SCHOOL
OPENS MONDAY
With LARGE ENROLMENT
SUPT. CANNON BELIEVES EN-
ROLLMENT WILL EXCEED
THAT OF LAST YEAR.

Everything is in readiness for the
opening Of the Conway public school
which begins Monday, Sept. l6. Supt.
Cannon stated this morning that in
dlcations point to the largest enroll
ment in the history of the institution.
Several from outside this district
have expressed their intention of at
tending the Conway school. Super
lntendent Cannon is very desirous of
having all members of the school
board, as well as all others who are
interested in the school, present at the
opening exercises Monday morning at
9 o'clock.
1t is hoped that all who expect to
attend either the high school or the
lower grades the coming year will en-
roll at once and begin the school year
with the regular classes. The pupils
who enter month or two late labor
under handicap that is hard to over
come, and one that makes doubly hard
the work of both teacher and pupil.
The opening exercises will begin at
= O'Clock promptly. The first bell will
ring at $50 and no one will be ex-
pected on the campus before that
time.
There will only be a half day ses-
sion Monday in order to give the pu-
pills time to secure their books and
make all other arrangements neces-
sary to begin regular work on Tues
day.
The faculty fo. this year is one of
the strongest in the state. Most of
The teachers have been educated in
the schools of Conway and have had
several years experience as teachers.
The only new members of the faculty
for this year are Miss Mae Park, who
will teach Latin in the high school
and have charge of the library, and
Prof. Sam Scott, who will teach the
eighth grade End direct athletics.
Superintendent Cannon announces
the following faculty for the coming
session:
High School-R. H. Cannon, Sam
Scott, Miss Maggie Denison and Miss
Mae Park, and S. C. Parish.
Seventh grade-Miss Minnie Flip
pen.
Sixth grade-Mrs. Ida Burns.
Fifth grade-W. N. Jones.

ELECTRIC PLANT

had been connected with the plants
lines during the present week. The
number of consumers, he states, as
well as the amount of revenue, has
been almost doubled during the year
and half he has been in charge of
the plant. Mr. Leverett says if the
growth of the business continues at
the present rate it will be necessary
to install about $4,000 worth of new
machinery next year in order to carry
the increased load. The new equip
ment, ne thinks, can easily be paid for
out of the revenue of the plant.

BOND AMENDMENT
ADOPTION CERTAIN
SHORT SESSION POPULAR
TAX EXEMPTION AND RECALL
APPARENTLY CARRIED
STATEWIDE LOSES.

Little Rock, Sept. 14.-The bond
amendment has a lead of over 10000
on the votes already received, admit
ted by all to be a majority which the
further returns cannot overcome. II
is therefore certainty that this long
sought amendment to the constitution
has been adopted, and many cities are
expected to begin very soon to set on
foot movements for bond issues.
1t is also assured that the people,
by a tremendous majority, have de-
clared themselves in favor of sixty
day sessions of the legislature. 1t
appears that elective officers will soon
be subject to recall, and that capital
invested in cotton factories NAV be
exempt from taxation for a period of
years; also that the negroes may con-
tinue to vote without interpreting the
constitution.
All these things being out of the
way, the greatest amount of interest
centers in the statewide bill, on which
there are various estimates that will
not be definitely decided until the of
fetal returns from the last county are
IN. The liquor men claim they have
carried the state by about $4,000, in
stead of the 10000 they claimed at
first. The Gazette's figures gives
them majority of $500. The Ar
kansas Democrats figures are 44,044
for the act and 50,630 against it.
Taking all the reports together, Supt.
Frank Barrett figures a majority of
only 3,743 against the act, with about
10000 votes TO hear from The
liquor men claim there will be about
thirty wet counties instead of nine as
heretofore.
With the country vote coming in
as it does, and cutting down the anti
statewide majority said Supt Bar
rett, 1--WE have fine chance to win.
Aside from that there are reports of
fraud, sometimes of the most fragrant
character, especially in negro wards,
and several thousand votes may be
thrown out on that account. The sit
uation is being watched closely every
where, and the returns will be CON
tested wherever these frauds exist.
On the other hand, the liquor men
say that they have reports from
enough of the counties showing posi-
tive majorities chat cannot be over
come, which will give them the state
by about $4,000.

