WILL THE GAZETTE
COME CLEAN AND
or nrrrwn
*4 W *_4 4 » 4 .
The Arkansas Gazette says its
claim that metropolitan newspa
pers cannot be run without the
revenue from whiskey advertising
is an unmitgated falsehood.
This is at least one thing on
which we can heartily agree with
the Gazette, because all the decent
and self-respecting metropolitan
newspapers refuse to carry whis
key advertising.
So the Gazette stands self con
victed of the very worst form of
of common, low down, gutter
snipe lying when it attempts to
charge this paper with misrepre
i !
senting it in this matter. In addi-1
ditiou- to lyinK about
like a common cur dog, the Ga
zette publicly stultifies itself and
shows its utter lack of even com
mon gambler’s decency by continu
ing to publish whiskey advertising
after it has admitted that it is not
necessary for a newspaper to car
ry this class of questionable busi
ness.
To be decently consistent the
Gazette should either cut out its
whiskey advertising or change
front again and claim that it needs
the money.
For a newspaper that caters to
«Copyrl*ht. by McClurn Syndic*!* )
the better element of the citizen
ship of a state whose sentiment is
overwhelmingly against the salt
of whiskey, the Gazette has gotten
itself into a very akward and un
enviable attitude, and is more than
welcome to all the satisfaction it
can get out of its cheap attempt
to place this paper in the Annanias
:lass.
But truth will not down, and
neither will The Journal when it
knows it is right. The Gazetle
may lie glibly, fluently and vol
uminously but it cannot deny the
fact that it carries whiskey adver
tising. We happen to Know that
this fact has been and is the sub
ject of considerable unfavorable
:omment among the better and
more progressive element of the
state’s citizenship.
ine uazeue claims ro ue a state
paper and claims to stand for the
best interests of Arkansas, and
pet in face of the fact that the
sentiment of the better element of
the white citizenship of Arkansas
is practically unanimous against
the sale of whiskey, the Gazette
continues to aid, abet and encour
age the sale of whiskey.
Public indignation at the Ga
zette’s course has only been sup
pressed by the general impression,
given credence by the Gazette and
its own employes, that the Gazette
had to have the revenue from this
business in order to meet its heav”
rAtTi Vuis is a very poor
excuse for the crime against so
ciety of which the Gazette stands
self-convicted.
The sale of whiskey is outlawed
by the state because it is a detri
ment and a menace to society; its
use is forbidden by every church
because it damns men’s souls; its
use is forbidden by the largest
best and most successful business
institutions in America because il
incapacitates men for duty; its
use is forbidden by every frater
nal and charitable organization be
cause it destroys morals and maktt
men objects of charity; its sah
Making a Good j
Crop
Is a very important matter with the farmer.
You cannot make a good crop without good
tools to work with, so it is VERY IMPORTAN I
that you equip yourself w ith plenty of GOOD
TOOLS if you expect to farm successfully. No
man ever made a success on the farm who did
not equip himself with the necessary tools and
implements for doing good w ork.
<jj I have a complete line of the famous Moline
implements of all kinds, and it w ill pay you to
investigate the merits and the prices of these
implements. They are the latest improved,
are honestly built and are sold very reasonable.

NEWARK, ARKANSAS I
cannot be defended from any poim
of view; yet in the face of all this
and in a State where sentimeni
is overwhelmingly against the sah
| of whiskey, we find “the State’s
leading newspaper,” day after day
flaunting glaring whiskey adver
' tisements into the face of its read
I ers.
The Gazette has now admitted
; that it is not necessary for it to
carry whiskey advertising. Will il
have the decency to refuse to car
ry this business longer, or will il
continue to stultify itself and vio
late all rules of common decency
j by aiding and abetting the sale of
whiskey in a state where the peo
ple have, time and again, so over
whelmingly expressed themselves
i against it?
It is plainly up to the Gazette to
play the man or the mouse.

We people who live here and
| have investments in this commu
nity should do everything in our
power to promote the growth and
; welfare of Newark and the sur
rounding country. We should re
member that it is the stuff ship
ped out, rather than the stuff
shipped in, that brings prosperity
to a community. We need to get
together in a united effort to se
cure some small manufacturing
industries to aid in creating more

money into this community. There
are several we could get if we
would go after them in an organ
ized and systematic manner. What
are we going to do about it?

Here’s a good paragraph from
one of John H. Page’s weekly let
ters to the farmer: “Clear some
more land this summer, fall and
winter. Good land in the woods
has no earning capacity. Good
land in cultivation has. Don’t V<-en
- -iv vr
^'ou&and for range if it is tillable.
Put it in cultivation, and make
pastures for your stock, where
you can look after them and keep
them free from catching diseases
from stock on the range. More
than half the disease among hogs
comes from neglect and running
on the range.

When are we to get relief from
the daily paper that smells of the
mash-tub, and which comes into
our homes with attractive full
page advertisements of an outlaw
ed business conducted by crimi
1 nals in the interest of filthy lucre?
i —Hantist Advance.
The church papers lacked the
nerve to start the fight on “wet
journalism” in Arkansas, but The
Journal has started it and does
not propose to let up. Will the
church papers of Little Rock join
in and help clean up their own
backyard?
A man’s interest in and sympa
thy for his neighbors is a good in
dication of his character and a fair
estimate of his worth as a citizen.
We cannot live to ourselves and
the man that tries it is too selfish
to amount to much as a citizen.—

Dry weather, army worms and
croakers. The dry weather cannot
| be prevented, but a little Paris
green properly applied will kill
millions of army worms, and its a
pity it can’t be used on the croak
ers.
A. L. Kinney, mayor of Green
Forest, has been nominated for
governor of Arkansas by the Re
publicans. And after the Septem
ber election he will be ready to re
tire to the green forest.
Pity the poor quitter! Its hot
, and dry and the army worms are
j coming. Ain’t it awfuk
