THE NEWARK JOURNAL
jlisheo Every Friday
0. F. CP >6. EDITOR AND PUBLISHER
The way to brine prosperity to
the South is to bring the cotton
mills to the South.
The Batesville Commercial is
sued a very creditable Industrial
Edition of 16 pages last week. It
is a good piece of work and speaks
well for the publishers of that
naDer.
The Arkansas Federation of
Labor at its recent convention in ;
Little Rock adopted a resolution
condemning the Going liquor law
and favoring its repeal. Up to
date, the Federation of Labor and
the Liquor Dealers Association are
the only orginizations that have
gone on record against the Going
law. The Federation of Labor
“showly” is getting in good com
pany. _
Uncle Sam has paid out in pen
sions since 1866 a total of $4,633,
511,926, according to a report just
issued from the pension office at
Washington. The largest amount
paid in one year was for the year
ending June 30, 1913, when the
total for the year reached $171,
171,660. The total amount paid
for the year ending June 30, 1911,
was $172,417,516. The total num
ber of pensioners on the rolls is
785,239. _
Are we going to put in water
works and an electric light plant
in Newark? We can do it very
easily by taking advantage of
our opportunities under Amend
ment 14. These are some of the
things that help to make a good
town and surely we all want
Newark to continue to grow. We
should be ready to take advant
age of Amendment 14 for tin’s
purpose just as soon as it goes in
to effect. ___________
One of the best indications that
the country is prosperous is that
the universities, colleges and pub
lic schools of the Southwest have
opened with the largest enroll
ments in their history and every
day brings in more pupils. Surely
this is something to be proud of,
and when we remember that
many of the pupils in universities,
colleges and nearby high schools
are from farm homes we may rest
assured that it means prosperous
farmers and better citizenship.—

We will buy a pound of Cotton for
every pound of Tobacco we sell
sBannHHB
We realize, with all the residents of the South,
the present financial stringency due- to the cotton
situation. We realize that the South must sell its
cotton, and we will help in the most practical w ay
we know—by buying cotton.
For every pound purchased of all of these famous, popular brands of
tobacco and cigarettes (counting 1,000 cigarettes equal to five pounds
of tobacco) we will buy from our dealers a pound of cotton at iOc, in
accordance with our circular to dealers dated Sept. 28.
We have faith in cotton. We know that when the war clouds
roll away, the demand of the manufacturers for cotton throughout the
world will be greater than ever before, and the South w ill enjo\ unpre
cedented prosperity.
