Little Rock Letter

Little Rock, July 2S-The anvil
chorus is playing its biennial engage
ment i'm Arkansas The musicians are
bearing down strong on the bass and
are giving splendid imitation Of
jazz. In other words it is difficult to
discriminate between music and noise,
there is no such thing as harmony.
The result is anything but gratifying
to the asthetic sense.
Translated into plain American, the
Arkansas politicians are staging a
regular Kilkenny cat fight. If we may
Judge from the published advertise
ments of all of the six candidates for
governor, not one of them is worthy
of the office. All of them are laying
down fve-way barrages and including
the whole territory in their fusilades.
If the charges and counter-charges
made by all of the candidates are true,
not one of them is fit to occupy the
exalted office Of Governor of Arkan-
sas.
And what is the poor voter to do
about it. His mind is left in state
Of utter confusion. The average voter
wants to support the best man, but he
is unable to decide in the midst Of all
the ordinations and recriminations
whether there is any best man in the
lot. 1t is really a regrettable fact
that the average politician, by which
we mean the patriotic citizen who is
willing to undertake the arduous tasks
Of public Office, should consider it nee
essary to devote his entire time and
the newspaper space for which they
are supposed to pay regular advertis-
ing rates. to n condemnation of his Op-
ponent, rather than to dignified
statement of his own qualifications
and platform. 1t is just such cOndi4
tiOns as are prevailing in Arkansas to-
day and that disgusts the average
voter and justifies the condemnation
by good citizens of the prevalent sys-
TEN of dirty politics"
The election will be held two weeks
from this Tuesday. Indications are
that the vote will be very heavy as
there have been more poll taxes paid
than usual and the women are taking
a greater interest than ever before in
the election. The Klan issue is being
forced in many sections of the state
and the strength of the Klan is a mat
ter of the widest conjecture on the
part of the public. The opposition is
responsible for the most of the publ
city being given the Klan. No one
denies that it will exercise very con
siderable influence upon the results.

The annual Christmas Seal sale is
now on 1t commenced on Nov.
2Sth and will continue until the first
of the New Year. When the work
ers call on you, do pour bit-buy all
you can.
The Christmas Seal of 1924 departs
from the usual type or design. In
stead of stressing the Christmas
idea, it stresses the health and edu-
cational appeal The design depicts
knowledge enlightening the world as
to the dangers of tuberculosis. Rest
ing her hand upon the shield of the
double-barred cross she indicates
that she is defending the world
against tuberculosis. The Torch of
Enlightenment, and the Shield of
Defense, represents the weapons
with which tuberculosis must be
conquered. The double barred cross
on the Shield unmistagably associ-
ates the seal with the National Tu-
berculosis movement.
The double-barred cross was a
combination of the Croix de Lor-
raine and the cross of the Greek
Catholic church. Both crosses ..are
symbolic of charity and help to hui
manity and their combination was
selected to be the symbol of hope
to civilization. The double-cross
has stood for every feature of the
great battle against the scourge of
humanity. 1t has provided mobile
tuberculosis exhibits which have
taugh3 thousands the insidiousness
of the disease and it has established
tuberculosis weeks in which Ameri-
cans have learned how to fight the
plague.
1t would not be possible to record
all of the good the double-barred
cross has accomplished. II. has
been persistantly in the fight. 1t is
gradually Kidding the nation of tu-
berculosis and other diseases.

Better Times May
Bring Railroad
Lewistown Paper Believes There Is
Hope of Railroad as Times I'M
prove. Here's Hoping

The present stock market has car
ried all standard railway shares to
new high marks and repOrtSS from
the headquarters of our largest trans
portation companies are more opti-
mistic than they have been in eight
years All carloading records. are
being broken, gross receipts are
highly satisfactory and net earnings
promise dividends on stocks which
have returned no profits since be-
fore the war. AS a result of this
vastly improved condition, many of
the more important roads are max
ing plans for extensive betterments
and extensions. 1t Is not unreason-
able to presume that companies
which serve this part of the country
will be able to carry out long delayed
projects of improvement and constru
ction. 1t would be peculiarly FORUM
ate for this community if the Great
Northern could find it possible to
complete the Lewistown-New Rock
ford line and the Milwaukee its pro-
jected extension from Winnett to
Saugus, near Miles City. The Great
Northern line would open up one of
the largest agricultural regions in
the northwest. When the announce
ment was made that the line would
be built thousands of new settlers
flocked into what are now Garfield
and McCone counties and took up
land. Homes were constructed,
fences built, other improvements
made and thousands of acres of land
placed under cultivation. Fine crops
were raised but the distance from
market made successful farming op-
erations difficult, if not impossible.
After years of weary waiting, hun
dreds of the settlers gave up the un-
equal struggle and abandoned their
places. Many are still there, still
waiting for the railroad to come. Let
the word go forth from an official
source that the Hill interests are go
ing to begin at once the work of
completing the line and abandoned
places would speedily be re-occupied,
land values would increase and the
development of an agricultural re-
gion comparable in size to some
states would go forward at an amaz-
ing rate. The acute interest which
Lewistown has in this enterprise lies
In the fact that the completion of
the road would connect our city up
with new trade territory of mar
velous possibilities. With direct
main line connection with the east,
Lewistown would become CONNER
cial center second to none in Mon
tana and would move forward ra-
pidly IN population and industrial
development. The highest officials
of the Great Northern have repeat
edly given assurance that this line
will be the first new construction
undertaken by their road. 1t would
be highly gratifying if an official
announcement could be made some
time during the present winter that
work will be started on the road the
coming spring. -Lewistown Demo
