JUDGE GOULD IS
 AGAIN HONORED Elected Financial Agent For Plum Bayou Drainage District in This County,
PLANS ARE APPROVED
District to Spend Nearly Million Dollars in Reclai,nin9
 2lO,O00 Acres.

County Judge James Gould the father of the mammoth Plum BayOn Drainage District, the property own CTS of which are now preparing to spend nearly million dollars in re- claiming 210,oo0 acres Of fine farm lands in this county north of the Arkansas river. has been elected fi- nancial agent for the District and VIII render immediate assistance 10 the board of directors in placing the bonds of the district, the sale of which are to be approved by the di- rectors.
 The election of Judge Gould to that important and most responsible posi- ton is a high compliment to him and is q fitting testimonial to his pro gressiNeness and Was probably con ferred because of his continual ac- tivity in behalf of the great drainage movements throughout this county and section generally. It was Judge James Gould who also planned the big Cousart drainage district. in which many thousand acres of cotton and other farm lands have already been reclaimed. His efforts in be half of the drainage projects ill Ark ansas have been characterized by the determination and energy that mark ed his successful career as presi- dent of the Arkansas Good Roads As sociation. Ju6ge Could is close to many of the largest bonding compan- ies in the North and East and the District made a wise move in select ing him as their financial agent. He will doubtless place the bonds with ease.
 The election of Judge Gould was at a recent meeting of the board of directors of the Plum Bayou District, which was attended by Asa Watson, ! S. Barrque, G. E. Lytle, D. C. Walt and l. N. Bonnet, directors; w. F. Coleman, attorney. Jo NichOl treas urer, and w. l. Parkes and J. F. White, engineers. The plans, which have been worked out with much de- tail and care. were presented and gone over thoroughly. They were drawn up. after months of survey ing and engineering work on the part of Major Parkes and Mr White, the engineers of the District, assisted by
 Engineers Morgan and Dabney govern- ment experts who are assisting to m3l.c the drainage work complete success The plans were approved and are highly satisfactory to the di- rectors. Altheimer, Ark. is in the center of the big district.

LI[Y WHITES ARE
 10 REOR CANIzE White Republicans of This County Plan to Overthrow Ferd Havis, Co1ored Boss
ELIMINATE NEGROES
Powell Clayton Tells Them What The! Must Do and The,
 Will Attempt It.

The Lily White Republicans Of Jefferson county are making p,"Data- tiCns to re-organize t&e county or sanitation and if il is effected it vii result in the overthrow of Dr. K. (. Thompson and l'crd lIaNis The lat ter controlled the affairs of the IeI- ferson county central committee for nearly twenty-five years. It is known that d paper is being circulated by Alex Perdue. a white Republican of this city, for :; call meeting of promi- nent white Republicans to ba hold in the near future with this purpose in view and many of the representative white Republicans are signing |. Tn" date cf the meeting has not been given oor, but il will be held probably tilr coming week.
 The object of the Lily Whites is to secure recognition from the State Republican Central Gommittee in the matter ot appointments and especial iy the postolfice plum in this city. It is stated that Powell Clayton the
 Republican boss of Arkansas. told certain Jefferson county Republicans upon their recent visit to Little Rock, when the postofFice contests before the State Central Committee or the executive committee from that body with representative organiZa tion they would most likely receive some consideration at the hands of the party leaders, but as long as Ferd 'Hayis, the colortd Republican boss of this county, was permitted to dominate affairs it would be useless for them to attempt to get into the good graces of the man who Presi- dent Taft listens to.
 If the Jefferson county organization is recognized by the Lily Whites, the negro county Republican central committee will be relegated to the rear It practically means the eli imitation of the negro Republicans county
 On several occasions, when the Pine Bluff p0stofiice plum was in the bal ance. the applicant having the en- dorsement of the Jefferson county or @anizatiQn has been repeatedly turn ed down Dr. R. C. Thompson has bad the endorsement twice without success and Ferd Iavis has had simi- lar experiences. Postmaster F. C. Furth, who was appointed four years ago without the endorsement of the Jefferson county organization and whose excellent record as postmaster will doubtless result in his reappUint- ment within the next few weeks, has never had such endorsement. Fur thermore Postmaster Furth is not committee, nor the state or eXecu- tive committees. Dr. Thompson is chairman of the county committee. composed of twenty-five negroes and himself, and is also mtmber of the state and executive committees. He is an applicant for the Pine Bluff postmastership again and the fact that the fight was referred to the executive committee at recent gather

general impression is that he will be
 nominated today if Judge Gould 's resignation is rendered. Some years ago the late Smith C. Martin was nominated by the central committee for state senator and filled a vacancy
 in this manner. Chairman Joe P, Alexander is chairman of the county committee and F. II. Walker, secre- tary.

SOCIETY LEADER AIDING GIRLS
STRIKE CONDEMNS SOCIAL
lsTs' PART INIT.

New York, Jan. 6.-Miss Anne Nor
gan who attended the Carnegie hall
mass meeting of the striking shirt
waist makers last. night, issued a
| statement today in which she deplored
the advantage taken of the present
situation by certain socialist orators
to stir up discomfort What was
needed, she said, was some sober
thinking, not appeals to sentiment and
passion. Miss Morgan's statement in
full follows:
Il attended the meeting at Carnegie
hall last night. There was no douibt
that some of the girls have been badly
treated by some of the manufacturers.
some of the police and some of the
magistrates. But deplore the fanati-
cal statements of Morris Hflouit.
Leonora O'Reilly and others at such
times as these. Martin Littleton and
Miles M. Dawson were more to the
point. They were sane.
I'm these times of stress such meet
1ngs should be an appeal to reason
and sound judgment 1t is extremely
dangerous to allow these socia1istic
appeals to emoCionaIism. 1t il very
reprehensible for socialists to take ad-
vantage o. these poor girls in these
times, and when the working people
are in such dire traits, to teach their
faRatieal doctrines.
These doctrines are the more dan
gerous because they tend to tear down
all the good as wen as the bad of our
present social state Whatever pro-
tests are made should not be weeping
