CADRON LAND Is
IDEAL FOR RICE
EXPERIMENT SHOWS THAT
RICE WILL MAKE A
GOOD CROP.

Nm. ]. drummer of this city
brought to The Log Cabin Democrat
office this morning several stalks of
Honduras rice, which was grown as
an experiment at his farm on Cadron
creek, six miles north of town.
The rice was planted on March II
and is already beginning to head. The
stalks measure 60 inches in length and
are of very thrifty growth, having
large full heads.
Mr.. drummer states that the exper-
iment is being made under the govern
ment farm demonstrators direction,
according to scientific methods.
As soon as lock can be installed
in the creek to keep back alkal water,
rice will be made the regular crop.
This will be an ideal place as the Cad
ron furnishes an abundance of water
and the land is rolling enough to be
easily flooded.

.DFNOUNCfS Change
IN ELECTION Law
A REPUBLICAN SCHEME
JOE T. ROBINSON ATTACKS
PROPOSED ACT NO.
IN SPEECH.

Walnut Ridge, Aug. 28.-"Arkansas
is not ready yet to permit Ben. Clay
ton or his henchmen to rewrite our
election laws declared Congressman
Robinson in speech here this after
noon.
This statement was made in the
course of an attack made on proposed
act No. 3, initiated by the Republicans
proposing certain amendments to the
election law.
"The Democratic party has enacted
election laws which, in the main, are
fair" said he. Representatives Of the
Republican party are hypocritical
when they pretend to favor fair elec-
tions. They have deliberately COM
mitted frauds in state and national
elections throughout the history Of the
Republican party.
I'm 1871 the Republican party pass
ed an act in this state which was the
means of more corruption and oppres-
sion during the lew years it was in
force than has occurred under Demo
cratic administration since. Arkansas
was admitted to the union.
Under the Republican election law
the county assessor prepared the reg
|i5,ration lis. and admitted such per-
sons as f. una quail fled, de lyipe regis-
tration to al ex -Confederates tn.
governor was empowered to set aside
any registration which he regarded
fraudulently and to order q new one.
This placed the control of the state
government in the hands of carpet
baggers and negroes. Resident white
citizens were disfranchised Adven-
turers and recently liberated slaves
controlled the government. We want
none of that now"

PETITIONS GIVEN
COMMISSIONERS
WORK OF PROHI LEADERS
ENTIRE VOTING POPULATION
OF SOME TOWNSHIPS
SIGN THE REQUESTS.

Petitions containing the signatures
CT an aggregate over 1000 Faulkner
voters asking for the appointment of
election judges friendly to the cause
prohibition have been filed with
Chairman ", H. Duncan of the coun-
~ board Of election commissioners.
Separate petitions are filed from each
township and voting precinct, every
one in the county being represented.
In some of the townships the peti-
tloners made practically a clean
sweep, securing the signatures of al
most every voter. In all of them
more names were secured than the
number of votes usually cast in the
township at a general election. Har-
din township, which rarely casts more
than 100 votes, came up with 1853 sig
natures, and several other townships
made records equally as good.
Prof. J. NJ. c. Vaughter, who has
been directing the work of circulating
the petitions and who filed them with
the commissioners, is confident that
election judges acceptable to the state
wide cause will be appointed.
81 am sure" he said today, that
there will be no friction and the cleo
ton of officers acceptable to the pro
hibitionists will be named by the COM
missioners. Probably not every man
asked for will be appointed and there
may be good reasons for not appoint
ing some of them, but | have been as
sured that where the men petitioned
for are not named, other men equally
friendly to prohibition will be appoint
ed"
In each of the three voting pre-
cincts in Cadron township and the
city of Conway a list of several
names was submitted, the petitioners
asking that appointments be made
from the list submitted In the other
townships, in most cases, only three
names for judges were submitted.
The following is list of townships
in which petitions pledging support
to statewide and naming judges to be
selected, with the number of names to

URGES SUPPORT
OF IHf II. BILL
AND NEW SUFFRAGE ACT
DON AGHEY MINGLES POLITICS
WITH PROHIBITION IN
SPEECH.

Austin, Aug. Ex-Governor George
W. Donaghey spoke here today before
a fair-sized audience on issues Of the
present campaign. After advocating
that all good Democrats support the
party ticket he launched into a discus
SION Of the facts and amendments that
will be submitted to the people on
September 8, and urged that the peo
pie support the Turner-J acobson bill
and the grandfather clause" amend
ment.
Governor Donaghey stated that. not
withstanding the fact that he had
been defeated by Congressman Joe T.
Robinson in the LAST state primary
election, he was now doing all he could
to insure the election of Mr.. Robinson
by large majority. He predicted that
Mr.. Robinson will be elected by the
largest majority ever given COVER
nor in Arkansas. He said that at the
time he was first elected he received
the largest vote in the general election
that had been received up to that time,
and said that conditions now are even
more favorable for larger vote
"The Turner Jacobson bill is a good
measure because it divides the burden
Iof taxation equally" said the COVER
nor Il was interrupted in a speech
recently by a man who said that this
bill went into a farmers smokehouse
and taxed his meat. | said, The idea
of such a statement The farmer has
not any meat, neither has the poor
man. Suppose he did have a middling
and had to pay ten cents taxes under
the Turner-JacobsOn bill Every time
he paid ten cents of taxes the rich
man would have to pay $50 on his
holdings. Can't a farmer pay ten
cents on a middlng of meat in order
to get the wealthy man to pay $50,
that otherwise would not be paid?
Again | have been asked if a farmer
wouldn't have TO pay on his timber.
The answer is simple The farmer
hasn't any timber. There is an area
of fifteen million acres of timber land
and that belongs to the corporations
that are not being taxed in proper
ton to the land owned by the poor
man.
The governor then took up the
grandfather clause" amendment, and
said that trade has been made be-
tween the whiskey men and the ne
groes, whereby the whiskey men will
swap the votes of 500 saloon keepers
for the votes of 900 negroes.
Don't you think that would be good
trade for the whiskey mem" he said.
The whiskey men boss Ill 900 negro
votes and absolutely control them
Couldn't that combination control
statewide politics on any question?
