NEW CANDIDATE
 FOR MAYOR OUT
". I. WILSON ANNOUNCES
J. HIEGEL BECOMES CANDI- DATE FOR TREASURER
 OF CONWAY.

From Fridays Dafrv- - The ice having been broken in the municipal political pond, candidates are beginning to jump in with less hesitation. Following the announce ment of J. C. Dawson yesterday as 8 candidate for mayor, W. T Wilson, former justice of the peace, today an- nounced his candidacy for the same position.
 J. l. Hiegel. of the Conway Lumber Company is also a new candidate to- day, having announced for the office of city treasurer He is the first to enter the race for this position.
 Mark Bolls stated today that the rep5r5 that he would be a candidate fof alderman of the Third ward was incorrect.
 dr. Wilson $ announcement for mayor follows:
 Fellow Citi2ens:
 'I am in the race for mayor, and in making this announcement 1 have no apology to make to anyone for so doing. l am a citizen of Conway of 35 years standing; 1 believe in Con- way, 1 believe in her institutions, l believe in her glorious future and l am glad that I have been so fortunate to have in my feeble way contributed to her greatness. I believe that Con- way is the best city of it's size in the state. I have always tried to make as good a citizen as any one; l have always stood for good morals and law enforcement; I have always tried to be honest and have tried to pay my debts. I have never tried to stand in with the machine politicians nor with any corrupt ring. 1 believe in the upbuilding of Conway and all her in- stitutions. I believe in all public i'm provements but not to the extent of killing the goose which lays the gol- den egg 1 believe our streets should receive the major part of the mayor time and attention and should 1 be so fortunate as to be your choice for mayor I would consider it my duty to counsel with all good citizens as to the best means of caring not only for the streets but for all the public busi ness, and should you honor me with this office I will do my best to merit your confidence

NORMAL STUDENTS GIVE
 DEPARTMENTAL RECITAL

From Fridays Daily
 That excellent work is being ac- complished by the department ot music and, reading in the State Nor maj School was evidenced last nlght when the students, under the dlrec tion of Mrs. Lila Wade Harrell, head of the department, gave rectal a the Grand theater before full house The audience declared it's apprecla tion by frequent and prolonged ap- plause.
 The program contained 13 num- bers, each of which was presented Tn an effectual manner, most of them be- ing encored. Perhaps the most en- thusiastically received numbers were the solos, Sunset" by Mrs. Harrell, and Dear Little Hut" and Gould l, by Cecil Wade Hyatt. A reading, "Whistling Ragtime" by Miss Zola Stanfeld, and the cotton field melo- dies by the male quartet, also are de- serving of special mention, Italia, Italia Beloved,' by a mixed chorus, brought forth much applause.
 To Mrs. Harrell, who has worked untiringly for several weeks in get ting the recital in readiness for pre- sentation, is due the credit for the success which the entertainment at tained.

CANFY.

Our farmers are improving this fine weather, sowing oats and plant ing potatoes, while the ladies are talking gardening and setting hens,
 Our school is progressing fine, un- der the management of Miss Arthur of Conway 1t will be continued one more month.
 Our Sunday school is being well attended since the weather has clear ed up.
 We hope some of our farmers will get a fruit evaporator this year, as there was fruit enough lost here last year to have paid for two or three evaporators. Twenty-Five dollars will get one that will dry five bushels of peaches or apples a day, and there is too much risk in depending on the sun, as several found out last year and evaporated fruit always sells for better price than sun-dried, and we could save a great deal of fruit that now goes to waste.
 We think our fair association should have a fve-acre contest and give prize for the most corn, cotton CT potatoes raised on this amount of land. It would encourage our farm CTS to set apart few acres and thor oughly cultivate it, to see what they could do, and also learn that compe- tition is the life of trade.

JUDGE LANKFORD
 OPPOSES MILITARISA
IN DECLINING TO RUN FOR CONGRESS, JURIST FIX
 PRESSES VIEWS.

While it has been understood fel some time that Judge Eugene Lank- ford, who formerly presided over the Faulkner circuit court, would hot be a candidate for congress, 1t is only recently that he definitely announced his declination to run. In letter to W. V. Goforth of the Quitman Times, Judge Lankford states that he Will net run and takes the opportunity to express his views of the question of military preparedness now agltatlng the nation. Judge Landlords letter, which is printed below, will be read with interest by his friends here.
 I have delayed answering your let ter of some time ago with many others, for the reason that 1 was un- decided as to my race for congress.
 I cannot run now.
 The main reasons are that my health and lack of money will not permit.
 I am sorry it is so, for I feel there is much that I could do and if there ever was time when the people of this nation should be on their guard and looking after their interests, 1t is now.
 The people are not getting square deal. If I were candidate anw say that, you might question my motives, but I am not candidate for anything, and yet l repeat the peo- pie are not getting a square deal
 Our laws are made, for the most part. to suit "big business and so administered that if a poor man ap- propriate a pig to feed his hungry children he is thrown into prison at once; while "financier' can do most anything and the technicalities of the law protects him.
 We have a great, rich nation, but the men who produce the wealth do not own and control it.
 Can we boast of industrial and so- cial efficiency when one man In the nation owns more money than five millions of other people? e?-when one third of the people are in abject pow ertv?-when one half of the laborers are living below the standard of de cent subsistence"?- "?-when we are fast becoming a nation of millionaires and paupers, landlords and tenants, pol iticians and grafters?-when the cor porations and trusts speculate in the bodies and souls of the laborers who make them rich, and profit in the vice and degradation of those who serve them?
 Do you doubt these assertions? If you have not seen it yourself, then read the report of the Commission on Industrial Relations" which is not socialist sheet, but an official
The log cabin Democrat., 1916-02-24
report of the United States.

The big daily papers are making a great hullabaloo about prepared ness" to meet some imaginary foe from without, and yet they are silent as to this monster of greed and graft that is now preying upon the vltals of our beloved country.
 All Americans believe in being pre- pared for any necessary defense, but these militarists and grafters are taking advantage of the situation, that's all; and are trying to put the yoke of militarism and taxation upon the people that they may rule and get rich.
 The best "preparedness' for our country. is a nation of educated and we'll treated citizens who will have an interest in, and an enthusiasm for our government.
 Some of our patriotic @ people actually ridicule Ford and others who are earnestly working for peace. If they go about it in the wrong way why not take hold and show them the right way.
 Eighteen months ago this nation, following the solemn proclamation O. our president. went down on its knees 10 Almighty God in prayer for peace. Why ridieule every effort of citizen now for peace? Have we lost oar faith. Or is it q question of pros pcrity?
 \ great. rich nation means noth- ing to the poor laborer who tolls for his master under the yoke of ignor- ance and taxes. and then dies in the trenches because of a row in which he had no voice.
 I may never run for any other of flee again, but the people of my dis trict have been exceedingly good to me. They have never turned me down when I called on them and l intend to stand by them in the future, and they may call upen me for ad- vice or service whenever l can give either. Your friend,
 Eugene Lankford.
