It’s Quality
That Counts
You don’t buy a wagon often,
and when you buy you want
one that will give you full val
ue for the money you invest.
The Birdsell Wagons
are the best made. They are
made for hard service and are
worth the money. Come and
look them over and get prices.

EXPLANATIONS NEEDED
I --
i The Walnut Ridge Times de
i nies that it is lined up with the
i liquor crowd. So does Joe Robin
i son, and so does Jeff Davis,
i But we challenge the Times to
i name a single liquor man in the
i state who is not supporting Joe
Robinson and Jeff Davis.
Robinson and Davis both say
the present liquor laws are good
enough— and so do the liquor
i men.
Robinson and Davis say they
doubt the wisdom of state-wide
prohibition—and so do the liquor
men.
The Times is enthusiastically
supporting Joe Robinson and Jeff
Davis—and so are the liquor men.
Every time you find a liquor
man, you find a Joe Robinson and
a Jeff Davis man.
Now if the Times can explain
how it can support the candidates
! the liquor men want elected, and
| still not be lined up with the
I liquor crowd, it might be able to
! explain how Judas Iscariot was a
trueChristian; how Benedict Arnold
was a great patriot; and it might
also be able to “explain” to the
Batesville Guard who the “gang”
jis.
W hen Mr. Robinson, the Times’
patron saint, spoke in Newark
Tuesday night, he attempted a
very flowery straddle of the liquor
| question, which he has recently
begun doing in all communities
where he is informed that there is
a strong temperance sentiment,
and is thereby probably misleading
a good many people. But in the
i hotel lobby, after the speaking, he
plainly made his position known,
by declaring that prohibition was
: a failure and that a state-wide law
could not be enforced. His public
declaration was, in substance, that
he was willing for the people to
II vote on the question, and that if
they enacted a state-wide law, he
could enforce it better than Gov
ernor Donaghey. But he failed
to show, and we challenge the
Times to show, where Donaghey
has ever shown any favors to the
liquor people. It is a well-known
and indisputable fact that the
whisKey people have more respect
for the law in Arkansas today than
they ever had, because they know
they can expect nothing from
| Donaghey, for the reason that he
has always absolutely refused to
grant a pardon to any man for
violating the liquor laws.
Will the Times attempt
to deny that Donaghey has creat
ed a respect for law hitherto un
known among the liquor men of
the state?
If Robinson were elected, be
lieving, as he does, that the law
• could not be enforced, and the
| liquor people well knowing his at
titude upon the matter, who is
going to be silly enough to be
lieve that he could or would en
force a state-wide prohibition law
better than Donaghey, who has
already an established reputation
for refusing clemency to the man
who violates the liquor laws?
If there is a man in the state

who believes such rot as that, his
friends should lose no time in
having him bored for the simples.
The Journal has no desire to
wrongfully place the Times in the
line-up writh the liquor gang—we
I are sorry to see any reputable
' man or newspaper line up with
that gang. Of course if a man
wants to line up with them, that’s
his business; this is a free country j
and he has a right to do so. He |
also has the right to be a boozer,
if he so desires, and the further
right to fill a drunkard’s grave.
Hut any thinking man will ad
mit that the evils resultant from
the sale and consumption of liquor
so far outwreigh any possible good
that might result therefrom that
it would be far better for man
j kind generally if intoxicating
liquor could be entirely wiped out
of existence.
It is not a question of what the
Times HAS done; its what it is do
ing now. And if the Times is
lined up with the crowd that
wants to continue to legalize the
I liquor business in Arkansas, we
presume it has done so of its own
free will, ajid it should therefore
not kick when asked to stand
i hitched at the rack it has chosen
| for itself. _
TWO KINDS OF ROADS
There has been quite a good
deal of talk lately about the roads
I —mostly about bad roads, for
that is about the only kind we
have had in this county for several
! weeks.
Our roads seem to be a good
deal like the roof on the squatter’s
cabin- in the summer they don’t
need fixing, and in winter we can’t
I fix them.
But we believe the people have
been taught a lesson this winter
with regard to roads that they
will not soon forget, and we be
j lieve when the proper time comes
they are going to put forth an ef
fort that will result in the building
of roads that will be a credit to
j our county.
We remember to have noticed
recently that it has been shown
that to carry a ton one mile at sea
costs one-tenth of a cent; by rail
way, one cent. To haul a ton
! over good roads costs seven cents
; a mile; over ordinary' roods 25
cents a mile. The mud lax, the
excess cost you pay your bad
roads, therefore amounts to 18
cents a mile per ton.
But there are many miles of
road in Independence county that
it is worth a dollar a mile per ton
to haul over this winter. This
kind of roads is a serious draw
back and a heavy tax upon any
community.
Wrhich kind of roads have you
in your neighborhood—the kind
that taxes the community, or the
kind that helps?
And if you have only the kind
that taxes, whose fault is it?
Little Rock and Pine Bluff are
both at work on the promotion of
a packing house, and L. A. Mark
ham, Iron Mountain agricultural
commissioner, who is holding
farmers institutes over the state,
says he finds the farmers ready
and anxious for the development
of this new industry. The estab
lishment of a packing hoi^se at
some point in the state would
prove very beneficial to the
farmers, and it is to be hoped that
the movement will prove success
Religon is only another word for
the right use of a man’s self. If
a man has a real, sincere desire to
live a clean, honorable life—a life
that is helpful to humanity, in
that it inculcates justice, mercy
and benevolence toward men, and
reverence toward God—shall a
man who has lived such a life be
doomed because he didn’t chew
his cud standing on his left foot,
or because the parson let his knee
stick out when he soused him in
the creek? ___________

A Reader Cures His
Constipation—Try it Free
Simple way for any family to retain the good health of all its members
The editors of "Health Hints" and
"Questions and Answers" have one ques
tion that is put to them more often titan
any other, and which, strangely enough,
they find the most difficult to answer.
That is "How can I cure my constipa
tilDr Caldwell, an eminent specialist In
diseases of the stomach, liver and bowels
has looked the whole field over, has prac
tised the specialty for forty years and is
convinced that the ingredients contained in
what is called Dr. Caldwell s Syrup Pepsin
has the best claim to attention from con
stipated people.
Its success in the cure of stubborn con
stipation has done much to displace the
use of salts, waters, strong cathartics
and such things. Syrup Pepsin, by train
ing the stomach and bowel muscles to
again do their work naturally, and with
Its tonic Ingredients strengthening the
nerves, brings about a lasting cure.

gation. He has specialized in stomach

Macon, Ga., is beginning to
make preparations for entertain
ing the Confederate Re-union in
May, and says she expects to give
| the old boys a welcome they will
1 remember until the last roll call.
If Macon’s glad hand thrills and
fills the old boys with more good
fellowship than they enjoyed at
Little Rock last May, then Macon
can lay claim to having discovered
the magic touch.
The Political Equality League,
' organized in Little Rock some
time ago for the purpose of push
ing the movement for womans
suffrage in Arkansas, will immed
iately begin an active campaign.
It is predicted that Kansas and
Missouri will be the next states to
adopt equal suffrage, and friends
of the movement in the state do
not want Arkansas to be far be
hind.
Within a year the great Confed
erate Memorial Institute in Rich
mond will be completed. The
building will be unique among the
institutions of the world. No
where else is there a structure
reared to the memory of a lost
cause in a country where both
sections represented in a terrible
war are living in greater harmony
than before the war occurred.

Congressman Robinson is running

At any rate, Col Harvey’s paper
has received quite a lot of adver
tising from the Wilson incident
