Et'FORT To FORCE COUNTY
CLERK 10 PUT NAME ON
BALLOT.
SUIT FILED YESTERDAY
Candidate Did Not File With Count y
Clerk; Judge Rhea Appealed TO
For Hearing.

The last wall of the Democratic
managers who did not know that a
law enacted in 1892. and in continu-
Gus operation since. made it manda-
tory upon the part OF candidate to
file with the County Clerk his certi-
Gcate of nomination IN order to have
his name placed on the Official ballot,
is echoed in another suit filed yes
terday by attorneys Glenn and LII
kcns to compel the clerk to place up
on the ballot the name of ii. G. Dan
ieI. a Democratic candidate for con-
stable in the Sulphur Springs magis-
terial district. They had filed SIM
liar suit on behalf OF the county can
didates before Judge Slack, who had
promptly dismissed the action. TAX
ing advantage of the fact that Judge
Slack was temporarily out OF the dis
trict they filed this suit before Judge
John S. Rhea, of the Russellville dis
1rict. Rhea has been n very active
partisan in the Democratic ranks. At
best il is an amusing spectacle 10
watch the frantic antics OF these dis
appointed attorneys chasing around
from pillar to post in an effort TO
Hnd some friendly court that VIII
repair their unfortunate oversight
At the hour OF going to press the
case had NOT been called before Judge
Rhea, but what ever action he may
take the Court OF Appeals decisions
stand like stone wall against any
trigger work, and the election will
proceed on the same old day and in
the same old way, and there will not

Holland Grain Ships
Tied Up With Cargoes
in American Ports

New York, July 10.-Officials of the
Holland Steamship firms which have
sixteen vessels loaded with grain and
foodstuffs waiting in this port to sail
for Europe declared today that some Of
the consignees in Holland had been
forced into bankruptcy and many peo-
pie were starving. while waiting as
surances from the British government
that the ships would be given safe
conducts, 1t was estimated. that be-
tween thirty and forty Dutch ships
from 1000 do 1880 tons are tied up
in Atlantic ports.
An English diplomat said that ac-
cording to the most reliable informa-
tion the Dutch people are not in dan
ger Of starving. He also said the ques-
tion of permitting grain and foodstuffs
being sent to Holland was most
grave one considering that some mer-
chants were smuggling all supplies into
Germany.
The shippers were said to be particu-
larly anxious for their consignments to
leave American ports by July Is, when
Americas embargo on foodstuffs goes
into effect.

Even those comments which are
more restrained complain that Great
Britain Is falling behind In aircraft
construction and say 1t needs speeding
up. General Haig's reference to in
creased German air activity Is regard
ed as highly significant. In all the
comments there is the same note OF
outraged national pride and disgust at
the impunity with which the enemy
came, raided, and departed.
It Is remarked also that the aerial
attack raises to practical level the
question Of possible absolute dew
astation Of London by aircraft and the
infliotion of such losses as would
amount to a serious military defeat.
