SOME 0F THE GANG WILL BE MISSING
 AFTER JULY 0Nf
They're Going to Exchange a Cue for a Gun to Do
 Their Shooting.

After July 1 some of "the gang will be missing. Take it from officials of the two Jefferson county draft boards. "Jimmy,'> or "Jofnny" or "Willieo Or Tommy" or any others who are famous in local poolrooms as some poolshooters" but whose bat ting average is extremely low when it comes tc doing a days work or earn. ing an honest dollar, will be missing when the gang gathers in the evening 1,or fer the nocturnal game of scraps" or
 And the local draft boards aren't going to find jobs for those birds, either. They've got to find them for themselves, good useful situations, something that will help Uncle Sam somehow to win the war, or bang! 1 they'll@be certified and in several weeks you may see them clad in khaki coming home for their first furlough.
 Why aren't they already in the ar my? We'll, members of the board say that class of fellows who are lucky at pool, with the pasteboards and the dotted cubes also were lucky when Secretary Baker began drawing for drafted men in the big bowl at Wash ing. Their numbers came out last.
 Howsumever, there is little pas sage in the scriptures about "the last shall be first and first shall be last" or words to that effect. And it is going tc prove out when the flight or fiddle" order of Provost Marshal General Crowder becomes effective July 1.
 i Anywhere from 50 to 200 is the es- innate placed on the number of faces that will be either missing or bathed in precipitation from an honest days labor after that dread date-dreaded by the fellows who think that carry ing a gun is tco rough to permit a man tc keep condition to man a que.
 And wbat's more, it doesn't matter whether a man is directly under the jurisdiction of the local board. In oth- CT words if he is registered in Chicago and is loafing or engaged in some ncn-essential work in Pine Bluff, the Pine Bluff board can measure him for a suit of khaki before he could read only the runs, hits an errors of a baseball score.
 It's work or fight and the gang that's just been fooling may still con- tinue to sing in the evening "Hail, Hail, the Gangs All Here," but their environments went be the green baize covered tables but company street in one of the big army cities that have sprung up in cur midst since we told the Kaiser to "go to h." and started out to make him go.

C.C. CALVERT GIVES HIS OPINION ON
 ABSENTEE VOTING
Ballots Must Not be Sent Out of County Says
 Democratic Secretary.

Little Rock, May 25.-C. C. Calvert secretary of the Democratic State Central Committee, gives the follow ing as his official opinion in regard to absentee voting:
 As secretary of the Democratic State Central Committee it is my opinion that ballots should be counted for any candidate whose name is printed on the ticket in the county in which he is candidate.
 'I mean by this, that voter might use ballot in one county and vote for candidate in another county providing he voted for the candidates whose names were printed on the bal lot in the county in which he was d candidate.
 For instance, a man desiring to vote in Pulaski county for a canG- date in any county, would take the Pulaski county ballot, and erase the names of all county candidates and write thereon the names of the c:ndi- date he desires tc vote for in his home county.
 "This, believe, to be the intention of the rules of the Dcmocrati, party and such ballots should he counted"

Ohio Man Is
 Modern Wizard Discovers magic ether com pound which loosens a
 corn so it lifts right out


 Good news spreads rapidly anc druggists here are kept busy dispens' ing freezone, the ether discovery o1 a Cincinnati genius, which is said te loosen any corn so it lifts out with the fingers.
 Ask at any pharmacy for quar- ter ounce of freezone, which will cost very little, but is said to be sufficient to rid ones feet of every hard ol soft corn or callus.
 You apply just few drops on the tender, aching corn and instantly the soreness is relieved and scon the corn is so shriveled that it lifts out with out a particle of pain. It is sticky substance which dries when applied and never inflames or even irritates the adjoining tissue.
 This discovery will prevent thou sands of deaths annually from lock- jaw and infection heretofore result ing from the suicidal habit of cutting corns.-(Adv.)

HUNS PLAN CAMPAIGN
 AGAINST THE JEWS
Indications Are That Anti-Semitic Movement Will Be Carried on
 More Imtensively After War

Stockholm, May 25.-(Correspond- ence of The Associated Press. )-A new anti-Semitic campaign has begun in Germany, announces the German Association for Combating of Anti Semitic, which has issued appeal fer support in opposing this new propaganda against Jews.
 "All indications point to the fact that this anti-Semitic movement will be carried on in more intensive form after the end of the war;" asserted the German association. "Extensive preparations have been made there fore and pecuniary resources have been assembled"
 The appeal defends the Jews against charges of usury and profit eering during the war, and declares that the anti-Semites "desire to use hatred for Jews as a means of up- holding the strongly threatened and unjustified privileges of a small caste against the inevitable new orientation of Germany's internal conditions"
 The April number of the German Deutschlands Erneuerung contains an article by Dr. Erich Kuhn in which, after discussing the campaign to ob- tain modern electoral franchise in Prussia, he declares that if the elect cral reform be forced upon the state, "it should be provided that only Ger mans by blood-not merely by citi- zenship-shall be eligible for election. It must also be so ordered that only pure -blooded Germans of certain standard CT education shall be per mitted to occupy responsible posts in the press. Finally it must be so arranged that in all our schools and universities the spirit of German nationalism shall be taught only by persons of national dependableness." "
 The publishers of Deutschlands Erneuerung include the conservative university professor von Buelow, President Class of the Pan-German Alliance and Professor Dietrich Schafer.
 There is doubt here that the Asso- citation for the Combating of Anti Semitism correctly apprases the sit uation when it declares that a strong anti-Semitic campaign can be expect ed in Germany after the war. The indications are regarded as unmistak- able.

 MT. Pages Answer. We'll, perhaps not didn't regard it violation of the law no law says it should not be paid to me.

Why MT. Page Attacks Hon. Tom J.
 Terral, Secretary of State.

When this camapign opened Mir. Page sent Mr. A. H. Proctor his Deputy Warehouse Commissioner to see MT. Tom J. Terral, and ask him to support him: that could be friends, but when his employee returned with the message that Mir. Terral would not support him, then he again sent Mr. Proctor to Mr. Terral, and ask if he (Tom J. Terral) would not take Jim Ferguson out of the race. Mr. Terral he did not put Jim Ferguson in the race and would not try to take him out. Then Mr. Page sent word to MT. Tom J. Terra if he would get Jim Ferguson out his office. That MT. Terral promptly refused to do Is Jchn H. Page justified in making an attack on Hon. Tom J. Terra, Secretary of State? When do you think of Mr. Pages tactics?
