The News force got out a nice
lot of job work this week for A. S.
Thompson, of DeView; Wilder,
Kyle & Co.; and the Knights and
Ladies of Honor of Riverside.
Come and have your iob work
done now. Our work speaks for
itself.
Our Governor Jeff Davis has
opened one of the most exten
sive soap factories ever started
in Arkansas. He has Harry Myers
an expert soap man, engagaged
up to Sept. 1st.Mr. H has been iu
the soap business a long time,but.
hiever until this Summer has he
:had to use such fats. The factory
has been trying for the past two
weeks to convert the poweil clay
ton fat into plausible soap, but
the inset-gents are hard to pacify.
He will make a desperate attempt
between now and the 1st with
the aid of pie-counters, acids etc.
to make the soap, but we can tell
him. his efforts are. all in vain.
On the first, Jeff v.-ilhquietly dis
charge the malitiaite and our do
main be in peace. Hurrah for
Democracy.
DEMOCRACY?
Cod Aimighty in hie wisdom
made man in his own image; not
partly but altogether, man. Lo
and behold our friend has
discovered an unpardonable mis
take in the handy-work of Deity;
two persons fashioned by Omni
potence with the digestive appa
ratus of howling dogs. We are
astonished that our neighbor
should lay such a charge at the

door of Supreme Perfection. So
much for the physical make up
of Mary and the Editor of the
Free Press.
Now to the subject of Democra
cy. While we never fear the re
sult of an election in Arkansas,
yet at the same time, we should
have democracy at heart to such
an extent that we will be satisfied
with nothing but a larger major
ity than before. We will grant
that every democrat has a right
before the primary to use all legi
timate means to have the proper
man as the nominee of the party.
And as the late primary election
has fully demonstrated, by 70
counties to 5, the choice of de
mocracy, therefore, we claim that
every true democrat will lay
aside all prejudice and acquiesce
in the will of the majority. After
the primary is over and gone, it
behooves every democrat to loose
sight of individuals and shoulder
the musket and use a munition in
downing the party that will be
dominated by one-armed, bloody,
malitia, powell clayton as long as
his putrid hide keeps alive. If this
republican monster ever had a
heart, it has long since been pet
ritied. We will assert here and
now that no democrat will throw
slurs at democracy and that is
what the Free and the Vidette
are both doing. When you tight
me. iiuiULiiusc, j'uu tut; paruy.
How much Jess a democrat is
the man or woman that is contin
ually thrusting the dagger of in
gratitude in the back of those '
who are so earnestly laboring for
the downfall of MALITIAISM i
and the complete vindication of '
DEMOCRACY. In as much as
we are interested in a large ma
jority for our democratic nomi
nees, from Governor to Constable
no matter who they are, just so
democracy has labeled them no
minees and as we are laboring to
swell the majority to the great
est in the history of our state,
therefore, we shall refrain from
using strong terms. In conclu
sion, will ask the Free Press
man not only to vote but be a
valiant soldier on the battle-field
and blacken the eyes of all mali
tiaites,
:
WATCH FOR A CHILL.
However slight at this time of
year and in this climate, it is the
forerunner of malaria. A dispo
sition to yawn, and an all tired

stimulative action on the liver,
drives the malarial germs out of
the system, purifies the blood,
tones up the system and restores
health. 50c at Dr. Neal.

Editor of News:
Since my last let
ter to the News, I have received
many letters from friends in
Woodruff and Cross Counties
wishing to know about this part
of Texas. Responding thereto, I
will say, this is as fine a farming
country as in any state. I have
never seen more rain than we
have had here this year. Crops
are O. K. I believe corn will
yield from 50 to 75 bushels per
acre. One man said he saw a
held that would yield 100 bushels
per acre. I did not see this. Ma
ny planted June corn after the
oats and wheat were harvested.
This late crop is doing '.veil. Oats
and wheat turned out well. Cot
ton never was better. The bole
worm is at work on the cotton.
Some say it will ruin the crop:
others say it will cause the far
mers to make a bale per acre. So
you see everyoue does not look
through the same glasses.
If the land-owners and the
renters would try, there would
be plenty of water. Some would
rather haul water than spend a
little for lumber for gutters.
Health is good. The people here
are as good as can be found any
where. It is the hardest place to
rent a farm I ever saw. I see
men daily looking for land to
rent. A man must have a gold
edged recommendation to get a
good place. Most all iands are
rented early in May or June.
Some land owners want a third
all around (third and fourth is
scarcely fit to live in.
Land sells from $40 to $75 Iper
acre. We are well pleased here.
We are glad that Woodruff Co.
lias a good crop this pear.
Will say to all that are thinking
of coming to Texas; come and see
for yourself before you sell what
you have. Things might not
suit you as they do me. East
Texas is better for a poor man
than other portions.
Hoping this may be satisfac
tory to those who have -written
and wishing much success to the
News and its many readers, I re
main, Your friend,
J. S. Haggard.

There is little land that is not in
cultivation. The renter must
keep his stock in small pens and
feed them all the time. A few
farms have pastures and the
renter has to pay for the use of
same. If a man wants to raise
cotton and just enough corn to
make out and nothing else, this
is the place.
