THE NEWARK JOURNAL
O. P. CRAIG, Editor and publisher
The supreme court derides that
the .state must stand by its con
tracts. _
(iovenor Davis has lost out in
his fight on the brick contract.
It is a bad contract and should
have never been made. 1
It is said that the officials of the
steel trust are going to have a din
ner to cost $100 a plate. It must
be that they intend to have steak
and potatoes on the bill of fare.
The State Republican still in
sists that (iovernor Davis is afraid
to meet “Major" Myers on the
stump, but upon what it buses j
this conclusion we are unable to
say. ___________
We may be wrong, but it sounds
like very shallow democracy to us
to hear a man say he is a “Davis
democrat" an “anti- Davis demo
crat,’' or that he expects to go
fishing on election day. The
editor of The Journal is just a
plain old every day, dyed-in-the
wool democrat and expects to vote
and tight for the party nominees
just as long as we are able to push
a pencil. ___________
The republicans who count on
fooling the people in the coming
eompaign by asserting that Davis
is afraid to meet Harry Myers, or
any one else, on the stump, are
making the mistake of regarding
the average citizen as an easy
mark for a bunko game. The
people have long ago sized up the
republican situation in Arkansas. I
They know that if the republican
party should come into power in
Arkansas the state would suffer
untold injury. For instance just'
note what a squabble the few hun
gry pie-hunters of that party have!
gotten into over the few federal j
plums distributed in the state. |
I low do you suppose it would it'
would be if they were in control
of the state {
The decision of the supreme j
court in upholding the contracts
» ntt-ml into by the state through
i,s authorized agents is no sur
prise, Ji is the only right way
to do business and because the
Mate makt a had contract is no
reason why she should jump the
game, so to speak, and not carry
out her part of the contract.
There's no denying the fact that
1 lie, contract entered into between
the state and the Arkansas Brick
and Manufacturing (Y>. is a bad
contract, and it's worst feature
is that it holds for ten years. In
our opinion the worst thing Cto\
« rnor Davis ever did was to sign
this contract. No pica he can set

forth will ever satisfy our mind
to the contrary, for if he signed;
jt premeditatedly he evi-(
dently knew it was a bad contract.
On the other hand if he signed it
without first making' a careful and
critical examination of its contents
he is guilty of gross negligence
and cannot therefore be excused
on that ground. It is a bad tiling
any way you take it.

It is reported that a certain la
dy, living not far away, who was
grcviously tormented with a corn
on her toe, was advised by one of
her friends to annoint it with
phosphorus, which she did but

her husband before retiring thin

The Bustle Back in Style.
An exchange has the following
in regard to the bustle coming:
hack in style: "When the daily
toil is oyer and the £iiu is going !
down, you are ready then to read
the news that is going on in town, j
It' you miss the daily paper here’s j
a hint, ’twill make you smile;
perhaps you will find it on your i
daughter, for the bustle's back in j
style. When vou wash your lace
in soapsuds and you're looking
for a towel, while the soap is get
ting in your eyes, you start to
swear and howl ; wipe your face j
upon your sleeve and remember j
all the while, that the towel is
hard to locate since the bustle is
back iy style. Now there is no
use getting angry, and it does no
good to swear, if your Sui day
shirt is missing and you've noth j
ing clean to wear ; try your hard j
est to look pleasant, do your test j
to wear a smile, and remember
when you miss things, that the!
bustle is back in. sty le.
