Now that practically all Europe
has been plunged into war over a
pretext that must be conside red tri-
fling-indeed absolutely contemp'
tible in view of the untold human
misery inyolved-it is. to be hop
ed that fair-minded Americans Will
begin to estimate more at their
true value the wisdom and justice g e
that policy Of watchful waiting
which has proved SO successful IN

Organizing For Clark.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, March 16.-Bus- mess men of all kinds are organ izing in Pulaski county to roll up the majority for Senator Clarke at the polls next week. At a recent caucus there were the most prominent attorneys of Little Rock, ministers, bankers, and mechanics in great numbers. Among the mum Der were mem- bers of the supreme court. Judge Kirby is a member of this body, but the majority is supporting Senator Clarke, and doing it O. penly. They have volunteered for work at the polls if the cam paign managers deem it neces- sary. They have been told that the race was too one~sided to de- mand their personal efforts at the polls.

James Riley Mayhan.

The sad news of the death of J. R. Mayhan reached this city in telephone message to rela- tives Monday morning. Death came to him at 9 o'clock this morning at the home of his brother, Henry Mayhan, on Booker street at Little Rock, af- ter an illness of several months. At the request of the deceased the burial will be at Little Rock, the Masonic Lodge of that city to have charge of the service.
 MT. Mayhan was for a long number of years a citizen of our city, filling many of it's most prominent offices, among which was city recorder and treasurer, and he was also chief of the fire department.
 The deceased was 32nd de- gree Mason and had the honor of serving as Grand Master more than once. He was also a member of the Methodist church and during the erection of the present building had a beautiful memorial window placed in the church in memory of his de- ceased wife.
 The news of his death brings sorrow to bis friends here who remember him as a true, gener- cur friend whom they will know no more.
 He is survived by two daugh- ters, Mrs. Hylas Styles, who was with her father when the end came, also Mrs. Clarence Grif- fin, who is very i'll with typhoid fever and will not know of her fathers death until she gets better. The sympathy of their friends goes out to them in this great sorrow.

Want Women CensOrs.
Special to Independent.


 Little Rock, March 14.- The City Federation of Women's Clubs are asking the authori- ties for the appointment of at least two women on the board of censors for the purpose of cen soring all the pictures that are shown in the city. There are four moving picture houses in Little Rock, and Mayor Taylor has pointed out that they would have an endless task in passing upon about seventy-fve reels per week.
 The women insist that there are great many pictures too immoral for children to see, and that pictures should possess an educational value rather than to be of nature that will appeal to the baser passions. It is prob- able that a conference will be held in the near future between the ladies interested in the pro- posed reforms, and the city off, cials and the proprietors of the moving picture houses to dis cuss this and other features of the business.

Act Has Proven a Joke.
special to Independent.

opecldI tO 1nQepenQenC.
 Little Rock, March 13.-Some radical changes in the corrupt practices act will be proposed to the next legislature, for it is ad- mltted that the one now in use Is little more than joke. Some legislation must be enacted which will really limit the ex- penditure of candidate, and what his friends may spend in his behalf. There is now no limit upon the expenditure by outsiders in the interest of a candidate, so money is now being spent in great quantities by in- direct means, which brings the same results.
 Ton after ton of literature in the interest of candidates, is now being mailed from Little Rock, and this literature runs as much to the ton in gold, as the richest metal ever mined in Cali fornia or Alaska.
 One candidate who has sent broadcast thousand upon thous- and circulars of circulars, made a state race twenty years ago, in which he had printed only 2,O0O circulars, and less than 1000 of these were distributed. The present style of campaigning was introduced by Gov. George w. Donaghey in his first race for governor, and the only way to retire it from vogue, IS to legislate against it. A number of those who expect to be candidates in the future will take the matter up before the coming legislature in an effort to reach solution.

To Witness Further Races.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, March 16,-Their appetites whetted for automobile speeding by the exhibition runs on Gaines street last Friday, hundreds of Little Rockers will Tuesday morning go to Hot Springs to participate in the fes- tivities which will mark the St. Patrick's day celebration there. The dedication of the Memphis, Dallas & Gulf railroad will take place in the forenoon, and the automobile races in the after noon. Disbrow and the other famous auto race drivers, who

The Close Of the Campaign. Special to Independent.

Little Rock, March 16.-How to doge Senator Clarke and speak in Little Rock on the night before the primaries, is a ques- tion which is now the chief source of worry to the campaign managers for Judge Kirby. If they secure a hall the voters of Pulaski county will demand that Senator Clarke be given a division of time. If the weather is suitable for outdoor speaking there is no law which will pro- hibit Senator Clarke appearing at the same time with Judge Kirby, and the people here want to hear him speak jointly with his opponent.
 Judge Kirby does not want to get in the same county with Senator Clarke. Pinned down to the same plaform with Sena- tor Clarke, he would be depriv- ed of his entire speech, for no man could appear before his op- ponent with such a conglommer- ation of libel, islander, and base less assertions as Judge Kirby has liberated on the stump in practically every county in the state.
 Judge Kirby has never ad- vanced any reason why the vot- CTS of Arkansas should elevate him to the United States Sen ate. so far as personal Qualifi- cations and party allegiance is concerned. He has made his en- tire campaign upon villification, and an effort to arouse personal and locality prejudice. In some places he has succeeded in bol- stering his cause with the aid of disappointed candidates for government appointments, but the voters know why they are active, and allow for their inter est.
 Senator Clarke would go a long way to meet Judge Kirby, and give a bond of any amount that he would not attack him personally, nor would he utter anything but what he could prove before any court to be the truth.

Paragould Highway Chartered. Special to Independent.

ParagOuld Highway Chartered. Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, March 16.-Reu- ben G. Dye, commissioner of State Lands and Highways, has sent to Paragould the charter for the Paragould and Hopkins Bridge highway, which will be the first district created under the Smith state highway bill. The district is known as High way District No. 1. c. w. High fill of Paragould one of the state highway commissioners, was in Little Rock Sunday, and will have personal charge of the cir culation of the petition among the property owners in the dis trict. As soon as a majority of the property owners have sign ed, the matter will be taken into termine the legality of the court, in a friendly suit, to de- Smith act.
 There has been considerable discussion about the validity of the Smith bill, it being contend ed in many sections that high way districts cannot be formed under it. The test in District No. 1, which will go to the su- premfe court, will settle this, and if the legality of the bill is sus- tained, many other districts in the state will be formed.
