This would probably mean the election of Logan, but for the dark horse prop osition, and a new member of the sen- ate here yesterday stated the dark horse could be depended on. In the house the principal candidates are R. r. Milwee, of Clarendon, Clyde Going, Of Jonesboro, and Representative Lit tie, of Osceola. Abner Hurst, of Fay eteville; Jeff Parker, of Stephens, and w. A. Black, of Fort Smith, are al so avowed candidates. It is by no means certain that R. F. Milwee will make the race on account of this being his first term in the house and his having much other work to be done
 As Representative Little was one of the prohibition leaders last year and submitted to the house liquor bill, it is probable that he will have the support of all the prohibitionists, and if he does that will insure his election,
 as the house is always in favor of prohibition. Should Judge Milwee decide not to make the race the con- test is expected to narrow down to a fight for blood between Little and Co., ing
