PLANNING FOR "AR-
 KANSAS ON WHEELS"
w. E. Folsom and T. E. Wood EndeavOring to Tour Number States With Exhibition Better Than Heretofore Next Oct.

If the plans of the promoters, w. B. Folsom, of the Brinkley Argus, and T. E. Wood, of the Arkansas Railroad Commission, are carried out, the fin |, ever left the state, will tour the east in October.
 In 1910 Mir. Folsom worked out a plan which sent train to the north, advertising the resources of Arkan- sas. Other trains, also under the management of Editor Folsom, later visited different sections, and thous- ands of people who visited them, sec ing the wonderful products of this state, came to Arkansas.
 The train will go through Missis- sippi, Alabama, Georgia, and then up the Atlantic seaboard to Washington, passing through the Carolinas. In Washington representatives, officials and committees from the headquarters of various immigration societies of New York, Philadelphia, and Boston will visit the train and discuss plans to locate colonists in Arkansas. In past years individual exhibits were displayed on the train. This year the spirit of commercialism will be dispensed with, and the cities and counties will be asked to act for their communities. This plan will enable the promoters to gather the choicest products. and to thus make it pro- ject for the entire state, instead of an individual advertising proposition.

l44,3S2 VOTES CAST
 IN RECENT PRIMARY
w. B. Owen, Commissioner of State Lands, Led Ticket President Wilson Received 1895 Scratches.

l The official returns from the recent primary election show that there were 1895 votes cast against Presi- dent Woodrow Wilson No one else appears to have been voted for, how ever, although one Pulaski county farmer admits that he voted for Senator James F. Clarke It is not clear just what they expected to gain by scratching the Presidential candi- date, but there were evidently nearly two thousand citizens of the state who desired to register their protest against his foreign policies, his sec ond marriage, or some other fact he could not commend.
 The unopposed ticket was led by w. B. Owen, Commissioner of State Lands, who received 1882 votes, being 129 more than cast for Rufus c. Mcdaniel, for State Treasurer, and 1 3,i9f in excess of those cast for Car roll D. Wood, for Associate Justice. John H. Page, for Commissioner of Agriculture, led the opposed ticket with a total of 92,S50, and J. L. Bond was next with S8,901 for State Sup erintendent of Public Instruction. w. V. Powell, Industrial Commissioner for the Cotton Belt, led the list of seven for Delegates at large to the National Democratic convention, and Sheriff w. G. Hutton of Pulaski Co., was a close second. The other two members of the Big Four are Jerry South of Mountain. Home and Wash ington, D. C., and Judge w. H. Ar mold of Texarkana.

HOME GROWN STRAW-
 BERRIES PLENTIFUL
Twenty-Five Crates Received To- day From Farm West of City Bringing Good Prices-Ra- dish Shipments Continue.

The local market is now supplied with home grown berries and the de- mand just about equals the supply. Today there were twenty-five crates gathered from the strawberry farm of Sam T. White two miles west of the city and some were brought in from other growers near Prescott. The price these berries are bringing is 20 cents per box or two boxes for 35 cents. Tomorrow shipments will be made to other points.
 While several cars of radishes have been shipped from Prescott, there continues to be a large number of barrels to go from here daily. The growers, while they are not receiving as much for radishes as they did at first, are getting satisfactory price for them.

INVESTIGATION OF
 CHARGES RESUMED
May Conclude Examination To- mOrrOw-GOvernOr'S Decision Expected Immediately After Will Remove Officials.

Little Rock, April 2O.-The investi- gation of the charges made by Gov Hays against J. A. Bradsher and J. ". Ferguson, penitentiary commits sioners, was resumed last night at the state house. It is probable that it will be concluded today or tomor- row, and that the governor will im- mediately thereafter announce his de- cision. No doubt is expressed in any quarter what that will be, since he has already declared it to be his in tention. to remove the officials. The appointment of their successors will then be announced, whereupon it is predicted there will be repetition of the old Charity Board row, when two Boards attempted to hold the office, until the matter could be adjudicated by the courts.

FIFTEEN BANDS FOR
 VETERANS PARADE
Veteran Parade at Birmingham
 May Be Expected to Be Sev- eral Miles Long - Several Drum and Fife Corps to March

Birmingham, Ala, April 20.-(Spe- cial.)-No less than 15 bands will be feature of the giant parade which is being planned as one of the inter esting events of the Confederate Vet erans reunion to be held in Birming- ham May 16, IT and IS. The parade is expected to be several miles long and will require some time passing a given point. Inasmuch as nothing ex- cites enthusiasm so much as a band, it is planned to have as many organi- cations of that kind in the parade as possible. Information has already come to Birmingham that several bands will be brought here by dele gations from other states and divi- sions. However, the music commit tee of the Chamber of Commerce, of which Frederick Gunster, the widely known singer, is chairman, is working on plans which will, when completed, disclose easily the most interesting musical program that has ever been rendered at a Confederate reunion. Besides the band, which will fill the air necessarily with famous strains, there will be several fife and drum corps, while it is understood buglers from the ranks of the veterans will give the rousing charges from time to time. The musical portion of a re- union is one of the most important in the opinion of the members of the local committee, and every detail is being watched carefully to provide the rarest musical treat ever enjoyed by the veterans when they attend the reunion in this city next month.
 It is planned to keep the music go- ing at full tilt all during the parade and throughout the reunion days.

