 weeks trip in the North, during which, he spent several days in Chicago as. the guest of the officials of his con- pany, stated yesterday that the Free Bridge that is to be built over the, Arkansas river at this place, is at tracting much attention from finan- cie1s interested in the Security com- paay.
 "I was asked to attend a special meeting of the. finance committee of our company said MT.

MANY MEET JOHNSON
 IN NEW YHRk CITY.

New York, Aug. 21.-AssuraEoe that the proposed bout between John- son and Joe Jeannette would be stag ed in this city advanced Monday when the McMahon brothers, proprietors of the St. Nicholas Athletic Club, posted with a sporting editor of a New York newspaper a certified check for $o,000 as forfeit bind- ing them to stage the bout at the St. Nichols Athletic Club on September 25. It was said here that Johnson was expected tc post a $5,000 forfeit in Chicago tonight. There is a great doubt that the State Athletic Con- mission, which regulates boxing in New York State, will allow the ne- groes to meet here. It had been e. ported that the athletic commission would meet Monday to decide upon it's attitude, but the meeting did rot take place.

P. B. COMPANY
 BUYS 100000 BLOCKS
WILL USE THEM BETWEEN CAR TRACKS WHEN NEW RAILS
 ARE LAID.
Finest Grade is Purchased By Local COmpany-Discusses Paving
 Material.

Monroe Wright, of Kansas City, representing the Western Paving Brick Manufacturers Association, yes- terday contracted with the Pine Bluff Company for the delivery in this city within the next few weeks of 100000 Buffalo blocks, No. 1, which will be used by the street railway company in paving between the tracks on all lines in this city that are to be re- laid with new and heavier steel. Three cars of the brick will be ship ped today from Buffalo, Kanas, by the Buffalo Brick, Company, with which firm the order was placed. Four or five carloads will follow next week. The contract was closed with MT. Wright by General Manager B. c. Fowles, of the Pine Bluff Company.
 In discussing brick pavements, MT. Wright declared that if properly laid brick is the best pavement in use. He asserst that the abuse to which brick pavements are subjected, in tearing them up and not properly re- placing them, prompts some people to misjudge the value of the material for paving purposes. MT. Wright said that whenever a pavement is laid under the proper specifications and rules there is no better pavement in the world.
 Mir. Wright says that the order of the Pine Bluff Company is out of the ordinary, from the fact that No. blocks, the highest grade paving ma terial made by the Buffalo concern, was purchased for use here. It is not a common thing for a street rail- way company to purchase such an expensive brick, he said, for such a purpose, cheaper material usually being sought.
 He will remain here several days discussing the proposed pavement on South Main street with the property owners.

 Company, the first thing they asked me was about the success of the Free Bridge movement. I had no idea that they had heard of the Free Bridge here or that they were giV- ing it any thought, but soon learhed that they were giving it much thought and that trey had planned to make large loans in this locality if il is built They decided, when I told them that the Free Bridge was assur- ed, to make some large leans in this city and our president, Mir. w. O.. Johnson, will arrive here in a few weeks for that purpose.

POLITICIANS
AGAINST HIM
Declared Theodore Roosevelt in
Letter to Dixon
ENDORSES PRIMARY PLAN
Col Roosevelt Demands That People Be
Given Chance to Express Their De-
sire, and If They Decide Against
Him He Will Submit.
ENDORSES PRIMARY PLAN

Washington, D, c., March lin a
letter on the subject of preferential
presidential primaries, from Roosevelt
to Dixon, director of the Roosevelt ma
tional headquarters here, given out last
night by Dixon, Roosevelt apparently
endorses Dixon's challenge to Director
Mckinley of the Taft headquarters for
such primaries.
Roosevelt refers to the nomination Of
federal officeholders which President
Taft recently withdrew from the Sem
ate and infers Taft took such action
to provide an example" for politicians
eve demand" he says, that states
like Illinois, Michigan, New York and
Massachusetts, be given a chance to ex-
press their preferences in presidential
primaries. Practically the entire body
OF professional politicians is pitted
against US, led by officeholders who,
with this example before them Of what
was done in connection with nominal
tions for local officers in North Carolina,
are working as we rarely see them
work.
IF the people decide against us, we
viii bow cheerfully to the decision.
But we emphatically object to having
issues decided against US not by the peo-
pie. but by spoils of politicians and pat
ronage mongers engaged in defraudng
the American people out of their first
and most elemental right, the right to
self government"

A New Remedy for Skin
Troubles.

