The Democratic primaries for state
offices will be held next Saturday,
March 26, and at this time there will
close one of the most interesting cam
paigns ever held in the state. For al
most year the people have been lis
tening to the presentation Of the
claims of candidates for office. The
race for governor OF the state has
been the most interesting and has Ell
treIy oyershadowed all the others.
Many voters do not even know tha.
there are three candidates fer attor-
ney general two for state auditor,
four for chief justice. TWO for associate
justice and three for railroad commits
sioner The gdbernatorial campaign
has been the one topic of eonvel@a
ton and on it the lime light of pub
lie interest is centered. Not since
the days OF reconstruction has so
much for the party good and peoples
welfare been at stake. and upon the
issue depends the future welfare Of
the state. The keynote, No Third
Term in the Democratic Party" has
been sounded and from Moark on the
north to TeXarkana On the south, from
Fort Smith on the west to Bridge
Junction on the east, the party tocsin
has been sounded calling men to the
front.
The campaign started in May. 1903
with four candidates in the race: Jeff
Davis of Pope, Carroll D. Wood of
Drew, A. F. Vandeventer of Conway,
and NJ. J. Manning of Monroe Mr.
Manning withdrew early in the fight,
because of business reasons. In jan
uary, 1904, Mr. Vandeventer withdrew,
giving as his reasons that he saw h.
could not win, and the race narrowe
down to two Norwood and Davis
1t has been a campaign of one long
year fraught with the discussion of
! men and not measures. On one side
has been arrayed the men who declare
against a third term and a continu-
| ance of one man in power with the
motto: "No third term and good, clean
politics in Arkansas On the other
has been lined up those who believe
their candidate needs vindication, and
who are determined to follow him
through to the end. Unlike all other
campaigns, Gov. Davis has not beer
able to array the country folks against
| the city folks. Raised country boy
always a poor man, Judge Wood has
! won many admirers among those who
till the loil and labor with their
| hands, and it has not been a campaign
of one class of people against ar
other.
Many of the other candidates have
been conducting their campaigns
! quietly and when the voting time
comes. will not be forgotten. The
official ballot is as follows:

DISCUSSES FINANCES OF
RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT.

Washington. Oct. THE financial
condition of Russia to-day, with par
ticular reference to the ability of the
Russian treasury to meet the enormous
war expenses, were discussed tonight
by Gregory Vilenkine, the financial
agent of the Russian embassy, in an
interview with the Associated Press.
Mr.. Vilenkine said:
AS a whole the war expenditure of
Russia from the beginning of the cam
paign until the end of the year, may
be approximately placed at from 625 to
650000,000 roubles. With regard to the
means for the covering of this expen-
diture unforeseen by the budget, it
must be remarked that the reserve in
the government treasury after the COW
ering of all outstanding expenditures,
according to the budget of 1904,
amounted to 1870, 100000 roubles, to
which sum there must be added 1885,
100000 roubles of economies realized by
the curtailing of already sanctioned ex-
penditures for the current year, also
100000 roubles realized from the is
sue of per cent. treasury bonds, and
100000 roubles from 3.6 per cent.
treasury bills. The government treas
ury thus has at its disposal approx
mately 700.000,000 roubles, which is
quite sufficient for the covering of the
above expenditures without applying to
any new loans"

TROUBLE OVER FOUNDLINGs.
An Alleged Attempt to Sell Waits
From New York.


Phoenix, Ariz., Oct. 7.-According to
the most reliable advices obtainable
regarding the troubles at Morenci,
Ariz., mining town in Graham coun-
~, over the alleged attempt to sell
foundlings from New York city, the
situation is not as serious as has been
reported.
Reliable advices from Clifton, a town
near Morenci, are that forty children
were sent out by the New York Found
ling and Orphan Asylum. Sixteen of
these were placed in families at Cliff
ton and twenty-four were taken to
Morenci, where the majority of them
were placed with poor Mexican fam
lilies. The American residents of Mo-
renci objected to the children being
placed with a class of Mexicans who,
they claimed, were entirely untitled to
have care of them. An Indignation
meeting was held at Clifton and re-
suited in the arrest of G. w. Swayne,
the agent of the asylum, and the local
priest.
The purpose of Swayne and his as
sstants seems to have been to place
the children with Catholic families in
this section, of whom there are but
few, except Mexicans. While charges
have been made that the children were
being sold, there appears to be moth
ing to substantiate this claim.
