". ". Campbell Gets
 Merited Promotion

Forrest City, Dec. 23.-On Janu- ary 1 J. T. Fondren, the veteran cashier, who has been with the Bank of Eastern Arkansas for the past B years, will leave that position.
 Into the shoes of MT. Fondren will step w. w. Campbell, who for 10 years has been under the tutelage and training, and who, in every sense of the word, is equipped to as sume the responsible duties of the cashiership.
 MT. Fondren will still retain his identity with the bank as vice pres. ident and member of the board of directors. At the meeting of the di. rectors a semi-annual dividend of per cent was declared, and, in ten. dering his resignation, MT. Fondrer said:
 My physical condition is such that it is utterly impossible for me to perform such duties as think 2 cashier should perform. l therefore tender my resignation, to take eff feet on January 1, 1920. l heartily recommend our assistant cashier, w w. Campbell, as being both active and efficient, and it is my desire that he be elected as my successor. thank the officers for their co-opera' tion during my term of office

Milton Jones, We'll
 KnOlUn Citizen, Dead

H. Milton Jones, aged 63 years, one of the best known citizens of Lee county, died at o'clock Wednesday morning at the family residence in this city. Funeral services were held at the home Wednesday afternoon at 8 o'clock, Rev. c. L. Hammock, pas tor of the Baptist church, conducting the services. MT. Jones is survived by his wife, two daughters-Mrs. James w. Harrington and Mrs. Dave Shea-and by two sons, Sam and Kimbrough.
 MT. Jones was born in Livingstone county, Ala, and came to Lee county in 1868. He first resided on a farm in Texas township, but later bought farm two and half miles south of Marianna on the Alabama road, where he resided for IS years. Several months ago he leased the farm to the Last Chance Supply Company and moved to his residence in Marianna. Ten years ago Mir. Jones was stricken with paralysis, but recovered sufficiently to handle his farming interests until about five years ago, when his physical condi- tion became such he could not act ively engage in farm work. Two weeks ago, due to his paralytic affiic- tion, his condition became worse, and during the past week members of his family and friends lost hope of his recovery from his more recent at tack. He was a member of the Baptist church of this city, and in all the essentials of good citizenship he measured up to high standard The pallbearers were J. w. Moore, U. P. Farrar, George Slaughter, M. H Ford, w. A. Wall, Hugh Nixon, B U. Mathews and H. B. Derrick.

Primary Date May
 Be Changed Again

Little Rock, Dec. 23.-The sugges- tion of Congressman T. H. Caraway for changing the date of the state and county primaries may be bought to the attention of the legislature when it convenes in special session. Governor Brough yesterday said that he will confer with members of the state democratic central committee, and if it is decided that this state will not be represented at the national convention unless the date for the primaries is moved up, he probably will issue a supplemental proclama- ton including the subject in the original call for the session.
 Congressman Caraway, in letter to the governor, said that unless the primaries are moved up to about the latter part of March, Arkansas would not be represented at the democratic national convention, which probably would be held in Washington, D. C., late in June. The governor has been informed that the democratic state central committee has the power to appoint delegates. Congressman Caraway said that the national com mittee had recommended that the delegates be elected, and that the people express at the polls their pref erence for the presidency candidate.

 take steps for the purchase of the property of the Arkansas Light and
 Power Company at the option price of $48,000 fixed by the engineers
 representing the city and company and the umpire, MT. Proutt of Mem phis. The meeting was called at the instance of Dr. O. L. Williamson, O.
 G. Norment and Hugh Nixon, com mittee, that represented the city in the negotiations with the light and power company. By the terms of the option an appraisal was to be made
 of the property and the company
 agreed to sell the plant and system to the city at the price fixed by the engineers, but it was expressly
 stated in the option agreement that the city was not obligated to buy the plant.
 The committee, through O. G. Nor lment, who acted as chairman of the mass meeting, made it's report show | ing the engineers had agreed that $48,00O would be a fair and reason
 able price for the system. This is
 what they decided was the actual physical valuation of the property as it now stands, and does not repre- sent any franchise or going value. It was understood in the beginning
 that no franchise or going value was to be considered. The advisability of
 recommending the purchase of the plant by the city was discussed at length. W. s. McClintock moved that the proposition to purchase be rejected. This opened the argument for and against the idea, and it soon
 became evident that while the citi- zens did not care to own the plant they were convinced it was necessary to get it out of the hands of the present company if the city ever ex- pected to have dependable service for any length of time. There was practically no disposition manifested
 to question the reasonableness of the
 valuation fixed, especially in view of the high cost of materials and la
 bor. Several suggested the city could purchase the plant and resell it to another company without loss
 to the city. This idea met with in
 stant approval. It is probable the
 deal will be consummated, and that
 as soon as the city acquires the title
 the plant will be turned over to an
 other company with the express un-
 derstanding extensive improvements
 are to be made and the service put
 on it's feet. When the discussion turned to the consideration of this phase of the matter opposition to
 temporary municipal ownership gave
 in and MT. McClintock withdrew his
 motion to reject and in lieu motion by J. B. Daggett recommending to the council the purchase of the plant
 was carried by a large majority.

 For Disabled Soldiers

Washington, Dec. 24.-Soldiers who are partially disabled from wounds received in the war are to be assisted in finding employment Tn civil positions under the war depart ment, according to information re- ceived from the U. s. civil service commission.
 It is stated that the war depart ment, the federal board for voca- tional education, and the civil serv- ice commission will within a few weeks have completed plan they have had under consideration for some time, one of cooperation whereby the employment under the war department of partially disabled soldiers, including those who ordinar- fly would be barred from civil posi- tions because of their physical condi- tion, will be facilitated in every way possible, and which will permit the employment of partially disabled men on the same basis as those who have not sustained physical injury.
 The war department has consider ably more than 100000 civilian em- ployes in it's various establishments, and it is believed by government of ficials that this large force can ab- sorb several thousand partially disa- bled men without serious detriment to the service.
