"F. H. Ford, who has been cash
Ter of the Bank of Brinkley for sew
eral years past, has since coming
here proven himself to be one of the
finest young business men ever in
Brinkley. Besides being a most eff
cient and successful cashier be is a
citizen who stands four square to
the front in every way.
In the fights and movements tend
ing to the betterment of morality,
higher and better citizenship. Mr..
Ford has always lined up with those
in the fore ranks and both by his per-
sonal efforts and financial help has
set an example to other young men.
Mr.. Ford is broad gagged, liberal
spirited, honest and sincere in his
every dealing.
Not only will the board of direc-
tors whom he has served SO faithfully

but the entire good citizenship of

hope for his return here at some fu-

SENATOR STONE FLAYS
DEMOCRATIC BOILERS
Plans to Save Shipping Bill Are Not
Vet Complete-Administra-
ton Hopeful.

Washington, Feb. 4.-Plans Of ad-
ministration democrats to drag the
government ship purchase bill out of
danger in the senate had not been
completed last night, but champions
of the measure had not abandoned
hope that a way would be found to
recommit the bill with definite in
structions for it's amendment.
Recalcitrant democrats flatly re-
fused to yield to concessions agreed
upon by the majority in secret eau
Gus Tuesday night, and administra-
ton leaders found they could not
muster enough votes to defeat the
coalition of republicans and insur-
gent democrats who insist on send
ing the bill back to committee with
out instructions. That would mean
it's death for the session.
Instead of pressing their plan to
recommit with instructions, there
fore, the party leaders %contented
themselves with c%astigating in the
open senate the seven democrats
who overturned the shipping bill pro-
gram last Monday. Senator Stone,
selected for this undertaking, held
the floor several hours, bitterly de-
nouncing the seven insurgents as the
''recreant democrats who had endeav-
ored to unhorse their party"
Senator Stone particularly attacked
Senator Clarke of Arkansas, whom
he described as the leader in the re-
volt, and Senator Camden of Ken
lucky. He charged that Senator
Clarke had violated a caucus pledge.
That the Arkansas senator denied,
explaining he had warned his col
leagues that he would not be bound
to any action which would deprive
him of his right to vote against the
bill.
While Senator Stone was speaking
Senators Kern, Simmons, Fletcher,
Martin and others were at work to
~forestall a vote until absent demo-
Gratis could return to Washington, or
assurances could be secured that
enough progressive republican sup
port could be counted on to insure a
majority.
Last night the democrats counted
on Senators Norris and LaFollette to
vote with them, but had ceased to
hope for the support of Senator Ken
yon. Senators Lewis and Smith of
South Carolina, absent democrats,
are expected back today. With these
votes leaders hope the bill may be
recommitted with instructions for its
return within As hours with amend
ments limiting to one year the term
for which the government might lease

who have grown tired of welded
bliss and wish to become free once
more, asking him for advice as to
what course they should pursue.
Many tell him that the main reason
for wanting a divorce is to get mar
ried again. OF curse they have a
eason to put before the court. He
invariably grants a divorce to a per-
sol who is honest enough to state
that he is DESTROYS of trying another
leap into the dark. The Judge seems
to like to see fellows leap thusly.
Judge HUMPHREYS is now serving
his third term of six years each as
chancellor of this district, having
been reelected twice without oppo-
sition. He is contemplating making
the race for congress two years
hence. He was grand master of the
Odd Fellows of Arkansas from 1908

acre farm, where he is demonstrating
successfully the benefits of farm life.

Republican senators last night
were hopeful that Senator Penrose
would be able to reach Washington
today, adding one more to their
forces. His presence, they declared,
would give them enough votes to re-
commit the bill without instructions.
Should the effort to amend the bill
and return it within As hours C
coed, however, republican leaders de-
clare their attack on it will be re-
sumed and kept up until it either is
withdrawn or it's passage blocked by
the death of the session March 4.
I'VE are through caucusing," Sen
ator Kern, the majority leader, de-
clared last night, "and expect to
make progress tomorrow. The ship
ping bill is not dead by any means.
In denouncing his seven democrat
ic colleagues Senator Stone charged
them with open hostility to their
party. He also made a vigorous de-
tense of the administration, assert
ing he would rather follow President
Wilson's leadership than that of
"Elihu Root, Henry Cabot Lodge,
Theodore E. Burton, William Edgar
Borah, Jacob Gallinger or any recre-
ant alleged democrat who goes about
with a dagger in his sleeve"
Referring to Senator Camden's
secret conferences with opponents of
the shipping BILL" the speaker said
there chad been doubling Thomases
who whispered that if the issue we're
sharply drawn between the vested in
terests and the masses of the people,
the senator would be most active"
Senator Camden replied briefly,
saying he was willing to leave his
legislative sluggishness to his friends
and neighbors to determine, but that
wnen it came to "denouncing secrecy,
it comes with i'll grace from the SEN
ator from Missouri, who is known the
wrold over as Gum Shoe Bill"
Earlier in the day the senate de-
bated without action resolutions Of
fered by Senator Burton asking the
secretary of the treasury what ships
had been offered to the government
in connection with the shipping plan,
and requesting Secretary Bryan to
state what intimation, if any, the
state department had as to the prob
able attitude of belligerent govern
ments toward purchase of interned

ment last night denying that he was
opposed to the shipping bill.
