The March
of EUentS
n ENATOR ASHURST declares

his home without warrant. OF
course, the right thing to do is to
bring suit against the officer. Still
the Senator would be well within his
legal rights if he protected his home
by force.
The Constitution expressly forbids
search without a warrant. No Fed
eral law, no State law, no police Gus
tom can give anybody the right to
enter and search without warrant.
This paper is an advocate of en-
forcing every law, the prohibition
laws included. But we advocate
only lawful enforcement. The
Eighteenth Amendment should not
be enforced by violating the Fourth
Amendment.
There is no difficulty in obtain
ing warrant when search is justi-
fable. So let the officer who will
not take the trouble to go about
the job in a lawful way be punish
able if he goes about it in an unlaw-
full way.
The foreign exchange shows clear
ly one cause of business stagnation.
Our money is too dear. That's only
another way of saying that it is too
scarce. We need more money in
circulation. We not only debated
too rapidly, but too much.
The old saws are often stupid.
"Cheap money drives good money
into hiding" is one of them. 1t is
not true. Bad money drives good
money into hiding. But money may
be cheap and good, too. And what
gain is there in having money SO
much dearer than foreign moneys
that foreign customers cannot afford
to buy it with goods or with their
money and credit on the worlds ex-
change'
In their zeal to make our money
better the Federal Reserve and the
bankers have made business bad.
They not only Debated the currency,
but also Debated the tires on which
trade travelled.
Here we are with banks full of
good money and dull trade, idle
factories and profiteers' farms-all
on account of money being too
scarce and too dear.
1t is reported that an understand
ing has been reached which will re-
suit in the formal recognition of
Mexico's present government and
treaty of amity and intercourse
which will establish trade and good
relations between the two republics.
Both countries would greatly
benefit by reciprocal goodwill and
fair treatment and protection of
persons and properties, but Mexico's
gain would be much the greater.
If necessary, the United States
could do without trade or other re-
lations with Mexico, though to do
so, except under stringent necessity,
would be foolish; but Mexico is not
equally Independent financially or
economically. 1t requires the aid of
Northern capital, enterprise and
technical experience in the develop
ment Of many of its latent resources.
We think President Obregon fully
recognizes this fact and that he will
steer his course accordingly.
What we most need in our country
is the initiative, referendum and re-
call. Our legislative system is too
irresponsible and too irresponsible
to the will Of the people. And our
judicial system is libel on justice
and an affront to common sense, as
well as a menace to individual lib
erties-particularly to the precious

 Hon. J. A. ROuntree, Director General,

 Will you kindly express to the mem bers of the Chamber of Commerce of Greensboro, North Carolina, and to the citizenship of that Convention my sincere regrets that a very critical illness of five months duraton pre- vented me from attending the meeting of our Association there last April. This is the first opportunity l have had other than by telegram, to ex- press my regrets to the progressive citizenship of Greensboro, because my illness was so critical, and the period of convalescence necessarily long.
 I am delighted 10 tell you, and
 
 through you, other friends in the good roads movement, that l feel like my old self again, and, beginning next Monday, at Canton, Missouri, will un- dertake to fill a six weeks engage ment through Missouri and Iowa, de- livering forty-three addresses during the tour on the theme, "Amrica's World Leadership" On my tour, I shall be glad to invite the public to attend the tenth annual convention of the United States Good Roads Asso- citation at Phoenix, Arizona, April A to 20. 1922 Tn my lectures, I shall also refer to the all absorbing question of good roads, which is so important to the nation
 Your good letter was received this morning, and I was delighted to hear from you again. You have done wonderful work in behalf of good roads in the South, and I believe the next few years will emphasize the value of good roads movement more than ever before.
 With kindest personal regards, am your friend,

PRICES CUT
 IN GINNING
Ginner's Association Reduces Ginning Charges From 40 to 9 Cents Per 100 Pounds, and Bagging and Ties From $2.25 to $1.50 Per Bale.

Little Rock, August 12.-Material reductions in cotton ginning charges were agreed to by committees repres- enting the Arkansas Farmers Union and the Arkansas Ginners' Association at conference held at the Gleason Hotel last Wednesday afternoon, and the agreement was ratifield by the ginners at their meeting Thursday morning.
 Under the agreement, ginning charge will be reduced from 40 to 20 cents per 100 pounds, and bagging and ties per bale will be cut from $2.25 to S1.5 The prces will be standard throughout the state, except where in- dividual contracts requiring unusual specifica tons are made. The prices, under the agreemnt, will remain in force during 1921.
 The report of the ginners' commit- tee recommending that the new prices be accepted, was unanimously adopted by the ginners' association. The re- port of the committee said:
 I've. your committee, appointed to meet with a committee from the Farm- ers' Union of Arkansas and to report the price suggested for ginning cotton and price to be charged for bagsing and ties for the season 19211922:
 Beg to report that at the confer ence with said committee from the Farmers Union it was unanimously agreed upon that it would be fair and just to the ginners and to the farmers that a charge would be made of 25 cents per 100 pounds, seed cotton for ginnng, based on short staple cotton; that on long staple of cotton in excess of 1 1-16 the price should be 30 cents per 100 pounds for ginning seed cot ton.

