Solitude For Teddy
And the Big Stick
Roosevelt has plainly shown
that it was not the Bull Moose
nomination he desired. Four
years ago he deliberately scut
tled the G. O. P. ship.This year
he came with overtures of com
promise and reunion with the
Republican party, and now the
print of the G. O. P. boot is
plainly visible upon the stellar
extremity of Teddy’s trousers.
After repudiating the Repub
lican party and setting up a lit
tle party of his own, Teddy
placed himself in the attitude
of again asking favors of the
party he wrecked, and is in
turn repudiated by his former
benefactor.
Chagrined at this defeat of
his efforts to get the G. O. P.
elephant to swallow the Bull
Moose party, horns, teeth and
tail, he turns around and delib
erately cuts off the head of the
Bull Moose, and all that now
remains of that once proud and
haughty animal is a limpid tail
dangling in the air without any
support and with nothing to fall
on.
In permitting the Bull Moose
to nominate him and then re
fusing the nomination, Teddy
has worse than stultified him
self—when his own offspring
was crying for milk he deliber
ately gave the poor dying calf
a swift kick in the ribs and
handed it a stone.
Having now become a man
without a party, there is noth
ing left for Teddy to do except
to take his “big stick” back to
Sagamore Hill, join the Has
Beens and cuss the government.
Funny the office of the State
Superintendent of Public In
struction has never started a
movement for State Uniformity
of text books.—Monroe County
Citizen.
i he state superintendent s
office has been too busily en
gaged in weightier matters to
spend any time with small af
fairs like this. Besides .the peo
ple “pay the freight” anyway,
so what's the use wasting any
time on these small things, es
pecially when the present sys
tem enables our friend, the
Book Trust, to pay bigger divi
dends? The people will have
to look out for themselves—its
all the state superintendent’s
office can do to take care of the
school teachers and the book
agents.
The Republican dark horse
didn’t get out of the thicket.
Dr. Bledsoe testified in the
hospital hearing at Little Rock
this week that he signed a
statement regarding the con
duct of that institution that he
knew was not true. Dr. Bledsoe
certainly has a very high re
gard (?) for truth, and a very
high sense of honor. Hasn’t Dr.
Bledsoe convicted himself of
being a mere place-seeker, in
stead of the stalwart character
whose highest aim is to do right,
which we have been led by the
Gazette to believe that he was?
Will a man who is absolutely
honest and true to his convic
tions of right, deliberately sign
his name to a statment that he
knows is false?
The medical department and
the law department of the Uni
versity of Arkansas are main
tained in Little Rock, and the
agricultural extension service
maintains headquarters in Lit
tle Rock. If Fayetteville is the
proper place for the University
why not keep all the depart
menst in Fayetteville? The fact
is. Little Rock is the only logi
cal location for the University,
and it will never accomplish the
work it should until it is moved
to Little Rock or some point
more centrally situated than its
present location in the extreme
northwestern part of the state.
The government crop report
for June indicates a shortage
of nearly .‘>00,1)00,000 bushels
in the wheat crop in the United
States. The production of wheat
last year reached the enormous
total of 1,011,505,000 bushels,
while the crop for this year is
estimated at 715.000,000. This
ought to insure the farmers a
good price for their wheat, and
it means that the fellow who
has to buy flour after a while
is going to eat rather expensive
biscuits. Please pass the corn
bread.
A gentleman is a man that’s
clean inside and out, who nei
ther looks up to the rich or
down to the poor; who can lose
without whining and win with
out bragging; considerate to
women, children and old peo
ple; who is too brave to lie, too
generous to cheat and too sen
sible to loaf and who takes his
share of the world’s goods and
lets other people have theirs.—
Stuttgart Republican.
“We’re going to passalawto
make primary elections in Ark
ansas honest,” say the Arkan
sas News. We confess that we
are a just little bit dubious;and
merely as a matter of informa
tion will the News point out
where and how primary elec
tions will be any more honest
under the proposed new law
than they are now? It’s infor
mation we want.
Saved Girl’s Life
“I want to tell you what wonderful benefit 1 have re
ceived from the use of Thedford’s Black-Draught,” writes
Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky.
“It certainly has no equal for la grippe, bad colds,
liver and stomach troubles. I firmly believe Black-Draught
saved my little girl's life. When she had the measles,
they went in on her, but one good dose of Thedford’s
Black-Draught made them break out, and she has had ao
more trouble. I shall never be without
u.
in my home.” For constipation, indigestion, headache, dizzi
ness, malaria, chills and fever, biliousness, and all similar
ailments, Thedford’s Black-Draught has proved itself a safe,
reliable, gentle and valuable remedy.
If you suffer from any of these complaints, try Black
Draught It is a medicine of known merit Seventy-five
years of splendid success proves its value. Good for
young and old. For sale everywhere. Price 25 cents.

It is said that the war is af
fecting the price of Bibles.
However, we presume that here
in Newark the wear on the old
ones has not been so great dur
ing the past year as to necessi
tate the purchase of new ones.
It is a very easy matter to
criticise the other fellow forhis
failure to do things as we think
they should be done. But it is
quite a different matter to take
his place and do things better
than he does them.
Plenty of food crops mean
prosperity and independence
for the farmer. And a drive over
the country adjacent to Newark
shows that the farmers of this
section believe in this kind of
farming.
Roosevelt says he is out of
politics. That settles it. You
know what happens to a fish
when it gets out of water.
And speaking of the Hughes
resignation—did you notice how
Wilson took it right off the bat?

STATE CONVENTION
CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR
Newport. June 13.—Prepar
ations are being made by the
young people’s societies of
Newport churches to entertain
more than 100 delegates and

June 26 to 29. Automobile and
J boating parties will be given
for the delegates. The session^
will be held in the Methodist
church.
SENATORIAL BEE
BEGINS TO BUZZ
Oldfield, Carraway and Jaco
oway Being Mentioned As
Probable Candidates
The senatorial bee is said to
be buzzing pleasantly in the
ears of at least three members
of the Arkansas delegation in
the lower House of Congress,
but so far none of them has
announced his intentions of be
coming a candidate.
It is rumored that Congress- j
man T. H. Caraway of Jones-,
boro, who was almost persuad
ed to enter the gubernatorial
race in Arkansas last spring j
may toss his hat in the ring as ■
a contender for the seat now
held by Senator Joe T. Robin
son of Little Rock. Mr. Cara
way is, as yet, ready to make
no announcement, but his
friends believe that he will
probably have a try at the sen
atorial nomination.
Congressman William A.
Oldfield of Batesville, member
of the all-powerful ways and
means committee, and the dean
of the Arkansas delegation in
the House, and H. M. Jacoway,
who represents the Little Rock
district, are also said to be con
sidering the question of enter
ing the senatorial race in Ark
ansas, probably as the succes
sor of Senator James P. Clarke
of Little Rock,, who, rumor
says, may not again become a |
| candidate for the Senate.
Senator Robinson has been ]
in Arkansas for several weeks
looking after his political fences
and will undoubtedly be a
candidate to succeed himself.
