GOOD ROADS TRAIN.
Will Spend a Day in Denison
Next Month.
How TO MAKE DIRT ROADS
D. Ward King the Apostle of Good
Roads VIII BE Here April l3,!Lectus
ing Morning and Evening.

The Great Northwestern has still an
other educational gift 10 make to the pao-
pie Of this county this year. A Good
Roads train will be run and lectures will
delivered by s,r D. Ward King who
has become the leader of the good roads
movement in the west.
Mr.. Henry Wallace seems to be en-
titled TO the credit of melting this move
meut for the benefit of Iowa roads. From
his paper. Wallaces Farmer, we learn
that Mr.. King has TO deal only with the
common dirt road, the roads of Iowa and
Missouri, His talk is not about mac
ladamizing or expensive road machines, it
is talk about just such roads as we have
in Crawford county, how to keep them
| we'll drained and in comparatively good
condition the year around. The exper-
iment was tried in Sac comfy under Mr.
Kings plans last year and twenty-three
miles of road were kept in good condition
the entire year at a cost of between dol.
lar and two dollars and half per mile
1t appears to US that this is just the
kind of a road we have been looking for
and cussing curse Ives blue in the face
because we did not have. The loss to the
farmers of this county on account of bac
roads amounts to thousands of dollars eact

plan does not involve additional expense,
but is meant to aid in seeing that the mon
ey is expended to the best advantage
We would suggest that every farme
should be present and especially should
every road supervisor and township trustee
be on hand. The board of supervisor
should also be present and if possible tn

GOOD ROADS TRAIN.

The management of the Chicago &
North Western Railway has, through
Mr. Henry Wallace, editor of Wallaces S
Farmer, arranged with Mr.. King 10 spend
sixteen days along its lines in Iowa and
tell the folks in fourteen different counties
how to make good roads for themselves
without any expense to speak of and with
very little labor when applied at exactly
the right time Mr.. King is an entertain
ing talker and he knows what he talks
about. His methods have stood the test
of practical experience.
The Good Roads Gospel movement
will be conducted in much the same man
ner as the North-Western's corn gospel
trains which have pro.ed of such valne to
the people along its lines, but fewer meet
ings will be held and more time will be
given to each point. Following is
a list of the points and dates, at
which ,neatinoS will he hold.

is no good reason why the republicans
should not support their ticket They
will if they remember that the democrats
are always willing to take but never to
give. This has been the universal expe-
rience In this town. The democrats howl
about non partisanship when they have
something to gain by ii, but they can
never see republican if there is any
opportunity to reciprocate. All OF the
democratic candidates have been before
the people at a prior election save Mr..
Mailer, who is said to represent some
special street interests in the second ward.
Mr. Burch is such veteran candidate
that he needs no introduction as a candi
date of any party for any office.
Mr.. Thew is a retired farmer OF popu
listic rather than democratic tendencies.
He was defeated for alderman last year.
Mr. Mailer has been frequently spoken
OF as democratic candidate for this posi-
ton, although never nominated before.
He would undoubtedly be satisfactory to
the portion of the ward he represents
Mr.. Schnoor is good. straightforward
business man and just why phe should
have been marked for slaughter in the
Big Third" is more than we can under
stand. 1t was not kindness on the part
of his democratic friends to nominate him
The republican ticket is headed by J..
H. Walker. He is young attorney, who
has made his own way and earned his
own legal education. He has never been
afraid of hard work. He worked on the
section here in Denison, worked at any
employment that offered while at Iowa
City and he is gradually forging to the
i front by his determination, grit and perse-
verance. He is the kind Of young man
whom it is a pleasure to help and the
electors of Denison will show their appre-
citation of his worthy efforts by giving
him large majority.
To Mr.. Burch the election mea MS very
little. He is an old practitioner, man
who has had plenty of time and opportunity
to show the stuff that isin him. To Mr.
Walker the election means great deal.
1t means firm start, it means recogni-
ton of his merit as young, Woodworking
man. Let the republicans of Denisor
take off their coats, if need be. and show
the people that it is such young men thai
they delight to honor. Despite the diff
ference in their ages the candidates have
equal rank as attorneys in Denison. One
has his life-record largely behind him, the
other has his way to make and is full oi
energy and strength and determination tc
make his record good one.
In the first ward the redublicans have
taken occasion to give the lie to the Silk
Stocking" epithet by nominating a mar
who will tell you instanter that he is one
of the plain people. Mark Wright ha:
/ lived in Denison for more than third o

