THE ELECTION OFFICERS
County Committee Selects Judges
and Clerks For Primary
The Democratic County Central
Committee held a meeting at
Batesville Saturday and selected
the judges, clerks and sheriffs for

mittee.

HILL BILLIE STALDS PAT
■ .
Insists That he is Right and Wants
to be “Cited”
Mr. Editor.—By your kind per
mission, I would again call upon
the candidates to tell us plainly
how they stand ou prohibition,
whether they will vote and work
for a short term or go down and
rob the state again, as other legis- ,
latures have done; if they will re- (
peal that pernicious statute, sec- \
tion 1309, and if they will give us ]
a modern election law.
Permit me also to notice “Dem- .
ocrat,” of your iast issue.
First, he says my writings sound
like “reconstruction.” When a
gang of legislators rob the state
every two years by an extended
session; when people have to pay
$17.50 to get a $500 house insur
ed, while the same policy can be
gotten in Missouri for $5; when
Caldwell & Drake can buy so much
legislation for a few thousand dol
lars; when the insane lie rottening ■
in county jails for want of asy
lums; when a two by four legisla
tor gets $0 a day, while the farmer
gets $1 a day; when you can hear
the official vote of the entire state
of Missouri or Texas before you
can get the official vote of Inde
pendence county; when the circuit
courts of the county last ten weeks
a year and the country schools
only three months a year; when
the county clerk gets $2100 a year
and the country school teacher
gets $120 a year; when the court
houses and jails are palatial struct
ures, built of brick, stone and
marble, and the country school
house- are cheap wooden adairs;
and when the legislatures squander
millions of the peoples’ money, is
it not time for reconstruction
And the people—not the poli
ticians who call themselves Demo- .
crat or Republican, for revenue
only—are going to do the recon
structing.
Second. “None, according to
Billie’s criticism, have offered who
are tit to bp legislators.” No man
is tit for that office who will not
openly declare that he will work
for what the people want, and
name what he will work for.
Third. “Thinks it would be a
good idea to turn the legislating
over to Billie with plenty of
booze.” 1 will take the job for
one-third of what the last legisla- *
ture cost, and not charge any- -
thing extra for booze, and give
bond that I will do the state ten
times more good than the next
legislature will do if the members
go there unpledged on the import
ant questions.
Fourth. “Now Billie why didn't
you stay in Missouri; who sent for
you?” I did not want to stay in
Missouri. I came to this county
in the sixties with my mother who
had lived here in the forties. Rud
dell township bears her maiden
family name, and that family came .
here from Missouri in 1811. Who
sent for you, “Democrat?” You
were not here in the sixties. Why .
didn’t you stay where you were 1
then? The world would not have •
missed you. Why don’t you say !
the principles 1 advocate are •
wrong, instead of slinging mud?
Fifth. “Billie said some good ^
things, but gave us too much hot -
air.” 1 didn’t want to say anything h
but good, and my coming out bold- s
ly and truthfully in saying what J -j
know to be true hurts “Demo
crat’’ and he tries to fool the peo- *
pie by calling it hot air.
I will not put brakes on my pub- ,r
lie utterances as long as I am acit- |j
izen of Arkansas while she is be- a
ing robbed every two years by the “
legislature; nor until her people li
can get as cheap insurance as the
people of Missouri; nor until the b
costs of her circuit courts are cut t<
half in two; nor until we get a t
modern election law; nor until the h
last saloon in the state is closed [j
forever; nor until every country
school district in the state has a
nine months school. c
He thinks llillie would have no 11
trouble securing permission to >
leave. 1 have, at different times, i
lived in Missouri, Texas, Tennes- c
'•‘ee and Kentucky, and have al
ways been blessed with the s
liberty, a« 1 am now, to go to or a
leave a state o; cotcmuoity whtu I e

2t ready. Any man can have this
berty who pays his honest debts
id refrains from crime, and if

berty it is not my fault.

W ill let Billie know when we
in use some Missourians to tell

ow do these words ring like true
>emocracy' Where did “Demo
rat’ get power to call on Mis
lurians? From whence comes his
uthority to tell a citizen who is
IkiMbie to hold any oikce lu the
county or state under the laws of
the state, that lie must not discuss
public issuesIs the right of pub
lic discussion exclusive to the
preemptors of Independence coun
ty f If so, I have a better right
than “Democrat” and for p-oof I
refer you to page 321 of marriage
record B, which shows that my
father and mother were citizens of
this county in 1«54.
Ah! “Democrat” because of
your tender age, I mercifully
spare you further pain, and tell
you like a father that raudsliuging
is not argument.
