The meeting took place behind
closed doors in the directors rooms OF
the Chamber OF Commerce building
and only two assistant secretaries to
President Taft were present to report
the addresses of the executives.
After having received President
Diaz on American soil President Taft
himself crossed the international Dor.

ident Diaz az the customs house in
the quaint little city cf Ciudad Juarez.
Again the two presidents were closet
ed for a few minutes and President
Diaz repaid the hospitable courtesies
which had been extended to him
while a guest of the American people.
President Taft returned to the United
States and reviewed military parade
in this city in the afternoon In the
evening he crossed into Mexican ter

President Diaz rode to the meeting
with President Taft over streets that
were lined with soldiers, 5000 regular
troops having been augmented by the
national guard.
The troops surrounded the Chamber
of Commerce building during the time
that President Diaz was there. Mem

corridors and main rooms of the
chamber of commerce while President
Diaz and President Taft were in the

The addresses were formal, but cor

of the meeting throughout being to
make it an informal celebration of the
cordial relations existing between the
two countries.
President Taft was attired In the

C. f. MARTIN FOR TREASURER

Another new candidate in the field
this year is C.. F. Martin of Clifton
township, whose announcement for
treasurer appears in this issue of the
Log Cabin Democrat. While young in
wears, Mr.. Martin is old in the service
of the Democratic party and has never
cast a vote for any man other than
the Democratic nomi nee. For the past
five years he has served as central
committeeman from his township, re
signing at the recent meeting of the
committee in order to enter his pres
ent race. He was born and reared in
Clifton township. Mr.. Martin says
that if elected he will devote his entire
time to the duties of the office, which
he will perform to the best of ability.
As this is the first time he has asked
for a county office. his strength is to
some extent an unknown quantity, but
he will doubtless prove a strong fac
tor in the race.

TATIVE.

The Log Cabin Democrat publishes
today the formal announcement of
Prof. T. j. Bullion of Conway as a
ear didate for representative of Faux
Eer county. subject to the action of
the Democratic primary on January A
next. Coming to this county soon
after the civil war, during which ne
fought in the Confederate army, Prof.
Bullion is no stranger to the people.
For many years he has been regarded
as one Of the county's leading teachers
and has served four years as county
clerk and one term as representative.
His experience in the latter office is
such as to make him valuable man
to the county, as during the session he
was one of the most respected and
popular men in the lower house. While
in no sense an orator, Prof. Bullion
lis man of sound, practical ideas and
rugged honesty, and in his quiet, UNI
assuming way he is able to accomplish
much more in the way of legislation
than many of his colleagues. Faux
ner county would make no mistake by
returning him to the legislature.

G. D. SOWELL FOR REPRESEN.
TATIVE.

George d. Sowell of Cypress town
ship announces in this issue of the
Log Cabin Democrat his candidacy for
representative of Faulkner county,
subject to the will of the Democratic
voters as expressed in the primary
election to be held on January 4. Mr.
Sowell is one of the "wheelhorses" in
the Democratic ranks, having fought
the battles of the party in its dark
est days. He has served as the CEN
trail committeeman from his township
for II years. Eight years ago he made
the race for the position he now seeks
and though defeated, received very
credtable vote. He was reared in his
present home township and no man
stands higher among his home people
than Mr.. Sowell. He believes that he
is equipped to represent the county in
a manner which will reflect credit
upon himself and his constituents, and
asks the Democrats of the county to
pive his merits and qualifications a
fair consideration when they go to
the polls to vote.

CANDIDATES HIT THE WOODS

Many of the candidates for county
offices "hit the woods" this morning,
and it is probable that the campaign
will resolve itself into a still hunt for
votes until December IS, when the can
vass of the county will begin. Most
of the candidates seem to be pleased
with the short campaign arranged
Saturday, while few say they would
prefer to have had more time in which
to present their claims in public way
to the voters.
