NAMES ON JUDICIARY BALLOT.

The last legislature passed law
providing for the non-partisan NOM
nation of judges of the supreme
court. Attention is called to the fact
that there is no provision for the ro-
tation of names On this ballot, and
if the names are arranged in alpha
betical order, the candidates appear
ing at the top of the list will have
distinct advantage. The Carpio
News comments on the matter as fol-
lows:
The new law provides for separ-
ate ballot for judicial candidates
without any party designation and
does not provide for the rotation of
names in any way.
~, This means that the secretary OF
state will have to arrange the names
alphabetically or in order Of the date
of filing of petition or by lot or some
way in his discretion. The editor is
not a lawyer but it is supposed to~be
fact that where discretion is given
an executive officer the supreme court
will not interfere: We are sure the
secretary will show. his usual fairness
but still it is unfortunate that the
law should not have fully covered
this matter. If alphabetically ar
ranged John Burke Judge Carmody
would have by far the big advantage
and this would not be fair to the re-
-pubIicans, although we recognize
the fact that these men may be good
timber for the bench at that.
Practical politicians predict that
! the vote cast for the judicial nomi-
nees is a most Indifferent one. Out
side Of perhaps few hundred afsor-
news and few hundred business men
who are thrown into more orless
close association with the courts It Is
probable that the great majority OF
voters Will Ypte for the first three

MEMBERS OF ASSOCIATED PRESS
THE FARMER THEN AND NOW.

Aberdeen News: A few years ago
everybody was plying the poor farm
ers. The political cartoonist OF those
DAYS invariably depicted the farmer
as a poor, Godforsaken appearing
fellow. with patches on the seat of
his trousers. A political party OF
substantial size was built up on the
theory that the farmer was not get
ting a fair deal from the rest of the
American people. There was some
Justice in the farmers complaint,
even though the cause OF the evils
complained of was not what the poll
teal part most given to commiserat-
ing the farmers lot contended it was.
In those days, corn sold for Ii cents
a bushel, butter for 10 or Is cents a
pound, eggs for or cents dozen,
wheat for from sc to 40 cents bush
ell, and, other things grown on the
farm brought proportionate prices.
Now, if a political party were
formed to alleviate suffering of any
particular class, it would no doubt
turn to the down-trodden city man.
For the farmer who drives a pair
prancing steeds, or an automobile, to
the city to dispose of his crops re-
ceives from SO to 40 cents pound
for his butter and similar price for
his eggs, is in no need of commissera-
ton. In fact, he isn't asking for it.
Milk is high priced and so hard to
get that many an unfortunate Ct
man is forced to feed his helpless
babies upon condensed milk. Flax
sold on the twin city market yes
terday for 81, wheat brings from IS
cents to a dollar on the Aberdeen
market, corn sells for GO cents at Chi
cago, oats are "a cents in Aberdeen,
and other things in proportion, while
land in Brown county which would
scarcely sell for the taxes twenty
years ago now brings as high as SIS
an acre. The cartoonist no longer
pictures the farmer as forlorn ap-
'pearing being. Instead, he is shown
up in the newspapers as he really is
fat Of pocketbook, well-dressed,
prosperous appearing-a man who
has more money in the bank than he
can conveniently dispose of and who
is continually on the lookout for safe
investments for his surplus funds.
Somebody may be suffering in these
piping times of peace and prosperity
but it isn't the farmer.

the opposition of the city contrac-

behind much of the opposition to

people for the conduct of the city's

surprise to members of the charter

Lambert consistent opponent of
the amendment giving the mayor
greater powers.
Mr.. Lambert has submitted an
amendment which will go to the
people to be voted on, which in its
nature does not begin to give the
mayor as much power as the
amendmtnt proposed by the char
ter commission. The amendment
proposed by Mr.. Lambert follows
closely the present city charter,

NEW ROAD OVERSEERS
Judge Dodson Writes Us
 Concerning Requirements.

Berryville, Ark, May %. Mir. J. l.. Russell,
 Dear Sir:-yours of the 24th received. I enclose you commissions for Road Over seers whose bonds you sent in. Do not deliver these commits sions until oath of office has been taken.
 I also return bonds as the parties will have to have these bonds recorded in the office of the circuit clerk. This will cost them one dollar each.
 The money has not been ap- portioned to the various road districts and will not be until after the July term of court. I have no extra copies of the new road law, consequently can not furnish them.
 It is my opinion that men sub- ject to road duty will have to work in the road in the district he lives in, as the transfer is only for school purposes.
 Respectfully yours,
 J. B. DoDsoN,
 County Judge.

I eachers' Institute.

The Teachers Institute of Car roll county will be in session at the Public School building in the town of Berryville, Ark, from June ' to IS. Every teacher in the county desiring to teach is expected to attend this institute.
 The teachers will assemble Monday at II a. m., at the court house and enroll and be assign ed homes.
 The same instructors that have done such excellent work in the past two years will occupy the same places this year. Prof. C.. c. Denny will have Psychology and Prof. Burney English. These teachers are too well known to need any introduction. No manuals have been received from the State Superintendent, hence they cannot even be sent to the instructors.
 It is hoped that the same de. gree of progress will be seen for this year that was so apparent in the past institute. The usual per cent for each days attend apce at the institute will be al- lowed on examination as in the past.

SAD ACCIDENT

Ellis Dooling, the 10-year old son of Mir. and Mrs. E. c. Dool- ing, was instantly killed in a runaway accident that occurred late Wednesday afternoon.
 The little fellow was helping his grand father J. c. McNemar, the town Marshall, in cleaning up rubbish and az they were leaving town with the last load for the day, the team became frightened in the vicinity of the public school building and ran, turning the corner east in the lane by Mrs. Mary Phillips place. Almost in front of the Phillips house the boy was thrown out between the frantic horses, his bead striking in a pile of rocks and the wagon wheels passing over the body. His skull was crushed and one of his legs broken in three places.
 A few steps from where the boy was killed Joe McNemar, Ellis uncle, was thrown out and sustained several painful hurts, and at the turn in the lane a half quarter farther east, MT. McNemar was dumped into the wire fence, his body being badly, though not necessarily seriously cut on the wire. He also sustained a severe bruise of the right shoulder. Some dis tance from this point the team ran into a wire fence and hung up.
 The unfortunate boy way the baby of the family and the only child of Mrs. Dooling. He was pronounced an exceptionally good boy. The grief that the tragedy has brought to the Dool- ing home is indiscribable. The mother is unconsolable and the shock has rendered her in a very critical condition, the constant care of doctor being necessary.
 The funeral took place at the Zion Hill cemetery Thursday afternoon.

 The excellent prospects for a yeild of potatoes this year is a subject of general comment. It looks like for one time this sec- tion would have "spuds" to sell instead of having to buy this ] year. It ought to be that way every year. The crop is never cut short enough to make good excuse for buying northern po- tatoes, yet there has not been season for several years but what more or less northern grown products have found a market here. The home supply gener- ally gives out before the fancy prices are reached. There if good money in the potato busi- ness in this country.
