LAND PATENTS
Plans for Strengthening Out Titles
 Without Expense.

Washington, Nov. 5-The commis- sioner of the general land office has formulated plan whereby parties having some interest in lands, patents for which were issued years ago, but have never been called by the patentees may, without incurring the expense of searching for lost dupli- cate receipts or furnishing abstracts of title, have such patents sent di- rectly to the proper county officer for record.
 It is believed that this method will be the means of placing many of these ancient instruments of record and of strengthening out title without im- posing any expense upon interested parties, It is said many valuable tracts are involved.

No Special Election.

Acting Governor K o. Pindall has notified F. B. Fulkerson of Batesville, candidate for associate justice Of the Supreme Court oi Arkansas, that no special election will be called for the purpose of electing an asso- ciate justice of the Supreme Court to succeed the late J. D. Riddick for the unexpred term, but that, instead of going to the expense of holding such a special election, the candidates for the office in question will run at the regular primary to be held March 25. The election vii still be special in way, but it will be held in conjunc- tion with the regular primary, and in that way the expense of special cleo tion can be done away with. There are two candidates for the office of associate justice of the Supreme Court, F. B. Fulkerson and Judge Jesse Hart, who has been appointed to the office until a successor to Judge Riddick is elected Those two and many other candidates who develop will be voted upon at the general primary. If Judge Hart is nominated he will hold office until the general election the follow ing fall, as he is already in office. It Judge Fulkerson is nominated spe- cial election will then be held, so that he can take office at once. Judge Rid dick was elected year ago, and there are still five years before his term expires. He had already served two terms. The governor has right to call special election in such a case. However, if he sees fit not to call a special election he can not be manda- unused, as lie can use his own judg- ment

Arrange For Inspection.

Contrary to reports to that effect, no dates whatever have been set for the inspection of the Arkansas State Guard. Paul Little has received a

Last year two regular army men from Fort Logan H. Roots inspected the com- panies. An itinerary is arranged for the inspector or inspectors, as the lat ter must travel all over the State in carrying out the inspection.

In case of an extra session of the legislature an effort will be made by the management of the Arkansas State Fair at Hot Springs to induce the members to vote a special appropria- tion.

The past sea- son was an unsuccessful one, and the fair is behind about $6,000, but build ings which were erected will partially offset the deficit.
