Oil Trough Leaks
s
Oil Trough, Sept. 30 — J. M.
Odell left Tuesday for Celeest,
Tex., to make his home.
We heard the post master say
Tuesday he received his first c.o.d.
package. He seems to think that
is a great thing, as you can keep
your money until your goods ar
rive.
Eggs are scare, hens all on a
strike, Hulsey has bought all of
our milch cows and there is no
butter.
Mrs. Stuart of Springfield, Mo.,
came in Monday to spend a few
days visiting her daughter, Mrs.W
W. Camett.
Our mail carrier from Oil Trough
to Newport is talking of resigning
and turning over his contract to
sonmne else.
A. B. Pelley and family of Dun
ningfpn, passed through here
Tuesday with their household ef
fects moving to Sulphur Rock to
make their home.
J. H. Rauhoff left Monday for
Tinley Park, 111., to make his fu
ture home.
Mr. and Mrs. W. 0 Moore spent
a couple of days in Newport this
week visiting friends.
Oran Brown of Kansas City, is
spending a while in Oil Trough.
We had about four days of
pretty weather last week though
it commenced raining again Friday
and rained until Sunday.
W. A. Mayhue was in Newport
Friday.
Bro. C. E. Cullom failed to meet
his appointment here Sunday.
J. H. Hill, our mail contractor,
has sub-let his contract to J. M.
Stephens, and Mr. Stephens will
commence carrying the mail Wed
nesday.
Prof. J. H. Hill came over to the
burying of Mr. Pelley’s child that
drowned Tuesday and did not re
turn to Sulphur Rock till Monday.
That Chicago man was right
who said that in ten years we will
be paying a dollar a pound for
porterhouse steak, if we do not
turn our attention to raising cattle
and stop killing our heifers. Yes,
in ten years, we will set down like
the Chinamen, to a bowl of rice
and potatoes, and will have no
more good, red, juicy sop. Hadn’t
we better stop and think, and be
gin raising more cattle?
Rah for Wilson and the Demo
cratic congress. Yes, give us an
International Board of Arbitration
and Peace, and taxe the weapons
of war and bury them in the deep,
and take the money it takes to
keep them up and use it to clothe
and feed and school the hungry
and poor.
SHOULD PROVIDE SPITTOONS
Editor Journal.—If the law is to
be enforced in regard to spitting
on floors in public places, would it
not be advisable or look more like
justice to the public to require all
public places to provide a sufficient
number of suitable spittoons at
their place of business? Or shall a
man swallow his spit while tran
sacting business in public places,
or walk from the back end of a
building to the street in order to
spit, or carry a spit-box with him?
Even house keepers should not be
offended at their company or visit
ors for spitting on the floors, un
less they have convenient spit
toons. However this may be, it
looks to me like the convenience
of the public should not be over
looked. J. A. Greenhaw.
STATE MONEY AND BANKS
In loaning out money to the
banks the state of Arkansas has
taken a new departure, which
might with profit be emulated by
other states. There is no 'reason
why money should be hoarded up
in a state treasury, and there is
less reason why it should be given
to favorite banks, without interest
to be loaned out to the people. Ar
kansas is collecting a reasonable
amount of interest from the banks,
and they in turn will collect an in
creased interest from borrowers,
and they are entitled to it, because
they are taking the risk.—News
Scimitar. _
NO HUNTING ALLOWED
We have posted our pasture
lands, southeast of Newark, and
no hunting will be allowed. All
trespassers will be prosecuted.

Arbraham Lincoln never said,

in a trolley car, never pushed a
button for light, never heard a
phonograph, never saw an aero

picture show, and yet Abraham
Lincoln died only 48 years ago.—
Forrest City Times.
Kain the past week has interfer
ed with cotton picking to a con
siderable'extent and there is some

ed by the wet weather. However,
the damage, so far, is not very

good use of every day of good
weather in getting the crop out.
Cotton has been selling for about
14 cents nearly all week, and last
Saturday more than $6,000 worth
of cotton was sold in Newark.
PATRONIZE THOSE
WHO ADVERTISE
they are the Life of the (own,
And Will sell you Goods

... thau/iae_ advauv
tage in patornizing those who ad
vertise. The advertiser is always
, the live business man, and it is the
live men who build towns and
cities. Ever know of a bunch of
‘‘dead ones” accomplishing any
thing in the way of city building?
The live merchants do a larger
business than the “dead ones”—
i sell' more goods and can therefore
Sill for a smaller margin of prof.t
and fresher goods. The man who
is too close to advertise and invite
your patronage would be more
than likely to be to stingy too di
vide the profit on a bargain with
you if he had one. Therefore it is
not only economy to patornize the
live, public spirited business men
but it is an aid in the upbuilding
of our town and its institutions.
And everything that helps in
building up the town helps every
resident of the town—even en*
hances the value of the holdings
of those who are too slow to help
themselves. In fact, were it not
for the live business men in a
town no business would come to
the town and the sluggards would
not even get the little that they
do get.
HOLKjES STILL POPULAR
Secretary of State Earl W.
Hodges, who has discharged the
duties of this office so creditably
far a part of two terms, will be a
candidate for re election in the
next primary. Hodges is an af
fable young man, an efficient ac
countant, and when matters of
of importance have come before
him he has rightly south the ad
vice of the attorney general and
acted theron regardless of conse
quences, mandamuses or injunc
tions. He has strong friends and
well wishers wherever he is
known, and he is widely known
throughout the state. He will be
a hard man to defeat in the next
primary.—Kussellvillle Courier
Democrat.
STOCK RAISERS INTERESTED
A citizens meeting was held at
the town hall Saturday night to
discuss the cattle tick problem

sary to pay the cost of construct

pointed to solicit funds for this
purpose. He began the work Mon
day and in a short time secured
nearly enough to finish paying for
the vat.
A good many cattle have been
dipped here this season and the
people are beginning to see tl\e
good results of dipping.
NOTICE
All parties owing me are hereby
notified to come forward and settle

give this your immediate atten
tion. Geo. F. Grosser.
