IN Michigan may be considered fair

WILSON HOLDS LEAD
IN PRESIDENTIAL POLL

q = aN~NNNs--."- -~0~- - ~~-.~f~
Although CoL Roosevelt seems In
the lead In Michigan, the fight IL still
on and by election day the rough
rider may be outdistanced by either
OF the other candidates. All parties
are down to fighting trim and are do
ing everything In their power to cor.
raj the needed plurality, The Re-
publicans are thoroughly scared and
for the first time within the memory
OF the present generation are waging
a hard fight In the upper peninsula.
Heretofore the section above the
straits has been allowed to 20 by de-
fault. II invariably turned out a com
Portable Republican plurality.
That the Republicans are fearful
OF this territory shows their general
alarm. They have cast aside their
lass'tude and, forgetting the tremen.
dous Republican pluralities given
Roosevelt eight years ago and Tart
four years ago. they are aiming TO
edge in a winner by any number.
Meanwhile, the third party l9cSt a
little the best This Is accounted for
on the score OF Roosevelt's great pop
ularity here. the antipathy OF the
agricultural element to Taft becauG
OF his Canadian reciprocity propagan
da, the resultant swing OF this vote
to the colonel. and the desire OF a
part OF the populace for a new deal.
Taft Is expected to gain some dur
ing the remaining days of the cam
paign. Gov. Wilson seems rather
strong in all sections. possibly except
ing the upper peninsula. and his lead
ers claim he Is bound to acquire
backing as time passes. OF course.
the rough-rider's chieftains claim
everything In sight-and with some
basis-but impartial observers say IL
votes 20 to Taft and Wilson they afse
coming from Roosevelt's adherents
who earlier In the campaign had sour
ried from the old camp into the new.
BY simple mathematics either
Roosevelt or Wilcon can be declared
the indicated winner In Michigan
with the straw vote taken by the
Record-Herald sa basis. On the
face Of the returns Roosevelt has an
Indicated plurality OF 21.O56; on the
percentage of change. from party to
party, Wilson would win by 1882.
Up to date the number Of straw votes
Is 3.S99. OF which Roosevelt receives
1889; Wilson, 1899: Taft. LOIS:
Debs. 212, and Chain. Al. About
100 votes divide Roosevelt and Will
son, whereas Wilson. who Is second.
Is only 200 votes ahead Of Taft.

ages OF the watervliet poll by two
methods OF analysis. Roosevelt would
carry the state On percentage Of

the Progressive leader would have an

Wilson second, On basis of face OF
the straw vote returns the rough

While some Republicans admitted
they were voting for the colonel

Furthermore, The talk was that this
sentimental support probably would
be almost cipher by the time cleo

The log cabin Democrat. [volume] (Conway, Ark.) 1901-1982, 1912-12-12

to April 10, 1885, in the two missing
volumes. The Advocate was founded
by Chas. P. Bertrand, and in 1885 AL
bert Pike became associate editor.
There are only two volumes of the
Times, which were published in Lit
tie Rock in 1885 and 1886. Andrew
Jackson Hunt was the first editor of
the Times, Jefferson Smith entering
into partnership with him. John H.
Reed became associate editor at the
death of Hunt.
Richard H. Johnson was the editor
Of the True Democrat, volumes 2, 3, a,
5 and 6, of which are in the collection
loaned the Historical Society by Mrs.
Bell These volumes cover the period
between April 10, 1874 and October
6, 1858.
Mrs. Bell states that the files of the,
Gazette, Times and Advocate were the
property Of Judge Samuel C. Roane,
who died in 1852 and gave the vol
umes to Col. M. l.. Bell. The files of
the True Democrat were owned by
Col. M. L. Bell, nephew and son-in-
law of Judge Roane, and private sec
retay to Governor John Seldom Roane.

