WHAT I STAND FOR
By J. A. Bauer

1 stand for the whole people ruling; not just a few telling the rest what to do. 1 do not stand for any stock law until the peo- pie have a vote on same.If this matter should come up an cleo ton will be held if I should be elected mayor. l stand for bet ter street to the fruit loading shed. I stand for the upper dump having some work done on it soon, so the farmers can geT Ov- CT it with their berries, and for replacing the bridge which is washed out on the road up by Dr. Huntley's place.
 r | stand for part of the tax money being spent in grading some of the main travelled streets in north Judsonia, in West Judsonia and in fact all over the town when the proper time arrives next summer.
 I stand for a clean town. We have a good town now, but we can improve on same. If I am elected I will work in coniunc- tion with the council for the bet torment of the town in every way, and shall oppose any show of any kind coming to town that is not good enough for our lad ies and children to see. I have not asked a man to vote for me and do not expect to.
 MT, White and I are good friends and we will be so after the election. If you think MT. White is the best man for the
  place vote for him, but for good ness sake don't let any one pull your vote by giving you a dose of hot air.
 Some say l haven't the time to be mayor but when they tried to place my name on their first ticket for alderman, they seem ed to think 1 had time for that.
 My leisure time is from June 1st to August 18th. If elected I agree not to ever charge one penny for any work I do for the town, nor at any time to work my own teams on the streets for

received the following letter from Mrs. E. s. Pinkett of Rich mond, Ind, The letter is self ex- planatory and I share with the many friends of the deceased in the consolation given:
 Dear Bro. Wick:
 have just received a clipping from a Judsonia paper which tells of the passing of Thomas j.. Beavers. My father, Jesse Louis Smith, was a Baptist minister. When Thomas Beavers was a. bout eight years of age, he lost his mother and father brought him and an infant brother to live in our home. They grew to man. hood here as sons of the family. Tommy was good, kind, older brother, an honest, upright cit izen after he had grown up. In his youth he professed faith in Christ and united with Loves Creek Missionary Baptist Church. His friends in North Carolina are numbered by his ac- quaintances. l trust you will not think it amiss for me to write this. Not many of the people there knew anything of his ear- ly life. I have not known children to show more love for their own parents especially was this so in regard to mother.
 Very respectfully yours,
 Mrs. $. E. Pickett.

If you toot your little to ter,
 And then lay away your horn, Within week there's not a soul
 Will know that you were born. The man who tries to advertise
 By short and sudden jerks Is theman who's always kicking
 Because it never works. The fellow who is on the job,
 A-bumpin' every day, And keeps forever at it.
 He's the one who makes it pay.

Did you ever stop to think that the real 100 per cent American has never had a representative society to look after his interests while every class of hyphenated Americans there is has at least one such organization whose sole aim is to advance any move for their advancement, even the negro has such organizations and is able to bring much influ- ence to bear on things that af- feet his race. It is time that the real article woke up to the fact that if he does not safeguard his own rights no one else will do so and they will soon be a thing of the past, an idle dream or remembrance.

Judge White Answers Critics
To the Citizens ana Taxpayers
 of White County:


 There has been some criticism come to me recently about buy ing road machinery and steel bridges. These criticisms come in the way of wondering if the county would ever be able to pay for road equipment and steel bridges that have been purchas- cd?" 1 beg to advise that during the years of 1920 and 1921 the County bought 3S steel bridges for which it paid cash as they were unloaded. These 38 bridges were built by day labor at say ing of $4O,0O0 to the taxpayers from the lowest bid received un- der the contract system. have contracted for steel for 9 bridges for 1922, IA of same have been delivered, unloaded and paid for in cash. The other eight are to be delivered in June and July and will be paid for in cash as they are unloaded and checked up.
 As 10 the road equipment will say that I have bought seven tractor engines ranging from 16 to 60 horsepower; road graders ranging fom 8 to 12 foot blades suitable for each tractor. Part of th's machinery was paid for as it was unloaded, and there is now in the hands of the treas urer and sheriff sufficient auto funds to pay all deferred pay msnts as they come due in July June and August.
 I will admit that it looks as though my efforts in the road business the past 30 days have been in vain, but when we have a few days sunshine and Mrch wind I will show you that it has not. I acknowledge that I have made many mistakes sirce have been county judge but have tried to profit by the mistakes and not make the same mistake twice.
 I haven't words to express my sincere appreciation for the CO., operation and support that has been given me and trust that I shall conduct myself and the af- fairs of your business entrusted to me in a way that I may be worthy to merit thesupport and cooperation of all.

con OF the Lions Club in the Hotel du

necessity of a new city charter for

Mr.. Bayard criticised severely the

incident which occurred during the in
Huenza epidemic, when the board

He urged the members of the club

city, and pointed out many needs for

DAUGHERTY SUIT WAITS
UNTIL AFTER ELECTION
Untermyer's Letter to Keller

by Associated Press TO Every Evening.
Washington. Sept. 1.-THE Inn
parchment proceedings against At
torncy-General Daughcrty, hitherto
regarded rather lightly in Washington.
assumed more seriously proportions
yesterday when Samuel Untermycr
consented To prosecute some OF the
charges, and Republican members OF
the House judiciary Committee hastily
postponed hearing on the charges until
after the election.
Mr.. Untermyer dashed the Attorney
General sayaRely in letter TO Rep
resentatlve Keller, OF Minnesota, who
brought the impeachment charges, and
yho had appealed 10 Mr.. Untermyer
TO act rs his counsel. He said lawyers
generally stand "aghast" at tho nature
OF the injunction procured by MIR.
Daugherty against the striking shop
men. but he treated AZ even more
serious Mr.. Daughertys alleged failure
to prosecute violntors of the antitrust
laws.

that Mr.. Nntermyer thinks no evidence

was passing upon the appointment OF
Judge Wllkerson, who went On the
bench only n short time before. He
seems TO think Mr.. Daugherty may
have had Judge Wilkerson appointed
for purposes OF tho Injunction.
But the letter made it plain that Mr.
untermyer was concerned mainly with
the alleged derellction Of the Depart

quenny, plans have been made. Il If

day.
when men have occasion TO tell the
good points OF their cities, Il Is Gus
tomary To point out the splendid roada

Mr.. Ernst" II Ia not because they
think such evidences OF material pros

I'm life. but IL is their way of measur-
Ing the machinery which the people
OF the city may use. No one denies
that the most precious treasures Of
any city are tho human beings which
dwell In IL and we may try 10 show
how much we care for this treasure in
terms OF the schools. libraries. pnrks
fairgrounds. which we give them 10
enjoy.
All human beings arc precious but
our greatest possible opportunity lies
IN the children. In the case of our own
families. we like to think that we
are doing everything we can for them
to make their lives 40 full as possible
OF happiness. II is the noblest ambi-
ton of man that his child should bnve
even greater opportunities for de-
Yelopment than he himself has. II YOU
do not remember your own childhood
you have but TO wa1ch tho children
about you to be reminded that tho
biggest thing In the life of children is
their play. With them. play Ia a bual.

child knows that what the child wants

when we think we are doing children
service by entertaining them wher
what they want is chance TO buiI(

Play Is fundamental in the health,

occasion to think about these thing
when children had plenty OF room I,

congested city districts we are obige,
to substitute for the fields and pas

AT best such procedure Is the sur

The fallaoy of leaving children TO fin

The city which can show alon
