Arkansas for Prohibition.

Little Rock, Ark. April 26.-The Repub-
lican state convention will meet at Hot
Springs on Tuesday to nominate state
ticket and adopt a platform. II is prac-
tically certain that the Roosevelt admin
istratiOn will be endorsed emphatically
and that a resolution will be adopted in
structing the delegates at large to the
Chicago convention TO vote for the nomi-
nation of Secretary Taft as long as his
name is before the convention. In adopt
ing the platform it is probable there will
be a strong fight to embody a prOhibi-
ton plank.
