ASSESSMENT IN
 BENTON VERY LOW FARMS ONLY HYPER CENT INVESTIGATIONS OF TAX COM MISSION SHOW STARTLING
 RESULTS.

Little Rock, June 7.-The investiga- tion that is being conducted by the Arkansas Tax Commission into the as- sessed and actual values of the state show some startling results
 The farm lands of Benton county, one of the wealthiest counties of the state, being at only a fraction over IF per cent of the actual value. Very rarely is county assessed over 50 per cent, which the uniform basis the commission is attempting to secure.
 Cross county is assessed at about 63 per cent of it's census value, Monroe county at 43.4 per cent, Perry county at 58 per cent, and Poinsett at 49 per cent. These figures show some of the discrepancies which the commission is laboring to overcome.
 Conway county lands are assessed at 24.2 per cent of the census value, and there are only three or four that appear to be assessed at smaller percentage of actual value. In let
 
 ter to the assessor of Conway county, the commission says:
 "The census of 1910 shows that 70 per cent of the acreage lands of Con- way county is in farms. A farm for census purposes was lands held and used in connection with a farm; for eyamnla if one had tract of 16O acres with a house thereon and five or 10 acres in cultivation, the whole was considered farm.
 "There being 250,612 acres at an av- craze value of with the buildings thereon of $18.74 per acre, aggregat- in farm values $4,698,282. There were assessed in 1910 in the county 356, ,723 acres.

Much interest is already being man. ifested in the big auto and pony voting contest, the details of which were first announced in Thursdays Log Cabin Democrat, and quite a number have already filed their nomination ballots and entered the contest.
 The attractive prizes offered in the contest, being by far the most valuable ever announced in a contest of this character and in county of the popu- lation of Faulkner, have caused many others who have not yet entered to se- riously consider doing so, and the in- dications are that several scores will engage in the contest. If this proves to be the case, it will make the out come all the more doubtful, as there are only a certain number of votes to be issued, and the more candidates among whom these votes are divided, the fewer it will take to win the prizes. Prospective candidates are urged to file their nominations during the first week, if possible, though they may enter at any time during the con- test. Simply clip out from the Log

STRAW VOTE LOOKS

E. F. Edwards, a travelling sales man of this city, says that prospects seem to be bright for big majority for Brundidge in the gubernatorial primary to be held June 21. MT. Ed wards, in company with Judge w. R.. Donham, took a straw vote at Benton few days ago which showed Brun- didge to have a good lead in that city. Ninety-fve voters among the business and professional men of Benton were asked for whom they intended to vote. Of this number six declined to com init themselves, the vote of the remain ing 89 being as follows: Brundidge, 62; Hays, 27.
