THE SHORT LINE TO
“THE LAND OF FULFILLMENT**
KEEP A SHARP LOOKOUT
FOR THE TRICKSTER
A Few Timely Remarks and Com
ment on the Farmers’ Union
by Sam Curtis.
To The Newark Journal.
The Farmers’ Union as it has
started, along strictly business
lines, is a valuable institution, so
valuable that its members cannot
afford to experiment as they did
with the Wheel and Alliance,
with outside issues. 1 am triad to
see those articles coming out at
the present time on the Farmers’
Union, for the critical period is
at hand. We are not far from a
state campaign, and already there
are signs that the wily politicians
and political fakirs are trying t>
insinuate themselves into the far
mers' movement, f4ither to use it
or break it up. We may expect
in the near future to see all sorts
of attempts to draw the Farmers'
Union into the political arena.
And failing to accomplish his pur
pose, the political trickster will
circulate all kinds of ugly reports
for the purpose of causing the lay
members to become discouraged
with the Union. We may expect
to hear all kinds of reports about
the highest officials, state and
country, and all sorts of traps will
be <et to catch the unwary and
discourage him with the organiza
tion. There are traitors, but if
we will apply one test we will
come out all right. When ugly
reports come out and when they!
reach our ears just demand proof
and 1 believe it would not be un
wise for the officials to make it a
rule, when attempts of this kind
are made, to demand charges and
a trial and the utmost publicity.
Irul.y, the rainier .s Union is
not a political party and i believe
it will never be such. To engage!
in politics would be to divide our
forces, thereby diminishing our 1
strength and usefulness. Neither
do I like the term “business" as
applied to the order, for that car
ries with it the idea of selfishness
and contempt. But 1 consider our
order a fraternal one, in the high
est sense, and through the frater
nal system and spirit, are we to
achieve the objects sought. For
we aid, assist and protect each oth
er. Our objects, interests and
hopes are the same. No matter
what our political creed may be,we
are a band of farmers working the j
soil, and are only asking for the
portion we gain by honest toil.
I see in Brother Saylors’ letter,
stating the principles of the Far
BILIOUSNESS
: 'AND V
CONSTIPATION
CURED BY
THEDFORDS
BLACK-DRAUGHT
Because the liver is
neglected people suffer
■with constipation, biliousness,
headaches and fevers. Colds attack
the lungs and contagious diseases
take hold of the system. It is safe
to say that if the liver were always
kept in proper working order,
illness would oe almost unknown.
Thedford’s Black-Draught is so
successful in curing such sickness
because it is without a rival as a
liver regulator. This great family
medicine is not a strong and
drastic drug, but a mild and
healthful laxative that cures con
stipation and may be taken bv a
mere child without possible
harm.
The healthful action on the liver
cures biliousness. It has an in
vigorating effect on the kidneys.
Because the liver and kidneys do
not work regularly, the poisonous
acids along with the waste from
ti e bowels get back into the blood
and virulent contagion results.
Timely treatment with Thed
ford's Black-Draught removes the
dangers which lurk in constipation,
liver and kidney troubles, and will
positively forestall the inroads of
Bright’s disease, for which dis
ease in advanced stages there is
no cure. Ask your dealer for a
25c. package of Thedford’s Black
Draught.
mers' Union, where he says it is
based on the principles of equity
and justice and the Golden Rule.
Well, there are a good many ways
to apply the Golden Rule, i think
the Golden Rule of today is not
the Golden Rule that the Bible
speaks of, or at least there is quite
a difference between them. The
Bible speaks of the Golden Rule
in this way; “Do unto others as
you would have them do unto
you.” But it is practiced differ
ently to day. 1 find that the Gold
en Rule of today is “Do others,be
fore they have a chance to do
you.”
But 1 hope this will not be the
way it will work in the Union.
We have had a hard ti^rlit for our
existence, and probably the hard
est we will ever have. Let us
shed a tear of joy as we think of
the Supreme Ruler of the Universe!
bestowing His power in giving us
the Farmers’ Union—a band of
brothers who will be marching to
the beat of the drum for ages to
come. Such gratifying words
from high officials of the Union,
reminds me of the Irishman, as he
spoke of good old apple brandy.
