ALL WANT GOVERNOR BRouGH
NeighborhOods in Little Rock in an
 Amusing Contest.

Little Rock, Nov. i3-There is an amusing contest going on in Little Rock at present. It is between the nelghborhoods of the city to see which will be selected by Dr. C. H. Trough, when he moves to Little Rock. Almost all of the residence neighborhoods have a fine house which can be leased, and each neighborhood is championing it's particular house with the hope that 1t will be the one selected.
 Arkansas has no executive man. sion, so the governor must get out and find a home among the houses offered. Heretofore there has been little social life, OF entertaining, at the, gubernatorial mansion, but Dr. and Mrs. Brough are expected to en- Ter into this. and hence each neigh borhood desires to boast of having the governor as one of its residents.

Mrs. Josie Garden returned last Saturday from Poteau, where she had been to attend the session of the district court, being interested in a case which was pending against her son, Grady, on the charge of having been connected with the rob- bery of the First National Bank of Heavener last December. Grady had been held to the district court under bond, but at this term of court the case was dismissed, the state having concluded that there were no grounds on which to hold him. It will be remembered that when Grady was given prelimin- ary hearing before Justice of the Peace H. J. Radcliffe, soon after having been arrested last winter, he proved a strong alibi, but not withstanding that he was taken to Heayener under requisition paDers

TOWNSHIP OFFICERS.

Below is given the total vote cast for each candidate for Justice of the Peace, Constable and Road Overseer of the several townships in Polk county The votes are the result of the canvass made by the Election Commissioners, Minor Pipkin and NJ A. Stratton. and hence are official. in all of the townships except Gen. ter, where three are elected, there are two Justices of the Peace to be elected, so the two candidates re- ceiving the highest votes are the ones declared elected. There is one constable for each township. so the one receiving the highest vote has been given the certificate of election.
 The same condition is true in the matter of the candidates for Road ONerseer.

FINAL COUNT, WILSON 276, HUGHES 255
Polk County Vote is Canvassed and Official Re- turns Forwarded Early to Little Rock Vote on Justices, Constables and
 Road Overseers.

The news that came early last Friday from Washington and other points made it certain that Woodrow Wilson had achieved wonderful victory, and stopped the swinging pendulum that was started back ward and forward on the night of November 7.
 The word that did the work and ended the anxiety for more than one hundred millions of Americans was to the effect that the electoral votes were divided as follows:
 WILSON, 269.
 HUGHES, 235.
 DOUBTFUL, P.
 This gave Wilson 3 more than was needed to elect. and later he re- ceiyed 7 more, New Hampshire and New Mexico, giving Mir. Wilson PFC electoral votes, to Mir. Hughes, 255.
