ARKANSAS GUARDS
INSPECTION BEGUN

Little Rock, Aug. Capt. A. B..
Sloan, U. S. A., detailed to service
with the Arkansas National Guard,
accompanied by Major w. c. Brad
ford, left Little Rock Sunday after
noon for Warren, where today the
military company will be inspected
The inspection will then continue. one
or more companies each day, until
September 6, by which time the entire
state will have been travelled over.
This inspection is being made for
the purpose of showing the officer OF
the United States army, that the
guard has more property than credit
ed with in the last inspection, and it is
hoped that enough additional equip
ment will be shown to wipe out the
charges AGAINST the guard.
The last inspection was made just
after the legislature had failed to pass
a bill making the usual appropriation
for the guard, when report was cir
culated over the state the guard
would be disbanded. In many places
Capt. Sloan failed to get sufficient
number of the company members for
an inspection, the men thinking there
would be no inspection, and for that
reason they failed to show up with
their equipment. This equipment was
all reported short by Capt. Sloan, be-
cause he must personally see it or re-
port it short.
Every company commander in the
state has been directed to make a
close search for government property,
and to have everything he can find on
hand when the army officer comes
around.

CITIZEN ASKS A
FEW QUESTIONS
From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
What has become of our City Beau
tiful Association? Have they gone
dead since they consolidated with some
other association not long since?
Their attention is much needed all
over the city. What about our county
officers? Can't they help the looks of
the Court Square? If I had to say, l
would say it looks somewhat like a
dumping ground. What about our
city daddies putting in little of their
spare time occasionally looking around
the city with critical eye?" If they
would, am sure they would find a
number of piles of weeds and grass
around the front and back allies of
the residences and stores. What has
become of that order or request that
was sent out not long since through
the Democrat, in reference to cutting
weeds around the premises all over
the city? Look it up and get busy,
Mr.. Officer. We are looking for a
large crowd of young folks to attend
our schools this fall and winter. Let's
make them feel good by welcoming
them to the cleanest city in the state.

7 COUNTIES FAIL
TO MAKE RETURNS

Little Rock, Aug. 1.-Two counties
have now failed to make thir official
returns on the recent special election,
and the attention of Governor J. M.
Futrell and Secretary of State Earle
w. Hodges is now turned to MISSISSIPPI
pi and White counties in an effort to
get them in.
1t is the desire Of Governor-elect G.
w. Hays to be inaugurated next Wed
nesday, at which time special train
will probably be run from Camden
and Ell Dorado, bringing friends of
the new chief executive to attend the
exercises. Unless the outstanding
counties report prior to that time, the
state Board of Election Commission
ers cannot meet and canvass the vote,
and until this is done they cannot
issue a certificate Of election to Judge
Hays. There is fear expressed that
White, the home county of Judge S.
Bfundidge, will hold out the full 80
days allowed it under the law, delay
ing the Inauguration until August %.
Acting Governor Futrell is so anx-
ious to get away and back to his home
in Paragould, that he will probably go
to Searcy and make personal appeal
for the early returns, if letters and
kilograms do not bring a favorable
action from the county election COM
missioners.
There has been considerable talk of
an. opponent to Judge Hays, who must
again be a candidate in the primaries
next March, if he expects to serve
more than the unexpired term of Joe
T. Robinson. This is probably shot
air." for prominent politicians, who
would influence candidate to enter
the race, should there be opposition to
Judge Hays, deny they contemplate
such a course. They are holding back
and declare they will permit Judge
Hays to enter Office unhampered with
the threat of opposition. If he makes
good in the Office there will be no op-
position.
Judge Hays has made no announce
ment as to whom his private secretary
will be, but the impression now is
that former Assistant Private Secre-
tary Moses, under Governor Geo. w.
Donaghey, will be the man chosen.

WORK COMMENCED
ON SEWER SYSTEM
From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
Contractor Joseph McCoppin has
begun work on the new sewer system
for this city, the work starting at the
intersection of Garvin avenue and
Davis street. Although the new 20
ton ditching machine has been delay
ed in shipping, Mr.. McCoppin is go
ing ahead with the work, using an
old machine. Six carloads of tile
have been received and more is ex-
pected to arrive early next week.
At all houses where the occupants
expect to use the sewer system, Us
are laid so that the connections may
be made with little or no difficulty.
The contractor desires that the own

gineer, B. G.. Wilson, of the location
they wish the US laid at their prop
erty.

WHIPS ARMED OFFICER
HOGAN REPRESENTED WIFE OF
DEPUTY HARVILL IN d.
VORCE SUIT.

Fort Smith, July 31.-In fight be-
tween Dan Hogan, editor, publisher
and attorney of Huntington, and Dan
Harvill, deputy city marshal, four
shots. were fired last night. The fight
took place in front Of Hogan's home
at Huntington Hogan, who two years
ago was the Socialist candidate for
governor, says Harvill attacked him.
In a fight that followed Harvill was
knocked down. The officer then drew
a Derringer and emptied it at Ho-
gan at distance of 10 feet. The
shots went wild. When he pulled
six-shooter Hogan grappled with him.
During the scufiie the gun was dis
charged twice. Both bullets went
wild.
Harvill was disarmed by Hogan,
lodged in Jail and later placed under
peace bond and suspended from Office.
When a warrant was issued yester-
day, charging him with assault to kill,
it was found he had disappeared. Ho-
gan secured divorce for Mrs. Har-
will some time ago and lately she had
been employed as nurse in Hogan's
household. Hogan was a candidate
for first vice president of the national
Socialist party at the last election and
was defeated by small vote.

PROF. SIMMONS AT OZARK.

Prof. Simmons of the chair of
Greek and Latin in Hendrix College
delivered a splendid address at the
Methodist church Sunday morning. In
the evening he gave a lecture on Pa
gan and Christian Rome to a we'll
filled auditorium. The lecture was
made very interesting from the fact
that Prof. Simmons had been in Rome
and studied his subject at first hand,
and used a stereoptlcon to illustrate
his lecture. The audience enjoyed it
very much.-Ozark Spectator.

celebrated in Little Rock by the ne

wagons heavily loaded with the fruit
which no negro can resist, from his
farm near Little Rock.
