TELEPHONE NUMBER 59.
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 21. 1902.
Of course the republican party
will now proceed to demolish the
trusts. ^____
H. M. Phelps, of Jonesboro,
will establish a new paper at Im
bodeu.
At any rate, Tom Johnson came
out of the recent political battle
with his talking machine in run
ning order.
President Roosevelt didn’t even
get a shot at a hear during his re
cent bear hunt in Mississippi. But
of course be can load bis air gun
and take a shot at the trusts.
The Pocahontas News favors
Tom Johnson for President in
1904. He may be all right, but we
are free to admit that The Jour
nal is not stuck on Tom Johnson.
Ed Butler, the St. Louis bood
ler, the prosecution of whom has
attracted attention all over the
country, was on last Friday found
guilty, and sentenced to three
years in the penitentiary. An ap
peal to the supreme court was
taken. _
A special to the Gazette from
this place says that the Bank of
Newark handles ns much cash as
any bank with $100,000 capital.
And that’s about true, too. The
hank clearings are a good index
to the business transactions of a
town, and we feel safe in saying
that the Bank of Newark handles
at least a third more money than
any other banking institution in
the state situated in a town the
size of Newark.
Proverbs
“ When the butter won’t
come put a penny in the
churn,” is an old time dairy
proverb. It often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
r When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them Scott’s Emul
sion.
It is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
Scott’s Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be
cause it is so perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children Scott’s Emulsion
is the most satisfactory trcat
We will send you
the penny, i. e., a
sample free.
Be sure that this picture in
the form of a label is on the
wrapper of every bottle of
Emulsion you buy.

\\ (> he:ir of a multitude of legi
slators who expect to go to Little
Rock with a pocket full of bills to
introduce. If some level-headed
member would introduce and se
cure the passage of a law to pro
vide that each member of the leg
islature be allowed to introduce
not mote than two bills, it would
be a good thing for the state.
The Kavonden Hustler’s elo
quent argument in favor of “pat
ent insides” sounds rather famil
iar. And, by the way, we believe
wo have read the same thing, word
! for word, in some of the “coax
; ers” sent out by a certain publish
ing house. At least the Hustler
has failed to convince us that it is
to the publishers interest to use
ready-prints.
The Baptist state convention at
Conway adopted resolutions pro
viding that members of the Bap
tist church shall hereafter oppose
any candidate for public office on
unv ticket who drinks whisky or
stands in with the saloon element.
As Governor Davis has heretofore
been known as a “Quart Baptist,”
are we to understand by this that
his political career is thus to be
rudely ended ?
The report comes from Wash
ington that preparations are being
made to pass the notorious ship
subsidy bill immediately after con
gress convenes. Advocates of the
measure claim that if it is passed
now the people will have forgot
ten all about it by the time an
other election takes place, but un
less the democratic press and
politicians take a long nap, they
will find themselves woefully mis
taken.
A Golden Opportunity.
Waldron, a little town in Scott
county with only 487 inhabitants,
is installing a system of gas lights.
A local company lias been organ
ized and is pushing the enterprise
and reports say that the outlook is
very favorable for success. Why
can't Newark take the cue and do
; likewise < It would Ik- much pleas
anter than stumbling around in the
: dark when business calls one out
at night. It seems that we can't
get sidewalks, and if we are bound
I to wade the mud, let's put in lights
so we can “keep in the middle of
the road. ”
The Champion Turnip.
To P. 11. Hulsey belongs the
honor of raising the largest turnip
grown in Independence county
this year. At least in the pleasant
little rivalry among a number of
citizens of this part of the county
to bring in the largest turnip, he
now leads all other producers of
large turnips by nearly two pounds.
I Mr. Hulsey’s champion turnip was
brought in Tuesday and weighs
8£ pounds and measures 304 in
ches in circumference. This turnip
was grown in the family garden
and in the 30 bushels which he
raised on a very small plot of
ground in the garden there are but
few that are smaller than an ordi
nary table saucer, lie raised a big
crop of fine Irish potatoes on the
same land in the early part of the
season, harvested the potatoes in
August and sowed the turnips,
thus securing two crops from the
same land.
Prominent Citizen Dead.
T. J. Long, one of Christian
township's most highly respected
citizens died at his home near Elmo
Monday afternoon after a three
weeks illness from typhoid fever.
Mr. Long had been a resident of
Christian township for a number
of years, was a man of ability,
honesty and integrity and had
many friends throughout the coun
ty. Mr. Long was about 45 years
of age and leavesa widow and nine
children. lie was a member of
Newark Lodge No. 248 F. & A.
M. and was buried with Masonic
honors Tuesday noon at the Maple
Springs cemetery.

