JUDGE JAS. A. LEA
 FOR COUNTY CLERK

In this issue of the Log Cabin Dem- Dcrat appears the formal announce ment of James A. Lea of Cadron township as a candidate for re-elec- tion as county and probate clerk of Faulkner county, subject to the ac- tion of the Democratic primary. Judge Lea is too we'll known to the people of this county to need an intro- duction through the columns of this paper. He has served in various county offices, and it is no more than fair to state that Faulkner county has never had an officer who has worked more faithfully to please the people and to accommodate them in every way possible than Judge Lea. In his various campaigns he has al- ways had opposition, yet since his first race he has never been defeated and his majorities have usually been very large. He has a strong follow ing throughout the county, and it goes without saying that he will make a vigorous campaign.

MANY VISIT FALL
 MILLINERY OPENING

The formal autumn opening of Mrs. Cooper Hinton's millinery shop occurred this morning, and through out the day vast throngs of ladies have visited this establishment, view ing the new creations in ladies' head wear.
 -, In this artistically arranged de- partment Mrs. Hinton is showing real Paris creations, as we'll as many "Americanized" ideas in millinery. The touch of gold appears very ef- fectively on the beautiful mahogany and brown hats as we'll as the black ones, with upstanding trimmings in the back are much in evidence. Where feathers are used they extend back rather than up, continuing the elongated idea which is rather strong in the new hats. Hats of Velour De- Laine, the same material as the smart suits, are very good for street wear, while velvets, plush and velour make up the most of the hats for real dress wear The prunelle, a first cousin to the old-time plum shade, is a favorite color in milli- nery, and on woman of good con- plexion the effect is very stunning.
 Everything in millinery for this season is medium-sized, and for the
 woman who has not discarded her rats, the styles are rather trying, from the fact that they find it diff cult to place the new hats at the proper angle for becomingness. Mrs. Hinton has made for herself coterie of customers among the women of Conway who look to her every season to prvide their millinery wants. To this end, she is making her two days opening the occasion for displaying splendid array of
 hobby millinery.

OUR FAIR IS FAR
 ABOVE AVERAGE
SAYS THE BILLBOARD"
FAULKNER COUNTY ENTER PRISE IS ATTRACTING MA
 TIONAL ATTENTION.

That the Faulkner county fair is gaining wide reputation as one of the best county fairs in the country IS evidenced by the fact that the "Blllboard,' the largest magazine published, devoted exclusively to amusements, published, in it's current issue, a story about the fifth annual | fair, which will open here October r. The story, as it appears in the Bill board,' follows:
 The Faulkner County Day and Night Fair, which takes place at Conway, Ark, October 2, 8, g and 10, 1913, promises to be the biggest and best ever held there. Contracts have been closed with the Blanche McKin- ney Racing Combination for their free acts and show for the entire week and as the Clifton Kelley Shows will be there with all their riding de- vices, shows, free attractions and concessions, the midway end of the fair IS bound to be better than any, thing of the kind ever attempted by the association. L. c. Kelley, of the Clifton-Kelley Shows, made trip from north of Chicago to Conway to investigate local conditions before contracting, and states that the grounds reserved for the midway and the lighting arrangements are away ahead of the average county fair. Three hundred cloth banners, two thousand tack cards and over l. 800 sheets of fair and carnival paper are being used to advertise the fair. J. A. King has been appointed gen. eral manager of the fair and is de- ! voting all his time to it"
 Manager King this morning sent number of men out through this and adjoining counties to advertise the fair. Thousands of Autographs. circulars and other advertising para phernalia are being distributed among the country folk, and never before was county fair in Arkan- sas so we'll advertised! With the at- tendance of thousands of people ev- cry year, exhibits that win first prizes at the state fair, one of the best race courses in the south and many other features, nothing can keep the fifth annual fair from far eel psing all others. Manager King Is making preparations for much larger display of farm products than were ever entered. In fact, he ex- poets much larger displays in every department, and with this in view, he is having the exhibit halls enlarged.
 The poultry department is going to attract much attention from outsid- CTS this year. L. B. Pence, superin- tendent of the poultry department of the Faulkner county fair, received a letter today from Dr. L. D. LeGear of the LeGear Stock Medicine Co.,, St. Louis, and one of the largest breeders of White Plymouth Rocks in the southwest, stating that he had purchased silver loving cup and would give it to the member of the Faulkner County Poultry Association showing the highest scoring male, solid colored, any variety. buffs. blacks and whites to compete. This cup must be won two consecutive times by the same breeder before it becomes his property, the winner to have custody of cup until next show. The cup will arrive in a few days and will be on display in down. town show window with all the other cups that this association offers at their fifth annual poultry show.

PIE COUNTER BOTHERS WILSON.

Yesterday President Wilson gave a
practical demonstration OF the appli-
cation Of his new patronage rule to
Senator'S Bryan and Fletcher Of Flor
ida, who called at the White House
TO discuss appointments OF a district
judge and a United States attorney
in the southern district of Florida
The President received them courte-
ously but asked them 10 make their
recommendations to the Attorney
General, -Statesvill Landmark.
Following the election OF Mr.. Will
son to the Presidency he announced
that his administration would be
very Democratic and that there
would be no red tape about gaining
entrance to the White House while he
was the occupant, but that the doors
would stand wide open. The day
after Mr. Wilson took the oath of Of
fee as President he announced TO the
waiting public. which was composed
largely or Democratic office seekers.
that no applicant for office would be
allowed TO go to the White House un-
less he sent for him. This created
great CONSERVATION among the Dem
ocratic committeeman, Senator'S and
Congressman. In order to quell the
wrath of the mob to some extent the
President has made a later statement
to the effect that he will see the Sen
ators and Congressmen about mat
ters of patronage, but still maintains
that all others must stay away.
Either President Wilson changes his
mind very often about certain mat
ters, or some of the Washington
newspaper correspondents should be
sent to reformatory
The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1913-03-13
THE LEGISLATURE.

If the Democratic Legislature,
which has just adjourned, has carried
out a single campaign promise, or has
done a single thing for the State, We
would thank some reader of this pa
per or some citizen of this common
wealth, to point US to that fact. Some
one might think that the bill passed
for a six months public school term
was something to the credit of that
body, but when it is learned that no
provision was made to carry that act
into effect, it will be seen that the &C
ton was hypocriticaI.
In fact, the Legislature was so
reckless in ignoring its campaign
promises for economy, and in Great
ing new Offices and voting appropria-
tons Of money, which they did not
have to appropriate, that the Cover
nor of the State felt forced to send
a special message to that body be-
fore it's adjournment, protesting
against it's course, in which he said
The policy of blindly appro-
priating money, when there Is
no money in. the treasury, and
none in sight, will not do"
What the Governor said was so
wise and simple, that every man in
the State knew the fact before the
Governor stated it; but what is the
Governor and the State going to do
about it? The State treasury had al
ready been bankrupted by the extrav-
agancy and incOmpetency for many
years, which had created nearly a
million dollar deficit in the treasury
This last Legislature has continued
the same ruinous policy, and now
there seems to be no remedy, except
higher taxes or the sale of more
bonds.
