FRIDAY, JANUARY- 23. 1903
At noon Tuesday the general
assembly elected James 1*. Clarke
United States senator to succeed
Senator James K. Jones. The
vote was 77 for Clarke and 50 for j
Jones. ___________
Editor N. G. Gonzales, of the
Columbia (S. C.) State, who was
shot by Lieutenant Governor Jas.
H. Tilman, died Monday at noon.
This seems to be a ease of premed- j
itated, cold-blooded murder and
Tilman has brought shame and hu
miliation upon his family and his
state, and has the gallows staring
him in the face.
The bill (No. Is) introduced in
the house by .Mr. Jacobs, requir
ing candidate's for office to file an
itemized account of their expenses
with the county clerk, is a good
measure. Many states have a sim
ilar law. If passed, this measure'
will purify politics to a certain ex- i
tent, and some law that will add to
the purity of Arkansas politics is
badly needed.
* The Journal has heed favored
with copies of the' Daily Hee, re
cently launched at Batesville by
Brother \Y. \\ . Powell, and it is
no iell flattery when we say it i,
the be^t daily published in this part
of the state. It seems that the Bee
is on the highway to sucei'ss, and,
if we take improvements as an in
dication of prosperity, our esteem
ed contemporary is prospe'ring to
an extemt far beyond the most t'\- 1
pectant dreams of its preegressive
editor.
The walking sick, what
a crowd of them there are:
Persons who are thin and
weak but not sick enough
to go to bed. i
“Chronic cases” that’s
what the doctors call them,
which in common English '
means—long sickness.
To stop the continued :
loss' yOf 4flcsh they need
Scott'$ Hmulsion. For the
feeling of weakness they
peed Scott’s Emulsion.
' It makes new flesh and
gives new life to the weak
system.
Scott’s Emulsion gets
thin and weak person out ,
of the rut. It mak s
rich blood, strengthen ; die <
nerves and gives appetite '
for ordinary food.
Scott’s Emulsion can be; ,
I ikc*n as long as sir km ;s
lasts and dev good all the
time. (
There’s new strength (
and flesh in every dose.

to you a few

“1 have used Aver’s Hair Vigor
for thirty years, it is elegant for
a hair dressing and for keeping the
hair from splitting at the ends.”—
J. A. Gruenenfelder.Grantfork, III.
Hair-spiitfing splits
friendships. If the hair
splitting is done on your
own head, it loses friends
fo$ you, for every hair of
your head is a friend.
Ayer’s Hair Vigor in
advance will prevent the
splitting. If the splitting
has begun, it will stop it.

“lie assails the contract of the
Arkansas Brick Manufacturing
Company. He says it is a bad one:
and yet he is the only member of
the present board who had any
thing to do with the making of it.
He, as he now admits, signed it,
though he at one time persistently
denied it. Can truth come from
such a source? The old saying is,
out of nothing, nothing comes.'
We can not therefore justly expect
I much truth from a make-up in
| which there is none.
“But I have not now time to
follow out in detail his misstate
| ments. Suffice it to say that those
with reference to the penitentiary
management, and the conduct of
: the various members of the board,
hire, with rare exception, if any,
untrue.
“For the present 1 leave the
matter, feeling deep regret that
we have not a man for governor,
i one to whom a fair regard for
truth might justify the application
of milder terms than 1 have been
forced to employ.”

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 La Grippe, or Ca
tarrh. They die of the after effects.
These diseases all weaken, and to a
weakened body come Hocking a host of
diseases that fasten on weak lungs,
heart, 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 of
the blood enabling the system not only
to ward off disease, but to fight it after
it has obtained a foot
hold.
& Or. HARTER’S
^ IRON TONIC
is just the remedy needed, as it sup
plies the blood directly with the iron it
requires to combat Colds or La Grippe.
Take it before, during, or after. If
taken in time, it will prevent; if taken
during, it will shorten the course ; if
taken after, it will prevent all bad after
effects.
Women are especially benefited by
Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic, as they seem to
Buffer front the weakness of Colds and
La Grippe longer than men, and they
are part icularly susceptible to the action
of a blood builder such as this is.
