It looks a little strange that men
can tank up and get in the lock-up
in a prohibition town. Where do
they get their booze, and are the
officers doing their duty?
Chancellor Hart has refused to
grant an injunction preventing
State Auditor Moore from issuing
warrants on the $25,000 appropri
ation made by the last general as
sembly for the support of the state
militia. The court held the law to
be constitutional and valid and
dismissed the petition for an in
junction. '
The Pocahontas Star discourses
fluently upon the excellences of
it's “patent inside,” but a careful
examination of the “patent” pages
fails to reveal, to us, anything
worth boasting of. Not a single
one of the supposed news articles
on the patent pages were less than
eight days old when the Star was
published, and many of them elev
en days old. The publisher who
palms off such stale stuff as that
on his readers as news, and then
brags on it, ought to be shot in
the face with a wet dish-rag.
The editor of The Journal was
relieved of about $50 in the Feder
al court at Batesville Monday for
the hienous crime of publishing
and sending through the mails an
alleged advertisement of a lottery
scheme. Other papers all over the
country that published the same
advertisement have escaped pun
ishment; in fact, no one seems to
care what others do so long as The
Journal behaves itself. But, no
matter what others do, The Jour
nal must l)e good—or go to jail.
()ur bretheren of the press who
have, like The Journal, been run
ning these alleged lottery adver
tisements, wholly ignorant of the
fact that it was a violation of the
law, and with absolute no inten
tion of violating the law, should
take notice of our misfortune in
this ease and profit thereby.
ANTI-TRUST ACT SUSTAINED.
Little Rock, May 23.- Judge
E. W. Winfield, of the Pulaski
Circuit Court, Second Division,
today delivered a decision in the
Hartford and German Alliance
anti-trust test case, in which lie
upheld the validity of the cele
brated antitrust act.
I Judge K. J. Lea of the First
■ Division and Chancellor Hart con
curred in the decision. It is held
that the language of the act makes
i it clear that the legislature intend
| ed to punish the member of a
trust anywhere for doing business
in Arkansas.
The defendant companies will
proceed at onee to take the case
to the Supreme Court, and the
transcript will probably l>e tiled
within three days.
KILLED BY THE BOSS.
Fort Smith, May 2:>.—This
morning' S. Burnett, manager of
the Harris Lumber Company, shot
and killed a young man named A.
T. Smith, employed as a mill hand
and log roller. Burnett and Smith
did not get along very well togeth

indulged in wars of words. This
morning Smith was passing Bur

Waldron, thirty miles from here,
when Burnett shot at him three
times with a rifle, indicting wounds

licly destroyed by Constable Mark
Phillips at Jonesboro one day last

ed because shipped into a prohibi
tion district.
