COFFMAN FOR AUDITOR.

The candidacy of State Auditor Coffman is appealing more closely each day to the voters of the state and his nomination by an overwhelming majority may be expected.
 He is being opposed by H. c. Me Cain, Little Rock alderman, who re- gently resigned clerkship under MT. Ccfman while the latter was out of the Sfice, and immediately entered up- on a campaign against MT. Coffman, charging his superior with incompe- tency and altogether an unfit man for the position he is now holding. MA Mccain is trying to make it appear that the late lamented Col Oathout, who was elected to the office of state auditor in 1912 and died seven months later made grave mistake when he
The log cabin Democrat., 1914-03-09

selected MT. Coffman for his chief deputy, instead of himself. He is also trying to make it appear as though Governor Futrell made grevious mis- take when he appointed Chief Clerk Coffman to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Col. Oathout, instead of himself. But the well-informed voter will not be caught by MT. McCain's charges of incompetency.
 It is plainly noticed, however, that MT. Mccain is painfully silent con- cerning the puny efforts made by him. self and a few other disgruntled Lit tie Rock Democrats to disrupt the party when he signed a petition urg- ing Mayor Taylor of Little Rock to become an independent candidate for governor just before the special ele9 tion, and had they succeeded in get ting Mayor Taylor, who at that time, and is still holding an office bestowed upon him by the Democrats, into the race for governor, Mccain and those signing the petition would have sup ported him and tried to defeat Cover nor Hays, the Democratic nominee.- Van Buren Argus.

It was we'll written appeal and closed by saying: "If there is any reason why you do not buy of us, please give us your reasons in the enclosed, stamped envelope, and we will strive to remove the cause.' The physician answered as follows:
 Your letter of recent date asking why I had not traded with you for a long time, received, and as you ask me to tell you frankly why, I will give you few reasons.
 "iFrst-I am in business in this community and am looking to this community with it's varied industries for my support. I cannot ask the mer- chants of this town for their support if l do not give them mine.
 "Second-In looking over my books 1 fail to find either Mr. Sears, MT. Roebuck or other of the company's names which reminds me that neither of these gentlemen have ever given me penny's patronage. Why is this? Am l too far away, or have neither of them needed a physician, or are they afraid of the mail order plan when it comes to the practice of medicine? can certainly give as good satisfaction by mail as your house can, and will appreciate a call from either of them when in need of medical service.
 "Third-ln looking over the sub- scription lists for improving our streets and public highways, I have failed to find the name of either mem- Der of your firm down for one penny to assist in the work Also I have failed to find your name on any of the charity lists where help has been ren- dered to our poor; in other words, you are not down as contributor to oul Helping Hand Society.

At The Theatres
1.-THE WOLF"


 The Arkansas Gazette had the fol- lowing to say of the performance of "The Wolf" which appeared at the kempner Saturday matinee and night:
 1.-The Wolf was the attraction at the Kempner yesterday afternoon and night and as good a production was given as, at regular prices, could be expected. It would not be fair to make comparison between this and the high h-priced company which pre- sented it here the first time, some three seasons ago, bat it may be said that the play was intelligently pre- sented, and the scenic embellish- ment was elaborate and fitting, equal in fact to that carried by any con- pany heretofore playing it in Little Rock. Witter J. Baxter negotiated the Scotch brogue properly and gave very good portrayal of the crusty and narrow minded old Scotchman, Andrew McTavish. Sherman l.. Jones is bit shy on the French Canadian dialect, but has a good stage appearance and made good with the audience. Harry Sherwood, in the heavy role, had good concep- tion of the part, and Homer Fisk in the juvenile role, and Miss Sherwood as Hilda balanced the cast accepta- ply. Roy C. Whites bit as Batiste was well done.
