OIL REpuRTED IN
 0UAcnITA COUNTY
Hunter We'll, East of Stephens, 1s Sold to Be Overfl0wfng With
 OIL

Little Rock, April 18.--Arkansas is reported to have producing oil we'll.
 The Hunter well, two and one-half miles east of Stephens, Ouachita county, is overflowing, despite efforts to check the flow until casing could be placed, according to reports re- ceived in Little Rock yesterday. The drillers discovered week ago that on would be found, and immediately ceased drilling. Oil began oozing from the hole Wednesday, it is said.

 As a result of the success of the Hunter we'll the lease market at Stephens and other Ouachita county towns has taken mighty boom. It was reported yesterday that lands in the county are being l4ased at from $25 to $200 an acre. One lease of an 80-acre tract for $5,0O0 was reported.
 Stephens is overflowing with visi- tors. Persons are arriving daily in large numbers. coming in automobiles, trains and wagons.
 The Hunter we'll is owned by s. s. Hunter of Shreveport, La, and Is on property owned by Lester & Harlon.

WOULD BAR CARRANZA ARMY
Arizona Would Bar the CarranZa Army
 With GunS.

Washington, April 18.-Application of Mexican federal army officers for permission to move forces through American territory to attack Sonora on the north created sharp discussion today on the senate floor and before the committee Investigating affairs Meanwhile the request had been re- ferred by the state departmnt to the war department as it was not an of ficial diplomatic communication. No action had been taken tonight by the war department.
 In the senate, Senators Ashurst and Smith opposed vigorously any sug- gestion that the request be granted Senator Ashurst asserted Arizona should oppose any such movement by force if necessary, should the federal government not grant the state pro- tection.
 The senate discussion was halted when Senator Knox, Republican, of Pennsylvania, announced that he had information that the request had been refused although later he said his in- formation was not official, but based on a statement in the New York Sun, which had stated only that the per mission sought would not be granted.
 Before the investigation committee, Henry Lane Wilson, former ambassa- dor to Mexico. continuing his arrange ments of President Wilson's Mexican policy. predicted that the Mexican forc- es would be permitted to pass across American territory to attack the Son ora forces.

PARTY LEADER NEB. ISSUE
Democrats Cf State tO Decide Between
 Hitchcock and Bryan.

Omaha, Neb., April 18.-Leadership of the Democratic party in the conven- tion at San Francisco rests with Tues days primary election in Nebraska. This issue overshadows the fight be- tween Senator Johnson and General Wood and Pershing for Republican preference.
 No one is able to predict with any certainty the result of the fight be- tween Senator Gilbert M. Hitchcock and William Jennings Bryan. Senator Hitchcock entered the Nebraska pri- mary after the Jackson Day dinner in order to defeat Bryan. He stands to- day as the hand of President Wilson reaching out to Nebraska to destroy the Bryan influence.
 MT. Bryan, who came to Omaha to- day to deliver three speeches said in an interview:
 q am going osSan Francisco as a delegate to the convention to help save the Democratic party from the men who wrecked it in 1904 with a Wall street condition, and from those who are trying to wreck it this year with a brewery crowd I helped save the Democratic party from Wall street domination at Baltimore and I hone to save it this year from the domination of both the reactionaries and the vets"

GOOD MARKET FOR SWEETS
Certified Seed Should Be Used and
 Uniform Color Preserved.

Little Rock, April 18.-Jumbo sweet potatoes will find good market at canning plants this fall if they are grown from certified seed of unmixed variety. These two points are of pri- mary importance if good price is to be obtained, say J. H. Hull, field agent in marketing, with the Agricultural Extension Division.
 Canning factories demand smooth, disease free potatoes of unmixed var iety and uniform color for their first grades and growers who wish to real ize the greatest profit must bear these points in mind Certified seed is an important point to be considered in this connection and one canning fac tory at Fort Smith has adopted the plan of furnishing certified seed at cost price to growers, who market their potatoes with them.
 "A large percentage of the sweet potatoes delivered to us last fall were diseased and of different var ities, causing us to can product that showed various colored potatoes in the can-something that the market does not want," says c. J. Bodenheim, gen. eral superintendent of the Good Roads Canning Company at Fort Smith in a recent lettsr, to N;f. Tull. "It is just as sasy fA},AxE rs to raise sweet pota- toes ofl p4d variety and without disease. 1GHsnake sweet potato grow ing success we must get away from the idea that any kind of seed will do If we do not get started now of our own accord, the government will com pei us to do so sooner or later"
 MT. Full commends the statements of this commercial organization to the growers of the state and urges every farmer to secure certified seed or select his seed with the utmost care to secure disease-free and pure seed for planting for the protection of his individual profit on the crop.

BANkHEAD HIGHWAY NOW
 SEEMS \ CERTAINTY
All Factions Agree, and Ire in liar mOny for the First
 Time.

Hot springs, Aprll 1l.-Onlteo AOA the first time in it's history into one big harmonious body, with all faction al differences eliminated and all ele- ments perfectly satisfied, the new Board of Directors of the Bankhead National Highway Association, fol- lowing the adjournment of the annual convention, held it's first meeting in the parlors of the Eastman hotel this afternoon.
 Gov. o. A. Larrazolo of New Mex ico told the board members that his visit to Hot Springs had been Dene' Hcial and had given him a greater vision of the importance of good highways in general and the Bank head, which passes through his state' in particular. He wanted the new oi- i,cials of the organization to realize hat he woud go back to his state de- nrmined to Ego the limit for the early completion Of the highways as laid out by the pathfinders.
 The one feature that saved wbat many feared would be a disorganiza- t;on of the Bankhead National High way Association was the unanimous adoption of the report that dlvsdeo the route into separate divisions. lHe original path of the Bankhead Na'on- al Highway had been mapped out oy nathAnders who made the trip by auto- mobile from Washington to San Diego Cal. Many towns tried to get on the main line''. Not all were successeui' Since that time there has been more or less dissepsion in the organization .,neals . have been numerous, and the action ot the old Board of Directors questioned at times. Particularly was fiat true in reference to the contest .a,ween Texas and Oklahoma. me official route designated the Southern portion, passing through Texas ana a,ssatisfying Oklahoma as "orancn of the highway. Oklahoma declined to .ccfnt the designation, and although few know 1t outside of the convenuon' c.,ahoma was the controlling power at the meeting in this city.
 Led by Charles McPherrin' president oe the Four States branch, the oKla- nomans came into the convention with RIP 900 in cash, representing l2,ooo votes, and mildly suggested that IL might be a good thing to bring up the various questions and begin voting.
 All Contests Settled.
 The decision to divide the Bank head National Highway into divisions which places all branches on an equal footing with the original route. was readily accepted by the Oklahoma representatives, for they have done more road construction than any other mo section since the route has been laid out.
 The contest in Texas was practically settled in the same manner, ana aeaih Oklahoma. with the organization in It's vest pocket, showed spirit of O. onerating, by agreeing that on the Roard of Directors. the state should have two divisions, giving Texas, De- cause of the mileage of the highway in that commonwealth, six representa- lives. while other states have only $.
