Right now fall fashions are in.

BURGlAR'S WEDNESDAY \. M.
Break Into J.amm & Co.'S, Store and Night Watch man Frightens Them
 Away.

Bang, "'bang. shoot him. " bang" bang, bang"
 At 3:15 o'clock Wednesday morning the citizens on the plaza were awaken by a series of rapid shots. following a crash of plate glass.
 Night watchman Stewman had discover ed a burglar in Lamm & Co.'S. store. The burglar had pried off from the window the iron bars which were over it for protection, using big steel pipe as a lever. After he had entered the store he removed the harricade from the rear door. As the officer approached he started to escape by this door but close fired shot drove him back to the front where he escaped by smashing the big plate glass door. thru which he jumped and ran across the plaza, Watchman Stewman shooting at him as he ran.
 The blood hounds of Henry Adams were put on the trail soon after daylight but not until a number of people had been in the store and around the place where the burglar entered and hence it was difficult to trail.
 Jake Lamm received congratu- lations of his merchant friends for his good luck in such a light loss. One o f his merchant friends advanced the idea that his store was the special object of burglars because of his regular advertising. Good business man like he is, Jake told lem that it was possibly true and that he was glad of it. that the adver- Using of his store, pretty stock ard rare bargains had so inn pressed the burglar that he just HAD to have lem even if he didn't have the money. That burglars as well as others like to get their goods from a progress sive house that advertises. That it proved that quality and not quantity that was worth attrac- tion. Thus spoke Jake as he told lem to watch his ad each week in the ARGUS.

Birthday Dinner Party at

On Monday evening at seven o'clock Mrs. A. N. Gibbs gave a dinner party at her cozy and hospitable home on Fair Haven Farm, l mile east of Zent, con- plimentary to her husbands 43rd birth anniversary.
 Several Brinkley people who were fortunate enough to have invitations and had planned to go out by auto were prevented from enjoying the delightful occasion by the severe storm Monday afternoon.
 The Gibbs family is one of our progressive farmers who moved in a few years ago and who are assisting in the efforts of the progressive element of our citizenship in making our country better and brighter. May there be many more birth days for them to celebrate.

Senator Harry Harris of this county has resigned his position as Secretary of the Arkansas Tax Commission and is reported as having returned to his home in Clarendon.
 Bruce Bullion who was form erly private secretary to Gov. Donaghey and lately chief clerk of the Commission was appointed to Mir. Harris successor.
 Several of Senator Harris friends are inclined to think that his resignation and return home means that he may be in Monroe County politics in the coming primary. Some even going so far as to suggest that he would probably be a candidate for County Judge.

Cotton Plant, June 30, 1915

Cotton Plant. June 30, 1915 Dear ARGUS:
 Both you and Lycurgus invite thoughts on the landed questions of our country and so 1 want to give mine.
 God created the earth, then man and made him ruler over all and placed him in the Garden of Eden, a perfect man. Adam fell and God placed a curse up- on him and commanded that he should go forth and till the soil and earn his bread by the sweat of his face. Lycurgus, do you suppose that when God created the soil and commanded man to till it to earn his bread that he also intended man to garner in thousands of acres of it, move to town and get his bread from the man who does till the soil? No. far from it. What 1 want is when a man who owns a large track of land and leaves it to move to town, then to let 1t go to someone who will till it and then only so much of it as he and family can and will cultivate. Let no man hold more than 20 acres to each work hand of his family.
 Let the Government issue in- terest bearing certificates to the man in town for the value of his land and let the man who tills it pay to the government as rent, this interest. Together with all improvements and taxes this is to be his rent and when he fails to grow a living on the land for two years in succession he shall forfeit all rights to the land. Let his term or time of rental be 99 years if he makes good for that time.
 Let the law prohibit the col cection of all debts by contract thereby abolishing the credit system the running and break ing up of many thousand of farmers and poor men who would have succeeded had it not been for that vampire CREDIT. Let it be be the watchword of ever government raise a living and stop this getting a living. :" Oh, what a Haven of rest and contentment we would have in a short time.
 ] Let's hear from others.
 Yours,
 DU RITE.
