DECIDE NOT TO
GUST HODGES

Little Rock, Sept 6.-The County
Campaign Committee decided not to
institute quo warranto proceedings to
Dust Dr.. E. E. Hodges, election com
missioner, as the acts of which they
complain, the appointment of judges,
has been consummated, and could not
be set aside. Hodes, one of the Dem
ocratic members, and Campbell, the
Republican, turned down list of
judges proposed by county central
committeeman and endorsed by the
county candidates, and appointed 9TH
err judges. No imputation has been
brought against the integrity of the
judges named.
Congressman Robinson and his
friends consider the act of the two
commissioners as a slap to him, and
in consequence he has cancelled his
dates for today and tomorrow, and
will come to Little Rock to help out
the local situation. The committee
has decided to bend all it's energies
toward getting out full vote in Pu-
laski county. A big rally was held
last night in the court house park,
addressed by Bob Rogers and eLwis
Rhoton. Mr.. Robinson spoke last
night at Leslie, and tonight will
speak at the Chamber of Commerce in
Little Rock, closing his campaign here
instead of at Hot Springs. The ac-
ton of Commissioner Hodges has
come in for much adverse criticism in
| speeches made here.

RELIEVING DETROIT RIVER.
Livingstone Channel, Costing $10,.
000, 600, to Be Opened Today.

DETROIT, Mich, October 19.-The
formal opening of the n-million-dollar
Livingstone channel. in the lower Detroit
river. is scheduled for this afternoon The
program of ceremonies. under the auspices
of the Lake Carriers Association, includ-
ed a parade of lake craft headed by the
steamer William Livingstone piloted by
its owner. William Livingstone, presiden,
Of the association. The new channel is
on the west side of Bois Blanc Island
starting near the head of the island and
extending out toward Lake Erie. The
upper end of the cut was constructed by
means OF a cofferdam which held the
water back while men dug and blasted in
the channel bottom as though on dry
land. The greater part of the work
however. was done 'in the wet"
The channel required four years and a
half to build. 1t will provide separate
passage for up and down bound boats
thus relieving the narrow Lime Kiln
crossing. with its rock banks, tortuous
turns and swift current, OF half the
traffic.
