STRONG FOR ROBINSON.

Governor Joe T. Robinson certainly has two strong supporters for the U. s. Senate in Mayor James L. Scott and Mir w. w, Campbell, assistant cashier of the Bank of Eastern Ark ansas, of this city Both of these gentlemen have spent the pa.t two week-ends in Little Rock in consulta- tion with the Robinson forces, and returning home Monday evening re- ported every indication decidedly favorable to their friends chances for victory.
 With reference to the visit of these gentlemen to the capital re- cent issue of the Arkansas Democrat had the following report;
 Mayor James L. Scott of Forrest City who is in Little Rock today, ac. companied py W. W. Campbell, assis- tant cashier of the Bank of Eastern Arkansas, and others from Forrest City, declared that sentiment in his county is for the election of Governor elect Robinson to the United States Senate.
 Il believe the people of St Francis county are in favor of MT Robinson being sent on up to the senate al once. There has been some talk tC the contrary, but l don't think it 1 signifies much. We believe that MT Robinson will make a good senator and is qualified 10 go right into the work. i"
 The same sentiment was expressed by MT. Campbell, who declared he had heard nc little discussion of Inc matter ana that. so far as he could learn, Robinson's election was desired in the county.

'--'i----------7------ Let's Get This.

There will be strong effort made by Forrest City poultry fanciers to have the National Poultry Associa- tion establish poultry experimental station in this city in the very near future. At present there are only two members of the National Poultry Association in Forrest City, viz, Mir. Thos. O'Brien, proprietor of the Palace Marker, and Dr. L, II Mer- Tilt Speaking of the possibility of getting an experimental poultry station established here, the former gentleman said to Times represen- tative recently, that Forrest City was ideally located for such an enterprise and that if more of our chicken cranks would become members of the national association, such course would have it's weight in landing ar enterprise of this character. If you are interested and waLt some inside information about what is necessary to get an experimental poultry sta tion for Forrest City, talk to Tommie O'Brien or Dr. Merritt.

SENATOR ROBINSON. THEN WHAT?

The opening of the final struggle in the United States senatorial con- test takes place in Little Rock on next Tuesday before the Arkansas legislature. No contest within the history of the state has attracted such widespread interest. Tue friends of the varlouS candidates are now gathered at the capital and have taken last desperate stand in this fight in which there has been much wire pulling. diplomacy and political skirmishing resorted to by the seyer- al candidates From this distance it looks as if Robinson has the situation bottled up pretty tight. We do not know what promises, if any, the gov ernor has made in keeping his forces So perfectly organized, but somehow we have a premonition, that some thing is surely going to pop after the battle is over and the smoke has cleared away, and we have just been wondering if some of our friends will not find themselves in the same atti- tude as the man who is left to hold the sack when the boys go ''snipe'' hunting. Of one thing The Times is quite certain, if Robinson is the choice of the Arkansas legislature, it will precipitate one of the bitte rest political battles ever witnessed in Arkansas in electing man to succeed i Robinson in the governors chair.
 There is too much politics in Ark ansas already and the taxpayers should not be called upon to bear the expenses of a special election. We'll
 we shall see what we shall see.

ROBINSON LOSES EITHER WAY.

The editorial in The Times last week about Gov. Robinson keeping 'hands off'' the senatorship, has been enthusiastically endorsed by many citizens, male and female. The editor has been highly commended and com plimented upon the sentiment eX- pressed therein.
 We have not consulted the politi- clans on this subject, and do not know if it suited them or not. It was dictated by our own idea of what Governor Robinson owes the people who gave him such a great compli- ment in electing him to the high and distinguished oEfice of governor.
 It is not that we aDpOse Governor Robinson in his ambition to go to the Senate: such an am bition k commend able ill any man who seeks honestly to serve tue best interests of the peo pie, bat the people believe, and have expressed their belief it the polls, that Governor Robinson can best serve them as governor, and believing >o, they gave him an overwhelming majority.
 We believe Gov Robinson's real friends want him to serve them at least two years as governor, but there is ever, indication that he will dis regard the wishes of the messes, and seek the senatorship, in fact, he is in the race, and the papers say he has cinch.
 Il he is elected, it means another heated campaign for a goNernor-one that will cost the people lots of money and engender more animosi- ties.
 It is really too bad that Gov. Robin son has been led to make this race, and thereby. whether he wins or loses, lost the confidence of those who sup port him in his race fer governor. But such is politics.

Diggs leaned forward and coached
his lawyer, and always his eyes rest

so deep that it seemed incredible that
he had once ardently wOOed her and
that she had entered life of shame

Marsha Warrington had to admit
that she had visited the home Of

his wife. That she had spent night

whether she had gone with him to
Stockton in January, she pust whis-

Even the fact that she was intro

name by a salOonkeeper named AUS

houses was dragged from her.
And then the attorney for the de-
Tense started to probe beneath the
outer layer Of decency and he forced
the girl to tell not only her minutest
actions, things that even her low
girlish voice could not rob of their
Obscenity, but he made her tell Of
emotions what she thought on this
occasion, what she felt on that.
She looked at him pleadingly once
and did not answer. But the judge
ruled the question in order and again
she studied the toe of her shoe and
whispered her reply.
In Reno she and Diggs had oc-
cupied one room, Caminetti and Miss
Norris another. They were in the
