Congress will soon adjourn, then
the republicans can take nip their
familiar howl against the trusts.
The Cotton Plant Courier pub
lishes the startling information
that Aaron Burr is dead. Really,
this is a surprise.
The Little Rock Advertiser is h
fearless expounder of truth and
never hesitates to express its opin
ion on matters of public interest.
It is the only newspaper in Little
Rock that isn't the paid organ ol
some clique, and we a linin' it toi
the candid and fearless manner ii
which it prints its honest opinion
on public questions.
The Little Rock Gazette pub
lished what it called a picture oi
Senator John A. Hinkle last l ues
day, but if we were Senator 11 in
kle we would sue the Gazette fat
slander. The picture doesn't loul
anymore like Senator Hinkle tlmi
we do; and we know if we shook
try to palm ot! one of our ok
tintypes as a picture of Mr. Ilia
kle he'd get ns mad as a wet hen.
“n. We have no doubt but that Gov
ernor Davis would havi approver
the newspaper bill passed b\ thr
legislature if the Gazette am
Democrat had been friendl.v to him
The Democrat has always fought
Davis and the Gazette sunvtimes
says things he does not like, It
they had been Davis papers then
is no doubt but that He would have
signed the bill, but, at an,\ rate
he did the proper tiling in vetoing
it, for the bill is nothing short o!
an outrage on the taxpayers, of thr
state, and the fact that the Dill has
been passed by previous sessions
of the legislature and approved b.\
LOOK OUT
For Colds—La Grippe!
Protect yourself, and don’t trust to
*"* ' Providence. Considering the harm
done, “neglect” before and after taking
a cold is a physical crime. You may
prevent a cold, or, if too late, you can
insure yourself against the “after ef
ects,” for there is the greatest danger,
by using Dr. Harter’s Iron Tonic. Few
die from Colds, or I>a Grippe, or Ca
tarrh. They die of the after effects.
These diseases all weaken, and to a
weakened body come flocking a host oi
Oisojisea that fasten on weak lungs,
' *£5&rt, stomach, kidneys, and other
weak parts that we seldom think of.
The easiest and best thing to do is to
fortify the system so that you will not
catch cold, but if too late to do that,
then you must see that no lasting in
jury is. done. Medical authorities all
agree that iron is the fighting element ol
the blood enabling the system not only
to ward off disease, but to fight it after
is iust the remedy needed, as it sup
pli* the blood directly with the iron it
requires to combat Colds or Da Grippe,
Take it before, during, or after. Ii
„ taken in time, it will prevent; if taken
during, it will shorten the course ; ii
taken after, it will prevent all bad after
effects.
Women are especially benefited by
Dr. Harter’s Iron Tonic, as they seem tc
guffer from the weakness of Colds auc
La Grippe longer than men, and they
are particularly susceptible to the actioi

tlu> governor, is no reason why
this practice of virtually throwing
awa.v $10,000 of the peoples’
money should be continued. It is

j and must he stopped sooner or
later; and the sooner the better.
Attorney General Murphy has
secured the use of the Capital
theater and was billed for an ad
dress last night on matters pertain
ing to the charges made by Gover
nor Davis in his message to the
general assembly. The entire j
general assembly has been invited j
and we shall not be surprised to
hear that Mr. Murphy made the
governor’s message look like
thirty cents.
The school boys of Melbourne!
have organized what they term an
’’Arkansas Legislature’’ and hold
sessions in the court house. The j
Register says that the talent dis
played would make some of the!
law-makers ashamed of themselves.
We object to this statement on ;
the ground that the members of
the legislature are strangers to]
1 shame; they don't know the mean*
j ing of the word.

Davis in vetoing the infamous bill
passed by the legislature approp

papers and stamps for members of
the legislature. There was never
a greater outrage, perpetrated on
the people of the state than this
1 infamous newspaper and stamp

| glaring, the bill was passed over
the governor's veto. At the next '

“ I had a had cough for six
weeks and could find no relief

cured me.”
L. Hawn, Newington, Ont.
Neglected colds always
lead to something serious.
They run into chronic
bronchitis, pneumonia,
asthma, or consumption.
Don’t wait, but take
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral
just as soon as your cough
begins. A few doses will
cure you then.

The matter of feed is of
tremendous importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his cows to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children ?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia ?
Scott’s Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes llcsh, blood and muscle,
tnc ymc ana .loaa maKC oone
and brain. It is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.
