Icity council who fill the measure 70
municipal leadership.
We favor municipal ownership o
the water supply and the electric
lighting plant when adequate sys
TENS can be purchased or installed
We do not approve of macadamizinl
the streets until water mains are
laid for a better water system, ant
when any matchmaking is done we
want 1t to cover large part of the
town-not Simply few blocks.
We favor the extension of the
sewer system to serve thickly settled
parts of the town as it becomes pos.
sible to do so.
We favor the annual Cleanup
Day" and teaching the public to ever
else acre throughout the year to keep
all property clean and sanitary as a
public and private duty. So long as
the individual does not keep his own
premises sanitary and slightly, he will
not deserve the advantages of ma
cadamized streets, street lamps, sewer
and water systems, and we favor con-
sidering individual and collective
cleanliness and freedom from weed
pests when considering applications
for additional street lamps and for
street or other improvements to be
made under direction of the proper
officers.
We favor maintaining the streets
in good condition, doing such repair
as seems necessary therefore, but do
ing very little grading for the next
year or two. We are opposed to the
city buying dirt where excavations
are made and we hereby pledge the
nominees of our ticket to discontinue
such practice If elected.
We favor closer supervision of the
police force and more rigid require
ments Of all officers in the perform
ance Of the several duties enjoined
on them by our ordinances.
We want our city officials to en-
courage all manner of clean sports
and amusements in our city from
foot races and fairs to Fourth of July
celebrations, but we do not approve
of licensing fakirs and carnival COM
panies to take possession of our
streets and the means of fire protec-
ton, thereby increasing fire risks,
the occasion and oppor-
tunty for crime and thus injuring
he business of the local people for
)altry sums paid to the city for IL
lenses. We hold that streets and
franchises, fire apparatus and police
protection are for home people and
lome industry first.
We hold that if Blackfoot owes a
luty to non-residents who are de- |
erVing of kindly consideration and
# being treated as guests, it is the
armer and stockmen who come to
own to trade with our business men.
We owe them the duty of plenty
# hitching racks with grounds kept
n clearly condition and properly
raded SO that their horses may rest
n comfort and the owners can have
ccess to the racks without wading
trough filth. We deem it the duty
f the city government to clean up
UGH places, and to haul in such ma
erial as Is needed to keep the
rounds hard and smooth. We fur
her deem 1t the duty of the city to
eriodically clean up the open lots
here teams are kept or fed while
leir owners are doing their trading.
We believe that it is the desire of
Il that municipal ownership of light,
over and water system be had at |
lie earliest practicable date, consum-
late with our ability to purchase
he same.

Ringgold, La.-Mrs. s. A. Cotter, of this place, writes: Will say that I am perfectly well and the happiest soul on earth. Wish every pellagra sufferer could know of your great remedy. I know how to appreciate health and sympathize with those that are not so blest as l. Am grow ing stronger, gaining in weight and can do anything l ever could. Oh, I know I am well of that horrible disease, and my heart is full of rejoicing I feel that have come out of dense cloud into the blessed sunshine.

 There is no longer any doubt that pei lagra can be cured. Don't delay until it is too late. It is your duty to consult the resoureeful Baughn.
 The symptoms-hands red like sunburn: skin peeling off, sore mouth, the lips, throat and tongue flaming red, with much mucus and choking; indigestion and nausea, either diarrhoea or constipation.
 There is hope; get Baughn's big Free remedy for Pellagra that has at last been found. Address American Compromising Co, box 2087, Jasper, Ala, remembering book on Pellagra and learn about the money is refunded in any case where the remedy fails to cure.-Adv.

