The committee of As will not cut
much figure in the coming contest of

time to thoroly organize the new party

Republicans be mighty careful in

effort to obtain a pardon for his ia
Their, who is serving penltentlary
sentence for the crime, George, A
lille. Jr., of Cincinnati today con-
fessed to having murdered George
Hester in Cincinnati three3Sears ago.
Il am the guilty one" Hile told the
clemency board during the hearing
of an appeal for pardon from George
A. Hile, Sr. my father took the
blame" young Hile said. While
playing a game of pool. Hester sturck
my father with a pool cue. He had
no provocation for doing it. Natur-
ally my father wanted to fight but
was restrained by his friends. That
same night after he had told me
about the affair, he and | again went
to the pool room. Before going |
took a revolver with me.

ARE FOLKS EQUAL?

We make much in this country OF
the word equality" it is our dear
est boast that we are all equal. But
no one actually accepts the doctrine.
II we are all equal how does it come
that one man says he should be sent
to Congress, while the rest of us re-
main at home and pay his salary? He
must think he knows more than we
do. And we are not equal If one
man knows so much more than the
rest of us that he is entitled to live
in luxury at Washington and devise
taxes for us to pay.
Another man says he knows we
are sinners and he is not, and pro-
ceeds to preach that we should join
his church. Does this man think we
are all equal? Certainly not.
Another man is an editor and is
constantly telling us what we should
do. Evidently he does not think we
are all equal. If he did he would
think we might have ideas as good
as his, and let us alone.-Ed Howe's

Politicians AU0it
The Extra Session


Little Rock, Jan. 14.-The politi-
cal bee in Arkansas is expected to
do considerable buzzing during the
special session of the legislature,
which convenes at noon January &c.
Many aspirants to the various Off
ces are awaiting that time to decide
definitely whether to get into the
race. Politicians and would-be poll
ticians from all over the state are
respected to gather in the capital city
during the session to discuss the sit
uation with friends and advisers.
| The question of advancing the
date of the primaries, which proba-
bly, will be brought before solons at
the extra session, doubtless will pre-
cipitate considerable oratory. The
date was changed to August at the
last regular session. However, it is
said that unless it is moved up to
some time before June 20 Arkansas
will not be represented at the Demo-
cratic National Convention at San
| Francisco. 1t was the general be.
the State Committee had authority
to appoint delegates, but Homer S
Cummings, national chairman, has

Despite the assertion of Mr.. Cum
mings some members of the Stat,
Committee still contend that tn,
body can appoint delegates to tn,
national powwow. The question will
be thoroughly thrashed out Januar,

at the Hotel Marion. Joe w. House
