GOVERNOR PARDONS FOR
 MFR COLLECTOR RUSSELL
Sentenced to Nine Years in Peni~ tentiary for Embezzlement City Funds. Was Lead
 ing Church Member

Little Rock, Oct. 2.-Yielding to the wishes of over 5000 resi- dents of Pine Bluff and Jefferson county, Gov. c. w. Hays Tues day afternoon granted a pardon to Andrew c. Russell, former collector of Pine Bluff who is serving a term of nine years in the penitentiary for the embez- clement of city funds. For weeks Gov. Hays has been flooded with petitions and telegrams, urging the release of Russell. One of the most prominent workers in behalf of Russell was Rev. James Thomas, Former State Senators H. K. Toney, and E. J. Kerwin also asked for the pardon, as did Senator Thomas White, Mayor Bloom, all members of the jury which convicted Russell, and thousands of others.
 Russell invested funds belong ing to Pine Bluff which he and his bondsmen made good. He was convicted under a new sta tute which prevented the usual defense, and given one year in the penitentiary. Russell later entered a plea of guilty to eight other indictments and received a year in each case. He has been several months on the state farm, working in the commits sary.
 The prisoner was a former leading church worker in Pine
 Bluff and assisted the bonding company in settling his affairs. ! The bonding company, as well as the labor organizations of Pine
 Bluff joins in the petition for the pardon. One of the strong ar
 guments for the pardon was to permit Russell to return to his Jefferson county farm and to as sist in the work of getting others | to follow his lead in diversified farming.

-o,,n,ssION WORKING ON MET OF APPOINTMENTS
,;,ent Ladies of State Will rrGn %aye Charge of Arkansas 'I IRuilding at Panama-Pa-
 cifc Exposition.

The people of the entire world ...i1 a"b have a taste of true Ark snsas ~,il S' hospitality during the '.nny al,SSv months of the Panama pao;6c Dla';f International Exposition, fa.llv far the parlors of the Arkansas thu;lding tDl will be daily in charge oe' os . coterie of leading society ., ,.ornon n of the state who will re- so;ve "S all visitors to the building. ST' The Arkansas Commission is row smy working upon the list of ap- ,,Or ,u,oOintments. The most time will Se taken over the selection of a sh;ef S hostess, who will be at the haad @ of the receiving line during tho @ entire exposition. This wo- man ma will have much to do with the selection and appointment of the aids.
 It is planned by the Commis- sioners to have women appointed for each week of the fair, and If there are persons appointed who cannot serve, their places will be immediately filled. The com mission has its work cut out for it in taking into consideration every county of the state and se- lecting a committee of the most prominent society from that county to spend a week in the re- ception hall, AS there are 75 counties of the state, and the ex- position will be in operation less than half that number of weeks, it is thought that eight or ten ladies can be kept there at all times without difficulty. It is probable that the different coun- ties will be asked to send a cer- tain number of women each week.
 As the selection carries with 1t considerable prestige, as well as social recognition on the part of the Commission, the members of the committee to make the selections expects to be solicited for appointments, rather than to have to go out and beg pro- mlnent women of the state to ac- cept the appointments. This is especially true with regards to the Chief Hostess, as it will be
 a high honor to be selected as
 the thu most qualified, socially, to hll this position. The committee
 announces that the. choice will positively be made on aualifica- ton alone.

COMMISSIONERS MEET TO
 CANVASS THE RETURNS

Little Rock, Oct. 2.-The State Board of Election Commission CTS met in the office of Gov. G. W. Hays Thursday afternoon and canvassed the returns of the recent election. An error was corrected to take Howard out of the wet" column and place it in the "dry" by 751 vot- eS.
 Gov. Hays will not issue a pro- clamatioh declaring the Acts and Amendments to be adopted until after he has looked carefully in to the law governing this mat ter. The members of the Com mission were of the opinion that there is no question about the Child Labor act, and the publi- city bill, but there is a clash be- tween the Bond Amendment and the constitution. The Bond Amendment measure makes it effective immediately after it has been adopted by a majority vote, while the Constitution re quires that all amendments must be declared adopted by the speaker of the House. Whether this will render the amendment void, Gov. Hays cannot say at this time.

