tention to the fact that the Repub
licans in the State of Arkansas are
exceedingly active in this cam
paign and are using every effort to
get out the full Republican vote.
They are especially active, in view
of the fact that a president will be
elected two years from now, and
that whatever increase may be
made in the Republican vote in
this and other southern states will
lend encouragement to the Repub
licans of the north and east and
throughout the doubtful states.
It is eqxially important to the Dem
ocrats that our party poll a strong
vote for the Democratic nominees
from governor to constable. There
is no doubt or question about the
result of the election, but it is well
for the Democrats to always be
vigilant and active on the day of
the election and not only to hold the
strength of the party up to its past
record, but at each successive elec
tion to try to increase the Demo
cratic majority. A big Democrat
ic majority at the September elec
tion will be worth thousands of
votes to the Democratic party in
the election of a president two
years from now, by giving encour
agement, in consequence, to the
Democrats in close states in the
north and west where the fiercest
political battles are waged. Iu
view of these facts, we would urge
each individual Democrat to lay
aside all else on the day of the
election and go to the polls, and
also not be content with simply
voting the democratic ticket, but
to take enough intesest iu party
affairs to urge neighbors and
friends to go to the election.
The Democratic nominee forGov

tegrity, and stands on a plattorm
which, we believe, will commend
itself to every Democrat in the
State, and we appeal to all persons
who believe in Democratic princi
ples and in the supremacy of the
Democratic party in this State, to
manifest that patriotism and that
| sense of appreciation of the past
benefits that have been derived
from the Democratic goverment in
this State, to take an active in
terest in the election on September
3rd, and to lend every possible
assistance to swelling the Demo
cratic majority up to the highest
possible point. We confidently
believe that a Democratic victory,
with a majority of at least sixty
thousand, will follow the efforts of
the nominee for Governor and
those who are assisting him in the
campaign; and nothing but inac
tivity upon the part of individual
Democrats can disappoint them.
If the Democrats turn out in full
force on the 3rd. of September,
the Democratic majority can easily
reach seventy-five thousand. Let
us hope that by all means Demo
crats will not be unmindful of
their duty on the day of the elec
tion. By order of the commitee.

How quickly can you tell a live
town from a dead one by simply
looking over its newspaper. A
poor skim milk sort of a news-pa
per with a few small advertise
ments, and those looking as though
they were run at half price, betok
en a dead town just' as sure as a
corpse indicates a funeral, while a
good, lively, well-printed news-pa
per, filled with good, fresh ads,
and displayed locals, shows that
the town is prospering and thriv
ing. It never fails.
The old man may not recall all
the experiences, all the struggles
and triumphs of his early man
hood, but every feature of his
childhood home, every little play
house that he helped his sister to
build, is a photograph on his
heart’s tablets and can never fade
away. Perhaps the golden light
of eternity will not dim the bright
ness of that picture. What else
the heart may forget, it cannot for
get the place of its birth, it can
not forget the little broken cart,
the sled and the kite, the sister’s
fond caress, the brother’s gener
ous aid, the father's counsel, the
mother’s anxious prayers.
Every Democrat should carry
his poll-tax receipt to the election
on Monday, September, 3rd., and
vote the De mocratic ticket from
the lowest officer to the highest.
People who are charged with a
good supply of bad whiskey will
do things which they would shun
to do in their sane moments as
they would to put their hands into
the burning fire. Men are trans
formed from respectable citizens
into demons and will commit dep
redations that they will regret all
their lives and the disgrace of
which will follow them as long as
life lasts. Why will they so far
lose all self respect as to give them
selves over to the demon drink?
A newspaper is in no sense a
child of charity. It earns twice
over every dollar it receives, and
it is second to no enterprize in con
tributing to the upbuilding of a
community. Its patrons reap far
more benefits from its pages than
its publishers, and in calling for
the support of the community in
which it is published, it asks for no
more than in all fairness belongs to
it, though generally it receives
less. Patronize and help your pa
per as you would any other enter
prise because it helps you, and not
as an act of charity.
a small Kansas Doy was once
called in to view his new horn ba
by brother. He looked it over
with dissatisfaction, and finally
asked: “Mamma, where did this
thing come from?” “An angel
brought it Jimmie.” “Wuz you
awake when he came?” “Certain
ly Jimmie.” “Well, then, mam
ma, all that I have got to say, is
that you are dead easy. I’d like
to see any old angel put off such a
looking thing on me. But I reck
on we are stuck unless I kin work
Johnny Green to trade it sight-un
seen for one of his spotted pups.”
A sad accident occurred at
Tupelo, Saturday, which resulted
in the death of Jack L. Frazier.
The cause of same was as follows:
The Tupelo base-ball club crossed
bats with another ball team and
Mr. Frazier was playing with the
Tupelo line-up, which were in the
field when the accident took place.
Mr. Frazier and another player
were stationed in the field when a
high fly was knocked. Both men
saw the ball and knew that to
catch same before it hit the ground
would require some fast running,
and each thinking it his duty to
get the ball began running for it.
Neither one of the men knew of
the others approach and when the
ball was in about 10 feet of the
ground the men ran against each
other. Mr. Frazier was struck
just over his heart by the other
player’s elbow. He called for a
player to take his place, saying
that he was hurt in the breast. A
doctor was sent for, but before 50
minutes had elapsed, the man was
dead. \

NOTICE
After July, 20th, I will work for
cash only, as cost of material and
labor are continually advancing
and prices are too low to do a cred
it business.
I find that many times accounts
that I considered good are by reas
on in changes of fortune of some
customers, owing me are rendered
unvaluable. I have found that 1
am banking on good health and
good business ability, honesty and
good luck of a great many people
who’s account I carry on my book
and you will agree with me that in
so doing I am taking big chance
in my business.
I find that many times it cost
me more time and expense to col
lect acc’ts as to do the work. So I
adopted the plan of doing a cash
business, which will be an advant
age to my customers as well as my
self. I ask the continuance of
your pati-onage as well as to share
the benefit of doing business on a
cash basis. Thanking you for
your past favors, I am,
Yours Truly,

“Times are hard” to be sure,
