JUDGE MOOSE FOR
ATTORNEY GENERAL

Little Rock, July 25.-Judge w. l..
Moose of Morrilton, former circuit
judge of the Fifth judicial district,
and one of the best known lawyers in
Arkansas, will very likely enter the
contest for the Democratic nomination
for attorney general during the next
few days Judge Moose was also pres
ident of the Arkansas state senate
about 10 or II years ago. He made a
memorable race for associate justice
of the supreme court against Justice
e. A. McCulloch seven years ago and
came within two counties of securing
the nomination. Judge Moose is also
a member of the Vanderbilt Universe
ty board of trustees.

RAILROAD LAND
VALUES RAISED

B. F. Stermer, representing the
department of the ST. Louis. Iron
Mountain & Southern railroad, is to-
day having the railroad lands in this
county assessed. The custom of MAX
ing a fat valuation of all the lands in
the county, regardless of location or
value, is being followed again this
year, but the assessment per acre has
been raised this year from $1.75 to
$500 per acre. The railroad company
owns $3.50 acres of land in the coun-
ty, and the increase of 25 cents per
acre will add nearly $4,000 to the to-
tai assessment of their lands.
Assessor w. N. Jones says he con-
siders the valuation of 81 an acre a
fair one on the so per cent basis. None
of the land, it is stated, is improved
and much of it is absolutely worthless,
lying in swamps and on rocky ridges.
While, of course, there is much that
it worth great deal more than the
assessment represents, but the asses
sor believes the average value would
not be more than S4 per acre.

PAYS TRIBUTE TO
ARKANSAS PEACH
COM. SLOAN SUGGESTS SHOULD
BE NAMED FOR WIFE OF
ORIGINATOR.

Little Rock, uiy 25.-A. j. Hill of
Foreman sent to Commissioner Sloan
box of very fine large peaches which
were originated on his farm in Little
River county. 1t had been named the
NJ. P. Hill, and while it resembles the
Elberta, it is much differenten many
respects. 1t differs, also, from the
peach from which the seed was taken.
In 1907, the tree produced eight bush
els, and in 1908 it produced II bush
els. The eight bushels sold for S24.70
and the II bushels for SIT. Commits
sioner Sloan, writing to Mr.. Hill,
said:
81 have not seen a more beautiful
sun-kissed skin on any sample sent
here. 1t is a wonderful peach. When
| look at it, | think we should call it
Arkansas Beauty. When | read that
you raised II bushels of sound, ripe
peaches on one tree, l favor the Ar
kansas Bountiful. When | consider
that the fruit of one tree if sold on the
highest market paid here for peaches
this year, 1915 per bushel, would
have realized out of the one year crop
S63.75, | want to name it the Mort
gage Litter, for few such would GER
tainly pay us all out of debt. Still,
when | am informed that it was
through the thought and thrift and
tender care of your good wife that
such splendid results were attained, |
respectfully submit for your and her
consideration, the name of The Mad
anne Hill. l hope that you will be able
to scatter the scion and seed of this
good tree all over the state"

STATEWIDERS LOSE
in TEXAS BY 5000
"DRY" LEADER ADMITS DE-
FEE EAT QUESTION WILL
AGAIN BE VOTED ON.

Dallas, Tex, July 25.-Returns
from the statewide prohibition cleo
ton thus far received by the News
gives against the amendment 236,66S
and for it 230,631, an anti-prohibition
majority of 6,037.
A mass of reports have been receiv-
ed during the day, but many of these
merely made corrections of former re-
turns.
However, the missing counties and
many of the missing precincts were
accounted for.
The unreported vote is too small to
make it possible for the anti majority
to be overcome. 1t seems that in the
final count it will be something in ex-
cess of 5000.
The following official statement was
given out by Chairman Thomas H.
Ball of the state-widers this morning
"The complete returns will likely
show an anti majority of less thar
5000 votes.
"The law passed by the last legisla-
ture by either side if they are dissat-
isfied with results through alleged
fraud or illegal voting, or Irregular
ties that would change the result.
"Of course | am not in a position to
say whether the prohibitionists will
contest. That will be determined in
caucus by friends.
Il am sure, however, the question
will be taken either into the courts OF
back to the people, as it can be again
submitted. This can be done at reg
ular session of the legislature. 1t APP

bers of Mexicans and negroes and al
element who do not pay their poll tax.
es of the whites have voted on certif
Gates paid for them and that the cleo
ton result has thereby been determin
ed adverse to statewide prohibition.
Local optionists have voted large
majorities for an opening up. The
question of now constitutions SHOULD
be made through patriotism and
thoughtful consideration must be solv-
ed"
Col Jacob VOTERS declined to issue
any lengthy statement. when re-
turns are all in," he said, at will be
found that we have defeated our OPP
ponents by majority of about $500
votes. We have heard from nearly al
counties and the figures stated is oul
final claim pending the official state
ment."

HE FAD $4,000 in CASH IN 1eo3y
NOW WORTH $4,000.

My parents were originally Cana
iians from Essex County, Ontario
was born in Monroe County, Michigan,
from which place moved to Red Lake
Falls, Minnesota, where / farmed for
% years. l sold my farm there in the
summer of 1903 and in September of
that year came to Canada with my
wife and eight children. 1 had about
$500 in cash, team of horses, cow, a
few sheep and some chickens. took
up quarter section Of land near Jack
Fish Lake, Meota P. O., and later on
purchased for 100000 an adjoining
quarter section. 1 have now 4S head
OF cattle, number Of horses, good
buildings and consider my holding is
worth at least 100000. My children
have raised from $500 to $500 worth
of garden truck each year since we
have been here. have never had
poor crop and have never had one
frosted. My wheat has averaged from
25 to 80 bushels per acre with one or
two years considerably more. My
oats have always yielded well up to so
bushels per acre and once or twice as
high as IS. My cattle have never been
stabbed in winter, and do not need it.
l consider that this country offers bet
ter opportunities for settlers than any
where 1 have ever been. I am sure
that almost any person can come here
and buy land at say $500 per acre
and pay for it in one crop. My ex-
perience is that if a man farms his
land in the right way he is not likely
to have his crop frosted,
Most of the settlers in my district
are Americans and Canadians and I
know lots of them who came here with
little or no capital who are now do
ing well, but 1 do not know of any who
have left through disappointment, or
becoming discouraged, have returned
to their former homes.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
Bile can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch as 1t can be applied
