HAS INVESTIGATED RECORD
Declares That a Vote for Brundidge
for Governor is a Vote for Clean
Government.
The following editorial, with refer- J
enoe to Stephen Brundidge’s candidacy i
for the governorship, was written by
•7 R. Taylor and published in the lat
ter s paper, the Paragouid Soliphone.
The Soliphone is not, by any means,
• he personal organ of Mr. Rmndidge
or any other man. The Soliphone be
lieves that Mr Brundidge ought to be
elected governor of Arkansas for the i
good of the state and for no other rea
son. The condemns demand it if the
best interests of Lie s ate are to be
subserved. Many rood and true men, 1
who are in close touch with existing !
conditions, are of the same opinion.
It. is being told, by the opposition to |
Mr. Brundidge in this county, that he 1
is not a man of good morals and that j
he does not stand well in his own
county. On this point we have mad*
some investigations and along thU
line we wan: to euote some ex pres- i
eions from t: et whom the p> !e of ;
Greene com; y tru.~. .
Rev. VV. < \ Woo i. Mr sex era', years
Pastor of the Uawi-t -hurcii it; Searcy, j
the home town of Mr. Brundidge, and
for several ■ ■ ars past pastor of th
First IJapi;-: church in Paragouid.;
tells us hat Mr. Brundidge s-and-s at ,
the :: out rank in Searcy au i Wiiife 1
1' 'J' • ‘ ao ci iii cl la awi no .n
considered honest and a man of great
ability.
“Rev. M. M. Smith, presiding elder i
of the Paragould district, says he has j
known Mr. Brundidge twelve years, ;
was th*> Methodist pastor in Scare.- i
and knows that Mr. Brundidge Is a
man of fine standing among his lion: ■ j
people, has more personal friends than
any other man in White county, is ,
scrupulously honest and a eader of j
men. Mr. Brundidge, he says. Is a
very charitable man and is a free giv
er to ali calls for charity and does
much to help those who are in dis
tress.
“J. G. Hall, a well known business
man of Paragould and a leading mem
ber of the Baptist church, says he
lived In Searcy twelve years. He say,
that no man in White county stands
higher than Brundidge and that he is
for Brundidge for governor or any
other position to which he may aspire.
He doesn’t think there is any position
too big for Brundidge to fill.
“J. E. Childs, a well known traveling
man of Paragould, also a prominent
member of the Baptist church, who
formerly lived in Searcy, agrees with
the other gentlemen above quoted.
“Rev. T. B. Williamson, one of the
best known men In Greene county,
who is know-n to be truthful and one
of the most solid men in the county,
says he has known Brundidge for
twenty years, that Brundidge is a man
of superb ability, strictly honest and
honorable in politics as well as in
business matters and that his standing
with his home people is par excellence.
"Recently a newspaper published at
Kensett, in White county, passed some
aspersions on Mr. Brundidge and ar
ticles from the paper have been print
ed in circular form and distributed
over the state by the management of
the Hays headquarters. The people of
Kensett were indignant over these
publication and held a mass meeting
■ • • A1 vnnrtlilt !r\ng I
(U WUU/U tUC/ *
were unanimously adopted:
“ ‘Be it resolved that—
«'l. We deplore the fact that the
Keynote, a paper published in our
town, should make an unwarranted at
tack on the Hon. S. Brundidge, White
county’s candidate for governor. That
said paper does not reflect the senti
ment of this community or of White
county.
“‘2. That Mr. Bruididge has always
carried Kensett township, as well as
the town of Kensett, and will carry
both by a larger majority In his pres
ent race for governor.
•• *3. That this mass meeting ex- J
presses unfailing confidence in Mr.
Brundidge as a man, and in his wis
dom as a statesman, and heartily re
commend him to the voters of the
state as a man of unblemished private
character, and one whose official rec
ord as prosecuting attorney and con
gressman is absolutely without a stain.
« <4, That we pledge omr unqualified
support to him in the present contest
and present him to the democracy of
the state of Arkansas as one who,
when elected governor, will go into
the office absolutely unpledged to any
faction or interest save that of a rig
id enforcement of the law and a clean
and honest administration of the af
fairs of the state.’"
“There are 105 voters at the Kensett
box and 95 of them signed these reso
lutions.
"Then you ask why did Jeff Davis :
carry White county and why has I
Brundidge lost it in other campaigns
The answer is easy. Beebe is located
in the southern portion of White coun- j
tv and the territory tributary to that j
town represents about one-third of
the voting strength of the county. •

NO MAN-FLY ON M0NUMEN1
Sre-at Commotion at Oapitai on Re
port That New Yorker Was
Scaling Shaft.
Rumors that a New York “human
fly,” who ha* been scaling oflfloe build
Ings In that city, was climbing th<
side of the 555-foot Washington monu
ment, gave this city no end of excite
ment the other day.
Someone discovered a black spot oi
the side of the shaft, about 150 fee!
from the top, and then the report
started.
Hundreds rushed toward the monu
ment grounds, a half mile from tbs
center of the city. Along Pennsyl
vanla avenue crowds collected at ev
ery corner and window* and door
wnya rapidly filled with people.
Newspaper photographers, whe
were early on the scene, and othei
Investigators brought back word thal
the supposed figure was only a apol
left by last night’s heavy rain; but uf
to an early hour gazers on Pennayl
Tania avenue still insisted they could
see the figure move.
Tha war department, which con
trols the monument, was bealeget
with telephone calls.
Nearly three hours after the flrs<
explanation a telephone message from
the capttol said that congressmen
were watching the spot through opera
glasses, and were convinced it occa
aionally moved a little.

He wished to have an appropriation
of a million dollars or so from cow

celestial points.
Kahn didn’t like to offend the mas
with a flat refusal of congress to »P

"We have gone over the situation

Hopes i ier Statement, Made Public,

i
, Hines. Ala.—“i must confess”, says
! Mrs. Hula Mae Reid, of tins place, "that
j Cardui, the woman’s tonic, has done me
i a great deal of good.
! Before 1 commenced using Cardui. I
i would spit up everything i ate. I had a
, tired, sleepy feeling a!! the time, and was
; irregular. "I could hardly drag around,
! and would have severe headaches con
I tinuously.
Since taking Cardui, i have entirely
quit spitting up what 1 eat. everything
seems to digest all right, and 1 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 sutler.
i 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
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.
