McCombs, chair man of the National Democratic Committee, Arkansas product and intimate friend of President Woodrow Wilson. is coming to Arkansas to address the annual convention of the Arkansas Bankers Association. which will meet in Little Rock in April. He may be accompanied by Secre- f tary McAdoo of the United States Treasury, but no accept ance has yet been received from this high official. The speakers will discuss national issues, from the standpoint of the admins tration, with the Arkansas bank CTS.
 There appeared on the streets of Little Rock last week a new kind of automobile horn, in the style of pipes. The driver of the car, sent on to advertise the horn and the cars, drove over the streets playing tunes on the horn, and it was almost like a Pied Piper. At every street corner that were gaping citizens. This innovation in automobile horns created as much excite ment among the townfolk of Little Rock. as must the first caliope whistle on Arkansas river packets among the docile Indians who at that time popu- lated the forests along the banks of the stream.

just where the end would have
 been.
 The Brinkley House has been
 conducted as a ''$l.0O a day house l the past several years, tho some twenty years ago it was Brink ley's leading hotel and was one
 of the best and most popular in
 Eastern Arkansas; in fact, it is
 an old land mark and of it's early
 history many interesting incl
 dents are told. It is was the lead
 ing eating house for all the
 trains of the Memphis and Little Rock Ky. back in the seventies
 and eighties and many were the
 men of national character who
 have eaten there back in in those pioneer railway eating house days. Incidently it is told, too, that the time was when it was the gathering spot for men of sporting proclivities, who at their gathering which oft times lasted
 for several days and nights at a time would risk, loose. and win fortunes on a single hand at poker.
 But the old land mark is no
 more and no doubt in it's stead there will be within another year magnificent modern hotel. The owner, Gus Rusher of the Arlington Hotel, carried $2,0OO insurance on the building and $1, ,O00 on the furniture and fix lures with the Monroe County
 Bank Insurance Agency. The
 building was worth $5.000 or $6, ,00O. MT. Rusher expects to
 build a modern brick hotel in its stead.
 The Bank of Brinkley sustain ed a loss of several hundred dol lars as did also Drs. Stimson and Mcknight while other tenants off the Bank Building offices werf also loosers to some extent.

NEWS IN LITTLE ROCK
A Lively Letter of News and Happenings in the
 Capital City

Little Rock, March, 5-During the struggle in the conflict of 1914, the lines are being drawn for the battle which will be fought out on the hustlngsin in the fall of 1915 and the spring of 1916. The list of entries can be made out today almost as com plete as it 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. H. Carraway of Jonesboro; and possibly Joseph M. Hill of Fort Smith and George w. Donaghey of Conway and Little Rock Though former Gov. Donaghey has announced that he has re- tired from politics. it is figured that he will come back in 1915 and attempt to wrest from Senator Robinson, the laurels which he achieved in the gubernatorial contest with Gov. Donaghey. The fact that he side-stepped the Senatorial race at this time indicates that he is playing for the future.
 The list of entries in the gubernatorial race will be large. In this race the certain entries are. Earle w. Hodges. now Sec retary of State; John w. Crockett. now State Treasurer: c. H. Brough. of the University

GUESTS SPRING SURPRISE.
MIR. and Mrs. Henry Serr Realistically
Play Roll of Newly Weds,

Mr.. and Mrs. Serr left on the Sun
day afternoon train for few days
visit in Portland To their surprise
and pleasure they were escorted to the
depot by a number of regular guests
of Hotel Gail and just at leaving time
were presented with a beautiful
brides boquet of white carnations
and a huge bunch or roses and
poppies. The mock wedding tour ar
ranged by their friends caused no lit
tie amusement among the bystanders,
Mr.. and Mrs. Serr entering into the
spirit of the play heartily and real
istically. Mrs. Serr was tenderly en-
braced by her lady friends, while Mr..
Serr and Mr.. Velguth embraced and
kissed with a fervor that brought real
tears to the eyes of the spectators in
the enjoyment of the occasion. The
conductor of the train being so intent
upon not missing the last of the fare
well. waved by those left behind, lost
his hat from the rear of the coach
and it was necessary for him to stop
the train TO recover it.

BIG EXPRESS BILL ON BULL.
Guernsey Animal Arrives From Mis-
souri, This Week.

Frank X. Hull, who two years ago
came to Polk county from st. Joseph,
Missouri, and engaged in dairying in
Cooper's Hollow, has just received a
Guernsey bull from the Bourbon state,
the animal having been shipped by
express at q cost of SOB. The bull
cost Mr.. Hull, "laid down" here
$1603.
In "Blue Valley Jim," by which
title the bull is registered, Mr.. Hull
has one of the best Guernsey animals
in the United States. He contains
the blood of the two great herd of
Guernseys in the United States, which
have produced the worlds record,
and said to be the greatest milk
strain known. He is the grandson Of
Dolly Dimple, the world S record COW,
and contains more crosses of the cele-
brated May Rose than any bull
known. A bull calf of Dolly Dimple s
was sold for $4,000 when four weeks
old.
The farmers of Polk county can no
longer afford to harbor scrub cattle.
Dairying has been put on a scientific
basis, and the cost of feed is too
great not to derive Tie best results.

