FRIDAY, APRIL 1, 1904.
Arkansas has broke the record.
Why not run Jell' for President?
Good-bye .ledge Wood. Take
keer o’ yo’ sef.
And our friend Coger of Eve
ning Shade—wonder how he feels?
..V
The democratic county conven
tion will meet at Batesville the
first Monday in May.
Thank the Lord, the people will
now have a few months of peace
and rest from politics.
Look out, old man Berry! Grab
dat board you’re sittin’ on, or
you’s goin’ to lose yer seat.
It makes some men prouder to
be the friend of a successful poli
tician than it does some men to be
a successful politician.
What this (Big Bottom) town
ship done to Jell was not a plenty,
but we will let it pass at that. Most
of our people can remember two
years back.
Since Sharp county has gone for
Davis the Record can now resume
its eulogy of Grover Cleveland
where it quit off some t ne ago to
ta.:e up the fight again.s^ jff.
I
Independence seems to take no
heed of how her neighbors do. For
instance, Jackson, White, Cle
burne, Stone, Izard, Sharp and
Lawrence counties all went for
Davis but Independence went for
Wood. _
The Journal believes that Ark
ansas should change her election
laws so as to elect all state officers
only every four years, and make
them all inelegible for more than
one term.
Goldman Destroyed.
Stuttgart, March 28.—The en
tire business portion of the town
of Goldman, including the postof
liee, live miles southwest of this
city, burned to the ground at 6 o’
clock last night. The principal
losers are G. A. Euler and \Y . F.
Mcacham, There was no insur
ance, and the origin of the fire is
unknown.

Robbed The Grave
A startling incident, is narrated
by John Oliver of Philadelphia,as
follows: ’I was in an awful con
dition. My skin was almost yel
low, eyes sunken, tongue coated,
pain continually in back and sides,
no appetite, growing weaker day
by day. Then I was advised to
use Electric Bitters, to my great
joy, the first bottle made a decided
improvement. I continued their
use for three weeks, and am now
j a well man. I know they robbed
I the grave of another victim.” No
one should fail to try them. Only
50 cents, guaranteed, at J. I.
Sturdivant’s drug store.
May Be Lynched.
Tupelo, March 26.— A white
man attempted to commit assault
on a 13-year-old girl this morning
about three miles east of this place.
He was captured this evening at
Weldon while trying to board a
train. Excitement runs high and
'a ?* nching is feared.

THE LITTLE BEE.
There was once a politician,
And he had a little bee.
A buzzin’ and a buzzin’
"Where an insect shouldn't be.
And the bee kept on a buzzin',
Till the politician got
A notion he was born to tell
The people what is what.
And his mouth got broad and roomy,
And his tongue got long and thin,
As he shouted and he spouted
On the reasons he should win.
And he spent his cash in handfuls,
But he didn’t care for that,
While the little bee was busy
In the high part of his hat.
And he saw himself a sittin’
In the office lie had won,
And everybody talkin’
Of the things that he had done.
But, alas! the morning after,
When he crawled out of his bed,
He listened and he listened,
But the little bee was dead!
A Great Sensation.

Leesville, Ind, when W.H.Brown
| of that place, who was expected to
die, had his life saved by Dr.
King’s New Discovery for Con
sumption. lie writes: “I endur
ed insufferable agonies from Asth
ma, but your New Discovery gave
I
me immediate relief and soon
thereafter effected a complete
icure.” Similar cures of consump

grip are numerous. It's the best
! peerless remedy for all throat and
' lung troubles.Price 50c and $1.00.

Young Plants
Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that’s the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
Scott’s Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
of food, but because the food
does not feed.
* Scott’s Emulsion really feeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow—
! Scott’s Emulsion seems to find
it and set the matter right.
