FURTH MAY BE
 RE-APPO|Nt! Formation Of Bull M Party Reduced Eligib. For Postmaster
 ship.
His Alleged Actions in Congressional Convention Said to Have Caused
 State Leaders to itrsert Him.

Failure to stick with the admins tration forces at the Sixth Congress sional District convention, which was held in this city at which II. l.. Rem- mel, chairman of the State Republican Committee was present, and his al legged prominent action at the nation- al convention ill Chicago against the standpatters is said to be the main reason why pr. R. C. Thompson will not receive the commission as post master of Pine Bluff
 II is said that Mr. Thompson ad mitted yesterday thai he received un- official information to the effect that the commission would never be is- sued by President Taft
 In the Sixth Congressional conven. ton when Ferd llavis, the focal ne- gro politician. made a fight against an instructed delegation, the vote on which was a tie, Dr. Thompson, delegate in the convention from .Jef- i ferson county, Fe mitted Havis to cast the nine Jefferson county votes against an instructed delegation for Taft, killing the motion. Had Dr. l Thompson cast his own vote for in structions the delegates from the 1 Sixth district would nave been in- structed for Taft
 His failure to do this, which was evidently noticed by M. Remmel, 1 Taft adherent is said to have lost him the support of the acknowledged party leaders in Arkansas, and to this and the protest of the citizens of this city is due his failure to receive the commission as postmaster, even after the appointment had been made and Dr. Thompson had forwarded his bond to the postoffice department. Ap- pointments can be withdrawn at the pleasure of the president at any time.
 For the foregoing reasons it is con SlucIcu UA pOiltiNioHo 'hoe D'' Thompson has been eliminated as candidate for the rostmastership or l Pine Bluff, but it will be necessary for the state committee to be called together by the chairman. MT. Rem mel. to rescind it's action endorsing Thompson and recommending another man for the office before another ap- pointment can be made.
 When seen last night Postmaster F. c. Furth again made the emphatic statement that he made when the news was first received of Dr. Thomp- sons appointment, which was that he had positive telegraphic information that Dr. Thompson would never be commissioned postmaster of Pine Bluff which is now quite evident
 When asked who would likely be named for the office, MT. Furth had little to say.
 Since the Chicago convention and the formation of the Bull Moose party the ranks of the standpatters in Jeff ferson couny have dwindled greatly. as a great majority of the white Re- publicans, the only ones eligible for the postmastership, have aligned themselves with Roosevelt's third party
 Postmaster Furth's administration of postoffice affairs has been general lv satisfactory and it is rumored that he will he urged to seek reappoint- ments

PROFESSOR MASSEY

In the June issue of The Amerl-

entitled "Interesting People.
we are clad to find tribute to
the work of Professor Wilbur f.
Massey. a citizen of Maryland. He
is the man who introduced Grim
son clover into the Delaware
Maryland Peninsula. That IS a
great achievement as many are
ready to testify, but Prof. Massey
has gained a much wider reputa-
ton as the "Apostle of the Cow
pea" which has meant the re.
dcmption of so much waste land
in the South. Land that had re,

the form of the legume and the
result is better farming and more
money. Prof. Massey is widely
known through his institute work
and his helpful notes IN farm

THE DANGERS OF TRESPASSING

James McCrea. president OF the
Railroad, has written
a letter to magazine, calling at
tention to the dangers OF trespass-
ing, He said: e..
1T is horrible to me to think OF
the number Of trespassers that are
killed or injured on the lines OF
the railroads, simply because they
pay no attention to the laws on the
subject. On the Pennsylvania sys-
TEN alone, in the last ten years
there were 1923 trespassers killed,
and S.2S5 injured. The danger to
the public due to the custom o.
carrying concealed explosives on
passenger trains and trolley cars
is also very great. TO what extent
this practice is indulged in, Of
course. we cannot tell. but we
know that it is done much more
than is realized by the public. Tins
is particularly true as to foreigners
engaged in mining operations OF
various kinds.
Mr.. McCrea said attention
should be called to the danger OF
allowing children to walk on rail
road rights Of way. lie also
pointed out the need for explain
inc the law and regulations III
reference to carrying explosives
on passenger trains and trolley
cars. or placing them in trunks OF

AN UNFORTUNATE ISSUE,

1T is unfortunate that such issues
should be raised in the public schools as
in the Lena Eyler case; but since the
flag stands for the schools. for order,
and for all the safeguards and advan-
tages of American life and opportunity,
those who fail in respect to the flag also
fail in sensing the position of them
selves toward the school which is open
because the flag puts it there. protects
it, and through it offers free and impar-
tlal opportunities TO all children of
school age. No flag, no school; an ele.
mentary proposition which cannot be
argued down or evaded, And the spe.
cial function of the school is to train
the pupils to be good American citizens,
not aliens to the republic, nor foes to
the flag and the institutions which that
flag represents. Those who fail in re.
spect to the flag are in opposition to the
government; and they are not in svn.
pathy with those things which the flag
stands for, and so, logically, they should
care nothing for the schools, or the adj
vantages offered therein. For, why
should any one condemn the flag and
yet seek advantages which that flag of.
fers? 1t is not fair to deuounce the
flag. while enjoying the advantages that
come through the protection of the flag

WHY STUBBS'S RAGE?

We notice that Governor Stubbs of
Kansas is out in a hot denial that the
Republicans in Kansas are disfran
chised through the vicious manipula
tions of the Progressive party in that
State, which is in control of the cleo
tion machinery. Governor Stubbs
points out that the Roosevelt electors
have voluntarily withdrawn from the
Republican column, leaving the vacan-
cies to be filled with Republican elec.
tors. This. of course, is the only hon.
est. decent thing to be done.
But since Governor Stubs is hand.
in'glove with Governor johnson of
California, where the Republicans are
actually disfranehised by the usurpa.
tion Of Roosevelt electors in place of
Republican electors on the official bal.
lot. how does it happen that Stubbs
so botlv resents the charge that Kansas
Progressives are rascals on the basis
that the Republicans are disfranchised

ALWAYS THE SAME RUIN.

President Taft again admonishes the
voters of the United states against the
peril Of clcctipg the Democratic candi-
dates, taking this time for his text, the
production Of sugar. In all these warn
ings received from the President, this
one being the third, there is found sub
stance quality, and patriotic fcTvor.
That the Democratic attitude has not
changed in the least on the tariff ques-
tion since the time when President
Cleveland was the Democratic candidate
sixteen years ago, is evident from a
comparison Of the Democratic platform
of that year on the protective principle
with the Democratic platform Of the
present year upon the same subject. We
reproduce the two side by side, so that
the public can have no doubt as to the
Identical meaning of both The two
platform declarations as to protection
arc as follows.

ASKING HELP ABROAD
