House to House Canvass

Little Rock, Dec. 3.-The petitions
for saloon license are being systemat-
ically circulated in Little Rock, and
those interested in the retention of the
saloons are confident that they will be
able to secure enough signatures to
insure the issuance of license under
the new law. 1t is estimated that
about 5000 names will be required
in Little Rack A house toulouse can
vass of the city is being made.
The question has not been presented
in any form to the city council of Lit
tie Rock, but the Argenta City Coun-
Gil adopted a resolution requesting
the people to sign the petitions, as the
city needs the revenue. In that city
nearly 5000 signatures have already
been secured, more than enough to in
sure saloon license for that place.
This is being used as one of the
strong arguments in favor of saloons
in Little Rock, that those who want
liquor will go across the river and get
it anyway"
An Anti-License League has been
organized to oppose the issuance of
licenses, and the ministers of the city
are waging an active fight against it.
George Thornburg is president of the
League. As an auxiliary, Woman's
Anti-License League has been organ
lied with Mrs. John Fletcher as Pres
ident.

IMPROVED ROADS IN ARKANSAS

Washington, d. c., Dec. 3.-Every
five years the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, through its Office of Pub
lie Roads, takes census of public
road mileage and expenditures in the
various states. The first census was
taken In 1904, the second in 1909, and
the next one is soon to begin for 1914.
The results of this investigation will
attract nationwide attention.
AS result of the 1909 census it
was shown that twenty-five States of
the Union had less than 5 per cent of
their roads improved and among them
was Arkansas. There were in Arkan-
sas at that time 36,445 miles of pub
lie roads.
Of the total mileage for 1909, 10
miles were reported surfaced with
stone; 537.25 with gravel, and 378
miles with sand clay, making a total
of 1,085.25 miles of improved roads.
There were no sand-clay roads report
ed for 1904. The total mileage OF
improved roads reported in 1904 was
236, which shows a gain of 849.25
miles for the ) year period between
1904-1909.
1t appears from these figures that
2.97 per cent Of the roads in Arkansas
were improved at the close Of 1909,
while in 1904 only 064 per cent were
reported improved, which indicates
gain of 2.33 per cent for this period.
Forty-fve counties reported no inn
proved roads, % counties reported
less than 10 per cent improved roads,
6 counties reported between 10 and
10 per cent improved, while one coun-
ty, Pulaski, reported 6l.23 per cent
improved roads.
While the Department has frequent
ly pointed out the beneficial effect of
good roads on the value of land, the
hauling of crops ana scnool anu
church attendance, improved roads are
also credited with an influence on pop
ulation.
In % counties selected at random
in Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi
Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,
Maine, and Michigan, the population
decreased from 1890 to 1900 at the
rate of 81, 120 per county, or total
for the 20 counties of 7S6,S23. These
same counties showed an average of
1.5 per cent improved roads. In 25
states an increase in population was
shown for the same period of time of
778,3S3, an average of 81 ,905 for each
of these counties were improved.

Judge E. f. Friedell Announces

In our regular announcement col
umn today will be found the name of
Judge E. F. Friedell, of Texarkana.
for circuit judge of this district. We
reproduce below clipping from the
Daily Texarkanian of October %:
There is no more important posi-
ton in the state than that of circuit
Judge, This court has criminal as
well as general civil jurisdiction. To
properly fill this position the Judge
must be man learned in the law.
upright in life and clean in thought
and possess a strong sense of Justice
He must at heart be on the side of
decency, morality and civic righteous
ness.
Judge E. F. Fridell, who has an
nounced as a candidate for Judge of
the Eighth Judicial Circuit, possesses
the above elements of character, and
more, and is eminently qualified for
the position. He is at the age Of
strong manhood, ripe in experience
and sound in Judgment. As a citizen
Of Miller county and a member Of
the TeXarkana Bar for thirty years
his life and character is an open book
to the people Of this section, to whom
he has endeared himself by his up
Brightness and fidelity in all the re-
lations of life. While he is a Demo-
crat, because he believes in the prin-
ciples Of Democracy, he has never
been an unreasonable political parti-
san; but has accorded to everyone the
right of political thought and action
Some years ago at an important
period in the history Of Miller county,
when his services as county Judge
were demanded, at personal sacrifice
to himself, he consented to stand as
a candidate and was twice elected,
rendering the most efficient service
10 the reople of the county. Three
years ago, believing tndt he could 10
of service to the people of this sena-
torial district, he became a candidate
for the State Senate and was elected,
which position he now holds.
AS such State Senator, realizing the
awful blight and curse of the liquor
traffic, he introduced and was instru-
mental in getting the Legislature to
pass a bill, prohibiting the sale of
liquor within radius of ten miles
of Texarkana. He was also active in
securing the passage of Bill No. 118,
which practically gave to Arkansas
statewide prohibition.
The TeXarkanian takes pleasure in
presenting the candidacy of Judge
Friedell, and recommends him to the
other counties of the circuit, with the
knowledge that he is in every sense
we'll qualified for the position, and
who, if elected, will conscientiously
and impartially discharge the delicate
important and onerous duties of the
position, with credit to himself and
with good to the people of the cir
cult

