Contest Withdrawn

Chairman Rosewater then announced that the Fourth Indiana district contest had been withdrawn. A motion was made to seat the regular Taft delegates in this district and the vote was unanimous.
 The Thirteenth Indiana district contest was called The Taft delegates were headed by Clement Stakeholder Jr, of South Bend MT Stillwell, appearing for the Roosevelt delegates, headed by Fred w. Keller of South Bend, asked permis- sion to introduce new affidavits He said the Taft chairman of the convention had been chosen by a vote of 7lA to 70s4. He declared he had affidavits from a ma jority of the delegates in the convention that they had voted for the Roosevelt delegates in the convention.
 MT. Dick declared the national commit tee had already repeatedly refused to ad. init new affidavits and objected to their introduction. Senator Borah said he be- lieved the notice of contest filed by the Roosevelt delegates some time ago would entitle Mir Stillwell to introduce the affi- davits.
 Mir. Stevenson of Colorado argued that it would be unfair to the Taft forces to admit the new affidavits at this time.
 The Taft attorneys declared they wanted time if the Roosevelt affidavits were in treduced, to get affidavits on the other side

Dark Corner News.
[Too late for last issue. l

Several reasons why we didn't write last week. First, so much rain we decided to wait. Sec. ond, cyclones and bad roads dis couraged us: and third, Billie Williford's dog has the distemper and his gun is not in working order.
 The writer spent the day at Tod Hendersons Sunday and saw his barn slightly damaged and a few fruit trees distroyed by the wind. Tod says he was not frightened but itmade him mad to see his things damaged was the reason he got under the bed during the storm and came out immediately after the wind ceased to blow.
 Col. K. c. Lynch has had 3 to 1 wagons steady hauling sorg- hum stalks filling the roads so we can now get to Cotton Plant with our vehicles. Wish we had a few more like Lynch in the Corner.
 Dr. w. J. Mathis is ] the hos pital at Little Rock, caused by the collision of two spceders on the R. |. railroad north of Cot ton Plant last week. The Dr. is getting along we'll and we hope to see him back soon with his family and friends.

fellowship prevalent among the entire 150 representative men at the banquet which in itself re- vealed the real cause of Jones' boro's wonderful progress and growth. I have known Jones' boro for many years and can re- member when it was one of the smallest and poorest towns in Eastern Arkansas, whereas to- day it is undoubtedly at the head of the procession of Arkansas real cities.
 Jonesboro has a fine Y. M. C.. A building, a fine sewerage water works and electric plant, fine churches, fine schools, paved streets, etc., and a Mayor and live set of boosters who believe in standing together in the build-
 
 ing of a city.
 The natural beauty and ad. vantages of Brinkley are far in excess to those of Jonesboro. We have men too and they have the means and brains the only thing the matter with Brinkley is that these big hearted, cap able men are standing in their own way and in the way of the making of a city out of Brinkley because of a lack of organized effort.
 Brinkley needs to ''get to- gether," and plan and work to. gether. If the men of Brinkley who would profit most by such an org anization, could but sec the way the live and unselfisf men of other towns are doing things they would soon have a real live organization here.

HOLDING ARKANSAS BACK.

Hundreds, yea thousands of
 rospecton are crowding inte all arts of Arkansas every month nd in nearly every instance hose who go away without in- testing in our lands will tell you: You have no roads and no pros poets of getting any,"
 Many of the northern farmers do not want our fine farm lands at any price for they say that having no roads makes them practically valueless to them. In the north and in those see- tions of the south where the spirit of business progress has led to establish permanent road ways, the farmeSs are the most independent people on earth. In Arkansas, the farmers are the most completely bottled up' class in the state. With perma- nent roads every acre f Arkan- sas lands would double in valu- ation RIGHT NOW: and the greater burden of the tax for these roads would fall on nonresident land owners and corporations.
 Whenever the farmers of the various sections of Arkansas wake up to the fact that nearly every other class in the state are throwing the burden of the read tax on them, and that they, of all others are suffering most by rot having permanent roads. there will ke something dsns.
 The failure to have permanent roads is today the greatest draw back to this, the greatest state in the union.

It was the pleasant privilege of the ARGUS man to be present last week at the regular annual banquet of the Jonesboro Busi- ness Mems Club.

 One of the real delightful sur prises of the evening was the presentation of an elegant fine gold watch to the Club Secre- tarv, Mir. Chas. Gregg. The pi.s was absolutely a surprise as WIS also the very appreciative remarks of President Mason in presenting the token of esteem.

Miners Are Slow to Vote.

London.-The miners are taking far 'ess interest in the ballot to end the coal strike than they did in the ballot which began it. Probably this is be- cause the result is a forgone con clusion. In many districts only about half of the men have voted. This in. difference also probably accounts for the fact that Northumberland, LAhcAs shire and some other districts are vot. Ing against a resumption, only the ir. reconciles take the trouble to vote, However, the aggregate voting 10 largely for return to work.

 The negroes have preaching every Sunday morning and eve- ming at their two churches. We, the white people, have two buildings and never have preach ing. There are children living in the Corner that never heard a minister preach, still we have plenty yellow leg chickens that need killing and we are sure some of them would die if a minister would visit us when the roads get better.
