A SPLENDID ENDORSEMENT.

A more comprehensive yet truth ful endorsement of George w. Don aghey for governor could probably not be written than that which ap- peared in the Russellville Courier Democrat last week:
 Having known MT. Donaghey since our early boyhood, we feel no hesitancy in recommending him to our readers as gentleman of high moral integrity, honest and upright in every walk of life, and in every way fully qualified to fill the high est office in the gift of the Democ- racy of the state. He stands for clean, fearless, business admins tration of the state and the legiti- mate advancement of her every in terest. He is in no sense of the word a politician, and never asked for public office at the hands of the people until developments of the past few years stamped his name upon the minds of the citizens of the state as publicspirited, cour- ageous man of energy and execu- tive ability, and resulted in solici- tations from every class and from every section of the state to which he finally yielded and allowed his name to be announced as candi- date for governor. He opened his campaign at Morrilton Monday, where he addressed one of the larg est crowds ever assembled in our neighbor city. He outlined his pol icies in an honest, straightforward manner, and while making no claims of oratory, yet his words carried with them conviction, and the beliet of all that he would de- vote the same energy and business integrity to the affairs of state that has made him successful in the pri- vate walks of life. It is too early to forecast the result of the coming gubernatorial race, but 1t is con- ceded by all that George w. Dona- ghey will be one of the strongest men coming before the primaries. "

evolves from the fertile brain ot our writer, the element of time enters to disturb his plans. MT. Belding can of course be elected governor on the wide-open gambling plat form, but he could not assume the office until along in January, 1909. Too long for gay old Hot Springs. Some swifter remedy must be de- vised. And SO
 There is every reason to believe that there will be an extra session of the legislature in December. The fact that the courts have thrown out the strong corporation laws passed in the last legislature almost makes this a necessity.
 "Gov. Pindall IS not adverse to a repeal of the Amis law ii the people want 1t repealed, and 1t is believed that he will signify this law in his special session call, so that if there IS change in sentiment, there may be opportunity to take advantage of the fact before the local tracks are further disturbed, or allowed to be- come dismantled.
 Alter the Amis bill had become law i'll the last legislature there was an effort made for its repeal, and the senate rescinded its favor of the measure, voting 10 wipe it of the books. During the present state fair two-thirds of the members oi the lower house and many senators have come here, and have express ed their willingness that the Amis bill should be wiped out, and mod ifcation, or restricted date bill, be introduced for passage in its stead.
 Hot Springs has heard during this fair of the abandonment o1 many ot the smaller county fairs, which had long been established and which had been abandoned this year because the principal rev enue had come from the few book ing privileges.
 The naivete of the of tue Hot Springs correspondent precludes a serious reply. The great demand of the @'peoplea fof~ adsauate and unmolested gambling facilities is

Says yesterdays Little Rock Ga zette:
 "Mr. McFarlane said he would discuss the new capitol at length if he could get George w. Donaghey before him. Conway papers please copy.)"
 The chances are before the cam paign is over MT. McFarlane will have Donaghey before him, Dona- ghey behind him, Donaghey to the right and Donaghey to the left of him. Donaghey will have him hemmed up in such tight place that it will be difficult for McFar- lane to wiggle out of the race. The brazen effrontery which McFarlane displays in entering the race foi governor on his unsavory state cap itol record makes it very easy foi him to stand two hundred miles away and tell what he would do i he had Donaghey before him.

SOME ARKANSAS NEWS.

Some rather surprising news is contained in dispatch from Hot Springs which appeared in Mon- days Memphis Commercial Ap- peal. The dispatch was published on the sporting news page and was evidently penned by member of the sporting fraternity, but the col umn devoted to fiction would have been more fitting position for the article.
 The Hot Springs writer tells us i'll the first place that the people are very much dissatisfied with the Amis bill, which prohibits betting on races. Speaking of the gam bling on horses at the recent state fair the writer says:
 "The betting that has been done daily on the few races Carded has taken place in full view of the stand, with no preteuslon at hiding the transactions. The wagers were between individuals, for the most part, natives of the state, people who have a voice in affairs from every section, and the open manner ill which they have offered wagers, and accepted them, indicate pub lie disrespect for the law in the last legislature which had for its aim the denial of this feature of the racing game. "
 This is somewhat surprising, but there is more to follow. We are told that this unrest of the people who can no longer play the pc nies" has resulted in a popular call from the people" to bring Geo. R. Bedding, the president of the racing association, into the race for governor. That MT. Bedding would be nominated practically without opposition we are led to believe from the fact that the writer tells us that "the powerful political strength of Senator Jeff Davis" would be thrown to the Hot Springs man should he decide to make the race. As governor, MT. Bedding would demand the repeal of the -auti-1acing law

TELLS HOW TO MIX IT
Directions to Prepare Simple
 Home Remedy.
Tells You How to Overcome Rheumatism with Simple Recipe, which is
 Easily Mixed

A well-known authority on Rheumatism gives the readero of a large New York daily paper the following valuable, yet simple and harmless prescription, which any one can easily prepare at home:
 Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sars- aparrilla, three ounces.
 Mix by shaking we'll in a bottle, and take teaspoonful after each meal and at betdime.
 He states that the ingredients can be obtained from any good prescription pharmacy at small cost, and, being of vegetable ex- traction are harmless to take.
 This pleasant mixture, if taken regularly for a few days, is said to overcome almost any case of rheu- matlSm. Tbe pain and swelling, if any, diminishes with each dose, until pc. manent results are obtain ed, and without injuring the stom- ach. While there are many so called Rheumatism remedies, pat ent medicines, etc., some of which do give relief, few really give per manent results, and the above will no doubt, be greatly appreciated by many sufferers here at this time.
 Inquiry at the drug stores of this neighborhood elicits the informa- tion that these drugs are harmless and can be bought separately, or the druggists here will mix the prescription for our readers if asked to.

The organization of twenty-five or more experimental farms under the direction of government ex- perts will mean more to the people of Faulkner county than perhaps any movement ever attempted. The only way to teach scientific farming is to teach by actual demonstra- tions. Twenty-Five government experimental farms means that at least 25o acres of Faulkner county land will be intensively cultivated under the most approved scientific principles.
