FRIDAY, JULY 1*2, 1900
“All things come to him who
waits’’—provided he hustles while
lie waits. ____________
11 is estimated that by the first
of August the general revenue
fund of the state treasury will con
tain over $300,000, of which
amount over $200,000 will be paid
by the various tax collectors of the
state.
The fruit growers of the state
are reaping a rich harvest this
season. The crop of all kinds of
fruit seems to be good, and is
•being marketed at unusually good
prices. f

Butt, the boodler, who has dis
graced himself, hj| family and the
state of Arkansas, slapped a news
paper man in the face up at Eure
ka Springs the other day. We
suppose that since his liberation
from the penitentiary he thinks i
he must do something to win some
cheap notoriety.
Thirty-seven men, women and
children were killed, and 2,15‘2
crippled, lacerated or burned, in 1
celebrating the Fourth of July in ,
the United States. There’s no
doubt of it; we are a patriotic
people. _______________
i The town of Lonoke, which is
about the same size of Newark,
i is said to have three miles of con
crete sidewalks. Other towns are
forging to the front, and unless
we wake up and get a move on,
I Newark is going to fall in right at
I the tail end of the procession.
Farm lands in the United States
have risen in value more than MS
per cent since 1900, sa.vs the New
York Sun. This is the average
rise for the whole country. Cot
ton land shows the greatest in
crease, amounting to 48 per cent.
Hay and grain land advanced 35
per cent, and stock farms 34 per
cent. / ____________
GOOD FOR COTTER
The efforts of the good people at!
Cotter to clean out the jpints and
get the town on a higher plane of
morality is bearing fruit, as is
shown by the following, from the
Cotter Courier of last week:
“The joint known as the ‘Blue
Goose’ ney the depot, run by ,J. |
Hardridge, was put out of busi
ness last Saturday. Hartidge was
arrested and taken before the
| mayor charged on nearly a dozen j
counts. He was fined a total of j
$950, released upon payment of
$50 and costs, collection of the i
balance being deferred during
good behavior. He took an oath
to quit the businesss and obey the
law.”
WATERMAN’S DEMOCRACY
Brother Waterman of the New
port Democrat makes the plea
that he lias been a good friend to
the editor of this paper, and that
we should keep quiet and say
nothing about him or his politics.
I We readily admit the bond of
: friendship, but have we not been
as good a friend to Waterman and
! his paper as he has been to us ?
I Ask any man in the north half of
| Jackson county this question and
‘ see what his answer will be. There
i is no man who places a higher esti
mate upon the value of friendship
than we do, but this does not deter
us from criticising our friends
when their conduct makes them a
lit subject for criticism.
Brother Waterman says it is a
matter of history that he has edited
four Democratic newpapers dur
ing the ‘2b years of his journalistic
career. But he does not say how

many republican and independent
papers lie has edited,
Is it not also a matter of history
that during the campaign a few
years ago, when perhaps the hard
est fight in the history of Jackson
county was being waged upon a
part of the ticket, Brother Water
man left his paper in the hands of
an out-and-out Republican and
went off on an extended vacation
“for the benefit of his health?”
Is it not also a matter of history
that when Judge Lippman was
once making one of his memorable
onslaughts upon the party in an
effort to break the lines and get
himself into office, that Brother
Waterman clandestinely edited
_«
UUU pu I7UOIIV.V* l* vutlipuii^u
for Judge Lippman?
Of course Brother Waterman
may have repented of all this and
may now be a Democrat—we hope
he is—but the man who has re
peatedly dodged when his help and
influence was most needed, should
not be so quick to demand a medal
for heroism.
A man cannot be a good Deruo
crat one day and a good Republi- j
can the next. It requires some
service upon his part, and, in poli
tics, as well any other sphere of
useful effort, the man who allows
his courage to fail him at the crit
ical moment when his services are
most needed, is not entitled to any
great degree of credit. It is the
man who stands up bravely in the

face of opposition and helps to
snatch victory from defeat that is j
entitled to be called a good follow- '
er of the cause he professes to be- j
lives in, whether that cause be
politics, religion or anything else.
And as Brother Waterman has
always shied at the sm^ll of pow
der and the sound of the bugle
call, we must still insist that he
has not yet attained the degree of ,
a “Good” Democrat. He is yet
in the class of those who are
Demcrats only when “the wind is
right.”
The great trouble with Brother!
Waterman is that he will hoist the
name of some prominent Demo
crat for President, and then begin
throwing bouquets at himself and
boasting of his Democracy.
