CONSOLIDATION OF ELECTIONS.

Senator John Keel of Jackson
county believes that the time has
arrived when the state and federal
elections in this state should be
consolidated, and the Log Cabin
Democrat agrees with him in this
belief. To Little Rock reporter
the other day Mr.. Keel stated that
he would introduce bill as soon
as the legislature convenes to
change the time of holding the BIZ
ennial state election SO as to make
1t coincident with the national
election.
In speaking OF the matter, Mr..
Keel says:
1.-The great amount of apathy
displayed by Democrats in the re-
cent election shows c6nclusively
that if something of the kind is not
done the Republicans will succeed
in landing one or two congressman
in the near future. The cry of
negro domination can no longer be
used, and the repeal of the federal
election laws should be sufficient
guarantee that federal interference
in elections in the South is thing
of the past.
But this is not the principal ad-
vantage. We have too many cleo
tons and too much politics. They
cost too much money aud too much
time. The actual expense of hold
ing the elections, though large in
amount, is relatively small. We
once heard a public speaker de-
clare that politics cost Arkansas at
least a million dollars a year. He
figured it out this way: There are
at least zoe, 900 men in Arkansas
who devote at least ten days every
TWO years 10 taking pOiitlCS, WoIk-
ing in the interest Of candidates,
going to and from the polls and all
the various activities which each of
the many elections brings about.
This means two million days work
every two years, and at the low
rate of one dollar per day, amounts
to waste of a million dollars a
year.
Anything that will reduce the
number of campaigns and elections
ought to be welcomed by the peo-
pie of Arkansas.

DELAYS ON THE GAS WELL
Drillers Can't Get Wood to Keep Their En-
gines Going.

x1uCS VVAuX
Little Rock, Nov. tI.-Col. ].
B. Jones arrived home yesterday
afternoon from Chicago. While
at Chicago Col. Jones discussed
the natural gas for Little Rock
proposition with Charles G. Dawes,
the capitalist, who owns large
block of stock in the Pulaski Gas
Light Company, and is also inter
ested in the Plumervilie gas we'll.
The drillers of the Plumerville
we'll are meeting with one delay
after another. For the first few
weeks the work progressed rapidly
and depth of 1850 feet was
reached. According to the report
of the geologist in the employ OF
the company gas lies not more
than a few hundred feet beneath
the present location of the drill
but i'll fate has set in and not a
single foot has been gained for
several weeks.
First it was the breaking of a
cable and the drilling was sus-
pended until the arrival of a new
one from the East. Now another
difficulty is faced il the refusal Of
the negroes in the neighborhood to
cut and deliver wood, all the avail
able fuel for the engine having
been exhausted. Col. Jones talk
ed to the superintendent by tele-
phone last night, and the latter
was unable to set date at which
work at the we'll will be resumed.

FROM THE.
CAPITAL CITY

<<<<<<<<<<%<N
Little Rock, Nov. Io-The first
CT ristian Science funeral ever held
in Arkansas, took place here yes
terday afternoon when leaders OF
the faith conducted services from
their ritual over the remains of
c. E. Butler, young man who
died Sunday morning. The ser
vices were much similar to that OF
the churches, being attended with
prayer, song and reading from the
ritual. The deceased was a mem
Der of the firm of the Cans Wall
paper Co., and died of malarial
fever.
Preparations are being made by
the Masons of Little Rock for the
meeting of the Grand lodge OF
Arkansas, which convenes here
for a two days session Nov. 10.
The grand lodge this year will be
presided over by Grand Master
w. M. Greeson, Of Prescott. AS
about 1900 have been attending
the sessions of the Grand Lodge in
the last few years, preparations are
this year being made for the recep-
ton of fully 1000. The forms OF
entertainment to the visiting Ma
sons this year will be more varied
than in past years.
Commissioner of Agriculture
Guy B. Tucker will before the end
of the week send to the sheriff OF
each county of the state one of his
blanks for the information which
is gathered for the cotton reports
issued from the agricultural de-
partment. This will be about the
last bulletin OF the year, and Com
missioner Tucker expects to issue
it about the middle of next week.
On account of the exceptionally
open fall, the report is expected to
show fully 20 per cent better con-
dition of crops than was expected
and prophecied in the last report.
Over 10 cents have been offered
for the 267 bales of cotton now on
hand from the state farm, but the
penitentiary board is again hold
ing for a better price. The cotton
from the State farm is superior to
the majority of that raised in the
state, grading very high. 1t has
a staple of from an inch and an
eighth to an inch I'd quarter in
length and brings from cent to
cent and a half more than the mar
ket price at all times.
Every Saturday night for the
past four weeks, one or two places
of business have been entered by
bunglesome cracksman, who breaks
the combination from the safe in
the store, and in all cases but one,
where SEQ was secured, has left
without results, other than ruin
ing the safe. Last Saturday night
the Leiper store, on Elm street was
entered and the combination which
was not on at that time, was bat
tered off, and by use of a Ratchet,
the inner door was bent open far
enough to allow the thief to get
his hand in and secure $40 out of
the cash drawer. The cracksmen
then took their sledgehammer and
went into Argenta where they were
frightened away. The city detec-
tives now have a clew to the men
who have ruined at least ten safes
in Little Rock, and arrests are ex-
pected before night.

