MRS. S. A. DRENNEN DEAD

The entire community was
shocked when it wasannounced
that Mrs. S. A.Drennen died
at about 1o'clock last Saturday
at the home of her parents, Mr..
and Mrs. D. w. Grow.
She had been sick from the
birth of her baby about ten
days previously, but had i'm
proved nicely and was thought
to be almost we'll and entirely
out of danger. She had improv-
ed so nicely that DR.. Bremen
had returned to Rush, where he
moved recently, to resume his
practice.
Mrs. Drennen grew worse on
Friday and a message was sent
DR.. Bremen, but owing to the
isolated conditions surrounding
Rush the message did notreach
him until after her death.
A little more than two years
ago she was married to DR..
Bremen upon the occasion of
his graduation from the Univer-
sity Medical College in Little
Rock, the wedding takingplace
in that city Immediately follow
ing his graduation.
There has possibly not been
a more touching incident in
Newark in many years than the
death Of Mrs. Drennen, and
nothing but the thought of the
All-wise hand that removed her
can reconcile those who are so
sadly bereaVed. While she has
gone from the scenes, the con-
|flicts, the sorrows and the
pleasures Of life, she will still
live IN the hearts of those who
knew her best. She was a kind
and loving daughter and a de-
voted wife, and it was in her
home that her true worth was
most conspicuous. Her devotion
to the family circle hadno limit.
1t is sad indeed to see one so
we'll equipped for life taken so
suddenly.
A most beautiful andimpres-
.slve funeral service was con-

POLITICAL LINEUP
is NOW COMPLETE
Elimination Stage Passed and
No More Withdrawals or En-
tries Expected State Politics

he year 1910, pOlltleal
year all the way up the line has
opened in Arkansas with the
lines pretty we'll drawn. The
cards are practically complete,
and at this late day it is very
improbable that any other can
didates will appear for any
state office. Never before in the
history of the state has there
been more trying-out, back-fill-
ing, pipe-laying, fence-fixing,
Iside-stepping, than there has
been in Arkansas since promi-
Inent citizens first got the habit
of being mentioned for gov
Iernor' more than a year ago.
But now the indications are
that they have been pretty we'll
weeded out, and that the iden-
Itity of the next governor lies
among four men who are MAX
ing thorough campaign ofthe
state, presenting their claims to
the pepole. There will be no
further Withdrawals, or else
the dope-sheets are all wrong.
And the same is true of the 9TH
er state offices. While certain
good citizens have had feelers
out for some of the offices, the
fact that they have not yet an
Inounced seems conclusive that
they have not received that en-
enlargement which they con-
slider sufficient support to war
rant an entry at this late date.
AS it appears now-and this
is likely the ticket that will go
before the people on March 20
the lineup is as follows:
For Governor-Earle w.
Hodges, 7. C. McRae, C. H.
Brough, L. C. Smith.
For Secretary of State-T. j.
Terral, Jim Higgins, Y. A. Bee
son.
For State Treasurer. G..
McDaniels.
For Auditor ofState-Hogan
oliver, NJ. F. Dickinson.
For NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
er-John H. Page.
For Attorney general-Lew-
us Rhoton. John D. Arbuckle.
For Superintendent of Public
Instruction.. L. Bond, J. w.
Kuykendall.
For Land Commissioner-W.
B. Owen.
For Associate Justice-Car-
Irol d. Wood.
There are seven candidates
F for Railroad Commissioner in
the Southern District. w. G..
Brasher of Yell and OscarWinn
of Pulaski are candidates from
the Northwestern District, and
Tom Wood is unopposed from
the Northeastern district.
There are some spirited con-
tests for Congress, but Cara
way in the First, Tillman in the
Third, Wingo in the Fourth, and
JacoWay in the Fifth are unop-
posed. In the Second district A.
q. Gray is attempting to wrest
the nomination from Congress-
man Oldfield. In the Sixth,
Speaker L. E. Sawyer ofthe last
Arkansas House, and T. Havis
Nixon are opposing S. NJ. Tay-
Tor. Probably the hardest fight
of all is being waged in the
Seventh, where w. S. Goodwin
seeks a denomination, and is OPP
posed by w. F. Mcknight, R.
S. Warnock and State Senator
j. 0. A. Bush. Some of the cam
paigning in this district has al
ready reached the personally
vitriolic stage, with the pros
pect of becoming more bitter.
All efforts to resuscitate the
old Jeff Davis machine have
proven futile. AS the old farm
er remarked about the giraffe
in the circus, "There amt no
such animal" The machine has
been completely disintegrated.
