We prate about the ideal live stock conditions existing here, and they are here all right, con- ditions as good as the best of any state in the union, but are we utiliZ- ing them? Honest now. are not the the majority of the live stock produc- CTS of the state depending principal ly on God and the nonresident land owners to look after and feed our stock?

,,,ncE ". H. ARNOLD WILL OF JUno n HIMSELF FOR GOVERNOR

,r.om Texarkana Four States Press)
 ,o surprise to all but a few of .. ;.+;mate friends was the an- ''i' nnement made yesterday by Judge w rV H Arnold of this city that he ,,ld be a candidate before the people WA o wear from this month in the Ark onsas o state primaries for the office of governor of Arkansas.
 Jndge Arnold, who is the dean ot Ao local bar, has always been true sa s Arkansas. and always held the ;,u that Arkansas greatness should ho developed to the fullest extent, and that her great resources should ho rrasented to the world. He holds
 ,,;ow relative to the office to which bo aspires, that such office should be oorducted along safe sound, conser- rative lines, the same as a success nl business should be handled, and hoe told friends that he would not cock the office for either it's financial rotnrn or for political advancement, b,t solely on the ground that he de- sred to see future betterment in .bo state and hoped to be the man at the helm to inaugurate such better ment.
 Iudge Arnold, who Is a native of Arkansas, has always been stunch advocate of school improvement as regards the public schools of the state. holding that in such improve ment there would be built the only lasting foundation on which to build q greater state. He also believes that the tenure of office of state off cials should be four years instead of two, thus eliminating the present idea of using the first term in the office to prepare for reelection to fill the second term. In keeping with this idea Mr. Arnold also holds that one term to the executive should be sufficient
 The chief aim of Judge Arnold's candidacy is to advocate the princi- pies of state government for which he stands, and which he hopes to see put into practice.

 When woman who has three or four summer skirts tells her husband that she hasn't one that is fit to wear on the street she is often telling the truth without knowing it.
