LINES OF BATTLE
NOW BEING DRAWN
Many Probable Candidates Mentioned
for United States Senate and
Governor. Hon. T. c. Me
Rae for Governor

Little Rock, March 6.-During the
struggle in the conflict of 1914. the
lines are being drawn for the battle
which will be fought out on the hust-
ings in the fall of 1915 and the spring
of 1916. The list of entries can be
made out today almost as complete as
1T will be in the days just before the
primaries.
In the race for the United States
Senate will be, Joe T. Robinson of
Lonoke; T. II. Carraway of Jonesboro;
and possibly Joseph M. Hill of Fort
Smith, and George w. Donaghey of
Conway and Little Rock. Though
former Governor Donaghey has an
nounced that he has retired from poll
tics, it is figured that he will come
back in 1915 and attempt to wrest
from Senator Robinson, the laurels
which he achieved in the gubernator-
ial contest with Gov Donaghey. The
fact that he side-stepped the Senator
ial race at this time indicates that he
is playing for the future.
The list of entries in the guberna-
torial race will be large. In this race
the certain entries are, Earle w. Hod-
ges, now secretary of State; John w.
Crockett, now State Treasurer; C. H.
Brough, of the University of Arkansas
and j. C. Floyd, now Congressman
from the Third District. David A.
Gates, of the State Tax Commission;
7. c. McRae of Prescott; and J. Mar
ion Futrell, of Paragould, now presi-
dent pro TEN of the State Senate, are
possibilities.

GOVERNOR HAYS ISSUES
PARDON TO EDWARD BUTTS
Granted on Condition that Any Fu-
ture Violations of Laws of Ark
ansas Shall Render Same
Null and Void"

Little Rock, March 6.-Acting upon
the recommendation of the Peniten-
tiary Commission, Gov. Hays has par
doned Edward Butts, white man
who was convicted in October, 1910,
in Poinsett county, of murder and
sentenced to twenty-one years impris-
onment.
Attached to this pardon, as to all
that are being issued by Gov. Hays,
is the condition: Granted on condi-
tion that any future violation of the
laws of Arkansas by Said Edward
Butts shall render the same null and
void
Butts was manager of a lumber
camp in Poinsett county at the time
of the killing, and the circumstances
surrounding the crime were such that
the citizens were willing to sign a pc
tition for clemency. He has been
chief gate-keeper at the walls, has
made a model prisoner, and his wife
is dangerously i'll at Maiden, Mo.

WILD SCRAMBLE FOR
PLEDGES AFTER PRIMARY
Race for Presiding Offices in General
Assembly Will Begin as Soon as
Members are Known.
Some are Announced

Next comes the race for presiding
offices in the Legislative branches, and
as soon as the primary is over, and
it becomes known who will compose
the General Assembly, there will be a
wild scramble to secure pledges for
the various candidates for President
of the Senate and Speaker of the
House.
Elmer B. Lundy, of Polk county, is
the only avowed candidate for Presi-
dent of the Senate. Senator j. Mar
ion Futrell, president pro TEN of that
body has indicated that he will not
seek to retain the presidency during
the session. C. C. Calvert, the Fort
Smith labor leader, is looked upon as
formidable candidate for the honor,
while Thomas E. Toler of Grant coun-
ty; j. M. Smith of Union, and John
Ike Moore of Phillips, may be found
in the running. Senator Moore has
held the Office before, and if he aspires
to it, will no doubt be elected.
Ben L. Griffin, now of Pulaski is the
only avowed candidate for Speaker
of the House, but Joseph Hardage
of Clark is coming back to the House,
and he made such a reputation last
session in the manner in which he dis
patched business, that he will be
Speaker again if he makes the race.

c,NDIDATES APPEAL TO
va" ATTY. GEN. FOR RELIEF
.hor of Candidates Who Failed to
N cet Pledges Filed in Time Pre-
scribed by Corrupt Practices
Act in the Air.

number of appeals for relief have
made to Attorney-General Moose
Nv candidates who failed to get their
niodges filed in time as prescribed by
the Corrupt Practice Act. The most
atoble instances are w. w. Albright
aondidate for State Senator from
Boone county, and j. c. Cash, candi-
do+o for assessor of Arkansas. Mr..
rosb came to Little Rock and called
nersonally upon the Attorney-general
for advice. Judge Moose has advised
al Of them that he knows of no way
IN which they can get relief for their
oversight. but that in view of the PEN
alties prescribed in the act, it would
he best for them to make no effort to
get on the ticket.
The statute specifically prescribes
that all candidates in primary cleo
tion shall file their pledges with the
designated authorities not less than
thirty days preceding the election, and
another section provides penalty of
not to exceed $1,000 or Imprisonment
not exceeding one year, or both, for
a violation of any provisions of the
act Therefore a strict Interpretation
of the act would mean the prosecution
of any candidate who persisted in
placing his name before the people,
despite his failure to file the pledge as
required by law.

LAYING PLANS FOR
HIGHEST OFFICES
Little Rock Members Sons of Confed-
crate Veterans Will Endeavor to
Secure Highest Offices
In the Organization

Little Rock members of the Sons of
Confederacy are now laying plans
for bringing the highest office in the
organization back to Arkansas from
the Jacksonville Fla. reunion. When
the reunion was held in Little Rock
the Arkansas Sons fell in line with the
Sons of the other states and elected as
Commander in Chief, the man in line
for the position. In Macon they also
assisted in promoting a faithful SER
want. Then at Chattanooga Arkan-
sas had the affontry to put forward
a candidate, who was promptly frown-
ed upon by the "ring" or the organi-
zation, who by strenuous methods, put
over the "slate"
The Arkansas Sons held their peace
and returned home determined to get
recognition in 1914 or cease to remain
the backbone of the organization. 1t
was the Arkansas Sons who raised
the greater portion of the funds to
pay off the long standing debt of the
Sons, and Arkansas has paid per capi-
ia dues for more camps, and larger
camps, than any other state. 1t now
demands recognition for it's past ser
vices or will do like others did in
the q US of the Confederacy.
The ring" has been more active
this year than usual, dreading to COM
pete with the strength of Arkansas.
1t is customary for the most work to
be done in the reunion city, recruiting
large camp there and by controlling
this camp, to elect the man of their
choice. Macon and Chattanooga set
a precedent in keeping hands off, leav-
ing it to the old camps to fight it out,
and if this is done in Jacksonville,
Arkansas will be winner.
A whirlwind campaign will be made
over Arkansas in April, reviving old
camps and organizing new ones, until
Arkansas alone will equal the strength
of the other states of the Confederacy
If this can be done it will be easy to
elect a Commander from Arkansas.

Quality of Humor.

A famous definition of the quality OF
humor is this: For this humor is an
adjunct divine; it is value Of life; it
makes for greater things than clean
laughter from the lungs. 1t is the root
of tolerance. the proof of patience; it
suffers long and is kind; serves to
tune each little life harmony with the
world harmony about it; keeps the
heart of man sweet. his soul modest.
And at the end. when the light thick
ems and the mesh grows tight, humor
can shape the suffering yigils of the
sleepless, can soften pain. can brighten
the ashy road to death"
