BEWARE OF THE SHORT STAPLE.

The Arkansas Cotton Trade Asso- citation has issued warning against Half-and-half and all other short sta pie varieties of cotton. The warning should be brought 10 the attention of every cotton grower in the state.
 The Cotton Trade Association states that Half-and-half and all short staple varieties are unstable and cannot be delivered against contracts in New York and New Orleans. Many buyers will not handle such cotton at all and those who will only take it at a very low price.
 Claims of bigger yields caused short staple cotton to get foothold in Arkansas some years ago. The buy CTS bought it the first year because longer staple. but sInce then buyers have been fighting it. Incidentally the planting of short staple varieties has caused more than one Arkansas town to lose it's standing as cotton market. One small town that in the past attracted many buyers because of the good cotton raised in it's ter ritory and offered there has been stunned by buyers for several years past because growers in that terri tory adopted short staple varieties for a season or two The growers have corrected the error, but it will be some time before the town comes back as a market
 Cotton growers should not be mis- led by claims of big production into planting the varieties against which the Cotton Trade Association warn ing is issued. If they plant these varieties they will, in large measure, throw away years swork.-Arkansas Gazette.

 ndHoLds Pastorate

If you had to milk the COW on Sun day morning, cook breakfast, wash and dress the children for Sunday School, clean up the house, teach a Sunday School class, preach and epn- duct the morning service, go home and
 cook dinner wash the dishes. go out to a mission and preach in the after- noon, go home, milk the COW again, get supper, wash the dishes. take the children to Christian Endeavor, preach
 again at night, go home and put the
 kiddies to bed
 We'll, would you think you had done days work? Is your pastor as in dustrious as all that?
 That is the record of one Missouri
 pastor, the Rev 8. M. Crank, pastor
 of the Christian Church at Greenfield, Mo, as discovered by the recent Kansas City conference of the Inter
 church World Movement. The Rlz.
 Mrs" Crank is no "crank" al all, but
 rather a very CommOn-sense woman,
 who can do several things at the same
 time, and do them all well.
 In addition to her other duties, she
 finds time to be wife and companion
 to her husband, who is also a minister. She has the pastorate at home, while
 he, as she expresses it, is kind enough to take one at distance, in order to
 save her travel.
 For the past 30 years Mrs. Crank has been on the joh as a combination ister-housekeeper, and is as vigor-
 ous as ever Every time new baby came she would think it was time to leave the pulpit, but she has never i done it. Her call to the ministry was too strong upon her, she said. In the 30 years she has built or revived 33 ! churches, baptized $500 persons, mar
 ried hundreds of couples, held untold meetings, raised thousands of dollars
 and has never taken vacation from
 either the nursery or household drudg

 There are several women preachers
 in Missouri, Arkansas and adjoining states, and they are all enthusiastic

DIED OF FRIGHT
Belief os that Engineer at Texarkana
 Died of Fright.

Texarkana, March 20.-High officials of the Missouri Pacific railway today are Investigating the theory that En- gineer Joe Hickman, of fast mail train No. 2, already was corpse when his engine collided head on with equip ment train No 38 Thursday evening in the local yards, resulting in the deaths of Engineer Hickman and Fireman Thomas. The theory is advanced be- cause of the fixed expression of hor- TOT on the dead engineers face, the fact that air was not applied on his train at all, and torpedo and lantern signals were disregarded by the en- gineer and his train crashed into the equipment train at full speed. The theory is that Engineer Hickman died of heart trouble, superinduced by fright The cOronor's jury returned a verdict to the effect the wreck was due to the carelessness of son.e per- son or persons unknown to the jury ------------------------

MANY CANDIDATES FOR
 INTERNATIONAL HOkORS
Many Candidates for Governor But Minor Offices Not Popular on
 Account of Low Salaries.

