VICTORY LOAN IS
GOING OVER STRONG
Villas County Asked to Raise
Additional $4,000 on
Fifth Loan Quota.
viii Make Il.

Villas county has been aSkedt to raise
an additional $4,000 over its previous
Victory Liberty Loan quota OF
$4,000. Campaign Chairman Finn
Lawler received word to that effect
from headquarters yesterday and this
morning states that the county will
have no trouble in raising the extra
amount.
Incomplete reports from the vari-
Gus towns are very encouraging. Fig
ures from Eagle River show a whole
hearted response to the Fifth loan.
Fifty-three persons subscribed q total
of $3.50 and over $4,000 of that amount
was pledged without any solicitation
whatever. The Woman's Club were
detailed TO make the local canvas
but after soliciting $1,000 decided fur
ther canvass was unnecessary. Sub
scriptions began coming In without
any urging. The same conditions pre-
vailed in other parts Of the county,
Flambeau OverSubscr ibed its quota
the first day of the campaign. A full
report of all towns will be published
as soon as the final returns are in.
A few towns in the county have not
yet reached their quota. The time is
short now. They are urged to make
a big effort to complete their allot-
ment so that the county Gan report
every town doing its full share.
The Victory Loan drive ends to-
morrow Saturday. There is still
time to raise the extra $4,000 and put
Villas county away over on this Fifth
and last loan. The county has done
s~plendidly in all previous campaigns.
Let it finish the job with a flourish.

GIamor of the Past.

Egypt is the most popular field for
the explorations of the psychologists,
but Guatemala and Mexico, on u
own hemisphere, offer fields glamorous
with the same mysteries. Even IN
southwestern America the ruins of cliff
dwellings and other monuments OF
dead-and-gone peoples furnish intense
ly interesting and fascinating fields for
investigation and theory. No man can
stand in the presence of these things
and fail to be thrown into strange
thoughts. Indeed, for that matter, one
looks with strange feelings, upon even
a deserted house in which the tenants
were only of a generation past. But
1t is when no one remains alive who
was part of a past that 1t becomes
of first-order interest. This is why the
old Franciscan missions of California
now possess so great a fascination for
the world.

yet in the first three weeks there were twenty-five acts approved by the governor, and there are twice as many more awaiting executive approval.
 The 1919 geneal assembly is in every way capable body, and this, with determination to accomplish something, must bring results that are beneficial to the people.
 The senate, less incumbered with a lengthy roll call, is able to attend to business with twice the rapidity of the house. The members are less inclined to making speeches. Some of the most important measures go- ing to a vote without an explanation even The members know that the others have advised themselves of the provisions of all pending mat ters, and that long winded speeches will not change one vote, consequent ly they save the oratory for closing

 The house has gone on record very forcibly with the declaration that salaries of state employees shall not be raised. Several such bills have been passed by the senate, but in the house they hang up or are de feated by good majority. This condition has led a state house wag to rid himself of Gen.

Now MT Newton is working for a state pension department, having hi- troduced a bill for the creation of one Should he be successful in his efforts, there will be many who know of his work among the veter- ans to demand that he be given the as he does, certainly the appointment yof MT Newton could not be improv- ed upon.
 It is not difficult to see political straws in the wind which have a sus- picion of national politics in them. even though Arkansas is quite far removed from the political centers where national campaigns have their origin. Arkansans returning from the east. who have had occasion to hobnob with the political wiseacres of the republican party have for some time been declaring that it would take manipulation on the part of the leaders of the c. O. P. to keep the name of General Pershing from getting before the next conven- tion. They indicate there is now a propaganda under way, seeking to show why Gen. Pershing would not make a good president. and what folly 1t would be to place him. an un- tried national figure, at the head of the ticket.
 Q This was mostly before the death of former President Theodore Roose- welt, and the efforts were to keep down the Pershing feeling until the former president had ben named by the republicans. Fears were ex.- pressed that should the name of General Pershing get before the con!. vention there would be a stampede which would make him the nominee in spite of the well laid plans of re- publican men.
 Now we hear Pershing talk from another source Prominent dem- ocrats who have recently returned from Washington and Nov York are freely talking Pershing as the Demo cratic nominee. They believe that with this name before the people there can be but one result. and it can be readily seen here that the sol dier vote here would be practically one way.
 { Pershing's politics has been ire quently discussed in the past year, and so far as known the result has been a dog fall Gen. Pershing is supposed to be Republican, but 1t is doubtful if he has cast more than one or two votes in a presidential campaign in his entire career, he be- ing mostly out of the country. a To what Arkansas democrats this name has been suggested, the morsel was delicate one, and it would not | be surprising to see the Arkansas delegation go to the next national

The member with oratoricai powers who would infilct them upon the galleries and his fellow members pulled up short when the echo short circuited in his ears and began to complain that it was impossible to understand an ordinary conversation in the room. Every sort of home made device has been tried to cor rect the fault in the transmission of sound waves. but with little result. Finally committee was appointed to look into the matter and report what should be done to make the sound waves behave. It Is now re- ported that a responsible concern has been found who is willing to carpet the floors, hang screens from the dome. and otherwish break. up sound waves in both chambers for the paltry sum of $27.O00.

 The house is keeping up with the senate by working longer hours in the day, and this week will com mence the night sessions. All this is necessary, and recognizing the fact, those less inclined to work on the floor, and more in the commit tees, are not even chasing the work CTS as battle axers.''
 It is no reflection on presiding officers of former general assem- plies to speak in the most compli- mentary manner of the two now ruling over house and senate. Form CT assemblies have had remarkably able presiding officers, but it is seldom in history that both branches are so well cared for as at present. Both presiding officers were chosen without opposition and days prior to the opening of the session This re-
  fighting and the presiding officers are for the whole instead of for the part Both are exceptionally well versed in parliamentary procedure, as we'll as being able speakers, possessed of the boise necessary in a successful presiding officer, and above all things, they are fair. There is no hemming or having over de- cision and it comes forth clear out and concise, accepted by all as final.
 President Harry L. Ponder is a stickler for decorum in the senate, and he is member as well as a presiding officer His bills lear largely to good roads, though i'm. proved methods of banking, as we'll as the removal of impediments 10 le- gal procedure. demand much of his attention. President Ponder is the possessor of a keen sense of humor but it has never yet permitted some of the pranks of former sessions to be repeated.
 Speaker C. P. Newton started the session in rather poor health, but the task of keeping 100 members constantly in line seems to have actually agreed with him. MT. New ton has the profound respect and the cooperation of every member in the house, and no other presiding officer has ever asked for as much, or ex- pected it. Speaker Newton is radi- cally opposed to local legislation. So much so is he that he will not intro duce a local bill. What general measures he has presented are on subjects that are dear to the people. Mr. Newton was for several years superintendent of the Confederate Home, and it is said of him that every veteran expressed regret when he left This is something that was impossible with former superintend- ents Because of the infirmaties of the inmates, and their childishness, former superintendents had constant

LITTLE ROCK LETTER
(By Clio Harper)

Some force that is greater than human resistance is driving both
 House and Senate to superhuman eff Forts and every kind of record es- tabished by every former general assembly, so far as work is concern led, has been smashed. While the humber of bills introduced in the assembly has nothing indicative of "a real ability on the part of either branch, yet it does show that some |work has been done There were BOO bills and fully 100 resolutions, memorials and other measures which were also considered. It is an easy
 matter to introduce a bill, but a
 rather difficult one to put through.
