BROWN CONTESTS
 THE ELECTION Of Judge Henry w. Wells r Given Certificate in the
 Tenth District.
FILES HIS PROTEST
Alleges Irregularities and Says Per- sOnal Friend of Wells Ruled
 Against Him.

Little Rock, Ark, May 9.-J. c. Brown of Ashley county, who lost the nomination for judge of the Tenth Judicial Circuit, yesterday filed with Bruce T. Bullion, secretary of the Democratic State Central Commit tee, protest against the nomination of Judge H. w. Wells The nomin,ar- ion was given to Wells through a majority of two votes. The protest filed by Brown is very lengthy one, setting out many counts. It will be s1ven hearing before the State Dem- ocratic Convention. Brown claims tlat the returns as they were first made showed him to be nominated with a plurality of 65 votes, but some changing then took place in order to give the nomination to Wells. Brown claims that the Central Committee Of Chicot county did not meet on the Saturday following the primaries, as required by the rules of the Democra- e:c convention, but on the Wednesday following, and at that time the result which originally showed Brown 79 and Wells 3s9, was changed so Wells was credited with 391 votes. This was done, the contestant claims by changing the results in two townships Gaines and Planters, in the last of of which the judges and clerks were rever sworn in and the returns not f led until four days after the primar- ies. Tn Ashley county, the contest ant claims the convention was held on Friday, one day before the Dem- ocratic State convention called for them. He alleges irregularities in the returns in Ashley county, and claims tb.at when the district conven- ton was held in Fordyce, April 15 he was ruled against by Pitt Holmes chairman of the convention. who is a warm personal friend and champion of the contestee.

WOMEN CIRCULATE
 ANTI PETITION Fifth Avenue Residents are Signing Petitions for and Against New District. UP TO CITY COUNCIL Monday Night-Property Owners Who Oppose District Present Fig
 ures From Records.
UP TO CITY COUNCIL

The next meeting of the City Coun- Gil, Monday night, promises to be of unusual interest in view of the fact that the property owners of West Fifth avenue assembled, who recent iy voted to repave that avenue over it's bed of gravel, are to ask that body tn create a new improvement district for the purpose of creating the new district. Opposition developed to the movement at the meeting of the prop erty owners last Friday night and those who oppose the new district are circulating petition, requesting the Council not to create the proposed dis trict.
 It was. staeed yesterday that the committee, to whom was left the mat ter of making the preliminary arrange ments for the formation of the paving district. are making an effort to get County Judge Gould or his successor, c. M. Philpot to donate $1,O0O a block 10 aid in paving that thoroughfare.
 M. A. Austin, one of the strongest 'antis", yesterday secured figures from the county and city records, showing that approximately $13O,017 has been appropriated for the purpose ol building, repairing and improving the streets of the city since about four years from the date of the i'm Irovement made on West Fifth ave- nue, under what is known as Gravel ing District No. 1.
 Practically not a dollar of th,at money except that appropriated by Judge Gould ($2,5O0) has been given the Graveling District He says many of the largest tax payers in this city live on that street and have built magnificent homes along it. He con- tends that they should have and are now demanding their share of the general tax fund, paid in largely by them for the purpose of improving and maintaining it.
 The assessed values of the proper ties are about $3O0,00O and the peti- ton now being circulated against the formation of the district exceeds s15O,O00 say MT. Austin and MT. At kinson, who declare that the petition against the district already represents che half of the valuation of the dis trict, with bright chances for at least two thirds value being represented on it by next Monday.
 Mesdames R. G. Atkinson and Jose lhine Martin have circulated peti. tion among the ladies of West Fiftf
 avenue, opposing the formation o1 any district to include West Fiftf avenue. They report that they have secured the signatures of all the lady :.roperty owners on that street vel visited. leaving only about three more to solicit.

 The entire second floor of the build ing was devoted to the services oi the supper. The space was brilliant ly lighted with three long tables, ex- tending from end to end in the cen ttr, and on one side smaller tables for the speakers and notables Il was arranged by the leaders of the bands of young ladies serving that in addition to the money raising men each young lady should invite a young man to attend. This was done ny a large number and many young men as we'll as the workers of the campaign were present. The young ;nen had been given every other seat around the tables, and after the work cf serving was over the young ladies took seats with the young man they had invited.

SUNDAY EXCISE QUESTION
NOT MAIN ISSUE OF CITY.
Elizabeth Mayor Puts Industrial
Prosperity Ahead of All.

ELIZABETH, Aug 23.-Mayor Mrav-
lag will discuss issues of the coming
municipal campaign at a Republican
mass meeting to be held tomorrow eve
ming. In talking recently the mayor
said that the real issue in this city is
not the arraignment of the Sunday law
or the selection of excise commissions
ers, but the Improvement of Elizabeth
as an Industrial centre.
I'VE should try" he added, ito con-
duct the city economically, and as
Elizabeth Is a suburban city we should
try to make it better place in which
to live.
"It does not make any real differ
ence." continued the mayor, whether
or not saloon door is open for an
hour or two on Sunday as long as the
saloon is conducted properly. The con-
tinual harangue against excise matters
does not tend to help such conditions,
but hinders them"
The mayor said that at Wednesdays
meeting he would state his opinion on
this subject clearly and emphatically
Furthermore, the mayor says that re-
ligious organizations should not inter-
fere too much with the conduct of
municipal affairs. He said: I'VE have
passed the age OF such intolerance.
The Puritans. were they here today,
would be decidedly out of place"

GALL IS LOUD FOR
MAYOR GAYN0R TO
run FOR GOVERNOR
Democratic Leaders See M
Other Name So Strong
in New York.

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Democratic
leaders who arrived in New York yes
terday from Saratoga, where they at
tended a meeting of the party State
committee last Friday. were unani-
mously of the opinion that Mayor Gay
nor would be nominated by reclamation
In the convention in Rochester on Sep
tember e.
The demand for the mayors nomina-
tion overshadowed all considerations, 1t
was stated. 1t is the prediction of the
New York leaders that his name will be
the only one considered and that the
demand upon Mr.. Gaynor will be so in
sistent that he will not be able to re-
fuse, no matter what may be his per-
sonal preferences
Some surprise was expressed by the
Manhattan and Brooklyn men at the
unanimity of sentiment they found for
the mayor in the State committee. They
said that, knowing the New York city
sentiment, they felt when they departed
for Saratoga that perhaps they were too
enthusiastic, and that their judgment
was not correct because they had
watched the mayor from such close
range They We're somewhat surprised.
therefore, when they found that the up
State sentiment for Mr.. Gaynor was
fully as strong as that in their own
delegation.
