SOME NEEDS OF CENTRAL.

Hendrix College is enjoying splendid financial growth and her supporters have added over SIoo, GOO to her endowment fund dur ing the past few months, with prospects of securing many thous- ands more. In the day of pros perity of this institution the peo- pie should not forget the needs of a sister college in the same city.
 Central College, being a female institution, is practically self-sup- porting and needs but little endow- ment just now. Freed from debt and given needed equipment, she will readily take her stand with the best institutions of the south and maintain herself upon her own merits. Rev. Gates, the financial agent is now striving to liquidate the indebtedness and prospects are bright that he will succeed.
 But there are some improve ments, costing only few thous- and dollars, that Central ought to have at once, and the Baptists of the state and friends of the college everywhere ought to contribute the necessary amount without de- lay. The campus ought to be en- closed in a neat, substantial iron fence. The present wooden fence is dilapidated and must be rebuilt. Concrete walks ought to be laid along the street in front of the campus and from each gate to the main entrance. The waterworks ought to be improved and a con- plete sewer system installed in the building with septic tank or oth- CT approved system ot sewage dis posal. Two thousand dollars or more ought to be spent in interior decoration and furnishing. Ten thousand dollars will cover the en- tire cost, and every dollar spent in this manner will be worth ten dol lars to the college.
 What do the friends of Central think of this?

means every county, and not the counties only that used convict la bor on its roads.
 If some law could be devised by which each county could use its own prisoners convicted in its magistrates courts together with such convicts as are now sent, t,fromlit to the state penitentiary for short terms, a sufficient body of men might thus be gathered so that it would pay the county to guard and maintain them for the work they would do on the roads.
The log cabin Democrat., 1907-02-21

paid the sum of S27, 246.oo for eight of them as an extra. The building as it now stands has only the sixteen columns as shown on these plans. D
 Here we have a charge the truth or untruth of (which ought to be easily established. The legis- lative committee can go to the rec ords of the commission and ascer- tain whether such all order for ex- tra columns was made and wheth- CT such an amount was so paid to the contractors. They can then proceed to the capitol itself and count the columns.
 Another instance. MT. Dona- ghey displayed a detail drawing of columns referred to above and said
 This detail shows how all the columns for the new capitol to be finished, but the futing has been left off of all, and as they stand now they are plain. This work so left off is worth at least SIo, 900, but the state has not had credit for 1t. /"
 This is another easy proposition. Let the committee go to the plans and ascertain whether they require the columns to be futed. If so, then find whether they are auted. If they are not, then has the state been given credit for the defcien- cy?
 There are many other assertions equally easy of verification con- tained in MT. Donaghey's address. Disregarding any suggested motive which might have prompted them, the legislative committee ought to make an earnest, thorough inves- tigation of these charges and let the people know whether they are true or untrue. And the legisla- tive committee ought to bear in mind that the eyes of the people of Arkansas are on them and that the contractors whom they are Investigating have, in effect, ad- mitted in open court that they are boodlers.

CONNECTS ON THE ROADS.

Senator Montgomery's bill pro- viding for the working of convicts on public roads, is, in the opinion of The Log Cabin Democrat, very poor measure, although it re- ceived the provisional endorse ment of the good roads convention. We believe that none but the wealthy counties can derive any benefit from it, while every county will have to bear part of the ex- pense.
 In the first place, convict labor is worth little more than paid labor, unless prisoners are worked togeth- CT in large bodies. A convict will not perform af much labor as a paid man. Then he. has to be fed, clothed, given medical attention and guarded.
 The Montgomery bill requires a county using state convicts to con- struct ten miles or more of maca- dam road in one year. Not over five or six counties in the state are able to build this amount. But the expense of guarding and clothing the convicts must be borne by the state, which means by every county.
 As matter of fact the past year is the first in the history of the penitentiary that that institution has been self-sustaining. To take away three hundred able bodied men from the penitentiary would mean that it would be con ducted at a great loss and that this loss would be borne by the state, which as said before,

MIR. DONAGHEY AND THE STATE
 CAPITOL.

