'C. 0. P. NOMINATE
HARRY Il. myers
NOMINEE OUT OF STATE
TO ENDORSE PRO-
GRESSIVE NOMINEE
IS VOTED DOWN.

Little Rock, July 2.-The Repubi-
can party of Arkansas held con-
vention in Little Rock Tuesday after
noon and nominated Harry H. Meyers
as the regular gubernatorial nominee
to bow his neck under the yoke AMI
sacrifice himself to the capse. 1t was
supposed that the Republicans woulc
endorse Geo. w. Murphy, the Bull
Moose candidate, but when a resolu-
ton of that character was offered, it
was Immediately voted down. The
resolution was that there be no nogni-
lee, but it was met with disfavor, so
the nomination of Harry II. Myers
followed.
The nominee of the party is now
out of the state, and though he is re-
duested to make a thorough canvass,
it is doubtful if he will make more
than few speeches. The convention
declared in favor of vigorous cam
paign and to organize the forces in
the various counties, but this is con-
sidered a scheme of the leaders to
participate in the Democratic CAM
paign and the rank and the file is not
expected to follow the lead.

MFTH0D|STS PLAN
REVIVAL SERVICES
TO Be HELD UNDER TENT
! MEETINGS WILL BEGIN IN THE
COURTHOUSE PARK, SUN
DAY, JULY 6.
FroN Saturdays Daily.


Rev. E. R. Steel, pastor of the Con-
way Methodist church, announced to-
day that revival meeting will be con-
Quoted under a tent to be located in
the courthouse park beginning Sun
day, July 6, to continue for two weeks.
Only the evening services will be held
under the tent, and day services, if
any are held, will be at the Methodist
church.
Referring to the meeting Rev. Steel
said today:
In nearly, if not all our churches,
revival services nave been held during
the year. The church-going people Of
our town have had opportunity to at
tend revival services. But we have
many people in our town who do not
attend our churches very much, if at
all. Some of these people we are told
are free to attend church under a tent.
In order that our entire city may be
evangelical during the year We are
planning this meeting. 1t is not SIM
ply for the people who do not attend
church, but for all The people who
may care to engage in christian work.
"Most Of the pastors have been alb
sent from the city since we have
planned this meeting, consequently
they have not been consulted. They
are most cordially invited to be pres
ent and to take part in the movement.
We shall also be pleased to have all
the Christian people of Conway wor-
ship and work with us. The Method
lists have planned the meeting, but not
with reference to the proclamation of
any peculiar or particular creed. We
want Christ and Him crucified
preached to the people.
I'VE are not partial to tent meet
iings. We believe that every year or
so in all towns of this size and larger
there ought to be special effort made
to push the gospel out into every nook
aand corner-into the byways and
lhedges-that all the people may be
without excuse. The tent belongs to
Mr.. G. E. Owen of the Baptist church,
and it is through his kindness and in
terest in this work that we are pro-
vided with such comfortable quarters
| The preaching and the singing will be
zone by the people of Conway. If
Conway needs a great religious move
ment for the saving and toning up of
its people is ought to come through
the followers of Jesus Christ who live
here If the work needs to be done we
ought to do it. We ought not to see
the need and go on about our daily
tasks and hire some professionals to
come in and do it for us. May the
blessings of God be upon this move
ment"

led and gray-headed farmers will
doubtless be pupils, will consist of lec-
lures, discussions and answers to
Questions by members of the Univer-
|sity agricultural faculty, who are rec
ognizede experts in their RESPECTIVE
lines. Prof. w. C. Lasseter, assistant
agronomist in the University, writes
Mr.. Parlier that the strongest force
|of lecturers ever sent out will appear
'at Conway.
Among the subjects upon which lee
lures will be given are the following:
Cotton, corn, soils, fertilizers, straw
berries, peaches, cantaloupes, alfalfa,
general forage crops, live stock, pea
nuts, silos, Irish potatoes, sweet pota-
toes, hog cholera, army worms, cut
worms, bud worms, wire worms, and
injurious insects.

PROF BULLION TO RUN.

Prof. ]. T. Bullion of this city has
informed the Log Cabin Democrat
that he intends to make the race for
county clerk before the next Demo-
cratic primaries, and that his an
nouncement for the position will ap-
pear at the proper time. Prof. Bull
lion formerly held this office, retiring
about six years ago, after serving two
terms. He is an ex-Confederate SOL
der and has for many years taught
in the public schools of Faulkner
county, and perhaps enjoys as wide an
acquaintance throughout the county
as any other of its citizens.

GOOD PROGRESS
MADE BY COTTON
CROP Is IN fINE,| SHAPE
GENERAL RAIN is NEEDED
HOWEVER, SAYS MEMPHIS
PAPERS REPORT.

