DEMOCRATIC STATE
CONVENTION MAY 81
Nothing Left For it to do, How
ever, but to Formulate the
Party Platform.

The Democratic state con-
vention will convene in Little
Rock Wednesday May 81. The
duties of the convention have
become largely perfunctory
since nominations and even ma
tional delegates and commit
teemen have been left to the
selection of the people.
The convention will declare
the nominations, will write a
platform, and will elect chair
man, secretary and members
of the State Central Committee.
1t is also planned that the con-
vention shall pass a strong
resolution endorsing Woodrow
Wilson for denomination. There
is a strong and growing senti-
ment in favor of the en-
dorsement of Gov. Elliot w.
Major of Missouri for the Vice
Presidency.
And this brings up another
interesting point. What power
has the convention to instruct
delegates elected by the peo-
pie, and in no wise answerable
to the convention? 1t it held in
some quarters that the dele
gates must go uninstructed land
that they cannot be required
even to vote as a unit, unless
they agree to do so.
The delegation that will re-
present Arkansas at the Nation
Convention in st. Louis, June
Ia, consists of the following:
AT large-W. V. Powell, w.
G. Hutton, w. H. Arnold, Jer-
ry c. South.
District delegates-J. NJ.
Jackson, Peter A. Diesch, M.
M. Stuckey ,Gustave Jones, Y.
c. Bratton, R. R. Thompson W.
B. Conway, Claude Thompson,
j. c. Ross, W. T. Woodbridge,
w. V. Tompkins, and Geo. P.
George.
Tom Poe, of Little Rock, del
egate from the Fifth District, is
said by those who have investi-
gated, to be the youngest del
egate ever elected to additional
convention. He is only % years
old.

CALOMEL SAL|VATES
AND MAKES YOU SICK
Acts like dynamite on a sluggish
liver and you lose a
days work.

There's no reason why person should
take sickening, salivating calomel when
so cents buys a large bottle of Dodson's
Liver Tone-a perfect substitute for cal
omel.
1t is a pleasant, vegetable liquid which
will start your liver just as surely as
calomel, but it doesn't make you sick and
can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodsons Liver Tone, because it is per
fectIy harmless.
CalomeI is dangerous drug It IS
mercury and attacks your bones. Take
a dose of nasty calomel today and you
viii feel weak, sick and nauseated To-
morrow. Don't lose a days work. Take
a spoonful Of Dodson's Liver Tone in
stead and YOU will wake up feeling great.
No more biliousness, constipation, slug
gishness, headache, coated tongue or sour
stomach Your druggist says if you
don't find Dodson's Liver Tone acts bet
ter than horrible calomel your money Is
waiting for you.

Practically nothing of the
1915 taxes have yet been paid
into the treasury. The payment
of this will soon begin, and be-
tween now and August IS, ov-
er a million dollars will be paid
in on that account. This will be
sufficient to wipe out the def
cit, pay the running expenses
in the meantime, which will be
approximately 100000, and
leave a balance in the treasury
of nearly 100000. Once again
the state will be on a cash basis
and with wise management it
is believed that it can be kept
there. There is one item of ex-
pense that will be almost Who'll
ly eliminated at the next ses-
sion of the Legislature. The
session of 1915 was called upon
to appropriate about 100000
for DEFICIENCIES and specialfees.
These amounts will this time
be practically negligible.
