THE special campaign, edu- cational and historical edition of The Eureka Springs Flashlight just issued is very neat and at- tractive. But the way it doses out "dope" to a suffering public concerning the Democratic nomi : nees for county officers and a few other citizens, including the edi- tor of The Tribune, is a plenty. There is nothing specially wonderful about the country's s resources and possibilities so graphically described by The Flashlights pen, but how so many great men have been cor ralled within the narrow confines of Carroll county is problem for the gods.

New County Election Board

The appointment of Tom Mor- ris, Linn Field and A. J. Tabor for the board of election commits sioners of Carroll county by the state election board is pronounc- ed "compromise" in that the gracious concession has been made to the Republican party to name one member in the person of MT. Tabor.
 The storm of protests that went up from the Democrats of Eureka Springs and the Western district against the appointment of Field and Morris was wholly ignored and it is to be presumed that those who do not like it "can lump it and take less of it. ' Some such assurance as that was held out to the kickers before the state board acted in the premises.
 The Tribune is not disposed to pass judgment upon the situation at the present time. The public mind it would seem is sufficiently agitated on the subject just now If the people are given square deal in the appointment of elec- tion judges they will know it.
 The people are hardly prepared for the outrages of two years ago, or anything like it. The revolt is centered among the Democrats of the county who believe in a government by the people.
 The ballot box of Carroll county has been ravished a few times too often, and it is not to be wondered at that POS Democrats of the county are said to have signed a pledge not to support candidates of their own party in the county in retaliation for the unheeded demand they made in interest of what they consider a fair election. Just so long as the Democratic party of Carroll county continues to tolerate the action of a few self-constituted leaders, who have to fortify them' e selves in their positions by chi canery, so long will it find that a ''safe majority' is not safe. Such conditions are largely re- sponsible for the heavy trend to- ward independent voting. The balance of power is easily held today in Carroll county by the independent voter if his ballot is counted as cast, and his kind is increasing with each expression of unfairness that comes from party machines. His voice was heard two years ago above the click of the "counting machine and it is going to echo with re- verbration again this year. Mark the prediction.

FOR FAIR ELECTIONS
A. J. Cox Tells How One
 Was Held Four Years Ago

While sitting in our office phi losophizing on the present elec- ton situation in Carroll county, the other day, A. J. Cox passed by the door and we hailed him to come in and "jaw" us a little, when we began to lead out with questions and answers like this:
 O. Mr. Cox, you were one of the Democratic members of the board of County election com missioners four years ago, were you not?
 A. Yes sir, A. A. Coffey, an. other Democrat, of Eureka Springs and Tom Barnett a Re- publican, of Berryville, and l constituted the board in 1904.
 Q. We'll, MT. Cox, can you tell me how it was that you fel- lows managed to appoint judges that year for the several precincts that held an election above the suspicion of fraud?
 A. I guess I can do so. It was very easy job. We had no trouble at all. We simply left off the "ward heelers" in Eureka Springs and appointed men that we knew to be or were reliably informed were honest, sober men, with sufficient education to con- duct the election, in the various precincts of the county. It is no job to find honest men enough in Carroll county for election judges. I don't know how it would be about finding the other kind. l have never tried that.
 0. Did you permit the Re- publican commissioner to select Republican judge in each pre- cinct?
 A. We did most emphatically in every instance. Anything else would have been a prostitu- tion of the intention of the law and a direct invitation to fraud. Any sane man knows that one Republican could not do any dirt if he were amind to do so in an election with two honest Demo- crats against him.
 Q. We'll, Mr. Cox, how did the Democratic nominees fare in the election that year? How many were defeated?
 A. Not one of them were beaten, and this is one of the few elections in dozen or more years in which the full Demo- cratic ticket was elected, and the only one after which cry fraud was not heard
 Q. You do not think that it is necessary to have tricksters and schemers as election judges in the county in order to promote Democratic success?
 A. No sir. The dirty work that has been done in the pri- maries and general elections is wholly responsible for the fact that Democratic defeat is made possible. If voters can not down such fraud one way, they will another. am a "deep dyed in the wood Democrat" bat I am for fair and honest elections, both in the primary and in the general election. A party that tolerates anything else is doomed to defeat and disgrace as surely as time goes on.

LARGEST ARMED FORCE
EVER LANDED BY NAVY
Eight Thousand Marines Parade tne
Streets of San Francisco, Twenty
five Hundred Soldiers Acting as
Escort to Visiting Seamen.

San Francisco--Eight thousand
bluejackets and marines-the largest
armed force the American navy has
ever put ashore in time OF peace or
war-were landed on Thursday from
the combined Atlantic and Pacific
fleets, now lying in the harbor, ana
marched through the streets OF san
Francisco in the most notable parade
the city has ever known.
Twenty-Five hundred soldiers of the
regular army, in full dress array, gra-
ciously acted as an escort to the visit
ing men of the sea and were literally
applauded The cheers, however,
were all reserved for the sailors and
marines.
Rear Admiral Evans, commanding
the fleets, and the six other rear ad-
mirals in command of squadrons and
divisions, rode in carriages.
Secretary of the Navy Metcalf, Gov
ernor Gillette of California and Mayor
Taylor of San Francisco rode in the
parade and afterward reviewed 1t as
it countermarched down Van Ness
avenue In addition to the soldiers
and sailors, there we're large represen-
tations from the National Guard and
from semi-military, veteran and civic
organizations.
battalion of natty little High
school cadets from Salt Lake City act
ed as personal escort to Admiral
Evans in token of his having been ap-
pointed to the naval academy from
the state of Utah.
The parade was the feature of the
day. At night the streets were
thronged with the liberty men of the
fleets, who were given their first leave
ashore. The parks were filled with
holiday crowds, and were gay with
music and illuminations. At the
Fairmont hotel Governor Gillette and
his staff entertained at dinner in
honor of Secretary Metcalf and the
flag and commanding officers of the
fleet. Admiral Evans was unable to
attend, his place being taken by Rear
Admiral Thomas, who responded to
the welcome to the fleet. A number
of informal speeches were made.
