THE KNOCKER
Every town and every commun
ity has its knockers, but the knock
er is unpopular in all countries
with the possible exception of
China where they do everything
backwards. A Colorado paper
hands the knocker the following
package which is about t&e most
appropriate we have seen.
“After God had finished making
the rattlesnake, the toad, and the
vampire, he had some awfnl sub
stance left with which he made a
knocker. A knocker is a two leg
ged animal with a cork-screw soul,
a water-sogged brain and a com
bination backbone made of jelly
and glue. Where other men have
their hearts he carries a tumor of
decayed principles. When the
knocker comes down the street
honest men turn their backs; the
angels weep tears in Heaven and
the devil shuts the gates of Hell
to keep him out.”
Because the jurors who tried
the case drank nine quarts of
whiskey during the trial, the su
preme court has just reversed a
case appealed from Poinsett coun
ty, the supreme court holding that
the use of intoxicating liquors by
the jury was so excessive as to
render the jury incapable of that
calm, dispassionate and impartial
consideration of the case which the
law demands. Very few men
would like to be tried for any kind
of offense by a drunken jury, and
we believe there are very few cir
cuit judges in Arkansas who would
tolerate a drunken jury in their
court. To say the least of it this is
not a very good advertisement for
the Poinsett county court officials.
Dress is not always a good in

OLIVER HAWKINS, Newark
The McConnon Man
Jackson county has a convict
farm scandal that is enough to
bring a blush of shame to the face
of every good citizen who has a
drop of human sympathy in him.
The blame is laid at the door of
ex-Senator John H. Keel, one of
the county’s most prominent citi
zens, and a man upon whom the
people of JacKson county have
conferred many honors. Insatiable
greed is the real cause of all these
convict farm scandals, and they
will continue until the legislature
abolishes this form of punishment,
which is nothing more or less than
a relic of heathen barbarism.
Next to President Wilson,stands
Senator Clarke in power in Wash
ington. He has the power of the
viee president, with a vote on all
measures in addition. This was he
Stowed upon him because of his
particular fitness for such work
and because President Wilson and
Secretary Bryan knew him to be
the man who would not go hunt
ing or fishing until the party's
pledges to the people were made
good. _
So long as covetous, greedy
men profit by the labor of unfor
tunates who must be sent to the
convict farm to work out fines,
that long will we have scandals
like the one just uncovered in
Jackson county.
Tom Campbell finally screwed
up his courage to where he could
take a plunge into the congression
al race. Tom is a mighty nice boy
but he has an awful jolt coming
to him on the 25th of March.
You will make no mistake if
you trade with the merchants and
others, who let you know through
your home paper that they desire
your business.
Candidates for office have only
a short time left in which to file
their pledge with the secretary of
the central committee. Don’t get
left.
Don’t be a grouch—there are
over ninety million people in this
country who never did you a dirty
trick.
