 HOUSE DIRECTORS JAN. IA
FILL BOARD OF NEW OFFICERS ARE TO BE SELECTED AT
 ANNUAL MEETING.
William Cargill Has Gone To Chicago To Prepare Plans and Specifi-
 cations.

The following notice has been sent out from; the office of the. Arkansas Packing Company, calling for a meet ing of the stockholders to meet on January IA for the purpose of electing new directors to serve for year:
 At a meeting of the board of di- re ectors yesterday General Manager Cargill, together With the building committee appointed by President Byrd, was instructed to proceed at once perfecting the plans in detail, and to advertise for bids. The con tract VII be let for the building Of the plant without delay, immediately after the annual stockholders meet ing on January 14th, which meeting we hope you will attend, at which time full board of new directors VII be selected for next year.
 ''Pine Bluff has subscribed liberal ly for stock in this plant. The peo- pie of Southeast Arkansas are to be congratulated on securing this enter prise It means new era of grea,- CT prosperity fer our people. It will mean the establishment of a I've stock market where the farmers and stock raisers can market thelr stuff any day in the year at current mar ket prices.
 ''It means a saving of thousands Of dollars to our people annually. The packing house here means greater increased land values. It is the candidly expressed opin on of men who are authority on matters of thls kind that our land values in South east Arkansas will be doubled within five years.
 Gan you think of any propos 'tion that is worth so much to our people as whole as a packing house? What does it mean to you individually and to your own business interests? As an investment we honestly believe that every dollar invested in the packing house stock will double in side of five years.
 Speak a good word for the pack ing house. It means more to you and your section than you can at this time realize Let us work together and build 1t without delay. The pack ing plant is. ours.'

had done and said.
1t appears that Mr.. Penrosc while

Mr. Archbold and that he was serv-
ing on that commission in a peculiar
ly confidential relation Ia Ny. Arch

OF its publication.
Mr. Pcnrose and Mr.. Archbold

itself and the whole alliance between
Mr.. Penrose and Mr.. Archbold and
Mr.. Penrose's action In connection
Herewith are a startling example Of
the workings of that invisible empire
10 whose reign We Intend to put an
end.
These documents show that Mr..
Penrose. nominally the representative
Of the people was secretly and in the
dark acting as the representative OF
Mr. Archbold Mr. Archbold's testi-
hoped TO get from me and my ad
ministration some improper consider

me because he could not influence me,
because under my administration.
Justice was meted out To him and his
kind as u should have been meted
out
His complaint against me is that
neither through political pressure nor
the use Of money in politics could lie
exercise any Influence over me, and
his complaint is just.

to expect the committee to refuse TO
permit Mr. Archbold to go away un-

now He and Mr. Penrosc both
should be vigorously cross examined ,
as TO the transactions between them
so as To see what explanation they
can possibly give as to the correspon-
dence between them when Mr. PEN

commission and both should be rigor
ously examined as to their relations
together In previous years.

Thinks Letter Forgery,

Archbold declared that the letter which
mentioned $4,000 sent to Peurose seemed
TO be a forgery: '"rhe signature is very
unlike my own he said.
Mr- Archbold admitted that he might
nave written several OF the other letters
but that he had no recollection of them.

telegram which Senator Penrose had In
serted in his speech before tho senate
before Wednesday to show that William
Finn sought to get Mr.. ArchooId's g iuflu-
ence In the senatorial contest In Penn
SylNania after the death Of Senator Quay
Mr. Archhod declared that he took no
part in the election and had never partici-
pated in senatorial light except in a
simple, individual way"
Senator Clapp excused Mr.. Archbold
from further testimony today on condi-
ton that he would be subject to being re-
called in October.

''We indorsed Roosevelt" said Peurose

not new, II has been told before by
others Indeed. I repeated the story
Of the 100000 contribution to Treas
urer. Bliss In a political speech in
Baltimore four years 90 and il was
reported In the sun OF that city and
think. In the American.
Nor is Colonel Roosevelrs self
serving declaration TO Cortelyou

elect that IL was reported that
President Roosevelt told Chairman
CortelNou 10 return the money 10 the
Standard people and cautioned my
hearers TO remember. should such A
letter be produced by or through
him:
THAT the money was not re-
turned 10 the Standard people. but
was kept by the committee and
spent by Il.
2-Tbat Cortelyou was not pun
ished by his chief for keeping and
spending it,
3-Instead. he rewarded him bv
making him postmaster general and
after promoting him TO be secretary
of the treasury.
4-These facts ought 10 satisfy any
man that the letter was not written
to be obeyed but written for pro-
duction for public consumption In
case the contribution should be some
time exposed.
Self-serving declarations are not
admissible In evidence In courts of
justice, But Colonel Roosevelts eN-
perience teaches him. nevertheless.
that be can make effective use OF let
tcrs written In his own behalf be-
fore the court OF public opinion.
These two letters written by him 10
the chairman Of the committee In
1901 are Illustrations. They were
written 10 throw dirt in the eyes of
many good people and In a meas
ure accomplished that result. The
letter To Mr.. Cortelyou was likewise
written to the end that II found out
The president might say dear peo-
ple. don't YOU see that II was my
trusted friend Cortelyou's fault. not
mine: | wrote him TO pay back the
money and here IS the letter.
Experience teaches that there VIII
be many good people who will be-
lieve that Treasurer Bliss worked
hard to get this money; that Chair
man Cortelyou kept il and together
they spent it without the knowledge
and consent of the then President
Roosevelt. and this too. notwith
standing the letter told Cortelyou 10

who believe even as against light
and knowledge is rapidly growing
smaller.
