Fault of the Biz German Gun.

The following are some of the
drawbacks of the big German
seige guns, according to an ex-
change:
Tho immense mortar is essen
TALLY unwieldy. It's equippage
consists of $50 men and 200
horses. At least "a hours are re-
quired to put it in position. A
cement platform, to sustain the
gun. must be built and rails laid
for the purpose of bringing up
the shells on trucks and feeding
them automatically into the gun.
Semi-circular rails must also be
laid. on which. after the dis
charge, the stupendous weight
of the gun and its carriage can
recoil harmlessly.
In order not to be killed them
selves by the violence of the ex-
plosion, or asphyxiated by the
poisonous gassed released, the
gunners retire to distance of 500
yards, and turn on IAN electric
current to set the machinery in
motion. In this circumstance it
is not surprising that only six
shots an hour can be fired.
Furthermore, the life of the
mortar is only 120 rounds. The
original cost of the gun is z, 500. =
600 francs $500, O0O) and the
cost of each shot AZ. 500 francs
($9, 500). After it has rendered
the full service that can be ex-
pected of it, the bill figures out
at 500, 200 francs Isl, 40, OOO)
exclusive of the cost of trans
portation and the upkeep of the
men and horses. At such a
price, it is not astonishing that
the Germans are reported to be
dissatisfied with the last word of
the Krupp artillery.

UNFAIR TO
 THE DRUGGIST
The Old Joke about Something Just as Good" Doesn't Apply to
 This Drug Store.
K. C. Wilson. AdVert tisement.

You have probably heard dozens of times the old story that drug store was place to ''get something just as good. <" There is at least one druggist in the world that you can't say this about
 It is certain that an inferior article will never be substituted for guar anteed one by Shaffer's Drug Store. Take for instance Q safe, reliable rem edy for constipation and liver trouble like Dodson' Liver Tone. This harm less vegetable liquid has proved so sat isfactory liver stimulant and reliever of biliousness, and to entirely take the place of calomel without any danger or restriction of habits or diet, that there are dozens of preparations springing up with limitations of it's claims.
 But Dodson's Live. Tone is guaran- teed to do all that is claimed for it, and if you are not satisfied with it Shaffer's Drug Store will hand your money back with smile. Any per son going to this store for bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone will be sure of getting large bottle of this genuine remedy in exchange for his half dollar.

A small scattering vote in the wes- tern counties is all that is necessary to elect him.
 He made good record by routing the county scrip grafters by saving the taxpayers funds, by paying his county out of debt, by reducing the county tax from five to three and one half mills and by opposing all extrava- gant expenditures. He has always sought the public good before his own benefit. He is a good school man, a good roads man, and man of ability. From the many letters of encourage ment he is receiving daily he is confi- dent he will be the peoples choice on March 25. A dark horse wins this race, it's Bratton, he was always their choice in the east end, he is now the choice of large and increasing num- Der of voters in the west end and he is confident he will be the choice of the people on election day.

Who will be the Congressman?


 In the counties of Carroll, Madison, Benton and Washington many people are still undecided how they will vote for Congressman. Many are looking for a strong candidate whose record is clean, and who is not charged with sus- picious conduct himself, and does not urge his own nomination because of the demerts of any other candidate.
 In the estimation of such voters V. C. Bratton is the choice, and he is gain ing strength every day. He has assur- ances that he will get 1000 votes in the six eastern counties. This is a conser- vative estimate.'&.
 In the four western counties named above he will receive a good vote on account of his integrity, ability, devo tion to duty and loyalty to the peoples interest. Others believe it would be better if there were more reliable in dustrious business men in congress and less lawyers In Benton and Washing 1 ton counties the fact that Bratton was constant, active supporter and friend of the late Senator Berry touches a re- sponsive chord in the hearts of many who will embrace this opportunity to show their appreciation.
 With his strong vote in the six east ern counties and his surprising gains in Benton and Washington counties and a steady increase reported from all parts of the district, Bratton looks like a winner
 He has never asked support on any thing but his own merit, but some voters have been asked to vote for one candidate for the sole purpose of de- feating another. The idea that you should vote for one candidate to de- | feat another is absurd and indicates that such one sees defeat at hand. Should Bratton be the nominee there will be no factions as predicted by other candidates and their friends, if certain other candidates should be nominated. His integrity and sterling character will unite the people and with him as a leader the grand old Democratic Par ty will march on to victory. His vote in the six eastern counties conserva- lively stated will be as follows:

Change in Traffic Department.

The retirment of E. E. Smythe, as traffic manager of the North Arkansas Line on account of i'll health, is a matter of regret for both employees and the patrons, as he was a very popular and Efficient railroader and was con tributing much to the high standard that is being maintained in the opera tion of the road. It is certainly to be hoped that Mir. Smy the may soon regain his health and again become identified with the road. Jay Kerr, who on ac- count of the change necessitated by Mir. Smythe' s retirement, becomes gen eral passenger agent of the road, is young man of exceptional ability and worth. For some time he has been travelling passenger agent with head quarters in Kansas City and has proven to be the Iviest sort of live wire in the' e'promotion of business. We predict that he will handle the office of general passenger agent in a manner that will give general satisfaction.

Prairie Grove, Ark, March 6, 1914. To The Public We, the undersigned, are citizens of Washington county, Ark. and are acquainted with the political situation here. The county will vote about 5000 in the coming primary. Judge Tillman is resident of this
 county, and while he has many warm friends, he has many bitter enemies.
 We do not think he will get majority of the votes in this county. Judge Bratton has good following in this county and clean record. The charges of graft and dishonesty that have been
 indulged in by other candidates are nowhere made against Judge Bratton.
 He will get the votes of those who are not willing to elect one candidate on the demerits of anothef. He will get a good heavy vote shfngton county and we are satistiys. iu-A s--'S :
