Democratic office that is about to be be handed out in this state. It is evident that, if the reports that come from Hot Springs are true, Senators Clarke and Robinson, who believe firmly in party loyalty, are not aware of his recent stand and will un- doubtedly withdraw their support from the Garland county man.
 Mir. Martin is a most capable man. He is a good lawyer and enjoys a fine reputation, but party principle Is involved and it should be given first consideration. President Wilson would not readily approve the selec- tion of man who is said to be of Bull Moose tendencies. The outcome of the recent developments in the district attorneyship contest will be watched in this section with unusual interest by Democrats of the old school.

IS ORE UNDER CITY!

Stuttgart July 23.-The south- western part of Stuttgart has some for lightning and many people believe there is bed of some kind of mineral or ore under the sur face which acts as magnet. Light ming plays more pranks and strikes more places there than ill all the rest of the town combined.
 A few weeks ago the telephone cable was torn to pieces and more than forty phones put out of com mission. This is about the third time this has happened in the same vicinity. A day or so later a mon ster bolt of electricity exploded over that part of town and electric lights and telephones were again put out of order. A few days later two houses were struck and damaged. It is true that hardly storm passes but that there is trouble in this sec tion of the city, and the old saying that lightning is attracted by ores in the earth is finding expression by many, some of whom go so lar as to say it is gold.

\ PARTY PRINCIPLE INyoLyEp

A great howl is going up over the state because of report that has ccnle from Washington that the Ark 'ansas senators had agreed on W. H. Martin, Hot Springs attorney, for appointment to the office of district attorney for the Eastern District of Arkansas. This protest is occasioned by recent rumors that came from Hot Springs to the effect that MT. Martin had abandoned the Democratic party in the recent gubernatorial election and had refused to vote for the party nominee. As result the wires are burning with messages to Arkansas senators at the national capital, urging them to recall their decision and select loyal Democrat for the plum that is soon to fall from the federal plum tree.
 If w, H Martin, who has always beeh regarded asa faithful Democrat and who was only few months ago chairman of the State Democratic Convention, refused to support the Democratic nominee in the recent election. he is unworthy of the biz

 AND THEN JOAN
HOT SPMNGS BANKERS WILL NOT ADVANCE CITY MONEY AT
 THIS TENE.
No Revenue In Site For Next Year and Mayor Fears Bankrupt
 Municipality,

Hot Springs, July 24-That the financial institutions of the city dc not see their way clear to lend the city $30,000 to tide it over until Janu- ary when the annual taxes fall due unless the people petition for saloons next year is evident, according to Mayor J. W. Mc1.endon. At a meet ing called at the office of the mayor last night committee was appoint ed to meet at the Business Men s League this afternoon at 4 o'clock and go over the matter.
 At the meeting last night, all the bankers of the city with the ex- ception of C. x. Rix were present s. E. Dillon, representing the Pub lie Utilities was also there All those present were appointed on the con- mittee.
 The important matter now facing the Board of Public Affairs, is whether these bankers will lend the city the much needed money to run the government until the taxes are due before this petition to establish saloons in the city next year is cir cuiated.
 Saloon licenses bring in about $3O,00O a year and the revenue of the city is not much over that. The financiers say that without the saloon license, the city will not be able to take up the scrip next Janu- ary.
 At the meeting this afternoon the matter of circulating petition for salons will be taken up. It will be handled through the business men. It is said the finalciers will hold off until they see whether the peo- pie vote for liquor.
 Tt looks like unless Hot Springs has the saloon license next January, the city will be bankrupt" said Mayor McClendon. The biggest part of our revenue comes :. from this source and unless we have saloons, this will be gut of; If the people don't petition for 'liauor, the only way to save. the city will be to have the legislature pass an occupation tax law"

Qpon .Kis1 eleCti11 to the governors office, anda 1t also takes pleasure in commehding! the netfocrats of this state on .their good selection and their party loyalty: Judge Hays, practically an unknown in state politics, rose to prominence; from an humble country boy. His rapid rise was, due .solely to high; .;idealszand' 8 fine character. sItis another case of an honorable. life. being rewarded for faithful and loyal service to man and Judge Hays is not a man of display. He, is as plain as an' old shoe, but be- heath his bosom beats a heart as true as steel. Living among the friends of his boyhod days for years he proved his worth and they took the flood at the tide and won fame for him in ap- preciatiOn of his sterling qualities and true devotion to friendships.
 The recent election teaches many lessons. It demonstrated beyond a doubt that Arkansas Democrats can- not be split by dissension. It showed beyond question that men are not big ger than their party and that party
 
 scnal spleen and petty selfishness. Judge Hays honorably received the nomination for governor. He should have been given the certificate and the office and the great mass of Arkansas Democrats were firmly convinced of his sincerity and the fairness of the recent primary election in the counties where fraud was charged with a view to destroying the purpose of the special election.
 Colonel Brundidge has gained no friends by his persistent but unsuc- cessful wrangling. He proved him. self a poor loser and it is hoped that Colonel Harry Myers who showed the lesson taught him will be valua- ble to him in his advancing years. mp" the Bull Moosers. (and that was his main object in making the race) made clean campaign. He spoke in complimentary terms of his opponents and made friends even though he seemed to have failed utterly to make votes for his party. Colonel Murphy in measure, used methods similar to those of disgruntled politician. He went over the state denOuncing Judge Hays and the members of the cen tral comittee, despite the fact that he must have realized that his was a hopeless task. Emile Webber. if he made any speeches for the Socialist cause, apparently made no impression for the Socialist party in Arkansas stands about as much chance o supremacy as Theodore Roosevelt would at Taft golf game.
 Arkansas had passed through an un- pleasant campaign. It was made un- pleasant for the Democrats for they do not as rule tolerate dissension in their ranks. It is hoped that all the ill feeling that was created by the dis appointed Brundidge men will soon disappear and that everybody will work to make Arkansas grow bigger and better and cooperate with Gov. ernor Hays in giving this state an hon est sane and progressive administra tion of it's affairs. And we believe h, will.

the output being placed at $64 ,54, 613,
against SAC, 1865. 1857 in 1911, an increase
of ST. ,199. 326, due to the greater pro
duction and higher value of copper
Most of this increase-$l7, 79s sos may
be credited to the production of Silver

the other counties in Montana was secs
