Wasn’t it a walk-over?
Ask the defeated candidates how
many truthful men there are in
Woodruff county.
Instead of waiting for some
thing to turn up, get out and turn
up something.
Of course the nominees are pre
pared to tell you how many liars
there are in the couuty.
Yas sa boss der aint no use in
talkin’ he am de warmest fellow in
Arkansas, There i s no use try
ing to get around Jeff.
Now wasn’t it a measley shame
that only 29 out 50 Roger’s men
got to vote in McCrory Wednes
day? Too bad, for he came and
made Rogers men of that number.
We have been accused of allow
ing outside parties to dictate to us
about certuin articles appearing in
the News of late. Why should a
man have to be dictated to about
things that are -so plain and the
way to positive proof so straight,
that a wayfarer, though a fool,
should not err therein!
Now is tho time to clean up your
premises. Don’t wait until the
filth brings disease to your home.
Beautify j'our property by using a
little whitewash on your barns and
fences.
The man, who has an opinion
and is not too biased to tell it to
the world, may be a damphool, yet
he is not to be feared as much as
he, who is not capable of having
an opinion at all—but the woods
are full of them.
It is said, that there are three
faithful friends—an old wife, an
old dog and ready money. To say
just which one of the three would
be most appreciated at this season,
would be a difficult task.
The democratic primary held
Wednesday closed one of the most
hotly contested campaigns ever
witnessed in Woodruff County.
The vote, as polled, showed no
landslide for a single man. All
county candidates, who had oppon
ents, were very uncertain, as to the
other fellows success.. Excitement
reached its height about two O’clock
p. m. and continued until a safe
number of boxes were heard from.
Much interest was also manifested
in the races for the various district
and state offices. At about 11:30
a. m. Today (Thursday) all the
townships had been reported and
the signal was given, as if by
wireless telegraphy, and the de
feated candidates got aboard their
respective Salt River Packets and
took their departure for a few
months voyage over the peaceful
waters of Salt riyer, where the
scenery is more beautiful.

In Memoriam
Last Saturday morning at 4
o’clock, Mrs. Martha E. Smith,
aged 74 years, died at her home in
the Beard neighborhood, of pneu
monia.
The deceased has been a consist
ent member of the Baptist church
35 years, and was known and lov
ed by a large circle of friends
She. with her large family, mov
ed from Fayetteville, Ark-, to
Woodruff county in the year of
1900. She lost her husband the
same year. She leaves three sons
and thaee daughters to mourn her
demise. Dear children, it is sad
to be left to sigh for the sound of
a voice that is silent forever; to
mourn for the touch of a motherly
hand that is still. Yet, while we
grieve, there is a sweet face in our
hearts, for we know that our Heav
enly Father ‘‘doetli all things for
the best,” and will comfort and
help us carry our burdens, if we
look to Him for strength ; so cast
your care upon Him, who is an ev
er present help in time of need.
This world is sad and lonely with
out mother, but heaven is brighter
and more precious to you since she
is there to beckon you on.
On Tuesday, just five days be
fore the death of Mrs. Smith, Miss
Vergie Smith, grand-danghter of
deceased, died of appendicitis and
was buried on her tweutyrsecond
birthday.
