 No motive for the Kidnapping is known beyond that it was a plan t1 get Chitwood in jurisdiction where the surety company which bonded him at the government while he was an emp1oye of the postoffice, and which was made to make good an aT- legged embezzlement of s176 to the Postoffice Department, could take some action for the recovery of the money Another reason advanced is that it was a move of personal ene mics against Chitwood's s employer

 | Everything is lively today at the five voting precincts in this city, the First, Second, Third and Fourth wards and Vaugine township. Ever since the polls opened this morning to receive the votes to be cast in the prosecuting attorneys race, stream of men has been seen at each of them, going and coming. Each polling place is surrounded by lieutenants~ ~ef~W. T. Young, w. D. Jones and T. Havis Nixon.
 Up to two o'clock this afternoon the total number of votes cast in the city reached nearly one thousand. It is figured that the two thousand mark will be reached before the closing hour this afternoon. Young support CTS, Jones followers and Nixon ad- mirers are working hard for the suc- The Second and Fourth ward are claimed by w. T. Young by large ma jorities. Jones, Nixon and Young are also claiming the First ward. The Third ward is also claimed by tho three candidates. The Vaugine town ship box is puzzling all of them, it is said. The voting in Lincoln and De- sha counties is said to be spirited.
 It is thought that the winner will be known by Il o'clock tonight.
 Many bets are being made by the friends of the three candidates today In the past week no little money has changed hands on the result. The contest is one of the hardest fights ever waged for the prosecuting at torney's office in the Eleventh Judicial district.
 Aside from a few disputes, which amounted to nothing and which oc- curerd at intervals in several of the wards, the election is passing off quietly. AS far as the police know there have been no fights and up to a late hour this afternoon there nad been no repeating or efforts in the direction of fraud. It looks as if the election in this city will be one of the fairest ever pulled off here.

FLEECED LOCAL
 BUSINESS MAN J. B. Meyer, Aged German, Represented Himself to Be Millionaire Miller of St. Louis
CAUGHT AT MEMPHIS
D. M. Bluthenthal Says He Will Pros. ecute-Chief Stewart Goes to Memphis for the PrisOner-Was We'll Dressed.

today noon for Memphis, where he will take charge of J. B. Meyer, 5S years old, German who is charged with having secured $50 from D. M. Bluthenthal of this city by false pre- ltenses. MT. Bluthenthal will prose cute him when he is returned here tomorrow for trial. .-- Meyer was arrested in Memphis on a similar charge, but owing to the fact that John F. Meyer, the million aire miller of St. Louis, whom he rep resents himself to be, did not go to Memphis to prosecute him, the hear ing has been postponed. In the mean time the Memphis police have consent ed to Meyer being brought to Pine that he will return here without re- quisition papers.
 Meyer visited Pine Bluff several days ago and being we'll dressed and a rather clever conversationalist. mixed with several local 6nanciers, among them being a prominent bank CT, who is said to have introduced him to D. M. Bluthenthal, one of the vic- tins of his smooth work Meyer rep resented himself to be the millionaire St. Louis miller and informing MT. Bluthenthal that he was short of funds, induce dhim to give him $50. He then left the city and later devel- opments proved that MT. Bluthenthal 1 had been worked.
 Speaking of Meyers arrest in Mem phs the News-Scimitar of that city, this morning, says:
 Because John F. Meyer, at the head of the firm of John F. Meyer & Sons, millers, of St. Louis and Springfield, Mo-, was unable to reach Memphis Thursday morning in order to prose- cute Henry B. Meyer, 5S years of age German, who, it is said forged the name of John F. Meyer Wednesday the case against Meyer was continued by City Judge A. c. Floyd until Fri day morning.
 Purporting himself to be John F. Meyer, the head of milling firm with headquarters in St. Louis, Meyer, wh1 is a German shoemaker, called upon D. T. Hughes, a commission broker in the Tennessee Trust building Wednesday and presented draft for $25, drawn on the Franklin Bank Q! St. Louis.
 His deception was not discovered until MT. Hughes called upon c. w Carver, another local broker and learned that MT. Carver had visited John F. Meyer in his milling plant in St. Louis Tuesday.
 The suspicious of MT. Hughes and Mir. Carver were aroused and Meyer was placed under arrest by Detective Frank Turner, at the Gehring hotel Wednesday evening.
 When he was cross-questioned by the detectives, Meyer admitted to the forgery of John F. Meyers name and admitted that he secured $35 on sim liar daft at Greenville, Miss, $15 at Little Rock, and $50 at Pine Bluff Ark
 He explained his actions by stating that he had been on a protracted spree and did not know what he was doing.
 Chief of Police O'Haver received 9 communication from the police at Pine Bluff Thursday stating that Meyer is wanted there for securing money under false pretenses.

AN OBNOXIOUS ACT

In all probability the resolution
that was introduced and passed by
the senate a few days ago. regarding
normal schools, submitted by Sena-
tor Taylor. of Glenwood Springs, is
the last act in the normal school iias-
co.
Taylor saw that his town could
not secure an appropriation and he
proposed to fix IL so that no other city
which had prospects of securing AN
appropriation, would have any pos
sible show. The resolution calls for
a commission consisting of all the eX-
governors of the state and the heads
of all state educational institutions,
to form a commission which should
pass upon the desirabillty of some
one point for the establishment of a
normal school
One other feature of the resolution
is most obnoxious. 1t provides that
no splnce shall be selected that has
not offred as much bonus In lands
and money, as Glcnwood Springs is
alleged to have done.
II can be taken for granted that the
heads of the educational institu-
tions of the state, as part of the COM
mission, all residing on the eastern
slope will find no place in western
Colorado adapted to the requirements
of normal school. The educational
Institutions of Colorado located east
of the range are not at all anxious to
see western Colorado provided with n
normal school or in fact any other
Institution OF learning so that we see
our hopes going n glimmering for
the time being
The other provision of the resolu-
D a.. -
standpoint The state of Colorado Is
not so poor that It need improverish
the citizens of any community to
raise n bonus to secure location.
Pioneer men and women of Colorado
have had to give of their hard earn
ings to secure those comforts and
indstrial institutions which assist in
the upbuilding of any new commun-
ity. 1t Is wrong in principle that
they should be asked to give up large
bonuses and n considerable area of
land, To influence u commission TO de-
eide upon their town and city ns an

ment in behalf of parking is to ex-

attractive than formerly and the
value of the property greatly en-
HANGED. The Sentinel urges 1t not
