A few of the committee were in favor of nominating full ticket, while some considered it advisable to put out only a partial ticket, nominating candidates for only a few of the county offices.

cans of the county give enthusiastic support to the Republican State tick ct.
 One Of the members of the commit tee stated that a seeming apathy had arisen in the ranks of the Republicans ill Jefferson county due to the policy Of practical disfranchisement of a large majority of the Republicans in the county by th~ Democrats and that the sure defeat of the Republican, ticket had killed all enthusiasm.
 The plan of supporting a Repubi can township ticket was recommend ed and the committee voted to adopt this policy Unfavorable comment all so was made of the fact that the State election commissioners had not fol- lowed the recommendation of the Re- publicans in Jefferson county ip nam ing Republican election commis- sioner

 their summers to the work of fitting themselves the better for their several tasks and indirectly raising the stand

 That the Arkansas students in at- ; tendance here are full of State pride and feel a certain esprit de corps for
 each other was made manifest when they gave two picnics in Jackson park, the first taking place the first week in July, the other about two weeks later Both picnics were excellently
 attended and Arkansas songs were
 sung and toasts were made by Messrs
 Briscoe, Beakley, Byrd, Hammond and
 Frisch ia praise of -e Arkansas soil
 trains and women. MT. Wilson was
 the leading spirit in getting up these ; two delightful affairs As an outcome of these gatherings it seems likely , that a permanent organization will be ' formed consisting of Arkansans ill at
 tendance now or heretofore at the
 University of Chicago with the object
 of raising the standards of education
 of our State through closer contact with the great seats of learning.

Toledo, o., Sept. 2.----For an hour
sor more today the grand parade of
the Grand Army of the Republic
with its attendant throngs, served
merely as a back ground, the seem
cry of as dramatic an incident as has
enlivened a political meeting for some
years. Namely the public meeting of
William II. Taft and his erstwhile
rival, Senator Foraker, the Republic
can leader and his late antagonist,
politically. They met in the official
!. reviewing stand, shook hands, smiled
and exchanged greetings, while from
the throngs came a cheer as the sig
nificance of the incident dawned upon
them. '.r4s< *t
The parade was remarkable for the
absence of accidents and cases of
exhaustion, and for the good order
which prevailed, not only among the
dense crowds along the line Of march,
but throughout the city.
Mayor WhitIock tonight stated thai
despite the crowd of visitors there
had been fewer accidents, fewer mis-.
demeanors and less work for the po-
lice generally than on any average
day Of the year.