ACTING GOVERNOR
BOOSTS HOME COUNTY

Little Rock, Dec. 6.-Acting Cover
nor w. C. Rogers is doing as much to
boost Howard and Pike counties and
all southeast Arkansas, during his va
cation in the governors Office, as he is
in directing the destinies of the great
state. When he is not talking enthus-
iastically with visitors of the Arkan-
sas diamond fields, he is preaching the
value of diversified farming as prac-
ticed in that section of the state, and
winding up with whole lot of praise
for the peach orchards of the Nash
vile vicinity.
According to the acting governor,
the orchards which are looked after
by Bert Johnson, between Highland
and Nashville, netted the owners last
season only 80 per cent on their in
vestment Had it not been that $780,
900 worth of fruit was lost on account
of inability to get pickers, Acting
Governor Rogers states the company
would have made over 100 per cent on
their investment.
In addition to the wonderful profit
on the fruit shipped out, the company
canned over 100000 cans of peaches
which were too ripe to ship. The
profit on this fruit will be enormous
as only the cost of canning can be
considered, as had the fruit not been
canned it would have been an abso-
lutte loss and would have rotted under
the trees.

NEW TREATMENT AT
STATE INSANE ASYLUM
STATE ADDS HYDROTHERAP
DEPARTMENT FOR CURE OF
INSANE PATIENTS.

Little Rock, Dec. 5.-Dr. j. l..
Green, superintendent of the State
Hospital for Nervous Diseases, said
yesterday the new hydrotherapy de-
partment has been completed and will
be put in operation when a trained
man, from Battle Creek, Mich, ar
rives December Is. DR.. Green says
this department is not an experiment,
as it has been tried with good results
in all frst-class asylums.
The fall blowing at the institution
has been completed and next year
there will be about 60 acres in truck
gardens. The stock raising industry
also is growing and there are now 125
thoroughbred Berkshire hogs at the
institution.
1t is believed the asylum has pro-
vided for all the insane in the state,
whose relatives desire to send them to
the institution, and there are 100 va
Icancies.

CONGRESS CLASHES
with PRESIDENT
In RE APPOINTMENTS
ALL POSTOFFICE
APPOINTMENTS TO BE "POCK-
ETED" BY SENATORS.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 6.-Demo-
cratic leaders in the senate apparent
ly gathered strength yesterday to
prevent the confirmation of a majori-
ty of President Taft's recess office ap-
pointments that will be made in the
last three months of his administra-
ton. Practically all of the postoffice
appointments will be "pocketed" by
senators from the interested districts
wherever they might be affected by a
change of administration March a.
Two nominations yesterday were
referred to members of the senate,
who, it is understood ARE likely to
hold them up. The appointment OF
D. o. Newberry as collector Of GUS
toms for the Albemarle district in
North Carolina was referred to Sena-
tor Simmons and that of James j.
Hardin, as collector of the Saluria
district in Texas, to Senator Bank
head of Alabama. Senator Simmons
opposed previous nomination Of
Newberry and Senator Bankhead will
not report the Hardin nomination un
less the Texas senators approve.
Texas appointments are to be left
entirely to Senator Culberson and
Representative Sheppard now sena-
tor-elect, according to statement
made by Senator Bailey. The latter
said he does not intend to take any
part in matters of appointments or
combinations.

SHERIFF Will HUTTON
RAIDS NEGRO SALOON
AS A RESULT TWENTY-SIX
BLACKS ARE CAPTURED SUN
DAY AFTERNOON.

Little Rock, Dec. 9.-Being inform
ed that the law is being violated in
Argenta, and that gambling was al
most openly being conducted there,
Sheriff Will Hutton Sunday gather
ed all of his deputies and proceeded to
the negro saloon at Eighth and Main
streets, where 26 negroes were cap
tured and herded to the county Jail
The negroes were shooting craps in a
frame building adjoining the saloon,
entrance to which was made through
the saloon building.
The matter will probably go before
the grand jury, as charges of selling
liquor on Sunday and gambling
house in connection with the saloon
will result in an effort to revoke the
license of the saloonkeeper. This will
bring out the ownership of the saloon,
which, it is claimed, will show white
people of prominence are the real
owners.
Sheriff Hutton, after making the
raid, stated that gambling must stop
in Argenta the same as in Little
Rock, and he would raid every time
he had any evidence of gaming going
on there.
