is nothing to this beautiful equality

Sharp County record., 1914-04-10
| GOING LAW UPHELD
| IN SUPREME COURT
States Highest Court Holds
Act Not In Conflict With
The Constitution.

One of the weeks important hap
penings in Arkansas was the de-
cision of the supreme court, rem
dered Monday, upholdine the Going
liquor law passed by the last gener-
al assembly.
AS is generally understood, the
going act permits the opening of
saloons only in those places wherein
a majority of the white adults Pc
tition the county court to grant sa-
loon license.
Circuit Judge Hendricks of Pu-
laski county held the law unconsti-
tutional on the ground that it de-
prived the negro citizen Of his
rights, and the case went on to the
higher court.
On this phase Of the question tie
supreme court said:
In regard to the objection that
the act in question is in conflict
with the fourteenth amendment OF
the United States constitution 1t
may be said that it has uniformly
been held by the Supreme Court OF
the United States that the right to
engage in selling intoxicating liq.
uors is not one Of the privileges OF
immunities of citizens of the Unit.
ed States which the states ore foa
hidden to abridge by the fourteenth
amendment TO the constitution
The courts generally treat the liq.
uor traffic as being wholly within
the control Of the state through the
exercise of its police power, and Its
sale may be regulated or restricted
as the state sees fit, even to the ex-
tent of total prohibition"
Along the same line, the court
holds that the procuring of sigma
lures to a petition Is not an elec-
ton, If it were an election only
male persons over 81 years of age
and who possess other legal quail
fications would be allowed to par
ticipate.
The case will be carried by the
liquor men to the United States
Supreme Court.

Shallow Cultivation

hope the farmers in Arkansas
will pay lots Of attention to shallow
cultivation this year. Hundreds OF
them are following that plan, while
thousands are not. Let those who
do not watch the success of those
who do. Shallow cultivation is
easier on man and beast, and they
can both cultivate more land that
way and besides that method is
the best. Shallow cultivation is
only a means to an end. 1t has
two purposes. The first is to keep
the plow tools out from among the
small growing roots after they get
to growing The roots feed the
plants, and they can't do it we'll If
they are torn to pieces and have to
re-adjust themselves after every
plowing. The second is to keep the
moisture in the ground 10 make the
crop grow. OF course when there
Is plenty Of rain all during the
season 1t does not make much diff
ference. By cultivatine shallow
with side harrows and light tools
you keep the dirt for an inch or
more on top well pulverized, and if
it is dry season it will make a
dust, or what Is called dust
mulch, When there Is covering
Of dust the moisture from below
will not evaporate through 1t,
Moisture will evaporate where the
soil Is cultivated deep and the loose,
moist earth thrown up where the
sun can shine on It,
