POWERS FUNERAL
 HELD THURSDAY

Funeral services for Karl T. Powers, who died in Spokane Mon day night, were held at the Metho- dist church at 2 o'clock yeserday. The services were conducted by Rev. c. E. Smith and burial was in Whitefish Cemetery.
 Mr. Powers was born in Kirksville, Mo-, October 1, 1869 and was married September 26, 1907 at Memphis, Tenn. to Anna Hach who survives him. Six children were born to them, of which five are living.
 They moved to Whitefish over three years ago, and Mr. Powers served as yardmaster for the Great Northern here from February, 1917. to October, 1918, after which he was employed in the local yards as a switchman un- til he became to ill to attend to his duties, last December. His health had been rapidly failing since that time and it became evident several weeks ago that there was no chance for his recovery.-Spokane (Wash.) Daily of May 23.

SPEECH OF HON. THOMAS C. MRAEI
 CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR. ATT 0 SEARCY, MAY 29.

Under the present administration the number of officials and employees in the machinery of state government has been increased by 42. Many of these are useless to the state
 Favored Attorneys.
 Favored attorneys are fattening upon the public treasury. Officials whose time belongs to the state are drawing their salaries and running for office, or managing the campaigns of others.
 The nuisance of the pardon broker is yet unabated
 The Real Issue of This Campaign.
 The outstanding and paramount issue of this campaign is to get clearly before the people a sane and sensible program for simplifying our state government, restoring it to the people and reducing expenses.
 This will be much easier than it might seem. propose to stay on the job 1 am not and never will be a can didate for the United States Senate, as is the case of some of my opponents, nor do l have any ambition to go out on dress parade before the people of this or other states. I am going to know what is happening every week of my incumbency, if I am elected.
 A governor should be what the name implies He should keep in vital touch with the operation of the charitable institutions The governor should know what is going on in the penitentiary. He should be acquainted with the work of the various departments.
 Tn fact, it is a big business job, to be the right kind of chief executive for great and growing state. The tan gible valuation of Arkansas own pro- perties, including buildings, peniten- tiary. equipments etc, aggregates more than ten million dollars and un- der the machinery of state government millions of dollars annually are collect ed and expended.
 It is my firm opinion that the people of this state need and desire business executives in office more than they need or desire political shrewdness My sole ambition IS to crown my career in my native state with q clean ana business-like administration as gover' nor. I have no ambition beyond that I promise you business administra' tion uncontrolled by professional poll ticians and run in the interest of the men and women who pay the taxes.

he office of governor It is true that have been attacked by several of them already, and I am not foolish enough to suppose that they will cease to attack me until after the election on August 10. But I am unable to see how I could aid the cause of good gov ernment or common decency by match ing methods with some of them. I be- lieve most of what they are telling on each other, but if I permitted them to engage me in the only kind of politics they are killed in, I would be at dis advantage. It is evident that trey are of the familiar breed of modern poll ticians. The people l talk with seem to think so, This country has grown used to all this. It is only by pulling awoy from the beaten path of profes- sional politics that we can bring relief to the people. I am honestly striving to point logical way out of the will derness of debt and misgovernment, and feel that the life I have lived and the service I have rendered the people should stand as q testimonial to my sincerity of purpose.
 We Live in New World.
 Some politicians say that McRae is nonprogressive, because he stands for retrenchment, because he is trying to halt this dance of death, but l am pro gressive enough to read alright tn signs of the times. The people are go
 ing to take their own government into their own hands. 1t may be true tha I am approaching the evening of life, but I am great believer in the young men and young women of the land.
 Our debt to the returned soldier is very great We have just emerged from the greatest war of all time. Things are not now as they once were, and there is no return to old conditions, but this does not mean that dishonesty and misgovernment is going to be tolerated or condoned. The lightnings of war have given us a new vision.

 May I invoke the spirits of the dead and summon to similar service once more both survivor and de- scendant in this all-important fight for a restoration of government to the neople? I consider our condition in some respects as bad as that under Re nnblican rule nearly half a century ago. Then we overthrow that corrupt rule. and it took us but five years to do it. but for 15 years we have sub mitted to the control of an official des- potism that is fast Merchandising and hankrupting our state.

That the camp is indeed a
success can be seen by the in

more than ever this year, and
especially by the fact that the
average gain per child was 81

Those in charge of the camp
greatly appreciate the attitude
of friends who this year do
mated eight new wooden blan-

are especially grateful to the
