One More Ballot Might Have Made
 Davis Nominee

Charleston, w. Va., July 12.-Plans had been made to turn the tide in the democratic national convention in fa- vor of John w. Davis, ambassador to Great Britain, on the forty fifth bal lot, had Governor Cox failed to be nominated on the forty-fourth, Gov ernor John J. Cornwell declared here today.
 Governor Cornwell returned to Charleston yesterday from San Fran cisco where he placed Davis name be- fore the democratic convention.
 "No one in the convention was more surprised over the sudden Cox land slide on the forty-fourth ballot than the Cox managers themselves" the governor said. "They were hoping that he might eventually be nominat- ed, but they had no idea it was coming so suddenly.
 "It was generally understood that McAdoo, having been given one more chance for rally, which failed, the Cox forces were to be given the same opportunity, and it was to produce the same results.
 "We had agreements by which Ala bama, which had voted two to six for Davis all the way through, was to vote solidly for him on the firty fifth ballot and this was to be followed by enough other states to run his vote to 200 or 300 on the forty-fith ballot and carry him over on the next. But the Cox whirlwind came on the forty fourth and it was all over." 1 While admitting his disappointment in the failure of convention to select Davis, Cornwell said he was well pleased with the nomination of Gov ernor Cox, and expressed himself as being the democrats strongest ticket with Cox and Roosevelt as the stand ard bearers.

Four Negroes Hold Up MOtOrman Near
 BellWOOd Cemetery

Four negroes, two of them armed with pistols and two with clubs, held up J. I. Jordan, motorman of the Pine Bluff company, Saturday night at the end of the cemetery car line and relieved him of about SIP, ac cording to statement made by Jor- dan to the police.
 Jordan says that just after he had changed the trolley at the end of the line and was ready to start back, a negro entered the car and asked him to change dime. The negro de- posted the dime in the fare box; about the same time some one jerked the trolley from the wire and put the car in darkness. A pistol was put in his face and he was ordered to leave the car and was carried into the woods. Here, he said, someone searched him and took the money, about $50 of which belonged to the Pine Bluff company and the rest his own which he had received that night.
 It is believed that the robbery was perpetrated by someone who knew that Jordan possessed this unusual amount of money, besid les that which belonged to the Pine Bluff company. Jordan was doing extra duty on the Main-Pullen line, having been on the West, Sixth line the day previous.

 MT. Freeling pointed out the pardon granted w. J. Creekmore by MT. Da- vidson, also governor ad interim, de- clared Creekmore was convicted "of the crime of selling intoxicating li- quors," where as the conviction actu- ally was for conspiracy to violate the prohibition laws. Upon that tech nicality the attorney general said, a petition could be filed in court asking that the pardon be declared in- valid.
 Hearing by the criminal court of appeals of MT. Freeling's petition for a new mandate ordering H. M. Fulker- son to be taken to the penitentiary is set for Tuesday morning.

SENATOR CALDWELL TO RECEIVE HONOR
 OF REORGANIZATION

Senator Creed Caldwell, who has represented Jefferson county in the upper house of the Arkansas general assembly for the past term, is to be honored with re-nomination by the democrats without opposition.
 Senator Caldwell's record, his leg ion of friends will enthusiastically tell you, is one of which he can well be proud of-reflecting ability and conscientious effort on his part to serve the best interests of all the people of Jefferson county.
 A man of the people, Senator Cald- well is very democratic in his views and his actions, and is ever on the alert to safeguard the welfare of the masses. At the same time, his ex- perience, his legal training and his judicial mind makes him competent to see that business organizations have rights which should be respect ed by the state, and his fairness makes him willing to stand for pro- lection and fair dealing with asso- cations as well as with individuals
 Senator Caldwell was not aligned with any coterie' or faction, holding aloof from such affiliations because he believed his first duty was to Jefferson county Nevertheless he was consulted by both administration and anti-administration forces, and newspaper accounts of the proceed lngs of the legislative body indicate he was regarded as one of the few real leaders in, the senate.
 His re-nomination without opposi- tlon is interpreted by his friends as appreciation of his work, and a merit ed tribute.
