JACKSON COUNTY FAIR
 TO OPEN NOVEMBER g

Newport, Sept. 6.-The an nual fair held each fall by the Jackson County Fair Associa- ton will this year be thrown open to the people of border counties who do not have a fair of their own. The meet, which begins Nov. 9, promises to be the best of any previous sea- son. Last year the low price of cotton and ruined crops in the overflowed districts cut the at tendance short, but with a good crop of cotton and corn and high prices the board of mana gers is arranging the most elaborate programme ever att tempted at the fall meet.

JUDGE HOYT BUYS
 TRACTOR AND GRADER
New Machines Expected to Ar rive Soon and Will be Put to Work in This Section.

Judge F. c. Hoyt has closed a deal for the purchase of an- other tractor and grader for use on the roads of the county.
 The deal was closed We'd nesday in Little Rock and the two machines will be shipped today or tomorrow and are eX- peeted to arrive in about a week or ten days.
 The tractor is a Rumley 30- 50 horse power, which is twice the horse power of the tract0l now in use on the roads. The grader is some larger than the one now in use.
 The tractor and grader re- gently purchased are consider ed a little too lighA to do eff fective work at ma4 points in the county, and Judge Hoyt de- cided to buy an outfit that can be depended upon to do the heavy work that is required of these machines if the best re- suits are to be secured.
 Judge Hoyt is deeply inter- ested in the work of improving the roads of the county and states that 1t will be his policy to push the work as rapidly as possible.
 It is probable that when the new road machinery arrives it will be unloadeo at Newark and put to work on the New ark and Cord road, as more in- terest is being manifested in this particular road now than Iany other road in this section. l There will be no lack of roads to work on, however, as the people of every community in this section are clamoring for the machines to be brough into their neighborhood.
 A considerable sum of mon- ey has been raised by w. C.. Sanders and others of Wycough and White River townships who want a road built from Newark through w ycough township and into Sulphur Rock.

cuMMlNs CAMPAIGN EXPANDS.
To open Washington Headquarters
and Invade South.

To open Washington Headquarters
and Invade South.
Washin gton, Feb 23.-Republican
State Chairman Rawson of Iowa is ex-
pected in washington soon to organize
! headquarters here to forward the
movement in favor of the nomination
of Senator Cummins for president.
The Washington work in the inter-
est Of Senator Cummins has been di-
rected for some time by the Iowa dele
cation, headed by Representative Good
and by Senator Kenyon. It has been
confined mainly to the south and has
been desultory and unorganized. Mr..
Rawson has been directing the middle
west work from Des M>,nes where he
has perfected smoothly working or
ganization and is getting results
The Cummins leaders have decided
to become more active in the fight be-
cause Of assurances Of sympathetic
interest in the Cummins campaign
which have come from a number Of
influential southern leaders, especially
those from Louisiana. 1t is said
Louisiana Is expected to go republican
or progressive this fall. will elect a
republican governor and may send re-
publican electors for the national
ticket
Members Of the Iowa delegation are
to leave Washington soon to visit
nearby southern states to test out the
Cunmins strength. One Of the first
to be visited will be West Virginia,
where there is a strong independent
republican faction. Cummins is said
to have an influential following in the
states. Particular attention will be
given to the state primary law there
for the selection Of delegates to the
nominating convention.
The republican national committee
decided at it's meeting here when June
was fixed as the date for the con-
vention, to permit the secretary Of
state of West Virginia to certify by
telegraph the delegates elected at the
West Virginia primaries on June 6.
The law provides for a recount of
ballots by return board. Should this
recount show the election of set Of
delegates different from those seated
in the convention and the West Vir-
ginia vote should decide the presiden-
tial nomination. the work Of the con-
vention might be invalidated
