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.

JOHN JT. HARTIN’S
Newark
Arkansas
The Newark Journal
PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY
O. F. Craig. Editor
Entered at the post otlicc at Newark,
Arkansas, as second class mail matter
BAD CASE OF BELLYACHE
We notice that the Batesville
Guard has been suffering excruci
ating pains for several weeks from
a severe attack of T.-J. bellyache.
The attack shows simptoms of
developing into a chronic case, and
in fact the Guard has had it so
long that it emits an odor similar
to that of a public depository
whose patrons were suffering from
a severe attack of cholera-morbus
superinduced by an overfeed of
liinberger cheese and underdone
cabbage.
The Journal is not sufficiently
acquainted with theTumer-Jacob
son bill to giye it our unqualified
indorsement, but we know se.veral
persons whom we believe to be
nearly as well informed, fully as
altruistic and about as patriotic as
the editor of the Guard, who pro
fess to believe that the T.-J. bill is
a pretty good thing, and that it
would be quite an improvement
over the present system of taxa
tion.
But the real milk in the cocoa
nut is that the Guard hates Gov.
Donaghey worse than the devil
hates holy water. Donaghey is
largely responsible for the T.-J.
bill and gives it his indorsement.
The Guard, believing that the bill
will prove unpopular, attempts to
use it as a club to beat Donaghey
over the head with. That is the
whole secret of the Guard’s oppo
sition to the T.-J. bill, and explains
why the Guard has the bellyache
everytime it thinks of the T.-J.
bill. In other words, the Guard’s
T.-J. bellyache is in fact only a de
sire to unload on Donaghey.
The bill will be referred to the
people for their approval, and so
far as The Journal has been able
to ascertain, we believe the people
are fully capable of making up
their mind as the merits or demer
its of the measure without having
to ask advice from either The
Journal or the Guard. At any
rate we are willing to trust them
and shall not attempt to coerce
public sentiment either for or
against the bill.
Two years ago the Guard pur
sued the same tactics in fighting
the governor, and loudly proclaim
ed that Mr. Kavanaugh would
sweep the state. When the re
turns were in, Mr. Kavanaugh had
one little lonesome county to his
credit, and even lost his home
ward in Little Rock.
The Guard is very unreliable as
a political bell-wether and the peo
ple of Independence county long
ago learned that it is better not to
put too much confidence in the
opinions expressed by it.
“The newspaper is a wonderful
civilizer. The press puts the peo
ple to thinking; furnishes facts. It
moulds public opinion. It records
history. It disseminates intelligence
It arouses the sleeping conscience
! of the people. It reveals the signs
i of the times. It unites the ends of
: the earth. It trims society and ex
poses coruption. No one thing has
done more to usher in the day of
God’s resplendent light than the
j honorable, reliable newspapers of!
the world.” The foregoing is the
opinion of Rev. P. C. Fletcher, a
prominent minister of Little Rock,
as expressed by him in a sermon
last Sunday.
—
Drainage sometimes is possible
at comparatively small expense
and a great deal of it is now being
done in Arkansas, but there are
yet vast areas in this state which
no one is making any effort to de
velop. The time is coming when
these marsh lands will be in de
mand. It is a simpler and cheaper
; matter to drain them than it is to
; irrigate the desert lands of the
West. People are learning this
slowly, but surely, neverthless, and
the time is coming when there
will be no swamp lands in Arkan
i sas they will all be drained and
i in cultivation.
A religious debate between By
num Black, Christian,and Ben M.
Bogard, Bapist, is billed to happen
at Newark some time next month.
—Sharp County Record.
A “religious” debate,did you say?
—Pocahontas Star Herald.
Sure. Didn’t think it was going
to be a cuttin-up affair, did you?
—Sharp County Record.
Ah, shut up and tend to your
own knittin. If we folks of New
ark want to peel each other’s knots
for Christ’s sake, let us alone.
Don’t the Bible say that it is man’s
chief business to sarve the Lord,
and that when your neighbor
kicks you in the slats you should
immediately biff him on the right
cheek?
Here is a good thought from
Farm and Ranch for the farmers:
“The best way to fight cotton
speculators is to produce every
thing possible to run the farm and
produce as little cotton as you can.
Why plant a large crop of cotton
when cotton doesn’t pay? Reduce
the acreage. If you want to pro
duce paying crops plant food pro
ducts. Even the cotton specula
tors must have food crops.”
It has been suggested that an
advisory vote for President be
taken in the Democratic primary
to be held in March, by placing the
names of Wilson, Harmon, Clark
and others, on the ballot. The
J ournal knows of no better meth
od of getting the sentiment of the
state as to its choice for the Dem
ocratic Presidential nomination,
and we think the suggestion a
good one.
Gen. W. K. Surridge, ex-sheriff
of Lawrence county, has announ
ced as a candidate for commission
er of mines, manufacture and ag
riculture, to succeed Clay Sloan,
who will not be a candidate for
re-election. Gen. Surridge is a live
booster for a Greater and Better
Arkansas —and that’s one of the
chief qualifications for this office.

a child's remedy should be. though It Is
a good laxative for the whole family
because it is effective at all ages. It
Is simply not dynamic like salts, pills

The
Telephone
Don’t add to your troubles
the inconvenience of doing
without a Telephone.
There is no department of
business, professional or in
dustrial life in which it is not
an essential part.
No community, however
small, can enjoy the full ad
vantages of modern life with
out including the Telephone.
By its use to the needs of
humanity it has proved its
claims to rank as one of the
necessaries of life.
The farmer who wants to
make his farm more profit
able and life more pleasant
for his family should have a
Telephone in his home.
