The citizens of Arkinda vicinity held a mass meeting in the school auditor ium Monday night to see how many was in favor of cattle dipping, and how many were against it. So the result showed that all present were to a great extent opposed to dipping, while some obstinately refused to dip at all. They say they had rather pay helpless animals. It is predicted that we wont have to dip the whole season through-the reason being withheld in the minds of those concerned. One man said he lost ten bales of '.rtton last year by having to dip his cattle. Another said he had his va: nearly done, and when he got it dove ,l.cre V; tllG be about 100 acrss in :t It is anticipated there will be more or less trouble over the dipping of cattle this season. There are some that have been heretofore highly in favor of the dipping, but now they are driv- ing their cattle into Oklahoma for re- fuge, and the same rule applies to some concerning the hog law. We would like, if possible, to ascertain the reason those men should previous ly want such laws. One man that has been mighty in favor of these menac- ing laws has asked that his name be suppressed in all conversations con- cerning same.
