Dr. C. il. Brough Speaks Here.

pr. c. H. Brough of Fayetteville. candidate for governor, spoke to a good sized audience at the Prln- cess theatre on last Friday night at $50 o'clock. He was billed to speak at 8 o'clock but his train was late and he had to drive from Eel senthal here. He was introduced by E. A. Woolley, one of his former students at the State University and spoke for an hour and half.
 He criticized the action of Sec retary of State Earle w. Hodges for not letting the Investigating committee examine his books and said he was an accomplish in the matter of the missing books fro n the supreme court library
 He never denied that he deposit ed his money in Utah bank and never said he paid poll tax the first six years he was resident of this state. He failed to show how he could reduce taxes and advo- cated bond issue to be paid with in six years to put the state on a cash basis. He also advocated a law creating the office of deputy tax assessor for each township in the state, the citizens to go to the deputy to assess their taxes in stead of the assessor as it is now, which would create 1000 new of fees and benefit no one. If each township had an assessor who would go into every home in his township and list what he could find in the house such law would be good, but what pr. Brough ad- vocated is no better than the pres ent system and would be an addi- tional expense.
 He was given close attention and his speech was well received He left Saturday morning for Fl Dorado where he spoke at 10 o'clock that morning, at Junction City that afternoon and closed his Union county campaign at Wesson that night.
 pr. Brough has been campaign ing since last March and before the primary will nave made over 1000 speeches in his race for gov ernor.

 The Little Rock convention will be held at the First M. E. Church. South, March l. 2, s and 5, omit ting Saturday. The churches ac- lively cooperating are the Metho- dist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Christian, Episcopalian and Luth- eran. The program includes the strongest men from all the various denominations, questions of sect being wholly eliminated. The movement is essentially edu cational.
 A large portion of the time of the convention will be given to con- sideration of practical missionary work being done in the United States, and especially in Arkansas, and the falloW fields for missinary effort will be thoroughly reviewed. This form of missionary enterprise, Home Mission, is carefully distin- guished from Foreign Missions, or work in foreign lands.

AGAINST RIVER IMPROVEMENT.
Work on the 0uachita River Above Monroe
 May be Abandoned.

Col. Townsend of St. Louie, the engineer in charge of this division of river work, has recommended to congress that work on the Ouachi- ta river above Monroe be aban- doned despite the fact that Major Slattery and Capt. F'iske, the en- gineers appointed to investigate the matter, reported favorable on the completion of the nine locks and dams as originally planned.
 A letter from Congressman w. s. Goodwin, of this district, to Ike Felsenthal of Fl Dorado states that everything in his and Judge Wilson's power is being done before the committee on rivers and har- bors, to have the recommendation of Col. Townsend reversed. Judge Wilson is the congressman from the Louisiana district in which Monroe is located, and he says the people of Monroe are vitally inter ested in the improvement of the upper Ouachita and will do all in thelr power to help him see that the work is continued.
 A hearing before the rivers and harbors committee is being ar ranged for and move is on foot to have a committee composed of one representative each from Monroe. Huttig, El Dorado and Philadelphia to appear before the committee should it be deemed necessary by our representatives in Washington.
 We supposed the matter was favorably settled when the report of the officers who investigated the matter recommended the comple- tion of the work, but it seems that Col. Townsend does not see 1t that way, but we trust that through the influence of Senators Clarke and Robinson and Congressman Good win and Wilson we will yet be able to report the appropriation of funds to continue this needed work.
 Messages from Senator James P. Clarke, Congressman w. s. Goodwin and Congressman Sam Taylor received since the above was written, say that there is nc necessity for delegation from cities along the Ouachita going tc Washington to urge the improve ment of the Ouaohita above Mon roe. It is said the Arkansas ano Louisiana delegations in Congress are doing their utmost to secure the appropriation, despite an un- favorable report from the board o1 government engineers.

mANsFIELD's SPIRIT PROMPTS
Such is Opinion Of Il. Cooper
Cliffe, Famous Actor.

II. Cooper Cliffe, who is cast
as Baron Chevrial in the William
Fox photoplay revival of Rich
ard Mansfield's famous success,
"A Partisan Romance" believes
that the spirit of the departed
tragedian aided him in his in
depreciation of the role. Mr..
Cliffe is admittedly spiritualist
and it is known that Mansfield
had leanings toward that cult.
Come occult power guided me
in the enactment of the part, .
says Mr.. Cliffe. II believe that
it was the spirit of Mr.. Mans
field, who was a good friend of
mine and who has played the part
so many times. Frankly, l am a
spiritualist, and from casual re-
marks by Mr.. Mansfield long be-
fore his death I have come To
believe that he, too, believed in
spiritualism.'

CITY FATHERS MEET
TUESDAY NIGHT LAST TAKEN UP
WITH MATTERS OF IMPORT TO
CITIZENS OF LANCASTER.

The city council has not as yet TAX
en- any action on the lighting contract,
although Alderman Calvert gave re-
view of the negotiations to date at the
meeting last Tuesday evening. A ten
year contract has been under cOnsid-
Grafton, but the city objects to enter
ing for so long a period. The mat
ter will have further consideration.
The council agreed to allow the high
school boys the use of the old gym for
basket ball practice, but thought an
examination should be made as to the
strength of the floor before any wider
use of the room was granted.
A petition bearing eighty-siX
names was presented from the first
ward asking that Oscar Wright be APP
pointed as alderman to fill the vacan-
cy created by Clarence Croft's remov-
al to the third ward.
The council voted to appoint Mr.
Wright in Mr. Croft's place and the
mayor made the appointment subject
to the question as to whether or not
Mr.. Croft has left the ward. 1t seems
that he still occupies the house with
his goods and sleeps there.
This evidently leaves the question
open for time at least.
