The Post Office Situation.

The commission of the present post master. Sam Mullen, expired on Jan. 18th. Mir. Mullen took charge on Feb. II, 1911. Con- gressman Jacoway was in Ozark early in December looking over the Democratic post office mater ial and left without even drop ping hint as to who would be the next post master. There are six live wire applicants for the job and each received a let ter yesterday from MT. Jacoway stating that the name of the new post master would be made public in a few days. Each ap- plicant is very sure that he is the elect. The applicants are as follows, you may take your pick as they are all good and all have friends who are sure their man will win: Prof. H. A. Nick ell, A. D. Reynolds, Miss Ethel Garrett, Sam McLane., Mrs. En- ma King and Tom Fleeman.

Annual Teachers Convention

The officers of the Arkansas State Teachers Association are putting forth every effort to make the next annual conven- ton of the Association, to be held at Little Rock, April 8, 9, and 10, the largest and most suc- cessful one that has ever been held. The general programs and the progams for the differ ent section meetings will be un- usally strong.
 The following distinguished educators and speakers have al- ready accepted places on the program for the meeting: Dr. P. P. Claxton, United States Com missioner of Education; State Superintendent F. G. Blair, of Illinois; Miss Julia Lathrop, Chief Childrens' Bureau. De- partment of Labor, Washington D. C.; State Superintendent T. H. Harris, of Louisiana; Presi- dent E. 0. Lovett of Rice Insti- ute. Houston, Texas; Prof. w. K. Tate of the George Peabody College for teachers; Miss Susie Powell, State School Improve ment Organizer of Mississippi; Mrs. J. l. Moore, President Ark ansas Federation of Women's Clubs.
 Besides these, a number of other speakers of national promi- hence will be secured for the April meeting.
 The School Boards of the state can render a signal service both to their teachers and to their schools if they will make it poss- ibIe for their teachers to attend the State Association meeting in April. The standard of at- tendance for the meeting has been set at ?, 800 teachers.

Fine Feathers.

Said Senator Reed; If you have a bird that is of no use ex- cept for it's feathers what does the Senator think God Almighty made it for anyway? 1 honestly want to know why there should be any sympathy or sentiment about a long-legged, long-necked bird that lives in swamps and eats tadpoles why we should worry ourselves into a frenzy because a lady adorns her hat with it's feathers. Of what in terest is it to the people of the United States to protect birds that eat insects in South America? !? Instead of making these things dearer. I am in favor of making them cheaper. v
 It appears to have been upon such sapient arguments as this powerfully reenforced by certain importers of plumage for mill inery purposes that the Senate struck out the Houses prohibi- tion of the importation of plu- mage except ostrich feathers.
 There is no reason which will satisfy truly practical man as to why there should be any sen- timent about birds anything else in the universe that is exter- for to his own clothes; but a great many vaporish persons have a soft sort of feeling that restraints them from attempting to interpret the purposes of the Almighty in terms of a tariff bill. Seeing a very mar velous creature. even though 1t eats tadpoles. they do not know but it's Author may have had something besides Schedule c in mind.
 Possibly the sentiment that seeks to protect birds is foolish; but, from the saying about the fall of a sparrow to Coleridge's He prayeth best who loveth best all things both great and small" a number of very respec- table authorities may be cited in support of it.

Mail-Order Houses.

Before the editors hair was as gray as it is now he used to print column after column against mail-order houses and showing the buyers how they were working against their own interest in sending their money out of the country. We tried to show them that when they want ed favors, credit, contributions for churches, schools, or charity they did not get any from the mail-order houses, but from the home merchant. But you do not see any arguments against the mail-order houses in these columns now. We do not want to fight everybody and we have found out that a great many of the merchants send to mail-order houses for stationery, sale bills, etc. Recently a merchant sent us an announcement free stuff
 which he wanted in the paper, which he had written on station cry bought from a mail-order house. This is the second time this has occurred. A profession al man sent us card of thanks written on mail-order stationery, for which he paid more than we would have charged him. Now, we believe these men have not thought much about this matter or they would not have sent their money away. They evidently need a newspaper to print their notices in and as busi- ness men they must know pa per to live, must have patronage. If they could not sell their goods how could they continue in busi- ness? A newspaper sells their space and prints stationery to secure the money to operate on. If everybody should follow the example of these men and send their job work out of town, how could newspaper exist?

