COTTON SALE WILL
 BE PERSONAL RISK
Blue Sky Law Will Not Admit of Permit to Do Business for South.
 ern Cotton Corporation.

Little Rock, Aug. H. Through an unofficial opinion rendered by Attor- ney General w. l.. Moose Saturday afternoon at the request of H. S. Mobley, the president of the Arkansas Farmers Union, the man who sells his cotton to the Southern Cotton Corporation, with the hope of getting 15 cents per pound for it, does so at his own risk.
 The Southern Cotton Corporation has been doing business ill Arkansas for some months, agreeing to pay 15 cents for cotton, delivering script against the weight of the cotton de- livered to the company, to be redeem ed, with interest, when the cotton is sold. One form of contract calls for a part payment, at market prices for the cotton, the balance being issued ill script to be taken up when the cotton is sold.
 Attorney General Moose states the
  man who delivers the cotton to this concern, accepts script for it, and the cotton passes from his control, so he has nothing to fall back upon but his contract. He points out that if the cotton is not sold, the farmer can aot expect to receive anything.
 1t has been stated that the con- cern would be prevented from doing business in Arkansas under the Blu. sky law. but Attorney General Moose says this law has nothing to do with the company. The Blue Sky law pre- tains to only investments and the sale of stocks. The state is without authority to prevent the company doing business in the state, but the warning should be sufficient for tht farmers, for it they do no business with the concern, it will be driver from the state through lack of busi | ness.

 The boys were assigned to rooms in the dormitories. to place at the tables in the dining hall, and told when they were expected to be on hand for lectures. The faculty of the University of Arkansas agricul- tural department, number of pro- fessors from the four agricultural schools of the state, besides the gov ernment experts, were on hand to map out the course of study for thv two weeks. ! a

JEFFERSON COUNTY LEADS


 A government road expert at Lit tles Rock talks enthusiastically of the recent decision of the property Own- CTS of Road Improvement District No. |, in Jefferson county, to put down a Doliarway- road, which is perma- nent roadbed.
 Its the most progressive step the property owners in Arkiahsas have ever. taken said the good roads ex- pert in discussing the plans with 8 Pine Blufffan at Little Rock Sunday.
 Il have been trying to get Judge Asher to put down such a road in Pulaski county for five years, but the property owners and Judge Asher could not see it's lasting benefits until recently, after macadam roads have proven such failure. Jefferson county will lead all other counties in the state in the matter of good roads, when it's new Dollarway roadbed is finished. Such road is a cerdit to any county i'll any state and 1 am glad to see the progressive and up to-date spirit that prevails in lief fersOn county.

TOOK HIS OWN LIFE.
Cause of Rash Deed Due to Past Life
of Suicide.

The following from a Concord, n.
c., paper gives further details OF the
suicide of G. W. Allen, the former
resident Of Greenville, who had serV-
ed a term in the South Carolina pen
itentiary for murder and whose
daughter took her own life at her
home in Greenville several months
ago.
Standing in the presence OF his
young wife, a bride Of only two
months, and with ner frantically
pleading for him not to do 80, G. W.
Allen, an employee Of the Globe
Tonic Company, fired a bullet into
his breast in his room at the Hopkins
House on East Depot street, infiict-
ing a mortal wound, from which he
died an hour later. The cause OF the
rash deed appears to relate to the
dead mans past life in South Caro-
lima.
He had been in Greenville only
three weeks, was known only to few
people and no one with the possible
exception of his business associates
we're familiar with his past life. In
quiries, however, reveal the fact that
his career in that State had been
checkered. A former wife, it devel-
ops, is living in South Carolina and
from whom it is not known whether
he secured a divorce and on account
Of whom he shot a man in South Car
DINA and was sentenced to term in
prison, being pardoned in 1910 by
Governor AnSel.

Fight on the Bill Begun.

The attack of special privilege
upon the Underwood tariff bill has
begun. All of the moth-eaten old
scares-in the opinion of thoughtful
students of the tariff, they are but
scarecrows-are being lugged out
again, and great many honest Peo-
pie will undoubtedly be frightened by
them. The first indication Of the
tactics to be used by the benehciaries
of special privilege came in the press
agented mass meeting of linen work
ers in New York state. A desperate
attempt is to be made to throw the
working man of the country into a
panic by parading before them the
bogey of hard times, says Congress
man Tavenner.
But before they allow themselves
to be stampeded, the people should
consider who are behind this old
standpat argument against tariff re-
vision downward. Are the working
men themselves doing it? Last falls
election figures show that the work
ing men of the country voted almost
solidly for the Democratic party,
which was pledged to make just the
sort of tariff revision that is contain
ed in the Underwood bill. No, those
now melting the cry of hard times,
and urging the long-abused public to
reject the tariff revision before it is
given a trial are the very ones who
have profted by the robber tarln
rates of the Payne-Aldrich law.
Are they now so concerned for the
welfare of the working people, when
during the last sixteen years they
have resisted inch by inch the SLOW
" successful efforts OF organized Ia
Dor to make them disgorge some OF
the swollen profits they have been
enabled to reap by iniquitous tariff
rates? The people should not be
thrown into panic by this old argu-
ment. For the first time in years the
people have it in their power to abol-
ish the trust-fostering Republican
tariff and the peoples representa-
tives, the Democrats in Congress, are
going ahead, unGisturbed by the
calamity howlers.

The first account filed by R. S.
Whaley, on March 30, showed an ex-
penditure of s2,699.4O, and second
on April 21. showing an expenditure
of $3.50, making total of s4,O49.-

statement of April II includes hire
of automobiles, s420; advertising in
newspapers, s4S7; contribution to
Charleston executive committee to
help defray expenses of managers,
erection of barrieades, s195, the
other items being clerical help, badg-
es, hotel and travelling expenses.
There were three accounts filed by
f. W. Hughes, the second, on April
4, showing an expenditure of s3,-
O3S.49. The principal items in this

Charleston, $500; watchers and chal-
lengers in Clarendon, s340; watch

the interim between the first and
second primary are required.
It is said here that Congress re-
quires filing of expenses by candi-
dates with the clerk of the House
there.
