 From Secretary Tegehoff, of the Hartman estate, is desired informal ton regarding the gathering by Har- rman of $250,O0O campaign fund for Colonel Roosevelt in 1904. If he gives no testimony on that point, Chairman Clapp, of the probing com mittee, has announced that Mrs. Har- riman would probably be called.

THE OFFICE SEEKING DISEASE.

The Bentonvile Sun submits these pertinent observations upon the curse of office-seeking thirst: Enough is known of the returns of Mondays election to know how matters stand in poor old election ridden Arkansas. Some tasted, for the first time, the bit ter waters of salt creek. To the un- successful campaigner defeat is step nearer the goal. He says "Ill have better luck next time' and takes up the burden of life where it laid down in the race for political job that ill nine times out of ten is worse than an empty honor. And that brings us to| the point we want to stress. Arkansas has too many elections, too many men ready to be sacrificed on the altar of their tountys or states interest. Be- fore the results of the last election were known, there were from two to ten avowed or dark horse candidates grooming themselves to make the race next time for every one of the offices filled on September 9th.
 "At least eighty-five per cent of the aspirants have no special fitness for the honors they seek. Running for office is passion our great state. It is getting to be menace. It is wastful energy and positively wicked, Out of the 2500 state and county army elected on September 9th at least l500 of them could not earn half the sal ary attached at anything else to save them from perdition.
 Running for office is a disease, and once it fastens itself on young man he is doomed. It is vanity, van- ity. Avoid it, young man. Learn to do something, to be something worth while, something worthy of your tai ents. Do not compromise your man hood and blast your hopes by entering tie lists of so-called political honors.
 'An election similar to the recent one is two years off, and yet there are, as we say, from two to ten aspirants, many of whom have already announc- ed themselves as going to try for the places.
 "Think of the waste, the heart aches, the wire pulling that it means The smoke of one battle not cleared away before another is planned.
 "Congressman Flood is not yet elect ell to his last term, as ne calls It, ana vet there are some five or SIX avoW- cd candidates sor the scat he an nounces will be vacant. It is worse than pitiful, it is disgraceful. Such state of affairs takes up the time, thd thought, the energy of vast army of the hest men CT the commonwealth Some seven or eight thousand Of our supposedly pest citizens bending ev- cry energy, taxing every nerve, to get scme crumb of the political pic-lt IS hecoming a menace. Then the eX- nensc of the thing. One goverhof7 elect spending three times the salary of the office before he gets it. Time to call halt"
