Senator Clarke won out over Kirby, perhaps rightully but the News Herald is yet incl ned to believe that Kirby was hornswoggled out of some votes, all right.-GraYett News.
 No evidence has ever been submit ted showing that Judge Kirby was deprived of any votes that were cast for him. There is a well defined sus- pieion, however. that in certain coun- ties of tho state elections are not properly conducted, but so far as the recent primary is concerned Senator Clarke was probably ehornswoggled' out of as many votes as was Judge Kirby.

ARKANSAS APPLE CROP.

That Arkansas, and especially Northwest Arkansas is one of the greatest factors Of the United States in=the production of apples will be asain demonstrated this year. When ole speaks of points like Bentonvflle Rogers, and other points in Benton county, or of Springdale, Fayette- vile, Johnson, Pennington, and other points in Washington county, one thinks Of apples and other fruits. This year the harvest promises to be more boantiful and now that more of the growers are spraying and using other Up to-date methods in producing their apple crop and will also use better methods of packing, grading, the re dts are becoming more and more profitable to the growers and the markets of the country are more and more asking for Arkansas ap- pies In q trip to Benton and Wash ington counties q few days ago We fognd that in nearly all cases or c4ards that had been well cared for are loaded with splendid fruit. Of course where the spraying was de laxed or 10 spraying done the ene- mics of the apple have gotten in. their work. Mr. H. W. Gipple, Ben taa4ile, one of the commercial apple kings, estimated the 1914 apple crop ia Washington and Benton counties about 4,040 cars. This estimate in eIades the commercial product, and the enormous quantities that will b' used by the evaporator, vinegar and elder plants, home consumption, etc. Other aatHoritIess like Capt. Geo. T.
 lincoln, N. l.. Almonds D. l.. Ei- cher, and many others estimate that we shall have bumper crop unless unforeseen problems come up. Ne place the apple crop of 19l4 from Arkansas at 5.000 cars, representing d value of several million
 The crop of cherries, strawberries, blackberries, plums, and other fruits will swell the total figures for the Arkansas fruit crop into many fig ures. The fruit section of Northwest Arkansas is becoming noted for it's progressive growers. industrious towns and communities. good roads good schools, and all that makes for citizenship and good homes. Nature has given this section wonderful climate, pure, sparkling spring wa ters and rich, fertile soil underlaid with limestone, that will produce a great variety Of fruits and farm products .-Ft.

SIR EDWARD GREY TELLS DE RI FuSlNG 
 GERMAN REQUEST

.f
 { London, Aug. S.-aAnswering a ques- tfOn in the House Of Commons today, Sir Edward Grey. the British foreign secretary, declared he had seen an in complete publication by the German government purporting to contain Ger tain proposals alleged to have been made with the idea of securing French and British neutrality during the war. 8 The eipcarastan Sir Edward said, were as follows:
 Itiwas reported to him one day that the German ambassador in London had suggested that Germany might remain neutral in ;l war between Rus ria and Austria-Hungary if Great Britain would remain neutral and se- Ncure the neutrality of France The foreign secretary replied that this seemed possible. It transpired, how ever, that the German ambassadors $ proposal was that Great Britain sh ould remain neutral and secure the neu- trality of France if Germany went to war with Russia- This was quite a different proposition, the foreign sec retary continued, and ff in view. of Frances alliance with Russia, one which could not be entertained.
 As soon as the misunderstanding was cleared up the German aInbassa- dor sent an explanatory message to Berlin saying that the German tele- gram had not been pu blished, although one based on the initial nisunder- standing had been given out

DEPENDS ON ITS ALLIES TO
 HOLD 10 DEFENSE

London, Aug 28gThe Times mili- tary correspondent, in discussing the situation on the French frontier says. .F The news that the allies have re- tired to the line from Le Cateau to Cambrai shows that the active de- fense of the. line from Lille to Mau- beuge has been abandoned and that these two Actresses have been left temporarily to look after thems elves.
 .'The necessity for holding the i1l- terval between the Scheldt and Cam brai and the Sanbre, near Le Cateap probably is due to the need for hold. ing Mezieres.s Once this point goes or the Mause between Mezieres ana VerdUn is penetrated by the invaders, the whole system of frontier defense of eastern France breaks down and if the field armies are inferior to the enemy, nothing remains but retreat to the falaises of Champagne.
 If this line is skillfu11ys defended, it should be most difficult to penetrate, Lafere Laon and Rheims which are provided with permanent fortifications. But we are not at that point yet.
 The line from Le Gateau to Com, brai must expect an enveloping attack on the north but this attempt prob ably will fail
 We have every right to expect sue cess today hut, if we do not win a decisive victory, we must abandon our bases on the coast north of the mouth Of the Sornne. and shift further south, either to Hayre or &Gherbourg.
 If we are unable to resume the of fenstve and beat back the German at tack from the north. .&one scensequence. will be that the Germans will establish air craft stations along the straights of Dover and thereby be able to keep us under constant Observation.
 i've must meet this by a counter attack with searchlights and artf-air craft guns. Sportsmen should m alze up practice parties for airship shoot ing.
 The Germans also will mount their heaviest guns at any point they seize and once more there will be an army encamped .on the heights of Bou- 1ogne
