AN UNJUST CHARGE.


 Some of the newspapers of this state are seriously objecting to the announcement of George w. Don aghey's candidacy for governor in our contemporary, the Conway Times, on account af the fact that its editor, Ben L.. Griffin, is the state secretary of the Farmers Union, non-political organiza- ton. It is charged that on ac- count of his position in the union, MT. Griffin should not give expres- sion to any personal choice he might have for political office. One or two papers have even made the false assertion that he has pledged the support of the Arkansas Farm CTS Union to MT. Donaghey's can didacy.
 Now, so far as The Log Cabin Democrat Is concerned, the Times is a vigorous competitor of this paper, and 1t is only sense of fair ness that prompts us to answer these charges.
 It should be remembered that MT. Griffin is man of three dis tinct capacities, neither of which is conflicting. He is secretary of the State Farmers Union he is editor of Democratic weekly newspaper; and he is a citizen and voter of Faulkner county, Arkansas. It was not as secretary of the union that he announced MT. Donaghey's candidacy, but as editor of the Times; and it was not as either of these, but as a citizen and voter of Faulkner county, that he stated that he would support Mir. Dona- ghey in the race. And there was not word in the announcement that could have been taken to mean that he would pledge-or attempt to pledge, tor he has no more power than any other member of the or ganization-the support of the union to MT. Donaghey.
 It might have been expected that Caldwell & Drake, the state capitol contractors who are so bit ter against MT. Donaghey on ac- count of the efectual manner in which he has kept them from rob- ping the state out of more than a million dollars, would all along try to prejudice the minds of the peo- pie against him. The influence of these grafters will of course be turned in every way possible against him. But certainly every man, and especially the members of the union itself, will know bet ter than to believe that this or any other fraternal organization would abbreviate the right of an Ameri- can citizen to vote as he pleases and to express choice for what ever political candidates he de- sires.

The Log Cabin Democrat hopes that the next sessions of Hendrix and Central colleges, which will begin within a few weeks, will be attended by larger number of Conway and Faulkner county boys and girls. There are hundreds of young men and women iu this county who could with the proper effort attend these institutions.
 Not only are they missing a great opportunity by not doing so, but the small local attendance is a poor advertisement for the colleges.

FOR GOVERNOR GEORGE w. DONAGHEY OF FAULKNER COUNTY
A TEMpESr IN A TEAPOT.

Since the opinion of Attorney General Kirby in reference to the state capitol fund, the Gazette and the Democrat of Little Rock have uncovered an awful mares nest at the state house, and have been ex- citedly telling their readers about p 1t ever since.
 MT. Kirby decided that no more money was available out of the \ state capitol fund, on account oi the constitutional prohibition against appropriations being con- I tinued for more than two years. The Little Rock papers immedi- ately jumped to the conclusion that 4 the state school fund, the state pen sion fund and the state sinking fund were all in the same boat and would be tied up until the legisla- ture again meets.
 The headlines ill these papers for the past few days are truly start ling. "Old Soldiers Will Suffer, !" the Democrat exclaims; State may Ask Banks for Loan, says <, the Gazette one day, and the next: Borrowing Plan is Not Favored Bankers Say That They Could Not Lend the State Money for the School Fund, as Suggested" ," Now, there has not been an ap- propriation for either of these funds made by the legislature for ten years or more, and yet the funds have been distributed with usual regularity. Why was not this di- lemma in which the Little Rock papers have found the state dis covered long ago? If it is uncon- stitutional to distribute these funds to the purposes for which they were collected this year why was it not also unconstitutional last year-and the year before9 If neither the officers nor the state has suffered from paying out these funds in the past, why should they now?
 Auditor Moore" says Mon- days Gazette, will follow the in- depreciation of the attorney general with regard to the two hnds the school and pension funds in the strictest sense, until he has been re- lieved of responsibility by a legal decision which will construe his future actions. Where did the Gazette get its authority tor this state ment? Auditor Moore is at his home in Enders, this county, and has not been ill Little Rock since the opinion of the attorney general was rendered. The only statement he has made is to in struct his deputy to abide by the decision upon the state capitol fund.
 MT. Kirby has rendered no opln- ion on the school, pension or sink ing fund. Nobody has asked him for such an opinion. The state of \ fcers, who are more concerned T with the interests of the people
 han with the abstruse technicali-
 les of the law or the desires of the
 ally papers, will go ahead and dis k ribute these funds in their proper < khannels, just as they have done in years gone by.
 The real object of these papers to get a special session of the legis- lature in order that their newspa- per graft bill may again be put to work, and something like $500 a day of the statas money again be- } gin to roll into eheir coffers-is too T apparent. ]