; WET COUNTIES
TOUCH FAULKNER

| For the first time in more than a
decade three counties adjacent to
Faulkner have voted for license and,
unless steps are taken by petition OF
otherwise to prevent, saloons will be
opened on January next in Cleburne
and Perry counties, which have been
dry for many years, in addition to
Pulaski, which has always voted wet.
When Perry county permitted the
sale of whiskey several years ago a
saloon was operated just across the
river from Faulkner county and only
about seven miles from Conway, the
establishment receiving considerable
patronage from this city. Later the
inhabitants of that vicinity success
fully petitioned for the removal of
the saloon to a point about 10 miles
from Conway. Since the last time
Perry county was wet, however, the
legislature has enacted a law prohib-
iting the establishment of a saloon in
any pave SASSPe a SlCJ VI dH liCOf-
porated town, and this law will serve
to prevent the sale of whiskey in Per-
ry county at any point nearer than
about 20 miles from Conway, and this
point would practically be less acces-
sible than Little Rock In Cleburne
county it is hardly likely that saloons
will be established at any place nearer
Conway than Heber Springs. The
shifting of Faulkner's two neighbor
counties back into the whiskey col
umn will, therefore, not serve to
make saloons any more accessible to
Conway than they have been all the
time at Little Rock, although there is
doubtless considerable territory in
this county which will be nearer to
saloons than it has been in the past.

ASSESSMENT Is
$4,000 LOWER
LOSS Is IN LIVESTOCK
ASSESSORS FIGURES SHOW DE
CREASE IN PERSONAL
PROPERTY VALUES.

A decrease of 1000, or about II
per cent, is shown in the total valua.
tion Of personal property in Faulkner
county this year, according to prelim.
mary figures furnished by Assessor
W. N. Jones. The complete abstract
of the assessors books has not vet
been made up, but the total obtained
show loss as stated.
An unusual decrease both in num-
Der and value of livestock is princi-
pally responsible for the drop in the
personality valuations this year, ac-
.cording to Mr.. Jones. The number
|of horses in Faulkner county in 1912
was 95 fewer than in the preceding
year and decreases in number are
shown in the following other items of
personal property: Mules, 1877; cat
tie, 1882; sheep, 445; hogs, S,018;
carriages, 800; organs and pianos, II.
Not only is the number of livestock
smaller but the value per head is al
most third lower than in 1911.
A gain of $5,015 was shown in the
value of merchandise in the county
and the assessor found 253 more per
sons subject to poll tax than in the
preceding year. The loss in personal
property valuations will be largely off
set by the assessment of improvements
on real estate and by increase in the
valuation of railroad property as as
sessedi by the State Tax Comission.

WILSON MARSHALL CLUB.

The Wilson, Marshall club of this
city will meet at the courthouse on
Monday night at o'clock. The pro-
gram committee are in communication
with several prominent speakers and
it is thought that the meeting will be
most enjoyable one.
The president of the club is desir-
Gus of having more of the younger
members present Monday night. He
stated today that the enthusiasm of
the young Democrats is needed to
arouse the older ones to take a more
active part in the campaign.

Home Mission Week.

Large congregations attended both
the morning and evening services at
the Second Presbyterian Church and
heard instructive sermons by the pas
tor, Dr.. Allison, on Home Mission
Work.
The text at the morning service
was Psalm 1872" Blessed is the IA
ton whose God is the Lord.
He said, among other things our
country must be Gods country, IN
order that Anglo-Saxon may play
their part in a world redemption and
be the determining factor in a. world
evangelization. He urged that Amer
lea be made thoroughly for the worlds
sake.
At the evening service DR.. Allison
spoke on the different mission fields
and emphasized city CHARACTERIZATION.
He illustrated the sermon by charts.

Weekly Forecast.

. L
Pressure contrasts over the north
ern hemisphere are sharply denied at
,sresent, with abnornlally high barom-
eter over Asia, the United States and
the Middle Atlancit Ocean, and abb
normally low barometer over the Cen
trial and North Pacific Ocean and Alas
ka. This indicates that the prevailing
fair weather will continue during the
week over the central, southern and
extreme western portions of the coun-
try, with a tendency toward somewhat
higher temperatures by Tuesday.
Rains and SHOWS will set in early
over the North Pacific States and the
far northwest, continuing during
much of the week and extending east
ward over the northern portion OF the
country, reaching the upper lake re-
gion about the middle Of the week and
northeastern districts toward the end
of the week.
There are no present prospects OF
unusually cold weather over any por-
ton of the country.
