Senator Kirby Uses the
Thirty Pieces OF Silver

How Senator w. F. Kirby
used the go pieces of silver"
sent to him by 80 residents of
Jonseboro as a criticism of his
stand on the matter of arming
merchant ships is told in the
following message from the
Senator to the men who sent
the silves:
"Messrs N F. Lamb, C. D.
Frierson, and % others, Jones'
boro, Ark.
Il am using the money sent
by you thirty 10-cent patriots
in derision Of my standing by
my country to inform you by
wire that about 10000 enlisted
men are now needed in the
army and navy and something
like 1000 officers, and prob
ably an additional 100000
will be required in the next 90
days. The list Of your names is
kept so that they may be check
ed if any of you enlist, but I
expect my young son will be
gray with age before two per
cent of you will go to the front
unless eonscripted."

Women are Refused
Poll Tax Receipts

Little Rock, March 12.-
Basing his action on the opin-
ion of Attorney General John
D. Arbuckle, that women can
not vote in primariesuntil
Walter Taylor, chief deputy
under W. G. Hutton, sheriff
and collector Of Pulaskicounty,
declined to accept payment of
poll tax by several women Sat-
urday.
Attorney General Arbuckle
pointed out in his opinion that
the time for assessing would
elapse before the law becomes
effective, if the initiative and
referendum is not invoked
against the suffrage act, it
could not be made effective UNI
til 1918.
However, her attorneys,
desiring to have their opinions
become known to the public
especially TO the new element
of voters in the primaries, have
been giving out their opinions
claiming the women have &
right to vote in any primary
election after June 7, provided
they have assessed and paid
the poll tax and penalties, as
provided in sections 1892 and
1908, Kirby & Castles Digest
However, these are merely
opinions" and should the wo-
men desire to vote before the
1918 primaries, the courts will
determine the matter.
The ladies, with very few
exceptions, appear to be little
concerned in regard to just
when the privilege of voting in
primaries becomes effective.

NEGRO HAWKlNSDIES
in CHAIR TUESDAY
Confessed Slayer of Mrs. Ben
Giles and Baby Electrocut-
ed at Pen Tuesday

Little Rock, March 10
John Hawkins, Ashdown negro,
charged with the brutal muir
der of Mrs. Ben Giles and her
15-months-old daughter, was
electrocuted at the State peni-
tertiary early Tuesday. Haw-
kins, since shortly after his ar
rest at Ashdown, has freely adj
ed the double murder, hav-
ing confessed a few hours af-
ter his arrest.
Hawkins only defense was
that he was intoxicated.
The negro had been employ
ed by Mr.. Giles, railroad sec
ton gang foreman, and knew
that Giles kept considerable
sum of money in his home. One
Saturday afternoon he went to
the Giles home and while there
surprised Mrs. Giles.
The. woman, grasping her
little child, endeavored to es-
cape from the negro. He fol-
lowed her for a quarter of
mile, when Mrs. Giles, exhaust
ed, stopped. While she was
pleading for her life and that
of her child, the negro shot
her. He then dubbed the baby
to death.
The negro attempted to put
the blame for the crime upon
Mr.. Giles, but when cross
questioned by detectives, adj
mitted the falsity of his story,
and took officers to his home
and produced money and a
pocketbook he had taken from
the Giles home after the muir
der.

Our Spring Cleaning Should StartEarIy

Spring is here and it is time
to begin to think and plan of
cleaning up, identifying and
putting a touch Of new life
into things.
Every town, no matter how
small, should have a "City
Beautiful" Club. This is an or
ganization that is almist indis-
pensible if a town IS to bemade
attractive and kept soft makes
no difference how neat and or
derby the citizens may be about
their premises or the merchants
about their business houses,
there are bound to be a thou
sand and one things that need
the attention of a special or
ganization created for the pur-
pose.
There never was a truer ak
ION coined than whats ev-
erybody's business is nobody's
business" This applies most
forcibly to many things that
tend largely to make or mar
the looks of a town.
Now that the warm weather
IS coming on, the labors of the
city beautifiers will be in great
demand. Just now, after the
ravages of the winters storms,
nature presents her most de-
pressing aspect, and much at
tention will be required if she
is to reclothe the face of the
earth in her original garments
Of beauty. Unsightly washes
and gulleys, filled up bitches
and drains, accumulations of
weeds and trash and leaves
and twigs are to be removed,
and nature given her fair
chance to do her best.
1t is in this CAPACITY that the
order loving women of the
town show to advantage. Wo-
men always have keener eye
for beauty and harmony than
men. Start out a committee of
energetic women to supervis-
ing the cleaning up of a town
and they will find nuisances
and unsightly places of which
the men had never thought.
Just here we would like to
offer a suggestion in connec-

ton with identifying the town.
The problem of the vacant
lot has always been the hard
est one for the town beautifyers
to solve. The average owner
pays little attention to it, hence
it invariably presents a neg
lected and desolate appear
ance. Now this season is going
to see a demand for every dol
lars worth of food products
that this country can produce
and these vacant lots should,
wherever possible, be turned
to account to swell the output.
Any kind of growing crop
corn, potatoes, vegetabIes-are
far preferable to coat of
weeds.
When this is done, turn at
tention to the back yards. You
will find many of them that
now are refuse dumps, but that
can be made places of beauty
and usefulness.
Most towns are like some
people. They will keep the main
streets and buildings presen-
table, but the more obscure
places and the alleys are neg
lected and permitted to fall in
to decay. Taken to task in the
matter, the authorities often
reply that strangers and visit
tors nnver see these places,
anyway, so it doesn't matter.
No, but we see them, which is
worse. Strangers might see
them and go away and forget
them but we must live with
them, which is liable to breed
neglect and disorder in oursel-
YES. A man with a sore toe may
know that it is hidden from
the public, but he never forgets
that it is sore.
Always bear this in mind.
The town will be beautiful or
the reverse. A beautiful and
well-kept home, with foul al
ley in the rear and a neglect
ed street in front, is a standing
reproach to its owner. He
should haev sufficient pride
Nto see that his surroundings
harmonic with his possessions
1t is time to get busy in New.

THEY WON'T COME OUT

Jonsboro, March 1p.-Today
another chapter was added to
the cruel war that is raging be
tween United States Senator
William F. Kirby and 80 we'll
known business and profession
al men Of this county. The war
started when the local men
sent Senator Kirby 80 pieces of
silver and a letter that denoun-
ced him as a modern Judas IS
CARROT because he did not sup
port President Wilson in the
crisis with Germany.
Senator Kirby used the 30
dimes in sending the Jonesboro
men a telegram in which he
called them "10-eent patriots"
and reminded them that the
United States needs men for
its army.
Today the local men respon-
ded with the following tele-
gram to the senator:
Biennial Appropriation Bill
Kirby,
United States Senate, Wash
ington, D. C.
when did you find out that
your country needs an army?
While we are timid Outright
ing, we promise that as many
of us will enlist as there will
be of you. Anyhow, we gave
our country our moral support,
which you have not done. Did