He said the more he drank the
better he felt. The more l study
the principles of the Union, the
better 1 like it. May it grow and
spread its teachings until every
farmer shall unite. We think the
farmers are fully aware that all of
our members are not angels, and
we also think that they can see a
bug under the political chip,
when any politician falls suddenly
in love with our order.
Hoping this may meet the ap
proval of every one, 1 remain, as
ever, Sam Curtis.

A GOOD CITIZEN.
A Missouri editor gives the fol
lowing description of a good citi
zen: A good citizen is a man who
takes pride in his home town, pays
his honest debts, s(>eaks well of
his neighbors, takes his home pa-i
per and pays for it, who doesn’t ;
squeeze every twenty-live cent
piece until the agonized scream of
the eagle can be. neard for a mile.
He will measure twelve inches to
the foot every way, will bathe
and change his shirt once a week,
and will see that the woman he
loves does not have to use a hedge
fence for a clothes line or break
up ash barrels for fuel.

THE MOSQUITO AND
THE YELLOW FEVER
Views of Dr. E. H. Stephenson, Prom
inent Fort Smith Physician, on
the Theory of Contagion.
I>r. E, II. Stephenson of Fort
Smith, former president of the
Arkansas Eclectic Medical Associ
ation, contributes the following
aritcle to the Fort Smith Times on
the yellow fever-mosquito theory:
“The Associated Press has her
alded to the world the very pretty
theory, but broad assertion of Dr.
White, that yellow fever can f>e
transmitted ‘only through* the
mischievous little hypodermic beak:
of ‘the mosquitoes,’ That this i«?
a fruitful source of disease inocu
lation the thoughtful will not de
ny. The vicious ‘house fly’ by
heavy tramping on diseased or
putrefactive surfaces may fly to
the lips or traumatic surface of
some unsuspecting victim, and by
his intrusion leave the germs of a
deadly infection. Having prac
ticed medicine in the vicinity of
Memphis, Tenn., during the rav
ages of yellow fever in lS7s, and
when I had to treat a few cases
who were refugeeing, some in
stances of the introduction of the
fever through other media than,
this annoying insect were brought
prominently to my attention, es
tablishing the fact. In 1S78 two
young ladies residing in a small
town about twenty miles out of
the city, were preparing to leave
home for school in the early fall
before the frost had put an end to
the germ life of the devastating
plague. They had a package of
goods shipped them from Mem
phis and when opening the pack
age invited a young lady friend
near by to inspect the goods with
them. All three developed the
fever in six or eight days, which
resulted fatally in each case. No
fever had existed in or nearer that
neighborhood than Memphis the
entire season.
some farmers residing twenty
five miles from Memphis, in Mar
shall county, Miss., sent to the
infected city for cotton bagging:
in the early fall of 1n79, before
the welcome and long expected
frost had done certain execution
to yellow Jack. The consignment
was hauled out six miles from the
station on a farm and stored in an
upper room of a farm house.
Within ten days there were three
well-defined cases of yellow fever
in the house, two of which suc
cumbed. No fever had existed in
this locality during the entire sea
son or any previous yellow fever
year. It will be well to avoid
consignments of freight from New
Orleans, the medico commercial
circulars of Dr. White and the
business men of that infected city
notwithstanding. Carelessness in
the trade vicinity of Memphsi in
this one matter cost many lives in
1878-79. In this connection one
has but to cast his eye up the al
leys as he drives along our littered
streets to be convinced that we ar«
tolerating too much filth from
which under the influence of heat
and moisture emanate noxious gas
ses which we breathe hourly and
expect to keep in good health.
This article is imposed upon your
readers for the purpose of empha
sizing the necessity of care in pro
tecting public health and the lives
of our citizens. We may not re
ceive a mosquito with his hypo
dermic tilled with yellow fever
germs in our bananas, but it might
be a drop of sweat soked into the
fruit from the brow of an infected,
laborer who carried them from the
boat, packed them or loaded then*
into the car.”
