GOOD FOR ARKANSAS
State is Forging to the Front in Mat
ters Pertaining to Public Education
Arkansas is sending good news to
the world- news that merits congratu
lation for tiie State: for it tells of a
splendid progress in one of tlie best and
most essential factors of modern civil
ization.
Where one dollar was invested in
public education last year, Arkansas
this year puts two dollars. This means
of a surety that the two blades of
grass will lie growing in that State
where fine grew before. Nay, it means
far more than material development.
It argues for a better and a higher
citizenry. Not that Arkansas has not
already some of the ablest and liest
citizens to be found anywhere, but in
that State, as in all others, there is
room for improvement, especially
along the line of public education.
It is gratifying to note, too, that the
teachers are not forgotten. There is
a raise all along the line. The educa
tors of the State are to receive ljetter
HERMAN HOCHMUTH.
Mrs. earnest hociimuth, 1701
Maple St., Des Moines, Iowa
writes: "Two year* ago our little boy,
Herman, was taken down with scarlet
lever. He took cold with it, and in
stead of the eruptions coming to Use
surface they affected his lungs and
stomach. Eor weeks we watched by
his bedside, hardly expecting him tc
live from one hour to the next.
“Finally he became a little better and
was able to sit up. Then ho commenced
to cough, and in spite of every tiling we
could do he seemed to get worso all the
time. Iiis coughing spollsNvould Iasi
until he was completely exhausted, and
his lungs hurt him a groat deal. Every
body thought lie had consumption.
“One day, while at the drug storo, mj
husband saw a Pemna almanac anc
brought it home. Wo read in it a per
feet description of his case and w<
thought we would try Peruna. W<
bought a bottle, quit everything else,
and began giving him Peruna.
“By the time two-thirds of the bottle
Wits used the cough had almost gone
After ho had taken two bottles he was
perfectl jT cured. He lias not seen a sick
day since and is a hearty, healthy boy
“We shall al way's praise Peruna, foi
It saved our boy’s life.”

than any other officials who serve the
people. The raise is not by a good
deal as large as it should l>e, never
theless it shows that the teacher's ser
vice begins to be better appreciated and
will, no doubt, lead to more adequate
remuneration in the future.
The public pays high for a tax col
lector, high for a conservator of pub
lic records and high for certain other
services connected with safeguarding
property; but it doles out a pitifully
small fee to the teacher, whose work,
even from a material point of view,
does more toward increasing the pub
lic revenue and protecting the peo
ple's property than any three branches
of public service. Education, proper
education, means the intelligent labor
that produces wealth and the honesty
that is above jeopardizing it through
the meaner and more ignoble motives.
The teacher's work, then, is at once a
wealth producer, which means curtail
ed public expenses.
Arkansas has wisely taken cogniz
ance of this fact. It is investing in
education. It will reap a reward. All
of the Southern states. Arkansas in
cluded, have been poop, too poor, to
put out as much money as they would
like, in public education; but times are
changing. We are growing rich and
it is with a great deal of satisfaction
that we point to increased public edu
| cation investment as we increase in
' wealth. What Arkansas is doing
j every Southern state is doing accord
1 ing to its means. It is a good sign,
i and if the laudable practice is contin
j ued, as it is certain to l>e, the day

