For county and probable clerk. The Star is to announce will Alexander As candidate for the office of county and probate clerk of Polk county second Ter subject to the action of the democratic primary. A word for the Star s county school edition the primary purpose of this num Ber of the Star is to place before St much of the world As comes within its scope the excellent schools of Polk county. The fact is that in no other Way can a country and its peo ple be so accurately aged. Where the school spirit the will to provide the Best educational advantages for the sons and daughters is at High tide All other Good things if not Al ready at hand certainly Are within reach. This line spirit in Polk county is typified first in tin readiness shown he f i o Hio Nihn Treme limit of the taxing Power to support the schools. When the institutional amendment raising this limit from 7 to 12 Mills was placed before them it was favored by an overwhelming majority with the Power in their hands a great pro portion of the Polk county school districts voted a Lux in excess of the old limitation and a Good Many for the extreme limit of 12 Mills. The result is now becoming apparent. Better school houses Are being built More teach ers employed and longer terms of i Hoo provided. And the work Lias but begun. to he schools when the average investigator wants to learn of a Community particularly of its business scope and opportunities he refers at once to the advertising columns of a representative news paper and in this Issue the Star is giving in its advertising columns the most comprehensive Advertis ing directory Ever printed in Polk county. Everyone concedes that the Best business institutions always advertise and the Star is evidence that there Are Many of the Best in its territory. Of course there Are Good concerns that shy at the advertising Man but such Are grow ing less and less just As it becomes common knowledge that honorable business thrives in the Light of publicity Fiat the honest placing be fore the Public of one s wares is both morally right and Good business. All readers far and near Are invited to study the business institutions of Polk county thru advertisements in this Issue. And last it would not be loins Justice to fail to express the Star s appreciation of the labor put Forth by pm fwd Hamer Pigg. Polk coun Tyus Earnest and Able superintend ent of schools in preparing thu copy securing the illustrations Anc organizing the school Section of this Issue. Tie Star appreciates Thoro dogs and accuracy in is if it work and both have been conspicuous it this Effort. And it would be a ver ungrateful people who realizing the labor and thought involved would not thank professor Pigg for s splendidly placing Polk county ant her schools before the world. And thu Star rejoices in the of � port Unity to offer its equipment mechanical and otherwise to sue i r an Enterprise. If an object is needed to show ii l what Light Germany regards no trial nations and to verify her is a intimate of a treaty As a scrap o i paper the Fate of Norway is am pie for the purpose. That nation i altho adhering scrupulously to i i policy of neutrality has lost hundreds of ships by German submarines and mines and not less thai 5,000 lives with them. No one of the Allied countries navies have suffered to the extent that norwegian shipping has suffered. Lbs it is not usual but again it is tin exception that proves the Rule there arc some Earnest believers in and workers for the education o their children who do not think i1 Worth while to have the local news paper in their Homos. Some weather this. There is no denying that the Cole and storm of recent Days is the worst Mena has Ever seen and the end is not at hand. It would seem now that it has started there is to be Vennt lira in rain sleet and Snow to make up for the Long dry season and this despite the cold. Perhaps the most remarkable condition developed was a rain of More than an Inch with tempera Ture ranging Frim 28 to 32, and no Prece table reduction in the depth of Tho Snow covering the ground. Yes this is mightly bad weather for Polk county but theress a lol worse. If you doubt it read Aboul what is going on All Over the coun try. Have you thought you the com Plain at the discomforts of the weather of the thousands of sons and Brothers in the War Camps in our own country and in France for circuit judge. The Star in this Issue is publish ing the formal announcement of judge James 8. Steel of Ashdown As candidate for circuit judge of the ninth judicial circuit. Judge steel is one of the bes known men in this District. H served in the same position to which be How aspires Tor years and by his genial personality has won to him self a Host of warm friends and admirers. Since retiring from the Bench years ago judge steel has been the senior member of the Law firm of steel & Lake a firm that has ranked very High in the profession. There Are few if any men better equipped for the position of Cir Cuit judge than is judge James s steel. For school superintendent Tom j.

