LITTLE KIDS SCRAP IN
ARGUMENT ON BALL

Americus loyalty to her ball team
extends from the cradle to the grave,
and the quickest way to start row
is to reflect upon the Champs. A
day or two ago four little tots, none
of them above six years, were play
ing in front of their home on jack
son avenue when baseball entered as
a subject of debate. The statement
that Albany had once beat Americus
started the hair-p pulling, and a Iree
fight with baby fists was only queiled
by the timely arrival of the maternal
switch engine.

GRIFFIN IS STILL
 AFTER JEFF DAVIS

Ben l.. Griffin. secretary of the Farmers Union, was in the city again yesterday on his Way from Stephens, Ark, where he spoke last night, after Senator Jeff Davis was heard there
 He again denounced statements of Da- vis, which, he says, reflected upon the Farmers Union and himself. Ac- cording to MT. Griffin, a. band, employ cd by Jeff Davis and paid $25 by Da- wis, met the Senator at the depot Tt Stephens. Later the band boys, with others, declared. while Davis was speaking, that they were not Davis men and that they were for Donaghey. The incident was recorded when Davis

V. I. AIMS, THE
 REFoRMER, HERE
Addressed Hinenon Club at the Court House Last Night in the Interest of Proh btion and Hinemon-De- nounced Davis Machine and Said He Ought to Be in Washington Bursting Trusts

|, that Hinemon has devoted much of his past life for prohibition. He charged that Pindau has threatened
 the saloon men if they do not line al
 for Donaghey. Hinemon has no polit- l ical machine and is without organi- zation, basing his claims upon his own merits.
 Reverend Amis prophesied that not single saloon man nor sympathizer in the State would vote for J. H.
 Hinemon next Wednesday. The liquor 1 traffic, he said. was opposed to good laws, good officials and good citizen
 ship. Lets strike deathblow to the saloon,' exclaimed the speaker. i Reverend Amis did not overlook
 lawlessness in Hot Springs. He de-
 clared that his city once had 70 sa
 looms, : pool rooms. false security companies, small race horses devices i (''where you pull the trigger. the
 horses go round and you lose your
 money'). Hot Springs was an open
 Sunday town and it once had the "drtiest political crowd in the world All of these things were bred by the
 saloon, he contended.
 The speaker said that Hinemon and his supporters were going to ram politics into that liquor crowd until
 there will be nothing left but good
 politics, and furthermore" he said,
 we are going to wipe the saloon
 from the State of Arkansas.
 Reverend Amis said Hinemon was the strongest man in the race. He is
 now 10000 votes in the lead of any other candidate, he said, and he urged voters not to be misled with political trickery. He declared that Hinemon
 would receive 1000 of the 2,30O votes in Garland county. "Why?' asked the
 speaker, Because we have 1000 C. l. US there and they are going to ] stick together
 Reverend Amis was frequently ap- plauded. He closed by paying bean- tiful tribute to Mr. Hinemon. He said he was one of the noblest, purest and best citizens of Arkansas and that he would be elected governor on March 25
 l Reverend Amis leaves this morning l for Camden, where he is billed to speak today.

To the People of Pine Bluff

To the People of Pine Bluff:
 Those who represent the business interests of this city, with it's popula- ton of nearly thirty thousand, it's beautiful homes, it's substantial up-to- date business houses, together with everything that goes to make up a prosperous, thriving city, do not seem to realize that the great inter ests of the city of Pine Bluff arc not adequately protected against con tingencies that might arise at any Aime. The property value of this city is too great to allow such a con- dition of affairs to exist. The city of Pine Bluff, like almost every other city of it's size in the South, has a population composed of people from almost every walk of life, and We are no more immune from riot and other disorders than is any city of like size in the world. The fact is, from the very nature of things (consider- ing our mixed population) we are far from being immune from such disorders.
 Tn case of a serious riot here, race or otherwise, We would be compelled to depend upon our police force and our citizenship. The police depart

