It is rumored that when local swain offered charming young lady his hand and heart she demurely re- piled that vivisection is the height of cruelty. and that she could not possl- bly, be guilty of cruelty to animals. r. s < Bully for the Toledo woman who has waited hundred years for an opportunity to vote. We hope she votes a hundred times before she kicks off.
 There are two things q man should never forget-his dignity and his pipe.
 Don't worry. over your loss of mem ory. It enables you to forget a mul- titude of sin.
 If you would succeed in life set your stakes high and climb to them. They will never come down to you.
 '
 A good way to keep your wife from believing the wicked stories about you is to tell them to her first.
 H.$ stsssts Many man has ruinHd his chances for public offices by insisting that he was fully competent to discharge the duties fully and without fear or favor. They don't want no such animal.
 %
 Periodically we are advised to hold on to our Liberty bonds. Most people do. They haven't quite reached the point where they want to give them awayand they are still pretty to look at. =
 We note of late that women are not quite so free in the distribution of kisses among themselves. Per haps they are saving them up for a fresh invasion of the field of man.
 k g
 It's no trouble for woman to keep a secret-if she lifts it from her hus- bands pocketbook while he is asleep.

 Want to get great stand-in with your wife? Then write letter to a friend telling what jewel of wife you have, and leave it in your coat pocket when you change you suit. Be of good cheer. A grouch is more expensive and less attractive,

I WERE AFRAID OF WOMEN

To the Editor of The Star:
 Dear Sir: Please allow me space in your paper that may state a few facts.
 have been misquoted in what J E. Taylor told me in regard to the Citizens ticket. Before the ticket was nominated or the party was or ganized, MT. Taylor and l were on the tssii train together and he said that we would have to do something to beat Judge Finger, and I asked "who could beat him ?' He said Judge Wear was the only man in the county that could beat him. and told him to let Wear run, and he said Wear could not beat Judge Finger in the primary. for there were too many women voted in the primary.
 He said he would have to come ont independent, and told MT. Tavlor that l could not vote that kind of a ticket, and have not changed my mind yet, for l think that the issue. If any. could have been fought out in the Democratic party just as well or better than it could outside.
 On another occasion | heard Joe Lewis telling other parties at Hat field that he did not have any hopes of beating the Jefferson Highway. He said i've will have to run an iniunc- tion against it and hold it off until af- ter the election"
 l see Joe finders said Wear didn't ask Ed Myers to run for office; that it was just joke.
 l have been wondering what the third party was. Now I know it is just joke, and we are going to treat it as a joke on the 2nd day of Novem- Der, 1920.
 Now we have men who are going to vote for Eugene " Debs for presi- dent. a man in prison for betraying his country in it's hour of need. These same men are lining up with the Citi- zen's ticket.
 l believe in majority rule--that is the fundamental principle of Demo- eracy-
 Every loyal 100 per cent Democrat will vote the County, State and No- tional Democratic ticket.

party of this state for the office of United State Senate, unhesitatingly says that with Amendment No. 13 in force that troubles we have had with special legislation will be eliminated.
 The State Democratic Platform urges it's adoption at the November election.
 Thousands of farmers and wage earners in Arkansas have signed pe- titions that Amendment No. 13 be made law.
 The Farmers State Union and the Arkansas State Federation of Labor have, in their convention, endorsed Amendment No. 13 without dissent ing vote.
 The leading newspapers of Arkan- sas gre supporting Amendment No I3 and. as far as we have been able to learn, the country weekly papers are 1 favoring it.

AS WE AWAIT THE RETURNS.

When the next number of The Star is printed it will, if all goes we'll, ear. ry to it's readers the results of tho election at which the people will chose a president, senators, congressman governors and state officers, county and township officers.
 In this election The Star has as ir the past, definitely supported men and the measures it has believed were best fitted to meet the needs of the people. In doing so it has met things that were not pleasant, but has sought al- ways to arrive at the heart of the truth and when it has found this has not failed to give it as it seemed to be. The Star has not appealed to prejudices, and always regrets such appeals from any source.
 At the masthead of this paper it gives the ticket that it believes should ,e elected. At least in most instances has borne in it's columns reasons or this belief. If the future proves his an error, The Star is ready to ac- knowledge its mistake
 
 The mere fact that it's judgment nay not be that of the sssai aierity is lot conclusive evidence that it is 'rong.
 But keep this in mind:
 What the majority of the voters de- ire, as expressed at the ballot box, etermines for the time being what hould be. That is true democracy. nd on that our government and our astitations are based. When that lajority has been ascertained, it is ght that the minority should abide sereby, keeping in mind always that the majority should De in the wrong, le same majority has the power to =..s:tfs' =s...str it's error.

Colonel McRae, soon to be govern or of Arkansas, is exactly with about 100 per cent of the other folks in be- lieving that personal property as we'll as real estate should be taxed to build roads and make other public improve ments. The great difference between him and some other folks is, however, that he knows it will take consGitu- tional amendment to make this possi- ble in Arkansas and that this sort of thing can and will be done by the Democratic party, and never will be done in Arkansas by Citizens ticket movement, or any like party.

details has not prevented him from
looking after those propositions
which affect the people as a whole.
When Montana needed cars to ship
stock and to ship grain, Carl Rid
dick was on the job to see that they
were secured from the railroad ad-
ministration. When the necessity
of irrigation development came up
Carl introduced a bill that provided
for appropriations for such work and
out of the ideas of himself and other
irrigation boosters in congress there
promises to come forth a bill with
a large appropriation for such work.
When our farmers felt the stress of
drouth conditions, Carl Immediately
set about to secure loans for them
through the federal machinery. Then
when drouth after drouth came and
they were not in a position to pay,
through a rider he attached to tho
agricultural appropriation bill there
was saved to the farmers of Montana
two million dollars.
Just how thin effects our individ-
ual farmers was shown to US the
other day. One of them was feeling
pretty gloomy" when be came into
the office because he had harvested
just a few bushels per acre, and he
had to pay the local and federal gov
eminent for money secured for the
purchase of seed. Later in the after
noon he came back smiles. He had
just learned that $500 of the money
he owed-his debt to the federal
government-as a result of the rider
Carl had stuck on the appropriation
bill would not have to be paid.
In these things Carl w. Riddick
has been our congressman. He has
been the personal servant of the
voters of the second congressional
district. He has given them the kind
of service that is particularly needed
in this district-one of the largest
in numbers and in size in the nation
and in addition he has achieved a
position of prominence and influence
in political and governmental life
that fits him better than ever for
future personal service at Wash
ington.
