There are eight avowed candidates for the Democratic nomination for the governorship and every single one of them makes the pledge. as a bait for votes. that all in the world he wants the governorship for is 50 that he may reduce state administration ex- nsnSe. and each selects a different place at which to lay the axe at the roos of taxation. It must be quite ap- parent that what Arkansas should do is to nominate and elect the whole bunch of them and tell them to % to it. Between them all Arkansas should Dc able to operate on nothing ct all.-- Fort Smith Times Record.
 It might he a fine thing to follow the suggestion put them all to work at the problem, but it is not. It is early in the campaign. The real con- test has hardly begun, and yet the speeches that are being made certain ly do not appeal, on the whole, to fair ness and intelligence of men and wo- men. In some the appeals 70 prejudice, to ignorance--the plain insineerity and demagogery Is both distressing and disgusting. IL looks too much like wild chase after office and not like dignnied. statesnanlike offering of service to the state. That is not 8 good start toward getting sane re- suits from combined effort--and even while the suggestion was but joke, taken altogether is is not even funny,
 And, the worst of is is, there is not. at this time, any particular assurance that the best, or even the seconi or third best man will he chosen.
 In fass. Nus of the eight, the leas; qualified and the biggest demagogus stands as good show as any to bS gowrnOr of Arkansas,

PAPER SHORTAGE
 IS CLOSER HOME

The print paper shortage, despite all reasonable efforts on the part of The Star. is getting uncomfortably close. To be exact, there is on aand but a 2-weeks' supply, and as an in dication of the seriousness of the sit uation. an express shipment of 1000 pounds. barely enough for two weeks, has been wired for, and here is the latest word from the Graham Paper Company. the biggest house west of the Mississippi, from whom The Star buys thousands of dollars worth of stock each year;
 We haven't sheet in the house.
 A ear Is enroute; fear it will be
 week before we can ship. On ar
 rival win ship part of order, hold
 ing balance for next car"
 In the meantime the report comes that the Arkansas Gazette has of fered l6c a pound for car of roll paper, and the Arkansas Democrat is refusing all display advertising ex- ccpt one column for the theaters.
 ". T. Barry. representing the Gra- ham Paper Company, in Mena this week, states that beyond doubt many papers will suspend publication with in few days.
 Just what the outcome will be no one seems able to tell, and The Star can only say that it will continue to get cut its regular paper as long as it is possible to get the stock, and some kind of a paper as long as 1t has any kind of paper in stock on which it can be printed
 But. for all that the 'going" can hardly he considered good.

 The list of candidates as selected by the nominating committee was ap- proved by unanimous vote of the 90 delegates in the convention.
 That the new Citizens movement will make a vigorous effort to elect the candidates for offices is indicated by the selection of its campaign com mittee.
 The committees personnel includes some of the best known speakers in the movement and the coming cam paign in Polk county will no doubt re- suit in some lively debates and ad- dresses.
