SPEAKERS RACE
NOW BETWEEN TWO

Little Rock, Dec. 5.--As the time
before the next meeting of the Arkan-
sas general assembly grows shorter,
the race for speaker of the house is
simplifying itself, and the list Of can
didates has narrowed to two men-Joe
Hardage of Arkadelphia and Carroll
Armstrong of Morrilton, with S. A.
Miller of Pine Bluff a dark horse in
the running.
o. c. Ludwig, former secretary of
state and one of the representatives
from Pulaski county, who was looked
upon as an administration candidate
for the position, has announced his
withdrawal Carroll Armstrong is
now expected to get the support of the
incoming administration. Ludwig has
been making an active canvass for the
office, and stated short time ago he
had pledges from enough members to
insure his election. When Col. Arm
strong was announced as a candidate
he decided to withdraw, rather than
split the administration forces.

STATE UNIVERSITY
NEEDS MORE LAND
FOR EXPERIMENTAL WORK
PRESENT GROUNDS WHOLLY
INADEQUATE FOR AGRICUL-
TURAL DEPARTMENT.

Little Rock, Dec. Elm checking up
the different departments of the Uni
versity of Arkansas, getting ready to,
ask the legislature to provide for the
needs of the various ones, Prof. Rey-
mods finds the agricultural depart
ment is one of the most neglected OF
the institution. Arkansas has no land
upon which to conduct experiments in
farming, and President Reynolds will
deal with this in his annual report,
asking that the idea of renting for an
experiment station be done away with
and land adjacent to the university be
purchased Rent is so often increas-
ed that it soon becomes prohibitive
and the farm must be moved, thus los
ing the valuable experiments which
have been projected involving several
years.
"The land now in our possession is
wholly Inadequate" says Dean C. F.
Adams of this department, "and it
seems incredible that Arkansas should
permit it's college of agriculture to
maintain Institutional and research
work on such small farm. The four
state agricultural schools have four
times as much land as we, and the
state colleges of other southern states
have 10 times the amount. All these
states and institutions know the foun-
dalton of a college of agriculture is "a
good farm"

BOLD BANDITS
HOLD UP TRAIN
IRON MOUNTAIN FREIGHT
BANDITS AT MALVERN COMPEL
PASSENGERS TO JUMP
FROM TRAIN.

Malvern, Dec. 7.-Passengers on the
southbound Iron Mountain freight
train No. 90, in charge of Conductor
f. Ogden, were held up at the point of
pistols and robbed by two young ban
dts between Traskwood and this city
last night Robert Younger of Deni-
son, Tex, was probably fatally
wounded. He received three shots, one
of the balls passing through the left
thigh, one grazing the scalp and one
entering the chest.
All the passengers were forced to
jump from the moving train after be-
ing relieved of their valuables. Joe
Willis, % years old, who claims Fort
Smith, as his home, was arrested by
Sheriff Worley of this county, near
the scene of the hold-up, charged with
the crime, and was identified as being
one of the bandits at the examining
trial held here yesterday before JUS
tice Noble.
1t is not believed the robbers secur-
ed booty to any considerable value.

IN MEMORIAM.

In memory of little Edna Mae, the
4-year-old child of Mr. and Mrs. Les
ter Hatfield, who died at their home
near Mt. Vernon November IS, 1912.
Little Edna Mae was a sweet-spirited
child who seemed to love everyone
she met and will be missed SO much
in that home The patter of those
tiny feet and the little pratling ton
que that made glad the hearts of the
inmates Of that home. 1t is sad to
know we will hear them no more on
earth. But may the grief stricken
parents and near relatives who were
so devoted to her take comfort from
the words of Jesus, who said, Suffer
little children to come unto me, and
forbid them not, for such is the king
dom of God" Then little Edna Mae
is with Jesus and we will meet her
up yonder. The funeral services were
conducted by Rev. E. T. Herring, and
the little one was laid to rest in the
Mt. Vernon cemetery until Jesus
comes to make up his jewels.

TO OFFER NO
TARIFF REFORM

Washington, d. c., Dec. 7.-Presi-
dent Taft will make no further effort
to have congress reduce the tariff. In
a general message to congress sub
mitted yesterday, the president clear
ly indicated his intention of leaving
further tariff revision to Mr.. Wilson
and the congress just elected.
"Now that a new congress has been
elected on a platform of tariff for
revenue only rather than a protective
tariff, and is to revise the tariff on
that basis" said the president, at is
needless for me to occupy the time of
congress with arguments or recon-
mendations in favor of protective
tariff"
This message, the second submitted
by the president since the present ses-
sion tegan, will be his last of a gen.
eral character. 1t dealt with every
department of the government except
the state department., recommended
much of the legislation which Mr.
Taft previously had urged upon the
attention of congress and took up and
discussed at length several subjects
comparatively new.
Mr.. Taft came out strongly against
independence for the Philippines, pro
posed, he said, in a till now before
congress. He deprecated the new pol
icy of one batt'e ship year instead of
two and ndorsed against the scheme
of currency reform proposed by the
Nationa, Monetary Commission.

SECONDARY SCHOOLS
ARE DRAWING CARD
SAYS DIR. II. S. HARTZOG, FORM
Err PRESIDENT OF STATE
UNIVERSITY.

Little Rock, Dec. 9.-The greatest
advertising feature Arkansas has to-
day and the chief attraction to people
moving out of the older states, accord
ing to DR.. Henry S. Hartzog, is the
imp made in the secondary
schools of the state. DR.. HartZog was
formerly president of the University
of arkansas, also of Ouachita College,
and is now representing the Charles
Merrill Publishing Company, with
headquarters in st. Louis.
Missouri lost many people in the
pas decade" says DR.. Hartzog, "and
many of these came to Arkansas be-
eau the country schools are progress
sive and well equipped. The farmers
are .uovlng away from the older
states, selling Their land for high
pr es and going to states where land
is cheap. They select the states which
are ing tie most progress in edu-
cat onal matters, and Arkansas stands
without peer in advancement of this
nature, and the whole world is begin
nirg to recognize It.

London wasn't much of a
town in the time of Henry VIII,
back in the sixteenth century.
When the king gave his courier,
Richard Page, a slice of land he
had taken from one of the abbeys,
nobody thought it much of a gift.
1t made nice little COW pasture,
but that was about all it was good
for. Even as late as 1926 it was
valued at only $4,000.
King Henry has long since
turned to dust, likewise Richard
Page. But millions have been
born. They swarm daily over
that old COW pasture. They have
reared great buildings. on it.

one has been arrested for the dis
tufbance yesterday that resulted

workers from the.Lancaster mill,

Indignation meetingswere held
to protest against what was term
ed the hasty and unwarranted &C
ton of the police. Speakers point
ed out that if there was disturb
ance enough to force the police to
use their revolvers some of the
strikers would have been ar
rested.
Several volleys were fired. Feel
ing is high today, though there
were nooutbreaks near the mills.
There was some jostling this
morning when police escorted
