 Coach Bob Shinn of the High school expects to enter the race for the secondary championship of the Arkansas Athletic Association. He has the largest number of candidates that ever reported at that institution for places on the team, among them being seven of last years regulars. Practice rehearsals are held every afternoon, and the team is about
 ready to take on it's first victim The schedule committees at each school are busily engaged in arrang ing games for the teams. Hendrix expects to schedule about 30 games.
 the most of which will be played on
 the home grounds. The Normal will
 play about "A games, it is said, while
 the high school will play about Is. The first game this season will be played next week between the Normal
 and the high school. The date has
 not been definitely fixed.
 The senior class of Hendrix College will begin immediately the erection of
 an up-to-date grand stand and bleach
 CTS on the college athletic field, which will probably be completed in time
 for the first game, when appropriate | dedicatorial ceremonies will be held. The stand will be given to the college as a memorial.

LOTS Of BASEBALL : HERE THIS SEASON } TEAMS WORKING HARD HENDRIX, NORMAL AND HIGH
 SCHOOL TO HAVE WINNING MINES IN FIELD,

That Conway sport will be able to see all of the baseball games they desire this season is manifest, judging from pre- season predictions made at the camps of the Hendrix College Bulldogs" the State Normal and the Conway high school. At each place it is reported that prospects for a winning team are the best in years, and the coaches of each of them are elated over the material
 At Hendrix practice was begun a week ago. More than 40 athletes have been out for work every after noon since, and several others are ex- pected to report after the second term examinations are concluded, March 20. Among the number are eight members of last years championship Bulldogs" With these men as nucleus, Coach w. M. Headrick will have little difficulty in whipping to- gether another cup-winning aggrega- tion.
 The Normal school will have crack team, judging from the material Coach Jim Cook has with which to work. He issued a call for baseball practice about week ago, and was surprised to see ;.s many candidates as were on the field the first after noon.

DONACHEY ADVOCATES
 HILL APPROPRIATION
SAYS ATTORNEY SHOULD BE PAID $25,000 FOR SERVICES
 RENDERED.

Little Rock, March 4.-Former Gov. G. w. Donaghey is advocating the passage of the bill now pending in the house, after passing the senate. to appropriate $25,O0O to pay for the services of Judge Joseph M. Hill as special counsel in the rate cases. He addressed strong letter December l6 last, to Governor Hays recommending additional compensation, and declar- ing that "a fee of S75,OOO to $1OO,- 900 would be reasonable" In a state ment just issued he says: Since this letter "as written Judge Hill has tried the Frisco case and a decision is expected within the near future. He has won the Louisiana and Ar kansas case, and the refunds are now being paid. He has consummated settlement of the Iron Mountain and Cotton Belt refund, by which the state recovers S65,000 and the ship pers and passengers will recover over half-million in refunds at once.
 ''In nly judgment, the legislature would be doing great injustice to Judge Hill not to pass the pending ap- propriation which I think is wholly inadequate.'

WHITE CAMPERS"
 WORK AT SALT|LLO
THREAT M. B. M'CLASSEN
ARREST OF HILBERT RENDER. SON, THOUGHT TO BE LEAD
 FER, EXPECTED SOON.

A warrant for the arrest of Ebert Henderson, who lives near Saltillo, 15 miles southwest of Conway, was is sued late yesterday by Justice of the Peace George M. Easterwood upon in- formation filed by Deputy Prosecut- ing Attorney P. II. Prince, who charges that Henderson was the lead CT of 6 band of white cappers' who rode to the home of B. P. McGlassen near Saltillo, Tuesday night and or dered him to leave the country within 10 days. It is said there are about 15 others involved in the affair.
 McGlassen was asleep at his home about Il o'clock Tuesday night when he was awakened and summoned to the front door. His wife answered the call after persuading him to re- main in the room Mrs. McGalssen said there were about l5 men in a possee, mounted upon horses, directly in front of the house when she ap- peared at the front door, and that one member, thought to have been Henderson, told her to tell her hus- band it would be best for him to leave that part of the country within 10 days.
 McGlassen came to Conway yester- day afternoon, informed Deputy Prince of the threats, and left last night for Little Rock, where he in- formed the federal authorities, who, it is thought, will make an investiga- tion of the affair
 The trouble is thought to be result of family feud which has existed for quite while.

ERUPTION AvfRTfD
 BY NARROW MARGIN
IN SENATE WEDNESDAY
SENATOR JONES WOULD HAVE ONLY AN ALIENIST AT HEAD
 OF INSANE ASYLUM.