Many skin troubles are not caused bv
the blood, as most people think Ex-
ternal treatment is therefore the most
direct and rational way to effect cure.
A chemist who was convinced of this
fact found that an extract of the plant
Juniperus Oxyeedrus was most soothing
and healing to an irritated, infamed or
diseased skin. BY a special method OF
treatment this vegetable extract is now
combined with other antiseptic, healing
ingredients, and is known as Cadum.
This new compound has cured thousands
of cases of eczema and other distressing
skin diseases after other remedies had
failed 1t stops the terrible itching Of
eczema at once, and begins healing with
the first application. Cadum can be used
with confidence in all skin affections of
infants and adults It has proved a
blessing TO many who have suffered for
years from tormenting and disfguring
skin diseases. Cadum is different from
anything else. 1t acts quickly upon pim-
pies. sores, ulcers, eruptions. rashes,
rough skin, blotches, chafings, scalp
sores, itching piles, etc. Sold by all
druggists at l0e and 25c.

TUFTS ATHLETICS
GET A SET BACK
Through Loss of Capt. Kattelle of the
1918 Team Because of His Weak
Heart-Other Athletic
News

Boston, March 1.-THE prospects for
a strong track team at Tufts college
received quite blow this week when
! it was learned that Lawrence w. Kat
| telle, captain of the 1913 team, was at
! a hospital With heart trouble. Kat
| telle is the best man in the dashes at
Tufts and it looks extremely improb-
able now that be viii be able to do
any more running for year at least.
| His loss will be felt in the final meet
with New Hampshire state, which Man
ager Greenough has arranged for June
l at Durham, ~ II.
The surprise Of the week in Tufts
athletic circles has been the rumor that
Coach Tobin of the football team has
sent in his resignation with the request
that the three years contract which he
holds, be cancelled in order that he
may accept business opportunity in
New York. The athletic advisory board
has taken no action upon the matter
yet, but it is believed that strong eff
fort is being made to have Tobin re.
consider his decision. Tobin made an
unqualified success in his football coach
ing this year and the Tufts students
believed that in the next two years,
under his direction, a permanent foot
ball system would be built up under
him.
For the FIRST time in several years
the TBfts tennis team is to meet
team from some other college. Manager
Proctor has arrenged a match with uni-
yersity of Vermont at Medford May Is.
An attempt is to be made this spring
to create an active interest in tennis.
The courts on the old campus will prob
ably be entirely made over and big
spring tournament is being planned. In
addition to the match with the univer-
sity of Vermont. Tufts will probably
enter a team in the New England in
tereollegiate matches, and If sufficient
interest is shown in the sport several
other intercollegiate matches will be ar
ranged,
The baseball candidates continue their
daily workouts in the cage, the work
last week having been very fast, since
all of the men are putting forth their
best PAGES through fear of the cut in
the squad. which is momentarilv OK
pected. The squad Is now altogether too
big for effective indoor work and prob
ably 20 Of the 80 odd men will be
dropped.

WILSON TRUSTS THE PEOPLE.
Says Popular Vote Is Far from BeinG
"Mob Rule

| New York. March H. Coy. Woodrow
! Wilson, speaking at a banquet of the
/ Brooklyn league Saturday night, declared
that anyone who spoke of populai
vote of the American people as moi
government had no right to call himself
an American. While Gov Wilson's speech
was wholly political, he did not mention
either OF the Republican presidential
candidates by name, other than to use
Col. Roosevelt's in an anecdote, nor did
he directly refer to the recall or the
referendum.
u am not afraid of the American peo-
pie getting up and humping themselves -
said the governor. Il am only afraid
they will not; and when | hear popular
vote spoken of as mob government, feel
like telling the man who utters that that
he has no right 70 call himself an Ameri-
can. just picture to yourselves, gentle
men, the great voting population Of New
York, from the sea TO the far borders,
going calmly. man by man, to the polls,
expressing their Judgment of our pubric
affairs. and ask yourselves if that is
your image of a mob?
"'Wlhat is a mob? a mob is a body
of men in hot contact with one another,
moved by n single, ungovernable passion
upon doing a hasty thing that they will
regret the next day. DO you see any
thing resembling mob in that voting
population of the countryside, men
tramping over the mountainside, men
going to the general store at the village,
men going into little conversing groups
to cast their ballots-is that your notion
Of mob, or is that your picture of free,
self-governing people!
q am not afraid Of the judgment so
expressed if You will give men time to
think, if you will give them clear con
ception Of what they are to vote; be-
cause the deepest conviction and passion
of my heart is that the common people,
by which | mean all OF us are TO be
absolutely trusted. The popularity of
some representatives, particularly of the
Republican party, is that when they talk
about the people they obviously do not
include themselves. Now if when You
think of the people you are not thinking
about yourself, then you do not belong
to America"
