MAYOR W. H. DUNCAN
 THANKS THE VOTERS
Editor Log Cabin Democrat:

Editor Log Cabin Democrat
 1 take this method of extending my thanks to the Democratic voters of Conway for honoring me with the nomination to succeed myself as may or of the city. l desire to include not only those who voted for me, but those who voted for my opponents in this expression of appreciation. l feel that We all have the best inter ests of Conway at heart and are working for the advancement of our city, so that l have no feeling of i'll will toward those who thought the other candidates were better fitted for the position. Judging from the re- suits of yesterdays election, I think the people decided to elect a council in accord with the mayor instead of a mayor in accord with the council. I think l am safe in predicting that the next administration will be har- monious one and one that will en- deavor to do much for the upbuilding of our city.

ROAD ENGINEERING IN THE UNIVERSITY CONVENTION FAYORS IT GOOD ROAD MEN ADJOURN AT LITTLE ROCK AFTER ELECT
 ING OFFICERS.

Little Rock, Feb. 16.-At the con- clusion of the annual convention of the Arkansas Good Roads and Drain age Association, the following off cers were elected: President, Harry E. Cook, Lake Village; vice presi- dent, w. H. Harvey of Monte Ne; secretary, Geo. R. Brown of Little Rock.
 A peculiar condition developed re- garding the reduced rates on the rail- roads, which had been granted -nt one and one-third fares, on the certificate plan, provided 200 tickets were sold. Hundreds failed to secure their cer- tifcates, however, from the agent when buying the tickets, and out of 43S delegates registered, only 113 had certificates, so that all had to pay full fare.
 The new president was authorized to appoint nine delegates to the Na- tional Drainage Congress n New Or leans April 10-13.
 The following resolution by Judge Ben F. Greer of Washington county was unanimously adopted:
 Whereas, we are maintaining in our state great university where our young men receive training in civil engineering; therefore, be it
 Resolved by the Arkansas Coco Roads Convention, That it is the sense of this body that it would ado greatly to the usefulness of the worl of the university, to the advancement of the improvement of our public roads, and thereby add to the materia advancement and wealth of the stat, of the department if civil engineering would stress and make more prom nent highway engineering; that W, ask those in authority in our stat, university to make more prominent that part of the course in civil en gineering and thereby greatly ad vance the worth of the universitf tC the people of the state"

that he has made up his mind TO tackle

The impression is growing that

Among those who remember the sensa-

1893 when for a time they led the

a suspicion that the present good showing
of the team will prove but a repetition of
its former experience. But there Is

BY J. ED GRILLo.

What a wonderful difference the addi-
ton of one man can make in a ball team
is proved in the case of Foster. While, OF
course, there have been many other
changes in the makeup of the Nationals
since last season, none of these appears
to have been as beneficial to the team as
the acquisition of Foster. He has filled
a place where the team has always been
weak and by his clever work at the bat
has filled even a greater gap.
To Foster belongs the credit for most
of the victories the Nationals have earn
ed this spring. When he has not taken
a part in the offensive end of the game
he has prevented disaster by his remark
able fielding around third base With a
player less capable than he covering that
position, it can be easily figured that
three or four of the games which have
been lost would have been defeats.
On what he has shown this spring
Foster is a remarkably clever ball player
in every respect. One wonders that a
man of his ability should have spent so
long time in the minor leagues. No
third baSeman in this circuit has shown
himself in the same class with the little
fellow. nor does it seem reasonable to
suppose that his showing has been a
flash in the pan, for he is keeping up
his good work at a consistent rate.
In the games that Boston has played
against the Nationals this spring the
former seems to have shown a lack OF
spirit and determination. 1t may be that
because of the effectiveness OF Griffit n S
pitchers against the Red Sox they
are not showing to their best advantage,
but there is no getting away from the
fact that something is lacking. Stahls
team is not hustling. as it should, and
placed, for the reason that the team is
not displaying any great ability in this
respect.
1t may. of course, be that this state of
affairs only exists when Boston plays the
Nationals. for it often happens that a
team does all its poor work against some
certain rival
Chicagos present squirt cannot be taken
seriously. Callahan has a corps Of good
pitching stuff. which is sure to hold the
team fairly we'll up in the race, but as a
whole the team hardly looks like one that
has a chance for the pennant. The Sox.
too, have had the advantage of playing a
lot of teams which are not going at their
best. OF course, they are always
going to be troublesome. because they
have pitchers that are hard to hit but
the team cannot boast of speed and is
just fair fielding aggregation. BY July
there is sure to be a different aspect
on the pennant race, and the sox will not
be apt to be leading.
It begins to look as If the Johnson
Flynn fight would take place July at

The like of the coming match has not

English scullers were undefeated from
the first race in 1881 until 1875 when
New South Wales took the title. Since
that day England has never owned q
