PROH|bITI0NISTS
GATHERING FOR

Opponents of John Barley
corn Have Busy Week
Mapped Out.

st. Paul, Mimi, July 15.-Prohibi-
tionists are beginning to arrive for
the national convention to be held
Wednesday and Thursday of next
week and for series of important
preliminary conferences to be held
during the two days preceding. The
auditorium. where the general ses-
sions of the convention will be held,
is profusely decorated in red. white
and blue. Overflow meetings will
be held in the armory and the Ma
sonic temple.
The large number of early arrivals
is only one of the many outward and
visible indications of the prevailing
sentiment that the coming convention
is destined to be the most important
in the history of the Prohibition par
ty. Many of the party leaders even
venture to predict that the conyen-
ton will mark new epoch in nation
al politics. This year, for the first
time, the party means to lay serious
claims to the presidency.
Talks with the leaders already on
the field substantiate the early re-
ports to the effect that the Prohibi-

America at the time of his retire
ment from active work several years

ENDOWMENT FUND
100000 sought
FOR N. {. college
Campaign in Behalf of Hen
derSon- Brown Will Cover
Entire State.

Arkadelphia, July 15.-An endow-
ment fund Of 100000 is the objective
sought by Henderson-Brown college,
a campaign lasting from July 16 to
July 20, having been planned by the
management of the institution. More
than 100 ministers and laymen in the
Little Rock conference will cooperate
as leaders in the campaign. Rev. A.
O. Evans, pastor of the First Metho-
dist church in this city, is chairman of
the committee He has been given
several weeks leave of absence to de-
vote his time to the raising Of the
fund.
Assisting in the movement are
Bishop j. II. Mccoy of Birmingham,
and DR.. Stonewall Anderson, general
secretary for the NJ E. church of the
South. They will give their time to
the movement and will make num-
Der of addresses in the cities and
towns on the itinerary. President DR..
~ M. Workman of Henderson Brown
will also be active in the endowment
movement.
Rev. DIR. Evans has received letters
from more than 100 prominent min
listers and laymen throughout the con-
ference pledging their loyal support
i'll the matter, and many assurances
are being received which indicate that
the fund of 100000 will be raised
within the next two or three months.
An Indebtedness incurred by the re-
building of the institution following
the destructive fire of two years ago
will be cancelled, and the basis of a
large endowment will be on hand, it is
confidently believed.
Outlook is Bright.
Conditions about the college con-
evening attendance, the standard of
scholastic work in progress, and it's
general mission, were never better,
and prospects for the ensuing year
are exceedingly bright. More than
twice as many students are expected
to enroll during 1916-17 session than
We're here during the session just past.
The recent graduating class was the
largest in the history of the institu-
ton. The management of the college
truck farm, the products of which are
lege expenses. A 'cannery is operated,
preserving vegetables and fruit.
The following cities and towns are
on the itinerary of the six squadrons
who will cover the conference for the

Hermitage, Crossett, ElDorado,
Camden, Stamps, Magnolia, Hope,

RED LETTER DAY FOR CALUMET.

Calumet, Mich, July 15.-One hun
dred and sixty-three gold medals, with
an aggregate value of nearly $4,000,
were presented today to 1913 employees
of the Calumet and Hecla Mining COM
pany as tokens of the company's
esteem for their faithful service cover
ing a period of 40 years or more. More
than 1000 other employees of the COM
pany received silver medals. The
presentation of the medals was but
one of the many interesting features
in connection with the big family
gathering held in celebration of the
company's semi-centennial. Twenty
thousand person participated in the
celebration. From Boston, where the
headquarters of the company have al
ways been maintained, came a party
of several hundred that included
among it's members the general Of
ficers and veteran employees, together
with the descendants of Alexander
Agassiz and Quincy A. Shaw, the two
Bostonians who first began the de-
velopment of the Michigan copper
mines in 1866 and whose families are
still dominant in the control of the
great properties.

tionists hope to step into the shoes
OF the late Progressive party, to be-
come the foremost progressive party
in the country. The plans along this
line will come to head at a con-
ference to be held the day previous
to the meeting of the convention,
when movement will be launched to
obtain notable recruits from the
ranks of the other parties.
Prominent Converts.
Several men formerly prominent in
the Republican, Democratic or Pro-
sressive parties already have been
taken into the fold. Among them are
former Governor Sulzer of New York,
former Governor Foss of Massachu-
sets and former Governor Han1y of
Indiana. Each one of these, Incl
dentally, is mentioned for the Prohi-
bition presidential nomination. Mr..
Sulzer is said to have large fol-
lowing among Jews, railway train
men and laborers. Mr.. Foss is cred
tied by the Prohibition workers With
a considerable personal following and
Mr.. Hanly is believed to be influen-
tial with the Methodists and attend
ants at Chautauquas. Daniel Polling
q leader of the Christian Endeavor
movement, and Dr. Ira Landrith. a
well known Y. M. G. A. worker, are
others whose names are mentioned
in connection with the head Of the
Prohibition national ticket The Sc
lection of a vice presidential nominee
will depend largely upon what section
CT the country the presidential choice
comes from.
In it's general aspect the platform
will be similar to those of other
years, but if the wishes of the pro-
gressive element of the party are ca +
ried out the declarations will be
much broader in scope than ever be-
fore. The main plank, Of course, will

Circuit Judge Sorrells to
Preside at Meeting at
First Baptist Church.

Union services will be held at the
First Baptist church this evening, be-
ginning at o'clock at which will
be formally opened the campaign to
be conducted for the establishment
of a memorial to the late State Sena-
tor r. c. White. y
Circuit Judge w. B. Sorrells will
be the presiding officer at the meet
ing, and among the speakers will be
Rev. w. J. T.. Cox, Rev. c. c. Cline
and Rev. Marion Nelson Waldrip. The
congregations of the First Methodist
church, the First Presbyterian church
and the Lakeside Methodist church
are among those who will participate
in the union service, the evening ser
vices today being suspended at those
churches for this purpose.
Senator White was an official men,
her of the First Baptist church, and
it was because. of this that the union
Aervice is being held at that church
this evening. Because Of his long
continued, active and self-sacrificing
service in behalf of prohibition, Sena-
tor White is felt to have earned the
memorial which his friends and fell
workers in the prohibition cause
propose to establish, and which will
take the form of home for his fam
lily, and the settlement of the indebt-
edness OF his estate.
