WHY ARKANSAS HAS
NO MILLIONAIRES
Wealth is More Evenly Divided and
Does Not Go Into the Pock
ets of a Few Men.
A newspaper item to the effect
that there are 108 resident million
ionaires in Colorado, their total
wealth being1 about $2d<),000,000,
served as a lead for an interesting
conversation in a group of promi
nent men in Gleason's hotel lobby
at Little Rock recently, says the j
Arkansas Gazette. JThe assertion
was made that there was not a sin
gle resident millionaire in Arkan
sas. Mention was made of sever
al citizens whose individual wealth
approximates perhaps half a mil
lion dollars, but no one could name
a person in the state whose posses
sions entitled him to rank in the
#1,000,000 class. Of course there
are corporations in Arkansas with
million-dollar assets, and it may
be in a few years that some of the
private fortunes will be enhanced
to the seven-figure category.
■‘Without doubt there are a
number of prospective million
aires in the state,” said one man,
who seemed to be well-informed.
“I know several men whose hold
ings are worth several hundred
thousand dollars and consist large
ly of realty, including timber and
mineral lands. The value of then
property is rapidly increasing.
Hundreds of persons, in fact, have
made judicious investments in
Arkansas, and it is but a question
af reasonable time that they will
be eligible to the #1,000,000 rating.
The cotton fields of Arkansas pro
duce double the amount of wealth
turned out by the Colorado gold
mines annually, but the cotton re
turns are divided among the thous
ands of owners of farms, while in
Colorado the profits of gold pro
ductions are concentrated among j
a few mine owners. That’s the
difference. In Arkansas the
wealth is distributed among the
people; in Colorado it goes into!
the pockets of a fortunate few for I
the most part. There is no other
state in the Union in which the;
conditions are more favorable fori
wealth production than in Arkan- j
sas. ’ ’
A WORD ABOUT BORROWING.
If The Journal’s subscription;
list was as large as the number of
families who read our paper, our
income would be increased quite:
perceptibly. So common is the t
custom of reading someone else’s
paper that our attention is called
to it nearly every day, and it reaV 1
ly surprises us occasionally to
learn that some who 'are abund
antly able to subscribe and who!
by reasons ought to have an inter
est in the success of the paper,
will wait for four or five days for
a second-hand copy each week in- j
stead of having their name put on
the list. The worst part of it is
that many of these borrowers are
the ones who knock on us contin
ually, yet if they missed seeing it
a single week they would wear out
a quarter’s worth of sole leather
hunting a subscriber who would
loan him his paper. We get more
than a little satisfaction however,
out of hearing that our subscribers
and friends occasionally turndown
these gulls, as they should be.
We don’t expect everyone to take
our paper nor to agree with us in
all things, but to those who bor
row we would say, if you have in
terest in Newark and what we
work hard every week to publish
in the interest of her people don’t
your conscience hurt you a little
when you eagerly scan the col
ums of a paper for which you have
not paid?
COL. COOK’S VISIT.
Col. V.Y.Cools of Elmo recently
returned from a visit to Hon. B.
11. Crowley of Paragould, and in
speaking of the colonel, the Para
gould Soliphone has (lie following:
“While in the city Col. Cook
was warmly greted by many old
ex-Confederates and Spanish war
veterans. The colonel is a soldier
of distinction as well as a dis
tinguished civilian, and his erect
and stately form, eagle eye and
military bearing mark him as such.
“In the war between the states
he followed Forrest, under whom
he served as an officer and saw
service in many of the hard fought
battles of that bloody struggle.
At the outbreak of the Spanish
American war he was, by (tov.
Dan Jones, appointed colonel of
the Second Arkansas regiment
and still clings to the regret that
the war department never let his
regiment get beyond the camp at
Chickamauga. The colonel and
his regiment were full of fight
and the enforced camp life they
led during the scrimmage was to
them like being in prison.”
A severe wind storm did consid
erable damage on the farm of
John Frazier in Pulaski county
Friday night. A gin house was
unroofed and three tenant houses
blown down.
THE WAITER LOST A TIP.
Gave the Guest He Was Serving Just
the Opening for an
Escape.
At one of the Kansas City ho
tels where t he colored waiters give
especially good service, but al
ways expect adequate remunera
tion for the same from the guests,
a waiter was especially officious
the other day in serving a man
from whom he expected a liberal
tip, relates the Journal. When the
meal had been served and he was
standing off at one side, eagerly
looking for an opportunity to lie of
service, lie said to the guest:
“Didn’t yo’ have a brothah heah j
last week, sab?”
“No," said the one addressed, “I;
believe not.”
“Well,” continued the waiter,j
“theh was a gem’man heah at mah
table what looked ve’y much likej
you, and he was so well pleased!
with the service that he gave me 50
cents when he left.”
The guest had by this time fin- i
ished his meal, and as he arose he
said to the expectant servitor:
“Come to think of it, Sam, that;
was my brother that was here, and |
I guess he paid you for the whole!
family. He may be back again in a
week or two.”

DANIEL J. SULLY’S
ADVICE TO FARMERS
The Famous Cotton Bull Issues a.
Statement to the Cotton Grow
ers of the South
Daniel J. Sully of New York
lias issued the following address
to the southern cotton growers:
“If you wish to win your battle
and obtain a fair price for your
cotton you must reduce your acre
age very considerably. You have
surprise the world by the man
ner in which you have held your
cotton. Surprised it again by cut
ting down your cotton acreage.
Do not be led astray by the pres
ent steadiness of prices.
“Three causes have contributed
to bring about this rise of more
tlmn a cent a pound. 1st. The
urgent demand arising from an
unprecedented consumption. 2nd.
Your courage and wisdom in mak
ing the buyer meet your terms.
:ird. The belief that you would
cut your acreage to such an extent
that the supplies from this crop
and tin* growth of 1905 6 would
make a commercial crop no larger
than the world needs.
“The first two causes lose their
force the moment it is shown that
there is a prospect for a moderate
ly large crop next year. Even if
the mills take 12,000,000 bales dur
ing the current season, this would
leave a carryover of 1,500,000
bales. Hence the necessity of a
smaller crop this year. Do not
let any rise of the market between
now and the end of planting season
deter you from reducing your
acreage. Such an advance would
be merely anticipating that you
were making the decrease which
your friends had advised you to
make.
“If the dune report of the gov
ernment shows that you have fail
ed to make sufficient reduction the
only persons who would be gain
ers by the advance would be spec
ulators who sell out their futures
at a profit. The price of the cot
ton you produce will be regulated
by the actual not the expected re
duction.
“In this matter of acreage re
duction, bear in mind three sug
gestions: Don’t depend on your
neighbor to do the reducing!
Don't depend on bad weather to
cut down the size of your crop!
Don’t put a large acreage into cot
ton simply because it is too late to
plant corn or other diversified
crops.
“It would be far better to let
part of your land lie idle than to
run the risk of raising a crop so
large as to make possible another
period of low priced cotton. L
am making this appeal to you be
cause I regard the next few weeks
is critical to the South and be
cause 1 believe every man who is
interested in the welfare of the
South should urge the importance
of a reduced acreage.”
BITS OF WISDOfl.
The way to make tomorrow bet
tor than yesterday is to work to
day.
It isn't the money that counts;
it is the intent and purpose of the
giver.
A man may burn so much “mid
night oil” that he has none left to
oil the day’s machinery.
The man who starts out looking"
for trouble usually finds it just
alamt to enter his own door.
The man who has no business of
his own is a mighty poor man to
engage to attend to your business.
The men who talk the loudest
about politics being dirty are the
men who are too lazy to help clean
up things.
