THE BEE CORRECTED
Statement From the Committee
Concerning the Bee’s Re
port of the Speaking
at Sulphur Rock.
Editor The Journal
We the undersigned members
of the different committees having
in charge the arrangements for the
picnic which was had at Sulphur
Rock on October 2nd, have had
our attention called to an anony
mous article published in last weeks
Bee under the caption: “Echoes
from Sulphur Rock,” and pur
porting to be a report or some
thing of the sort of the picnic, but
in fact is an article written by
some one who conceals himself
from the public.
And purporting to be a report
or something of the sort of the
picnic, but in fact is an article
written by some one who conceals
himself from the public.
After a careful perusal of the
same we unhesitatingly denounce
it as a flagrant deception, a false,
slanderous and scurrilous report,
an unwarranted attack upon Jeff
Davis, and a reflection upon the
kind and hospitable people who
entertained the governor of our
state upon that occasion, as well as .
the good name of the community
and those who were in attendance
upon the picnic generally; and that
the article is clearly intended to
prejudice voters against the candi- j
cacy of .Jeff Davis for governor,
and without cause.
So far as the committees know—
and they have made some inquiry
concerning the matter—the con
duct of each and all the candidates
for governor was without fault
and above reproach.
This statement is applicable al
so to an editorial contained in the
Bee of the same issue only so far ,
as it relates to the conduct of Jeff j
at Sulphur Rock, and reflects up
on the people here, and which we
excuse as being founded upon the
anonymous and vile echo which we
submit is plainly dehors the re
cord.
We make this statement to fur
ther or advance the interest of no
candidate, but that the truth, which
is a stranger to the author of the
article in question, may be known
and justice done.
We thank the people for their
attendance upon the picnic and
invite them to come again.
Trusting that we may find space
in your progressive paper for the
publication of the above statement,
and thanking you for the favor,
we remain
Respectfully yours.

The Necessity for System
and Method.
There is today, as there has been
in the past, a crying need for me
thodical, systematical education.
The erratic, the changeable meth
od will not do, it must be put aside.
The boy who is trained to arise at
a certain hour, dine at special
hours, and have a particular time
for every duty, and then conforms
with this training is the one who is
going to make the successful busi
ness man in later years. It is nev
er too soon to begin this training
either. The sooner the better. And
if children may not get this train
ing at home it were far better
that they be sent away to the var
ious schools, collegs, and institutes,
where it may be received.
The naval and military training
schools, established and maintain
ed by the United States govern
ment are about the best institutes
in this respect to be found in this
country.
The majority of young Ameri
cans at the present day are not
compelled to follow any set form
of rules or methods, except proba
bly at the schools. But system is
just as necessary in the home life
as in the scholastic, and parents
can not be too persevering in the
making and enforcing of rules for
regularity and uniformity in habits
and training.
It is a great mistake to compel a
child to conform to the rules of
the school he attends, only so long
as he is under the eye of the in
structor. He should have rules to
follow both at home and at school.
Aside from its commercial and
industrial advantage there is also
physical betterment. To delay and
put off until the last moment and
then to rush in and by an almost
superhuman effort accomplish the
task on hand, causes more strain
on the body than twice the work
done systematically and continu
ously.
System and method are the
foundation of all the success, all
the wealth, all the good, all the life
in fact that abounds in this great
world.
Without them we would be fail
ures, bankrupts and derelicts.
The boy who studies, works or
plays by fits and starts is the man
who in the future puts off, lays
aside his business for some trifle,
and later loses all.
System is a necessity, an exi
gency, an essentiality, and its need
is more and more felt each succeed
ing day and year.
These are the keys to success
which should be placed in the hands/
of every boy of the present day.

