one mentioned in the foregoing para
graph have reputation for doing on
ly the very highest class work in the
way of interior furnishings.
The main work that bids are re-
quired on is fixtures, as they will con-
stitute large part of the work that
is to be done. especially the work
that will require the most careful fin
ishing and arrangement The inte-
rior will be arranged as neatly and
conveniently under the new system
as could be desired. The idea will be
to make it as thoroughly modern and
effective as is possible at the least
expense.
The remodeling of the corridors
and present office of the city engineer
which will form the new council
chamber under the plans proposed,
will, of course, be done by contract
with local contractors, as this work
can be done very readily here, while
it is necessary to have the other work
done by an out-of-town firm. When
the work once gets under way, it will
not require very much time for its
completion.

CLAIMS He Is
III YEARS OLD

Claiming that he has attained the
age Of Ill years of age, James Wash
ington McClain, a negro who lives
near Mayfiower, was on the streets
this morning, touching" every one he
could get to stop and listen to h IN.
McClain had some credentials to
prove his great age, which consisted
of a scrap of paper, on which some
one had written, This negro claims
he was born in 1901" The old negro
says he was born Is miles from Wasi-
ington, D. c., and was the slave of
Daniel McClain. He says he was a
right smart size boy when de stars
fell" On further inquiry he said he
was eight or 10 years old, when that
event occurred, which was in 1888.
This would indicate the negro is about
SO years old.

STREET WORK and
THE MAYORS OFFICE

AS | stated | would do, IN making
my announcement as candidate for
mayor, | now desire to say something
in regard to the work to be done on
the streets during the next two years
1t is evident to all that there will
be an abundance of this work to be
done during this time. What can
and will be done, depends on the
amount of funds available for this
purpose and the man in charge of the
work. Allow me to say in this con-
meet on, that this street work is the
one and only attractive feature of all
the duties of the mayor, and should
| be elected, it would be my purpose
to give all my time to this work, in
person, that would at all be profitable
and wise.
Any man with common horse sense
and WILL to do CAN do this work.
am not trying to make personal
canvass, because think the people of
Conway ought to be able to size up a
man in IS years. They know whether
am cranky and radical or inclined to
be just and reasonable, consequently
whether or not | am the man who will
serve the best interests of the town.
If, in your Judgment, | VIII do this,
then it is your duty as true citizen
TO vote for me, not from a personal
standpoint, but for your own inter
ests.

as the man who talks to you an hour,

The Log Cabin Democrat this wear
will for the first time since it's estab

issues of its weekly edition in the
month of February. On account of
1912 being leap year, the month has
20 days, and it happens that the first
and last day both fall on Thursday.
the day on which the weekly edition is
published. Reference to a 'perpet-
uap' calendar shows that the month of
February has not contained five
Thursdays since 1872, and that it will
not occur again until 1910. In the
last century there have been two other
years in which five Thursdays occur
red in February, 1916 and 1874.

CONVICT STATE GUARDS
SEARCY AUTHORITIES ASSERT
CIVIL AUTHORITY OVER
OFFICIAL.

Searcy, AIN. 31.-The session of
White county circuit court has ad-
journed. One of the most interesting
cases tried was that of the State VS..
w. C. Bradford, Howard Reed and
jim Latin, which resulted in the ac-
quittal of Bradford and verdict of
guilty as to Reed and Latin.
The defendants were officers of the
state guards at the Beebe encampment
in July, 1911. One of the men had
been summoned as witness in the
circuit court, then in session here, and
failing to appear when wanted, the
court ordered an attachment for him.
The deputy sheriff served the writ on
the man without consulting the Off
GERS, and when it came to the atten-
tion of the officers that the man was
being taken away, they resented and
resisted the process.
They We're indicted by the grand
jury then in session, on charge of re-
sisting an officer, and tried, with the
result stated.
Reed and Latin will appeal to the
supreme court. The case will be
watched with much interest as de-
termining the extent of the civil au-
thority over a milt.aman while on
duty.
