 dates for All Positions.

Little Rock, April 1S.-Prohi- bitinnists held their state conven- ton here today with c. Il. kim- ball of Little Rock, chairman aud John NJ. Parker of Dardanelle, secretary. They adopted stren- uous platform and appointed committee to raise $5, 900 for the campaign to put representatives in the field in every section of the state, also to nominate full ticket for the state offices.
 John NJ. Parker was named as national deegate to succeed Hen ry H. Alton ot Beebee.
 The platform adopted classed the liquor traffic not as business but as a crime, and that the gov- ernment has no right to liceuse crime. The platform demands 3 repeal of the heiu,ernationai revenue system and submitting to the peo- pie the right to manufacture sell or import liquor as beverage. It was declared that the time had arrived for the states to exert their right to demand protection from national laws whereby they can control the interstate liquor traffic. The platform tavors max ing corporations liable for acci- dents occurring at their plants, abolishing child labor, favors in- beritauce tax. favors permanent tariff commission with non'parti- san experts to advise congress and favors expenditures wisely upon highwa aud waterways.
 The platform further censures congress for permitting a fourth of the people who hold franchise Ito vote away the rights of three fourths who are denied the rignt to vote. The party stands iol any law which will vote saloons out of a community where they now. are and against any law which will permit them to oe w,ted into dry territory.