Arcadian Trio.

The Arcadian Trio, of the affiliated Lyceum Bureaus was presented last night at the Gem Theatre under the auspices of the Christian Endeavor of the Presbyterian church. This fea- ture was billed in at the eleventh hour and as result was not ad- vertised properly, considering this and the extremely cold weather the management had an extra good crowd.
 Miss Morrison's reading entitl- ed, the 'Mumps" was probably the feature of the evening. but the part entitled Memories" in which the entire Company had part reached the climax both as very serious and as ex- tremely funny. MT. Van Pelt kept the house roaring with his stories of the Ford car while Misses Morrison and Riley touch ed many Scotch English heart with Maggie" and many other Scottish airs.
 Altogether it was, we thin k, the best attraction this season.

graphs, factories and works, and that those who do will have an advantage of you when you buy the product. If it was the pro- perty of the public you would have just as much to say about the control of them as anybody else. Everybody being in the same relation to them it would be to the interest of all to so control them as to give the greatest equity. Political liber- ty is worth nothing toyou except to obtain industrial liberty. Suppose the people of Russia were granted political liberty to. day, it would do them no good unless they elected men who would change the laws regard ing land, taxes and labor, would it? Political liberty, the privi- ledge of voting, is only a means to an end. That end is to ar- range the ownership of property that each and all will stand on equal footing. If voters fail to do this, they are too ignorant to know what their political franchise is for. They can say by their laws that the large land owner may be exempt from tax ation or that his pay be more than the small one.

Two Famous "Inventors"

Elmer E. Silvers, the Butler lawyer, on one of his recent trips to this city, told a story which cotvulsed the habitues of of the count house.
 Mr. Silvers relates that two old boxers of Bates county went to Butler a few years ago on a spree. and that finally they fell into an argument as to who was the greatest man the world ever produced. First one and anoth- CT celebrity was mentioned, but the boozers could not agree upon any particular man. and were on the point of coming to blows, when one of the pair had hap py thought. The greatest man that the world ever produced was the man that invented whiskey,' he announced. His partner thoroughly agreed with him. and they went off to bed happy, and with the satisfaction of having made a wonderful dis covery.
 The next morning the two old fellows were awakened by the splitting headaches and terrific thirsts which follow such dissi- patton, and their views of life in general had undergone remark able change. Jake" said one, you remember what you said last night about the greatest man?" Yes" replied his part ner, "what about it?" Well, just want to say that the fel- low who invented water was no d-slouch.

Dry Toast.


 In the camphor ballsaat last, For the miracle has happened
 And the olden days are past. That which made Milwaukee fa- nous does not foam in Tennessee And the lid in old Missouri is As tight locked as can be;
 And the comic paper Colonel And his cronies well may sigh
 For the mint is waving gaily, And the South is going dry.
 By the still-side on the hillside In Kentucky all is still,
 And the only damp refresh ment must be dipt up from the Till.
 Nawth Ga 'lina's stately ruler Gives his soda glass shove. And discusses local option with The South Ca'lina guy. It is useless at the fountain
 To be winkful of the eye, For the cocktail glass is dusty, And the South is going dry, It is water, water everywhere, And not a drop to drinkn' We no longer hear the music
 Of the mellow crystal Clink When the Colonel and the Major And the Gen 'ral and the Jedge Meet to have a little drink,
 To give their appetites an edge; For the eggnog now is nogless, And the rye has gone awry, And the punch bowl holds carna- tions, for the South is going dry. All the nightcaps now have tassels, and are worn upon the
 head.
 Not the nightcaps that were taken when nobody went to bed. And the breeze above the blue Grass is as solemn as is death, For it bears no pungent clove Or tang on its odorific breath; And each man can walk the chalk line when the stars are in
 the sky,
 For the fizz glass now is fizzless And the South is going dry, Lay the jest about the julep
 Meath the chestnut tree at last For there's just one kind of moonshine, and the olden days
 are past.
 The water wagon rumbles thu The Southland on its trip, And it helps no one to drop oil To pick up the drivers whip; For the mint beds now are pas lures and the cork screw hang
 eth nigh;
 And is still along the still-slde, And the South is going dry.

