The Egg Of Democracy

This thing called Democracy seems to be in such demand that the public utilities are asking for it in the diff ferent communities throughout the country. And since Democracy is dis pensed largely through the various forms of local, State and Federal gov ,1nment,is has been suggested by no less an institution than the Board of Public Utility Commissioners of the State of New Jersey, from which State comes the President of the Uni ted States, that these problems should not "be juggled with to gain the ap- plause of those who give no heed to their true significance and import ance, and fail to appreciate the ulti- mate effect of ill considered action"
 The New Jersey Commission says that "there are those who urge in et- feet that the effortts of a public util- ity commission should be directed, not to dealing fairly with the people and the utilities who serve them and to seeing that both are protected in their just rights, but to ascertaining what those who claim to speak for the public demand, and allow it with out question or consideration of the effect upon the utility" Abraham Lincoln is quoted with reference to the judges of the Courts. Lincoln said; "It is a duty from which they may not shrink to decide cases prop erly brought before them, and it is no fault of theirs if others seek to turn their decisions to political purposes" !" Utilities want this rule applied to their affairs.
 Lowell in one of his essays, referred to the "egg of democracy" Since a world-full of this kind of fruit is being matched in the nests, the public utili ties evidently believe that they should have some of this Democracy-sinee it is being made universal commod- ity.

Little Rock, Feb. 16-The influenza epidemic has not cut down the amount of business written by the Arkansas Grand Lodge of the A. Q. U. w., in fact, 1t seems to have increased it by ralling 5he attention of the people generally to the importance of pro- viding insurance for tie bread-winae- s of the household. New business is 'oming to the desk of Grand Recorder '. L. Cross at the rate of $60,0O0 9 day, on an average. This represents the work of local deputies assisting the district managers in what prom ises to be the greatest membership campaign in the history of an order that has done tremendous things dur ing the last four years. The Grand Lodge office is preparing for the big rest business in it's history.
 District Manager A. G. Wolfe last week brought in charter list for Graysonia lodge No. 89, in Clark
 ounty. with twenty-two charter nem- bers. The Order is particularly strong in Clark county.
 There is q great revival of interest at Helena, where District Manager A. B. Smith is ably assisted by Phil Miller, the local deputy, who is also Grand Guide. An open meeting is to be held there March 5.
 Grand Master Workman John R. Frazer will assist in the initiation of a large class at Texarkana Tuesday night. The interest there is very great.
 J. L. Jacobs of Van Buren, one of the old time workers of the A. O. U. ". is instituting a new lodge, No. 94, at Plainview, in Yell county.
 District Manager Smith will insti- tute a new lodge at Redfeld Jeffcr- son county, No 93, and District \, n- ageI Monk will put in lodge at Bea- den, No. 104.
 J. H. Jeffries reports good business at Roe, J. H. Clark is at Blytheville and Mrs. Woodland at Cla~ksville There is spirited contest on in Litt'e Rock between West End Lodge with HOO members and Capitol with a membership of 900.

WHAT KIND OF OILS
DO YOU USE?

Do you choose your iubrieating oils by the price you have to pay-do you ask for them by name, or do you ask for "just oil" You can combine economy with qual- ity, if you insist on GAY OILS-they cost no more, often less, than other oils, and are guaranteed to give per feet satisfaction.

and concluded that / would go up TO
have another visit with him. as |

more chances to see him alive. Soon
after my arrival I learned that p. ID.

League of Nations, where peace is
forced on us by nature. But ! said

did on Sunday. He was so quiet l
could not tell whether he knew l was
there or not. l wonder if he did?
Who can say? There are so many

We can't understand, and it seems to
me that We are foolish to say they

jOyed his long, witty letters in rhyme
and still cherish them among my
keepsakes. In those early days he
was "a Democrat but is now Judge A.
l.. Smith of Marietta.
1t seems queer that l should now
remember the one verse from Judge
Smiths letter that seems to represent
the Colonel and his battle with the
tin. To save my life | could not dig
up another verse without digging up
the letter again, but this one is
enough:
Il started up as the clock struck one,
And frantically cried. 4 must go!'
l made a grab for my overcoat.
And also seized my chapeau"
The Colonel could not have per-
formed that act better if he had re-
hearsed it month, and yet it came
on so suddenly that 1t seemed like
another case of mental telepathy
which caused him to follow direc-

fun We had on that occasion. 1t was
one of the gayest stunts ever pulled
off in old Olympia. The young folks
in the new Olympia spend the most
of their time, / reckon, in the movies,
and think they are enjoying life. But
this tin shower. 1t deveoped into a
tin thunder storm before it subsidized.
We could see streaks of lightning
darting from the eyes of one of the
guests as he shot out the door.
OF course the decorations were of
tin. A most elaborate portiere of tin
cups, plates, spoons, coffee pots and
other articles was hanging in the
wide entrance to the parlor. A little
shake of the portiere would make a
commotion that sounded like a cha
rivari. Everybody felt gay. Mirth
was catching. But someone made
the mistake of asking Charlie Moore
to sing Hey, Rube!" There is but
one verse to the song. but the hun
dreds of lines to the one verse takes
long time to sing it. The piano
tinkled and Hey RUDE started GU: on
the long round up.
AS il continued, some smiled, but
ali kept still until about the Tooth
line was reached, and then the
Colonel could stand it no longer His
feelings overcame him. He sprang
to his feet, claLtered across the par
lor floor and bolted through the tin
rcrticre on his way to the hall for his
oVercoat and derby. AS he collided
with the hanging tins, he strucK out
boldly with both arms with such
vigor that the din of the tin COM
pletely shut out the sound of the
tinkling of the piano and the singing
of Hey RUDE. and it seemed to the
listening crowd that the Colonel and
his regiment had rushed upon the
enemy unaware and engaged them in
mortal combat. But as the tinkling
of the tin died away it was discovered
that Hey RUDE had paid no attention
! TO the sounds of battle and kept right
On as though nothing had happened
AS the Colonel went out into the
night Hey RUDE was just finishing
with these words:
"Well never 60

MENTAL TELEPATHY.

At this late date, as I think of the
Rube. 1t brings to my mind letter
received many years before that,
from my old friend A. l.. Smith of
Marietta, Ohio. Some of the old
timers of Olympia will remember the
young lawyer who came to Olympia
with Doc Riley in the early eighties.
He did not stay long but made friends
with all who met him during his
short residence there.
He and were bosom friends"

THE LOST CLUTCH.
Since / came to Elma l have met
several people, some of them now
grandparents. who told me that 1
issued their marriage license away
back in the eighties, but told them
they needn't blame me now for their
early mistakes, gol ding it, I've got

Then l got to thinking about some
of the licenses issued in the old
days when l was county auditor, and
wishing l had time to write a book
