KILLED WITH AN AK

Hardy, April 27.- Leonard Davis, prominent young farmer living a few miles northwest of Hardy, died this morning from a wound received accidentally from an ax in the hands of a young man working for him. The two men went to the wooes to make some ties and both were working on the same log Davis was hewing and the other man scoring, their backs turned together, when the ax of the hired hand glanced, striking MT. Davis just back of the knee, cutting an artery, from which he bled to death before a physician could be reached.

WORK TRAIN WRECKED

A work train coming south on the White River road was wreck ed near Berry's switch, short distance west of Calico Rock, Sun- day about noon. The engine and two cars were ditched, and Brake man c. F. Owens was seriously injured, his right leg being broken in three places and his hip badly crushed. Engineer Dycus and Fireman Routzong jumped from their engine and escaped uninjur- ed.
 Excessive rains had caused a small stream to damage the road bed to such extent that when the train ran upon the weakened track 1t gave way, causing the engine and two cars to leave the track and tumble down a high embank- ment.

OLDFiELD FOR SENATOR

A number of newspapers over this district are boosting Hon. W. A. Oldfeld, present congressman, for James P. Clarke's place in the U. s. senats two years from now. A movement of this kind would please the people of Randolph county very much. MT Oldfeld won a great victory in the recent primary election and this is high tribute to his worth as a congress- man. He is very popular over the district and in the future will re- cieve the endorsement of the peo- pie for any of the higher officers he might wish to win.-Pocahon- tas Star-Herald.

COM MMITTEE
 HAS NO POWER
Only Way to Select Nominee is by Primary, Otherwise No
 Obligation Exists

MT. Editor:-In your last weeks Journal and also in the Gazette and the Guard were articles sug- gesting that the county central committee appoint W. J. Caldwell to fill the vacancy on the Demo- cratic ticket caused by the death of J. C. Stroud. You and your contemporaries, theGuard and the Gazette, are all wrong in offering such a suggestion, because there were about 2300 voters in the last primary who did not vote for Mr. Caldwell, and he got about 10S6 votes, so you see not more than third of the voters have expressed themselves in favor of Caldwell. and two-thirds express themselves in favor of other men. Again, you are wrong, because there is no precedent, and no law authorizing the Democratic Central Committee to fill such vacancies, and for them to assume such unwaranted DOW CT and authority, as to attempt to make a nomination for the Dem ocratic party of the county would be the height of unwarranted pre- sumption, and the voters would not stand for 1t. As rule, peo- pie are opposed to just a few men, such as central committee, rul- ing the country or party. say let the people rule. There Is no need for another primary; let anybody run who wants to in the general election. You know that no ap- pointed man was ever elected in Independence County. And no Democrat would be under party obligations to vote for such an ap- polntee. The primary is the only way to nominate a man so as to bind Democratic voters.

FOR GREATER
 STATE FAIR
New Features to be Added and Fair This Year Will be Best
 in History of State

Hot Springs, May 1.-Elaborate preparations are being made to eclipse all previous efforts in as SembHng the greatest Fair and Exposition ever seen in this section of the country. To step into head quaterS just now a stranger would almost mistake 1t for the head quarters of the Panama Exposition as everything is hustle and hurry. The merry hum of the typewriter can be heard on all sides, and tons of advertising matter is being pre- pared for distribution. It has been the purpose and ambition of the promoters of this great enterprise, to make 1t all that the name im- plies, great State Fair, and after seven years of hard labor and the expenditure of vast sums of mon- ey, the State Fair of Arkansas has taken its place alongside of other State Fairs and is now recognized as one of the strongest and best expositions in the United States. The premium list for 1912 has been materially increased and many new classes added.
 The great exhibition palace will be crowded this year with very fine exhibits from all parts of the United States, as 1t has now be- come an established fact through out the country among manufact- urers and exhibitors generally that the very best results have been at tained from showing their pro- ducts at the Arkansas State Fair.
 The Fair this year will open in a perfect blaze of glory as the greatest spectacular production ever witnessed on a fair ground will be seen on this occasion. Add ed to this, many well known na- tional characters will be present and participate in the opening ceremonies as well as the State and also a number of Arkansas foremost citizens.
 The United States Government through its agents in this State, will assemble the great Boys Corn Club at this time besides giving every assistance possible in build ing up the greatest agricultural exhibit in the history of this insti- tuition.
 The educational, geological, tex tile, speed, live stock, poultry ex- position and amusement depart ments are all to be greatly enlarg-