COMMITTEE FOR
 EXTENSION WORK
ORGANIZATION PLANNED lN EVERY SECTION OF STATE,
 SAYS DEAN MILLER.
COOPERATION PROVIDED FOR
Passage of the Smith-Lever Agricul- tural Extension Bill May, 1914, Pro-
 vided For Demonstration Work.
Fayetteville

dyeLISNIllC'
 The coming of J. H. Miller to Ar kansas as dean of university extension marked a very important step in the development of the work in the state, particularly in agriculture and home economics. The United States De- partment of Agriculture has been en- gagged in this work in the state for a number of years. It now has over 30 county farm demonstration agents and 20 women canning club agents, as well as a number of specialists from the different bureaus of the Department of Agriculture, who travel. Heretofore the work of these specialists has been largely independent of any organiza- tion.
 The passage of the Smith-Lever Az ricultural Extension bill in May, 1914, providing for cooperative demonstra- tion work, and the passage by the Ar kansas legislature last winter of bill making an appropriation to meet the government appropriation, enabled the College of Agriculture to take up extension work in agriculture and home economies on a large scale
 After the passage of the Smith-Le- yer act the Department of Agriculture ruled that all extension work in the state, including demonstration work, should be done in cooperation with and under the definite management of the College of Agriculture of the state on projects mutually agreed upon by the Department of Agriculture. These two very important pieces of legisla- tion made it possible for the Univer- sity of Arkansas to establish recent ly a complete division of University Extension.
 The University of Arkansas, there fore, in June, 1915, established a di- vision of Extension to include all out side activities of the university, in- cluding the work in agriculture and Tome economcs, correspondence courses, and such other activities as the university may from time to time have the funds or experts to under take.

 Improvements at several of the state charitable institutions are being push ed rapidly and at small expense to the state, according to members of the Board of Control of the State Chari, table Institutions The brick work on the addition to the hospital at toe Confederate Home is completed and the building will be ready for occupan- cy within month.

By the use of patient labor a great saving is being made, and one building, for which $20,000 was appropriated by the legis- 1ature, is being paid out of other funds in the appropriation. On the advice of the board Governor Hays vetoed the $20,000 item.
 Many other minor improvements, including the installing of new boilers at the Arkansas Deaf Mute Institute and repair work at the School for the Blind, is being done by the board this summer

NOT A MATTER OF FIGURES
Number of Churches or Synagoguess Seem to Be of Relatively
 Little Moment.

''Is it progress to go to church or not to go to church % asks Dr. Ernest c. Richardson of Princeton university. Thereupon he answers the question in this wise: What is almost the last word that can be spoken on universal progress at the present stage of af- fairs was once spoken by that most; gracious and polished author of the, most scholarly Life of Our Lord, Dr..

REASON FOR THE MUSTACHE
In Evidence as Having Been Worn by British Soldiers as Measure of
 Military Necessity.

The correspondent who writes to a contemporary suggesting that the British war office authorities should insist on soldiers being clean shaven instead of ordering them to wear mus taches, might have alleged Teutonic influence in the adoption of the mus tache of the British army. The idea was first borrowed from a batch of Austrian officers quartered with some of our troops on the South coast dur ing the Waterloo campaign. It was then taken up by the guards, who very much resented any attempt on the part of mere line regiments to follow the new fashion. The winter cam paign in the Crimea led our men to grow full boards for warmth, and these, modified into flowing whiskers GPicadilly weepers,' as they came to be called) on their return to Lon don, were long regarded as the mark of the man of ashion.-London Chronicle

Former Congressman s. Brundidge

Former Congressman $. Brundtdge of Searcy, who is taking the lead in the movement to initiate a new primary election law under the initiative and referendum to the state constitution, has about completed the draft of the measure and will shorty send out pe- tions for signatures to secure it's sub- mission to the voters of the state at the election to be held in November, 1916 Under the law it will require about per cent of the total vote of the state to secure it's submission. The bill is practically a copy of the measure defeated in the lower house of the last Legislature after it had passed the Senate by practically un- animous vote It was drafted by Q committee of prominent citizens ap- pointed by tho last Democratic state convention when it was held at Pine Bluff. Judge A. J. Walls, chairman of the state central committee, and other members of the organization, have announced their opposition to the bill, and say they will do all in their power to defeat it at the polls. Judge Walls says he is opposed to the proposed bill because it transfers contests between two Democratic can didates from the state central commit tee to the circuit judge. Judge Walls claims that the state central commit tee should settle all such contests. There is also some objection to the clause in the proposed act requiring all political parties to nominate candi- dates through the medium of the pri- mary.
