CHARGES AGAINST
 JAS. BRIZZOLARA
Fort Smith Postmaster Under Fire, Which Is Directed by Members of His Party, It Is Said-T
 Much Campaign Activity

Fort Smith, Nov. l2.-Because of allegations that Postmaster James Brizzolara has been guilty of pernicious political activity in the recent campaign and that he has associated with the lawless element, Inspector Martin of the Posiotfice Department is here and will be here several days taking the affidavits and dispositions of complainants.
 The investig ation, 1t is be- lieved, is a direct result of the contest of Thomas Boles, Repub licap, for the seat of Senator Hol- land. The returns of the last state election indicated Holland was reelected by 10 votes. A recount was demanded, and Judge Falconer mentioned for the guber- uatorial nomination on the Demo- cratic ticket, was retained as att torney for Boles. Brizzolara, for many years a leader in state Republican politics, represented Holland. The contest has en- gendered much bitterness. It has been stated that Brizzolara sees the end of his power in state politics If Boles is successful in seeming a seat in the senate, as 1t will mean the rise of younger Republicans and consequently the decline of the old machine, of which General Clayton is the head. Boles represents the younger and disaffected faction Of Republicans in western Arkan- Sas.
 Ia the senatorial fight, Brizzo- lara IS accused of consorting with Democrats iu speech making banquet, which was held in a negro hall, and It is alleged that he displayed lukewarm loyalty to the cause of Boles Tn the election. It is also claimed that he has left much of the management of the postoffice to tha assistant postmaster who is a woman.
 Postmaster Brizzolara denies the charges. He refuses to make statement, but it is known that he is preparing his defense. The accused official has been postmaster for many years, and the local office is said to be one of the most satisfactory to patrons in the entire service.
 Inspector Martin refuses to state who filed information against Brizzolars, but it is thought that the men behind the inquiry are desirous of filling federal offices.

END OE DISPENSARY.
People of Oklahoma Reject the Sys- tenn and State Goes Under
 Strict Prohibition.

Guthrie, Nov. With the defeat of the dispensary with the Bi lups prohibition law. at the polls last Tuesday, Superinten- dent k. F. Lozier of this de- partment is preparing to close up business on the first of Decem- Der. With him will go the dis pensary inspectors, and all of the dispensary agents of the state. Oklahoma IS now under the siric,est kind of prohibition, for by the terms of the referen- dun which went down to defeat, no liquor of any kird can be sold qy dealers, druggists or any body else within the state.
 Reports from various parts of the state are that the wholesale drug companies are loudly com planting because of this new state of affairs. They say that it means a loss of one-third of their business. because outside iobbing houses can ship alcohol by giving bond. and the sale oi this alcohol meant orders for otber drugs. The wholesale drug iobbers in other states are preparing for business campaign ia Oklahoma in which the local houses are prevented from en- tering because of the state law. k

A storehouse in the rear of Mir. and Mrs. H. A. Babcock's house on Twelfth street, was robbed during Tuesday night and clothing belonging to Mr. aud Mrs. Babcock and Bill Royal, the negro who slept in the build ing, and a jug of fue wine was taken.
 Both Mir. and Mrs. Babcock and ueighbors heard noises made by the thieves, but did suspect the real cause.

FOREST SERVICE
 BUILDING ROADS
Now at Work on the One Over the Mountains Beyond Bethesda Springs Invitation to People Who Want
 These Improvements.

The proposed road over tho mountains from Bethesda Spring. is now assured and the right ot way IS being cut out this week Actual grading work will be be. gun next week. Three subscrip ton papers were circulated and a sufficient amount of money and labor was subscribed to warran, the cooperation of the forest ser. vice. One hundred dollars was given by the merchants ot Mena and indications are that they will be more than repaid in the in. creased business which the con- struction of this road will afford
 Several other projects arc now under construction or will be be. gun this month. Near Stating ton. two and one-half miles of road along Crooked creek IS being constructed to avoid the extreme ly rough road over the falls of the Little Missouri. Three trails are also under construction, one leading from the head of Crooked creek to Polk creek, another from Crooked creek down Falls creek, another connecting the head of Sugar creek with Blaylock creek. These trails will be on an even grade, about four feet wide and will bear the distinctive blaze of the forest service, which consists of blaze at breast height with notch above 1t.
 Plans have also been made 10 build road through the gorge made by the Little Missouri in the southern part of Montgomery county, but owing to the difficulty of obtaining right of way, this work has been temporarily delay ed. Subscription papers are be- ing circulated for the con- struction of a road over Blue mountain, about 25 miles north of Hot Springs. This road IS badly needed and will be con. structed this winter. Definite plans for a trail from Rich Noun tain north over Blackfork tn ouu- tain have been made and work on it will begin this month.
 Mir. c. l. Castle of the forest service is inspecting the county northeast of here with a view to other permanent Improvements. The old Tannehill trail probably will Dc greatly improved.
 To make resources of the Ark ansas national forest accessible and to protect them, the forest service hopes eventually, with the cooperation of the local authorities, to build complete system of free roads and trails through this forest.
 The forest service IS not only willing but anxious to cooperate iu the construction and mainten- ance of roads, trails and bridges within the national forests. For est Supervisor Record invites any community which desires to take advantage of this offer to com muuicate with him here.