Little Rock, March 4-Practicallv all of the appropriation bills were whipped into shape by the senate in a committee of the whole on Wednesday afternoon, leaving nothing but roll call upon them so they may be trans mitted to the house.
 The first bill considered was that
 for the appropriation for mainten-
 ance of the state hospital for the
 treatment of nervous diseases, and on thls an eruption was narrowly avert ed. Senator Jones sent up an amend
 ment requiring the superintendent to
 be an alienist, which would have open ed anew the squabble over the super
 intendency at the asylum, but mem
 bers of the budget committee persuad- ed Senator Jones to withdraw it be- fore it was read, and the senate pro- ceeded in peace, unaware that the ship of state had grazed a mine. The senate made no reductions from this
 appropriation, instead increasing the salary of the dentsist to place him on
 a par with the physicians there. The budget committee bill appropri- ating to pay the special judges who have served over the state for the past two years was adopted by the committee of the whole without change, as was the appropriation for the deaf mute institute. The blind school appropriation was boosted $500 to provide for the printing and distri- button of literature upon the preven- tativeness of blindness.
 Senators Burgess and Edmunds re- solved themselves into battle-axe brigade to fight the appropriation to appeal the rate litigation with the St. Louis, San Francisco railroad; S6,000 if the state loses in the fed eral court, and $1,000 if the state wins. They undertook to defeat both items, as we'll as the deficiency appro- priation to pay the rate experts who prepared the cases. Senator Edmund son stated that he was tired of mak- ing soft places for attorneys. This appropriation was necessary because an appeal must be taken in year, or the state loses it's right to go to the higher court. If the state wins in the
 lower court the heavy end of the ap- peal costs will be on the railroad, The bill was acted on favorably by the committee.
 The Branch Normal appropriation, considered in committee of the whole in the morning session, was passed, as was the deficiency approp- riation for the penitentiary.
 The appropriation for the mainten-
 ance of the Confederate home was
 adopted in the committee of the whole, without change, but amendments will be offered when it comes before the senate for passage to increase sever
 al salaries, particularly that of the superintendent.

GAZETTE SAYS C0NDRAY
 IS TYPICAL FREELANCF
FAULKNER'S MEMBER OF THE HOUSE ONE OF ABLEST DE-
 EATERS IN THAT BODY.

Representative c. E. Condray of Faulkner county is the typical free lance of the fortieth general assem- bly,. What he doesn't like he attacks and what he favors he champions with the same spirit. He is one of the ablest debaters of the house, trenchant in style and willing to fight any measure out on the motto of mo quarter" There are few general measures before the house upon which he has not decided view, and he goes straight to the point. He is a good loser, and never "gets a grouch' over defeat.
 It was at MT. Condray's instance that the state auditor was requested to file with the house tabulation showing the expenditures for state government for the last eight years, in order that the legislature might have basis for considering current appropriation bills and some cue for possible retrenchments. He was an ardent supporter of the house meas ures for the repeal of state aid to high schools and the creation of the office of state accountant, and vigor- ously opposed the Dowdy fiscal board bill, which he thought would fall far short of it's authors anticipations. He is an advocate of the bill by Senator Ruff, providing a new method for the control of the state charitable insti- tutions now pending in the house. He also is strongly in favor of giving women the right of suffrage in school elections and may yet introduce bill to this end. He is a member of the judiciary and other important con- mittees.
 MT. Condray comes from the ranks of the teaching fraternity, having been for five years at the head of the public schools of Fordyce, from which he resigned about two years ago to enter the practice of law. He is a native of Faulkner county, and re- turned to his home town, Conway, when he settled down to law as his profession. He is graduate of Ouachita College, a member of the Baptist church and 32 years of age Arkansas Gazette.

President to Urge Economy.

That presidential election is approaching is
manifest from recent conferences of democratic
leaders in congress and the word that the presi-
dent in his forthcoming message will recommend
the strictest economies in appropriations. All of
which calls attention to this forgotten and I'M
fulfilled promise of economy made in the last
national platform OF the party:
We denounce the profligate waste OF money wrung
from the people by oppressive taxation through the
lavish appropriations OF republican congresses
which have kept taxes high and reduced the purchas-
ing power OF the peoples toll We demand a return
to that simplicity and economy which befits a demo-
cratic government and reduction OF the number Of
useless Offices salaries which drain the SUBJ
stance Of the people
This, II was heralded, was one OF the pledges
made to be kept" and mot molasses to catch
flies" But how has 1t been kept? The first
democratic congress after the election appro-
priated $2,231, 100000. or $113,OoO,OOO more
than It's predecessor. which was democratic, and
$4,000, 900 more than It's last republican pre-
decessor. Congressman Fitzgerald, chairman Of
the appropriations committee. a democrat, APP
pealed to his colleagues to cut the appropriations
and declared they were mockery OF democratic
pretense, but his appeal was UNDECIDED. With
this record OF promise and lack Of performance,
IL Is not strange the party leaders and the presi-
dent should at this late day seek to make an
effort at redeeming pledges which assisted them
into office. The worst feature of the democratic
riot OF appropriations is that the really neces-
sary things were cut and the pork barrel filled
TO overlooking with resulting prospect of large
deficiency appropriations being required.
Confronted with broken promises OF economy
and treasury nearly empty, some radical re-
strietion OF appropriations can be expected, but
thoughtfu voters are likely to inquire why the
mark was not hit until just before election

OF the opinions which written must be reduced

have to be amended In many states permitting the
judges to decide cases without opinion. and reiiev
