Little Rock, August l9.-lf there is
Anything in "rlng' politics, Arkansas
stands today with the shackles re-
moved, being Of political freedom.
A political ring is usually the organi-
zation Of the opposition, or the sup
port Of the candidate who has the
backing Of the office holdeds. For the
first time in the history Of Arkansas
men who have taken a foremost stand
in politics, men who have been bene-
ficiaries Of elections won. are entirely
out OK the fold. There we're no rec
ognized factions fighting in the recent
primary. and neither won. Practical
~ every person holding an appointive
office in the state overnment was
a supporter OF Mr.. Powell. and active
~ worked in his behalf. So conf
dent were they that a winner had
been picked that all bridges were
burned behind hem. They fought Mr..
McRae right up 10 the time the polls
closed This means that Mr.. Mcaae
is under 40 obligations to any of the
so-called PROFESSIONAL politicians
and that there will be a new deal all
around II is understood that Mr.. Nc
Rae will make radical change in the
personnel Of state boards, and that
the penitentiary commission Will be
selected with the intention of making
the state farms revenue producers in
stead of continual drains on the state
treasury. 1t is intimated that sever
al large and successful planters may
be asked TO serve on this commission
and IL not actively, to become adj
visers. giving the state the advan-
tage of their knowledge of farming
on lare scale.
What is said for the state govern
ment and the patronage that goes
with a change OF administration, holds
equally ais God for the national pie
appointees opposed Mr. Caraway and
should the democratic administration
be extended thru the election OF Gov
ernor Cox in November. there win be
a general house cleaning there Also
Should the republicans triumph there
will be no pie for the democratic par
" to pass around, but the indications
right now are excellent for another
democrat in the White House, in
which case Mr.. Caraway's strong sup
poflSfs may DO conStucIcu iDt Athdhr

The results OF the election were not
surprising to the political student. It
was evident for some days prior to
the election that votes we're shifting
To Mr.. McRae from all other candi-
dates but Mr.. Powell. It was a fight
between Mr.. Powell and the field, and
when the word was passed around
that Mr. McRae was the strong anti
Powell candidate. and verified by men
who had been high In the councils OF
the other candidates, Mr.. McRae Sc
cured the advantage of this informa-
ton Terral received considerable
portion Of thi shifting vote. For the
first time within the memory OF local
politicians, the candidates who took
the lead in the start held it right
thru. The first precincts to report
showed Caraway, McRae, Utley, Hop
per. Tucker, Mccullough and Wilson
in the lead and they never surrender
ed it. In former races first one can
didate and then the other took the
lead making 1t wildly exciting at

REPORTS DROP Is 537,952

The monthly report of untitled orders
of the United States Steel Corporation
on October 81. issued yesterday, shows
total tonnage OF that class Of 1886, $50
drop of 537, s52 from the 1o.374.so4 tons
reported at the end OF September
which is in contrast TO decline of a
little more than 10000 tons in Septem-
Der from the August figures.
Yesterdays report indicated. il was
said that incoming business was q
little more than so per cent. of the out
put. The corporation is running its
steel plants at close to 80 per cent. of
capacity and the slowing up of business
with independent steel companies has
not made any appreciable impression
on the Steel Corporations operations.
The reason for that condition. 1t was
said yesterday, was that prices which
the Steel Corporation was charging for
its products continued to be consider
ably below those of the independents,
Notwithstanding recent cuts made by
the latter.
The following table gives the monthly
untitled tonnage reported since jan
uary, 1913:

SANTIAGO Chile. Nov. 10.--The abnor-
nal rise in the value of the United
States dollar recently. which was quoted
at seven pesos forty centavos yesterday,
will have a tendency to restrict sharply
purchases in the United States at pres
ent according to the opinion expressed
in financial circles to-day. Chilean ex-
change was 9.29 pence TO 9.32 pence per
peso on Tuesday, calculated in terms Of
British currency.
: It was pointed out that firms with
connections in the United States, such
as importers or purchasing agents for
Chilean houses, realize that transactions
based on sterling are handicapped by its
fall owing to the depreciation of the
pound sterling In North American mar
kets. The normal quotation of the dol
lar was around five pesos.
