CITY

COMPARES EXCELLENT ELEC- TRIO LIGHT SERVICE THERE
 WITH THE SELDOM QUALITY
 AND QUANTITY IN THIS CITY
Forrest City Times)

Forrest City is throwing boquets at herself over the excellence ot her water and light service given by a munieipally owned plant from whieh the city is supplied with continuous power. both night and day, with sui fiicient pressure on the water mans in case of fire to throw three-lnch stream over the Elks Club, Hotel Marion and St. Francis county court house. the tallest buildings in the city. Especially gratified do our citizens feel at this particular time over the security this splendid serv- ice provides when a comparison of the very unsatisfactory conditions which prevail in this connection in the thriving neighboring cities of wynne and Marianna, is made. This sweek the local fire department will be further strengthened through the addition of motor fire truck to its equipment This truck is to be pur- chased with the money raised by popular subscription, and, in addi- ton to new hose, ladders and other essential parapehrnaha, will carry a full supply of chemicals, all of which will contribute materially to the confidence and efficiency of the members of the fire department in the discharge of their hazardous duties. The money for the pur- chase of the motor fire truck will be raised by a committee from the city council composed of Messrs. T. A. Buford and John R. Grobmeyer.
 Marianna Is in 8 state of eruption and discontent over the poor service the city is receiving in the important matter of water, lights and power.

 Another theory has 1t that other men implicated with Mcintyre Tn the killing of Johnson, but who are out on bond, throug the fear that Sam might "squeal" and make a clean breast of the matter, organ ized a mob and destroyed him Tn the hope that all the evidence might be wiped out.
 It is reported that Mcintyre had made the threat after he had been locked up in the jail here that Ii he ever got out there was three white men in St. Francis county he intended to kill, and that he didn't care what they did with him after ward.
 The sction of the mob here this morning. while deplorable and re grettahle, should serve as warn ing 10 eyilioers and deSperadoes that the day cf the bandit and thug Is shoas done.

THE COTTON MARKET STTUA
 TON IN A NUTSHELL

Thsre Is 10 more important prob lem before the south today than that of getting fair prices for the soath's cotton crop. The prosperity of our merchants. bankers and pro fessional men, ss well as the pros perity of our farmers, depend upon the right solution of this problem and all should interest themselves in it.
 Of two propositions there seems to be no reason for doubt:
 ul Conditions are such that hold CTS of spot cotton should not sell at present prices
 (2) Conditions are such that the 1919 crop acreage should be sharp ly cut-if possible, as much as 39 1-3 per cent.
 In other words, CD the present crop being so short, must surely bring higher prices than now pre-. vail; t2) but planting the same acre age we planted last year might eas- fly produce crop so large as tc make disastrously low prices next fall.
 E This is the situation in a nutshell
 Last year the south produced only 165 pounds of lint cotton per acre In 1914 We made 209 pounds pel acre-or exactly one third more pel acre than last year-which mean: that if last years acre yield haC been as good as in 1914, our croI would have been 15,600. .000 bale instead of 11.700,000
 Or it means that if we plant las years acreage this year and the yielt is as good as in 1914, we will hay, 15,60O,000 bales to market instead of II, 100000 as was the case O the present crop.
 We must insist on fair prices fo our II 100000 bale crop-and W, are confident we shall get better pri ces than now ohtain-but we can afford to risk a 15,000,00 bal crop.
 To hold to the present crop ant reduce the next crop is manifestl, therefore the one way to reliev, the present cotton situation; but W, hope the present emergency vii set us to thinking about ways |, permanently increase the price O cotton.-Progressive Farmer.

