this vote Now if it were true that negro disfranchisement caused the smaller southern vote then would the scheme of Tinkham be a clear viola ton of the federal constitution, be- cause it would give official sanction to the validity of his asserted disfran- chisement. But the election laws of the southern states do not disqualify the negro any more than the educa- tional qualifications in some of the chise part of their population, and it would be manifestly unfair to pen alize the voters of the south because any section of it's population neglects or refuses to vote.
 But the truth of the matter is that the comparatively small vote G the south in the congressional elections of 1918 was caused not by the negro dis franchisement, but by the lack of op- position to the Democratic congress sional candidates. Few people will take the trouble to vote when there is but one candidate to be voted for. In this matter, then, the real voting strength of the south should be judged by the primaries where there was op- position and not by the general cleo tion where there was none. IT the Tinkham brand of sophistry be follow ed by Congress then not only the ne- groes, but also very large section of the white population would be dis franchised.
 But we cannot imagine this as be- ing in the least distasteful to Lodge, Tinkham, ct al. It would indeed be a very effective means of bending if not breaking the solid south. It would make Republican control of Congress much easier and, after all, that is the main object.-Commercial Appeal.

BREAKING THE SOLID SOUTH

The dastardly crimes committed against the postrate and bleeding south during the days following the Civil War made this section of the country democratic in self-defense. It was a question of life and death and the south won. Since then it has not been a matter only of gratitude to democracy that has kept alive the faith here. The fight that the Demo- cratic party has made for equal op- portunity and against special privi- lege has appealed to the sense of jus tice of the pure-blooded Americans of the southland. Southerners have been loyal to the principles of Jefferson and Jackson and Wilson because they believed in them and because they cOnformed to our ideas of real rule "of the people, by the people, and for the people,"
 We would have been unfaithful to our convictions of right and justice had we done otherwise. We know that we have paid the price of parti- san hatred in some other sections of the country for our loyalty to our conscience, but we could not and would not be otherwise than true to our instincts. What political enemies have chosen to term the solid south has been the hobgoblin of smallmind- ed and bigoted politicians ever since this section overthrow the infamous carpetbag regime These same polit- ical bigots have devised various and sundry means, only few of which wern of tbo neaceful and nerslaSive kind, to break the south's loyalty to the Democratic party Senator Lodge has been an active mover in measures to rob the south by force of it's free dom of political conscience, and had the remainder of the country support ed Lodges intolerance federal bayo- nets would have controlled our voting booths and the carpetbag era would have been revived But the good sense and fairness of the nation over-.

 The people of Arkansas are to be given another opportunity to become acquainted with this emblem and the great cause for which it stands in the annual sale of Christmas Seals to be put on during the month of December.
 The double-barred cross was first adopted as the international emblem of the fight against tuberculosis at a conference in Paris in 19D8,, 1t was suggested by Dr. G. Sersiron and is adapted from the Croix de Lorraine, which in turn dates back to the orig inal Greek two-arm cross In 1906 the cross was adopted by the Ma official emblem. Later it was stand ardized as to proportions
 It has been used by all of the anti tuberculosis agencies throughout the country as their official trademark. Some questionable agencies and con cerns have been using the emblem and the National Tuberculosis Association has therefore protected it by copy right. so that hereafter it will mean the organized movement against tuber- culosis and only that
 The double-barred cross stands for the control and elimination of tuber- culsis," says Dr. Charles J. Hatfield, the Managing Director of the Ma tional Tuberculosis Association. In this sign, with organized community effort, tuberculosis will become prac- tically unknown, instead of one of the most dreadful disease scourges of the ages as it is today

