BIG PLOT TO STEAL
 ELECTION THWARTED


 On the night of Tuesday. August 10, ,| 1920, while the ballots were being| counted to determine the peoples choice for governor of Arkansas seven men sat in the office of Pace-Davis in the city of Little Rock and plotted together to steal the election from Hon. Thomas C. McRae and give it to Smead Powell. Three men, of whom the editor of this an office above them and through the open windows heard the entire plot.
 For three hours they listened to the daboical schemes of these political thugs and then they went to the office of prominent attorney and related what they had heard. Upon his advice they put the statement in writing and swore to it before a notary public. They next placed the document inl and the man who is going to succeed him. Representatives of the band of political cut-throats who had planned this dastardly crime against the people of Arkansas were then called in and informed that the days of election stealing in this state were over. They were advised in emphatic words to get busy on the telephone and cancel the orders they had sent out over the state to their various lieutenants and thus undo the work of the night.
 In this way was the bOldest and most daring attempt to corruptly steal the franchise of a great state effectively thwarted. Had it not been for the acci- dental presence of the three witnesses and their desire to assist in every pos sible way in the great work of busting the unholy gang from political power in Arkansas, different story would have been written of this election and different man. by virtue of old-time ma iorities from certain machine coun-
  claimed the Democratic nominee.
 We have often heard rumors of crooked work in politics. of plans to steal elections. of dishonest election of ficials manipulating election returns in various ways. but as we stood by that window in the early hours of Wednes- day morning, August 11th, and heard these men coolly and calculatingly plan this big steal, it seemed about the most heard of in the history of politics. It seemed unbelievable to Us that men holding responsible positions under the state government could enter into plot so repulsive to the ideas and instincts of all decent people.
 In view of the information in the hands of the governor, we wonder how long before there will be d grand clean out of certain departments of the state government?
 Four questions arise in this connec- tion:
 Will r. M McCarroll be retained on the Board of Control of State Chari- ties?
 Will E. !. Reeves he retained on the Board of Confrol of State Charitiesf
 WiH Herbert Wilson be retained on the Corporation Commission?
 Will Herbert Wilson be permitted t9 have his name certified as the Demo cratic nominee for Highway C0mmis- sioner?
 We await the outcome with much interest.-Conway Times, J. C. Cub

Byrd DaultOn, of Winchester, Ohio, Is
Horribly Mangled BY Fast
Passenger Train.

When Byrd L. Daulton aged SS
years, a farmer residing about one
mile east of Winchester. O., near the
Elk Run trestle, was run over by an
eastbound N. & W. passenger train his
body literally was cut to pieces and
the various chunks of flesh and bone
scattered along the tracks for dis
tance of 200 yards. trail of his life
blood following along the rails.
The mans face was crushed out of
all resemblance, and the victim of the
frightful tragedy was identified
through his watch which was picked
up along the side of the track and by
grocery slips he carried.
How Mr. Daulton came to be lying
ON the railroad track is a matter OF
speculation. He had been in Winches-
ter that evening and had purchased
some groceries, which he carried in a
basket. He was thought to be under
the influence of some kind of intoxi-
cant before he left town, and 5-ounce
bottle of lemon extract was found, un'
broken in one of his coat pockets
picked up along the track where Il
had been cast aside as it was cut from
his body by the car wheels. He hat
left Winchester about one hour be
fore train run, and may have faller
across the tracks in a stupor while OF
his way home, the backet of grocerie:
pitching to one side of the track. HI
also is said to have been affected witt

Bandits Hold Up Foreman Murphy
Near Concord But He Escapes and
Rune Bandits With Shot Gun
Onto Freight Train.

Mr.. William F. Murphy, foreman of
the c. & o. coal docks near Concord,
was held up at a late hour last night
as he wa sreturning to his home near
the coal docks from Concord with a
basket of groceries on his arm. The
bandits jumped in front of Mr.. Muir
ply as he walked down the railroad
and demanded that he hold UP his
hands. He dropped his basket of gro
ceries and lantern and ran into the
dark finding his way to his home
nearby.
At his home Mr.. Murphy got his
shot gun and went back to where he
had met the men and they had not
touched his basket but they again
showed themselves and he fired at
them twice. Both men jumped onto a
passing freight train and made their
escape.
Although there has been a wave of
banditry throughout the country, this
is the first reported in this section.

consciousness after the stroke.
Miss Hattie was one of the most
beautiful characters in the city of
Maysville and was loved by all who
had the pleasure of knowing her.
Probably no one in the whole of the
city came nearer living an ideal Chris
tion life than she, Although her life
was filled with troubles of many kind,
she remained steadfast in her faith
and for years was an example to
scores.
Since childhood Miss Cooper had
been member of the First Baptist
church of this city and there is not
the least doubt that she vas the most
, faithful member of that congregation
in attendance upon the various serv-
ices. Never was the church door open
ed that she was not present except she
be i'll.
The funeral will be held from the
church she loved so dearly on Sunday
afternoon at 1870 with services by the
pastor, Rev. John A. Davis. Buria
will be in the Maysville cemetery.
Miss Cooper is survived by one sis
ter. Mrs. Molle Johnson, of the Hill
City Road. one brother, Mr.. William
Cooper, of Springfield, Ohio. TIVE
nieces, Mrs. William Greenwood, o

Of Detroit, Mich, as well as on,
