THE MAN WITHOUT

The Peace Conference has decided to try William Hohen- zollern for his many and varied crimes. This special court that the Allies are about to create to try the worlds worst villain will be without precedent or eX- perience, yet it's work will be easy, only a formal approval of the verdict which mankind has already rendered in the case.
 But when the court takes it's cue from, and pays it's, dutiful respects to universal sentiment, and pronounces William Hohen- zollern guilty, directly or in- directly of nearly every con ceivable crime against God and man, what will it say shall be done with him? If he is guilty he must be sentenced. If he is guilty and not sentenced, there will be bitter laugh through out this old world.
 But we are sure that this court is not going to play high comedy, it is going to punish w. H. past the limit of all human endurance. The most cruel of us we believe will want to cry, hold .' Some one out side of the court says, "hang him. Yet he won't be hanged Robert Emmet was hanged. So have been a thousand other patriots, great and glorious. Let him rot in the Tower of London cries another. But when we come to think of it the noblest spirits that ever lived routed in the Tower of London. Don't disgrace the Tower of London with this Potsdam filth. And neither will exile do for him, nor death in submarine, nor any other death that any human be- ing has suffered. Exile has so often been the fate of absolute genius. Think of Napoleon, of Victor Hugo and his little band iof celestials straining their eyes day after day for only glimpse of the shores of France. No, violent death, exile, imprison- ment, starvation and more have come to many of the gentlest spirits of earth. Let William Hohenzollern suffer uniquely and alone and as Edward Ever iett Hale has hinted at in his novel: Man Without a Coun- try.
 Let William Hohenzollern go

BLACKLEG IN CATTLE
 OF COUNTY.

MT. George Hall of Line Ark, lost three fine calves with blackleg last week. AS soon as he found that it was blackleg he immediately had ordered filtrate to vaccinate his herd Co.,. Agent, Pace and Mr. Sand ford Smith went to Mir. Halls Thursday and helped him to vaccinate 25 calves. MT. Hall purchased a set of vaccinating instruments for either vaccinat- ing cows or hogs, and is now prepared to do his own work.
 Three sets of vaccinating in struments were placed with far mers by MT. Pace last week. MT. Willie Miles and William Gill bought a set together and after vaccinating more than 100 of their own hogs they began vaccinating for the neighbor- hood and since that time they have vaccinated more than 275 hogs. Mir. o. D. Rhodes and C.. E. Drinkuth south of Wilmar also bought instruments and are doing some vaccinating in their neighborhood.
 This is good work and every community should have someone to do their own vaccinating. 1t is impossible for the county agent to vaccinate all the hogs and he is anxious to give dem onstrations in every community and teach the farmers how to do this work. Call on him.

MISSIONARY MEETING.

The Missionary Society of the Methodist Church for May, was held in the church parlors. Mrs. Warner c. Cruce led the devotional and social part of the program by reading Luke 10, showing that prayer gives access to human hearts, brings victory in hours of crisis, releases spiritual energies and thrusts forth workers into the Lords vineyard.
 The literary program covered our work in Brazil and Cuba showing how great the need of centenary work in those coun- tries.
 We feel that our Monticello nians will be justly proud of Miss Mildred Cruce, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Marvin Cruce, who has offered her service, from our church, to go to some for eign field where the harvest is ripe, to serve her Lord in her sweet quiet way.

|. B. GILLHAM.

Rev. D. B. Gillham died at his home in the southwestern part of this city Monday after noon. Although his health had been bad for a number of years and he had been confined to bed for several months, death came rather suddenly.
 Rev. Dave Gillham was born ed in Shelby county, Tenn. on March 11th, 1S47. He moved with his parents to Drew county when a boy 10 years of age and was citizen here until the day of his death.
 During the recent conflict be- tween the states, though but a lad of b, he heard the call to arms and went forth defend his state in her hour of bitterest trial. He was discharged from the Confederate Army at Mar shall, Texas on May 20th, 1865. He turned his face from the bloody battle field to become a soldier of the cross. He was ordained a minister in the Cumberland Church in 1891. For two years the young minis ter preached along the Cotton Belt Rail Road from Pine Bluff to Bearden for which he receiv- ed little, if any money, for his labor. In his writings of that period he states that preacher in that section at that time who received $200 year was flying. In 1893 he served Tillar, Flor ence, New Hope and Prospect. It was in this year that the Cumberland Church united with the Presbyterian Church U. s. A. From that date Rev. Gillham became one of the foremost ministers of that denomination in this section. He was closly associated in this work with the late Rev. B. A. Ingram, known to all old settlers as one of the great preachers of Drew county. Many very successful religious campaigns were held through out the country by these two men and much good done by them.
 Rev Gillham was married to Miss Mary Duncan of Montongo on October 31st, 1871. To them were born twelve children of whom seven are living and were present at the interment: R. F.. Gillham of Dermott, P. B. Gill; ham of Arkansas, Ingram of Grayson, La. and Lyle who is q student at Clarksville., Mrs. C.. r. Pittman of this city, Mrs. J. D. Aycock of Florence, and Mrs. Copeland Hughes of Rose Hill.
 Funeral services were con ducted at the Mt. Tabor Church Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, Rev Richmond Twitty and Judge k. c. Knox, Sr, an old friend of the deceased officiat- ing.
 The bereaved relatives will have the sincere sympathy of their host of friends in their deep loss.

The new managers of the Southeastern Ark. Fair Associa- tion seem to have started out with a determination to succeed by big odds. The Fair to be held at Monticello this fall will be something a little more than extra. We learn that $1,500 will be paid out in premiums on the speed ring, besides large pre- miums in every other depart ment. The large premiums offer ed for fast stock will be an in teresting feature, and will bring blooded horses from far and near. And besides, to see the races, will bring hundreds of people. This is a fast age, and while men, women and children like to look at big corn, pump kins and pototoes, they demand fast horses to fill the bill.

Uncle Harry Talks Abont Nationwide Prohibition

"les there is" answered Uncle
Harry. I'm a number OF the States
where the Legislatures have approved
the Prohibition Amendment there are
what are called referendum laws
which provide that the question Of
approving any amendment 20 the
tnied Staf'S Constitution must be 'rn-
fcrred TO the people to be voted upon.
And IL is said that the distillers and
brewers, that is. the manufacturers OF
intoxicating liquors, will ask the Su-
preme Court 10 declare the new Pro-
hibitlon amendment unconstitutional
because IL was approved by certain
State Legislatures In States where the
laws say that II should be approved
by a vote OF the people Such legal
action may delay Prohibition a short
time, but people who are ectve In the
Prohibition movement say that any
such delays will be short lived, because
they are certain from canvasses they
have made and from the way the pco-
pie have voted In States where the Pro-
hibltion question has been approved
by the votes Of a majority OF the peo-
pie, that the majority Of the people of
all the States have made up thoir miud
that drinking intoxicating liquors Is
