He inlisted from what is now Little River county (which was at that time Sevier county. I saw him myself enlist in the first company that left the county.
 'sI was a member of Company B, Thirty third Arkansas Regi- ment 1 heard of Judge Davis during the war, but our regi- ments were in different con- mands After the war, in con- versation with members of his company, they spoke of Judge Davis, and of their capture, which was at the fall of Island No. 10, 1 think, and they spoke of the assistance that Judge Davis ren- dered to them while in prison, he being minister of the gospel. 1 will say that I never heard it denied before that Judge Davis was a confederate soldier and a good one.

The 1nOdercn wife and the
 money question.
J. H. SPURLIN,

Usually it is the shadow of money that brings the first partial eclipse to the honeymoon, and unless the problem is rightly handled the eclipse may be- come total. The moderen wife cannot be always asking for money and retain either her happiness or her self-respeet, The husband could not heep his busi ness going if he did not have pay day for his employees or if he was careless about settling his bils. He can not expect to keep his house going without financial arrangement that will give it regularity and security. It is passing strange that this matter should be a constant difficulty in million of homes, but it is a hardship which wives are supposed to bear uncomplain- ingly. She is a wise woman who rebels early and secures her rights, for she will never be successful wife until she has her part of the income without days of grace or discounts. This is inn portant; it vital. Unless it is made plain and duly fixed, all her other pur- pose and aspirations will be forever hanichapped. From the April Delin- eator.

Wednesdays
 Primary

On account of the contest be- tween Senator Berry and Gov ernor Davis and the interest in local issues there was a good vote polled in the primary Wednesday in the county. In- dications are at present that about 160O votes have been boiled and in many instances the result is quite interesting. Davis and Berry are running very close in the county and from the returns from fifteen townships it seems that Davis has carried the county by small majority while Little for governor gets large majority over Rogers and Sevier.
 Horsley has carried the county for prosecuting attorney by a majority of bout 800 over c. M. Rice.
 The county gave Fuller a majority of about 375 but dis patches from Madison county say that Carlock has a majority of about 800 in that county and the probability is that Fuller is de- feated by majority of about 125 votes.
 The race for representative is very close between Poynor and Cunningham with Edmundson and Collier following up with a close vote. It will probably require the official count to determine who has won in this race.
 In the race for county judge T. H. Fancher has won the nomi- nation over E. c. Cooper by a majority that will approximate 200 votes.
 McLoud and Oliver are run ming very close and it will also perhaps require the official count to determine who has won out in this race.
 The unofficial returns show that Carroll has received the nomi- nation for sheriff by plurality of about no votes. Doxey receiv- ed the nomination for treasurer by a probable majority of 125 vote. Hailey for collector received a majority of about $50 votes and Walden for assessor received a majority of 352.
 Dispatches from Little Rock recieved late Thursday even ing state that Davis has carried the state by at least 30,000 and that Little for governor and Kirby for attorney general have large maioritieS.

Military Record of
 Judge Wv. Davis
Statement From Governor Davis, Together With Copy of Affi- dayit of A. Hamilton of
 Ouachita County

Little Rock, Ark. March 20, 1906.
 To the Editor Gazette;
 From several communications in your paper, l have seen that there has been agitated to some extent the question as to whether my father served as a Confeder- ate soldier, and to what extent. regret to take up in a public way a matter so tender and deli cate to me, and seemingly to be required in any sense to make a defense of my fathers good name since he has gone to his reward. But it is quite apparent to my mind that there are those in this state who, not satisfied with hav- ing villified, abused and defamed my name, delve down with ghoul- ish glee into the depths of the tomb, and there assail the dead; and while it is deeply humiliating to me to be called upon to defend my fathers record as soldier-a record that never, to the hour of his death required one word in it's defense-yet 1 would not be faith ful and true to his memory should Iremain l silent in the face of the publications that have been made reflecting upon him as a Con- federate soldier. I have had the assurances of his service as a Confederate soldier given to me from the lips of my father ofen- times during his life, and he last mentioned the matter to me not more than three hours before his death. 1 give those assurances to his friends and mine that he gave to me, that he served as a soldier in the Confederate army, and I believe his record was as noble as that of any of his com- rades. This is d matter that I do not care to discuss at length, but I submit to the people of Arkan- sas the voluntary statement, un- der oath, of Alex Hamilton, a true and loyal soldier in the Con- federate cause, which is as fol- lows:

A Card to My Friends.

Although I failed to receive the nomination for constable of Hickory township by two votes, l desire to thank my friends for their support and to express my self as satisfied with the result. I was not in reality a candidate for the place and had not had my name placed on the ticket. On account of not having announced myself as candidate nor having placed my name on the ticket l did not really expect the liberal support that I did receive. Again thanking you, l remain,

themselves mp against hard PROPOSE
tion last week when Treasurer Nc
Gillis informed them that there was no
money on hand TO pay the orders that
they had issued at the first meeting
and that the orders would not be cash
ed
The commissioners got busy looking
up the state of their finances and
found that the appropriation made by
the board at the last annual meeting
had been more than wiped out by the
overdraft made last year.
The board issued about $500 worth
OF orders at it's meeting last week and
those orders were refused payment.
The county poor has to be- cared for
and in order TO put the matter up to
the supervisors the commissioners ap-
pointed Commissioners Miller to ap-
pear before the county board and break
the news TO that body an gently as he
could.
Mr. Miller appeared before the board
and as result il was agreed TO borrow
enough money TO tide the board of
poor commissioners over.
The poor expenses are constantly
upon the increase owing to the rapid
growth and development OF the county.
Heretofore the poor commission has
managed TO get along with 81. 900 but
