REID is FOE OF
PUBLICITY ACT
Would Exempt lincoln County From
Statute which Gives People
knowledge OF Officials
Conduct

An attack against the publicity
act, given a majority by the voter.
of the State at the general election
last fall, was instigatcd on the floor
OF the House yesterday afternoon
when II. G. Reid, representative
from Lincoln County, introduced a
bill to exempt his county from pro.
visions of the Law. Amendments
were filed by Representative a. G.
Gray Of Independence TO have pro-.
visions Of the bin apply 10 indie
pendence aud Columbia cout ties.
The bill aud amendments were re-
ferred to the judiciary committee,
which will determine legality Of
such an amendment 10 a State law.
Act. No. 3. as the publicity
measure Is oilicnlly known, was
submitted to the people at the 1914
general election, and received ma
iorlty Of between II, 900 aud o, 600.
1t provide, for the advertising in
newspapers Of orders aud actions Of
various departments Of city, county
aud State governments.
Opponents Of Representative
Reid's bill declare that. should HE
bull become a law, there could be
no legal constitutional amendments
attached to the constitution. The
law provides advertising OF any pro-
posed constitutional amendment m
one paper in every county in the
state. Under MIR. Reid's bill, it Is
said, there could be no legal publ.
cations Of constitutional amend
ment in Lincoln County.
Other arguments against the bill
are that, should such bile be legal,
any county could exempt itself
from any State law. Statewide pro-
hibltion, even, would not apply to
any county that could get itself ex-
empted through a bill such as Mr..
Reds. It's pointed out that legal.
ity of such a measure would be on
the same principle as for the State
10 exempt itself through a State
law for provisions of a federal law.

THE COUNTY FAIR

The farmer gets more out ol
the fair than anyone else. The

ment 10 a farmer il is education
Let MS take a stroll through the
iair grounds and linger a mo.
ment at a few OF the points OF
greatest interest. We will first
visit the mechanical department
and hold communion with the
worlds greatest thinkers,
You are now attending a con.
gress Of the mental giants in me-
chanical science OF all ages. They
are addressing you in tongues oi
iron and steel and in language
mute and powerful tell an elo-
quent story OF the worlds prog
reSs. The inventive geniuses are
the most valuable farm hands we
have and they perform an en-
during service 10 mankind. We
can all help others for a brief
period while we live, but It takes
n master mind 10 tower into the
realm Of science and light a torch
OF progress that will illuminate
the pathway Of civilization for
future generations. The men who
gave us the sickle. the binder,
the cotton gin and hundreds OF
other valuable inventions work
in every field on earth and will
continue their labors as long as
time. Their bright intellects have
conquered death and they will live
and serve mankind on and on
forever, without money and
without price. They have shown
us how grand and noble it is to
work for others; they have also
taught us lessons in economy and
efficiency, how to make one hour
do the work Of two or more ;
have heightened our lives, multi
piled our opportunities and taken
toll off the back of humanity.
They are the most practical
men the world ever produced.
Their inventions have stood the
acid test OF utility and efficiency.
Like all useful men. they do not
seek publicity, yet millions OF
machines sing their praises from
every harvest field on earth and
as many plows turn the soil in
mute applause OF their marvellous
achievements.

FARMER RADFORD ON
WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

The home is the greatest contri-
button OF women 10 the world.
and the hearthstone is her throne.
Our social structure is built
around her, and social righteous
ness is in her charge. Her beau
tiiul life lights the skies Of hope
and her refinement is the charm
OF twentieth century civilization.
Her graces and her power arc
the cumulative products OF gen.
erations Of qucenly conquest. and
her crown OF exalted womanhood
is jeweled with the wisdom of
sanity mothers. She has been
a great factor in the glory OF our
country, and her noble achieve
ments should not be marred or
her hallowed influence blighted
by the coarser duties Of citizen
ship. American chiyalry should
never permit her 20 bear the bur
dcns of defending and maintain
ing government. but should pre-
serve her unsullied from the al.
lied influences Of polite. and
protect her from the weighty re-
sDonsibilities OF the sordid affair,
OF life that will crush her IDEAL
and lower her standards. The
motherhood OF the farm is our
inspiration, she is the guardian
OF our domestic welfare and a
guide 20 a higher lie, but direct.
ing the affairs Of government +,
not within woman's sphere. and
political gossip would cause her
TO neglect the home, forget TO
mend our clothes and burn the
biscuits.