MANY VISIT THE RACES.
Thirty-fve Autos and Two Hundred
People Go to Independence.

Saturday was a decidedly large day
at Independence, and Dallas was
there some two hundred strong in an
effort to make it still larger. About
thirty-fve automobiles, filed to the
guards with residents of the county
seat town, and headed by the Dallas
band of thirty pieces, left for the
Hop City by the raging Willamette
shortly after noon, arriving there in
time to join the procession for the
races. The afternoon was dreary and
cold, but the three racing events were
hot-ly contested, and that helped some.
The crowd was the largest of the
week, and the management was elated
over the club s success in the face of
the weather mans strenuous opposi-
tion.

THE BROWN SITE
Council Committee Favors This
Land For Septic Tank.
ALDERMEN MEET LAST NIGHT.
Property Will be Viewed This After
noon by Barber, Miller and knight,
Mayors Appointees.

A committee from the council will
investigate the Brown grounds this
afternoon at 2 O. clock, and report on
their availability as site for the
proposed septic tank at the next reg
ular meeting. This was decided upon
at a special session of the council
last night, when all the aldermen ex-
cept Messrs. Hayter and Westover
were present. The mayor favored this
site, the price of which is 5000 as
against $500 for the Uglow site.
While his honor, after getting a more
clear understanding of the Uglow
property declares that the price asked
is not unreasonably high, yet if the
Brown site is adapted to the purpose
there would be saving of 5000 to the
city. 1t is said that the boundaries
of the Uglow property had been
changed since the council viewed the
proposed site there, thus causing
misunderstanding between the parties
concerned.
Alderman Barber, Miller and
Knight, the committee appointed by
the Mayor last night, will make a
thorough investigation of the entire
situation this afternoon, and there is
every reason to believe that it will
recommend the purchase of the Brown
site, consisting of about three-quarters
of an acre.
Mr.. P. S. Greenwood was elected
street commissioner last night, his
salary to be $50 per month. He will
give the city his whole time.

Short Stay Only.
POLK FRUIT UNION Is URGED

Tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock, Mr.
I'll. C. Sampson, representing the North
Pacific Fruit Distributors association
will visit Dallas and address those in
terested in securing memberhip in the
organization at the courthouse. Sec
retary Miles, of the Commercial club,
has been busy since Saturday getting
Information of Mr. Sampson con-
templated visit to fruit growers
throughout the county, and the prob
abilities are that the attendance upon
the meeting will be large and repre-
sentative.
Mr.. Sampson will briefly outline the
cooperation plan of distribution,
which makes the grower himself the
chief factor in selling his product, the
North Pacific association receiving a
commission of only ten cents a box,
which pays the expenses Of its salaried
general agents throughout the world
and likewise its sixty-seven special
representatives. This comparatively
low commission, and the further fact
that the association disposed of sixty
per cent OF the apple crop of the
northwest last year, would indicate
that the problem of cooperation mar
keting has been solved.
Every fruit grower, whether large
or small, should attend this gath
ering. Organization here means much
to Polk county, and the opportunity
should be welcomed. Independence.
Monmouth and Falls City are expected
to have representation in the meet
ing. For the present it is the purpose
of the North Pacific Distributors as
sociation to organize one sub-central,
which will embrace the territory be-
tween Portland and Roseburg, incu-
sive. That will be Immediately fol-
lowed by the organization of the
Grants Pass and Medford districts in
another sub-central. Each of them
will have representation on the board
Of managers.

with those Of Forest Grove, DiIley,
Corvallis, Eugene, Sutherlin, Yoncal-
la, Cottage Grove, Salem, Brownsville,
Independence, Gresham, Monmouth,
Newberg, Springbrook and Roseburg
will be invited to send delegates to
Portland on June 20 for the purpose
of completing the organization of a
board ofjrs.wfieldheT THESESCEESTA
sub-central, electing one member of
the board of managers at Spokane
and completing the details for market
ing the 1914 fruit crop of Western
Oregon through the distributor selling
agencies.
While the North Pacific association
is not operating in Polk county at
this time, it is distributing consid-
cradle quantities of Polk county
Strawberries, shipments being made
from Dallas to Salem, from which
point carload lots are forwarded to
the markets. After the organization
of local growers is perfected ship
ments will be made from Dallas di-
rect. The apple crop will be distrib-
uted by the North Pacific people this
fall if the growers so elect.
