on the farm who can least be spared, and the hardest per son for whom to find substitute. Why should not the farmers wife be encouraged to have her club, her church society? She loves her hus- band, she loves her boy; but no wo- man is entirely satisfied unless she has from time to time the companion ship of women outside her own i'm mediate family.-Ex

The body was brought to Clifty, Ark, and laid to rest in the family lot. July 30, 1914. The funeral services were con- ducted by Rev. J. w Todd. She was 20 years old last March. While her death was not wholly unexpected, it came as great shock to family and community
 Daisy was an exceedingly charm ing girl, both in appearance and man. ner and was very popular among her many friends and acquainntances. To know her was to love her She was greatly devoted to her parents and her home Her life was spark ling with sunshine and it's cheerful influence was felt wherever she went.
 Daisy had been in declining health since the death of her younger broth CT Dewey. He was shot through the knee Feb. 14. 1914. While inspecting some traps his gun was accidentally discharged resulting in the fatal wound that ended his life almost in stantly He never regained con sciousness. He was Is years old and he and Daisy were close eompan- ions. usually accompanying each other to all social gatherings, etc. The sisters grief over the sudden death of her brother was so great it developed into heart trouble and later on she contracted cold and these together with the whooping cough threw her into quick consump- tion. Acting upon the advice of the attending physician and Daisy's de sire to go. believing she would be benefited, Mr. and Mrs. Phillips sub mitted to her being taken to Boone vile, Ark, Sanitarium, July I, 1914 Upon an Xsray examination they found her left lung was gone. She didn't seem to suffer much but re mained quite cheerful until death claimed her and she passed away as 1 if in a peaceful sleep.
