FIGHT REPEAL OF
PROHIBITION LAW
Promise of Spirited Contest on
the Bill Before General Elec-
ton in November.

Little Rock, July LIT is
practically assured that the
Prohibitionists of the state will
be unable to successfully at
tack the validity of the Initia-
tive petition that has been filed
with the Secretary of State for
the repeal Of the statewide
prohibition law.
In order to make a showing
against the petition, it would
be necessary to purge it of T.
295 signatures, or almost one
third of the 49, 36 names sign
ed to the petition. 1t is mani
fest that this will be impossible
unless some wholesale falsifi-
cation of signatures can be dis
covered, which is improbable.
Those who circulated the peti-
ton knew that it is felony to
forge signatures to the petition,
and they Say they were very
careful to secure the signatures
of only qualified electors.
Leaders of the Anti-Saloon
League are planning cam
paign Of education and enlight-
ment upon the subject of prac-
teal and applied prohibition
which they believe will over
come the work of those who
are making their fight upon
the local option platform. These
leaders are not in favor of at
tempting to purge the petition
which was circulated and sign
ed in less than three weeks.
but to devote all their time
and energies to an open fight
against the endorsement of the
proposed law by the people
in November.
1t will De shown that bust
ness of all kinds has been bet
ter than it was under the old
saloon system, and that bust
ness interests in general are
opposed to the repeal of the
law. 1t will be shown that
crime has been lessened and
savings accounts have increas-
ed, that collections have been
better and the volume of mer-
camille business greatly in
creased.
Already there is promise of
a spirited contest before the
general election in November.

RURAL CREDITS BILL
SIGNED BY WILSON
President Points Out Benefits
to be Realized From Meas
ure for Land Loan Banks

Washington, July 17.-Pres-
ident Wilson today signed the
rural credits bill, passed re-
Gently by Congress. A group of
senators, representatives and
officers of farmers organiza-
lions applauded warmly as Mr..
Wilson affixed his signature.
Just before signing the meas
ure, which creates a system of
twelve land loan banks under
direction of a Federal board,
the president made a short adj
dress, pointing out the benefits
he believed both farmers and
the investing community would
enjoy under its operation.
I'm signing this BILL" said
the president, 81 have not on
ly a feeling of profound salts
faction but of real gratitude
that we have completed this
piece of legislation, which
hope will be immensely benefi-
cial to the farmers of the coun-
try.
''The farmers, it seems to
me, have occupied hitherto a
singular position of disadvan-
tage. They have not had the
same freedom to get credit on
their real estate that others
have had who were in manu-
featuring and commercial en-
terprises, and while they have
sustained our life they did not
in the same degree with others
share in the benefits of that
life.
Therefore, this bill alons
with the very liberal provisions
of the Federal reserve act put!
them ON an equality with al
others who have genuine as
sets and makes the great cred.
1t of the country available to
them. | look forward to the
benefits of this bill, not with
eXtravaganr expectations, but
with confident expectations
that it will be of very wide
reaching benefits, and, incid-
entally, it will be of advantage
to the investing community. for
| can imagine no more salts
factory and solid investments
than this system will afford
those who have money to USE"

SKIPS AFTER GIVING
WORTHLESS CHECKS
w. Nj. Mckenzie Who Came
Here Recently Passes Num-
Der of Worthless Checks

w. M. Mckenzie, an auto
repairer who came to Newark
a short time ago and has been
in the employ of Porter & Sisk
at their blacksmith shop here,
has disappeared after having
issued a number of worthless
checks.
He is said to have issued
check to Edwards & Son at
Batesville for $65, and another
one to j E. Trevathan of Bates
vile for $32. He gave Moore
Bros, of this place a check for
$40 and left owing Dan Moore
Jr., an auto bill of $4. A num-
Der of other small checks are
said to have been given by Nc
Kenzie to different parties.
The checks were given on
the First National Bank of
this place and in each instance
were refused by the bank, Nc
Kenzie having no funds on de-
post in that bank.
Mckenzie left here's aturday
and went to Batesville where
most of the worthless checks
were given. He went from
there to Newport and was last
heard of at Swifton.
Mckenzie is young man
not more than % or % years
old and of slender boyish ap-
pearance.

