May Name Ray.

When the Board of Public Works
meets On Jan. 2, the Indications are
that J.. Enos Ray, of Prince Georges
county, former Speaker of the
House of Delegates, will be elected
State Auditor, thus ending the
deadlock which has existed over
this office since last February.
The selection of Mr.. Ray, it is re-
ported, will be acceptable to Ar
thur P. German, who is responsible
for the continued vacancy In the
office because of his demand that
John F. O'Malley, his chief lieu
tenant in Howard county, should be
elected, and the remarkable at
titude of Mr.. Vandiver that Cor
man was entitled to name the Audi
tor. Ray Is highly satisfactory to
Comptroller Harrington and Treas
urer Vandiver, the two Democratic
members of the Board, and to the
State and city organization leaders.
For weeks leading Democrats
have realized that the factional and
personal fight over the authorship
was having a serious effect on the
party, and they have been trying to
agree upon a compromise candidate.
This could not be done because
Mr.. Vandiver refused to move until
Mr.. German named the man, and
German refused to name anyone
save O'Malley, for whom Harrington
would not vote. German, it is now
said, has agreed to Ray, and Vandi-
yer will vote for him. Ray main
tains friendly relations with ali the
organization leaders, and thus his
election, 1t is asserted, will not
stir up any factional strife. He is
also a friend of Senator Smith.

Rabbits Getting Tame.

If all reports be true, the rabbit,
which has always borne the reputa-
ton of being the most timid of ami
mails, Is no longer so; whether the
change Is due to contempt for the
craftsmanship of many of the local
gunners or not cannot at this time
be ascertained, but 1T ds known that
three we'll known gentlemen, one
of whom was a High street barber,
went out yesterday, and after
spending several hours on the hunt,
succeeded in getting one rabbit and
one cedar tree. The rabbit was
killed as the result of its refusal
to get out of the way Of the three
men,as one of the guns was snapped
at it twice, with the result that it
would hop into the bushes and then
come out and look to see If the
gunner wanted to try again. Final
ly, after several attempts, to the
surprise of the gunners and the rab-
bit, the gun went off, and the rab-
bit, accidentally, of course, happen
ed to be in the way of the load of
shot, and was MORALLY wounded. AL
most any jury would, after consid-
ering the evidence, bring in a YER
dict of accidental killing. The rab-
bit, too, would probably be CEN
sured for failing to take the prop
er precautions for its safety, al
though when it looked at the in
nocent gunners, who could blame
1t for feeling that it needed no life
insurance?

Price Of Eggs Drop.


Under the recent campaign OF
storage eggs, and also a fall off in
the demand for fresh, country eggs,
at the high prices which have been
prevailing, fresh eggs have declin-
ed to &c. a dozen, wholesale, this
being the price at which they were
quoted in the city markets on We'd
nesday.
While the drop in the prices of
eggs comes as a pleasant surprise
to the consumer, it is probably due
also to the warm weather which has
prevailed during the past few days,
which has stirred the hens to I'M
wonted activity.

SVS8 AVSA ORS1g D6nSk Candidate For Congress Ou1lines Ills Platform
 For the Nomination.
 To the people of the Second
 Congressional District of Ark ansas.
 l am a candidate for the Dem- ocratic nomination for Congress- man from this District in the
 Democratic Primary Election to
 be held on March 27th. My op-
 ponent is now serving his second
 term in this office, and is a can-
 didate fora third term. I con- tend that he has done nothing
 for the people during his two
 terms in Congress to entitle him
 to break the time-honored Dem- ocratic custom of two terms and out and be given a third term. The first year he was in Congress
 he introduced a bill to give to EARNHEART and Maxfield, two wealthy men of Batesville, the exclusive right to luse the water power at dam No. ? Ion White river after the people had been taxed more than $500. .0O0,OO to build this dam. Surely this does not entitle him to a third term. The second year he was in Con- .gress he introduced the NEFA- RIOUS SUNK LANDS BILL. which, if it had passed, would have ROBBED THE PEOPLE OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS WORTH OF THE FINEST LANDS IN THE STATE AND GIVEN THESELANDS TO A
 BUNCH OF RICH LAND SHARKS. Undoubtedly this does not justify his claim for a third term!
 If you elect me to Congress l promise you to work faithfully and earnestly for the enactment of laws that will give to all the people g square deal; laws that
 will give to al the people the full
 benefit of the expenditure of their public moneys. l believe the most important matter be- fore the people today is the im- proyement of the public roads of the country. No argument is necessary to convince you of the
 importance of this question.
 Your own experience in pulling through the mud and niire this
 winter. has been Esargument enough. The only problem to be
 solved in connection with the
 road question is: Where shall
 we get the money with which
 to improve onr roads? l have
 heard thissquestion answered by
 this statement: Simply increase the road tax. However, simple Fthis answer may appear, 1t is not my answer to the question:. Taxes are too high already. They are becoming 9 burden Hpon
 the people and must be rednceds |Let me give you my answer to the question ?'slWhere. shall we |get, the money to- improve our rpeds?vfI point to that great mountain of money lying in the | National Treasury at Washinton |City which has been paid in there by the people of this country in
 the years that have past. in tar- Tiff duties, excise taxes and other forms of National taxation, and and I ask you to consider how these billions are now being spent by the Coneressmen who represent us! The records show that they have spent. outssof this money of the people in the last ten yearso on the Army and Navy that is for hattleships. big guns and the ike the almost unthink-l able sum of g, l92, 086, 585, 20. And yet those ten years the Ma tional Government has not spent one dollar to help the people build public roads in this country. l>-, ' ..l.3s.t-
