Morgan is very popular with Salt
Lake fans, and deservedly so. he has
been the Skyscrapers' most reliable
pitcher and is always on the hustle, His
record last year and in the two preced-
ing years is one any pitcher might be
proud OF. Last year he pitched 1929:
his team finished 6lj. In addition to
being heady and strong pitcher, Nor
gan is no slouch at the bat. In fact,
for pitcher, Morgan is right up among
the swatters. On numerous occasions
Morgan has won his game with a lusty
clout when men were on bases

Helena's Situation.

The manager problem remains un-
solved, although it is known that two
or three candidates stand ready to come
the moment the local organization feels
that 1t can finance the club, says the
Helena Independent.
One of the latest candidates dis
cussed is Jesse Garrett, two years ago
one of the leading twirlers with the
Pacific coast league Portland club.
Garrett was sold to Philadelphia and
was sent back to Portland. He was
not in good shape and at the end of
1912 announced his retirement from
the game. He has heen engaged IN
the real estate business the past year
and a half, but like most of the dia-
mond men feels the lure Of the game
and would not be averse to re-cnter-
ing 1t. 1t is said his services as man
ager for Helena may be obtained Gar
rett could take his turn in the box
right along. In addition. it is said,
he has a number of good youngsters
lined up ready for signing. if he is
given the word TO go ahead.

ARKANSANS LINE UP
 FOR THE LEGISLATURE
CANDIDATES ARE ALREADY IN THE FIELD FOR PRESID-
 ING OFFICES.

Little Rock, April 24.-The cam paign for the organization for the coming legislature is beginning to as- sume active proportions, notwith- standing the election is several months off. The men who are being groomed for the senate presidency and speak ership have already received the Democratic nomination, however. which in Arkansas IS equivalent to election. The elimination of three or four members of the last legislature for renomination in the primaries has somewhat simplfed the situation, and it is not believed that more than two or three candidates in each branch of the general assembly will enter the race for presiding officer.
 For the speakership, l.. E. Sawyer of Hot Springs, R. A. Dawdy of Scar cy and Ben L. Griffin of Little Rock have practically obtained their con- sent to enter the field. They are all good, tried and true Democrats, and will doubtless attract a large follow ing. Mr. Sawyer came to Arkansas several years ago from North Missis- sippi, where he was we'll and favor ably known. MT. Griffin is also a native of Mississippi. MT. Dowdy served a term of four years in the state senate from the district compos- ed of Faulkner and White counties, and made quite record in advocacy of the passage of the railroad com mission bill bearing his 'name. He was nominated for the lower house of the legislature in the recent prl- n, or r;oc in Ip6anondence county Mir Sawyer has also had considerable leg islative experience and is one of the prominent members of the Hot Springs bar. MT. Griffin was for sev- eral years secretary of the Arkansas Farmers Union. As far as can be learned, the three gentlemen named will constitute the aspirants for the speakership.

WE believe in adhering strictly to the law in holding elections, and we believe in punishing election officers found guilty of fraud, and yet there are more or less irregularities in al most every election that should not be noticed. They do not change re- suits. It is only a person with an evil or selfish design that wants to dig up such things.-Atkins Chron- icle
 Oh, sure; the fellow who insists on clean elections is man of selfish very selfish design. He ought, in all conscience, to allow the election officl- als and ward and county bosses to do his thinking and voting for him in fact his persistence in the old habit of voting merely makes extra work for the guardians of the polls.-Fort Smith Times-Record.

GOING ACT 10
 U. s. COURT

Little Rock, April 25.-Chief Jus tice McCulloch yesterday refused a writ of error in the case of I. D. Me Cure vs. Topf & Wright, the suit brought to test the validity of the so- called Going liquor act. He also di- rected that the mandate be issued at once to the clerk of the Pulaski cir cult court, remanding the suit with directions to overrule the motion to dismiss the appeal from the county court, and for further proceedings. The Supreme Court held that the act is constitutional.
 Joe. w. House, IT,, and Morris M. Cohn have gone to Washington to apply to the Supreme Court of the United States for writ of error, which. if granted, will have the eff feet of taking the case to the highest tribunal of the land to determine its constitutional status.

