CHARGES DONATIONS
For pruoth Sufferers Are Being Placed
so as to Help Jeff Davis in
His Race.

The expected has happened When
jeff Davis was forced by the Demo
crat to make an appeal for aid in be-
half of the drouth stricken sufferers
of northeastern Arkansas, we We're
apprehensive lest he and his hench-
men should mix politics with cause
which appeals directly to humanity
and thus prevent public spirited cltl-
zens from contributing through the
avenues which he had designated. we
have observed, too. that many large
financial institutions which might
have contributed otherwise have held
back since it was known that Jeff was
to handle the money. To many this
indicated suspicion in the minds OF
these institutions that JEFF and his
henchmen would not hesitate to make
the recipients of relief funds feel that
they we're under obligations to him.
We had hoped that these fears were
groundless and that the funds would
be distributed as those who contribute
ed them intended. but behold the re-
suit. On the first visit Of county Of
flcers from the drouth stricken dis
tricts they are made to feel the neces.

possible that their bodies may be in

tests. There were only two contests
Reinberger and Coleman for city at.

neither of these contests created any