The Garment Workers.-Here's a
tip for the real men and women who
want to help the garment workers
and who find that their plea for mer-
cy to Mayor Thompson falls on deaf
ears:
Go to the wives and daughters of
the owners of the factories and tell
them how their husbands and fathers
make the money lavished on their
women for the Injuries of life.
Make the wives and daughters
understand that the fine clothes they
wear, the beautiful homes they live:
in and the 1uxuriant autos they ride
in are bought with money coined
from the souls and bodies of under
paid garment workers.
Tell them that the indulgent hus-
bands and fathers are so many hui
man hogs who would starve the
women who work for them to make
dolls of the women who live with
them.
Tell them that the indulgent hus-
fathers who are so generous to their
own women are responsible for the
smuggling of garment workers and the
brutality of the hired thugs and
sluggers.
Let them nderstand-these wives
and daughters of the rich hogs of
garment manufacturers - that they
must take the bitter with the sweet;
that they have no right to enjoy the
luxurious life when their brothers
and sisters-the garment workers.
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1915-11-20

are cruelty exploited and condemned
to poverty in order that the manu-
facturers may be rich human hogs.
Get the wives and daughters of
these clothing beasts to go on a
strike at home and refuse to live with
the hogs that refuse to arbitrate.
Why should the finger Of scorn
not point at the wives and daughters
of these employers of thugs and gum
men, these rich exploiters of men
and women, these oppressors of the
poor, these two-legged ghouls?
Undoubtedly there are women
among these wives and daughters
who have ideals, who have a woman
ly sense Of justice, who have some
sympathy for the underpaid servants
Of the greedy bosses-and II an ap-
peal is made to them, if they can be
made to understand, then perhaps
the clothing manufacturers can be
brought to time.
There appears to be no hope of
getting the men of Chicago to help
get justice for the garment workers.
Why not see what the women can do?

this year two-thirds have been
bought by farmers-a pretty good
addition to the good roads army
Those who think that the majority of
the people of wisconsin want to re
trench in road building and improve
ment may have been right last year,
and they may be right this year,
but they will not be right when the
farmers add 10000 automobiles an
nually for a few more years.
People as a whole usually have
about what they want and there is
no question that the people of Wis
cOnsin want good roads. Near Mil
Waukee a farmer whose town refused
to push the good roads matter, hav-
ing no better implement, drove the
teeth of a common harrow smooth
with the bars, cut the high portions
in the manner the drag is commonly
used and then turned it over for the
smoothing process. He made good
road in front of his farm. There are
thousands Of farmers like this man
who would take care Of the roads
through their farms if supplied with
an improved pattern of road drag.
There is something in this worth
thinking about.

Do the right thing at the right
time.

In time of kidney danger Doan's
Kidney Pills are most effective.
Plenty of Ladysmith evidence of
their worth.
G. w. Daniels, Ladysmith, Wis,
says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are worth
their weight in gold. Just twenty-five
years ago l began to suffer with my
back and kidneys. l had dull, heavy
ache in the small of my back and
was so weak and lame across my
loins that it would nearly kill me to
stoop over or straighten. At night |
had to get up every fifteen minutes
to pass the kidney secretions. If
left the secretions standing, they de-
posted sediment. l really thought l
was going to have Bright's disease
and I couldn't get anything that
would help me until l used Doan's
hluhGy MS AHey e'oCeu Inc An''ShN
and it seemed no time before the
pain, lameness and weakness in my
back had left and my kidneys were
all right That was several years ago
and l haven't had any trouble to
speak of since When I feel a little
weakness in my back or my kidneys
show signs Of fault, l take a dose or
two of Doan's Kidney Pills. They
fix me UP all right every time"

simply ask for kidney remedy

that Mr.. Daniels had. FosterMilburn