MAY BUY ANOTHER
TRACTOR AND GRADER
Interest in Good Roads so great
as to Necessitate Purchase
of More Machinery

The demand for better roads
has become so great since the
recent purchase Of the tractor
and grader that Judge Valid
rip is considering the purchase
of another outfit similar to the
one recently purchased.
The people Of all parts of
the county are clamoring for
the tractor and grader to be
sent into their community.
Parties around Batesville have
succeeded in keeping the ma
chimes in use on the roads in
that community, however, ana
IN order to meet the growing
demand for the machines in
other sections, it is said that
Judge Waldrip will buy anoth-
er tractor and grader.
The outfit recently purchas-
ed is doing splendid work on
the roads and is said to be Civ
ing perfect satisfaction.
Improved road building ma
chinery is a good investment
for the county and there will
probably be no objection from
the people Of any part of the
county to the purchase of an
other tractor and grader.

INTEREST INCREASES
PROPOSED new ROAD
Ferry at Paroquet Assured if
jackson County End of New
Road Can be Built

A great many people are
manifesting an interest in the
proposed new road east of
ParOquet to connect with the
road into Newport, a short dis
lance east Ct Black River. Par
ties interested in the move
ment propose to put in a first
class ferry at Paroquet and
help construct the road from
Paroquet to the river, if the
new road can be secured from
Black river eastward in Jack
son county to connect with the
road into Newport.
There is less than a mile of
road to build in this county and
not more than 212 miles to
build in Jackson county. The
ferry is assured and the road
on this side of the river can
easily be secured. 1t seems that
the only thing necessary now
to secure this road, which
which would be great con-
venience to the travelling pub
lie, is the short connecting link
of road that will have to be
built in Jackson county. This
can be built parallel with the
railroad at very small cost, as
the entire distance is on high
land that will require very lit
tie work to make a good road.
The distance from Black river
to the old Record crossing,
where connection is made with
direct road into Newport, is
only about 212 miles.
With the opening of this new
road, a splendid year-round
driveway can be maintained
between Batesville, Newark
and Newport, as practically the
entire route is above overflow
except during unusually high
stages of the river.
This road would be worth a
great deal to the land owners
and farmers of the Black river
section, both in this county and
in Jackson county, as it would
give access to market at both
Newark and Newport. The
building of this road will help
to develop this rich section of
country as nothing else will,
and the matter is worthy of
the serious consideration of
the people, not only of that sec
ton alone, but of the business
interests of both Newark and
Newport.

ALLEGED OPINION
BY DAVIS DENIED
Attorney General Says Officers
Elect Will Assume Duties
When Commissions Issued

Little Rock, July 19.-Some-
what Of a stir has been created
over the state by a recent pub
LEGATION in a Little Rock news
paper that Attorney-General
Wallace Davis had given out
an opinion to the effect that all
state, county, district and
township officers who will be
elected at the general election
to be held in November will
not take office until January,
1917; or, in other words, that
the present incumbents will
not retire until the beginning
Of the new year.
When questioned today rel
atiVe to the matter, Attorney
General Davis stated that he
had given out no opinion of
the kind, nor had he ever CIV
Ell expression to such ideas,
and he was at a loss to know
how his name was connected
with the alleged opinion. Mr..
Davis expressed the opinion
that county officers elected in
the coming November election
will take office as soon as they
qualify.
The law provides that all
county officers shall assume
the duties Of their positions as
soon as they receive their COM
missions after the vote is can
vassed and the result announ-
ced. This law also applies to
all state offices created by the
Legislature. The constitutional
offices, such as governor, at.
torney-general, secretary Of
state, treasurer and Justice OF
the supreme court, are sworr
IN the day after the Legisla.
ture canvasses the vote, early
in January.
The act passed by the last
Legislature consolidating state
with national elections has
nothing whatever to do with
the time of newly elected Off
GERS qualifying, except that it
postpones the retirement of in
cumbents until after the vote
cast in the November election
is canvIssed by the various
county election boards.