TOOK HIMSELF TO PRISON
Jackson County Man Went to Little
Rock With His Own Commitment
“W. M. Parker of Jackson county,
who was recently convicted in the
Jackson circuit court on the charge of
! assault with intent to kill and sentenc
ed to one year in the penitentiary,
called at the governor's office with his
commitment and a petition for his
pardon,” Friday, says the Little
Rock Gazette. ‘“Governor Pindall
received the papers for examination,
and, pending his decision on the ap
plication for padon. granted the de
fendant a reprieve for 30 days.”
The offense for which Parker was i
convicted was the shooting of Grit I
Gray on September 10, 1007. Gray
it is alleged, went to Parker’s home
during Parker’s absence and insulted
his family, consisting of the wife and
five children, compelling them to leave
the home and seek protection at a
neighbor’s house. When Mr. Parker
returned to his home and was inform
ed of the actions of Gray, he seized
his shotgun and went after Gray,
shooting him upon first sight, the
charge entering Gray’s right side, in
flicting a would that it was thought
would prove fatal. Gray recovered,
however, in a short time.
Gray is well known in independence
county, having been principally rais
ed in Rlaek River township.
Parker is said to be an industrious
farmer and to have borne a good re
| putation in his neighborhood.
POLITICS IN MAGNESS
To The Newark Journal:
If you will allow me a little space
I thought I would give you a little of
up Salt river. I can safely say this
year is the first in life that I ever saw
two primaries held.
I think we have a splendid man for
governor of Arkansas. He was my
man from first to last.
1 have always noticed when we have
state, county and township elections
that governor came first and road
overseer last on the official ballot.
We have heard of things changing
ends, and [ think this is one time they
did, as the candidates for road over
seer seemed to l>o the biggest thing we
had. About the 25th of March we
held a primary election, in which Will
Grisham and Bev. Owens were the
candidates for road overseer of Mag
ness township, and it was certainly a
nice little race. Bev. Owens winning
by only two votes, making him the
nominee. After Mr. Grisham being
honored with this possition four years
and about two or three months, he
hated to turn loose. It made some of
his friends sore so they put Bud Smith
out to defeat Owens. But, this resulted
two to one in favor of Owens. I
wouldn't have thought Bud Smith
would have been led into this. 1 think
the reason was his mother failed to
make him get up in time to get his
eyes open, and one eye is a little
“crooked" yet.
Bud Smith thought his friends were
manv.
Grisham was awful sore.
Bud Campbell said to Page,
I have only four.
They rigged a hack to bring' them in
Their number was hard to find.
And when their men hit the gound—
Goodenough Bev you can have mine.
They put Bill Grisham out for the
raider.
But in spite of all old Bev will be
grader.
Grisham says hoys its hard to give it
up
As the weather will soon be getting
cold,
For this road money, as you know,
Is just as good as gold.
Now boys cool off and quiet down,
And be ready to work when Bev
comes round.
The 14th of September,
On Monday it come
Grisham says boys
It's just as good as rum.
Bud he stretched around
In his wife's way of course,
■And like a good woman
Bhe said go on Bud
And take your dose.
This reminds me of my old coon song
I wish they’d bring him back,
Owens ran Smith over the fence
And Grisham through the crack.
And now good friends and neigh
bors, to you all I’ll leave good will
and l>est wishes and a good old Demo
crat time. It. M. Chow.

TARIFF AND WAGE-EARNERS.
American Workers Sorely Oppressed
and Receive No Benefit.
American wage-earners are sorely
oppressed by the present high tariff.
Even if it be admitted that the tariff
enables some of them to obtain bet
ter wages than they perhaps could
under lower duties, the number of
such is relatively small. It embraces
only those who are employed in cer
tain industries. To the great major
ity of workers the high tariff is not
only of no benefit, but imposes exac
tions which to many are cruelly bur
densome.
The tariff reaches about everything
that the wage-earner must have.
There Is hardly a necessity that is not
included in the schedules of the Ding
ley law, and on not a few of these
the duties are as heavy as those lev
ied on luxuries which can be had only
by the rich. This is one of the ine
qualities of the law which justifies
the demand for tariff revision and re
form. There can be no defense of a
policy that thus discriminates against
the great majority of the people.
In the pending campaign the wage
earners of the country are pretty
certain to give more earnest consider
ation to the oppressive exactions of
the existing tariff.—Chicago Journal.

EATS WAY OUT OF W0RKH0U8E.
Woman Has Such an Appetite That
City Refuses to Pay Her Board.
Cincinnati, O.—If there is one wom
an who never spends much time at
the city workhouse, as long as Super
intended Rader is there and he can
prevent it, that woman is Lizzie Strott
man. Her appetite obtained her free
dom the other day. as it has on sev
eral other occasions. She was re
leased from jail because she eats too
much.
She weighs more than 300 pounds.
Superintendent Rader appeared in
court and made the plea for her re
lease.
‘‘She eats us out of food every
day.” said he. “and the city goes Into
debt every time she is at the works.”
Lizzie is proud of her appetite. She
admits that even with her enormous
capacity for food, she sometimes cats
a little more than necessary, just to
get out of the works. At 12 yeais of
age Lizzie weighed nearly 200 pounds,
and ate as much as two men. She is
25 now and still growing.