Griffin left that afternoon for Conway. While here he displayed an invita- ton, signed by 2S0 residents of Rus. sellville and Pope county, Davis home, inviting him to speak there on next Monday, when Senator Davis will appear there. The invitation stated that they wanted to hear Mir. Griffin discuss the side issues" of the pres ent State campaign. Among the signers to the invitation are Mayor k. B. Hogins, ". II. Poynter, A. 1T. Humphreys, A. A. Hoop, ". R. Craig, Floyd Wells and many others, Mfr. Griffin says he will be there.

ment of this city is as good, if not better, than the police department of any city in the State. Our citizenship is composed of men as loyal and as
 true as can be found anywhere in the world. But, HOW A4oE THEY PREPARED TO PROTECT THEM SELVES, THEIR FAMILIES AND THEIR PROPERTY INTERESTS IN CASE OF SUCH A CONTINGENCY? Are you aware, people of Pine Bluff, that since the first of the lyear, or soon thereafter. Company II, Second Regiment of the Arkansas
 State Guard. with headquarters at Pine Bluff, has been mustered out of the service FOR LACK OF INTER- EST? And do you know that the equipment of that company has been returned to Adjutant General Little at Little Rcok?
 Citizens of Pine Bluff, this is a matter that demands your most ear nest and serious consideration You will find the State willing and anx-
 ious to assist the people of this city
 in building up a National Guard or
 ganization.
 We should have a first class armory in Pine Bluff and the business men of the city ought to subscribe lib-
 erally to such building Every
 resident of the city should take an
 active interest in the organization and maintenance of at least one company
 of the State Guard. The young men of the city. especially, should interest themselves in this matter.
 I would like to see the daily papers take this matter up, comment upon it and make criticisms and sugges- tions in regard to it. The matter should be kept before the people until some action is taken to insure the formation and maintenance of such an organization.

Reverend W. T. Amis, the celebrated reformer from Hot Springs, spoke last night at the Jefferson county court house in the interest of J. II. IIinemon's candidacy and prohibition. His address was made under the aus pices of the Jefferson County Hine- mon Club, at whose invitation he came here, and 3 good sized audience, among which were many ladies, heard him.
 For more than two hours the mag nificent oratory of Reverend Amis held the close attention of his hear CTS. It must be admitted that Rev erend Amis is an orator of the best type It matters not how his senti- ments were taken last night, the ay craze person who heard him was well entertained and enjoyed his spell binding oratory.
 Reverend Ams was introduced by R. W. Lane, president of the Hinemon club. The chairman stated that he needed no introduction to the people of this city. Reverend Amis visited Pine Bluff on a former occasion when he made the address of the day at the Labor Day celebration at Jones' park last September.
 Reverend AmiS is touring the State in the interest of Hnemon and pro- hibition. He has spoken at several Southeast Arkansas points the past week. Last night he dwelt at length on the gubernatorial race and review ed the prohibition question, pro and con, a Y showed that he had given the subNct much study. He reviewed what he termed the merits of the three gubernatorial candidates and de- clared that Hinemon's platform was the soundest upon which either of them stand. He said Kirby and Dona- ghey are standing on platforms of doubt" Kirby, he said, was backed by the mighty Davis; that he will be controlled, if elected, by the same gang that has dominated the affairs of Arkansas for the past several years. He urged a change in the affairs of this State and declared that because of his political alignment and influ- ence, Kirby would give the people no change. He said Jeff Davis ought to be in Washington. "bursting trusts instead of in Arkansas dictating to the people.
 Donaghey, he said, is not without political alignments. Pindalls ma chine, though of miniature construc- tion, is furthering his interests. Pin dall has made promises to deliver the liquor traffic in Arkansas to Donas sey and that is why. the speaker con,ln- ued, Donaghey has not taken definite stand on prohibition. He evades the question: That's the thing the saloon men want him to do, favor the ma jority rule. Reverend Amis declared
