COMPLETE SURVEY
 OF VILONIA ROAD

Engineer Mercer of the state high way commission yesterday afternoon completed the survey of the proposed turnpike from Conway to the east line of the county, by way of Beryl and Nilonia, and left this morning for Little Rock. He was assisted in the work by several citizens living along the road and the expenses were made up in Conway and at Vilonia.
 MT. Mercer stated that there was more travelling along this road while he was surveying it than any road he had ever surveyed in Arkansas. He said the route was fine one for a permanent road, as the expense of grading and preparing the roadbed would be small.
 From the engineers notes the high way commission will make up plans and estimates for the proposed road and as soon as completed these will be filed in county court. The next step in the organization of the dis trict will be the filing of the second petition, which must contain a major !ty, either in number of property owners, acreage or value of land in the district. Should this petition be liled the county judge will appoint commissioners who will be empower cd to issue bonds and contract for the construction of the road.

VOTERS NOT 'MISLtD
 BY BALLOT TITLE
OF AMENDMENT NO. I4
Deceptive Caption Framed by Attor- ney General Will be Resented
 A. W. Parke Declares.
By 4. ". Parke.

Little Rock, Nov. 3.-Likc Che pro verbal worm, the Arkansas voter is due for turn and when it comes the political trickster of Arkansas will have no place in their sun. The jock eying which was done with Amend ment No. Il, has opened their eyes, and caused the friends of the meas ure to rally to it's standards. 1t has proven a boomerang, and thousands who were not in favor of it will vote for it now, just because a bit of po- litical sharp practice has been used to prevent them expressing their wishes.
 Amendment No. If goes before the voters as measure to permit the in crease of the taxes levied for the building and maintaining roads and bridges. There is nothing in this amendment to permit such con struction, for it in no way permits an increase, and is specific against it.
 The initiative and referendum acts are, under the law, certified to the ' lording to the caption prepared by the attorney general. There is no end to the latitude extended to the attor- ney general under this act and in tho present case he has accepted it tc | the fullest.
 The attention of the attorney gen eral was called to the apparent error by Judge J. s. Abercrombie, president of the Arkansas Goad Roads Asso- citation, who sought to have it changed to resemble something like tru, statement of the purposes of tho amendment. He could get no satis faction out of the state official, anc although there was ample time for a change to be made, for none of tho counties had at that time printed their tickets, he permitted the tick ct to be printed in the garbled man

PREDICTS DEFEAT
 FOR LIQUOR BIL! THORNBURCH'S APPEAL
Anti-Saloon League Head Says Vigil ance of Prohibitionists will Bring
 Great Victory.

The defeat of Act No. ? hy a splcn= did majority is predicted in a state ment issued by State President George Thornburgh of the Arkansas Anti Saloon League, who, however. calls upon all good people not to slackca their efforts to bring about the defeat of this iniquitous measure. Mir. Thornburgh's final prediction ap- peal follows:
 Tn this, my last message, as the head of the Anti-Saloon League ta the people before the election, l am glad to congratulate the friends of prohibition throughout the state upon the hopeful conditions. We haze fought a good fight and the victory is sure if we but keep up our interest until the close of the election. A more outrageous proposition was never submitted to the people Of Ar kansas than Act No. 2. and they have never been more aroused or resent ful.
 "They will defeat the wicked offor, by a majority that will rejoice the hearts of all good people, but 'cter nal vigilance is the price of liberty and not one iota must we slacken our efforts until the sun goes down No vember :. Wherever the opportunity offers to speak in public or private, let it be done. Wherever the people gather let some one tell them the truth. On election day sacrifice every other duty to that of the election. and when the election is over see that the vote is correctly counted and returned.
 "A gentleman told me yesterday that he heard that twenty-seyen coun- ties would go in favor of Act No. ? because of the character of the clec- tion commissioners. This might have been the planf but l doubt if it can be carried out. In most Of these very counties the good people are organ ized and they will demand their rights. And as this will be a federal election, offenders may fall into the hands of the United States court, where they are not so influential as in other places.
 Let our people demand everywhere free ballot, a fair count and tHe return, and Arkansas will ring from one end of the state to the other with a shout of glorious and right eous victory"
