there are any. but II Is better to get
one without cracks. Purchase a bot

when thoroughly dry line the box
with cambria. Cover the outside with

PROTECT PUBLIC HEALTH.

Meningitis is raging in Northeastern Arkansas towns and West Tennessee. Many cities and towns have establish ed a strict quarantine against the in- fected points. While there is no dan ger of spread of the dreadful dis ease to this immediate section, it would not be unwise for the city of ficials to give the territory running along the ravine in the Eastern part of the city thorough cleaning at this time. There is said to be much un- healthy substance along the soggy banks of the ravine, owing to bad drainage and an accumulation of mat ter that breeds disease and enaangers public health. The stench, according to residents along the banks of the ditch, is unbearable. The Board o1 Health should investigate condition; there without further delay.

His meteoric career back i'll the hills of Arkansas, where he was spurred on to say things and do things over. which he himself afterwards express ed regret, had been forgotten and he was destined to perform a more admir- able service for his people when death ended his public career.

 Because the friends of Governor elect Robinson desire to see him in t.e office for several years at least, shifts the probable selection of a United States Senator to fill the term to which Jeff Days was recently nominated, to Judge William M.

For several weeks it has been rumoIed that Senator Clarke would resign to accept a place in the sab inet of Pres dent Woodrow Wilson, and in this event the legislature has been cou ated upon to select Gov. Robinson as his successor. This would make vacancy in the office of Governor and several candila es have announced in case such con- dit on arose. The death of Senator Davis brought forth another comDli- cation, and should Senator Clarke accept place in the cabinet, there will be two vacancies to be filled.
 It is natural that Governor-elect Robinson if he cons uers only his own pciliaical future, would prefer the appointment 70 fill the uneXpjr- ed term of Senator Davis, and to hold his new term which begins in Marc for he would thi1s have six years to serve If he was appoint ed to succeed Senator Clarke, in case the sen Or Senator takes a place in the Cabinet, he would

 Associate Justice w. F. Kirby.
 Associate Justice w. F. Kirby, when asked for a statement, said:
 Senator Jeff Davis was my friend, and l was profoundly shocked at the announcement of his death, not even having heard of his indisposition. No more able and faithful servant of the people has been hopored by our state in recent time. Arkansas will suffer great loss on account of his death, which sorely grieves his host of friends. To them his uptimely taking off seems a great calamity. We shall not soon see his like again.
 Superintendent of Public lnstruc- ton George E. Cook stated that the death of Senator Davis is a great and unexpected shock to this state and country He has been a true and 1 trusted friend to large portion o. 1 the people of this state, ana Will De greatly missed
 Secretary of State Earle w. Hodges stated that he was shocked and sriev- 1 ed to learn of the death of Senator Da = wis, and extended his heartfelt sym pathies to the bereaved family. "In Politics Till Die.'
 Senator Davis was one of the Big Four from Arkansas in the Baltimore convention which nominated Woodrow 1 Wilson for president.

 The death of Senator Days remov- ed one of the most unique characters in American life. His demise at this time, coming as it idoes on the eve of the inauguration of a new governor, who promises to be the best that Ar kansas ever had. will completely change the political map of Arkansas.

NATION OR OTHERWISE, DURING THE RECESS OF THE LEGISLA- TURF OF ANY STATE, THE EXECU- TIVE THEREOF MAY TAKE ITEM PORARY APPOINTMENT UNTIL THE NEXT MEETING OF THE LEGISLATURE, WHICH SHALL THEN FILL SUCH VACANCIES"
 An act Of Congress says:
 Whenever, on the meeting of the legislature of any state vacancy shall exist in the representation of such state in the Senate of the United States, said legislature shall proceed, on the second Tuesday after the con- mencement and organization of it's ses- sion, to elect a person to fill such va cancy, in the manner hereinbefore ! provided for the election of a senator for full term; and if; a vacancy shall happen during the session of legisla- ture, then on the second Tuesday af- ter the legislature shall have been organized and shall have notice of such vacancy"
 The Political Situation
 Little Rock, Jan. 3.-While all Arkansas is paying homage to it's respected dead, Senator Jeff Davis, the politician Is busy and by the time the funeral is over Sunday aftsf- noon, some announc ement may be expected as to his successor. Who this will be is the object: of much speculation.
 The first report was that Governor Donaghey would resign and be ap- pointed to the position by Acting Governor w. C. Rodgers, who would succeed him. As the office would permit the holder to remain ill Wash- ington only through the balance of the present session of Congress, and the legislature must elect success sor to take office March 4, 1t IS hardly probable that Gov. Donaghey would take this course. He IS eX- pected to appoint James H. Harrod, R. F. Milwee, Judge Joseph M. Hill or some one else who would make ] effort to hold on for only the brief remainder of Senator Davis term.
 From other sources it is intima1ed ..hat Governor-elect Joe T. Robin son will be appointed to the pcsit on 1 It is generally known that he can be the next Senator, selectel by the General Assembly, if he says the word, and it would be merely clear ing the way for great gubernator- ia] handicap if he would accept the office now.
