ROOSEVELT rs
BOO MERS
TO MEET
TONIGHT
First Demonstration iii iii
State Takes Place
in Newark.

Roosevelt men from the state over.
and some from across the border. will
tourney to the Kruger Auditorium to-
night to attend the first mass meeting
in New Jersey at which the cause OF
the former President will be expounded
The much heralded March mass
meeting will be held tonight in the
hall that has been the scena OF many
a political rally.
That the managers of the meeting
have Leen active is evidenced by the
.speakers' schedule to deliver addresses.
Three governors and one former gov
ernor are on the list, as also a former
State senator.
The governors are William r
Stubbs, of Kansas; Robert p Bass, of
New Hampshire, and Joseph M. Carey
of Wyoming.
Former Governor Fort and Everett
Colby are the two others listed. The
fact that the colonel has announced
his intention of fighting for the Re-
publican nomination will add interest
to the meeting.
There can be little doubt of the fact
that Roosevelt's Columbus speech,
which has been characterized as the
most radical ever delivered by the
colonel, Is responsible for much OF the
Roosevelt talk throughout the country
1t is believed that the speakers to-
night will refer to this address as
did former Governor Stokes In his
statement Wednesday.
Perhaps never before was there a
meeting of a like nature in Newark
as that scheduled for tonight. 1t is
not a usual thing to have a former
President make fight for the presi-
Dental nomination, and Colonel Roose-
veit's strenuous personality adds zest
to the situation.
Despite the fact that equal suffrage
has not been declared as. yet in New
Jersey, the arrangement committee
makes it a special point to invite
ladies to the meeting.
President Edmund Osborne, of the
Progressive League, is also to be one
of the speakers.

Some of those places where work is

The only mine in the country where

little one in northern Wales, and here
the mining is carried on under police

our report. In order to convince an
outsider of the superiority of any
county along particular line, we
are of the opinion that, if he could
see what other men have done along
la certain line in that county, he
would most certainly give more Gre
dence to what we say about that
county, when citizen in that county
vouches for its adaptability to GER
tain crop.
Your name and address, stating
what you have done, is what we
want. 1t will not take but little
of your time and you will be doing
great service to yourself and your
county. Write Hon. Clay Sloan,
Commissioner of Agriculture, a short
statement of how much cotton, corn,
rice, oats, wheat, etc., you have rais-
ed on an acre and on what type of
soil; how you have succeeded in the
dairy business or any other agricul-
tural activity.
Every new citizen increases the
value of your property. How much
more is the value increased when you
induce man to come into your midst
who is conservative enough to look
before he leaps? The would-be Ar
kansan who appreciates the reference
to what others have done and conse-
quently what he can do, is the man
who would make you desirable citi-
zen.
Do you want good people to come
to your county to become citizens and
help to cultivate and build up your
| idle land? Do you want men who
would make desirable citizens to come
among you and help develop your
natural resources? If so, let US hear
from you.

ASK FARMERS TO
GIVE EXPERIENCES
AGRICULTURAL REPORT
COMMISSIONER APPEALS FOR
FIRST-HAND INFORMATION
FOR HIS BULLETIN.

Little Rock, July 15.-"An appeal
for actual experiences" is made in a
circular letter issued for publication
today by the state department of ag-
riculture. The letter, which is ad-
dressed to the farmers of Arkansas,
says:
There have been so many glowing
descriptions of sublime sunsets and
sparkling rills painted in beautiful
words, and other enthusiastic out
bursts on Arkansas (for example,
"Ghe commonwealth that has been
considered the Ugly Duckling of the
union is proving to be the Swan")
that the hard-headed investor has
been at loss to know whether Ar
kansas is full of real estate boosters
or good substantial private citizens.
TO overcome in part this doubt in
the minds of the prospective citizen,
we propose to furnish him, through
our biennial report, with the 'names
and addresses" of as many of our
successful citizens as is possible, who
are willing to say what they have
actually done, in stock-raising, in
cotton, fruit, truck, corn, oats, pota-
toes, vegetables, grasses, wheat, rye
and every other means by which the
farmer gains a sustenance in Arkan-
sas and how.
We propose to give each county an
impartial and full representation in
