Well, It Was Coming
to Him!
Over in Oklahoma, during the
progress of a “farewell meeting”
to encourage the boys of the lo
cal military company, a socialist
present expressed a devout wish
that “everyone who goes to Mex
ico will be planted there,” min
ing that he hoped no United
States soldier would return alive.
A Wewokan very promptly
floored the man with his fist and
continued the pummeling process
until the recumbent individual
was considerably the worse for
wear. Later, when he was able
to arise and walk, he was chas

Personal difficulties and fisti
cuffs are not incidents to be

Ana yet we wonder if the fel

utterance to a sentiment like
that in any public gathering in
this country and get away with
it.
At any rate, if he did, he
knows better now.
Roosters always have some

About the best way to get

Well, anyhow, it would be a
lovely June if it were not for the
weather and the politics.
We have an almost irresis table
inclination to write a beautifully
euphonistic paragraph about Ar

may rain by the time this page

If Amendment No. 12 is
adopted, school districts will
still be free to levy upon them

The Arrogant
Gringo.
The Mexicans are displaying
growing bitterness toward the
“vile" gringo.
We are not informed as to the
specific ground for their bitter
ness but we imagine they thirst
for the blood of Uncle Sam for
the following reasons:
A large American army has
been encamped on Mexican soil
for many months and in that
time has committed no act of

Republic.
It has burned no ranches, bom
barded no cities, cut the hands
and feet off no women, and loot
ed no mines.
It has tortured no children,
seized no Mexican millionaires to
hold for ransom, and comman
deered no herds of cattle or
stocks of merchandise.
The American soldiers have
neither butchered, outraged, sto
len no destroyed.
They have kindly removed
from mundane existence a few
of the hordes of professional as
sassins and robbers who are re
sponsible for the present dev
astation of a once rich and pros
perous country.
The American army has shot
no provisional presidents against
an adobe wall.
The American army has turn
ed loose hundreds of dollars in
Mexico that are real dollars. It
has paid the Mexican people cash
for everything it has received
and has made existence and in
dustry safe in regions where
formerly terrorism existed.
It will readily be'seen that all
these actions are in direct con
travention of the noble ideals of
the self-respecting and fervidly,
almost violently, patriotic Mexi
can. They figure that the actions
of the American soldiers have
been an insult to and an outrage
upon every red-blooded and
thieving Son of the Fatherland.
Hence the despicable and unut
terable gringo should be driven
forth, with bells and banners.

William J. Bryan, it is re
ported, will speak at Helena
at an early date. It is said that
he will discuss political issues
and incidentally urge the voters
of Arkansas to support Amend
ment Nos. 12 and 13, both of
which he has heretofore strong
ly endorsed.
A sign in a Concordia, Kansas
garage reads: ‘‘Don’t smoke

tank. Even if you aren’t worth

The Hen Stayed on
the Job.
‘‘The storm of Monday norht
of town carried a setting hen,
the nest and eggs a distance of
i mile and deposited them in an
other barn. She had been set
ting 13 days and when found the
next day the eggs were all hatch
ed. The neighbors say that the
eggs were hatched in transit and
the prematurity was caused by
velocity. It’s some storm that
will cut eight days off of na
ture.’’—Lonoke County News.

We are still having plenty of
rain, but it’s interspersed with
sunshine and everybody is still
busy.
A car of Irish potatoes was
being loaded at Ratcliff and to
rush the completion of the load
they offered to pay $1.30 cents
per bushel Tuesday and Wednes
day and some of our neighbors
dug quickly and got it, but others
who dug two days later only got
75 cents.

Lots of grain has been cut and
of course that cuts the bill for
the “boughten” feeds.
Old corn is scarce and selling
for one dollar per bushel.
Mai Council came in from
Florida the 9th and as he had
not done a days work in the
sun (he had been grading and
packing tomatoes) since March
he has been busy getting used to
the direct rays of Old Sol so as
to be able to go to the harvest in
the northwest the last of June.
Dew berries are ripe and gone,j
but lots of them were gathered j
and made into pies or canned, j
Blackberries are now getting |
ripe and are as fine as I ever j
saw. The cherry crop was a
complete failure.
Several are making kraut and
others will make later, and all

of so manv not feeling well.
Mrs. Council has been with
her daughter, Mrs. Bryan, since
Tuesday and will stay this week.
The Way to Raise Hogs.
R. D. Hill is raising hogs at
Effa for 21 cents per pound
dressed. He raised and salted
down 3500 pounds of meat at a
cost of $95.00. He has a ber
muda pasture,' rape field, sor
ghum field, peanut field, so ar
ranged that when one crop is
grazed off another is ready. For
instance, the hogs graze on rape
until eaten off near the ground
then the hogs are turned on sor
ghum while the rape is growing
another crop.
Mr. - Hill is one of our most
progressive men. Two of his
daughters finished at the Rus

one son finished at Ouachit^
another is attending Ouachiuv/‘
