gal nomination of Minor Wallace AS
Yet Mr.. Rutherford has not been mott

there is no reason 10 doubt whatever
that Mr.. Rutherford will call the com

Mr.. Goodwin in his petition charges
that Joseph Galloway, who was chair
man Of the congressional committee in
the Seventh district, and acted as
chairman during part of the congress
sional convention, gave Mr.. Wallace
the certificate of nomination after hay
ing counted the vote in only five
of the counties in the district. Mr.
Goodwin claims that he had the ma
jority of votes in the / | counties, and
that he is rightfully the nominee. He
asks the central committee either to
make a complete and thorough cam
vass of the vote in the district or order
another primary.

VAST RESPONSIBILITIES.
A Short Extract from Notable
Speech by Gov. Johnson.


We are confronted by vast opportu-
mites and responsibilities, and with
lost ground to recover A bad eco
nomic policy and political treachery
cost us the benefit of commercial free
dom with Canada. Had We been fair
and decent with our sister country
across the boundary, the trade of Can
ada would have been ours, and com
mercially il not politically the two
countries would have been one We
are told it is now too late Canada
has grown away from us, instead of
toward us. A false policy has robbed
us of our own. Congressman elect
ed to represent our interests in reci-
procity with Canada have gone to
Washington in the interests of pine
land combine and worked to make
reciprocity impossible
The American flag ought now to
float over all North America; but that
union either politically or commercial
ly can never take place until a larger
patriotism can rise above political cant
and private greed From d Speech by

SALE OF THE
STATE FARM COTTON
Will Bring Something Over $4,000 =
Board Lost About $4,000 by Not
Selling Some Months Earlicr.

The state farm cotton was sold yes
terday morning by the Penitenliary
Board Cotton Committee to p 2. Byrd
& Co, cotton buyers of Pine Bluff, for
10 II cents per pound. \ total of
1906 bales was sold, and the entire
amount will bring between 500, 600 and
$4,000 The cotton will be weighed az
once, and as soon as it is all weighed
in the Penitentiary Board will receive
cash for the entire amount.
Several we'll known cotton buyers in
this section Of the country have been
bidding ON the state farm cotton for
the past several days, but the price
offered WAS considered by the board to
be too low. At the meeting of the Pen
itentiary Board Monday night an offer
of little more than 9 cents on the
pound was made by some of the buy
ers, but this the board refused.
Yesterday morning, however, the To-
cal agent for p. T.. Byrd 4 Co au-
peared before State Auditor Avery L.

negotiations for the transfer Of the
cotton at the agents price, disposiuG of

superintendent Pitcock and John NJ.
Page, secretary Of the Penilentiary
Board, will go to Pine Bluff today TO
weigh the cotton. The work of weigh

days
Al present it is hard to estimate the
exact amount that the entire lot of cot