On Bankhead Highway near the Little Missouri River About Eight Miles North of Prescott, Tuesday Eve ming About 80.
BY THREE MEN
Sheriffs Posse Arrested two Charged With the Crime and Placed Them in Jail Last Night.

Within the last fortnight there has been two robberies at this spot. This is lonely looking place about eight or nine miles north of Prescott on the Bankhead route. near what is known here as Grassy Lake. The first occurred about two weeks ago when MT. John Burrow of this city wa sheld up after dark by two men and relieved of four or five dollars. Two young negroes were arrested charged with this offense but was released because of the fact that Mir. Burrow could not swear positively that they were the ones that held him up.
 This last daring hold up was pulled off in broad day light by three white ben blacked up like negroes. The two men that were robbed, were travelling men from Louisiana. They were in ear and the bandits stepped from the brush and covered them with guns and proceeded to take about $320.00 in cash and a watch and a lot of very valuable papers. They overlooked. however. a diamond ring and a small gold coin that was in the watch pocket from whence they took the watch.
 When the information reached Pres colt, Sheriff Steele organized posse and went to the scene of the hold-up. The men robbed gave a splendid de scription of the parties and on this description J. C. Graham and Erwin Stockton were arrested and placed in jail, the officers say that they know who the third man is, and other ar rests are expected within a short time
 The parties arrested and charged with this crime live near the scene of the bold hold-up. Both men arrest ed stoutly deny their guilt.

CALL FOR MORE CHICKENS
Poultry Supply Seemingly Has Not
Kept Pace With Human Popuia-
tion in This Country.

City folks who move to the country
and most of them want to, but won't
admit it-always want to keep chick
ems. 1t seems easy, it promises to be
profitable, and anyhow there is some
thing fascinating in the idea to wOm-
en- as to men.
Under the circumstances, then. the
United States chicken census of last
year, report of which is just available,
possesses sentiment as well as busi-
ness interest.
There were 9,537,3 1885 chickens on
farms in the United States Oh January
1, 1920, as against 2S0,340.957 chick
ems three months old or more April. 10,

slaughtered and marketed each year
between January l and April 10, com

growth of fowl population does not
keep pace with that of human beings.

Manhood.
For days thereafter the people of
New Salem were sorely troubled. Abe
Lincoln, the ready helper in time of
need, the wise counselor, the friend Of
all-"old and young, dogs and horses"
as Samson was wont to say-the pride
and hope of the little cabin village,
was breaking down under his grief.
He seemed to care no more for work
or study or friendship. He wandered
out in the woods and upon the prairies
alone. Many feared that he would
lose his reason.
There was wise and merry-hearted
man who lived a mile or so from the
village. His name was BOwlin Green.
Those days when one of middle age
had established himself in the affec-
tiOns of community, its members had
a way of adopting him. SO Mr.. Green
had been adopted into many families
from Beardstown to Springfield. He
was everybody's "Uncle Bowlin." He
had a most unusual circumference and

cheeks and curling locks and kindly
dark eyes and large head were details
Of Importance. Under all were a heart
with the love of men, a mind of un-
usual understanding and a hand
skilled in all the arts of the Kentucky
pioneer. He could grill a venison
steak and roast grouse and brOil
chicken in way which had filled the
countryside with fond recOllections of
his hospitality; he could kindle a fire
with bow and string, a pine stick
and some shavings; he could make
anything from a splint broom to a
rocking horse with his jack-knife. Abe
Lincoln was one Of the many men who
knew and loved him.
On warm, bright afternoon early
in September. Bowlin Green was going
around the pasture TO put his fence in
repair, when he came upon young Mr..
Lincoln. The latter sat in the shade
of a tree on the hillside. He looked

Illinois was growing. In June scores
of prairie schooners, loaded with old
and young, ratified over the plains
from the East. There were many
Yankees from Ohio, New York and
New England in this long caravan.
There were almost as many Irish, who
had set out for this land OF golden
promise as soon as they had been
able to save money for team and
wagon, after reaching the new world.
There were some Germans and Scan
dinavians in the dust clouds Of the
National road. Steamers on the Illi-
nOiS river scattered their living freight
along it's shores. These were largely
from Kentucky, southern Ohio, Penn
Rylvania, Maryland and Virginia. The
call of the rich and kindly lands had
travelled far and streams Of life were
making toward them, TO flow with in
creasing speed and volume for many
years.
People in SangamoI1 county had be-
gun to learn of the thriving village
of Chicago in the north. Abe said
that Illinois would be the Empire
state of the West; that "a new era
of rapid development and great pros
perity was near. Land was in great
demand and there were many trans
fers of title. Abe had more surveying
to do than he was able to accomplish
that summer. Harry was with him
for some weeks. He could earn two
dollars "a day with Abe, whereas Sam
son was able to hire Ihelper for half
that sum. Harry made a ,cOnfidant of
his friend, and when they were work
ing at the northern end of the county
they borrowed pair of horses and
rode up to Kelso's house and spent
a Sunday there.
