DpeCldI lO He JOuIHal.
 Little Rock, Sept. 28.-Poli- tics is beginning to take it's ac- customed biennal stride. Elf forts to viyify it during the summer were for the mostpart futile, as the people were anxi- ous for a little rest. But now that the primaries are being set, and county politics is fur nishing an incentive, more at tention is being given to state politics.
 Webster defines politics as the science and art of govern ment," but in Arkansas it is more literally defined as the art of seeing who can run the fastest for an office. This ab- serVation will be recognized by all, however, as purely aca- demic, and as one thatcan have no influence whatever on the situation.
 The primaries are being call ed, and a large number of the counties will ignore the uni from date for the county elec- ton. Phillips opens with the earliest, then comes Chicot county on Nov. IT. The Pulaski county candidates will hold their contest on January 2,and there is already a large field of starters jockeying for positions. TheFe is less "new blood' in the running than there has been in many years, and there Is scarcely all old officer Whois not seeking another term or some other office.
 The lineup for the state of fees is assuming shape, and it is believed that the next few weeks will see all the lists con- plete.
 There has been no change in the race for governor for more than a month. There are still six candidates in the field, c. H. Brough, Earle ". Hodges, J. ". Crockett, T. C. McRae and |. C. Smith. Dr. Brough has been campaigning for sev- eral months. Mayor Taylor has been visiting around over the state and getting acquainted. Secretary of State Hodges does not neglect any opportunity to let people know he Is in the race, but announces that he will not formally open his campaign until December 10. McRae and Crockett are circulating more or less, and Judge Smith is heard from occasionally. The campaigning is not expected to become really virulent until January l. There are only three of those formerly in the prominently mentioned" class who are considered probables. They are Gov. Hays and Judge A. J. Walls. Of these, Gov. Hays Is believed to be the only one who will eventually get in- to the race.
 Conferences are being held by some of the more active candidates this week, and poli- tical ealeulators are cleaning up their typewriters for the campaign while the prophets and headquarters hangers-on
