TAX COMMISSION DECIDES
The Governor Praises Football Team and Coach for Advertising
 the State.

Those officials and employees of the state who were wise enough to be waiting at the old statehouse when the state treasurers office opened the other morning succeeded in hav- ing their warrants for their Novem. Der salaries cashed at face value. Those who were not so prompt will be forced to wait until the general revenue fund receives another wind fall or discount their warrants at the banks or other places of business that are willing to accept them.
 There was approximately $S,000 in the general revenue fund when the office opened, but 30 minutes later there was not a cent. About $5,00O collected in automobile license fees had already been turned over to the treasurer by Secretary of State Hodges, but this had been held as a separate fund, as there was doubt as to what fund it should be turned into. Assistant Attorney General Rector rendered an opinion holding that this money should go into the general revenue fund, and this was done. Secretary of State Hodges turned in about $670 additional automobile fees, as well as $1 ,235 from franchise taxes and other sources. The attorney gen. eral also turned in about $1,000.

NEW HOLDING PLAN
Governor Explains and Urges That
 Plan Be Adopted.

Governor Donaghey has agreed to use his influence to forward the movement for the holding of cotton and the reduction of the acreage next year, as started by the Farmers Union. The campaign, which has just been 1naugurated, includes new tea- ture. An effort is being made to in- duce men who are able to do so, to buy cotton that is now offered for sale and hold it until the price reaches the level fixed by the Farmers Union. The governor indosed this new idea by pledging himself to buy 50 bales of cotton at once and hold it until the price reaches the point agreed upon.
 Bank pledges are being sent out from the office of the Farmers Union at Rogers, Ark, to every subordinate organization in the South and to prominent men not connected with the Farmers Union. The signers pledge themselves first to hold their cotton; second, to buy and hold cot ton, and third, to reduce their acreage in 1912.
 The governor will send out letters to county officials and commercial or ganizations throughout the state urG- ing that they support this movement. He expects to inaugurate an active campaign in support of the plan.
 T would like to see the entire South, together with the different Chambers of Comerce, Boards of Trade, Cotton Exchanges, etc, put forth concerted action in support of this buying movement. If this is to be effective, it must be done at once, so the bankers, merchants and all leading spirits in the different busi- ness communities, sh6fd fall into line at once
 Every farmer and planter in the South, whether cotton purchaser or not, who can command the price of a bale or more of cotton, should step into the breach at once. The buying of this cotton is of vital interest to all who will be disastrously affected if the crop goes out of the country at the ridiculously low prices that it new sells for.
 'I believe further that this move. ment should be of special interest to all state and county officials, who have the material development of the state and South at heart and all i should give such due attention at once. 1 heartily endorse the move ment and offer my fall support to it's i speedy success. I shall support 1t in every legitimate way and as an evi- dence of my faith in the proposition l shall pledge to buy at once 50 bales of cotton and hold until I can get a price sufficiently remunerative to al low the cotton-holding public as well as the cotton producer, fair compen l sation for their labor"

ASKS JUDGES HELP
Each One Is Urged to Call Meeting
 In His Diatrict.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock-The governor has sent out letters to all circuit judges in the state, asking their cooperation In the holding campaign inaugurated by the Farmers Union. He states that he has been asked by President Barrett and Secretary Davis of the Farmers Union to lend his support to the movement, and that he has readily consented to do so.
 The governor asks that each coun- ty judge assist in calling a mass meeting, to be held at each county seat in his district at the time he holds court there In this way it is hoped to secure the cooperation of all cotton growers in every county in the state.
 The governor enclosed with his let ter blanks furnished him by the off cers of the Farmers Union, pledging the signers to hold certain amount Of their cotton and also to reduce their acreage. The governor also en- dorsed the request of the union that those who can do so purchase few bales of cotton and hold it until the price reaches the desired level.

COMMISSION DECIDES
With One Exception County Assess
 ments Will Not Be Raised.

The state tax commission has de cided that it will not raise the assess ments of any county in the state tbis year, with the exception of Faulkner. Notice had been given that the com mission intended to raise the valua- tions of Howard Benton, Washing ton, Madison and Conway counties, in addition to Faulkner, but after making an investigation the commits sion decided to withhold action this year. Final action has been taken in the case of Faulkner county and that action will stand.
 Members of the commission stated that in all the counties that had been under consideration, with the eXcep- tion of Faulkner county, the board of equalization and assessors had given assurance that the valuations would be raised next year to put them on a par with the other counties of the state and that, while the assessments made this year are below tht aver age, it had been decided that the county boards should be given an- other year in which to bring their valuation up to the standard required by the commission.

ANNIVERSARY UNOBSERVED
Battle of Prairie Grove, in Which 2,5oo Were Killed, Not Commemorated.

Western Newspaper Union News service.
 Fort Smith.-The forty ninth anni- versary of the battle of Prairie Grove, in which over 10000 men partici- pated and in which over 2,500 were killed, passed without observance. The historic battlefield is located near Prairie Grove, in Washington county. The Daughters of the Con- federacy, however, expect to hold monster celebration next year on the fiftieth anniversary. They have bought and practically paid for beautiful tract of ground, which they expect to transform into park. Most of the ground is located on the battle field The daughters intend asking congress for an appropriation to as sist them in their work.
 The battle of Prairie Grove was not decisive victory for either side. The Union troops numbered 16,000 and the Confederate troops 25,000. The official figures of the Union side show loss of 1,251, and on the Con- federate side, 1917. Among the noted generals who participated in the bloody conflict were Hindman, Frost, Shoup, Marmaduke, Roane, Pagan, Parsons, McRae and Blunt.
