 Little Rock, July At is ex- pected that Col. Roosevelt will come to Arkansas to make six speeches for Col. George w. Mur- phy, the Progressive candidate for governor, between now and July 23, when the election is to be held. He will probably speak at Little Rock, Fort Smith, Pine Bluff, Hot Springs, Texarkana and Helena. Col. Murphy has gone actively into the field cam paigning, and will make almost a speech day from now until the election. There has yet been no animation of a probable Jolnt canvass of the state, which IS improbable, although some o1 the four candidates may occas- ionally get together.

A Burning Shame.

l refer to the practice 0f our officers in letting vile men stand or our streets and swear the vil- est 0aths. Our wives and daurh- ters cannot go down Front street without being insulted. Today 6 man was standing on the street swearing and an officer % was sitting about fifty feetaway. l approached said officer and ask ed him if he would arrest 6 man for swearing on the streets. He said, in part: No, We have never been required 70 enforce that law. If We did enforce it, we would have to arrest q part of our council
 A councilman who will swear is unworthy of the office and should be arrested. It is as wrong to swear, mean take Gods name in vain, as it is to steal. But we will never succeed in teaching our children so, is long as our officers swear in pub lie and permit others to do the same. God said: Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain" Ex. 20:7 and he said this before he said: "Thou shalt not steal' too.
 It is one of the most useless, worthless, sinful, and vile habits a man ever formed, and inno- cent people ought to be protected from such wretch. Here is for a clean town.

BRlNkLfY MEN
 BADLY INJURED
In Collision Occurring During 100-Mile Auto Race
 On Fourth.

Memphis, July ]. Jack Ha1pe, mecha17ician, was proba- bly fatally hurt, and Don Grant. driver, seriously injured when Marnoon car No. 16 in which they were riding at 8 rate of 56 miles an hour in the 100-mile auto race, crashed into Chalmers car No. 9, Of J. E. C. Cook, which was standing and being filled with gasoline at the south end of the grand stand. Both injur- ed men are from Brinkley, Ark. The two automobiles were thrown into r9idair and the two men hurled from their seats.
 In an instant the grandstand and grounds with 5000 specta- tors present were thrown into pandemonium. Cook, who was standing alongside his car, had a miraculous escape from death.
 The Mar,non car spun around three times, and when it finally stopped, badly wrecked and mi nus Q wheel, Harpe was found pinned under a rear axle.
 Harpe and Grant were picked up by fellow workers. The i'm mense crowd, held mortified for a minute, started to rush across the track in front Of the cars sweeping down the course, be- fore waiting anbulances, held for such an emergency, could get to the two injured men.
 The police, with drawn clubs, pushed and showed the panic stricken spectators Of1 the course. The automobile ambu- lances in which the two men were placed then began race for life to St. Joseph's hospital. At the hospital both men were reported conscious, but badly in- jured. Harpe, who seems the worst hurt, may have internal :: injuries. The entire staff of in- ternes of the institution are at- tending the two men.
 c. V. Dunivan, driving a Stude- baker, won the 1OO-mile automo- bile race. The race started at 2::5O o'clock and Dunivan flashed across the tape at 5:25 o'clock winner.

The First Fourth.

More than a year had passed since the epoch-making day at Lexington and Concord. For the colonists it had been year of feverish anxiety and activity. Ticonderoga and Grown Point had been taken. Bunker Hill had claimed it's 1,60O dead. Wash ington had taken command of the patriot army. The British had been driven out of Boston.
 Yet the colonies were still bound together with but Q rope of sand. The thought of final |separation from the mother country, of permanently relin- quishing the privileges of Brit ish citizenship, was by no means popular. There still was hope that the wrongs of the colonlsts might be redressed. The Tories, great in numbers, in wealth and influence, would not listen to the talk of separation. The Quakers and Moravians were opposed to war as sinful, and would con- . tent themselves with such re- dress as might be obtained through renonstrance. Others, willing to go to any extreme where there was chance Of suc- cess, could see no hope.
 The continental congress dis cussed the question long and keenly. On the 7th day of June resolution had been introduced declaring, That the United Col onies are and ought to be free and independent" Seven colo nies had voted for it; six voted against it. Greater unanlm'ty was indispensable.
 All through the June the de- bate was waged. Then came the great day-July 4, 1776. The dlepates took their places early in the morning, and the doors were closed. It was decided to remain in session until the issue should be settled one way or the other. Three millions of people waited.
 "Clang!" The big bell in the dome of the hall spoke sharply. The locked doors were thrown open and the delegates came pouring out with faces flushed but jaws set.
 "Clangw The sound rang out again, and with it's music mixed a vast roar of cheers from the streets.

be punished for contempt, but the attorneys for Col. Brundidge declined to go that far in the case.
 Should the supreme court up- hold the chancellor, there will be much doubt as to who should have been the nominee of the Democratic party, and the court will indicate it believes there was ground for the charges filed by Col. Brundidge. This would mean that the friends of Col. Brundidge, alleging that he had been defrauded out of the noni- nation, will get real busy urging that his name be placed on the ticket. With the Bull Moosers importing nation wide talent. and having strong candidate in the field, who is familiar to the voters in every section of the state because of his years as a leader in the Democratic party, and the Stand Pat Republicans also active, it means an united Democracy is necessary to jn- sure victory.
 To further complicate matters, hundreds of people, who are dis satisfied with the last election, believing where there is so much smoke there must be some fire, have expressed a deternina- tion to write the name of Acting Governor J. M. Futrell on the ticket. Being a senator elected to serve term of four years, Acting Governor Futrell could not continue in the office even though he received a majority Of all votes cast. It would, how ever, reduce the vote of the Democratic candidate, or candi- dates, and increase the chances of the half or whole republicans.
 This rule requiring the candj- date elected to receive a majori- ty of all votes cast works all in favor of the Republicans. They will probably unite on one candi- date, and let the other be mere fgurehead. If there is opposi- tion among the Democrats it means a battle to the death. In case the leading candidate does not secure majority of all votes cast, then Acting Governor Futrell will continue until the matter is settled. There are many who are willing that no majority ever be received by one of the avowed candidates.
