To my mind there is no ques-

to the lay mind, but it is the law

SPECIAL RULES"
NEEDED.
The only way to get around
the proposition is to induce the
Rules Committee to bring in a
Special rule making it lin order
f" to vote on the question of pro-
viding Uncle Sam with the neces-
say establishments in which he
may make his own armor plate.
guns, powder, etc. But the
Rule Committee is a most con-
servativs body and it is not easy
to convince its members that a
special rule" is desired bv the
House. or Is a wholesome thing.
even if desired.
Those of us who favor govern
ment manufacture of munitions
scratched our heads over the
problem, and after much confer
ring decided to call a Democratic
caucus and endeavor to instruct
the Rules Committee to present
to the House all the special
rules" needed to enable the
House to express it's opinions on
this. I
OBJECT TO INSTRUCTIONS
Now committees. especially the
big, powerful committees, do not
like to be instructed. They feel
that such action touches their
dignity and they are firmly of
the belief that the House should
leave it to them" ;"
Therefore we experienced some
difficulty in securing the fifty
signatures of Democratic Con-
gressmen which had to be at
tached to the call before the
members of the party could be
gathered together in caucus, A
committee consisting of Crosses
of Ohio, Taggart of Kansas, Van
Dyke, of Minnesota, Tavenner,
of Illinois and myself did the
work.
No impartial observer could
question the temper Of the Cau-
cus-the majority wa.ted to
take the profits out of war"
and with surprising unanimity
the Rules Committee was direct
ed to dispense with red tape and
permit the members of the House
to go on record. At the same
time the caucus was determined
that the Question of National
Defense Should Not Be Made A
Party Issue. 1t was agreed that
every member should be given
the opportunity to vote on all
phases of the problem as his
judgment ano conscience dictated
That's the democratic way of
doing things and under ordinary
circumstances the Democratic
caucus Of the House is one Of the
most democratic gatherings in
the world. Seldom or never. is
any attempt made to bind and
gag the members. Those who.
because of platform pledge or
conscientious scruple, feel that
they cannot go with the majority
are given the right to absolve
themselves from the decision OF
the caucus, and are permitted to
vote as they deem proper. AS a
result, there is no ''bolting." in
the usual sense. and at almost
every meeting some member dis
sents from the majority and no
one thinks of disciplining the
protesting brother.

We may go so far as to say
that "the munitions must be

PROF. RAMSEY
RESIGNS POSITION

Prof. Jas. W. Ramsey, who has
served in the capacity of principal
of the Washington High School
for the past three terms, has ten.
dered his resignation effective at
the close of the present term, hav.
ing accepted the superintendency
of the city schools of Paragould,
in the northern part of the state.
Prof. Ramsey has given splen-
did satisfaction in the school here
to both the members of the school
board and to the patrons of the
school and his sole reason n
making a change is that the Par
position offers a higher
salary. He is one of the leading
young educators of the state and
Washington unhesitatingly rec
ommends him to the people of
Paragould as a splendid school
man and wide-awake citizen.
No successor to Mr.. Ramsey
has yet been selected for the
school here, but a number of ap-
plications have been filed with

RETRIAL DENIED
IN ELECTION CASE

On last Monday the Supreme
Court refused the Hope attorneys
rehearing in the county seat
case. Washington is now the le-
gal county seat and has been
since the opinion of the Supreme
Court, which reversed Judge G..
r. Haynie's findings, was handed
down some weeks ago.
This is the fourth time the case
has been in the Supreme Court;
first when the Washington attor-
neys obtained an order for an in
spection of the poll books. The
removal attorneys carried the
matter up and the order to show
up the poll books was sustained.
The Hope attorneys then went
back and asked for a rehearing,
which was denied. The Wash
ington attorneys then appealed
from the judgment of the lower
court in declaring that removal
had carried and the decision was
reversed. Hope attorneys then
went back to the Supreme Court
and asked for a rehearing, which
was denied.
People all over the county, north
south, east and weSt-and in the
middle-are rejoicing in this vic
tory for Justice and right.

ONCE REPUBLICAN,
NOW DEMOCRAT

Judge l.. G.. Smith burned his
bridges behind him in 1900 when
he wrote the following letter to
HI. Remmel, then candidate
for governor against JEFF Davis,
and first lord in waiting to Pow
ell Clayton, Republican boss of
Arkansas. He offered to sell his
political prospects for even less
than a mess of pot ticker.
Arkansas does not approve of
a man who slips in andout of one
party until he wears the hole
slick Democracy will pass upon
Judge Smiths reflections in the
| primary March %.
Here is Juge Smiths letter.
De Witt, Ark. Aug. "A, 1900.
Hon. H. l.. Remmel:
Little Rock, Ark.
Dear Sir
| understand that
Jeff Davis has offered reward
of S25 if you can show a letter
from a democrat that expects to
vote for you on the 3rd day OF
September next for governor.
Take him up, and read this
letter from your first stump
(if it be true.) The under
signed is a life long democrat
and expects to cast his vote for
H. l.. Remmel on the 3rd day oi
September next, and if he pays
the reward do a christian act
give it to the churches at your
first disposal. | will not not
enter into details why / am op
posed to Jeffie, but this will give
him another opportunity to jump
onto another democrat in order
to be elected governor.
Yours for success,
L. G.. Smith"
If Judge Smith should be
Nominated on March % would ne
hand the choicest state appoint
mentS to the crowd he jumped u
in 1900? If nominated by the
Democratic party, which ht
publicly deserted in 1900, would
he expect the party to suppor
him in the generalelection? Cal
he consistently abandoned th'
party in 1900 and then ask it t.
make him governor in 1916?
Refusal to support the noml
nee has always been the mos
objectionable of political sins
Judge Smith must first absOlv
himself from such sin before m
can expect reward at the hand
of the Democratic party. Tr.
