SOLD OUT! WHAT?

Not the Cotton Weigher's Office, but
the Corner Grocery.
About three years ago was elected
County Cotton Weigher for Polk
county, moved from the farm where
| had spent the last ten years (also
the last 10 cents). Thought would
move to town, open little business
which would give me something to do
between cotton seasons. ! only weigh
ed one year. Then the cotton buyers
of Mena found out they could not
teach me to weigh cotton. They be-
gan to kick about short weights and
even said would not treat them with
any Courtesy" which / admit. / did
not treat them with much courtesy"
after they tried to run my, or rather
the peoples business.
The z nc SS.a!s:ce CO County Cettaa Weigh
er was created thru the Arkansas Leg
isIature the same as all other county
officers, for the protection of the pub
lie, and If am as bad man as the
buyers claim we have law to re-
move all officers that don't do their
duty, and | gave bond to the amount
of $500, signed by as good men as
Polk county can produce. If they were
fair to the people Of Polk county if
have not done my duty as weigher
they would prove it and have me re-
moved and put another man in my
place. @
Instead they refuse to buy your
cotton if you have me weigh it. They
must have their man weigh your cot
ton. Now ! don't know where they
get their authority for having their
man weigh your cotton. This county
cotton weigher's Office was given to
me by the people Of Polk county and
is still in my possession and is not for
sale or give away. My yards, scales
and | are at the same old place, ready
and waiting to weigh your cotton, and
believe this term of circuit court
which convenes this week will decide
the matter. l believe the farmers are
with me in this fight with their time
and money, to and thru the Supreme
court if necessary. Now if don't
suit the farmers as county weigher,
will resign before night. But / re-
fuse to resign just to suit the cotton
buyers of Mena. If it takes Mena off
the map until the people have what
they are fighting for, Justice to all"
and Special Privileges tasnone."
Now if the courts decide can not
xsrnT / -
to a little farm and raise cotton and
have the Polk county deputy cotton
weigher at Hatfield to weigh the cot
ton placed on the market for sale by
me.
Now. in conclusion: Credit where

Sometime after midnight Saturday
night the people Of the United States,
beginning with the Federal depart
ments and railroads. on down to the
hurablest owner Of an Ingersol or
alarm clock, are due to turn back
the hands of timeD just one hour. But,
parenthetically speaking, the watch
makers tell us we will save trouble
and expense by turning the time
pieces forward II hours instead Of
backward hour.
Be that is it may, Sunday morning,
October &c, legally brings to an end
the Daylight Saving" law and effort
ia the United States, and once more
the country will be run on the one
standard time the year around.
The Daylight Saving Law was or
iginated, if The Stars information is
correct. in England. The title con-
tains the tru explanation of its pur-
pose. After considerable agitation it
inns taken nm and adopted by the
Congress OF the United States, the
exigencies and needs Of the World
War being the moving force behind
the change. AT time Of scarcity It
was figured that it would save vast
quantities Of fuel used in creating
lights that could, by the new idea, be
replaced by sunlight in the earlier
hours Of the summer season, and, too,
1t would give the people more time for
gardening and other enterprises for
the production Of foods.
1t may have accomplished both
these ends--in fact probably did to
some degree. In any event the change
met with quite general approval in the
cities and industrial centers. in
these 1t very clearly did utilize each
day an early hour Of sunlight, and as
clearly gave longer period to the
business man and the day laborer for
other than his regular duties or for
recreation before nightfall.
But the country people, less ready.
perhaps, to accept changes in GUS
toms and ways Of living, We're slow
to accept the innovation. Doubtless
in many districts they never did make
the change insofar as changing their
time-pieces and the hours for church,
schools and public gatherings. And
when they came to town they found
themselves out of step with trains and
business. and resented it. And. all in
all, it did cause the farmers much in
convenience.
Be that as It may, it was the in
fiuence Of the farmers that caused the
death Of Daylight Saving in the Unit
ed States. The cities favored it. The
President favored it strongly The
first repeal bill was passed by Con-
gress, and vetoed by President Will
son. A second took the same course,
and then was passed over the head Of
the President.
And, early Sunday morning the rail-
roads and postofiices. and most every
body going by the time officially desig-
mated as Summer Time,' viii change
back TO Normal Time" and next
summer folks who go to work at Q
or 4 or s o'clock may sleep away an
other hour Of sunshine in the morn
ing and work to within an hour less
of sunshine in the afternoon, and the
farmer won't be troubled with con-
f,sion Of the new-fangled Daylight
Saving idea.
And. has it occurred to youths is
