Reported Break With President.

For several days past at Washing
ton there have been rumors of a break
between the President and the Presi-
dent-elect. The Evening Times print
ed story Sunday with the following
resume:
Is President-elect Taft deliberately
unloading all the personnel, appurte-
nances and inheritances of Roosevelt
ism, and getting ready to emancipate
himself entirely from relation or obi
cation to the Roosevelt regime? That
he has such purpose, and that his
pursuit Of it in making his Cabinet has
led to sharp disagreement between him
self and President Roosevelt is cur
rent report in high places. The Presi-
dent-elect's refusal to include in his
Cabinet William Lobe, Jr., is said to
have seriously piquad the President.
with the result that something not far
from proportions of breach between
him and Taft is declared impending.
Mr.. Lobe is under the objection of
having TOO much SAVIOR of ROOseveItism
about him.
Frank H. Hitchcock, likewise tarred
with the Roo sevelt stick, is to be in
the Cabinet, but must not continue as
national chairman, and his position will
be modest minor one rather than that
of the chief adviser to the next presi
dent.
The whole tendency in Cabinet con-
struction, its broadly declared among
people in touch with the great political
ard personal interests involved, is to-
ward minimizing the ROosev welt ideas.
This tendency, it is averred. has
the President quite as much
as has the disregard of his personal
in the matter of Cabinet
position.

HEAVY RAIN
 MUCH DAMAGE
Texarkana Visited by Another Terrific Downpour at Five O'Clock Friday Evening Streets
 Flooded.

Texarkaua, March 20.-What was considered by many to be the hardest rain that has fallen here in months visited Texarkana shortly after 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon, flooding the streets and sewers, sweeping away fences and bridges and doing a great deal of other damage, especially tn suburban sections of the city. No definite estimate of the dam age to the graveled streets of the city could be obtained last even- ing, but it is believed that a great deal of work and money will be necessary to restore some of the thoroughfares to their former condition.
 The rain came from the north west and the heavy black cloud caused numbers of people to think seriously of storm cellars and the Brinkley disaster.

CUT JUGULAR VEIN
Resourceful Wife Used Alum and Cast of Dough and Kept Man From
 Bleeding to Death.

Mammoth Spring, March 2l.- T. E. Applegate, citizen resid- ing about five miles west of this place, stumbled and fell across the blade of his double-bit axe yesterday evenluP, cutting his tbroat and severing the left ex- ternal jugular vein.
 With wonderful presence of mind his wife filled the wound with powdered alum and later with wheat dough, making substitute for a plaster cast over the gash, which firmly held it until physician could be se- cured from the city. Instead ot the physician finding the man dead upon his arrival he was still conscious, and although nearly exhausted from the enormous amount of blood lost in the time required for the physician to ar rive, he withstood the removal of the temporary remedy applied by his wife and the operation of the physician and IS still living.
 pr. Mondy, the attending phy- sician, rode the distance in 40 minutes, although the roads, ow- ing to recent rains, were badly washed and the night was so dark his team could not be seen from the buggy seat. He was twice thrown out and the bugg turned over.

NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE
Mena People Should Learn to Detect the Approach of Kidney
 Disease.

The symptoms If kidney trouble are so unmistakable that they leave no ground for doubt. Sick kidneys excrete thick, cloudy, offensive urine, full Of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by sensation of scald- ing. The back aches constantly, headaches and dizzy spells may occur and the victim is often weig he'd down by feeling of languor and fatigue. Neglect these warnings and there is dam ger of dropsy, Brlghts Disease, or dial betes. Any one of these symptoms is warning enough to begin treating the kidneys at once. Delay often proves fatal.
 You can use DO better remedy than Doan's Kidney Pills. Here's Mena proof:
 Uriel Thacker, grocer, Mens Ark, says: II consider Doan's Kidney Pills a splendid remedy for disorders of the kidneys. 1 sui fered from backache, and was annoyed by the irregular passages of the kidney secretiors.