REAp-AND REMEMBER

You say you do not like to argue or debate any of the big questions of the day because you consider it waste of time.
 Why not be honest and say that you do not wish to think hard enough to meet the arguments of others, or that you fear the ex- posture of your ignorance!
 Most of your reading is done in thoughtless way, and is it not true that you seldom read anything that you try to remember? |.
 How often do you dig into any subject for the purpose of gaining some valuable information?
 Harder and harder it grows for you to do any sensible, hard think ing.
 And granting this to be true, are you not slipping backward?
 What have you to depend on to get you to the high places if it is not your mind?
 Money may buy position you think, but it cannot keep it.
 And it is getting harder and harder for mere money or influence to hold the top of the ladder, be- cause to hold the top of the ladder and keep 1t, not to. get it, is most important.
 And so you go on growing mental ly weaker and farther from the goal of your youthful ambitions.
 It IS not too late if you start now to build a foundation of knowledge

CURING THE SICK FOWL

All diseased birds should be iso. lated.
 Colds and croup-Disinfect the drinking water as follows: To each gallon of water add one tablespoon. fui of sodium sulphite or as much potassium permanganate as will re. main on the surface of a dime.
 Chicken pox-Put a touch of io. dine on each sore and apply earbo. lated vaseline.
 Gapes-Fresh ground and vigor- ous cultivation will often remedy this trouble, which is caused by small gape worms which live in the soil and attach themselves to the inside of the throat.
 Bumblefoot.-When the feet are badly swollen, small cut should be made with a clean sharp knife. and the pus removed. Wash the wound cut with equal parts of hydrogen peroxide and water, grease with vasehne, bandage.
 Limberneck-A teaspoon fnl o+ castor oil given to the fowl will sometimes effect a cure.
 Scaly legS.-Apply vaseline con- tainlng two per cent of creoljne to the affected parts and after 24 hours soak in warm, soapy water Repeat treatment until cured.

SAM MeINTYRE WHO KILLED JOHN JOHNSON, TAKEN FROM JAIL AND HANGED-JAILER oyERPoWERED BY MOB.

Forrest City, April 23.-Sam Me Intyre, notorious bootlegger, who has been operating prior to his m carceration on the charge of hay. ing murdered John Johnson on Feb 4. when the latter was shot from ambush through the window of hiS home on the Graham farm, m the vicinity of Madison, was removed from the St. Francis county jail s' an early hour this morning and strung up to a telegraph pole on the Rock Island railroad in the eul just east of the city.
 McIntyre's home was at Madison, four miles east, where he was sc- counted among the citizens aS 5 desperate character. He sold vhls- key, it is said, in defiance of the la~ and was generally reputed bad character.
 His lynching this morning cane in the nature of complete surprise Walter Lacehield, the local jsiler, testified before the coroner's inquest that he was awakened about 2:So or o'clock this morning by man who called to him, Come down Walter; I've got prisoner When he looked out the window of his room in the second story of the jail Lacefield declares that he saw two men standing at the jail door and thought it was Constable Will Brown ..-l~ k~l H~o..,~A% S.r,aAaIx- s1 tka lookup, and without taking any pre- cautions, he procured the keys and came on down the stairway, but that no sooner had he opened the screen door than he was rushed and oyerpowered by masked men. In jiffy the keys had been snatch ed away and the lights cut of. He heard members of the mob unlock ing the door to the cell room and later heard someone say, "Get uI Sam and put on your pants" He did not hear Sam say anything, but soon the party leading Sam McIn. tyre left without saying word.
 Laceheld says that only five oI six men came into the jail. but that he thought there must have beer 20 or 30 in the mob from the size of the crowd on the outside.
 The dead body of Mcintyre was lowered from the pole this morning about o'clock by the coroner: jury. which rendered verdict Sam Mcintyre came to his deati by hanging to a telegraph pole al the hands of parties to this jury un known on the morning of April 2S 1919, at Forrest City, Ark" Man, theories as to who might be respon sibie for the iynching have been ad vanced. Nobody in Forrest City was sufficiently interested in th, fate of Mcintyre to even suspect that such desperate measures were on foot. but from one angle it i. surmised that the people southeast of the city or the Graham farm and in the vicinity of Madison where Mcintyre was known, were enrageC over the fact that the prisoner hac not been tried for the murder oi