The Log Cabin Democrat last week printed synopsis of a speech delivered by George w. Donaghey of this city before large number of members of the Arkansas legislature on some all legged errors in the construction ot our state capitol. In the course of his remarks MT. Donaghey gave utterance to some very grave charges against the contractors, Caldwell & Drake, as well as against the state capitol commis- sioners-charges which if proved before a court would lay the con- tractors not only to a forfeiture ot their contract but to terms of i'm prisonment.
 Now these charges are either true as a whole, true in part or al- together untrue. It is the duty of the legislature to ascertain which is correct. The assertions con- tained ill them have been repeated ly made by Mir. Donaghey and they have never been specifically denied. About the only answer that has ever been made to them either by Caldwell & Drake or by anyone speaking for them is that MT. Donaghey was an unsuccess- ful bidder for the contract and that his charges are but evidences of a bad case of "sour grapes. y
 We'll, let 1t be admitted that MT. Donaghey is disgruntled because of an unsuccessful attempt to se- cure the contract; let it be admit ted that nothing but rancor toward his successful rivals prompts him in the course of action which he has been pursuing; or let any other personal or selfish interest which might be suggested be conceded as his motive. Let the legislature, if it so desires, proceed under the as sumption that Mir. Donaghey's charges are entirely untrue. But even if no charges whatever had been brought against the contrac- tors, a thorough investigation should be made.
 Let the legislative committee take two or three ot the concrete in stances in which MT. Donaghey virtually asserts that the contrac- tors are robbing the state. Let them take, for instance, this asser- tion:
 This west elevation of the state capitol plans has sixteen columns shown on it. The con tractors agreed to complete every thing above the basement floor line, as you can see from their bid and their contract, for S947, 846.oo. These columns are above that line. But the commission has

B. Setzler, who has been in the mercantile business for long time has sold his entire stock to Merriam Lasley, and has bought bottom farm from MT. Lasley and will re- tire to more of quiet life. ...L. T. Lasley is very sick at this writing. ..... From one to fifteen bales of cotton have been passing here for Conway every day for the past week. ...J. J. Joslin left yes terday for Little Rock for the pur- pose of selling his load, which he and Will Curtis had gathered up. ...,J. H. Reynolds, Sr., and wife are visiting their son, I. R.

 The eLog Cabin Democrat ADVERTISING MEDIUM! T~HE LOG CABIN DEMOCRAT has always
 conducted it's business with it's advertisers upon the theory that they entitled to know exactly what they are getting for their money.
 When you buy advertising space, you are buying circulation. It is circulation alone that makes advertising valuable A paper circulate ing one thousand copies in given territory is worth exactly one=l1alf as much as adver= Using medium paper circulating two thousand copies in the same territory. If the paper doesn't reach the buyers to whom the advertiser wants to talk it is waste of money to buy space in it.
 Now, we have always printed our exact total circulation in a conspicuous position in this paper every week. This circulation statement means the number necessarily printed each week to supply regular subscribers and few for sample copies, files, etc. Thus, for the past month more average circulation has been 28OO copies every week. On account, however, of putting out=of=the= county subscription list upon Casf1=in=advance basis our list has suffered small loss, and the number printed for this issue is only 265o copies.
 This, however, is a circulation of which we exceedingly proud. No other country paper in the state publishes claim of so large a cir= CulatiOn. Counting five readers to the copy, it means that each issue of The Log Cabin Demo- crat is read by Thirteen Thousand people. the local advertiser what after entitled 'oW circulate territory? many actual, a radius off, thirty miles of Conway"

THE ANIMALS
 ALL BUT TALK
Four Footed Actors Display More Mind
 Than Some Men.

The Adam Forepaugh and Sells Bros. circus, which will exhibit in Pine Bluff On November 16, is making a strong feature Of it's trained animal acts. Among the trainers engaged is the great Spessardy, whose educaT ed bears were the talk Of Europe last winter. This is Spessardy $ first tour of America. George De Voc, the greatest trainer Of horses America has eer seen. is also presenting a big act, the like of which has never been seen with any other show.
 Trained zebras, which do all that a horse can be taught, are a novelty among the trained animals acts, and the TWO families of seals, playing ball, picking on stringed instruments, jug gling firebrands and balancing revolv- ing plates on their noses are the most striking example of animal intelli- gence before the public A jungle of ferocious beasts perform the most sen- sational acts in q steel arena. The acts are entirely new and most re- markable. The LOckhart performing elephants. with an entirely new act. occupy all three rings in one big number.
 The trained animal groups have been selected with view to absolute novelty. There are no others to be seen like them in this country. Ev- erything about the big circus is novel; ty itself. The parade is a revolution of the old style street display. One million dollars was spent to give it an aspect. of absolute newness and the result is something entirely different to look at. It is twice the length of other parades, and not one thing can be found in it that others have. The menagerie has also undergone changes to give 1t novelty. Many spec imens have been added that have not been seen in this country. Then comes the greatest novelty of the age and at the same time the costliest and most entertaining-the spectacle of Fighting the Flames :" The presen- tation of a city filling the entire arena on fire, and a battalion of professional firemen battling to put it out and res cuing men, women and children from the upper floors with ladders and life nets, produces more thrills to the minute than any other spectacle can in an hour.
