plete returns from three-fourths of
the counties of the state it is indi-
Gated that Senator Cummins has been
reelected by plurality of $4,000 to
10000. and Gov. Clarke has won by
from $4,000 to 10000 The rest of the
republican ticket has been carried to
victory with them by 10000 to $4,000.
Victory is indicated for at least ten
of the republican congressional candi.
dates, with the Second district still in
doubt. A summary early to-day gave
Clarke 5000 votes in scattering re-
turns from 70 counties, Hamilton T.
537. In the same precincts two years
ago Clarke had 6,727 and Dunn 1903.

Clarke was slightly over 10 votes to
the precinct, which would give him a

 The hotel building construct ed by the late Capt. J. H. Me Hugh, was the property of his daughter, Mrs. Katherine c. Creighton of Omaha, Nebraska. It cost $6,500 and was insured for S5,000 being a total loss.
 Miss Willie Smith had a room in the hotel, but was visit ing in Little Rock and lost all her belongings.
 On every other night the past week, all the upstairs rooms were filled with guests and the fire on any other night, might have cost several lives, so quick ly did it spread.

Southern Congressman United.


 Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Oct. 17.-"We have every Southern Congress man standing up like one man, and fighting for the Henry bill to save the Southern cotton grower" reports H. s. Mobley, president of the Arkansas Far mers Union, who has just re- turned to Arkansas after a two- months spent in Washington working in the interest of legis- lation that will assist the plan- ter to hold his cotton.
 "The Arkansas Congressmen and senators are all for this bill and they are remaining right on the job to put it over if possible We have all Southern represent atives for the one bill now and l believe we will muster a suffi- cient number of Western and Middle Western votes to make the $250,000,000 appropriation necessary to protect our cotton interests. The only thing l fear is an adjournment. The North members of Congress are fight ing to force an adjournment, but I hardly believe they can suc- cessfully oppose our hard fight ing Southerners."
