Election

jim Oliphant, democratic nom-
inee for representative in Fulton
county. was defeated by Dunk
Brown, a republican. Oliphant
made a canvass Of the county,
while Brown stayed at home.
In Independence county the
vote on road tax stood 2576 for
the tax and only 433 against.
There's q reason.
Randolph county elected two
republican officials. Joseph Huff
stedler was elected county judge
by "a votes and Fl. Hollowel was
elected assessor by AZ. The
democrats Of Randolph county
held no primary election and in
the general election had five can
didates for county judge and five
for assessor, with the result that
two republicans were successful
1t is safe to say that the Ran
dolph democrats will hold a pri-
mary in 1912.
The republican candidates for
representative, county judge and
sheriff were beaten in lndepend-
ence county by handsome ma
iorities. Rev. !. l.. Brown, in
dependent candidate for repre-
sentative, was badly defeated,
independence voted largely for
both amendments and gave a
good majority against license.
jackson county went against
whiskey license by a majority Of
300 and gave majority for both
amendments, The election COM
missioners in Jackson failed to
have for and against road tax
printed on the bollots and the
tax proposition was not voted
upon. 1t is declared by author
tiles that the county will have to
do without the road taA Swo
years as the Quorum Court will
have no authority TO levy the
tax.
Stone county voted against
Sharp County record., 1910-09-23

wNSkay license and against
roaF tax, for amendment No. 1C
ali% against No. II.
TfT lizard county both the pro-
potad amendments were voted
dqs@, as was whiskey license,
glj.t5e the road tax carried. There
w.LFbe ono republican official in
IzaI during the next two years,
?. n. Sheriff., republican, de-
feaad VIM. Halbrook, the demo
oraNc nominee for county judge.
Tie democrats Of Lawrence
cotIgty elected their full ticket
wi;Sout trouble, That county
voG.d for amendment No 10 and
ag&ylst No II, The majority
aga nst license was heavy, while
the Dad tax carried by 1000 ma"
jorig
Both the amendments received
heavy majorilies in Baxter coun-
ty. License lost in that county
and road tax won.
There was a strong fight made
to vote whiskey back into Craig
head county again and the effort
failed by the narrowest margin.
License was defeated by only Al
votes. Another close race on the
hcepao question was recorded in
Miller county, which went "dry"
by 81 votes. TeXarkana, the
coudty seat Of Miller, went "dry'
by 16 votes.
The city of Little Rock and
Pulaski county returned major
tiles for both amendments, A
strong effort was made to put
liquor out of Little Rock, but the
anti.prohibitionists won by L ma
joric, Of several hundred.
Wn. Darlen, democratic nom

conduct and the majority return

when good many men sell ou'

1t will always be thus no doubt

the money and energy expended
by the people of any section in

Amendment No. 10 to the stat

Amendment No, 10 to the state
constitution, providing for the
initiative and referendum, car
ried in a walk. This is a radical
change in state government,
more radical than u great many
people who have given the sub
ject but little consideration are
thinking about. We cannot help
but believe that the amendment
as adopted in this state is imper'
feet in some important respects,
but doubtless these defects will
be remedied later on if, when the
initiative and referendum is put
into operation, they are found
really to exist. The principles
of the initiative and referendum
are becoming more popular ev-
cry day as the need Of more
direct rule by the people is seen
more aud mere,

Don't let the thought get away
from you that this county must
have road commissioner il we
expect to get the amount Of ben.
eft from the road tax that the
public is entitled to. The propo-
sition Of electing a commissioner
will come squarely to an issue
before very long, and those who
really want to see better road
work in this county should exert
themselves for the election Of q
commissioner.
