of that county, niether do l need it. I have made my arrangements to get along without it.

The law shall be enforced.

 Governor. Effect of Order Upon Hot Springs.
 The effect of the governors decia- ration upon Hot Springs is not yet clear. So far as the pool or turf-bet- ting rooms are concerned, it is said there is no specific law to prevent their continued operat on. The au- thorities can proceed against gaming establishments, however, under the state laws, and if desired can seize gaming devices and obtain from the courts orders to burn such material According to advices from Hot Springs, the governors lid order is deemed by many threat because of Sheriff Williams activity in favor of Senator Berry and against Governor Davis for United States senator. It is said to be practically certain that Governor Davis, who was formerly very friendly with Sheriff Williams. cannot carry Garland county in the primary elect on on March 2S.
 It is now recalled by citizens at Hot Springs that when Governor Da- wis was making speech at Lawrence, Garland county, last summer, he re- ferred brif1y to Hot Springs.
 ''What have you ever done for Hot Springs?" inquired some one in the audience?"
 3'I have let t alone" promptly re. Died the governor. "That is what it wants. Hot Springs is a sovereignty unto itself.'

NOTICE IS GIVEN
THIRTY DAYS TIME LIMIT SET BY GOVERNOR FOR CLOSING
 GAMBLING HOUSES.
Threatens to Invoke Aid of the State Militia in Order to Enforce His
 Orders at Hot Springs.
announcement

Confirming the announcement through Private Secretary Jacobson that it is Governor Davis intentions to put on the lid at Hot Springs, the governor has issued statement i'll which he declares he will close the gambl .ng and pool rooms at Hot Springs, if he has to invoke the mili- tary arm in order to do it.
 In his statement the governor gives 30 days notice to the persons inter- ested at Hot Springs. He makes the declaration that he may appoint an outsider to fill the vacant office of prosecuting attorney of the Hot Springs circuit. He declares that no Garland county man will be appointed to the place.
 The 30 days notice given by Gov ernor Davis will make the lid period begin April 1, three days after the Democratic primary election, in which his candidacy for United States sen- ator will be passed upon.
 While the governor does not state who he proposes to appoint prosecut- ing attorney. he asserts that the ap- pointee will have to lend him earnest, active assistance.
 Governor Davis Statement.
 The following commu cation form the governor, who is at Russellville at the bedside of his father, has been received by the Gazette:
 Russellville, Ark, Feb. 2S, 1906. To the Editor of the Gazette:
 I see in your issue of this date an extended article as to whether or not I authorized the statement that I will use all the power vested in me by the laws of this state to close gambling houses and pool rooms at Hot Springs In order that there may be no ques- tion of my intention in this matter. beg to inform you that I now give to the gamblers and pool room keepers Of Hot Springs thirty days notice to pull up stakes and quit If they do not do so, will on April 1 employ the strong arm of the law for their suppression. hope that it W II not be necessary to resort to extreme measures, but if the sheriff refuses to serve warrants, make arrests and close these places, I will do so with the military arm of the government, if necessary.
 l will appoint no man prosecutine attorney who VII net lend me his earnest. active ass stance. I desire to call attention to the fact that the constitution and laws of this state only require that a prosecuting attor- ney be resident, and not a citizen and qualified elector of the district in which he serves. I shall not appoint any man in Hot Springs or Garland county. l may be forced to the ne. cessity of appointing a nonresident. AL any rate, unless the gamblers are stronger than the law, they must go from Hot Springs.
 It makes no difference to me as to the vote of Garland county in the sen. atorlal race. I do not expect the vote

GREAT CROWD
In COLUMBIA
Attracted by The Coming of Ex-Governor
R. [. Taylor.

The rain Saturday, which prevented
farm work Monday, and the brignt
sunshine Monday morning, combined
toward bringing a large crowd to Co
lumbia Monday to hear ex-Cov. Taylor
make his appeal to the people for
their endorsement Of his candidacy
for U. S. Senator.
The business section up town was
not decorated, though it is reported
that at least one business house on
South Main street was. If there were
any decorations in the residence part
Of town they were not reported.
The Taylor managers sent men out
to the edge of town to give every man
a Taylor badge, who would consent
to wear one, but in spite of this fact
at least half the crowd wore no badges
at all, the followers of Senator Car
mack having informally agreed not to
wear their colors on this day. Many
of the wearers of the Taylor badges
were ladies and boys, who will not
be able to vote for some years yet.
The reception committee met Gov.
Taylor at the Hampshire crossing,
where the parade was formed and he
was escorted to town. Before leaving
the crossing he spoke for some minutes
to the boys of the Columbia Military
Academy.
When the parade appeared on West
Seventh street it was seen that Grant
.Courtwright was leading. The parade
was quite a creditable one and con-
sisted of 154 men and ten ladies on
horse back with $50 vehicles. The
Industrial School band of Nashville,
furnished the music. A number of

Vanderbilt scrub team had dual meet
today. Branham & Hughes winning
by the score of Sc to Al. The relay
race was not run, and If it had the
score would have been larger, and no
doubt in favor of Branham & Hughes,
as they have the very best relay team
and are expecting to make a very fine
showing when the team goes to Van
derbilt to meet the teams from the
other schools. In several races good
records were made, which goes to

grand stand was crowded and the
crowd was augmented by several hun
dred who clustered around the speak
er's stand.
Gov. Taylor began speaking at one
and spoke along the usual lines, mere
I ly reiterating his statement heretofore
made in regard to the Dibrell matter
and making no special reference to
JEFF Dibrells letter He had his fol-
lowers with him and every joke was
cheered to the echo
When he was a little more than half
through his speech, rain began falling
and he had to close.
Ex-Gov. Taylor resumed his speech
when the rain had partially held up
and spoke an hour longer.
He touched upon the JEFF Dibrell
letter by saying Il did not know JEFF
Dibrell hated me when l spent the
night with him. He told me he loved
me and l suppose if he hated me like
he says he did, | was fortunate in
escaping from his house with my life"
AT the close of Gov. Taylor's speech,
Miss Bessie Murphy endorsed what he
had said in a well-chosen speech and
instead of presenting him with a boz
quet, gave him a hand shake. He
kisse her hand by way of reply.

ing to come on here the evening of the
18th, but at 5:15 that morning our
determinations and etc. were shaken
out of line and l felt little like Joe
Joslin when he was held up. Our
house being frame, was walloped
around like playing whipcracker, but
not demolished, though lots of older
frame buildings were, all around us
and then came the worst fire that ever
swept any city in the United States.
We were hemmed in on peninsula
and slept and lived in the street and
on door steps. | served on the fire
department on the most critical day
and set fire to fine residences to save
others and carried lines of hose as log

the dynamite that could be gotten to
blow up buildings, but in spite Of all
the fire SWEPT on and practically
burned itself OFT. / brought Ada's
sister and daughter out with us
through the burned district, between

For Columbia People to Neglect.
The great danger Of kidney troubles
is that they get a firm hold before the
sufferer recognizes them. Health is
gradully undermined. Backache,
headache, nervousness, lameness, sore
ness, lInbago, urinary troubles, drop
sly, diabetes and Bright's disease fol-
low in merciless succession. Don't
neglect YOUR kidneys. Cure the kid

hardly stoop over to pick up piece of
