OBSERVE WORLD’S
TEMPERANCE DAY
Sunday Schools of Newark Unite
in Observance of Day Set
Apart for Temperance
The World’s Temperance Sunday
$as very fittingly observed in Newark
last Sunday by all the Sunday
schools. The world's temperance les
son was supplemented at some of tin
churches with a special program a'
I the 11 o’clock hour, and at night al
i the Sunday schools of the city joinec
1 in a grand temperance rally at th<
Christian church. The program con
sisted of recitations, temperance song!
and addresses.
A. M. Eller made the opening ad
dress, and after briefly stating the objee
of the meeting he gave a blackboarc
lecture in which he brought out statis
tics showing the evil resuls of drink.
“Our greatest evil and its remedy’
was discussed by S. L. Mayhan, wh<
declared that the saloon had alwayi
been a curse to society and shovvec
how it had recruited the penitentiaries
filled the jails, peopled graveyards
and increased poverty and crime. H*
declared that nothing short of state
wide prohibition and law-enforcinj
officers will rid the state of this evil.
Dr. W. P. Moore discussed th<
physiological effects of alcohol. Hi
said that alcohol was a useful ant
almost indispensable drug, and tha
it should not be used except as such
That it was not a food, but a poisot
and that the state had no moral righ
to license the sale of such a poison
ous drug.
Rev A. II. Dulaney took up ant
briefly discussed the saloon from ;
business standpoint, and illustratet
the point that the saloon does no
bring revenue or benefits to a commu
nity, as is often claimed, but that it is
a drain to the community where it is al
lowed to exist.
Prof. A. A. Henderson then led i
round table discussion, and amonj
the great many other good things sail
he suggested that while our own com
munity was free from- the evil influ
ences of the saloon, we should be vigi
lant in keeping it away from our town
The recitations by Misses Myrtl
Jackson and Vane Drennen were fine
and the meeting was pronounced b;
all one of the best of the kind eve
held in Newark.

BEAUTIFUL HOME WEDDING
Sunday evening at 6:30 o'clocl
at the home of Judge and Mrs. M
L. Arnold a quiet and beautifu
wedding was solemnized when the
Rev. A. H. Dulaney joined in the
holy bonds of matrimony C. S
Adams and Miss Bess Arnold.
The groom is a popular anc
promising young railroad man
now employed as brakeman or

Iron Mountain.
The bride is one of the mos
popular young ladies in Newarl

won for her a large circle of ad
miring friends.

to match. Immediately after the
ceremony, Mr. and Mrs. Adam:

Springs to spend the week at th(

CONGRESSMEN AS
OFFICIAL WAITERS
Pie Counter Attendants to be
Busy for Some Time Distrib
uting Federal Patronage
There will be a radical change in
the system of making nominations for
| federal appointments in Arkansas.
I Under the Republican regime, the
places were apportioned by the State
Central Committee, as the ^party had
no representatives in Congress. It
was this which maintained the party
, machine in the state, and now that
the party has been defeated, there is
i considerable conjecture as to the
future of the Cay ton-Remmel- Bratton
organization.
; The endorsement of applicants for
federal appointment will now fall to
. the lot of the state’s nine representa
tives in Congress and Messrs. Clarke,
Davis, Caraway, Oldfield, Floyd,
, Wingo, Jacoway, Taylor and Good
i win will discover that they have never
i been more popular or more sought
after. They will be relieved, however,
of the worry of selecting 1750 post
i masters for the fourth-class^ postoffi
. ces of the state. The salaries of these
• offices range from a few hundred to a
thousand dollars, after which they are
i raised to the Presidential class.
. These minor offices were by the last
[ Congress, in itsconcluding days,trans
: ferred to the Civil Service, and the
recommendation of postmasters turn
, ed over to the eight Postal Inspectors
: in the state. Whenever there is a
. vacancy, or any reason for a change,
the inspector posts the following no
[ tice at the office:
L “To whom it may concern:
I I have been directed to select for
■ recommendation from among the can
. didates filing applications, a person
( for appointment as postmaster at . . .
.. having regard for the
suitability of the applicant and his
i ability to provide proper facilities to
r transact i>ostal business.
I “Any person desiring to apply for
this position should address a simple
form of application in duplicate to me
at this office within ten days from
date.”
The inspectors thus become indi
vidual buffers for the horde of appli
• cants for the small postottiees of the
r state. They are instructed that in
making selections they shall positive
ly ignore the religion and politics of
the applicant.
