STOCK LAW ELECTION
Held Tuesday, Feb. 26, 1918
In Town of McCrory, Ark.
The election'called by May
or W. W. Raney as ordered by
the Council for the purpose of
ascertaining the desires of the
voters of the town asto wheth
er or not McCrory should have
a stock law resulted in much
interest being manifested and
a heavy vote being polled, the
anti-stock law element howev
er taking the most active part
in same some of them having
held a private caucus in the old
armory building the night be
fore the election and having
had a paid informer to check
the voting.
The most interesting fea
ture of the election was the
witnessing of some of the lad
ies visiting the polls and for
their first time casting their
ballot for that which they
thought best and right. Eleven
ladies voted and it is said that
a majority of them cast their
votes in favor of the stock law.
There were 121 votes cast
and the result was 64 against
the stock law and 56 for it.
One voter, and be it said to the
credit of the ladies that it was
not one of them, did not know,
or at least failed to fill out his
ballot correctly and the same,
of course, was not counted for
or against.

Esq. L. B. Winfree of this
city who was recently appoin
ted food administrator of
Woodruff county is getting
busy with his work of looking
after Uncle Sam’s food affairs.
He is just home from a visit to
Cotton Plant and Hunter and
states that the people there
are observing the regulations
more from a standpoint of pa
triotism than of law which is
as it should be.
Mr. Winfree, being well and
favorably known to the entire
citizenship of this county, is
especially suited for the above
place and will, we are sure,
look after the duties of same
to. the best interests of all
concerned and we know that
with the hundreds of volun
teers who have left Woodruff
county firesides, there will be
practically no opposition but
on the other hand the hearty
co-operation coming from her
citizenship in this work. Fol
lowing is a notice from the ad
ministrator which we gladly
publish and which we admon
ish our people to heed, there
by saving themselves unneces
sary time, trouble and expense.
McCrory, Ark., Mar. 1, 1918.
To those who have flour in
excess of the amount allowed
by the Federal Food Adminis
tration, I want to warn you to
not listen to the enemies in our
midst who would make you
believe this to be a mere re
quest and that it is optional
with you as to complying with
same. There is a severe pen
alty attached for your failure
to comply. Do your duty by
your country at home and
thereby help those fighting
for you in the trenches.
Respectfully,
L. B. WINFREE,
Administrator
