FORMER BANDIT IN
THE PRIMARIES
Al J. Jennings Wants Democratic
GubernatoriaI Nomination in
Oklahoma.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Aug. -
figured spectacularly in the political
race which ended it's first lap in the
statewide primaries today. If Al ]:
Jennings, former bandit, wins the
nomination for governor, and Sena-
tor T. p. Gore, the blind statesman,
who successfully defended himself
from Mrs. Bonds assault charge, wins
a denomination, two of the most un-
lque political campaigns in the his
tory Of America will have been sue
cessful.
Jennings has been running on a
beating back PLATFORM Gore re-
peatedly has been forced to refer to
Mrs. Bonds unsuccessful $4,000 dam
age suit for an alleged assault in a
Washington, D. c., hotel Badger
game, Gore has called it. Samuel w.
Hayes, former chief Justice Of the
state supreme court, is the blind SEN
ators opponent in the primaries. In
the gubernatorhl race opposing Jen-
nings are Charles West, attorney gen
eral; Robert l.. Williams, supreme
court Justice; +. E. Herring, mer-
chant; Robert Dunlop, state treasur-
er, and j. B. Robertson, former SUI
preme court Justice. John Fields, Re-
publican nominated in convention sew
eral weeks ago, is unopposed. J. T.
Hickman is the only Bull Moose can
didate for governor
For state officers there are more
than 200 candidates in all. Seven pres.
ent congressman are in the congress
sional race today, and in the fifth
district two congressman were Cd.
posing each other by virtue Of a ger.
rymander passed in the last legisla
ture assembling their districts. This
pair are Joe B. Thompson, Democratic
congressman-at-large, and Claude
Weaver, congressman from the fifth
district under the old district plan
alfalfa Bill" Murray is a candidate
for denomination in the third district
G. d. Carter in the fourth, Scott Fer
ris in the sixth, and D. r. Morgan ir
the eighth. Morgan is the only Re
publican. All are opposed by severa
candidates.

WH|SKEY UNCLAIMED
REMAINS At DEPOT
Ank EIkins, West Virginia, is Still
Awaiting Appearance Of
Consignee.

One hundred and siXty-three pints
of whiskey are awaiting the arrival
Of their owner at the Western Mary
land depot in IIlkins, having been
checked through from Cumberland ill
a trunk and two suitcases. One Of
the suit cases containing 81 pints,
the other, like some consumers of the
spirits, had a greater capacity for
while the accommodating trunk was
we'll filled with 96 pints. That the
packages were we'll packed is proven
by the fact that out Of the 1853 bot
ties but one was broken, despite the
usual rough handling Of the baggage
man.
The owner Of this shipment in vo.
lation Of the Yost Prohibition Law
las not yet claimed his property and
probably will not, as the penalties at
tached to this sort Of wholesale Ship
ments are rather severe. State Com
missioner Of Prohibition Fred O. Blue
has been acquainted with the facts
and searching investigation will be
made in order that the guilty par
ties may be punished and this variety
of bootlegging put to an end. It is
understood that the owner of the
packages intended to have them put
off at Gilman, where an automobile
was said to have been in waiting.
but Gilman being only flag station
at night the shipment was brought
into Elkins, and the waiting automo.
bile came back to Elkins without
dts expected additional burden.

B0rax Will Prevent The
Typhoid Fly From BREEDING

ak in large quantities does produce
gastric disturbances and for this rea-
son certain amount of care is advis-
able.
The method for using this sub.
stance in the case Of stables is t.
sprinkle the borax or colemanite III
the quantities given above, by means
Of a flour sitter or other fine sieve
around the outer edges of the pile ct
horse manure The manure should
then be sprinkled Immediately with
Two or three gallons Of water to $
bushels Of manure. 1t is essential,
however, to sprinkle q little of the
boraX On the manure as it is added
daily to the pile, instead of waiting
until full pile is obtained, because
this will prevent the eggs which the
flies lay on fresh manure from hatch
ing. AS the fly maggots congregate
at the outer edge Of the manure pile,
most Of the borax should be sprinkled
ed.
Borax costs 5 to cents per pound
in 100-pound lots in Washington, and
it is estimated that at this rate it
would cost only one cent per horse
per day to prevent all breeding OF
flies in city stables. If calcined cole
mantle is purchased in large ship
ments, this cost should be consider
ably less. At the same time, if the
toraX is used on the manure only in
the proportions stated, it's value for
u:e il the garden or for sale to far
mers will not bel essened
In view Of this discovery, there
low seems little excuse for any lorse
owner or resident Of a city allowing
typhoid flies to breed in his stable
or garbage can.
l. is believed that this information,
will greatly help the health autn. ri
ties in their campaign against the
typhoid fly. The health authorities

Railroad Assured.

IT was also learned that sufficient
capital has been raised to meet the
amount specified by Chicago promo
ters for railroad between Womble
and Mt Ida There is a line now
running between GlenWood and WOm-
ble and the survey between Womblc
and Mt. Ida was obtained in 1912 and
part of the line started but never
finished, owing to lack of funds
With the Womble Mt Ida line com
pleted. it would mean direct connec-
tions through the latter town to Glen
wood and on TO Hot Springs Then
too there is the new railroad from
Mena to this city which will also be
an important factor in the develop
ment OF territory along that route.
This line will also connect with Wom-
ble and come direct to this city.
These operations have been an incen-
tive for the land companies desirous
of getting charge for development
purposes of the 10000 acres alore-
mentioned to become active. and the
announcement that this deal has been
closed is awaited with interest.
George NJ. Thayer, Of Mena, is one
of the men interested in the Mena-
Hot Springs enterprise. On q bona
fide survey a charter for the new
road has been granted Mr. Thayer
stated that at no time has he lntl-
mated that the new road would 20
along any other than the line Of least
resistance, along the Caddo and Ma
Earn valleys. and this will open up a
territory that is considered one OF the
richest in the state.