FARM WORK DELAYED
 BY CONTINUOUS RAINS
STRAWBERRY CROP IS THREAT FINED BY EXCESSIVE PRE-
 CIPITATION.

Precipitation ranging from light showers to heavy rains, occurring al- most daily for the past three weeks, has considerably delayed farm work, and unless favorable weather prevails soon it is believed the delay will be- come serious.
 County DemonstratOr J. w. Earlier said today, however, that beyond be- ing a few days late with planting, conditions in the county to date are about normal. ''I am urging every one not to plant without proper prep aration of the seed bed," MT. Earlier said. Tt will amount to very little if planting is delayed for a few days, but it would be a serious matter if our farmers get in too big a hurry and plant without properly preparing the soil"
 MT. Earlier said he visited 51 Faulkner county farms last week and found excellent work being done on nearly all of them. Of the entire number he said that only two were preparing seed beds according to the old-fashioned methods.
 Some apprehension is being felt over the strawberry crop, which is ex- pected to begin maturing within few days. If the rains continue all week it will practically ruin the berries now ripening, rendering them soft and un- fit for shipment
 The berries are beginning to ripen now, the first home raised berries be- ing sold on the local market Saturday. Carload shipments will begin early next week if weather conditions are more favorable.

FAVORABLE MENTION
 FOR LITTlE'S CATTLE
z rom Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
 The sale of 100 fat steers by J. k. Little of Conway last week attracted considerable attention on the St. Louis market, as is evidenced by the following clipping from the National Live Stockman:
 Arkansas steers featured the trade in the quarantine division today. J. F.. Little of Faulkner county, that state, marketed four loads of steers of his own feeding that topped the quarantine market at $7.60. This price is a new record for Arkansas fed steers for the month of April and is within a dime of the highest price ever paid for steers from that state, in addition to being a new 1914 rec ord. Quite a nice string of records to take home. MT. Little's consignment included 99 steers, averaging lO36 pounds and they were purchased by the Independent Packing Go. He IS deserving of much praise for turning out such cattle and the St. Louis mar ket would like to see a good deal more like them during the course of the year'

DISFRANCHISEMENT.

Roland F. Krebs, lumber dealer, brings this story from the south:
 There was hot local campaign on in a Mississippi town where the ne- groes numbered five to one against the whites. The Democrats put through a rule requiring each voter to show a poll tax receipt for $1. The Repub- licans immediately paid the poll tax for every negro voter in the com munity. The Democrats sent hur- ry-up call for the County Chairman and dolefully put the situation before him.
 The County Chairman learned that there were two circuses, one showing 10 miles away and the other in closer proximity to the scene of the cam- paign. He brought both shows to the town the day before election and plastered the town with posters an nouncing that poll-tax receipts would be taken for admission to either cir GUS.
 The next day the circuses had all the poll tax receipts and the Demo- cratic victory was easy.

JENNINGS BROS. CO.
 TO FILE BIG CLAIM
 FOR GRADING ELM ST.

Claiming that their property would be damaged to the extent of s6.667, representatives of the Jennings Bros. Co. las night appeared before the board of appraisal of benefits and damages at a public hearing on the proposed change in grade in Elm sreet., The board has proposed that the grade be raised six inches on he souh side of the street. The Jennings Bros. Co. officials claim if this is done it will be necessary to change the level of the sidewalk in front of their factory, change the entrance and lay a new fioor in the factory.
 uperintendent Charles Poland of the White Manufacturing CO, said the damage to the factory of his com pany would be at least $3,000 and he believed the north side of the street should be raised instead of the south side. Thomas Aforrissey, Mrs. Mary Bishop, representatives of the Univers- aIist church and of the Roach estate also declared that if the grade is changed the lower floors of their prop erty in the street will be flooded every time it rains. At present it is neces- sary to have wall in front of their property to keep out the water in wet weather.
 The board made an inspection of the grade and the street today but nc decision regarding it was reached.