A former Polk coun 11 to Man writing from Strong Ark to renew his allegiance to the Star encloses an interesting Flippini from the Union county Tribune e 1 Dorado Ark., which is a letter fron Hamp Williams of hot Springs Alst a former Polk county resident am now Federal food administrator Foi Arkansas. F or Williams letter is to j. In Haines editor of the Tribune am says and i can remember very Wel Whon you published a Good paper 30 years ago Back in Polk county where we had Many very pleasant associations. This reference was respond silk for some backward glances and dig Ging into the past records of news paper publishing in Polk county and Here Are some of the results in March 1881, i. M. Haines above mentioned associated with w. M. Armour established the dal Las Pioneer at Dallas. A copy of this identical paper. Volume 1, number 1, the first Issue of any paper printed in Polk county has been pre served by minor Pipkin and by his kindness is at this time in the pos session of the writer Ami contains historical matter of interest Thal May be Given to readers of the Stai at an Early Day. The Pioneer Plant was taken Over a oui a year from us installation by Green have & Marr who moved it to by Thesda Springs and started the Bethesda Springs Herald sometime afterwards the Herald suspended publication and the plan became the property of t. M. Car Der who began the publication of the Mountain signal. For a time w. T. Mccauley who was a Printer and married carders daughter con ducted the paper and this same Mccauley the Star is informed is now an officer of the state court Al fort Smith. The signal was in the fall of 188s, bought by Vav. M. Matheny arid in the summer of 1886 was rechristened As the Dallas courier at which time minor Pipkin entered the office and after 1 months apprenticeship had full charge of the mechanical department soon after which some Exchange complimented the paper on its improved appearance. This is a Bright spot in or. Pipkins memory. In 1888 or. Matheny went Back to his old Home in Baxter Springs has., and or. Pipkin look full charge and remained in charge until the fall of 1889, when Matheny returned. In 1890 or. Pipkin and Alec Griz Zard bought the paper and in the same fall sold it to col. P. H. Rice and j. R. Lane. About 1891 s. L. Lindsay started a Eom putative paper the referendum which is said to be the first paper in the United states using that name. Or. Lindsay later bought the courier consolidating the two papers but standing by the name of his first Choice. In 1896 lie sold Bis paper to minor Pipkin and Janies s. Compere who revived the original name the Dallas courier. Just before the Kansas City Pitts Burg a Gulf Railroad now the k. C. A. Reached Mena and Polk county or. Pipkin moved the Plant to men and opened business where the 1 1 Al. .4 m 4 via in it Tui us Vav Ana to it was named the new Era. In conformance to the changed con actions brought about his the com j ing of the steel rail and the Iron horse. A copy of the Glrst Issue of the new Era dated August 6, 1w0, and printed on Manilia wrapping paper because a shipment of regu Lar Stock failed to arrive has Bee preserved by or. Pipkin and also is before the writer. V Little later the new Era Plant was moved a a Little Frame building 1 now standing North of hotel Mena and Here m. W. Lindsay became a partner and later sole owner who shortly sold the Plant Stock paper and Good will to the Star which took on All the new Era subscribers and it is pretty certain some of these have been and yet Are con Stant and faithful Star readers. Most any regular Reader of the Star would readily recognize that something unusual had happened when observing the correspondence columns. Usually these occupy from five to seven or eight columns this week Only two. But the Short age was not altogether the fault of the correspondents. When the mail Hacks from the East gave up the contest with old King Sturm tues Day a lot of Good item were lost to the Star readers. And then too a few of the faithful _ writers May have done a Little surrendering to the weather on their own account extra copies. Extra copies of the school kid thai of the Star May be obtained by application at the office or by mail at 5c. Each. Preserve one for your own reference and if you have an interested Friend anywhere Send him one you will be doing some thing to spread the Good name old or county. To voters of Polk county j you will find my announcement for county superintendent for Polk county elsewhere in this paper. Like every candidate who has Ever entered a political race i have entered at the Earnest solicitation of friends. This of course is very 1 j much appreciated but two other things have assisted me in making my decision to enter the race. These Are first a feeling that i can 1111 1 that office creditably second trial j i want the office As much As my friends want me to have it. Por haps the last reason is the greatest j but had there not been the solicitation of friends 1 would not have thought of announcing and too i ? would not ask the people for a position that did not feel capable of filling. I have had six years experience in business and six years experience As i a teacher having aught seven terms in Polk county. My literary standing and reputation Are both open to investigation ? my political experience consists of having voted he democratic ticket since becoming a voter. Your support is earnestly solicited.

Huns scorned Law of nations m use of civilians As hostages and for screens part of Devilish system. First made use of in 1870 at that time it wat condemned by the civilized world but the Ger Man military leaders have never abandoned it. Ample proof that the March of the German armies through Belgium was marked by massacres and cruelties almost beyond belief is Given in a document made Public by the committee on Public information from which the following is taken the massacres in Belgium and Northern France were a part of the German system of fright ulness. An other feature of this system was the not Tel Titi Itsuo tin it Tiia to Auu ii screens. In discussing the use of hostages the German War Book Krieg Branch in Anys by hostages Are understood those persons who. Is Security or bail for the fulfilment of treaties promises or other claims Ere taken or detained by the opposing state or its army. Their provision has been less usual in re cent wars is a result of which some Ninffa in to of flip Law of n�i1nn Onva wrongly derided that the taking of hostages Hus disappeared from the practice of civilized new application of hostage rights was practice by the German staff in the War of 1870, when it compelled leading citizens from French towns and villages to accompany trains and locomotives in order to protect the railway communications which were threatened by the people. Since the lives of peaceable inhabitants were without any fault on their part there by exposed to grave danger every writer outside Germany Hus stigmatized this measure As contrary to the Law of nations and As unjustified to wards the inhabitants of the Clung to frightful Ness. Although their deeds in the Franco prussian War had been universally condemned As they themselves admit Ted. The leaders did not intend to abandon such a useful measure of fright ulness. In l interpret a mul tire the forms were provided for such acts in the next War. Both in Belgium tend in France the germans have con stantly used hostages. The evidence is contained in the proclamations of the governing authorities and also in the diaries of the German soldiers. A few examples from these will Illus trate the system which was employed.
