FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28,1902
Anarchist Baxter should be
ppmiked anti «ent home.
It is given out from Washing
ton that l he republicans have
about concluded that there is too
much political dynannty in a force
bill to make it sate to handle just
ut the present time,
If President Roosevelt imagines
that he has closed the Schley case
by his indefensible decision on
the admiral’s appeal, ho is woful
ly mistaken. No man is so big
that he can override facts.
One thing may be tiuthfnlly
said of both the candidates for
governor—they are hustlers, rand
no matter which one gets the
plum lie will have set an example
of industry worthy of emulation.
The republicans in their last
national platform declared that
territories should ho admitted as
stales as Boon as tiiev e.,me up 10
a reasonable standard. Oklaho
ma, New .Mexico and Arizona are
now pleading for statehood and
have much belter (jualilicalions
and prospects than several of the
states we have already. But it is
feared that they will go demo
cratic, and this is enough to kill
♦ heir chances with a republican
> 'ress.—Atlanta Journal.
Stop. the
Blight
It is a sad thing to see fine
fruit trees spoiled by the blight
You can always tell them from
the rest. They never do well
afterwards but stay small and
sickly.
It is worse to see a blight
strike children. Good health
is the natural right of children.
But some of them don’t get
their rights. While the rest
grow big and strong one stays
small and weak.
Scott’s Emulsion can stop
that blight. There is no
reason why such a child should
Stay small. Scott’s Emulsion
is a medicine with lots of
strength in it—the kind of
strength that makes things
grow.
Scott’s Emulsion makes
children grow, makes them cat,
makes them sleep, makes them
play. Give the weak child a
chance. Scott’s Emulsion will
make it catch up
with the rest.

Cervera no doubt wonders who
it really was that licked him.
When all the controversy over
the battle of Santiago is ended
one fact survives and can never
i be obliterated. It is that Samp
son was not there and that Schley
was, and was the officer in com
mand,—Chicago Chronicle.
If Col. Hector expects to cut
any ice in tho gubernatorial con
test he should dismiss Anarchist
Baxter. The people of Arkansas
are opposed to anarchism and will
not give the man who indorses it
a pleasant look, much less elect
him governor
The Harrison Times very cor
rectly says : “A country newspa
per is an institution that works
night and day for cveiy decent
man in the community; therefore
every d' cent man in the commu
1 nity is in honor bound to assist
, in it’s support.”
; Mark Twain has added two
J new maxims to the world’s al
j ready valuable collection. They
•ire as follows : “We ought nevei
to do wrong when people are
looking," and “No real gentleman
will tell I lie naked t rutli in the
presence of ladies."
The verdict of the American
people—the fairest, most inteli
Stent and best jury which ever
nniMm-mi iut- in'» no i mu liins
in a case of public justice—is that
Admiral Schley was in command
at the battle of Santiago and
gained the victory. And this ver
dict is not reversed by 1’ieident
' Roosevelt’s peculiar decision,
TO DEMOCRATIC VOTERS
Hon. Chas. Jacobson, private secretary to the
| governor, authorizes The Journal to announce that
Governor Jefferson Davis will address the people of
|Newark on Monday, March SO, at 8 o’clock, p. m.
Let everybody turn out and hear him. A cor
dial invitation extended to all.
Judge John B. HcCaleb.
J The auuoucement of .Judge .1.
B. McCaleb as a candidate for
congress appears in today’s paper.
Judge McCaleb is a native of
Sharp county, having been born
in Evening Shade in 185b. Ho re
ceived his education at Evening
Shade, and at the age of fifteen
years began the battle of life for
| Imnself. In 1878 he began the
study of law with lion. Sam 11.
; Davidson and in 1881 was admitt
ed to the bar. When the sixteenth
judicial circuit was created by the
general assembly in 18(Jl Mr. Me*
Cale t announced his candidacy
for circuit judge and was elected.
His decisions rendered in the
court room has stood every test
and Ins recotd along this line is
perhaps unprecedented in the his
tory of the state, lie posesses a
high order of ability, is a deep
reasoner and thinker and has the
willingness and des:re to put foi tli
his best efforts in the interest of
the people. 11c is a firm believer
in the principles of demociaey
md the final triumph of those
principles- The people of this
district could not semi a bettei
man to congress than Judge Joint
B. McCaleb.
TO THE CANDIDATES;
We have a nice lot of
Cards and would like to
have a share of your pat
k Tage. Prices right.
Making a Good Start.
For a young republic that is
just starting in business, Cuba ex
cels in election crookedness. At
the leant election only 11,000
votes were east in Santiago prov
ince. while in t be city of Santiago,
which has less than 15,000 popu
lation, the count reached 30,000.

IrienUs in motiiii iii.-s ue.il. . i
The esteemed Newark Journal
thinks it strange that the News
should prefer Davis to Hector,
after giving Davis a scoring for
abusing Senator Jones. Every
man has his choice and this is ours
in the cnee i f governor, if the
editor of the Journal will search
his memory lie w ill recolect that
when he set type in this office and
was our correspondent from Elgin
he said that the News was com
mended for speaking a good word
for Davis in connection with the
state institutions. The News is
always consistent.-Newport News
Yes, the editor of The Journal
said, and st ill says, that the News
was commended for taking up
the tight in behalf of Davis last
summer when lie caused the man
agement of some of the state in
stitutions to undergo a rigid in
vestigation, But this only more
fully proves that the News is not
so consistent as it would have us
believe.
We admit, and so does every
body, that Governor Davis set on
foot some much-needed reforms,
hut we. must also admit that he
has also done things he ought not
to have done; notably, signing
that b'ick contract. Another
wrong is in threatening to pardon
“every damn one of the convicts”
if the supreme court does not an
nul the contract. But, the whole
human family is aline in that re
spect—we all make mistakes and
there is no man perfect.
The Journal is not, in any sense
of the word, lighting Davis.
Niether do we propose to fight
Hector ; likewise we are not mix
ing up in the senatorial fight, for.
as we have said before, this is a
matter for the people to settle.
Our criticism of the News was
called foitli because of the fact
that that paper, to use the wards
of the Sharp County Kecord.
"takes the cake as a Hopper,” not
herau-e we are in any way inter
terected m either Davis or Hector,
for, God knows, cither of them
is sorry stuff to make a govcrnoi
out of.
However, in answer to the
I News’ statement that it i< always
|consistent, it is only necessary to
rccconimeuil that Uoi. Waterman
dig up the files of his paper and
look over Ids editorial columns.
Then if he does not arrive at the
condusii n that ‘‘eonsisteiuy is a
I Jewell." we must conclude that his
1 l hjnkcry is mit of order.
