FRIDAY, AUGUST ‘25.
The Greene County Newsboy!
says that any man, who, at the age
<»f ‘25. is not married, should, by
an act of the legislature, be denied
the right to vote.
We notice that several of the
federal office-holders of Arkansas
3ire touring Europe and “having a
tine time. It's wonderful, Nn t
it, how rapidly a man rises in the
world after he once gets comfort- j
ably seated at Cnele Sam’- pie
counter? _________
The < ieorgia legislature which is
juow in session has passed a bill
abolishing all the negro militia in
Georgia and depriving all present!
and retired negro officers of their
rank. It is the general belief there
that the negro troops are a useless
expense and would do more harm
than good if called out for active
duty, ________
-^ )
The Black Rock Telephone
thinks there are too many worth
less newspapers being published in
Arkansas, and we heartily agree
■with the Telephone. A good pa
lter, well patronized, is an honor
to any town and an important fac
tor in it> upbuilding, but we be
lieve there are some papers in Ar
kansas that are so sorry they are,
actually a drawback to their town.
A Filipino went crazy out in
Kansas and the state authorities
have refused to admit him to the
state hospital. A case has been
made which promises to go to the
supreme court. But what will that
count in the way of defining the
status of an insane Asiatic Ameri
can? lie is not an alien and sub
ject to deportation and is not an
American. The court will have, a
knotty problem to wrestle with.
It is said that Congressman Mu
con of this State will introduce and
push a bill in the next session of
Congress to prohibit the govern
ment from granting license for the
sale of whisky in prohibition ter
ritory. Such a measure would go
a long way towards solving the
blind tiger problem, which a great
many towns in Arkansas are now
wrestling with, dust s() long as
the government ignores the voice
of the people in this matter and
issues l.!-en>e indiscriminately to
any man who has the price, ju.-t that
long will there be biind tigers.
The tigers are not going to ven
ture very far in the business with
out l neie .Sam's permission. They
may defy the local and county au
thorities. hut when Uncle Sam
gets after the tiger he puts a
crimp in his tail.
JUST A NICE FIT.
Because we published a sketch
of Governor Davis’ speech when
lie spoke here on the 8th of Au
gust, the Pocahontas News-Herald
seems to think The Journal is a
“■red-hot” Davis paper. Verily,
the ignorance and stupidity of
some men is appalling. The Jour
nal is a newspaper, not the hand
organ of any political clique or in
dividual, therefore it publishes
public occurrences just as they oc
cur, without any attempt to color |
or distort the facts in the case; and
in publishing a sketch of the gov-!
ernor’s speech The Journal did no
more that it would have done had
tin* governor of any other state
spoken here.
The Journal s idea of the duty
of a newspaper is to publish
the news and give the facts on both
sides of all public questions fairly
and impartially, and let the people
form their own conclusions.
But there is a class of so-called
newspapers in Arkansas, presided
over by a lot of warty individuals
who are only kept right end up by |
the size and weight of their feet,
who seem to think that any man
who happens to differ from them
is a tit subject only for the insane
asylum.
But they are not so much to
blame after all, we suppose, for
the size and character of their
brain will not permit them to en
tertain a very broad view of any |
subject, and, judging from the ed
itorial policy of his paper,^the
News-Herald man seems to fit in
that class pretty nicely.
EARNERS’ UNION flEETlNG.
Editor The Journal:
Newark Union No. s0l, held a
very interesting meeting Aug. 11*.
We had several neighboring Uni
ons represented and considerable
business of importonce was trans
acted: business that is calculated
to be of great interest to the broth
erhood at large. I was glad to see
so much interest manifested. It
stimulates the members to attend,
and by that mean-, we get the dif
ferent ideas in regard to proposi
tions that are likely to come up.
Now, brothers, let me urge you to
throw otf your lethargy and turn
out at every meeting and talk bus
iness, and do business, and you,
will become interested, if you are
not already. The social part of
the Union is worth the money it
cost, and the time you lose in at- j
tending the meeting, to say noth- {
ing about the lasting benefits to be]
derived therefrom. Our Union]
meets every lir-t and third Satur- ]
days at o o'clock p. m.
Yours fraternally,
A. II. Savloi.s.

All Along the Road
The David Bradley Double Cam
Steel Hey Press
is the favorite because it is the simplest press ever made.
You can’t beat it. It lias all the strong points, will put full
weight into a car, is easy and light to move, and it can’t go
wrong or get out of order because there is nothing about it
to get out of order. Just a plunger, a double cam and a
plunger draw. l>ut they are well made. 1 hat’s the secret.
Come in and let’s talk this matter over. You can’t tell all
about the David Bradley Press just from the picture.
