 Three miles of additional levee along the Arkansas river front in this county are expected to be con structed by the new district, in time to prevent an overflow next spring. The new levee will begin some distance below the Little plantation, which is already pro- tected by Levee District No. I, and will extend to the Martin place, protecting the lower Moss place and the Stevens, Cribbs, Smith and B. l.. Harton lands. Between 2ooo and 5000 acres of this land was overfowed by the high waters last spring, while tue land further up the river was protected by a levee and was never in danger.

No Mayor Chosen by City Coun-

 Nominated.

After two candidates had been put in nomination for mayor of Conway, the city council adjourn ed until the next regular meeting without taking vote, and the of flee will be filled by Acting May or Opie Hartje at least until Nov. 10.
 When the election of mayor to fill the vacancy caused by the re- signation of Frank E. Robins, was taken up last night, A. J. Witt, Sr., was nominated by Al derman L. C. Holman, and c. E. Durham was nominated by Alderman Lee Schwarz. Mir. Holman, who is a business partner of MT. Durham, explained to the council that the latter would not accept the position. With only one dissenting vote, a motion was then carried to defer the election until the next regular meeting.
 An ordinance to fix tax on theatres and opera houses. includ- ing moving picture shows, was in- troduced, read the first time and referred 10 the judiciary committee.
 Light Plant Report Refused.
 Chairman R. B. McCulloch of the electric light plant committee, to which was referred the annual report of the electric light improve ment district board, made report refusing to accept that boards re- port and asking that 1t be referred back to the board for a more de- tailed statement. The committee report was adopted by the council.
 A petition to change the build ing permits of S. M. Apple and George w. Donaghey so as to al- low the erection of two story brick building on the west side of the pub lie square was referred to the i'm provement committee with instruc- tions to have a resolution granting the permission drafted.

CREENBR|ER
 MAN INSANE

In response to telephone mes sage from Greenbrier Deputy Sheriffs J. s. Johnson and c. w. Stewart left this morning for Greenbrier to take charge of Am brose Benton, who 1t was reported had become violently insane.
 MT. Benton's mind has been af- fected for some months, and he has been gradually getting worse. He was tried in circuit court here sixteen years ago for the killing of William Smith and was acquitted. Breeding over the killing of Mrs. John w. Cartwright by her hus- band at Wooster several weeks ago is said to have caused his mental condition to grow worse.

COUNTY FAIR SUCCESSFUL
Much Interest Manifested in Fair Just
 Closed at Morrilton.

The first Conway county fair is a thing of the past, but in its passing much good was accomplished, and the ground work for bigger and better one was laid for next year. While the attendance was not so large as it should have been, the interest was good, and each one we met was enthusiastic for a fair next year, and many went home with the intention of growing or making something for the next fair that would get the blue ribbon. The exhibits were indeed fine and larg- CT than many thought possible to collect in so short a time, and many favorable remarks were passed upon the size and quality of the display.-Morrilton Democrat.

TO DISMISS CONSPIRACY CASES
Faucette and Cumnock Charges
 to be Set Aside.
Another one of the Famous Legislative Bribery Cases will be Nolle
 Pressed.

Little Rock, Oct. 30. o.-Sometime this afternoon or tomorrow, an ot- ficial announcement is expected from Prosecuting Attorney Roy D. Campbell, dismissing the charges of conspiracy against Frank Cum mock, former mayor of Barring Cross, and w. c. Faucette, mayor of Argenta. These two officials were indicted in the summer of 1907 by the circuit court at Perry vile, for attempting to bribe the jury which tried Senator A. T. Gross for bribery and which con- victed him. They were tried here on change of venue and convict ca, being sentenced to serve six months each and pay a fine of $500.
 An appeal was taken to the su- preme court, the case being re- versed and remanded. The man. date was filed with the circuit court several days ago, and since, Prosecuting Attorney Campbell has held several consultations with Judge R. J. Lea. who presided ov- CT the hearing, and as both think a conviction can hardly be secured after the supreme court reversal, the case will never again come up for trial. Prosecuting Attorney Campbell says that the supreme court removed all chances for con- viction. The men were convicted by Lewis Rhoton when he was prosecuting attorney. The state alleged Cumnock undertook to bribe James Shackleford, deputy prosecuting attorney, to fix the jury so it would not return yer dict against Gross, and SIoo was secured from Faucette and paid to him at Perryville. The great ex- pense of another trial is also against rehearing of the cases.

RIVER WILL RISE AGAIN
More Rains Reported Along the Neosho
 In Kansas.

There will be another material rise in the Arkansas river today at Little Rock, and at Pine Bluff to- morrow, according to the prediction yesterday at the Weather Bureau.

The river at Fort Smith yesterday morning showed another rise of g foot, which repre- sented IS fset rise in 48 hours.
 The river had also risen foot at Dardanelle. It showed fall of 6 foot at Little Rock and fall of B foot at Pine Bluff. The river at Little Rock was at stage of 2I.I fet, or 9 feet under the flood stage.

CONTEST WILL
 BEGIN MONDAY

The big S75o piano voting con- test to be conducted by the Daily and Weekly Editions of The Log Cabin Democrat will begin on next Monday, November 5. A full page advertisement containing all the details of the contest appears on another page of this issue.
 This contest is without doubt the biggest enterprise ever conducted by country newspaper in Arkan- sas and we hope to have large number of entries. A little work upon the part of some woman or girl may result in her winning one of these elegant prizes.
 Those who expect to enter should send their names to The Log Cab in Democrat at once, using the nomination blank printed in the advertisement, which will entitle the contestant to 100 votes as a starter. The earlier the entry is made the better 1t will be for the contestant, as subscribers will be paying their subscriptions every day after Monday, and many may desire to cast their votes at once.
 The pianos described have al- ready been bought and will be put on display at places to be announc- ed within few days. They are fine instruments and make prizes of which anyone might we'll be proud.
