SAYS CONTEST WILL
HELP RURAL SCHOOLS
SUPERVISOR BOND ENDORSES
PLAN BEING USED IN
THIS COUNTY.

Little Rock, Aug. 28.-Arrange-
ments have been completed in large
number of counties for holding school
and athletic contests of various kinds
in connection with the county fairs
this fall.
In speaking of the Importance of
these contests to the rural schools and
to the individual pupils in these
schools and the special benefits that
should result from holding these
school contests or school fairs, Prof
il. l.. Bond, supervisor of rural schools
said: Large numbers of children
from the schools of the county are
brought together on occasions of this
kind and there results a large outlook
for the school and community. A day
has been set apart and will be known
as school day at a number Of the
county fairs this year. The plan is to
have all school children admitted free
on this special day and all schools will
be urged to come in a body. This will
stimulate school interest and school
pride.
"School contests, including spelling,
defamation, map drawing etc, have
been arranged and there will also be
held athletic contests Of various kinds
for both boys and girls. These are
contests that require little or no time
for preparation.
in many instances special contests
will be held and teachers and pupils
are very enthusiastic in this work.
The friendly rivalry engendered by
these contests viii be Of real value in
an educational and social way I feel
that our rural schools will be greatly
benefited. 1t is to be hoped that ey-
cry county that has not yet organized
for this work will do so at once and
begin active work along this line. The
results to the schools should be far
reaching"

DENOUNCES CHANGE
IN ELECTION LAW
A REPUBLICAN, SCHEME
JOE T. ROBINSON ATTACKS
PROPOSED ACT NO. 9
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 a speech here this after
noon.
This statement was made in tina
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 cleo
tions. They have deliberately COM
mitted frauds in state and national
elections throughout the history of the
Republican party.
''In 1871 the Republican party pass
ed an act in this state which was the
means of more corruption and oppres-
oiOli duIiHS VIC lew years III WdS III
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.
isiration LIST and admitted such per-
sens as f. Una qualified, de lyire regii-
tratCn to I'll ex .Confederates. Th-
governor was empowered to set aside
any registration which he regarded
fraudulently and to order a new one.
This placed the control of the state
government in the hands of carpet
baggers and negroes. Resident white
citizens were DISTINGUISHED Adven-
turers and recently liberated slaves
controlled the government. We want
none of that now.
