Daily Reports to be Discontinued

Local Forcaster William A Shaw, of
Northtield, says that he has just received
an order from the department at Wash
ington that the daily weather bureau
would be discontinued March 81. The
reason for the discontnuance of the SER
vice Mr.. Shaw did not know, but thought
that it was in conformity with a policy
of the department to cut expenses in the
mailing of reports and maps. The maps
will now come from either the Burling-
ton Office or from Boston as both of these
places receive the Washington forecast
that the Mortified bureau closes out.

EoR NATIONAL PRIMARY

DIES MONIES, Ia., Aug. S0.-As- serting as a reason the fact that the nominations for president and vice president may be and actually have been determined by the vote of del egates from states which cast practl- cally no vote for the party ticket and never elected the party electoral ticket, Senator Albert M. Cummins today declared his intention of in- troducing in the senate a bill provid- ing for the enactment of a nation wide primary law.
 Senator Cummins points to the diff ficulty of making any change in the method of procedure in national con- ventions relative to the basis of the representation, and declares that if congress does not act within a reasonable time upon his national primary bill. he will propose a law regulating national party conventions making the basis of representation the party vote instead of population.
 At the recent republican conven- ton a plank was adopted Tn favor of a national primary law. and the re- publicans of the state are committed to it.

". 0. ". CONVENTION
 COMES NEXT MARCH

The biennial convention of the Ark ansas Woodmen of the World will be held in Conway during the second week in March, 1911. This conven- tion is one of the most largely attend ed of any held in the state, the at tendance being from 800 to 1000 del egates. An impression exists here that the convention meets here this year, but this is incorrect, as the ses- sions are held only every two years. The last convention was held at Fort Smith. On March II, 1909, the con- vention, by an overwhelming majori- ty, selected Conway as the place for it's next convention.
 Conway, however, will be the host of another big gathering this year, when the Hendrix "home-comng' will be held during the commencement of that institution, June l2-15. M. K. Dunaway of Little Rock, A. c. Cur tis of Lonoke and Rev. J. D. Ham, mons of Pine Bluff were appointed a committee at the alumni meeting last commencement to arrange for the the homecoming and they are mak- ing a vigorous campaign among the 2,000 former students of Hendrix to have as many of them as possible here during the next commencement. From responses they have received they estimate that probably LOGO vis- itors will attend the exercises.
