RETURNS ALL IN.

Little Rock, March 30-With the conceding of Davis nomina. tion for U. $. Senator, all the re- suits of Wednesdays primary are now known except for State Auditor and Congressman from Fourth District. J. c. Colquitt and J. M. Oathout are running neck and neck for Auditor, first one ahead, then the other, and the official count will be needed to determine the winner. The same seems to be true in the Fourth District, where J. M. Carter and Otis T. Wingo are both claiming the nomination on face of incomplete returns.

Milwee of Claren- don was defeated for the State Senate. Col. J. E. Hampton, former Railroad Com missioner, was defeated for the Senate. John H.

more becau SC he was privileged to leave in the new capitol stone upon stone as m emorial to the work of his hand while in the public service. And the state will have to come to some mea, sure of revenure reform like the the one for which he stands SD. onser and that did it's part in bringing about his defeat.
 Governor Donaghey has been a builder and a man who has done things. In his years to come-and we hope they may be long-he can have the gratitica- tion of knowing that he did his duty as he saw his duty. AL though he was denied the vindi- cation of the third term that he desired in the governship, his vindication will come, as we be- lieve, in the wholesome satisfac- ion of seeing his works endure and policies of government shown in better light when the dimming mists and clouds of politics have cleared away.

TO PRESERVE OLD STATE HOUSE

Little Rock, March 30-At a meeting of the State Museum Association Friday at the old state house, the purpose of which is to preserve that historic build irg, it was decided to solicit funds to aid in the work, and to appoint committees. The prin' cipal address was delivered by Henry Lee Stoddard, of Stutt- gart. The list was headed with a subscription of S100 by Max Meyer of Little Rock, and MT. Stoddard subscribed $25. MT. Stoddard said;
 To remove a stone or col umn of this grand old editice would be to re-enact the fanati' cal destruction of the temple of Diana or the Alexandrian library It would be blasphemous."

GOVERNOR D0NAGHEY

George w. Donaghey acted as most strong minded and red = blOoded men would have acted when he became a candidate for third nomination for governor of Arkansas. Blocked in his worthy purposes to complete the new capitol and reform the re venue sN stem of the state so that taxation might be made more ca uitable and public expenditures brought within the receipts he appealed to the people.
 They have given their verdict against him. He made the en- mics and aroused the opposition that, in greater or less degree, will be the lot of any man who serves as governor. Some of his good acts were used against him. When he vetoed appro' priations that would only have run the state further into debt he gave opportunity for the host ile accusation to be made that he was opposed for which these ap- propriations were desiged. And there was public talk as though the money was in the treasury. but the governor was opposed to its being spent; whereas the governor wanted to see the money spent, but used the veto because the money was not in the treasury to spend.
 But George w. Donaghey can we'll be content with the honors of two terms as governor; the
