Wildcat Company Finances Two More
 Wells in kibler Field.

Fort Smith. The Wildcat Oil and Gas Company of this city has decided to drill two additional wells in the Kibler field within the next 90 days. The company has authorized the 1s- suance of an additional 300 treas ury stock to be sold at par. This stock has already been subscribed and the funds will be used to drill four wells.
 The contract for two wells was let some time ago to J. s. Totley, who brought in the Wildcat No. in record time and who will spud in No. 2 soon. A derrick for No. in the same loca- tion, will be erected early this week.
 One of the two remaining wells will be located on the Bills farm, which consists of 600 acres This property is owned by an estate controlled at Bolivar, Tenn, and it's structure is regarded with the best in the field

 OIdfieId Leads.
 In the Second congressional district Congressman w. A. Oldfeld was still ahead of T. w. Campbell, his nearest opponent for renomination, and A. G. Gray was third. The vote stood: Old field, 11,142; Campbell, 10,464; Gray, 4,156. The returns on this race in cluded partial returns from all F counties in the district The results in other races, all of which are ap- parently decided, remained unchanged.
 Returns on delegates at large to the Democratic National Convention are very incomplete, but those at hand indicate the election of Hutton, Powell, Duty and South. Hutton has a good lead in this race. Attorney General Wallace Davis has been elected mem Der of the Democratic National Com mittee, defeating Vincent Miles, pres ent committeeman.
 Few Solons Will Return.
 While returns from many county races are still unavailable, those re- ceived indicate that only compara- lively few members of the last House of Representatives will be returned. Several members of the last house have been elected to the Senate. and one senator, B. H. Greenhouse of Fay etteyiIIe, representing the Fifth dis, trict, will be returned. In many of the districts senators are elected al tentatively from counties in the dis, trict, and for this reason only a few seek renomination. Senator T. c. White of Pine Bluff was defeated for

Despite driving rain Dr. c. H. Brough of Fayetteville, gubernatorial nominee, was given a rousing recep- tion on his homecoming from Little Rock, where he remained until nom1. nation was assured.
 --l Fully 1000 citizens met Dr. and Mrs. Brough at the Frisco station and formed a parade, which proceeded to the courthouse, where Dr. Brough delivered a speech. At least 800 more people joined the crowd at the court house, swelling the total number present at the speaking to 1,500, with all available space taken.
 Senator B. H. Greenhouse, who had just been nominated for a second term in the Senate and who put most of the little time he was on the stump in advocating Brough's candidacy, made short but eloquent address Of welcome. Senator Greenhouse was frequently applauded throughout his address.
 Among other things he pointed out that Dr. Brough is the first man from Washington county to be governor since the election of Archibald Yell in 1S40. He held up Gov. Yell as model for a man in that high office.
 John D. Arbuckle of Fort Smith made a large gain in his lead over Lewis Rhoton of Little Rock in the race for the Democratic nomination for attorney general. Incomplete re- turns received from "A of the E coun- ties gave Arbuckle 49, 162, and Rho- ton AT ,2S6 Among the counties which sent in complete or practically com plete returns were Lawrence, Grant Carroll and Drew. Additional returns were received from many other coun- ties. Both candidates claim the nomt- nation.
 Returns received made no apprecia- ble change in the race for governor. The vote stood; Brough, 55,459; Smith, 39,715; Hodges, 3S,064, out of the tota. vote of 133,238 accounted Tor.
 Incomplete returns from counties in the Northwest railroad commissioner district made gain for Walter G. Brasher. E. L. McHaney of Little Rock still was in second place. Oscar Vim is third candidate, has not con ceded defeat, and 1t is believed the official count will be necessary to de- eide the race.
 Official returns from Scott and Law renee counties were received, but most county central committees will not meet to canvass the vote until the Democratic county conventions will be held in all counties.

less of the bonus offered, but on Sat urday morning P. R. Thompson of this city returned from Bolivar with a lease to the land in his possession. It is said the bonus paid by the Wildcat company for this land established a new record in the history of the local field. MT. Thompson spent week at Bolivar to obtain the lease. Among its provisions is clause that forfeits the lease unless two wells are sunk started within 90 days.
 Half of the Bills farm lies virtually on top of the Kibler antecline. The Wildcat people have all land leased in section 36, adjoining the Arkansas river.

Grade Clean Town Papers.

DR.. Willis Valley, chief sanitary in.
spector for the Mississippi state board
OF health, has announced that the
grading of the report papers from
the cities, W and villages that en-
tered into the %cleanest town contest
for 1916, is progressing, but is not yet
completed. DR.. VALLEY reports that
there were forty-odd communities in
the contest this year. representing all
grades of municipality, from the five
figure to the three-igure class, and
the work done and the competition
carried on is keen and exciting.
Following the cleanup town contest
it is proposed to put in a system OK
inspection and grading of all restau-
rants and public eating places, wheth-
er regular bona fide cafes or lunch
counters, railroad eating houses, and
hope-skip-and-jump stands. The result
Of these inspections is to be placarded
and the placards will be posted con
spicuously at each establishment, Just
as soon as completed. The details for
this new departure are being worked
out, and as DOR as completed. the
plan will be put in operation. The
theory is that it is just as much {
duty to the public to require that the
resorts at which they take their meal,
are as much above reproaCh as the
ments maintained for public service