Recently a car load of rasor-back

to Kansas City and brought the
highest price on the market. Prof.
Carlyle, of the Wisconsin Experi
ment Station, has been crossing
the Southern root-rippers with
the best highly bred Berkshires
and Poland Chinas, and he says
the results have been entirely sat
isfactory. He claims that the
crosses are much less liable to hog
diseases than the inbred pure
breeds, and that the sows are much
more prolific, and that their diges
tive powers are wonderful. This
cross results in a typical bacon hog.
It is according to reason and an
alogy that high breeding involves
inbreeding to an extent that im
' pairs hardiness and resistance to
disease, and that inbred rustling
habits has a contrary tendency and
that muscle being the chief charac
teristic of the hardy rustlers, they
develop more red meat than neu

Farmers are rushing their cot
ton to market and are getting 9 to
9 1-2 cents for it. This rush has
convinced buyers that the crop
has been underestimated. After a
while it will bring about 12 cents,
and perhaps more, then farmers
who have sold out and spent the
money received will wish they
hadn’t been in such a hurry.—Tex

Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure now known to the medical

Cure is taken internally, acting di

surfaces of the system, thereby

disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the con

ANIMATED MEETING
Candidates for Governor Pass the
Usual Compliments at fleet
ing to Arrange Speak
ing Appointments.
The three candidates for gover
nor of Arkansas, had what may
be properly termed an animated
meeting in the senate chamber at
the state house Friday afternoon.
A heated colloquy between Hon.
A. F. Yandoventer and Governor
Davis occurred, and a personal
collision was averted only by the
prompt, action of Judge Wood and
others present.
The purpose of the meeting was
to arrange dates and places for
joint discussions. In addition to
being present, each of the candi
dates had a personal representative
on hand. George B. Pugh appear
ed for Judge Carroll 1). Wood,
Private Secretary Charles Jacob
son for Governor Davis and Judge
J. B. McCaieb for Mr. Yandeven
ter.
At the outset, J udge Wood drew
the right to specify the points
where the joint discussions shall
open and close. Each of the three
candidates then submitted a list of
places for speaking appointments,
the combined lists aggregating
about one hundred and fifty places
in the state. Governor Davis’ list
contained the names of sixty-eight
points at which he proposed to
speak. It was agreed that the
three lists be referred to Messrs.
Pugh and Jacobson, and that the
appointments be arranged by them
so as to embrace practically all the
places suggested by the three can
didates.
There was a division of opinion
as to when the joint discussions
should commence. The primaries
will be held on the last Saturday in
March, 1904. Judge Wood favor
ed starting the proposed joint
speaking tour on January 1. Gov
ernor Davis insisted on beginning
it on November 1. Mr. Vandeven
ter was agreeable to either sugges
tion.

Heart Trouble Baf
fled Doctors.
Dr.Miles’Heart Cure and
Nervine Cured Me.
There is nothin? more necessary to health
than sleep and rest. If these are denied you,
if you rise in the morning more tired than
when you went to bed, there is an affection of
the nerves plainly present. If your heart is
weak, or there is an inherited tendency in
that direction, your weakened nerves will
soon so affect your heart's action as to bring
on serious, chronic trouble. Dr. Miles Ner
vine is a nerve tonic, which quiets the nerves,
so that sleep may come, and it quickly re
stores the weakened nerves to healih and
strength. I)r. Miles’ Heart Cure is r great
blood and heart tonic which regulates the ac
tion of the heart, enriches the blood and im
proves the circulation.
“Some time ago I was suffering severely
with heart trouble. At times my heart would
seemingly stop beating and at others it would
beat loudly and very fast. Three to four
hours sleep each night in ten months was all
I could get. One week in last September I
never closed myeves. I got Dr. Miles’Nervine
and Heart Cure at a drug store in Lawrence
burg, after spending $300.00 in medi
cines and doctors in Louisville, Shelbwille,
Frankfort, Cincinnati and Lawrenceburg,
and in three days have derived more benefit
from the use of your remedies than I got
from all the doctors and their raedi nes. I
think everybody ought to know 0# the inai
velous power contained in your remedies. —