Your Hair
“Two years ago my hair was
falling out badly. I purchased a
bottle of Ayer’s Hair Vigor, and
soon my hair stopped coming out.”
Miss Minnie Hoover, Paris, 111.
Perhaps your mother
had thin hair, but that is
no reason why you must
go through life with half
starved hair. If you want
long, thick hair, feed it
with Ayer’s Hair Vigor,
and make it rich, dark,
and heavy.

Plot to Assassinate Roosevelt.
Three plots to assassinate Presi
dent Roosevelt, with alleged de
tails of anarchist machinery, were
exposed by the confession of a
woman who has been converted
to Christianity at the behest of
her husband and who now declares
that she moves in constant fear
of her life, and needs detectives
to guard her whenever she ven
tures from her home.
This woman is Mrs. Lena Dox
heimer, of Hoboken, New York,
ller confession was made before
the Mother’s Club of the Metho
dist Episcopal Church in Hobo
ken, and its publication authoriz

has told are verified by known

Killed by a Negro.
El Dorado. Nov. 19.—Ed Younts,
foreman at the railroad construc
tion camp one mile east of El Do
rado, was shot and killed yester
day evening by Albert Matthews,
a negro. The murderer escaped,
but a posse is m hot persuit and
if the fugitive is caught it will be
hard to prevent summary ven
geance. The murder was one of
the most cold-blooded ever com
mitted in this section. Without
warning the negro slipped up be
hind Mr. Younts and shot him
down. The motive for the crime
is not known.
LOCAL GATHERINGS.
Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Morrow,
prominent citizens of Dodd City,
are sending a few days in the
city visiting their daughter, Mrs.
Zed Griffith.
L. Foot, a good citizen of the
Dota neighborhood, was attending
to business in town yesterday and j
had his name added to our sub-!
scription list.
The Dawes Commission will
commence the allotment of the
Choctaw Indian lands February I,
1903, and a great rush of home
seekers at that time is expected.
The voting machines used in the
recent election in New York piov
ed highly successful. The results
are quickly and uoi mutely obtain

Tom Steel reports that a flock of
blood red ducks passed over his
place the other morning going
north and says they were flying so
low that he could have thrown into
them with a rock.
W. A. Edwards came up from
his farm down near the Point last
Saturday and reports that he [lick
ed 200 pounds of cotton a day all
last week. Hut he didn't bear any
visible marks of a cotton picker.
The heavy rain last Saturday
night caused Hon. F. M. Martin’s
cotton seed house to tilt over to
one side considerably. It was full
of seed and the soft condition of
the ground caused the blocks on
one side to siuk and it came near
toppling over.
Tonk Galloway deposited a dol
lar with the cashier Monday and
had his name placed on our sub
scription list. He has been run
ning the engine at the gin, but
will probably go to work for C. J.
Magness on the telephone line from
Rosie to Batesville.
Quite a number of people from

T. J. Raney and wife, Ben Bran

W. T. Magness’ Saloon and E.
lv. McHenry’s place of business
are now lighted with gas. The fix
tures were put in by E. M. Edgar
and that he did the job up in good
shape is proven by the brilliant
lights that illuminate those build
ings. They are the best lighted
houses in town.

The Triumph of Economy as Well
as of Art.
♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦
This combination is the cause, and the Important cause, of
the wonderful popularity of the Kimball Pianos and Organs.
35 000 per year are not sufficient to supply the demand, as
the Kimball Company is several thousand orders behind in
shipments and is planning fuither large additions to “The
Greatest Factory in existence.”
What else could create the prodigious growth which “I he
Kimball” has attained, than that the instruments are the acme
of perfection and in the cost to manufacture and to sell are a
triumph of economy not possible to competition. Ihe incon
sistency of prejudice and carping criticism must make w ay tor
well-earned reputatiod and such advancing progress.
We solicit inquriesof all kinds concerning Pianos and Organs
their prices, terms of payment or otherwise. We will promptly
and satisfactorily serve every requirement.

complimentary terms of the town !
in his paper and says, among oth
er things, that “one of the most
impressive things about Newark is
the unanimity of its citizens in
pushing their town. They know it
;s something to be proud of and
hey are, every man of them, |
proud to say a good word for it. “ I
ibis fact is often remarked upon
by people from other places who
occasionally visit Newark, and
tins is of itself something to be
proud of. There are but few
towns to l>e found in any country
where the people work together
with harmony and singleness of
purpose and stand by each other
us they do in Newark.