LABOR COMMISSIONER HOPES
 TO SETTLE CONTROVERSY

Little Rock, April 20.-Commis- sioner of Labor Clary announced last night that he hoped today to settle the controversy between the officials and the employees of the M. D. & G.. Ky. The officials were in conference with him yesterday, and he said a proposition was submitted which he believed would be satisfactory. A committee representing the men ar rived last night. The arrangements are being made to pay the back sal aries, and to have semi-monthly pay days hereafter. The Commissioner had given the railroad an ultimatum to the effect that if payment were not made without further delay he would institute suit for collection in every county through which the road oper- ateS.

PERSONAL
 PROPERTY S4,03S,305 LESS

The total assessment of all real and personal property in the state for 1915 was S4,03S,305 less than the total in 1914. This has caused much comment, but members of the Ar kansas Tax Commission declare that they are not surprised. "I really ex- pected that it would be much more, probably ten or fifteen millions" said Commissioner Brown, discussing the falling off in the assessments" It was due to the period of depression that prevailed for time last year, the influence of the European war, the low price of cotton, and the len ency of the Equalization Boards"
  secretary of the State Trust Com pany. while Mir. Duncan, vice presi- dent and cashier of the State National Bank, was president of the trust com pany.
 The two officers, it was charged by the government, used their inter locking positions to manipulate loans from the bank to the trust company that were in violation of the law. ! Much damaging testimony was given at the trial by the defendants, as we'll as witnesses produced by the govern ment.

Indicted October Last.

Mr. Garanflo and MT. Duncan were indicted October 20, 1915, on charges that originated when R. M. Huston, of the department of justice, acting un- der the comptroller of the currency, investigated conduct of the State Ma tonal Bank and the State Trust Com pny, a subsidiary concern. The State National Bank closed June 24, 1914.
 When the bank closed deposits on its books aggregated approximately ss00,0OO There were 1000 deposit Os. At first the bank was declared solvent and the comptroller of the currency turned 1t over to a board of the directors for liquidation. Later it was declared insolvent and Lloyd England was named receiver. Two 10 per cent dividends have been paid the depositors since Mir. England took charge
 Charges Against Men.
 The five charges on misapplication at the funds were based on five drafts issued by the officials, drawn on the State Trust Company's account, with the State National Bank. The trust company's account with the bank nabltually was overdrawn, the gov emment contended. Attorneys during the trial agreed to allow it to go into
The Prescott daily news., 1916-04-20

the records, without objection, that the account was continuously over drawn for several years. At one time the account was overdrawn S77,000. The legal limit to lend any one per son, firm or corporation, under the banks paid-up capital and surplus, was $54 ,000. While the overdraft was not loan, MT. Garanflo and MT. Dun can claimed that it was used instead of loan to prevent the trust con- pany from having to pay interest on money when it was not in use. No denial of the overdrafts was made, but the defendants urged that the course was one of good banking and that it was not taken in an effort to conceal or defraud.
 The fifth indictment charged that the two men conspired to cash the overdrafts and thus to violate the fed eral banking laws. Presence of a conspiracy was denied by the two officials.
 Testimony VOluminous. Much testimony was introduced during the trial, while not bearing directly on the specific transactions cited in the indictment, gave an ink ling of the methods pursued by the bank officers. Deals in Arkansas and Arizona copper stock and the pur- chase, by the State Trust Company, of $240,000 worth of the State Ma tional Bank stock by using only $20,- 900 cash, and that borrowed from the bank itself, were introduced by the government to show the character of some transactions.
 Mir. Garanflo, when arrested Octo- Der 20, made the following statement If there were any overdrafts in vio- lation of the statutes l knew nothing of them. l am sure none was made in any effort to defraud. MT. Duncan would have had jurisdiction over the overdrafts alleged to have been made"
 MT. Duncan would make no state ment either denying or affirming the charges that overdrafts had been made.

P0WNAL, VERMONT
RESIDENT HELPED
W. S. Proud Relieved OF Stomach
Trouble and Indigestion Since
Taking Tanlac
APPETITE ALSO RESTORED
He Says "And ! Cannot Recommend
TanIac Too Highly As 1t Has Done
Me a World Of Good"

Sound statements are based on ex-
act knowledge and exact knowledge can
only be gained from experience. The
great faith hundreds of people have in
Tanlac has been brought about by cir
cumstances.
Mr.. w. S. Proud, a popular farmer
living at Pownal, VI, made and signed
the following statement when talking
to the Tanlac man at Tasting s Pharma-
cy, North Adams. Mr.. Proud said:
~ have suffered from Indigestion and
weakness of the stomach, and was
always troubled with pains and gas in
my stomach. l had no energy, my food
did not digest and 1 had no appetite.
| seemed TO lack ambition.
q bought Tanlac after seeing it adj
vertised and since taking it, the pains
and gas in my stomach have disap-
peared. Ny appetite has been re-
stored and l feel like eating anything.
l also feel alive and energetic.
- cannot recommend Tanlac too
highly, as il has done me world of
good, in fact it has done me so much
good l think one more bottle will fix
me up in good shape"
1t is upon such signed testimonials
as these that the remarkable results
of Tanlac have been built.
The welfare of mankind demands that
they be supplied with nourishment and
this can only be done through perfect
digestion. 1t is not how much we eat,
but how much is digested that counts.
Tanlac is a stomach tonic supreme.
1t aids digestion, purities and enriches
the blood, tones up the nervous system
and builds up the health and strength
of thin, weak, nervous rundown men
and women.
Tanlac is now sold in Brattleboro at
the Brooks House Pharmacy and can
also be obtained in all neighboring
cities and towns at the Tanlac stores.
