I ' There will he but u few more issue* , of the state press before the opening of the 1912 Arkansas Slate Pair. Tha doors of this big commonweatti exhib it of Arkansas will be formally throw* I open next Monday mornnig. It Is not asking too much that tho press of Arkansas give due considera tion to the worth of the annual lali exposition of Arkansas products. The purpose and objects of a ’state fair are of mutual benefit to tlhe var ious counties of the state; the bene fits are of course In keeping with the rrynner cf improving the opportuntt.7 of showing resources. it takes some years to build up a big slate fair, and some years have been spent on this one, hut it lias rescued Iaige proportions now. and the per pie of the stale will have some s.urprlseB in store. There will be more agricultural ami hr.rtlcuttura! exhibits than were ever exhibited before. 'Every farmer and every stock raiser who comes wttlhtn tie gates of the state fair will learn something in a short observation that he might have spent years of experi ence in learning. The manufacturing and commercial exhibits will also he far above any 'X heretofore shown in the state. The I ''amusement and entertainment tea • tnres Will surpass any ever grouped in one enclosure In the South1. The opening day will he marked with idle presence of Hon. Champ Clark, speaker of the House, and the foremost Democrat from point of po pularity and Influence, ill this coun try. Anticipating that there is no doubt about the result of the presi dential! election, and that the Demo erats will win a glorious victory, this opening day should he made a sort ot grand political rally on the part ot the citizens of a solidly Democratic state. The press of Arkansas can contri bute much to the success of this state fair, just as tlhe influence of the press of the state must be felt in every big undertaking within the sttate. If the press is silent, that silence is damp ening to the enthusiasm of the people, if the press will give tills exposition the praise that its merits justify, the peop'e who have promoted it and have spent their money in tt3 upbuilding, will lie thankful and appreciative. Sixty women of Sydney, Australia, were sentenced to jail tor wearing hatpins that protruded too far. Uy this time the officials have also dis covered that the women arrested also have long tongues. It IS stated that the soles of some Chine e women are ho small ilhat they can stand on a silver dollar. In other pace ; the souls of some people ure s» small tint they can stand on a lu cent piece. "Learn your own business" says a philosopher, In "I tile trouble is that people are so much occupied with t h" business of other people that they haven't time. A magazine devoted to cooking publishes "Hints for Dinners." They will not do. To be a success a dinner must be made up of victuals am drinks. At the funeral of a Melrose (Mass.) tn.'in a phonograph was employed to play the hymns, .lie may have thad a grudge against his relatives. Now what we want is several thousand of those big men. tired from 1 ci.e campaign, looking lor a resting place. The police of Hot Springs never tud such an opportunity to exhibit their efficiency as they will have from this date. A wise philosopher makes tihe as sertion that prosperity is one of Hie best recruiting sergeants in the de\ il s army The planets have been weighed, I be i!r la- btcn conquered, but the capa tty o. a boy's pocket still remains itiHOlved. A mean n;an says that when women ■ote it will he necessary to change he style of ballot each election. If the down town district la going o have dives ithey better dive deep nougli to keep out of sight. "Listen to your wife" says a medi al advertisement. 'Drastic remedies re being used these days. Wealth may not. bring happiness, mi It manages to make appearance.* ei’y agreeahly deceptive. Yes, they are coming, but If they ire not the right kind, they may be [dug soon afterward. It Is none too early to put on that ed, white and blue bunting and look qal enthusiastic. Its unfair to take advantage of a trail without front teeth by calling tint a back biter. A jury .is sometimes a body of men jrgauized to find out who has the tniarlest lawyer. A >1 we need now Is the weafUt'r and the 1912 state fair will be what It always Bhould have been. If liberals are nor equal to the occa sion, then conservatives will be called a a. iNo wonder a man's voice heooinea husky wlhen he drinks too much corn juice. To die at a ripe old age a man should pass away before he begins to fall orf. Didn’t the Democrats rally when they did get it going? From the vote, nobody loves a fat man.
