agricultural department has been COM
pleted by Commissioner Sloan and
Deputy Commissioner Hutchins. It
was examined by Secretary C. C. Kill
patrick, who called at the bureau. and
was pronounced by him one of the
most comprehensive and most COM
plete expositions of states resources
and advantages he has ever seen.
Secretary Fitzpatrick suggested that
it should be taken up by the chamber
of commerce and boards of trade
throughout the state and used by
them for general distribution. The
Little Rock Chamber of Commerce
will probably take one thousand of
them. The state will have only lin
tied number printed, but others may
secure any number they want for dis
tribution by making arrangements
with the printer. 1t is expected they
will cost about $3.50 per 100. 1t will
be a very attractive, cloth bound vol
ume.

even holiday hours will be observed
for opening the windows. No incom-
ing mail will be handled at all until 5

less their correspondents have the
foresight to attach a special delivery

Mr. Garfeld's letter and Postmaster
Ovens order appear below:
Washington, Aug. "a, 1912.
Postmaster, Conway, Ark.
Sir-The postoffice appropriation
act for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1913, provides:
That hereafter postolfiees Of the
first and second classes shall not be
open on Sundays for the purpose of
delivering mail to the general public,
but this provision shall not prevent
the prompt delivery of special deliv-
cry mail"
Under this law you will close the
general delivery, carriers windows,
and lock boxes and. discontinue all de-
liverics by carriers on Sunday. You
viii note, however, that special deliv-
cry mail is excepted and you will
therefore arrange to have on duty a
sufficient force to handle this mail
matter promptly.
The department desires to reduce
Sunday work to the maximum so that
is many of the employees as possible
may enjoy complete day Of rest on
Sunday. You should, therefore, re
quire only a sufficient number of
clerks to report for duty on that day
in order that transit mail and the mail
collected for dispatch may be handled
without delay. If no mail is dispatch
ed ON Sunday very early collection
should be made on oMnday morning
and the mail for local delivery dstrib-
uted before the carriers leave for their
first trip.

TEXT BOOK MEASURE
MEETS OPPOSITION
DECLARED IMPRACTICABLE BY
STATE EDUCATIONAL
DEPARTMENT

Little Rock, Aug 26.-The opposi-
ton to the proposed uniform text book
bill, one of the initiated measures, is
daily becoming stronger. The opposi-
tion does not arise from antagonism
TO the theory itself, but to the meth
DDS proposed by the bill, First the
department of education issued a
warning circular against it, analyzing
it carefully and pointing out its in
consistencies and impracticable fea-
lures.
Now Congressman Robinson opposes
It vigorously, although admitting that
much may be said in favor of the gen
eral proposition. He says the plans
of electing the commission is unneces-
sarily complicated and cumbersome,
and the secretary of the commission
is under no restraint, and could cor
rupt the returns without fear of pun
ishment

"The vacations, six weeks each at

enable amount in vacations, for board.
ices, athletics, etc, are all expensive.
The advantages of going to Oxford
as a Rhodes scholar, instead of paying
ones own way, include, besides the OBJ
Vious financial one, the advantage of
knowing, in his three years, 125 other
American Rhodes men; supervision

Politics, ignorance and Indifference
have combined to make it very difficult
to secure the best men as Rhodes
scholars. We are too slow to realize
the tremendous responsibility which
Rhodes munificence has cast upon us
as nation, and upon the young men
Of our schools as individuals. Boys
should begin in the high school to plan
for the scholarship. Teachers must
use this as an educational lever, and
we must constantly improve upon the
splendid record which Americans are
making in Oxford, and insure that our
Rhodes men shall return full of a spir-
it of service to their state and nation"

NEGRO'S BEHALF.

Little Rock, Aug. 26.-Robert Arm
strong's case has made deep impress
sion on Gov Donaghey. He is the
young negro sentenced to hang in Lit
tie Rock September 27 for assault,
and evidence recently at hand tends to
prove his innocence, and to fasten the
crime upon the late J. B. Brown, the
notorious '"Jack the Shooter" This
evidence consists of an anonymous let
ter written early in December which
has been identified by handwriting ex-
perts as having been written by
Brown. The writer of this letter ad-
mits that he and not Armstrong was
guilty of the crime.
Prosecuting Attorney Rogers is
very positive in his conviction of Arm
strong's guilt, and declares that to
grant him clemency would be to per-
nit "sympathetically, idiotically uni
formed justice of rule" He further

ATTACKED HIS WIFE;
DAUGHTER KILLS HIM

HERRIN. Ill. Aug. 22.-Thomas Cuff
fy, president Of a miners union at
Colpville, and his daughter-in-lsw. Mrs.
Anna Floher, shot each other to death
here last night, when the latter tried to
save the life of Mrs. Guffy, who had
been attacked by her husband.
Guffy's wife left him a month ago
and he called at his mother-in-law's
home to see her. He told her he had
come TO kill the entire family, and fired
at her. The bullet went wild and Mrs.
Floher opened fire on him from win
dow. Several shots were exchanged be-
tween the two, Guffy receiving six bull
lets. Mrs. Floher was shot through the
heart.