century and we have never heard 3any
man question his honesty or ability. He
is bluff, hale and hearty, but the rough
exterior covers a tender heart and a Welt
ordered mind He would make it his am
bition on the council to see that Denison
got value received for every dollar ex-
pended and the people could rely on him
to fulfill his promises. MIR, Wright has
always been stalwart republican He
has never sulked in his tent but has been
ready and willing at all times to lend a
helpiug hand The republicans of the
first ward cannot afford to go back on
Mark Wright. If they should it would
have a tendency to ALLEVIATE large ele-
ment of the party. We trust that Mr.
Wright will receive an old-time republican
majority in his ward.
In the second ward the republicans
have chosen an ideal candidate in Mr..
Thos. Nielsen. He is a man who has
who has earned his way through life. He
has shown his faith in Denison by invest
ing his all in one of the finest improve
ments to our city. He is faithful, in
telligent. law-abiding and self-respecting.
Mr.. Hoist, whose feiends presented
him to the caucus, is another man having
a splendid record as citizen and a re-
have made good candidates. AS it
is, we believe the republicans
will unite on Mr.. Nielsen with loyal
| ty and that he will command the votes OF
majority of the good citizens of the
ward
DIR. H c. Simpson is another self-made
man. Quiet, unassuming, gentlemanly,
he has earned high place in his profes
sion and in the hearts of the people ol
Denison. He is property owner, but
has no special interest to conserve We
predict his election by safe majority
While the hard and fast rule of partisan
ship is not always applied in municipa
affairs, yet we would warn the republican:
that they never yet have yielded an incl
that the democrats did not demand al
ell; they have never been magnanimou
without having it thrown at them by tn,
democrats as sign of weaknesa rather
than of good fellowship. They have
never known time when the democratic
party was ready and willing to recipro
cate.
The entire republican ticket should b
elected in Denison and every republican
who has the large things in mind as vel
as the.small things should help to win tn
victory Nothing would weaken the part
| in the county like a factional quarre
which might be engendered by republi
can defeat in this city.

.CAUCUSES ARE HELD.
Both Parties Place Tickets in
The Field.
WALKER. FOR SOLICITOR
Wright, Nielsen and Simpson For Al
derman, Compose the Republican
Ticket. Contest Good Natured.


The novelty of holding the caucuses of
both parties on the same evening and at
the same place drew large number to
the city caucuses held on Thursday night.
Although both caucuses were called for
the same hour the republicans agreed to
90 ahead and transact their business first.
At the general republican caucus that
veteran, stalwart DR. VIM. Iseminger was
called to the chair and Mr.. E. F Tucker
was made Secretary. On motion MIR.
H. Walker was nominated for City Solic-
itor by acoamaton and Mr.. ] E. Bale
was re. elected to the position of city com
mitteeman This being all the business
before it the general caucus adjourned and
the ward caucuses took place
The ward caucuses furnished surprises
all around In the first ward Mr.. Mark
Wright had been an active candidate
during the day and more than two-thirds
of the silk k-stocking'' ward was found
to be in his favor Several other candi
dates were voted for. but Mr. Wright re-
ceived good majority over all and was
declared the nominee.
4 The second ward developed close race
Sbetween Mr.. John F Hoist and Mr.. Thos
bNielsen. The informal ballot stood Hoist
six, Nielsen five. A formal ballot was
Y taken in which the figures were reversed
Sand Mr.. Nielsen was declared the ncmi
nee. On motion his nomination was
Enade unanimous.
The Big Third showed fine field of
candidates and it was anybodys race for
while. DR., H. C. Simpson soon became

THE BIG BLUFF FAILED

NEGROES cERs IN BATTLEVlLLE BUT OFFICERS CHARGED CROWD, WHICH DISPERSED ALL SUCCEEDED EscAPE-TWENTYFIVE
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1905-11-28

A fusilade of pistol shots at Battles vile, a suburb in the west end of the city, caused consternatsOn and the greatest commotion for q time Mon- day night. The rumpus was created by negroes, and the wonder grows that 10 one was hurt in the melee.
 It appears that late Monday night { message was received at police keadGuartars said that some negroes ir that end of town were engaged in ar altercation, and Night Chief John Perdue sent squad of officers out in the patro! wagon to round up the dis turbers. Officers Lockhart. 1. Par l.ell, Francis and McDermott accom- panied the wagon to the scene, and upon their arrival they found a large crowd of negroes congregated about tie place When the crowd of negroes saw the officers, they began their fu- silade, evidently with the intention of

Tn a lecture entitled, "Is Hypocrisy a Virtue or Crime" at the Y. M. c. A. Monday night, Rev. J. s. Hawkins, pastor of the First Methodist church, created the widest sensation by his remarks. Rev. Hawkins paid his re- spects in no uncertain terms to church politics and politicians. He gave an expose of the inside workings of his church in the matter of dis posing of it's ministers, and the talk vas highly instructive if not edifying. He referred to the opposition which had met his coming to Pine Bluff and Laid his respects not only to local church politics but got after some of the most conspicuous characters in Arkansas Methodism. The lecture from beginning to end was full of statements of sensational nature, and held the attention of even the closest interest of his hearerV through out

 But the officers did not scare worth {, cent. Instead one of them led the way by jumping 10 the ground and starting after the gang, which then broke and scattered The other mem bers of the posse followed their lead CT and n few moments white men were chasing negroes all over Battle vile. Unfortunately there were nc lights, and the night was dark as fades. and as a result all the negroes engaged in the trouble made their escape.
 T. is said that fully twenty-five or thirty shots were fired, and some of the bullets came perilously near hit tlne some of the officers Arrests may yet follow as a result of the shooting.

 Mr. Dinsmore continued to de. nsunce Governor Davis for ihs con- duct, saying the governor had snr. reptitiuosly obtained a private persor- al letter and misconstrued the mean ing of it in order to make political capital against Senator Berry.

 Then Governor Davis, taking a full swing with ihs arm, brought the cane down sQuarely on the side of MT. Dlnsmore's head, breaking the cane in two.
 Grasping the small end of the re- malning butt of the stick, Governor Davis attempted to pommel MT. Dins- more, but the latter seized the stick
