FRIDAY, MARCH 13,1903.
A statement by the city recorder
of Newport shows that town to be
$24,910.01 in debt.
The legislature has extended the:
session 40 days and the Little Rock j
daily papers are happy.
Governor Davis has approved j
the Myers mussel bill and it is now |
a law. Now we will have an op-I
portunity to see who it benetits.
/ Senator Jones, of Arkansas, and
"Senator Jones, of Nevada, have
retired from the United States sen
ate and that august l>ody is now
Jonesless.
It seems that the committee that
is investigating the charges against
Governor Davis has about run out
of soap. The committe met last
Monday night and the most im
portant thing done was to adjourn
until next Monday night.
1 .. ' ■ ■ ' " . •
The present session of the legis
lature has been extended to April
JO. There are some important
bifcii^fore that body that should
Ins to mis
ft an extension of 30 days would
ive afforded ample time in which
to dispose of them.

Through the kindness of TIon. I.
J. Mathen.v we liave a copy of
Judge Merriam’s bill to provide
for the completion of the state
capitol building. The bill deals
with the question in detail and
seems to be well nigh perfect in
every respect. We hope the legis
lature will definitely settle this
question, for if there is any one
thing Arkansas needs more than
anything else it is a new capitol
building.

If solin' member of the legisla
ture wants to l»e of some real ben
efit to tin' state, let him set on foot
an investigation of how ,\rbm-a>
$175,000 public road fund, receiv
ed from the federal government,
has been expended, riiis is a mat
ter worth investigating.
Senator Hinkle, who is one of
the committee sent t<> inspect the
Cummins convict farm, says it i^
as good a farm as there is on tin
river, and the accretion is as good
land as can be found anywhere.
Mr. Ilinkle is a man of good judg
ment and no one will dispute that
John A. knows good laud when lie
sees it.
The extension of the legislature,
exclusive of all incidental ox
ponses, such as clerks, pages, jan
itors, newspaper*, stamps, an l s>
on, will cost the state the neat
sum of $39,390. The new .spa;.its
and stamps for tin' porio I of -! >
days amounts to an additional
#11,490.50, which makes a total of
$50,886.50, to say nothing of ex
pensive clerk hire ami other inci
dental expenses. This is a good
big sum and we can't led;> l*ut
wonder if the taxpayers think they
are getting value received for this
money. It seems to us that the
state is paying too much for its
whistle. ________

The statement lias been nude in

died a few days ago, was the last

From a Texas Brunette.
Bertram, Tex., March I!, 1909.
Editor Newark Journal:
If you will please allow me ■ pace
in your paper 1 will write a short
sketch for the interest of friends
and relatives in Newark who have
sent us letters of inquiry in regard
to how we were satisfied with our
new home in West Texas.
I am only afraid 1 can t give an
accurate description of our coun
try. This (Burnett) county is a
high, rolling country and in situa
tion is 13,072 feet above sea level.
Our little town of Bertram is lo
cated on a high plateau, and bald
ing out north of town for miles
and miles are praries, which is a
beautiful sight to a stranger. It
is interesting to watch the cowboys
rounding up their herds of cattle
and see the herdsmen shooting the ;
mule-eared rabbits and prarie
dogs. Our winters are very mild.
One can raise almost nn.\ thing in
way of vegetables through the
winter. The trees are perfectly
green now. < )ur chief tree i> the
oak. Now, as to health, I will just
say that it cannot be surpassed.
When the census of our county
was taken in 1300 and sent in, on
account of the low death rate it
was sent back for examination by
a board of physicians, which was
done, and Burnett county bears
the distinction of having the low
est death rate of any county in the
United States. Why, then, should
we not be most highly pleased,
and satisfied, which we certainly
are, without a doubt; for is not
health the richest blessing on
earth < It is quite true that this is
by no means Paradise, for wo hat ■
our misfortunes here as elsewhere.
In the years of 11*01 and 1002 we
were struck b.t dreadful drouths,
which were very destructive to
the country, but we have a beau
tiful prospect now an 1 everything
looks flourishing.
I know the people there, to some
extent, say, as 1 once did, that
they could never stand those Texas
lowboys and the high winds, but,
my friends, some of our most
prominent and refined young men
in society are cowboys. Yes, it is
luite true we have high winds and
sand-storms in spring and sum
mer. and girls I must say to you
that our blonds are few, but we
ire a happy and healthy baud of
tmmetts.
I must, close for fear this will
?nter the waste basket. If tlii> is
jf any interest 1 may call nj

Women Need
a constant supply of blood-making ma
terial or their systems will break down.
The complicated female organism is
so delicately adjusted as to oe easily
thrown out of balance. As a result,
health and strength are affected by
divers diseases. Motherhood, family,
pociety all levy such drains upon her
strength that most women break under
the nervous tension. The demands
upon her nervous strength are much
greater than similar demands of the
opposite sex. Hence she must be sup
plied iu greater measure with the ele
ment— iron—that gives strength. The
reason women feel tired and worn out
and suffer from headache, pains in the
back and limbs, etc., is Iwcause they
have used up their supply of iron.
Menstruation trouble is largely caused
by lack of iron.
Dr. Harter’s
Iron Tonic
supplies this element. It enriches the
blood and restores what strain has <
used up.

of heart trouble the stomach, kidneys, liver or
lungs become affected. Again the symptoms
may be those of weakened nerves, as tired