$50, 900 SEIZURE OF
COCAINE is BIG HOAX

San Francisco. April 10.-Eight
hundred pounds of white crystals con-
tanned in four trunks, seized In a ten
derloin hotel, and supposed to be CO.
caine, proved under analysis to be
srystalized sugar cane. Thus dis
solved the "contraband cache" the
wealth of evidence" the $4,000
seizure" and other thing pleasing ton
an ambitious detective, which the
police were happy to believe last night
they had ferreted out. What they do
appear to have stumbled on, though,
is quite the rawest swindle the UNDER
world has known in many year.
All the sugar was put up in drug
gists' bottles, bearing the name of
a Montreal manufacturing chemist,
and labeled Cocaine hydrochloride,
large crystals, highest purity" The
owner evidently planned to impose on
the cravings of drug fiends. Edward
Arlington, who is under arrest, charg-
ed with obtaining money by false pre-
lenses, admits storing the trunks in
the room where they were found, but
denies that he is the owner.

FOUR MORE COME,
TEAM is COMPLETE

With the arrival last evening of
Pitchers Wheeler Osborne and Ralph
Burgess, Thirdbaseman Donald RAIDER,
and Outfielder Varian, Terry Nc
Kune's lineup of Buckarooes is prac-
tically complete. But one more re-
cruit remains to appear, he being
Outfielder Doherty, and he is sched-
uled to arrive today. Thereupon will
commence the real practice work
which will determine the personnel of
the team.
Practically the only elimination
when Is to be done is among the
pitchers and outfielders. Haworth and
Bladen will probably land as first and
second catcher, Lodell, RAIDER and
Augustus are virtually fixtures at first,
third and short and of course Nc
Kune will have no opposition for the
second bag The four pitchers will
be selected from a field of seven or
more. Berger and Osborne, reliables

Doherty and varian, two outfield-
ers released by Nick Williams, and
Cowan are under contract for out"
fielders and one of them will un-
doubtedly be turned loose in a few
weeks as the catcher who Is not be-
hind the bat will probably do duty
in the outfield. All three OF the boys
have regulations as fast fielders and
good hitters so that the race between
them promises to be interesting.
Osborne, who came in last evening,
has been working out a month and
states that his arm is in fine conditi-
Ion. Fans do not have to take his un-
supported word for 1t because his
performance at Grants Pass Tuesday
against the Portland Colts will testify
to his condition. Pitching for the
Grants Pass team, he held Nick Will

for nine innings. He retired In the
tenth and the game was won In that
inning by the Colts by to score
RAIDER has played in only one game

he Is here.

FIVE ATTEMPTS TO
BURN "Y" BUILDING

Council Bluffs, Iowa, April TO-
The fifth attempt to destroy the Y. NJ.
c. A. building by fire was made. The
blaze was extinguished in time to pre-
vent any serious damage. The secre-
tary in making his rounds discovered
the fire in the attic. Some one had
poured linseed oil over the floor and
then ignited it. There is no clue.
1t became known that the fourth
attempt within three weeks to destroy
the Y. NJ, G, A. building was made last
Sunday night. A portion of basement
of the building is used as lodge room
by the Grand Army Of the Republic.
Late Sunday night the watchman dis
covered that every gas jet in this
room had been opened except one
which was lighter and turned low.
Three other attempts have been
made to burn the building which Is
valued at 100000, There is no clew
to the incendiary.
Twenty two young men hase sleep
ing apartments on the upper floor of
the building.
