WORKING FOR THE
SCHOOL AMENDMENT
Hinemon Interested in Adoption of
Proposed Amendment For In
crease of School Taxes.
State Superintendent J. II.
Hinemon is doing yeoman service
in behalf of the proposed amend- I
merit to the constitution to enable
the school districts of the state to j
vote a tax of seven mills instead j
of five, the present maximum, for
school purposes. He has already
delivered addresses in ^twenty five
counties and expects to continue |
the work until he has spoken in ;
every county in the state.
In discussing the matter in the
Arkansas Democrat Mr. Hinemon;
says:
“The people of the state are be
ing aroused over the importance
of this movement as they have not
been aroused in years. The Busi
ness Men’s league of Arkadelphia, !
for instance, this week passed un
animously a resolution endorsin';
the action of the school board in a
movement for a new and
thorougly modern school buTWing
to cost faom $25,000 to $40,000.
“I have not found a single man
who has expressed himself as op
posed to the amendment which
permits the people to increase the |
revenue for the support of the j
schools of the state, if they want:
to do so. Everywhere 1 have been
met by large, enthusiastic and j
responsive audiences that give me \
the greatest encouragement in the :
work.
“It is, without a doubt, the
most important question that has
been submitted to the people of
Arkansas in thirty years. It is
the history of educational move- j
ments that such questions are not
submitted oftener that thirty j
years, and this makes it all the j
more imperative that the amend
ment be adopted at this time.
STARTLING COMPARSION.
“The average length of the
school terms in the United States
with the exception of Arkansas is I
145 days, ond in Arkansas it is 99 j
days. The average per capita ex
pended for school purposes in the,
United States, exclusive of Ark
ansas is $10.54, and in Arkansas it j
is only <>7. Our teachers are j
also inadequately paid. Let the !
school revenues be increased and
the system can be put upon an;
average with the other states of;
the Union.”
“LET THE LOWER LIGHTS
BE BURNING.”
To 'I'he Newark Journal:
People who favor temperance
have sometimes been charged with
being a punny, ugly, sickly, raw
boned set. Instead of condemn
ing they should feel sorry and
sympathize. How much more
beautiful are they! With their
rose bud noses and trembling
hands! People living in glass
houses should not throw stones.
The pot calls the kettle black.
The Prohibitionists are a weak
set. 1 f they do not do the best
they know they are an ugly set,
for beauty is as beauty does. It
takes grit and bravery to follow
the weaker side. Most of us kuowj
that drinking will not do, but
haven’t the grit to say so. If
Prohibitionists were strong this j
pen would not be used for temper
ance. If Prohibitionists were
strong there would be no need of
sowing good for a better develop
ment.
Hut blessed are the weak if the
truth is theirs. To endure scorn
and satire, tests the strength of
the strongest. The acron is a
small thing, but behold the oak.
Prohibitionists accept t h e
I charge. They are weak, ugly,
j poor and few—but God and one is
ja majority. Temperance will
%
come, in the natural way, because
it is natural. Temperance will
come like *
“The daytime corues back when
night is done,
And the crimson streak on the O ;e.m’s
cheek
Grows into the great sun.”
Temperance will come like the
daytime comes to the sick—first
the dark, dark nights, then a faint
glimmering—the morning star is
shining—then the horizon lights
and the glorious sun brings up the
day. Is one man true to the cause
of temperance< Then the dawn is
breaking.
“Oh let us pray that Cuine it may
And come it will fur all that.”
“Is there for honest povert y
That hangs Iris head, an' a’ that;
The Coward slave—we pass him by,
We dare he poor for a’ that!
For a' what, an’ a’ that,
The rank i- but the dollar's stamp,
The man's the gold for a' that.”
The question is not “are Prohi
bitionists ugly, poor and weak,”
but the question is, “are men and
women true to the truth as they
see itf Are they valiant!” Is
there such a thing as honor! __
For right is right,
Since (iod is (rod;
And right the day shall win.
To doubt would be disloyalty
To falter would be sin.
“By the rivers of Babylon
Tliert we sat down, yea, we Wept,
When we remembered Zion,
I'pon the widows in the midst there
of
We hanged up our harps
If I forget thee, O Jerusalem,
Let my right hand forget her cunning
Let my tongue cleave to the roof of
my mouth
If I reu.ember not thee;
If I prefer nut .Jerusalem above my
chief joy.
This was the song Isreal sang in
captivity in Babylon—that rich
and wicked city. Jerusalem was
razed to the ground, crushed by
her foes, burnt and her people in
slavery. But today the strong has
been made weak, because, indeed,
it was already that. Who cares
for Babylon now! Nobody but a
few scholars. How about Jerusa
lem, the weak and captive, the ash
heap! Jerusalem has become an
ideal, by the valor of the Jews.
She is glorified. Jerusalem is the
home of the soul, the dwelling
place of “just men made perfect.”
It is the New Jerusalem that shall
never pass away.
Behold the mustard seed, the
smallest of all seeds, but when it
is grown the birds build nests in
its branches.* Think of the Thir
teen Colonies and Washington’s
soldiers at Valley Forge. Were
they not weak? Look at the en
emy, a great European nation
against a small and frozen army.
Washington’s men were strong
because the soul of honor was with
them.
“Watchman, tell us of the night,
What its signs of promise are.
Traveller, o'er yon mountains height,
bee that glorious beaming star!
Watchman, coes its beauteous ray
Aught of hope or joy foretell?
Traveller, yes, it brings tlie day,
Promised day of Isreal.
Watchman, tell us of the night;
Higher yet, that star ascends.
Traveller, blessedness and light,
Peace and truth, its course portends.
Watchman, well its beams alone
(Hid the spot that give them birth?
Traveller, ages are its own;
See it bursts o'er all the earth.
Mks. P. G. Maunkks.
Terrific Race With Death.
"Death was fast approaching,”
writes Ralph F. Fernandez, of
Tampa. Fla., describing his fear
ful race with death, ' ts a result
of liver troul»le and heart disease,
which had rohhed me |Uf sleep
and of ail interest in life. 1 had
tried many different doctors and
several medicines, hut got no ben
efit, until I began to use Electric
Bitters. So wonderful was their
effect, that in three days I felt
like a new man, and today I am
cured of all my troubles.’' Guar

You
Look
Yellow
The trouble is, your liver’s
sick. One of its products,
’’bile,” is overflowing into
your blood.
You can't digest your food,
your appetite is poor, you
suffer dreadfully from head
ache, stomach ache, dizzi
ness, malaria, constipation,
etc. What you need is not a
dose of salts, cathartic water
or pills—but a liver tonic
Thedford’s
Black-lraught
This great medicine acts gently on
the sick liver. It purities the blood,
renews the appetite, feeds the nerves,
clears the brain and cures consti
pation.
It is a true medicine for sick liver
and kidneys, and regulates all the
digestive functions. Try it.
