-Tanlac only thing that gave me relief"
 H. M. Telford, SIT Third avenue Birmingham, Ala, engineer Louis vile and Nashville says: "Wife had nervous indigestion-splitting head acfes-gave up all housework- Tanlac gave her new life and energy she gained pounds"
 Evidence from such sources as these Is unassiable. These men are exposed to all conditions of weather as no others are. Their runs take them from mountain to seashore, from storm, cold and sleet and they never falter in their duty. They must always guard against disease. These men speak from personal experience; no won der they pin their faith to Tan lac, for it has served them well.
 Tanlac is sold by leading drug glsts everywhere.

LITTLE ROCK LETTER


 Little Rock, Aug 25.-It is not generally known that Arkansas leads the states of this district, the others being Illinois and Missouri, in the number of farm loans and the to- tai amount loaned through the Fed eral Land Bank of St. Louis and the County Associations. The total amount now loaned in the district is about seven million dollars. It is also an interesting fact that not a single loss has been sustained in the state.
 This provision of a Democratic administration for meeting the needs of the people has proven a great boon to progressive farmers in need of funds for the improvement of their property. Any farmer in Ark ansas can secure a. loan from the bank at 1-2 per cent on 34 1-2 years time, by making application to the Secretary Treasurer of his National Farm Loan Association or by applying direct to- the bank for information.
 The amortization plan is used, which means that the loan is paid off at the end of the period, by keeping up with the annual inter- est payments. A certain part of the annual interest, which is lower than can be gotten elsewhere, is applied to the principal, which is gradually absorbed.
 However, any loan can be paid off in full at the end of five years, or any time thereafter. When cir cumstances and conditions warrant such action, the Bank may permit loan to be paid off at any time.
 L. L. Beavers, of Montgomery county, Arkansas, is the Treasurer of the Bank in St. Louis, and there are prosperous county associations throughout the state.

fifth term. w. A. Hodges of
 White county has also announced
 that he will make the race. ssssss When the Arkansas Legislature
 meets in September in second ex- traordinary session, which now seems
 probable, the state will not "pass
 the hat" to pay the expenses. That
 plan was really never seriously
 though of for it would have estab- lished most dangerous precedent
 to announce that those who might | be interested in the enactment of
 and particular class of legislation
 might get what they want by pay ing for it. The time might come
 when there would be flare-back on this proposition. It was merely
 suggested to see how strong the sentiment is in favor of an extra
 session to pass remedial road legis- lation. Several counties expressed
 their willingness to pay the expen-
 ses of the session, but they will
 not be called upon to do.
 The Governor is expected to issue
 his call about the middle of this
 week, and that it will last four or five days, in all probability and will cost about $10,000.
 It is expected that the session will be confined to road. levee and drainage legislation, unless the Gov ernor should decide to include in it proposed laws to reach the High Cost of Living which is now so pre- yalent.
 A number of the Prosecuting Attorneys of the state, met Satur- day in the office of the Governor, pursuant to his call to consider the question of H. c. L. and that of profiteering, which is so closely re- lated to it. The whole subject was very thoroughly discussed by them, The Governor and the Attorney General, and it was the consensus of opinion that something should be done to remedy existing evils.
 Committees were appointed to make investigations of bills pending in Congress and in other states that uniform legislation may be They also went on record as endorsing the proposition for an extra session of the legisla- ture, and to request the Governor to include that subject in his call if he should decide to call the ses- sion
 It is probable that some more will come from the conference of County Judges and Highway officials of the state who have been called to meet with members of the Arkansas Good Roads Association in the hall of he House of Representatives to problems that have arisen n connection with highway con- tructon in the state. The most erious feature confronting the tate is the threatened embargo on reight cars that have been used in Iauling road material, and the in reasing cost of material, due to dvancing freight rates and other ases.
 The Governor, the State Highway Department, and the far-seeing of icials are exerting their influence o modify conditions and orders hat threaten to tie up road con- truction at time. when it is nov ng with an impetus that has never efore been known in the state.
 An extra session of the Legisla- are might do something to help cry materially.

able for loans.
 The loans made in this district are as follows:
 ARKANSAS s6,799,s95
 Illinois, $6,O07,130
 Missouri, 6,479,50O.
 The loans that are being made in the state are enabling the farmers to secure modern machinery, better stock, and better buildings, and in other ways establishing themselves more firmly as business men. The so-called American party, started by ex-Governor Ferguson of Texas, is not likely to find much support in Arkansas. So far, no sentiment can be found in favor of it. There is no apparent excuse for it here, if anywhere. But it is certain that it will never get any further in Arkansas than have some of the other third party movements probably not so far as the Prog ressives, which really had some strength back of it, and some citi- zens. No malcontent has yet arisen in the state who is willing to stand sponsor for the new party, for all are claiming that they need not go out of the ranks of the Democratic of the Republician parties to be good americans. Third parties are. usually founded on personal griev- ances, and while it must be ad- mitted that is the actuating influ- ence of great many of the acts of the public or individuals, no crying demand for new party is appar-l ant in Arkansas.

 Prospective and receptive can make their appearance on the poli- tical horizon. At the present time, out of the two score that have been mentioned the only actual, avowed candidates are Tom J. Terral, Tom c. McRae, George R. Haynie, R. F. Milwee and Frank M. Wells. The week developed two more pros pectives-George A.
