VOLUME IV. - NEWPORT, ARKANSAS. THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER i. I90L NUMBER 109.
$ TEMPERANCE COLUMN. $
To the voters of Jackson coun
ty I submit below an editorial
of the Paragould Soliphone, based
upon the statement of the prose
cuting attorney of that district,
Hon. S. R. Simpson, who has
taken the stump for the prohibi
■npiion cause. Of you I ask if the
^Tar)?ument set forth does not ap
. p(y to Jackson as well as other
/counties.
^ T urge upon you that your vote
be cast against license. Be sure
to begin tn?king out your ticket
from the bottom, and upon the
issue of “for or against” license,
scratch out “for license” every
time. J. E. Wilmans.
SIMPSON’S STRONG ARGUMENT.
K The showing made by Mr. S.
Simpson of the expense of
^ prosecuting crime arising from
the whiskey traffic is really appall
ing and furnishes one of the
strongest arguments of the cam
paign.
The figures and facts given are
worthy of serious consideration
\ and should put every intelligent
°at person to thinking. They should
K^onveht to the cause of temper
IHance every man who believes or
IP Pretends to believe that the whis
■ key license revenue is a good
W\ ig for the county.
f < according to Mr. Simpson’s
K jtatement the trial of Vowell for

BACKACHE AND DIZZINESS,
Mo9t of the Ailments Peculiar to th«
Female Sex are Due to Catarrh
- of Pelvic Organ*.
...
i
| MRS. M. BRICKNER.
99 Eleventh Street, I
Milwaukee, Wis. $
“A short time ago l found my con
dition very serious, / had headaches,
pains in the back, and frequent dizzy
spells which grew worse every month.
I tried two remedies before Peruna,
and was discouraged when I took
the first dose, but my courage soon
returned. In less than two months
my health was restored.”—-Mrs. M.
Brickner.
The reason of so many failures tc
cure cases similar to the above is the
fact that diseases
FEMALE TROUBLE peculiar to the
NOT RECOGNIZED }emale sex ar€
AS CATARRH. Stx a™
I.. .i... not commonly
recognized as being caused by catarrh.
Catarrh of one organ is exactly the
same as catarrh of any other organ
What will cure catarrh of the head will
also cure catarrh of the pelvic organs
Peruna cures these cases simply because
it cures the catarrh.
If you have catarrh write at once tc
Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement ol
your case, and he will be pleased to give
you his valuable advice gratis.
Address Hr. Hartman, President oi
The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, O,
.’eared, the $6,000 revenue t(
Craighead county arising from its
doz n saloons will be wined out
with a possible deficit in the sa
loon account.
Ordinarily what applies to ar
individual will apply to a com
munity of individuals or to t
county. The individual wh<
squanders hjs earnings for drinl
usually has-'VJor credit, a ne
glected family and little money
A community of drinkers wouk
be a community of paupers, ex
cept those who fatten upon th<
rum traffic. A county given t<
drink, where the open saloon ii
maintained, must of necessity
share a similar fate, No counti
can prosper with open saloons
where the county receives only i
SMALL proportion of the spoil
and assumes all the financia
responsibility of criminal prose
cutions arising from the traffic.
If the saloon keeper was re
quired to give bond for the pay
ment of all costs in the crimina
courts arising from the whiske:
traffic how many men do you sup
pose would take out license? Ye
the county would, for the pitifu
sum of $500, turn an open salooi
loose, to run at large and say ii
effect, “Go it, boots, and we’l
foot the bills.”
Now many voters in Green
' county want to form a co-part
■ nership with the open saloons
f by which you will get a rake-of
i of $500 and undertake to pay al
! the costs arising from the traffic
l Wouldn’t you, as an individua
having property to make you
s obligations good, consider it
; bad business proposition to ac
■ cept from any saloon keeper $45
) and for that consideration agre
5 to pay all the criminal court cost
; that might arise from the open
r tion of the saloon? As an ind
i vidual you wouldn’t do it becaus
l you would be afraid that som
1: drunken fellow would kill som*
t body and it would cost a thou:
> and or two thousand dollars 1
3 try the case. If y°u as an irK
vidual would not make such a
deal how can you honestly vote
to have your county do so? Don't
you think that successful county
financiering requires the same
application of business principles
that make individual financiering
a success? If you do, how can
vote for your county to enter into
a business scheme that you as an
individual would consider very
hazardous? If you are a truly
patriotic citizen you won’t do it,
you will vote against license.
GRAVE ROBBERY
CASES CALLED.
Roberts and Lightle May Ask for
Change of Venue, Hoping to
Have Case Sent to Bald
Knob or Beebe.
Searcy, Aug. 31.—The prelim
inary trial of three men on
charges growing out of the al
leged attempt of Dr. R.G. Lightle
qnd others to swindle certain life
insurance Companies is set for to
morrow morning at 10 o’clock in
Justice W. E. Harlin’s court
here. There are three defend
ants, Dr. Lightle, John V. Rob
, erts and Walter Gregory, and the
charge will be that of violating
the grave.
Gregory returned to Searcy to
night, in company with S. M.
Powell and several other insur
ance agents. This is the first
time Gregory has been in Searcy
since he gave bond, over a week
ago, and no one here seems to
know where he has been. It is
generally thought that he is to
make a clear breast of the whole
affair. This opinion is shared by
1 Roberts and Lightle.
' Roberts denies that Senator
i Clarke has refused tp defend
him, and says7 that he has re
■ toined Hon. Jos. M. Stayton,
Judge M. M. Stuckey and Hon.
i Gustave Jones, of Newport, to
• defend him, and that he has
letters from Judge E. G. Mitch
» ell, Frank Pace, of Harrison, and
: H. A. Parker of Clarendon and
• from about thirty other promi
i nent attorneys and friends, who
l volunteer to assist in his defense
■ if necessary.
; It appears certain, from indi
> cations tonight, that the defend
i ants will ask for a change of
- venue tomorrow, with the hope
r of sending the case to either
Beebe or Bald Knob.
