WORST SNOW STORM
 IN TWENTY YEARS
For Sixteen Hours the Flakes Fell Thick and Fast, and an Average of Seven h. cheses is Recorded

What has been the worst snow storm that has visited this sec tion in twenty years broke this morning about seven o'clock, af- ter raging for Is hours, and the ground was covered to a depth ranging from inches to two feet, where it had drifted. Much of the snow which fell in the ear- ly afternoon yesterday melted as it struck the ground, other wise a foot deep on an average would have been the measure ment today.
 On account of the weather con- ditions business is at standstill, the public schools were forced to close until Monday, the rural mail carriers were unable to go out on their routes, and all the mills are shut down.
 Stock is suffering from expos ure and everybody is greatly in convenienced.
 The temperature during the night fell to Is degrees.

 It is unnecessary for us to dwell. at any great length on the record of Mr. Hood in his official capacity. He is we'll known by everybody, and no more popular man lives in our county
 As an officer, he is brave and considerate. As a man, he is courteous and kind. Accommo- dating to the full limit of his ability and privilege, he makes friends and holds them.
 That he will receive a large vote at the polls is certain, as he has host of staunch friends and supporters who will labor ln- ceasingly for his success. Don't fail to consider Mir. Hood s claims at the primary.

There are abont 50 appli- cants for the appointments now in the city, and the balance will be in during the day, ready to take their chances before the committee when it meets tomor- row. The postmasters will meet today and select rules which will govern the contests between them. The big meeting begins tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock in the Lincoln club rooms. The rooms are so small it is probable the com mittee will go immediate ly into executive session and send for each candidate as he is needed.

POWELL CLAYTON
 HAS ARRIVED
The State. Republican Boss Comes to Little Rock to Be Ready for the Big De- ings Tomorrow

Little Rock, Jan. 6.-Gen. Powell Clayton yesterday arriv- ed from Washington and ever since he reached the city has been beseiged by dozen ol appli- cants for postal appointments who seem to think he has the dispensation of the pie.
 Gen. Clayton is one Of the most cautious men in national politics, and before he will allow an inter- view given by him to be printed, he has to inspect the copy after it has been written. He then crosses out line after line until all is left is an expression of high regard for the president, and the statement that the presi- dent can always be counted on to do the right thing as he sees it.
 Gen. Clayton gave out one of the same old interviews soon after his arrival, and as usual, failed to state anything which would cast a light upon any fav- ored postoffice aspirant, where there was opposition. He like wise denied that he has pow CT more than any good strong man on the committee, and inti- mated he did not like the way he had been termed the Republican political boss of Arkansas.
 Gen. Clayton came day ahead in order to meet with other members of the committee, and yesterday afternoon held quite

OF outrages were being committed In

local courts were ineffective 1t required
a greater outside force to put an end to
these practices.
