 The Amity Enterprise has the following good word to say of Prof. Hinemon:
 John H. Hinemon, candidate for Governor. is one among the best and cleanest men of our state, and no doubt but what he will receive the largest vote ever cast for any man for that high office"
 That Mir. Hinemon is a clean, straight. honest man none will deny; and if the good people Of the state will only exercise their thinking powers a little before casting their ballots, he will stand a good chance of being the next Governor of Arkansas. Prof. Hinemon is no stranger to the people of southeastern Ar kansas. He came to Monticel- To about 20 years ago, and 1t was through his zeal and ability that one ofthe best Universities in the South was established here. The school is still in a flourish ing condition, and bears his name. From this school, and during Prof. Hincmon's super vision, many boys and girls were graduated, and today are ornaments to the society in which they move. The Con- mercial, published at his old home in Union City, Tenn, says of him:
 Mir. Hinemon is a Democrat. He was born a Southern Demo- crat and his instincts and better judgment have cemented his faith in Democratic principles. He was a member of the Demo- cratic National Committee from Arkansas when Bryan was nom- mated in 190O-the second time and Tn the esteem of the citi- zens and Democrats all over the State he had grown until there was q general demand that he stand for the gubernatorial nom- ination,

All the candidates for Govern or are now going 1t alone. There is no longer a joint canvass. Jeff. Davis, who is canvassing for Kirby, and McFarlane, who seems to be following Jeff. up, are both pitching into Dona- ghey. Kirby, also,sris giving it to Donaghey. and Donaghey is firing back at the bunch, both in print and other wise, while Hine- mon is following the even tenor of his way, abusing no one and running for Governor, strictly on his own merits.

Human nature IS a strange mixture of contradictions. Nine teen out of every twenty men you meet will tell you that he believes that when a man is elected to office he should stay in the office and attend to it's duties; and then when an cleo tion comes of at least 50 per cent. of these same men will vote against the very man who has remained in his office and looked after the business for which he was elected, and cast their ballots for some other fel- low. not half so worthy, simply because he came to see them, while the faithful public servant did not. and the reason why he didn't was because he couldn t without neglecting the business With which the same voters had entrusted him with.

SENATOR CLARK
 SUPPORTS BRYAN

Chicago, October 12.-Asserting that the business interest of the country would be benefited by the election of William J. Bryan, former Senator W. A. Clark of Montana said tonight that he would take the stump and aid in every way possible to bring about the election of the democratic candidate. MT Clark called at the headquarters today and con- ferred with National Chairman Mack. MT. Clark said:
 "Mr Bryan is making a most remark able campaign and l believe his chances are far better than were those in any of his previous contests. He has behind him a truly united democracy. TO me the most foolish thing about this cam paign is the prediction of the opponents of MT. Bryan that the election Of the democratic candidate would injure bus- mess prospects and bring about panic. It will be difficult for Mr. Bryan to do more to disturb business conditions than has Mr. Roosevelt. I have investments in various parts of the country and as a business man I do not hesitate to say that I would not vote for man whose election in my opinion, would ln- jure the business interests of this na- tion. I believe the election of MT. Bryan would stimulate the business world and place it on a firm and healthy basis"
 MT. Clark will make several speeches in Montana and other states.

Frankfort, Ky, October 12.-In offering $500 reward for the apprehension and con viction of the gang of night riders who attacked a negro named Walker in his home in Hickman county last week and slew him, his wife and two children, Gov ernor WilIson today made an extreme appeal to the people of the state to 'arise in their might and put down such lawlessness.
 The governor says:
 'If two or three men had gone to this poor cabin and murdered the fam fly the crime would have shocked hu- manity with it's revelation of incredible wiekedness, brutality and dastardly cow ardice. That a larger number. some 50 men, joined in such crime multiplies the cowardliness and wickedness fifty fold and makes every member of the gang guilty of murder in the first de- gree, the basest, wickedest and most cowardy inhuman murder conceivable in mortal mind.
