RACE A SPECIAL,
SAYS TELEGRAPH.

MACON, Nov. 4.-The Telegraph
says: "With a field of four start
ers competing, two PAGERS and two
trotters, n the fourth race of the
day, Lecco Grattan, driven by John
Thomas of Nashville, Tenn, and
owned by Charles Ansley, of Ameri-
Gus, negotiated the mile track at Cen
trail City park yesterday afternoon
in the fastest time of the three days
of racing held at the Georgia State
fair this year. The best time of the
victor in the special race was
2:07 ga, made in the final heat.
"Other starters for this race,
which was arranged by the race offic-
ials as a special attraction, were such
celebrities as Dean Swift, Black Dia-
mond and George Case.
''All three heats were fast and well
contested with the exception of the
final in which Dean Swift ran nip
and tuck with the winner for a half
mile and then failed, because of the
terrific gait the Americas owned
horse was setting. 1t is probable that
had there been another horse in the
race to set the pace. Lecco Grattan
would have lowered his own record,
which was made this season on the
Grand Circuit with the veteran king
of race drivers in the sulky, "Pop''
Geers. His best time is 2:06 Ia"

LECCO THRILLS
FAIR RACEFANS
Ansley Horse Pulls Off
Victory, But Disap-
points Owner

About the most disappointed, and
vet at the same time the best pleas
ed man in Americas last night, was
Chas. L. Ansley The big pacing
event at the Georgia State Fair, the
free-for-all class, in which his grand
circuit PAGER, Lecco Grattan, was en-
tered. was scheduled to be pulled oft,
according to Mr. Ansley's under
standing, this afternoon. Mr.. Ansley
had arranged to go there on the early
morning train to Macon to witness
this big race and a number of his
friends were going with him. Last
night after supper ne was sitting
comfortably in his home when the
phone rang 1t was the Western I'm
ion office calling him to say it had a
message for him which was read over
the phone. He was astounded when
it informed him than the free-for-al
pacing event was pulled off Wednes-
day afternoon and his horse had won
the race, time 2:7 ga, beating a fast
field of PAGERS, among them John R.
Braden, the fastest horse in the
South, with mark of POI 1-2.
Mr. Ansley was pleased that his
horse had won, but his disappoint-
ment was great in that he was not
on hand to witness the going, as this
was Lecco's last race of the year,
and he had looked forward to see
ing the horse in action once more
before the season closed.
He and his friends went to Macon
anyway today, as they are all lovers
of the sport and there was a good
bunch of steppers scheduled to start
today, although not of the class of
yesterday as Braden and Grattan are
the two fastest in the South.
1t is possible that Mr. Ansley may
bring Grattan home for few weeks
and in the event he does, he will be

SUMTER FAIR
INSURED, TOO
Stockholders Take Out
Policy Against Loss
At Gate

In line with the big state fairs and
expositions throughout the country,
the Sumter County Fair association
at a meeting of the stockholders and
directors held yesterday, decided to
take out insurance against any loss
which may be sustained as result OF
keeping the crowds away from the
big show next week. The protection
thus afforded, it is stated, assures
those who have invested in the stock
of the association that they will stand
practically no chance of losing even
though the weather should be unfav-
orable.
It is evident that officials of the
fair are leaving nothing undone to
make the enterprise a success from
every standpoint, both for exhibitors
and visitors. as we'll as for those who
are backing the proposition in fl
nancial way. Out at the fair grounds
a score or more of carpenters and
workmen have been busy for the past
two or three weeks getting the build
ings and grounds in shape. Streets
have been graded, stalls, pens and
show places erected to take care of
the hundreds of fine cattle, hogs and

LITTLE ROCK LETTER

The returns of the census now be-
ing made verify the prediction that
had been made that the cities and
towns are gaining in population at
the expense of the rural districts.
This has been a theory for several
wears, but now it is being proven by
actual statistics. The tide has been
flowing steadily from the farm to
the city and the great increase IN
urban population in which our news
papers and commercial organizations
have taken such great pride, turns
out to be purely "a selfish PROPOSE
ton. The great army of consum-
sumers is growing far more rapidly
than the producers. This undoubt-
eddy accounts more than any other
one factor for the prevailing high
prices of all the necessities of life.
The primal law of supply and de-
mand which some seem to have over
looked is asserting itself more defin-
itely than ever. before.
An analysis of the census returns
for Arkansas SO far as made public
justifies this theory in fact. For in
stance, sixteen rural townships of
lizard county show a positive re-
duction in population since 1900 of
2O68, although the county as a
whole has an increase of 265. Four
townships of Clark county show a
reduction of 633 although the coun-
ty has an increase of 4,343. Four
townships in Arkansas county show
a decrease of 1855 although the
county has splendid increase of
$50. Only one township in Ne
vada county shows decrease, but
the county has an increase of more
than 5000. Four townships in La
fayette county 452 short but the
county has 1923 more population

ships indicated similar decreases for
the most part appear in the last ten
years. On the other hand, few, if
any, Of the cities or incorporated
towns show a decrease, practically
all of them being considerably ahead
of previous enumerations.