service as locomotive engineer on
the n. Y. N. H. & H. K. r.,
without a serious accident at any
time. Solomon Close settled down
to spend the balance of his life in
peace in Stamford. To him one
day came the idea of gathering
from the different states of the
Union a sack of earth with which
to fertillze the Connecticut soil
to place the earth from each sack
at the root of a tree planted on
Arbor Day in 1909 by the school
children of the town. He began
writing to the postmasters OF the
capital of each state, and after Sc
curing 40 sacks of earth, wrote to
Postmaster w. S Holt. who i'm
! mediately sent to Mr.. Close por-
ton of the first shovelful of earth
turned up in the new government
business annex. Mr.. Close re-
quested that the dirt be taken from
some historical spot if possible and
when the tree is planted he will
label each with a tablet telling of
the soil about the tree. There was
nothing begging about the letter
of Mr.. Close, as he even sent the
small sack for the dirt and also
stamps for its postage to Stamford.
81 have earth now from 40 states,
Mr.. Close wrote to Postmaster
Holt, land also from the Canal
Zone, Isthmus of Panama, Cuba,
Porto Rico, Hawaii, and hope be-
fore next arbor day to have some
from every state, territory and
island that the American flag
waves over.
Capt. F. W. Tucker, chairman
of the executive committee of the
State Republican Committee, stat
ed yesterday afternoon that he
was certain thee would be vigo-
rous contests made in the First
and Seventh Congressional dis
trict over the results of the recent
election. He says he does not
consider the action of c. T. Blood
worth in the First, in engaging at
torneys to represent him in con-
test, any bluff, and thought the
grounds for a contest in both dis
tricts to be excellent Speaking
of making public the cost of the
Republican campaign in Arkansas,
Capt. Tucker said he is ready to
give out the expenditures Just as
soon as the Democrats are ready to
make known theirs.

fast approaching her. He says he
rushed to her assistance, and as he
reached for the child the car struck
them both. The car belonged to

consent were last week awarded t
the child, in the sum of $500, and
500 was given the mother through

EMPLOYING CONVICTS
CANAL ZONE AUTHORITIEs ARE
BUILDING GOOD ROADS.

After a trial of eleven weeks, the en-
plOyment Of convicts and local prisoners
at highway building in the Canal Zone is
said by the division of municipal enGi-
stage. according to the current issue of
the Canal Record. which just reached
Washington. Three distinct ends were in
view in the program submitted by the
special committee on the employment OF
prisoners which was approved last Feb
ruary. The first of these was the i'm
provement of the prisoners condition;
second. the opening up to development of
the fertile valleys of the Canal Zone and
third, reimbursing the government for the
expense of maintaining its penal system.
This is said to be the first systematic
effort made TO develop the Isthmus Of
Panama by building good roads. 1t is
the idea OF the originatOrs of the plan
that Panama can be made garden-lik !
as Hawaii and by the same means-prison
labor.
For bookkeeping purposes the division
of municipal engineering credits the de-
partment of civil administration with 50
cents gold a day for each prisoner en-
ployed. The division that employs the
men holds that such good labor could not
be purchased on the isthmus for that
price. and the department of civil adj
ministration finds that the revenue from
it's prisoners is greater than the expenses
Of keeping them.

remained behind at Caxton Hall, reservng
themselves. as they now explain, for a
really serious invasion OF parliament
Thursday.
The police, mounted and on foot. were in
strong force in the neighborhood of the
parliament buildings, and for two or three
hours that neighborhood was the scene OF
riots and skrmishes on account of the
efforts OF the suffra gettes to break
through the police Gordon and reach the
lobby of the house of commons.
Ruses and Disguises.
Numerous ruses and DISCUSSES were en-
ployed for this purpose, but none sue
ceeded. In the end, twentynine of the
women were arrested, including two bold
spirits who drove in cab to Downing
street and threw stones and smashed the
windows of the premier's residence. and
others who chartered boats on the Thames
and tried to harangue the members OF the
house on the terrace through meSaphones.
Mrs Asquith and her daughter watched
the scenes from the balcony o'eIloohiHS
Parliament square.
Earlier in the afternoon the women had
assembled to the number of several nun
dred in Caxton Hall and sent deputation
to the house of commons for the purpose
of interviewing Premier Asquith in the
matter of the immediate granting of the
franchise to women. At the house, now
ever the members Of this deputation were
met by a solid body of police and were
refused admission.
The premier, also in curt message.
declined to see them. and when the dele
CATION returned to CaXton Hall their ar
rival was the signal for a noisy denun-
citation of the government and a decision
to collect forces for an effective demon
stration at the house of commons.
Hundreds of police were guarding the
| house in view of the projected raid. but
| the suffragettes repaired nevertheless to
the vicinity. and after o'clock made
| several rushes with the results already
] noted
