notwithstanding for great prin
cipie," yet So making use of tho fran
chise as to defeat it and to enthrone
the common enemy.
TODAY THE COMBINED FORCES
FIGHTING FOR NATIONAL PRO-
Hl6lTloN-takine Uncle Sam out of
the rum business, If you please
ARE NEARER TO THEIR GOAL
THAN EVER BEFORE IN HISTORY.
We know it and our Skowheean
friend must realize it, and must also
reaIizo that it is not the party Pro-
hibitionists who are bringing it about.
Now, as man to man, we ask our
respected friend if it would not be
terrific blow to the movement to lose
Maine from the ranks of prohibition
states.
There lies the secret of the danger
to the cause in the position of our
friend, we are honestly convinced.
We may have been all wrong in
what we have believed to be the only
way to down the liquor interests but
we believe it will be rather difficult to
Maine today who would honestly pro-
nounce as "sophistry'' our work in re-
cent years.
We believe it is a duty of every
man to ask of himself (and insist
on an answer) whether or not he is
in a hopeless minority" Is it any
credit to a mans intelligence to stand
helplessly and hopelessly pushing at
an immovable object to get it out of
his path, when there is a path around
it?
We are convinced, also, that while
our party Prohibitionist friends are
considering the fact that we are al
most at the apex in the march for
national prohibition, they should con-
slider, also, that in the White House
today, in the office of the Secretary
of State, and in the offices of several
other members of the Presidents Of
ficiai family, are men opposed in prin-
ciple and by the example of their daily
life, to the saloon interests which DOM
mate their party in Maine. We be-
lieve these men at the head of nation
al affairs would do anything in their
limited power to curtail the strength
of the liquor evil if the people. uniting
with the strongest force in sight,
would stand together and demand to
be relieved of the burden.
We answer our friend that we DO
consider his (ard our) first duty to
be within the State, for it's direct and
powerful effect upon the national
question. We believe the first advance
toward taking Uncle Sam" out of the
liquor business, must be to hold the
forts we have taken.

People are sometimes slow to recog-

from my back and kidneys for quite a

I was having a spell of that kind, a

him. l got a supply of this remedy

Frying Pan Club Dined.

The Ffying-pa Club of Forrest City Is a time-honored institution, and is composed of six members viz: Senator F. W. DeRossitt, Messrs. Jas. DeRossitt, s. F. Mcdaniel, Ed Land. voigt, J. NJ Davis, and Sam Hodges, whose aggregate ages amount to 382 years, and it has been the beautiful custom of celebrating each members birthday with dining
 On June 7th, Mr Jas. De Rossitt re. joiced in reaching the age of 64 years, and his sisterin-law, Mrs. F. W. DeRossitt celebrated the event with a F o'clock dining to the Frying pan Club. Messrs. Sam Hodges, Ed Land voigt, J M Davis, F. w. DeRossitt, Jas. DeRossitt and an invited guest, Dr. H. P. Dooley, spread their feet under a table ladened with all the "goodies" of the season. It was an elegant and sumptuous dining, and was well appreciated, everything that heart could wish being done for the pleasure of herguests, and the boys almost wished the days to roll by swiftly 10 bring about another birth day anniversary. The only regret on this ocssion was the absence Of MT. s. P. Nc Daniel, who sent his regrets.
 AS If anticipating the almost wishes of the Club, Col. Ed Landvoigt, on Thursday, June l1th, toed the 74th milestone, and on this occasion, Mrs. E. L.

A Revival at Goodwin.

We started meeting at Goodwin, May 3lst, and carried it on for ten days. The Christian people seemed to be greatly revived. They deserve much credit for the interest they took in the meeting.
 We had good crowds every night for a place the size of Goodwin. It was estimated on Sunday night that there were about two hundred people out to church.
 On Tuesday afternoon Bro Moore preached to the mothers, from Rom l2:l, using the word Mother instead of Brethren. We think this was one of the most healthful services of all. The people say: "The revival has certainly been great blessing to the town"
 The Evangelist preached the old time gospel and had the people to sing the old.time songs.