and an attempt will be made to
amend it. Whether il is amended
OF not, it is tremendous improve
ment on the existing law. Under
it the Grant county farmers could
not have been annoyed. Instead
the penalty would have been in
tlicted on the real culprits-the
trust-and the men who managed
the trust.
When the new law is passed
there will be no such thing as
"soulless" trust. The Democratic
party has decided to give every
trust several bodies and at least
one soul for each body. The bod
les will belong to the men who own
the trust, and when the trust vio-
lates the law the courts will be re-
quired to fine the trust and to
place the bodies of those who con-
troll the trust in federal prison.
Heretofore the courts have held
that trusts could not be put in
Jail, and when fines were imposed
the trust found it easy to raise the
price of their products and thus
shift the burden to the backs of
the consumers Of the country.
With the enforcement of the
Democratic theory that guilt is
always personal" all this will be
changed.
Trust magnates don't fear fines,
but they abhor jails.

in Cincinnati, Ohio, unless the

terstate transaction and the trusts g
attorneys rushed into the federal
courts and soon the gigantic legal
machinery of the Sherman anti.
trust law, which had not turned a
wheel in seventeen years, began to
grind up the eight Grant county
farmers
The miscreants were hauled be-
fore federal grand jury and in
dicted. Then they were tried be-
fore federal judge and convicted
and sentenced.
And all this time the tobacco
trust was doing business at the old

not raise a hand to restrain it's op-
erations.
NEED OF AMENDMENT.
The farmers Of the country made
such a fuss over the Grant county
farmers case that the convicted
men were pardoned by President
Taft. The incident served to en-
phasize the need of amending the
law so that it could not be per-
verted from it's original purpose

restraint of trade.

Wilson has signaed to congress

cratic majorities in both houses
are preparing to smash legislative
speed records in the hope that we
can get away from Washington by
July 10th.
The presidential program calls
for the passage of the antitrust
and rural credits bills and, of
course, the Panama canal tolls bill

OF the task we'll within the time

bic to keep up with the schedule.
Public sentiment seems to be the
only influence which can curtail
the flow of talk in the upper cham
Der, and that influence may make
itself felt before very long.
The business interests of the
country are clamoring for action
They realize that while the anti
trust bill is supplied with teeth, it's
enforcement will not affect legiti-
mate enterprise. The honest bust
ness man has discovered that Pres
dent Wilson is his best friend, and
he is more than willing to give
Democratic policies fair test
1t is quite generally agreed that
the very best thing congress could
do from business point of view is
to complete the work of redeeming
party pledges, adjourn and go
home, A few partisans may at
tempt to block this program, but
everything indicates that they will
be swept aside.
ANTITRUST LAW.
When the Sherman antitrust
law was passed, twenty years ago,
it was announced by its sponsors
that its purpose was to curb trusts
and great combinations of capital
which were operating in such a
way as to interfere with the free
dom of trade.
However, during the first seven
teen years it was on the statute
books the only persons who were
tried and convicted under it's pro-
visions were eight farmers in Grant
county, Kentucky. During those
seventeen years scores of trusts
had been formed and they had
wrung almost countless millions of
dollars of unjust profits from the
American people, but they had not
felt the heavy hand of the law.
The eight farmers might have
escaped if they had not committed
the fatal blunder of offending one
of the very trusts which the law
WAS designed to control
FARMERS COMBINE.
When the American tobacco
trust was formed its promoters un-
dertook to lower the price paid the
farmers for their tobacco and to
advance the price charged the con-
sumer for the finished product.
Eventually the farmers found them
selves unable TO make a living
raising tobacco. Their farms had
to be mortgaged and bankruptcy
aud the poorhouse confronted them.
Then it was that they attempted to
com bine and compel the trust TO
deal more generously with them.
The legislature of Kentucky en-.
acted laws legalizing this combina-
ton or union of farmers and au-
thorizing the members to pool
their products and hold them for
better prices.
When the agents Of the trust at.
tempted to buy tobacco they were
compelled to deal with commit

yet some people will tell you that
one kind of white lead is as good as
another-that the brand does not
matter provided the white lead
is pure.
You can see that Carter is
whittier than any other, you can feel
that it is finer and when you have
had house painted with Carter,
then you begin to appreciate lust
how beautiful and durable a pain, il makes.
The Carter process of making white
lead differs from the other method chiefly
IN that 1t is under constant observation
and control while 1t is being changed from
metallic lead into white lead. And IL is
white lead when corrosion Is completed
because everything that nigh, discolor II
or impair its value as paint is carefully ex-
cluded and someone is watching it all the
time to see that nothing goes wrong.
Most white leads look white until YOU
get them alongside Carter. then the differ
enee Is plainly seen and to whatever extent
carter is whittier than others 1t will make a
more beautiful, more durable and more
economical paint.
To the man who has a house to paint
white this Is OF special interest. For he
