AND ACT
 BRINGING OUT GOOD VOTE

Little Rock, Sept 14.-Were it not for the Municipal Bond Amendment, No. 14; and Publicity Bill, Act No. 8, there would be little interest in the election which is being held today. The friends of these measures are working zealously, and getting as large turnout as possible in order to roll up the majority,
 Gov G. w. Hays left on an early morning train for Camden to cast his vote, and many of the other state officials who hold their citizenship in other counties, have also gone home to vote.
 There is no chance for one of the minority parties to break the Demo cratic ranks, but reports from sev- eral counties indicate that there are chances of independents defeating the party nominees.

With the cutting off of importations Of many mineral products the United States Geological Surveys list of mineral producers becomes an impor- tant source of public information. In response to specific inquiries address ed to the Director of the Survey at Washington, concerning the location Of mines of any kind tributary to any particular market, extracts can be fur nlshed from this list. The list is not published one, as it includes about ~'OOO names and addresses of pro- aucers and Is constantly being revised. lne changes each year amounting to 70 per cent of the list.

SEED WINTER OATS
 WITH THE DRILL
(By L. W. Osborn. Assistant Agron-
 omist, Ark, Experiment Station.)

The growing of winter oats is not entirely without risk. The dang CT from winter killing becomes great CT as one goes northward and the Southern sections of Missouri seem to be uppermost limits for the crop. With proper cultural preparations the danger from winter killing can be greatly reduced. Best results are se- cured by drilling oats on well pre- parody seed-bed rather than broad casting them The drill leaves the land rough with the seed uniformaly distributed along the bottom of the small ditches. This affords consider able protection from winter killing
 The writer observed fields last winter in which winter killing was entirely confined to plants exposed on smooth ground and small elevations.
 The variety of winter oats to plant will depend upon the section of the State where they are to be grown. Experiments reported in Bulletin No. 118 show that turf oats are most hardy and give best results in the northern sections of the state There are number of strains of turf oats on the market under various names, such as Winter Turf, Virginia Turf, Winter Gray and Snoma either one of which will give satisfactory results In the other sections of the state the Red Rust proof oats seem quite hardy and give good results.

IMPORTS OF SALT

Common salt continues to be inn ported in considerable quantity, more than million barrels coming to At lantic ports last year, according to the United States Geological Survey. The country is amply able, however, to supply the entire home demand, as the capacity of its salt mines and works is in excess of the present out put. The imports last year were only 3.2 per cent of the total consumption, whereas in 1890 the percentage was 172.

There is not T loaf upon the cotton, and the en- fire top crop has gone along With tbo leaves.

 The Little Rock correspondent of tba News has been in all sections of the state in the past two weeks, and in three days time had travelled from the western to the eastern border, and from the Missouri line to Tex srkana. and in these three days the work seems to have been done by the worms.
 The correspondent was informed at Helena by leading citizen who had just returned from Chicago, where he discussed the cotton situation with prominent fnanciers, that these finan- cers were advising their clients to put all their ready money into cotton at s and 10 cents per pound. They ad- yocated the purchase of the actual cot ton, and the storing of it until the price turns upward.

APPEAL TO THE SUPREME
 COURT IS VERY PROBABLE

Little Rock, Sept. 14.-lt is probable that an appeal will be taken to the Supreme Court in a final effort to save the life of Arthur Hodgins the young man convicted of murdering Constable Morgan Gardner at Amity about year ago. Hodgins was re- gently given a trial at Philadelphia to pass upon his sanity, and after hear ing evidence from alienists, the jury rendered verdict showing Hodgins not to be insane, but mentally unde- veloped. This will not save his life, for it did not prove him to be insane when the crime was committed.
 Grover C. Owen made the plea for Hodgins in his first appeal, but is no longer connected with the case IIod- gins in still in the Clarke county jail, Iut will probably coon be returned to the penitentiary to remain until his caSe is finally disposed of. lIodgins is the youth who murederod the off cer who was taking him to jail to await trial OF a trivial charge. Elf forts have been made to show that he h2s been insane since childhood

ties of postmaster of Phoenix tomor- TOW. There are a number of reasons why this should be so. 1 shall name two.
 Tt is certainly gratifying to be dentified-though in an humble way with the ablest national admins t"ation since the time of Lincoln.
 Not only has MT. Wilson displayed the keenest intellect and finest per scnality of any president for gen. eration, he has also shown that he possesses magnificent executive and administrative ability.
 He has gathered around him as lis advisors the strongest cabinet that ever has shared the responsi- biIities and honors of a national ad- ministratiOn.
 Among the very ablest of these is Postmaster General Burleson. Under his brief administration the parcel post has been inaugurated and ex- tended to its present splendid pro portions. It is hoped that he will re . main in office until his proposal tha+ telephone and telegraph lines come under the control of the postoffice department, becomes an accomplished fact
 Acquisition of these -avenues of communication and intelligence by the government must come sooner or later-the sooner the better.

SHRINE CORNER
 STONE LAYING
Masonry Will Be Ready by
 Sunday Morning and Nobles Will Gather to See Past Grand Com mander Shaw Lay Stone

Preparatory to the laying of the Center near the School of Music the Clinton Campbell company yesterday placed the foundation and the prelim- mary masonry.
 Promptly at eleven o'clock on the morning of Sunday. October 4th, the members of the local shrine will as semble at the building lot where cere- monies will precede the placing of the first bit of masonry in the big audi tOrium. The stone will be laid by Past Grand Commander Shaw of the Blue Lodge of Masons.
 All members of the Shrine In Ari- zona have been notified that the event is planned for the hour and they have been asked to be there with fez and dress suit so that the motion picture to be taken of the event will be in every way a credit to the local body.
 The Hearst Selg News company of New York will have representative ies of pictures beginning with the lay ing of the cornerstone and ending with the departure of the imperial train from the Grand Canyon
 This picture is to become the prop erty of the Phoenix temple when the Hearst Selig people have passed it in their weekly review and it is eX- pected that much benefit will be de- rived from the exhibition of the sub ject in this state and in the Masonic temples throughout the land.
