scheme of the p~ostoffiee department
to displaee $1,000 rural mail car
riers by recognizing the rural routes
for automobile delivery of mails. in
stead of by horse delivery.
Under pretense of extending the
service two horse routes were to be
combined into one motor route. By
an interesting fiction the new motor
route would pay a higher salary than
either of the old horse routes. and
tansfers could not be made from
lower to higher salaries. according
to the postoffice 'reorganized.' This
scheme would have thrown out A.
900 carriers and by technical con-
struction made $4,000 vacancies. II
the postoffice authorities so desired
they could have given these jobs to
democrats only. Who doubts that ev-
cry one of these places would have
been filled by a deserving demo-
erat'? 1t was only a vigorous fight
by republican members in the house
that this vicious scheme was defeat
ed.
In 1908 President Roosevelt
placed 1896 ~fourth-class postmas-
tiers in the classified service. October
1912. President Taft placed 1926
f%ourth-class postmasters in the clas-
sifed service, which put all of this
class of officials under the mantle of
the civil service. December Z, 1912,
Taft placed all artisan positions in
navy yards in the classified service.
This included approximately 10000
skilled mechanics.
Republican administrations have
always labored TO extend the civil
service. Verify il is a far cry from

of the last democratic platform is as

I'VE denounee the p%rofigate

through the lavish appropriation OF
republican congresses, which
has kept taxes high and reduced the

THURSDAYS GAME
 MAY CO TORuSTON

The Louisiana-H Hendrix football con- test, scheduled to be staged here on Thanksgiving Day, will be transferred to Ruston unless a sufficient number of tickets is sold by tomorrow after noon to meet the expenses of bringing the team here. When the game was scheduled, the two cent rate was in force, and the Hendrix authorities guaranteed the Louisianans enough to bring them here at that time. But with the increased rate, the Ruston aggregation refuses to make the trip unless expenses are guaranteed. The students this morning called a meet ing and it was decided to have tickets printed and offer them for sale in and effort to raise sufficient funds. If you want the game played here, Coach Headrick suggests that you buy a ticket at your earliest convenience. If played at Conway, the game will start at 2:30 p. m. Tickets are on sale at 50 cents each.

fINDLfY DAMAGE
 SUIT UP TUESDAY

The case of o. P. Findley against six Conway men, in which the plain tiff has sued for $25,OOO damages, is set for trial tomorrow in United States district court at Little Rock, and the defendants together with a number of witnesses from this city will be in attendance. The suit is based upon a telegram with refer ence to the attack upon President J. J. Doyne's administration of the Ar kansas State Normal last summer, when 2l Conway citizens sent mes sage to the board of trustees endors- ing MT. Doyne and condemning an adverse report made on his work by Findley.
 Only six of the 21 who signed the message were sued by Findley, these being L. H. Pyle, Frank Farris, V. D. Hill, s. G. Smith, J. F. Little and Frank E. Robins The suit was brought in federal court by Findley on the allegation that he is a citizen of Texas, although at the time it was filed he was holding the office of dep uty state superintendent of public in struc,ion under Supt George B. Cook.

 Mir. Leverett says that buyers from all over the United States are flock ing to the Arkansas coal fields and offering fancy prices, for the fuel. The scarcity in the north and east, he was told, is due to the mines of that section contracting their output to the big munitions factories and steamships. A coal famine which will be felt severely throughout the nation is predicted to occur before the winter ends.

PBiDICTS SUCCESS FOX HENDRIX FUND LINEUP A STRONG ONE Dr. ]. II. Reynolds Discusses Half Million Doliar Campaign Being
 Put on for College.

With aa organization fully as strong as the one in Texas which raised in one year one million dol lars for Southern Methodist Un.ger- sity, Hendrix College. Dr. j. H. Key holds predicts #lsh the proper 9eara work will bring to a successful con- .ciusiaa the campaign n9W being .]umehed b ra5e au additional 5aa- .0J0 endowment and building fund for the Conway institution.
 "Dr. James Thomas, Commander in-Chicf, Dr. r. s. Il. Johnston, Mir F. D. Irvine, Rev W B Ilubbell and Rev. II. F. Buhler-this is the line up for the Hendrix campaign" said Dr. Reynolds. With the approval of Bishops Mccoy and Mouzon these men will go into the field after con- ference and will devote the whole of next year to the campaign for a half-million dollars, one hundred thousand of which will be given by the General Education Board.
 "The calling of these four men into the field shows the importance which the Hendrix authorities attach to the campaign These men will make a great team. They are men who do not go into thing lightly. Indeed, they regard Hendrix College as the most important problem before Ar kansas Methodism, otherwise they would not have accepted the call
 Do our Methodist people appre- ciate the importance of this move ment? Its success means that Ar kansas Methodism has built up the first and only great permanent college in the state; it further means to in sure Methodism a commanding lnfiu- ence in the state for all time to come. Glance again at the line up. It will hearten you.
 "The general-in-chie stands out conspicuously as the financial states man of the Little Rock conference. Dr. Johnston occupies the same posi- tion in the North Arkansas. MT. E. D. Irvine, as manager of the Waters Pierce Oil Company, proved himself one of the big business men of the state. He is seasoned veteran and his counsel is already apparent in the business like organization of the cen tral office of the movement in Little Rock. For several years MT Hubbell has been business manager of the col lege and has established good repu- tation as a successful business man. Rev. H. F. Buhler is one of our most successful pastors and efficient work CTS. He will be tower of strength. These names are proof of the import ance and magnitude of the campaign as well as guarantee of it's success. Texas Methodism never had strong lineup when they raised a million dollars for Southern Methodist Uni verslty. Arkansas Methodism is on the eve of great things. We have four great coaches. Let us learn and obey their signals. If we have team work throughout the church. l2 months heRee we will have raised the half-millioa dollars"