SUMTER DEFEATED
 OVERWHELMINGLY
Corrupt Politics Receives a Jolt in Ihir- ty third, the Vote Being 2 to l for Williams May Again Go
 to Senate.

Hot Springs, March 2l.- Judge 0. II. Sumpter of Hot Springs was defeated and Hamp Williams, also of Hot Springs, was elected at the special senatorial election held throughout the Thirty-third senatorial district yesterday Williams was elected by at least two and possibly three votes 10 Sumpter's one. The Williams faction claims the election of its candidate by majority ot hve to one. The election, contrary 10 all expectations, passed off quiet ly, and in Hot Springs, where trouble of serious nature ana possibly bloodshed was exPectea' there was not sufficient excite ment or stir to even attract atten- ton to the fact that an election was being held. The vote was unusually light and will run Tar below the usual poll. At the election last fall, when Sumpter and Greaves were candidates TOT senator. nearly 4,000 votes were cast. The total vote cast yester- day ia the six city precincts was ,667.
 The low vote is attributed largely to the fact that tue re- form element controlled the poll ing places in the city and as ta' as could be learned yesterday heio full sway in the m jority ot th' country precincts ot Garland county and the reform forces de mauded the poll tax receipt o every voter. AS the result on' after another was turned ava, and in one or two cases which al tracted especial attention' som of the oldest and most promlnen citizens in the country were turn ed down. The poll tax receip requirement also cut out the ne gro vote, the majority oi wnic went to the support of Sumpte before.

OLD SUBSCRIBERS

fiatly refuse to certify Williams as the seuator-elect is the pre- sumption md understand g among politicians here. The commissioners { Il is afternoon issued a formal announcement to all judges of the election, inform ing them that no poll tax receipt would be required. The an- nouncemeut was disregarded and the Sumpter forces immediately put out sffidavits which were signed by the voters who were not allowed to vote at the polls because they had no poll tax receipts. The affidavits state that they applied to vote and were refused m the grounds that they had no receipt. They also state that the signers would have voted for Judge Sumpter. The affidavits were circulated and signed at different polls. The issuance of the notice by the com missioners, the refusal of the judges to conform to the pro- visions of the notice, aud cir culatinp ot the affidavi's and statements made this afternoon by friends of Snmpter lead to 1 the belief that the commlssi oners will refuse to certify Williams as the nominee.
 Further Trouble Probable.
 If the election commissioners refuse to certify Williams there is a strong possibility of further trouble in Hot Springs and pos sible bloodshel. According to the claims of Mir. Martin and others. members of the reform element practically forced them into carving out their wishes ln the selection of judges; a simiar crowd might demand ot the com missioners that they cetuiy Williams.
 "They threatened tar and feathers, stringing up by a rope rail rides aud everything else the other night and the day follow ing" declared an iraie citizen,
 of Hot Springs, member of lns
 Sumpter faction this afternoon

TO DISCUSS
ONE LIGHT
STREET SIGNS

Tonight in the city council cham
bers one important topic of dis
cussion will likely be that of the
Washington Water Power Co.
versus the Mosso-Berry Co.'s one
light sign. A one light sign that
has been introduced by the Mosso-
Berry Electrical Co. Is meeting
with bitter opposition from the big
power corporation with apparently
an everlasting cinch on the produc-
ton of Spokane's light and power.
With only one light in sign. there
is apparently insufficient money in
1t to satisfy the w. w. p.
1t is understood from fairly good
authority today that the matter will
come up for very earnest discus
sion this evening and that w. w. p
will endeavor to convince the city
fathers that these one light signs
are detrimental to the city. So far
the one light signs have met with
little success, for the Mosso-Berry
Co. claims that the Washington
Water Power Co. is threatening to
refuse making connections Of their
power wires with them.
Only one light Is used in them,
consequently the bill for operating
them can be made but very little.
