each Paper seems insignificant, yet IN
the aggregate it may be quite large to
the congressional aspirant with small
financial resources.
The candidate may also take into
consideration that the paid announce
ment does not change the paper that
has declared it's opposition to him,
hence an announcement in that paper
may be money wasted. However, in
viewing it from that standpoint the
candidate should not forget that many
newspapers make no declaration for
this or that candidate until the an
the candidates and then usually Go
clare for the candidate who "sugared'
them first. The astute candidate does
not fail to grasp the opportunity ri
getting in on the ground floor by
planting first with newspapers of that
class his announcement before the
other fellows do.
1t is also true that there are news
papers who will not declare for any
candidate if they all place their an
nouncements, and the artful candi
date does. not fail to silence those fel-
lows by placing his announcement
last, if he cant get in first 1t is 2
good investment.
There are other newspapers which
have the independence to declare for
their faVorite. but If the other can
aidates place their announcements tn
editor is not 50 aggressive in his SUP
port Of his fayolite ana he is exceed
mgly mild in his opposition to the
@ther candidates. It PAYS to place an
announeomnt with that Eind Of :,
newspaper even If the candidate has
to borrow the money to do it.
Then there is another class of news
papers which blow FOR all the candi
dates who plant an announcement.
That kind of paper isn't worth mucn
It's opposition would be better thar
its support, because a glance at the
announcement column would make SO
that it could be regarded only with
| disgust.
There is still another class of news.
papers. of which the Graphic is one,
which are not governed in their choice
Of candidate for congress by paid
| announcements. They select the can
didate they believe to be the best
qualified in every respect for the
place. leaning. of course. to county
favorite if he is worthy, and then give
him their support, regardless Of
whether ne places an announcement
or not
However, the custom of announcing
in the papers is one that has existed
50 long, and has become SO we'll and
so popularity established that the
Graphic seriously doubts the political
wisdom Of the candidate who ignores
it. 1t is at least the best means OF
getting his candidacy before the
greatest number OF people.

A NOV 81 TRUST.

9-
Over in tho Seventh congressional
District some OF the newspapers are
}sichiug vigorously at what they cail a
~ new and n9get Kind of tiU&t which
has been organized By the three eandi
dates for congress. 1t is alleged that
she candidates have entered into ail
agreement by which not one of tie
1hree is to put his announcement ct
his candidacy in any Of the neWspa
pers OF the district Commenting on
the so-cailed trust the North Little
Rock Sentinel says:
The Warren Democrat-News states
thau it has information that the thre
Democratic candidates for congress in
the Seventh district have entered into
AIN agreement not to announce thei.
candidacy through the medium of the
newspapers. II this be a fact and <
seems to be, as their announcement
mas not Appeared Sc far. although they
have made an active canvass Of the
district, then some more liberal, broad
%0age man than either of them ap
pear to be should announce himself
and snow them under so deep thu t
they would never again be heard
from
The party organization can only be
kept up to anything like proper
,tnr aud -
regular papers. and these papers have
right to expect a reasonable fea
from each candidate who seeks the
support of the party they represent.
After this fee is paid the paper never
gets another cent from political
sources until two years have rolled
around, yet it is expected to carry the
nominees in it's columns. take up their
fight if they have one, devOting col
arm after column to the party and il $
ndidates, publish the announce
me,ts of all speakings. and many
other things connected with the cam
paign for which not one penny is
charged. Justice and fairness demand
that the candidates in the Seventh dis
trict should hold to the Old custom Of
announcing themselves through the
party papers and if they form trust
TO beat the newspapers, then the
newspapers shauld rctOliate by ignor-
ing these candidates, and if possible
get OUT some good man to go against
them. We are sure if this is don" thu
~mst'ice=loying people of that district
will administer a strong rcbuke to Il
set of candidates who would adopt
such niggardiy means to save few
dollars"
The Hot Springs News also has
something to say about the trust IL
the Seventh district. and incidentally
remarks that it looks like a similar
trust had been formed by the congress
sional candidates in the Sixth district.
and then asks. What do the boys Of
the Democratic press think of it
AS for the Graphic it is matter
which it has given no thought at all
except as its opinion was asked by
the News
1t is question which is somewhat
difficult to answer satisfactorily from:
the standpoint of the candidate and
that of the newspaper at the same
time.
The candidate may be Il person Of
very limited cash assets and not feel
that he is ahla to incur the expense of
placing paid standing announce
ment IN every Democratic newspaper

Squire r. S. Menefee went immed
lately TO the scene Of the killing
where he reports he found Joe Hold
anek in the arms of death from the
effects of gun-shot wound in the
right side of the face. just under
the eye. The gun used by Hrvoda
was ~ gauge breech- loading shot
gun and only one shot was fired.
A six shooter was found lying n
the ground by thsside of Hodanek'4
body. Two empty shells,two shells
snapped but failed to discharge and
two good cartridges remained.
The only eye.witnesses to the
killing, except the participants, was

ntes the statement made by her
husband that Hodanek was trying
to enter their home, pistol in hand

then killed him.
The affair is deeply deplored.