Memphis, June 3O.-The CONNER.
cial Appeals weekly summary of cot
ton crop conditions says today:
There has been an improvement in
the crop since May 25, estimated at
l2.7 points, and using the government
condition report of June as basis
the condition of the crop as of date
June 25 is placed at 81.8 per cent of
normal.
The weather for the past week has
been favorable and good progress was
made all over the belt. Plant is grow
ing rapidly in most sections and made
up to a small degree the lateness that
has characterized it. Although still
somewhat late, the plant is sturdy and
healthy all over the belt Half-grown
bolls are reported from San Antonio
Tex, and blooms have been found as
far north as Shelby county, Tenn.
There is much need of moisture in
the central belt, and unless rains come
this week considerable damage will
result. However, the plant is being
made to hold up well against drouth
by the state of cultivation, which may
be termed extraordinarily good, and
If a general rain visits the central
belt this week all damage will be
overcome. Local showers fell in scat
tered localities all over the belt dur
ing the week and relieved the drouth
in many sections, but a general rain
is badly needed in the central belt and
would not hurt in all states, except in
few localities in the Carolinas.
There is complaint of boil weevil
from a constantly widening area, but
tht damage done so far is reported to
be nominal, and in many sections of
Mississippi and Louisiana the farm
ers have almost rid the fields of the
pest by picking them and the puntur-
ed squares and burning them.

NOTED AGRICULTURISTS ARE
PRESENT AND MADE TALKS
AT FAIR GROUNDS.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
One Of the largest gatherings of
farmers ever assembled in Faulkner
county was present today to hear
speeches by a number of agricultur-
lists from the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. The meeting
was arranged by Special Agent John
w. Parlier Of this county
The speakers were met at the sta
ton by number of citizens and taken
in automobiles to the Iron Mountain
demonstration farm, one mile south Of
Conway. Returning to the fair
grounds at 1890, the address of well
come was delivered by Mayor W. H.
Duncan. In very forceful manner
Mr.. Duncan spoke of the improve
ments in farming since the inaugura-
ton of the scientific method, and stat
ed that it is only a matter of time be-
fore all successful farming will be
done scientifically.
Mayor Duncan was followed by w.
B. Mercier, assistant agriculturist Of
Washington, D. c., who spoke on ger
eral farm improvements and the in
terest in the demonstration work.
Commissioner John H. Page of Lit
tie Rock was the next speaker. His
subject was Improvement in Stock
IT, Of no npnoccIfU
of raising more and better stock, and
of raising more hay and corn. He said
that a farmer who had to buy his hay
and corn would never be successful.
Miss Emma Archer of Little Rock,
representative of the Pulaski County
Girls Canning Club, made an address
in behalf of the girls canning clubs
of the county. She stated that much
interest is being manifested in the
work, and that great amount OF
good is resulting from the various
clubs of the state.
State Agent C. w. Watson spoke on
the condition of the soil, and Of the
preparation of the seed-beds. He
said that this is one Of the essentials
of scientific farming.
Prof. ]. Nj. Wilson OF the Univers-
ity of Arkansas discussed the plan for
the extension school, which will be
held here in August. Prof. W. S.
johnson Of the University was also
present, but did not make speech.
Owing to the change in the schedule
of the Kansas City-Hat Springs train,

Little Rock, July 2.-After a fiery
session lasting all morning, the State
Democratic Central Committee, by a
vote of 19 to s, certified George W.
Hays as the Democratic nominee for
governor.
No ballots or poll books were re-
ceived from any contested county ex-
Icept Ouachita, and the returns from
the latter were not accompanied by a
certified list of the poll taxpayers.
The Brundidge forces will now ap-
ply to the Pulaski chancery court for
a restraining order to prevent Secre-
'tary of State Hodges from placing the
name of Judge Hays on the official
ballots. # the injunction is granted,
there will be no printed names on the
ballot except those Of the Republican
and Progressive nominees, and it will
be necessary to write the name of the
Democratic nominee on the ticket.

was just as it had been reported by
the election officials, 1926 for Judge
Hays and 50 for Mr.. Brundidge.
A majority report signed only by
the Brundidge men on the committee,
asserted that the first ward of Cam
den and in five townships the sigma
lures of the judges of election does
not correspond with the initials ap-
pealing upon the several ballots re-
turned in the respective townships.
The Brundidge men were unable to
determine, they said, whether the bal
lots exhibited are the same as those
cast by the electors Of Ouachita coun-
! ty.
Immediately after the unanimous
report was read and accepted, W. F,
Coleman of Pine Bluff, leader of the
Hays forces, offered for adoption the
following resolution:
Resolved, That it is the judgment
and finding of this committee that the
charges by the Hon. Stephan Brun-
didge in his contest herein, to the eff
feet that there was any fraud in
the effect that there was any fraud in
counting or canvassing the vote for
governor in the late primary in Qua
chita county, is wholly without foun-
dation and wholly unwarranted."
The Brundidge men opposed the ad-
mission of the resolution, but they
were voted down by the Hays major
/ ity on the committee 10 to 6. With
out loss of time Mr.. Coleman then
presented this resolution:
ain the interest of harmony and
party loyalty, be it resolved, that the
contestee be requested forthwith to
file a pledge agreeing that they will
abide by the decision of this commit
tee."
This resolution was taken TO mean
that crisis is at hand and politicians
predict tn committee will certify
Judge Hays as the Democratic nom
inee tomorrow.
