Opening speeches have been made by J. c. Floyd, Smeade Powell, and T. c. McRea, Tom Terrai, John Riggs, Judge Hay nie, and Frank II Wells are cam paigning vigorously, while the traveiing salesman candidate Harry Walsh, is assuring his friends that he is making all arrangements to leave the road about the middle of next January and take possession of the Gov ernor's Office.
 Headquarters have been ops ened in Little Rock ho els by Floyd, Riggs and Powell, with some of the states best known men in charge of Mir. Powell S headquarters. Harvey G. Combs is in charge of MT. Floyd's inter- ests, and Frank N Hendersc n IS looking after the interests Of John Riggs, the Woman suffrage advocate although there is not candidate for the office who is not now and always has been in favor of the women voting.
 There are issues a-plenty for the campaign. judging from the that are being made up- on most of the existing state de- partments, especially the Com missions. They are game for every candidate to shoot at.

 The attacks of the candidates re centering upon the Highway Commission, the Corporation Commission, and the Tax Com mission. Not much has b en aid yet about the Fish and Game Commission, but there is plenty of time yet. The State board of Control is also coming in for it's share of attention. and the bien- nial stand by of the political can idate ,hePenitentiary Commission is not being neglected.
 Pardon records, extravaganza, extra session of the l.egisla ure, and the budget system are among the other things that sup ply the candidates with unlimited with Wh ch to entertain the voters.
 But the flock of candidates for Governor are not monopolizlng public attention. Senator Kirby and Congressman Caraway, who opposes him for re election, are very much in the linelight. Mr. Caraway has made his opening speech at Benton, and 5 n Ator Kirby is looking over the ground 10 set his batter of big guns for the opening engagement.

 While the Democrats are talk ing so much tune in the selection of ticket, some of the candi- dates have been running for a year,--the Republicans met the other day and nominated a state ticket as fast as they could read the slate. Not content, however with one nominee for Governor, they have nominated two. To be sure, that was the result of a racial controversy, the negroes, denied seats in the Lily White convention. having held a con vention of their own. They nominated vSt. Francis county negro farmer and teacher named BIout as their candidate for Gov ernor He has been certified and has paid his fee, and the negro leaders say they propose to see
 that he runs the race through.

 It is possible, however, that courts will be called upon to de- eide whether Blount's name shall go on the ticket. The re- gular Republicans nominated Wallace Townsend, the popular young Little Rock lawyer, who was DirectSr of the State Coun gil of defense, as their candidate 10 oppose the Democratic nomi- nee. They also named a fuI ticket, except for three offices, arf will enter Chas. r. Cole of BAtesville&gainst the Democratic 1omlnee for the United States Senate.