CONCRETE DIPPING WATTS
The Most Practical Method For Tick

The most practical method for tick
eradication in Arkansas is the use Of
'he concrete dipping vat and the sys.
tomatic dipping Of cattle Immediate.

eradication district, from - 10 40
dipping watts are built I'm various sec
tlons Of the county Tho watts are To-
Gated SO that cattle will not have to

be dipped.
CGtue are allowed free range and
are not quarantined in pastures. but
every three weeks during the summer
season they are dipped at a designated
vat Where the majority of people
want to eradicate the tick it only
takes about two years TO clean a coup-
~. however, II can be done quicker
The only reason for taking two years
is that with some, cattle owners IN
different or hostile, cattle are often
hard to find on the range.
The system Of constructing dipping
watts and the systematic dipping OF
cattle has passed beyond the expert.
mental stage. In Arkansas the sya
tematic dipping of cattle was frs;
tried by the writer in Newton county.
The cattle were allowed the free
range and were dipped every three
weeks. In the fall they were permit

CRITICISED BY BANKER.
George w Norris Comments on DR..
Hexamer's Protest.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 15.-George W.
Norris, well known banker, former d.
rector of the Department OF Wharves,
Docks and Ferries, director OF the Fed
eral Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, man
ager OF the Beneficial Savings Fund OF
Philadelphia and a director OF the phil
adelphia Life Insurance Company, COM
mented this afternoon on DIR. Hexamer's
protest against the proposed billion dol
lar oar to the Allies.
DIR. Hexamer liz probably within his
rights In asking citizens to appeal to
the President and the Secretary OF State
to 'thwart the loan,'" said Mr.. Norris.
but when he asks banking depositors
TO protest against their money being
used he Is doing what In point OF
ethics Is exactly On a par with the eff
forts occasionally made by large adver-
Users to control the policy of news
papers or the periodical efforts or a
certain class Of politicians to influence
the political action of bank officers by
threats OF injury to the business OF their
institutions.
From the patriotic point OF view.
DR.. lis e~ndeavoring to prevent
the profitable use of the accommodating
surplus capital of this country in de-
veloping business with customers who
want TO buy our cotton, grain, meats.
wooHen goods, shoes and other manu-
featured products In large quantities.
THIS liz on a par with the efforts OF
the Austrian Ambassador to cripple our
industries. We had a remedy against
me Ambassador, but ! do not know
whether the law affords any remedy
against DR.. Hexamer."

GOLD.
Milwaukee Germans Taking steps
20 Thwart Loan.

MILWAUKEE, Wis. Sept. l5.-Milwau-
kee bankers to-day discovered that DER
man depositors are apparently. prepar-
Ing to circumvent any plans to use their
deposits for the fotation OF a billion dol
lar loan TO the Allies by withdrawing
considerable sums, demanding gold for
their accounts. and II Is presumed tina.
this gold is being put In safe deposit
boxes and thus boarded.
Three Milwaukee Germans OF consid-
erable prominence announced to-day
that they had been taking the nrst
steps to save their deposits from pos
sible depreciation by calling for gold
payments. One obtained 81, 600 and the
other two $4,000 each. The bankers,
however, admit that this action Is much
more prevalent thar has been supposed,
and they are already considering plans
for a refusal to permit gold to be with
drawn from deposit cou when II is
suspected that 1t Is for boarding.
The Germans who have been with
drawing deposits In gold admit that
they hope by this course to prevent the
success OF the loan. by reduction of
the banking reserve.
