Final arrangements for the enter tainment of the biennial convention of the w. o. w. head camp were com pleted at a meeting of the committees at the Woodman hall last night, and Clerk F. M. Morgan stated today that everything was practically in readi- ness for the entertainment of the city's guests. The work of decorating the city will be postponed for day or two on account of M. B.

HENDRIX MAY BE
 STATE CHAMPIONS

The basketball championship of Ar kansas, according to information re- ceived in Conway, now lies between Hendrix of this city and Arkansas Conference college of Siloam Springs. As result of negotiations between the representatives of the two schools the games will be played in Conway, and will probably take place Friday or Saturday. Local enthusiasm is running high, as Hendrix has a strong team and Coach Staples be-
 ieves they have an excellent chance to win the championship laurels from the Sloan Springs boys. However. the games will be hard fought bat ties, and each team will put up prob ably their best games this season when they meet to decide who shall hold the championship.

REFUSES DEMAND
 10 ARREST HARRIS
SLAYIR NEARS DEATH
SHERIFF JOHNSON WILL AL LOW HENRY HARRIS TO
 DIE AT HOME.

Easing his action on the opinion of physician who states that Henry Harris cannot live but a short time and could scarcely survive a trip to Conway, Sheriff J. S. Johnson has again declined to arrest Harris, this time refusing the demand of Bay White, son of R. E. White, whom Har- ris is alleged to have assassinated.
 According to Sheriff Johnson, White, who has been in the county on visit from his present home in Ten nessee, called him up and requested him to arrest Harris, who he claimed was not as seriously ill as had been represented. Sheriff Johnson at once sent Deputy c. o. Payne to Mt. Yer non, where Harris is staying at his mothers home Mr. Payne reported that he found Harris condition even worse than it was when he had pre- viously declined to bring him to jail at Conway. He called in Dr. T. c. Watson, who examined Harris and made written report of his condi- ton, as follows:
 Sheriff J. s. Johnson-At the re- quest of your deputy, Mr, Payne, I am telling you of the condition of Henry Harris, for whom you have a warrant. l was called to see him about month ago, and when l saw him then I hardly expected him to be alive this long. Knowing him to be in the last stages of tuberculosis, have been slow to express an opin- ion as to how long he will live I'll say this in regard to his condition, he is living skeleton. The calf of his leg is no larger than my wrist and he cannot eat scarcely anything at all, and 1 think he cannot possibly last very long at most, and 1 have the gravest doubts if he could make the trip to Conway and live over it, and 1 would suggest that you let him stay at home until he dies, or at any rate, until there is some change in him. think he will be in no danger of get ting away from where he is if you should need him.
 Hoping this letter will throw some light on the Harris case, I am your friend.

GOOD PROGRESS
 ON WATERWORKS

Contractor Joseph McCoppen is making good progress on the con struction of the Conway waterworks system during the past week, al- though he has been hindered by unfa- vorable weather. The excavation and foundation work for the pump house at Gleason. is now about finished and nearly one-half mile of the mains be- tween that point and the reservoir has been laid.
 MT. McCoppen has sub-contracted the excavation of the reservoir on top of the hill on the Lude Madden place, two miles east of Gleason, to Joe Rosa of Conway, who will begin work at once. The reservoir is to be 50 by 85 feet at the top, 15 feet deep and tapering to 8 feet wide at the bot tom The excavation amounts to about 300 cubic yards and the capa- city of the reservoir will be nearly 300,000 gallons.
 Mr. McCoppen says he intends to push the work to an early completion and he thinks he will have the water | flowing in the mains inside of the city l by June l. A ditching machine will be brought from Morrilton to cut the trenches for all the mains in the city

Everett, Wash, confined in the coun.
ty Jail pending acceptance commit
ment to the hospit tai for the insane at

POLITICAL CHATTER

There has been good deal of politi-
cal chatter over the state in regard to
a third candidate for United States
senator, all based on the proposition
that the straightout LaFollette backing
was not salts fed with the position OF
Thomas Sterling. who had refrained
from taking decided position on the
presidential situation. But the latest
rumor coming along progressive lines
is to the effect that within the next
week Mr. Sterling will declare him self
openly for LaFollette, and with that
declaration the search for another can
didate will cease so far as the ultra
progressive forces of the state are con-
cerned, and unless some new factor
comes into the campaign, will mean a
straight fight between Sterling anc

DRY THOSE TEARS

Aberdeen American: When the
state found that it would have to
raise l,500 by public subscription to
be represented upon the famous gov
ernors' special train to go through
the east, Aberdeen was called upon
for one-third of the required amount.
immigration Commissioner Deets
came up for the money yesterday and
he got it. There is a moral in this
incident that when he came to Aber-
deem he got the money.
Other cities in the state who have
been deploring the sad fate of Aber-
deem, sorry for it because of bad
crops and other catastrophes may
now take heart and dry their tears of
pity. Let them take note of this that
when the state needed money for a
public enterprise it came to Aber-
deen for one-third of all that was eX.
pected from the whole state and got
the meney.
If any other city gives as much as
800 The American would be glad tC
chronicle the news.

f. f. Brinker, commissioner of
school and public lands, returned to
Pierre on Friday from tie western
part of the state, where he has set
tied all points of difference with the
government forest service regarding
the payment by the government in
lieu lands for school land located
within the reserve. Instead of sec
t1ons 16 and 36 in each township as at
present, the state will be given a
block of land of equal size in the
eastern hills, south of Harvey peak
and east of Custer. Mr.. Brinker says
that it will include some of the finest
timber in the entire reserve. The
state will maintain its own forester,
for which the last legislature pro-
vided, who will work in conjunction
with the federal service only in re-
gard to fires.

Mr.. RICHARDS TO TALK

r. O. Richards of Huron is likely
to draw a large audience when he
speaks in Pierre on Tuesday evening.
November 81. The meeting will be
held at the Grand. ~ ..
Following Senator Crawford's g at
tack upon Mr.. Richards,and his pro-
posed new primary law, at Miller,
Mr.. Richards issued challenge to
the senator to meet him in joint de-
bate on the subject in the principal
cities of the state, but it is under
stood that Senator Crawford declin-
ed alleging pressing business in Wash
ington.
Mr.. Richards will appear, however.
on the dates specified.
The subject is of general interest,
as the people will vote next fail to
accept or reject the measure. Last
winter the state senate passed the
bill, and it came near passing the
house, but the legislature finally de-
cided to submit it to popular vote.
If majority Of the people,vote yes
on the bill next November, it will be-
come a law, replacing the present
primary law by a practically new and
novel primary system, while if they
vote mo" the bill will falls
AS the law is lengthy.ands will not
be published in the newspapers, plat

CRIME is INCREASING.

Itwas an appalling fact drawn out
before the National Prison Congress,
that,more murderers are committed in
the United States than elsewhere, and
so many more as to make comparison
almost out of the question Is life
valued more highly in England than in
America? Is crime regarded more
lightly in America than in England?
Evidently we not only exagerate the
technique of the law, but we are toe
free with our paroles and pardons, and
too generous with the benefit of doubt
to Williams caught redhanded. 1t will
never quite do to let the law lose all
it's terrrors for the evil-doer and hold
forth no incentive for the good citizen
to stick to the path of rectitude and
righteousness.
