CHARGED WITH MURDER
Yrs. A. l.. James Accused of Kill- ing Husband Who Was Sup-
 posed to Have Drowned

Mrs. A. L. James, widow of Jor- dan James, who was supposed to have been drowned last summer, was arrested Saturday by Sheriff W. A. Fike, on a charge of mur- der in the first degree.
 The indictment was returned by the recent grand jury, it being alleged that Mrs. James killed her husband.
 On the morning of July 2, Jor- dan James, a pioneer citizen and wealthy planter, was found dead at Spring creek, which runs in front of the James mill, six miles northwest of Batesville. As the old man was feeble, 1t was gener- ally supposed at that time that he had fallen face downward into the water as he leaned over to get a drink. It was his custom to walk to the creek every morning. No investigation was made at the time, and apparently none of the friends of the family thought any, thing wrong since then until Mrs. James was arrested, charged with murdering the old gentleman.
 Application was made before Judge Jeffery for bail upon writ of habeas corpus, which was grant ed, the bail being fixed at $2,OOO. A qualified bond for that amount was immediately filed and Mrs. James was released from custody.

CALDWELL. ANNOUNCES

The announcement of J. J. Cald- well, of White River township, as a candidate for circuit clerk, ap- pears in the proper column of to- days paper. There are no better citizens in the county than Joe Caldwell. He was born and raised in the county, educated in the schools of the county, and is strictly a homemade citizen, of that type who stands for the best in all things.
 MT. Caldwell served the county for four years as tax assessor, pre- ceding the present incumbent. He made the county an excellent of ficial, his record being one of the best in the history of the county. He is we'll qualified for the position he seeks, and his former record is sufficient assurance that if the people elect him the duties of the circuit clerks office will be well taken care of.

Governor Donaghey is accused of being a tax-dodger, and he retorts that he is the only candidate who favors the enactment ot a law that will make tax-dodging impossible. Even Norwood and Robinson, who are fighting the proposed revenue law upon which Governor Dona- ghey has staked his future politi- cal prestige, admit that the pres ent revenue system is not what 1t should be. Whether the Turner Jacobson bill is the remedy is a question for each voter to deter mine for himself.

POLITICIANS LINING UP
Statewide Prohibition Main is- sue to be Decided in the
 Approaching Fight

The first prospect of a joint campaign in state politics comes in the senatorial race. Senator Jeff Davis challenges his opponent, Hon. s. Brundidge, to a wordy combat. He considers that four speeches are enough, two to be se- lected by himself and two by MT. Brundidge. The senator names as his two places Beebe, December 2, and Morrilton, December 4, and says that he will meet MT. Brun- didge at any other two points in the state he may select.
 After we shall have made these four speeches" says Senator Da- wis, q think it best for the Demo- cratic party and our friends gen. orally that there be no further joint campaign. have determin- ed to have no more campaigns of the character that my third race for governor resulted in. That was simply campaign of personal abuse and personal issues
 When a state has so long been accustomed to campaigns of per sonal abuse and personal issues" !" the people will find it difficult to assimilate readily the mildness of this challenge to political combat.
 In the gubernatorial contest there continues no prospect of a joint campaign, as Governor Don- aghey appears to prefer playing a lone hand, and while Norwood and Robinson are willing, they consider that it should be a three handed affair. So each of the three continues on his way alone.
 AS indicated last week, the pro- hibition issue Is looming para mount and has already eclipsed that of the revenue bill. It ap- peals more strongly to more peo- pie, and there is rapidly coming about a lineup on this question. With Governor Donaghey stand ing for submission, Norwood for statutory statewide prohibition, and Robinson for local option, it should be no trouble for anyone to decide upon which of the gu- bernatorial candidates to support.
 Those who have been watching the trend of events cannot but be impressed with the fact that there is a growing sentiment against the personal or mud-slinging cam paign, of which the disclaimer of Senator Davis is one of the most significant indications. But there is quite good deal of it in the

he has only to erect sheds on either slue Oh the
main structure to be enabled to increase lhe
capacity of the structure to Is head OF stock or
more.
For the sum Of $3.50 it is figured that a farmer
can erect barn 37x34 feet in size with height OF
IL feet at the and about 80 feet at the peak
The first floor plan of such barn provides for tour
horse stalls and three double COW stalls, while a
shed with side open and intended to open into a
small yard affords additional room for stock. "A
clear space II by 81 feet is left down through the
center and will accommodate several vehicles and
implements as we'll as leaving room for a consider
able amount Of forage at the rear end. The loft
will accommodate from 20 to 25 tons of hay and
there granary about by eight feet in size.
When the intention IS to feed cattle or sheep it is
recommended that the entire left side of the barn
be left unsided afording shed 81 by IL feet with
feed racks along the inner side, which may be con-
veniently filled from the center space or from the

TO make him beautiful before hurrying
on to the metropolis.
1t was five years ago that Scotty of
Death Valley sprouted into notoriety
by rushing across the continent in a
special train to spend a fortune of
100000 in New York. This money
he had dug from some mines that
yields to him alone, for no one else
has ever been able to find it. He
was allowed to buy more champagne
and Holsters for chorus girls than any
man who had been playing spendthrift
in the big city in many years. When
his money didn't go fast enough in
corks and glasses he began throwing
it around in the street.
New Yorks Tenderloin never knew
such a gay two weeks as Scotty gave
It. Then he suddenly blew up. He
went broke so fatty that he had to
borrow the money to get out west
again and he had to borrow mining
tools at Goldfeld to work his secret
claim in Death Valley. Six months
ago in Reno Scotty turned up without
a sou. His friends shook their heads
then and said that his wonderful
mine had failed. But with another
fortune and. a special train-and New
York waiting-it looks as though
there might soon be another gorgeous
outpouring of the miners gold on the
Tenderloin.

DEATH VALLEY MAN
HAS ANOTHER WAD
SPENDTHRlFT MINER STARTS
AGAIN TO CONQUER
NEW YORK.
HAS A POCKET FULL OF COIN
Arranges for a Special Train From
Reno and Promises to StartIe the
Metropolis, Where He Is Awaited
With Open Arms.

New York.-Scotty is in the lime
light again. The famous Death Val
ley miner who astounded the country
some years ago by his spectacular
manner of travel, has reappeared after
"a long period of quiet and announced
that he has recovered his fortune. The
original story was that Scotty got rich
mining and spent his money on spe-
cial trains and other luxuries merely
for the joy of spending it; but there
was always suspicion in New York
that Scottys exploits were intended
to precede the selling of stock or other
business enterprises. Scotty disap-
peared as quickly as he had appeared
and nothing was heard of him for
long time. Now he has turned up with
another fortune, and very probably
with the same ambition to shine in the
public eye.
That portion of the effete east which
gives up its time to taking people in
is at tiptoe over the news. Word
comes from Goldfeld, New, that Scot
ty has appeared there with $11 200 in
his trousers pockets and has an
nounced that his mine over in the Sc.
cret recesses of the Death Valley has
given up another fortune in gold. He
wouldn't tell where the mine is To-
Gated, but he went to the Godlfield
railroad station, and, said he:
I'm Scotty of Death Valley. I've
got $1,000 in my kicks and more
where l can reach it and | want to
hire a special train to go to New
York next week. How muchll she
cost?"
Scotty was told that the price
would be about $4,000. He paid for the
train then and there and is only await
ing the efforts of the Goldfield tailors
