If there is ever a real fair in In dependence county, it will be when we all forget our selfish interests long enough to contribute a little time and I a little money to such an enterprise. ' A fair will not just happen. Wilson and Bryan are said to be considering a more aggressive course I toward Mexico. Seriously, if a more aggressive course had been taken when Madero was killed, things would have been better for this country and j for Mexico. If no one except citizens of Arkan sas ever killed Arkansas game, we would need very few game laws. The trouble is that outsiders want the game that is here, and most all the laws made are favorable to the non resident, and unfavorable to the local man. I SINGER SEWING MACHINES FIV^ DISTINCT TYPES.

CROUCH YOUR CREDIT IS GOOP: ’ SULZER’S IMPEACHMENT. The impeachment of William Sulzer । as governor of New York has more than a mere local interest for the peo- I nle of that state. It is nation wide in I its importance. There can scarcely be any doubt but what Sulzer collected large sums in campaign funds and diverted the । money to his own use; there can be no doubt that he swore falsely as to campaign expenses, and then used his power as governor to suppress the evidence. His conviction is just. But how about his successor? Has anybody examined the cam paign expenses of Mr. Glynn? And how about Murphy and his cor rupt political aggregation that in time past has been able to name even the president of the United States? Will the people of New Y’ork allow this bunch of boodlers to continue to dominate the politics of the state, and rule the officials? If anything was brought out clear ly in this Sulzer trial it was that the amount he stole would not have mat tered, if it had been 140,000 or $400,- 000, if he had been governor in name only and allowed Murphy and his gang to tie governor in fact. The amount he stole would not have mattered, if he had allowed the graft ers to get their hands into the public till. The conviction of Sulzer will not purify the politics of New Y’ork un less it means the dethronement of all the other corrupt officeholders. Glynn is not as good as Sulzer, be ! cause Glynn is a tool of Tammany, i and Sulzer refused to be the tool. : It is important in the politics of the 1 country that the politics of New Y’ork Ibe clean. It is too often the case that the empire state is the pivotal state, and too often the case that Tammany may cast the deciding electoral vote in a presidential election. It is to be hoped that the convic tion of Sulzer will have a wholesome effect, and that it is the beginning of a reformation in New Y’ork state that will cause the commonwealth to be known in the future as a state where the elections are fairly conducted and where there is neither boodle or cor suption in the public affairs. It matters little what is done in the matter of saloons, the fact remains that where there are now saloons there will be blind tigers when the law goes into effect. But it was ever thus. It is necessary to remove the saloon first and the tiger next. As long as we are using our pris ons as places to satisfy the public vengeance, the prison system of this country is all right. But if we expect to reform men and make men better, who are guilty of crime, we will have to first reform the prison system. It’s a pity they are going all the way to Alabama to get marble and stone to complete the capitol of Ar kansas, with better stone anywhere : in the Arkansas quarries. It was a long distance prediction, ; but referring to the Sulzer case, the j Guard told you so. The cards were I stacked on him, and if he had been as innocent as a baby he would have been impeached. A man and his wife in Chicago agreed to die because the man had failed in business. A very good course for such people to pursue. If they fail and give up, they are very little ’ ; use in the world. Look out for higher cotton. It I would not be surprising if the 15 cent I maximum would be reached before the I end of the month. It is never wise to advise men to hold their cotton. ‘ But if you are able to do it. hold it. The Tennessee legislature has now passed a law providing that *he law mu.-t be enforced. That seems to be a step ir the right direction. But who i j going to enforce th*- law enforce ment law? o If zli the business men of Little ! Rock took as great an interest in the I fair as has been taken by the school ; children of the rural districts there | would be no question but that it would I be made a permanent institution.— | Arkansas Democrat. The same is true in Batesville. There were more than 100 farmers who had exhibits at the fair here, to say nothing of the boys and girls | clubs. And it is just possible that the merchants all saw the exhibits. SOCIAL HAPPENINGS OF THE WEEK IN BATESVILLE । •Concluded from i’&ge One.l Brewer-Webber Wedding. The marriage ceremony of Mr. Frank Brewer and Miss Marie Web ber was solemnized at 5 o’clock Wed nesday afternoon, October 15, at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Webber, who are widely known and well established among the best families of our city. Mr. ’ Webber is deputy United States mar shal. Mr. Frank Brewer, the grooirt, I ranks as one of the most successful 1 financiers of this section of Arkan ' sas, and is preparing a handsome I home on upper Main street. The bride has many charms and graces added to unusual natural abil ity, having filled with ease and credit j the position of cashier in a leading | mercantile establishment. She wore a going away gown of I blue ladies cloth with chiffon blouse । of contrasting shades, and carried a wonderful bouquet of lace fern, white I roses and orange blossoms. Her girlhood friends. Misses Eloise Livingston and Adele Lewis, were bridesmaids. They wore tailored suits and lingerie blouses, and it would be hard to find in our entire southland I two prettier girls. Mr. Robert Webber, brother of the ! bride, and the genial Mr. John! Baker complete the personnel of the wedding party. Next to these Mrs. Boisaubin of St. Louis attracted most admiration. She expects to celebrate her fiftieth an- ' niversary of marriage in December' next. She is very handsome and Kis many friends in Batesville who en- j joy her visits. The parlor was made beautiful with ‘ I white roses and lights made to reflect i a soft silvery flow. The circle of witnesses was small, ’ They circled themselves into the form i of a heart, the bridal couple st<x>d alone near the center of the indenta tion of the heart, the attendants and family in proper positions on either side with the smaller brother and I cousin at the point. The sound of Wagner’s “Here j Comes the Bride" was heard at a dis tance and the tempo set to the heart throbs of the wedding party Father Schlatterer condensed from the Roman Catholic marriage ritual all the historic and beautiful parts, which was preceded by a communion service for the bride at the church. He interpreted the prayers in a de vout manner and closed with an im pressive benediction in Latin. The confections served maintained Mrs. Webber’s reputation, which has so long been without competition as ani artiste, and the Individual cakes, dec orated with two silver hearts in one and different heart-shaped favors were the perfection of daintiness. A CONFESSION Hopes Her Statement, Made Public, will Help Other Women. Hines, Ala.—"l must confess”, says Mrs. Eula Mae Reid, of this place, "that Cardui, the woman's tonic, has done me a great deal of good. Before I commenced using Cardui. I would spit up everything I ate. I had a tired, sleepy feeling all the time, and was irregular. I could hardly drag around, and would have severe headaches con tinuously. Since taking Cardui, I have entirely quit spitting up what I eat. Everything seems to digest ail right, and I have gained 10 pounds in weight.” If you are a victim of any of the numer ous ills so common to your sex, it is wrong to suffer. For half a century, Cardui has been re lieving just such ills, as is proven by the thousands of letters, similar to the above, which pour into our office, year by year. Cardui is successful because it is com | posed of ingredients which act specifically i on the womanly constitution, and helps build the weakened organs back to health and strength. Cardui has helped others, and will help you, too. Get a bottle today. You won't regret it. Your druggist sells it. n’rilz to : Chattanooga Med kI ne Co.. Ladles' Ad visory Dept.. Chattanooga.
