FRIDAY, AUGUST 2, 1907
Can’t the Newark Journal hu
«ior a joke and let E. Cracker jack
Waterman contribute his mite to
the gayety of the campaign in
peace? Every well conducted cam
paign should have a funny side.—
Calico Rock Progress.
Beginning August 5 and con
tinuing live days, the people of
Bald Knob will be treated to aj
joint religious debate between
Klder Ben M. Bogord, Baptist, of
ijittle Rock, and Elder E. L. Hen
oon of the Mormon church.
Henry and Oscar Camp have
fieen lined each for selling
liquor at Paragon Id. The blind
tiger men, in various parts of the!
state, are getting it in the neck (
good and strong, and the day is
cot far distant when the blind
tiger will be an extinct animal in
Arkansas. _____________
In giving a forecast of the pro
vable candidates for state senator |
from the 29th district, we notice j
the Jackson County Herald omits I
the name of our distinguished
friend, Col. E. C. Waterman.
Colonel Waterman is going to lick
iiome fellow over this thing yet—
-and its not going to be The Journ
al, either.
The Sunday lid movement has I
1
.-struck Harrisburg, and the mayor
■of that town recently issued tx
proclamation warning all icecream !
parlors, cold drink stands, livery
stables, ice wagons, dray wagons,
electric light plants, telephone ex
changes, meat markets and all
other business houses of every de-!
ocription to close on Sunday. Now ,
talk about lids, that’s “a lid what I
mn a lid.”
A neighboring paper relates1
that one of those “business men” i
who think it is money wasted to
advertise, happened down at the
depot where a farmer was loading
■some goods he had ordered from
m catalogue house and out of curi
•ousity asked the farmer what he
§>aid for his goods and said he
«ould have sold them just as cheap.
“Is that so?” linked the farmer.
*‘l take the home paper and I
never saw your prices in it. The
fellows 1 bought these goods from
advertise. I am no mind reader.”
Now which of these fellows got
the best of that argument—the
fellow who sent away or the fel
low who failed to advertise his
goods? __
Editor Waterman of the Jack
son County Democrat is a candi
date for state senator down in his
district, While this paper is not
in the habit of “rubbing it in,”
we cannot refrain from mention
ing that Waterman ran for clerk
in Jackson county once and re
ceived something like 22 votes.—

that’s nothing. Why, down at
Newport last Friday and the Fri
day before, just after The Journal
got in there, there was a spot
around the Democrat office so hot
that all the hair was singed off the [
rats in the building,and Col. Water- ]
man’s brains got so warm they j
made his socks stink and he had
to have them washed.
(i RE ATEST LI V IN G LI A R
We say it honestly and candidly,
that man Waterman of the New
port Democrat can tell a lie with j
less compunction of conscience j
than any man we ever heard of.
He says that if George Taylor
was a Republican he never knew j
it, and tries to make it appear j
that Taylor never had charge of ■
the paper except once when Wat-1
ermaii was attending a meeting of
the press association.
Now, Waterman knows this is a
lie, and he knows that we know
it’s a lie.
He knows that during the sum
mer of lbOO, when there was a
strong tight being made on certain
of the Democratic nomines, he
went up to some summer resort in
the North and stayed away until
just a few days before the election.
He knows, too, that he left Geo.
Taylor in charge of the paper,
with instructions to publish noth
ing bearing upon the political
situation except at so much per
line.
lie knew at the time that Geo.
Taylor was a strong Republican, i
and when he says that he didn’t j
know Taylor’s politics, he plainly
convicts himself of either base ig
norance or downright and un
scrupulous lying, for Tayloi had
been in his employ for more than
a year.
The writer was connected with
Waterman’s paper occasionally in
difi'erent capacities, and we knew

that Taylor was a Republican.
But he attempts to discredit Taylor
by saying that he was only an em
ploye of the oflice, which is a fact,
but his abilitiy was fully equal,
and, in many respects, superior to
that of Waterman’s, and Water
man fully recognized this by fre
quenty taking extended vacations
and leaving Taylor in full control
of his-business.
The colonel denies printing
Judge Lippman's campaign paper,
but says it was printed in Searcy,
and says we know this. We don’t
know anything of the kind. But
we do know that its place of pub
lication was always a closely
guarded mystery and that a great
many people always believed that
it was printed in Waterman’s of
lice. Of course Waterman de
nies this, but he don't care for
lying about a little matter like that
so long as he got a good price for
doing the work. In fact he has
been known to lie about smaller
thing than that.

A BEAUTIFUL VERB.
!
At a party in upper Fifth ave
nue tiie other night there was an
interesting and highly amusing dis
cussion of the Carnegie discredited
spelling, says the New York Press.
A young blade discoursed eloquently
on parts of speech. A beautiful
young woman asked: “What part!
of speech am I lie answered I
instantly: “You are an abstract
noun. “I ! An abstract, nnnn sir I
Why am I not a verb?” “Because■
no one has ever yet been able to con- j
jugate 3'ou." (Great laughter and'
applause.) “Well.” she continued,
“I should like to be conjugated; can
you not conjugate me?” (Loud,
long and rapturous applause.) “No,
miss, I am reluctantly compelled to *
decline you. All single ladies must
be compelled to pass as nouns; and
they are abstract because they are
generally all sweetness and good
ness. ’ (Loud and continued ap
plause.)
NOT A “THANK YOU.”
“I never knew a woman who
| wasn't bound to have the last word
with you.”
“Unless it was in a street car and
you were to say: ‘Take my seat,
madam.’ ”—Philadelphia Ledger.
