It is sometimes the case that the
man who is most bitterly maligned
by his neighbors is the communi
ty’s greatest benefactor.
The man who labors under the
impression that he is the only man
who can make good in his particu
lar position, is in a fair way to lose
his job. _
Folks who become fascinated by
the gleam and glitter of tinsel in
the distance, often overlook the
better things of life that are .scat
tered all around them.
In voting for candidates for of
fice, the voters should consider the
claims of every candidate, not alone
his own declarations, but his char
acter, standing and qualifications
for the office for which he offers.
A man may be a good man, yet
totally unqualified.
Webster once said: “If you work
upon marble it will perish; if you
work upon brass, time will efface
it; if you build temples, they will
crumble to dust; but if you work
upon human minds, if you inspire
them with pure principles, and
with all that is pure in conduct
and great in thought, you are
working upon that which cannot
perish, and which may brighten
and brighten to all eternity.”
The whole truth is yet unknown
to mortals. This is an inducement
for honest and herioc endeavor on
the part of students to delve after
the percious metal, truth, and
bring it up for use, and for the de
velopment of man and the world.
He who thinks he has all the truth j
is fossilized, and looks through the J
“hind-sight” of life.
Every able-bodied idler is a men
ace to the public moral and social
life, and a candidate for a position
in the criminal class, for when a
man desires and strives to get nis |
living without some kind of hon
est endeavor, he soon grows care
less as to how he gets it, and idle
ness soon leads to crime.
The Missouri State Capitol Com
mission, after having visited and
inspected the capitol buildings in
several states in search of a model :
for the new capitol building to be
erected in Jefferson City, have de
cided to take the Arkansas Capitol
as their choice for the building to
reproduced as nearly as possible.
They were from Missouri, and

Kind Friend:
Our campaign is now on in earnest, and from all indications my nomina
tion for Tax Assessor is assured. As a great many people take but little
interest in candidates for this position, I will ask that you consider the fol
lowing: Less than fifteen years ago, our taxes, for all purposes, were less
than $1.50 on each one hundred dollars assessed valuation. Think about it.
Today our taxes arc something like, on an average all over the county, in
cluding taxes for State purposes, $2.25 on each hundred dollars assessed
valuation. What is wrong? There is no question but that we are the
most over-taxed people that can be found in this fair Southland of ours.
Now, the proposition is simply this: We have a great many people that do
not bear their share of the burden of taxes. This makes it hard on each
honest tax-payer, and if 1 am elected to this very important position 1 am
going to try to bring this class of tax-dodgers to justice. I appeal to you to
give me your kindly consideration, and if you nominate and elect me I
shall certainly try to discharge the duties of the office in a creditable man
ner. I am sure you will remember this SPECIAL REQUEST and when you
go to vote LEAVE TIIE NAME S. D. LINDSEY ON YOUR BALLOT.