Little Rock, March 23.--Although there was a general rush of aspirants for the governors office to announce their aspirations, there has been mo- ticeable lack of candidates for minor state offices, due generally to the low salaries which a few years ago were l renumerative, but which in thse times of H. c. L. have few attractions
 There have been a few men amour ce informally that they would seek of i fee. w. B. Owen, state highway com missioner, will seek reelection while Herbert Wilson, chairman of the cor poration commission, has announced that he will oppose MT. Owen.
 Cleveland Reed, who started out to be candidate for secretary of state, has announced his withdrawal to, take up ministerial work, which, he says, in addition to being his calling, is just as renumerative.
 Jim G. Ferguson probably will not be opposed for reelection as commits sioner Of agriculture, and J. B. Bond probably will get his third term os so- position in reelection as treasurer
 Deputy autitor McAnn.s and Smith will seek to take their present boss job as state auditor. Hogan Oliver, the incumbent, will not seek re-elect- ton. Representative Neal Bohlinger and Senator Utley will seek to sue ceed John D. Arbuckle as attorney general MT. Arbuckle's intentions are unknown. He has been spoken of as a candidate for third term as a candi- date for attorney general, but he has made no statement as to his intentions.
 Ain't What it Use to Be.
 Holding office aipt what it used to be- as one of the ola politicians here declared a few days ago.
 It hasn't been many years since a $2,400 yearly salary was pretty good, and election expenses were not ex- cessive. Now campaign costs more than full two years salary, even for the minor offices, if real cam paign against Q strong opponent is necessary.
 One of the candidates for governor is preparing to get out one circular to be sent to the voters of the state. , The printing alone of this circular is going to cost him $2.700. And that does not include the stamps or |. cost of wrapping the clrcuIars, to say ; nothing of the cost of obtaining and compiling mailing lists. And three ol four rounds of circulars sometimes six or eight, are sent out by the average gubernational aspirant.
 Just how some of the candidates get by in expenses is one of the mysteries of politics Of course, the friends contribute and if they have a good chance of election credit usually can De obtained for certain amounts Few candidates have unlimited means of their own.
 Goes to Highest Bidder.
 Public office in Arkansas is be- coming the prey of highest bidder the one who has the most money to spend, irrespective of the denials which some aspirants would make to that statement. A poor man hasn' much show not because votes are bought or anything like that, but be- cause he simply lacks the means to adequately present his candidacy to

Goes to Highest Bidder.

Public office in Arkansas is be- coming the prey of highest bidder the one who has the most money to spend, irrespective of the denials which some aspirants would make to that statement. A poor man hasn't much show not because votes are bought or anything like that, but be- cause he simply lacks the means to adequately present his candidacy to the voters.
 Governor Brough stepped out of politics at an opportune time. He went through one gruelling campaign. He had opposition in his second race, although it required little energy on his part to beat L. C. Smith by four or five to one.
 With him out of politics insofar as being candidate is concerned, there are yelled, sometimes open attacks on him creeping into the campaign A 5Oco lOl SONCIhOl are pledging that they will stay at home and attend to the affairs of the state. If they are elected, taking a slap at the governors practice of being out of the state making speeches much cf the time. And some are bringing up the matter of pardon records, be- sides referring to the creation of new offices and the large appropriations which featured the regular 1919 ses- sion of the legislature.
 Despite the lack of candidates for some offices, and the high cost of running the 1920 campaign. however, will not be without its frills for the senatorial race and the gubernatorial scramble will afford plenty of diver sion.

Saturday morning matters began
to open up and the lobby of the ho-

and, IN fact, every place where a

scene of much campaigning. Boga-
lusa still ruled the popular favorlCe
as the convention city, but the fact
that our delegates refused to pledge
their votes to any particular candi-
dates was beginning to tell.
The attendance at the morning
session was very small and the bust
ness consisted only of reports of
numerous committees. Saturday aft
ernOon the 'Fourfold Bonus Bill"
was brought before the convention,
and amid much discussion an many
wrangles, passed practically unani-
mously. The Alvin Callenuar POST
Of New Orleans, which had voted
against the bill almost six months
ago, took stand in favor of it, as
also did the Gregad Post of the same
city.
Jess Johnson, Bogalusa delegate,
speaking for himself and not as a
of Bogalusa, led the
opposition fight, on the ground of in
dustrial complications, but was over
ruled.
Saturday evening the delegates
were carried by buses and autos to
the Spanish Lake Club, four miles
out of the city, where they were
treated to a whale of a fish dinner,
washed down with one-half-of-one.
Following the feed the floor of the
club was cleared and another dance
held.
Sunday morning, the last day, the
convention opened at $50 and the
delegates continued to drift into the
hall until 9:45. During this time
Col. Philpott, commander of the
Third Division u S. A, spoke at
some length on "Americanisn," ex-
planning why the government had /
seen fit to install vocational educa- !
ion as part of army training.
