 I hereby announce myself as a can didate for Railroad Commissioner, Southern District, subject to the ac- ton of the Democratic primaries of March 30, 1910.
 For four years past I have been Secretary of the Pine Bluff Board of Trade, and have been more or less in- timately connected with many efforts to promote the prosperity of the whole state, especially along economic and traffic lines.

 If elected, my motto will be: "A square deal for all"