ruled Lodges provincialism and big otry.
 Efforts to punish the south for it's political faith, however, neither began with nor ended with Senator Lodge. Various other small-calibre politicians have suggested methods of punish ment and the chief of these has been the cutting down of southern repre- sentation in Congress. The idea of this, of course, is that if Democracy in the south cannot be broken it can at least be crippled. Now that the Republicans are assured of at least two years control of the presidency and both branches of Congress the talk of coercing Dixie is being revived and the instigator comes also from Massachusetts in the person of Rep resentative Tinkham.
 To avoid increasing the House mem bership as the result of the new cen sus, Tinkham would retain the pres ent basis of representation by popu- lation, would give the northern and western states any increase in repre- sentatives that their greater popula- ton demanded and would take away from the south some of it's represen- tatives in order that the House mem bership would not be increased. In other words, he would give the north and the east and the west the benefit of their growth, but he would govern the south on its voting and not on it's actual population. The sophistry of his argument is more real than ap- parent when we consider the figures he gives as basis for his proposed plan.
 He goes back to the congressional elections of 1918, an eff year, when there was no presidential ticket to bring out big vote, and discovers a discrepancy between the total votes in southern congressional districts and those in other districts of the country. He then jumps at the conclusion that negro disfranchisement is responsible for the smaller southern vote and con- tends that the southern representation should be reapportioned according to

Patrons of the Mountain Springs school in Pope county in a communi- cation to the Russellville Courier Bem0crat, commenting the work of Miss Shannon, who is in charge of the health campaign in that county, gave the following as result of her work among the children:

 state is $160,000. With this amount, it will be possible for the Association to put on an augmented campaign in many of the counties that are already organized and to begin the work in other counties that have not yet been touched.
 John R. Frazer, Grand Master Workman of the A. o. U. W. of Ar kansas. has accepted the position of state campaign director and he and Miss Earle Chambers executive sec retary. are rapidly perfecting county organizations, with active chairmen in charge of each. Intensive campaigns are to be put on in at least fifty of the counties and mail sales will be conducted in the others.
 The Arkansas Public Health Asso- citation is devoting it's energy and re- sources to crusade against tuber. ssiosis. While 1t Is conducting m educational campaign for general health and sanitation, its chief oA- 3sctire is the. eradication of tuber- cxiar conditions and the treatment and care of those who have already contracted the disease.
 The fact that 5000 people die an- nnally h Arkansas from tuberculosis and that it's rayages represent an eco homie loss of $14,000,00 a year Is proof that any means whereby this tremendous loss may be overcome should have the. earnest support of the people of Arkansas.

 The infant child of MT. and Mrs. Ralph Urton was severely burned Monday when it fell against the heat ing stove.
 The heavy rains of the past few days put stop to cotton picking. There is much good quality cotton still on the stalk that should be picked. Some of the planters do not seem to care whether it is saved or not on account of the low price. This is very poor way to look at the sit uation after having worked hard all summer and fall to raise the crop. It should be picked and put in tho dry and if the planter cannot wait for higher price he can sell it and get something out of his years work Half loaf is better than no bread' and that is the view that should bo taken of the situation at this time.

This Medicine Recommended by a Doctor

When a doctor uses a medicine him
self besides prescribing II 10 his patients,
he must know that II has merit.
This IN what DR.. j. II. Wagner, a prom
inent physician OF Skate, kentucky, has
20 say about DR.. Hartman's well-known
remedy, PE-RU-NA: ~ have used Pr
RU-NA myself for catarrh and have
given II to others for catarrh, bioating
after eating and other ailments. II has
proved n success IN all cases with old
and young men and women. All speak
we'll OF PE-RU-NA. II Is the best OF all
t~onics."
DR.. Wagner, out OF the ~fuliness Of his
own personal experience, for the good Of
all sick and suffering, recommends a
medicine which he knows to be good.
You may be sure n doctor would not en-
danger his professional reputation by
endorsing PE-RU-NA unless satisfied be-
yond a doubt OF it's value.
Whether you trouble DO n cough or a
cold, or a more subtle catarrhal election
of the stomach, bowels or other organs,
give PE-RU-NA n trial. The immediate

TucsoN,s REPORT

Tucson, Ariz., April 9.-The first ef-
fou TO incorporate the interest Of the
newcomers who are crowding into ev-
cry community of the state, closed
yesterday with success. when the To-
cal Chamber Of Commerce ended its
drive for 500 new members, gathering
in considerable over the number
sought, and in the acquisition to the
membership, securing many who had
been in this part of the country a
comparatively short time. OF course.
the large percentage were men who
have been in or around Tucson for q
number of years. who have been
aroused to the remarkable growth of
the city within the last two years and
were willing to align with a progress
siye plan for civic organization. The
feature of the drive, however, was the
acquisition of the new people in the
district, tying their interest to the
community they had entered
The outstanding significance OF the
campaign was that if each community
of the state follows the lead of Tue
