When d rooster finds big tat worm hccaiis all the hens in the farm yard t0 come and share it. \ similar trait of human nature is 10 be observed when man discovers something eXception- ally good -ne wants all his friends and neighbors to share the benefits of his discovery. This is the touch of nature that makes the whole world kin. This explains why people who have been cured by Chamber lain's Cough Remedy write let ters to the manufacturers for publication. that others similarly ailing may also use 1t and ob- tain relief.

pldIHtu MI. bOHdS Ic}s lo udAC better roads throughout Arkan- sas. I believe that 1t would be practical to work a portion, say one-half, of the State convicts on the road and the other half at the State farm. By so doing the state farm could be kept in good condition and the State would be gaining great deal each day in the way of building up of public roads. In case such a measure Is carried through and the con- vict lease system abolished. plans could be effected for the carrying out of the road improvement work.
 I also believe that the State should have a general banking law which would protect people throughout the State who are now afraid to deposittheir money with banks because Of fear of failure. Farmers. for instance, who hear of 50 many bank fail- ures that they are afraid to place their money with any bank, knew in many cases but little concern ing the banks in their own lo- ealities. Consequently. they bury their money. believe 1t to be fact that fully B per cent ef the actual cash in Arkansas is kept from circulation on account #ef this very reason. HtAink that law requiring all banks in the State to pay, say, one-fourth of one per cent. of their annual de- posits. into a general banking fund with the understanding that Ill case of a failure of any bank within the State the depositors of that bank who are residents of the State shall be paid from the fund, the entire amount they had deposited in the bankrupt insti- tuition, would prove q solution of the problem. For instance. If bank failed, each and every de- positor would be paid back the money he had in the bank out of this banking fund. Objections have been raised to this plan, but ! firmly believe that the weak points could be worked out and the plan made most feas- iitble and practical or. One ob- jeetion to the plan < that old banks would have to bolster up new and weak banks. I think this could be remedied. however, by the appointment of banking commissioners whose duty 1t would be 10 examine banks throughout the State and keep out weak and unsafe banking in- stitutions.
 W hat plans or ideals have you as to the possible evasion ot another difficulty such as tile State is now undergoing II con- nection with the general revenue fund.- was asked Mr. Donaghey.
 That is question which l am not prepared to make any elaborate statment on. was the reply However, continued the Democratic nominee, believe that I should favor q plan to hurry along the turning in of State tax money through the State. AS l understand II, under the present conditions tax moneys are now collected from l5 10 D months before they are paid into the State treasury II the money Was paid into the treasury more promptly financial stringencies in many funds would be evaded.
 Asked as to what he would favor in the way oi educational advancement in the state. AIr. Donaghey replied that lie would put forth every effort to secure general advancement of eduea- tional interests in Arkansas. T especially desire to see more practical work taught in Arkan- sas schools" he announced. T

 W. D0NAGHEY Brief Review of His Career, and What He Hopes to AcComp-

 turned to Little Rock for sec ond time in 1879, this time to make Arkansas his home. His father was q farmer and during the early years of his lie Atr. Donaghey worked on the farm. During the greater part of his life in Arkansas Mr. Donaghey has lived at Conway where he has resided for g years.
 For the past E years AIf. DonaglIey has been a contractor. His start was made when he en- tered the shop of J. A. Pence as d cabinet worker. From that he branclled out and today is onr of the most widely known eon- tractors in the state. His first large piece of work was III fs9e, when he undertook the eonstrue- tion of Hendrix College Ill Con- way. Since that he has built several buildings at Elderade, Ark. fine Methodist church at Camden, Ark. the court house Of Washington county at Fayette- vile. Ark, which was erected at a cost of S100,00, and which Is one of the finest buildings of its kind in the South. He also re- built the insane asylum at Little Rock after the tornado of 1s94 and was a member of the first Board of Capitol Commissioners for the new capitol building at Little Rock.
 lis reputation as q contractor Is lot confined to Arkansas. and as far back as 1897 he built the court house building at Long view. Tex, at a cost ot S5o. o.0oo. also fine annex to the state asylum at Terrill, Tex. He has done much work in Oklahoma and other states and has spent much time 1n large contract work of depots and other buiId- ings for the Rock Island often having several contracts at the same time.
 Mr. ponaghey was married Sept. 20. 1ss5, to Miss Louvenia Wallace. She was native of South Carolina, but eame to Arkansas in 1908. She has 10 large extent the care of the Donaghey home place of 6o acres III the suburbs of Conway. On account of his extensive opera tions Mr. Donaghey is absent from home q great deal, and the work of the town farm" goes on under his fine wife's guidance. L. K. Gazette.
 George W. Donaghey, Of Con- way, Democratic nominee for governor, was iu the city Tues day, and while here talked at length concerning issues and measures which he intends to ad- yocate in the advent that he is elected next fall
 Among his pet measures Will be one abolishing the present con- yict lease system; another will create banking law which shall have for it's purpose the bringing into circulation of an estimated amount of B per cent of the money in Arkansas which Mr. Donaghey now thinks IS buried another will have for its purpose the furtherance of educational in- terests-industrial especially-in Arkansas, while still another IS one which will tend to equalize the State taxation in various counties throughout the State.
 By disposing of the convict lease system now in effect III Arkansas, Mr. Donaghey would aspire to improve the roadways of Arkansas, 1t being his plan to work about one-half of the State conyicts on the pubic roads and work the other half on the State farm. .It is my desire" ex-

 Arkansas Democrats would have ample precedent in going outside of Ter high public off, cials to make the selection of her four delegates at large to the national convention. In our neighbor state of Oklahoma Sen ators Gore and Owen and Cover nor Haskell 1aagnanimously de clined the honor and said they believed the honors should be passed around. Senator Stone of Missouri has done likewise. The Republicans ot Ohio and New York have selected their big four delegations to Chicago and have not included their Senators in the list. Under these conditions and precedents our Senators and Gov ernors could hardly take the po- sition they had been sighted If our state convention should de- eide to select four men from the ranks who are not now holding a high office or aspiring to one.

Favors Poor Children's Camp, But
Unable to Finance It,

POCGHKEEPSIE, N Y, August 4
Harry Thaw qualified yesterday the story
from Pittsburg that he is going to estab-
fish summer home for poor children at
Cresson Springs. Thaw says that he is
In hearty sympathy with the plan but
that he is unable to finance It at present
on account of the heavy expenses of his
trials. He hopes. however, that the
camp will be established before next sum-
mer.
Several projects have been considered
for making use Of the hotel and cottages
at the old place as a retreat for con-
sumptiyes or the aged" said Thaw, "but
most of the plans entail such extensive
repairs that the cost was prohibitory, at
least as great as TO build on a new loca-
ton where the winters are less severe
But most of the cottages can be prepared
to receive children during the summer
A two weeks visit for each would give
them great pleasure and do them great
benefit The Thaw cottage and the B.
+. Jones cottage could be utilized for
housing the poor delicate children, but
all the others would make the finest and
dryest camps possible.
There are plenty of men in Pittsburg
who could support this work. AS no
long leases would be required. the cottage
owners might loan their cottages free of
rent The only expenses would be bed
