ELECTION IN
ARKANSAS TODAY.
Democrats Expect to Poll a Larger
Vote Than Ever Before.
Especial to the ARGUs.)

topOS1ol w IN
Little Rock, Ark, Sept. 14-Arkan-
sas is holding it's bienniel State cleo
ton today for State and county officers
and members of the legislature.
Comparatively little interest is man
Tested in the election, owing to the
certainty of success for all the Demo-
cratic candidates.
The Republican vote III
never has amounted to more than 80
Or 40 per cent of the total. This year
the emocrat expect to poll a larger
vote than ever before.
This expectation is based on the
popularity of George w. Donaghey,
the candidate for governor, and also on
the fact that the Democrats vote in the
primary last March vas largest ever
recorded in this State. The Republican
State ticket is headed by John 1. Wor-
thington for governor. Several Of the
minor parties have tickets in the field
but this is not expected to affect the
results materially.
The State election, owing to the loca
issues and existing conditions, is re
gardsd as of little or no real value al
an aid in fereoasting the general re
suits of the presidential contest mex
November.

his equity in the premises. In rebuff

As a matter of fact, harmony and a
