STATE GUARDS PREPARING
Preparing To Take The Field In
 SiurI Time it is Said.

Little Rock, March 27.-sSpecial. J. Tn order to insure that all organi- zations are prepared to take the field at short nctice, it is directed that the following instructions be carried out with the least delay practicable rela- tive to equipment and arms.
 This is the somewhat ominous first section of an official memoranum transmitted last night by Adjt Gen. Lloyd England of the Arkansas Ma tional Guard, to all officers and com pany commanders. It does not mean call to arms, but it is line with the policy of preparedness for any even tuality in the Mexican trouble.
 All small arms are to be placed in servicable condition, as we'll as all clothing, accoutrements. messchests, etc. Company commanders are in- stricted to see that these instructions are carried into effect at once, and that report be made upon them in no case later than April 10.
 One of the most interesting feature of the military equipment assembled a' the headquarters of the Guard is about peck of aluminium disks abou. the size of a silver dollar, each per forated with hole through which a string may be passed These are id entication checks, and are work about the necks of all soldiers who go into battle. Each disk is engraved with the name of the wearer, so that he may be identified should he fall in bat tle

ARKANSAS PROHIBITION LAW
Is Attracting Attention of The
 Outside States.

Little Rock, March 2S.-(Special)- The practical application of the Ar kansas prohibition law is attracting attention outide the state. Governor George A. Carlson of Colorado, is in correspondence with Governor Hays with reference to the enforcement of the law here. that state having gone dry on January 1, the same day as Arkansas
 Gov. Hays has written Gov. Carl son that the only trouble that Is ex- perienced in Arkansas is with a few bootleggers and blindtigers, and that the law is being generally and thor oughly obeyed. The fact that any vio- lation is a felony is having a very wholesome effect.
 Gov. Carlson writes that the Colo rado authorities are meeting with great success in the enforcement of the law" and he adds:
 However, there are several pretty forms of violations that give us some trouble. For example, we have a provision in our law, which makes 1t unlawful to advertise intoxicating H. quors or tc solicit it in any way. Mall order houses are sending their adver- Using matter through the mails into the state and we have been unable to prosecute because it has been lmpos- sible to get these violators into the state. We are being given some tro- uble by the sale of bitters, malt ex- tracts, and alleged medicines, which have considerable alcoholic content"
 Arkansas is having the same ex- peIience as Colorado in the matter of mail order houses, which are flooding the state with their literature, and there is no way to reach them.

HONEST WEIGHTS
AND MEASURE
WEEK

SACRAMENTO Oct r. = The
State Department CT Weights and
Measures, in cooperation with all
County Departments, is preparing to
inaugurate an "Honest Weights and
Measure Week." beginning Sunday
October % Charles G. Johnson, the
State Superintendent has appealed to
the clergy throughout the state to
make Honest Weights and Measures"
the sub est of their sermons on Octo-
Der 90
During the week ali we. .ghts ard
measure officials will lecture in the
schools throughout the state on the
weights and measures, and will dem
cnstrate their commercial employ
ment. All Merchants Associations,
Chambers of Commerce, and mer-
chants in the state will be enlisted in
the campaign for honest weights and
measures.
"The success Of honest and leg.ti-
mate trade demands accurate weights
and measures and the honest employ,
n,ent of correct weighing apparatus,
says superintendent johnson.
"The purchasing public, which is
chiefly concerned, should seriously
interest itself in honest weights and
measures. More commercial miscon-
duct in weights and measures is due
to carelessness and ignorance than to
any other cause. Honest merchants
invite your concern and cooperation;
there should be no others.
''To be honest for policy's sake is
an old and worn out adage. Honesty
ir trade should be a principle, not a
policy"
