STATE POLITICS BREWING

Although the next primary elec- tion in Arkansas is still more than nine months away, the biennial spring drive" of possibilities for the various state offices is becoming wis ibIe. Many have announced, others have confided to few friends that thye are considering With two or three exceptions there will be competition for all of the state off ces.
 Interest inthe campaign probably will center in the race for governor So far only two, Secretary of State Earle W. Hodges and Dr. (. H. Brough of the University of Arkansas have definitely announced for the of flee, but it is considered more than probable that there will be at least two others in the race before many weeks. There is an air of expectan ey among politicians and it is whis- pered on all sides that something will pop" in the gubernatorial race within a few weeks. It is believed Governor Hays will be in the race. although he has given no hint of his future political plans. II is said if he is able to make the necessary ar engagements" he will be in" before many weeks. Another strong proba- bility is former State Treasurer John W. Crockett and State Senator J. NJ Futrell of Paragould, former act ing governor, is being urged by friends to enter, but so far he has declined to listen to the call. An other rumor is that either Justice W. F. Kirby or former Governor Geo w. Donaghey may run, though both have said they had no intentions of doing so. By no means an unlikely entrant is Mayor Charles F.. Taylor oi Little Rock. He has told close friends there was more than possi- bility of his entering the race. 9th CTS who have been mentioned are w. II. Arnold of Texarkana and former Congressman T. c. McRae of Prescott

WILL ASK SPRINGDALE
 FOR CONTRIBUTIONS

On next Monday the Arkansas building at the Panama-Pacific Expo sition will open it's doors to the pub lie, and if the patriotic citizens will, it will remain open to the end of the great fair. The opening is largely due to the $1 subscription campaign which is now being waged in Arkan- sas, and Springda,e will be permitted on Friday to contribute it's part to- ward the maintenance fund.
 Representative of the Arkansas Commission will be in Springdale on that day for this purpose, and each subscriber will be presented with one of the aluminium souvenir medals manufactured of Arkansas aluminium, and showing the building on one side and the state seal on the other. One medal will be given for each dol lar donated
 The trials Of the Arkansas build ling are matters of state history. The building, started by lumbermen of thf state who donated the timber and finish, was completed with the eX= pectation Of having it paid for by the Arkansas legislature. This body was pledged to it's support before the session opened It made the appro- priation-s40, ,000. One representa- tive, dissatisfied with the appropria= tion, contested it in the court, be cause had not been made by q two-thirds vote The Supreme Court sustained the contention and it was either then call the Legislature back. at an expense of S15,000, dispose of the building, which was ready to be opened, or to go before the people of the state, appealing to their state pride for the funds with which to maintain the building. The latter course adopted and in the cities visited thesresponse has been so generous that the building has at least been placed in readiness for op- eaing.
 The Arkansas exhibit is the finest Of any. The building is one of the most artistic on the grounds. and compare. .faTorably with even the larger buildings. It is the only state building unopened, but those who have seen it, and know what the Ar kansas exhibit will be, declare that the other states will soon lose the prestige gained while the building was closed, when it is ready to re ceiye visitors.
 It would be a calamity to the state U have the building close after it ha been opened, and those who are work ing on the Popular Dollar Subserip- tion campaign declare that the state pride Of the citizens will not permit this, if the ease is properly explained 10 them. It will he more fully ex- plained bg the committee which vii call on the citizens of Springdale next Friday

There is nothing that causes so much trouble among neighbors as chickens Poor chickens. If they are blamed for all the enemies they have made in this world they have scores of black marks against them. It is strange that people vii let their chickens run.

Five local men will leave here this
evening for Waterloo where they will
attend the annual meeting of the Cen

place tomorrow. Those who will at
tend from this city are NJ. E. Justice,
president Of the C. A.; Stephen Irwin.

row morning and afternoon. The an
nnal meeting of ahe baseball writer's

The meeting of tn g league directors
tomorrow is one of much importance
to the future of the Central associa-
ton. The selection tf an eighth city
to complete the circuit Of the league
is matter Of big Importance. At
present there is but one known can
didate for this berth, Mason City. 1t
is believed, however, that another city,
larger than Mason City and more IA
vorably located, will also have repre-
sentatives at the meeting. for the pur-
pose of grabbing the loo Sc franchise.
President Justice refuses to give out
any information concerning this city
but admits that he expects applica-
items from at least one other town
than Mason City.
The proposed revision to the old
rules supplanted by the celebrated
"four-man rule" enacted at the Bur-
Iington meeting last fall probably will
be brought up but it is doubtful II
any action on this will be taken. 1t
is believed the $50 guarantee rule will
also be brought before the directors
for revision by some Of the smaller
towns that wish to see. the gate re-
ceipts equally divided.
