BIG FIGHT COMING
 IN LEGISLATURE
Reform Policies Advocated by Gov. McRae Will Meet With
 Bitter Opposition

Little Rock, Sept. 28.-The Democratic State Convention has gone on record emphati- cally and unequiYocally in support of the doctrines that were advocated so strenuously by Col. T. c. McRae in his campaign for the nomination of governor. One of the strongest blanks in his plat form demands the abolition of the Arkansas Corporation Commission, the Board of Control, the Penitentiary Commission and State High way Department @as now con- stituted." The Committee drafting the platform had through an oversight neglect ed to mention the Penitentiarv Commission and when Col. McRae asked that this be in- cluded in the list of inhibited agencies, there was not a word of dissent.
 This means that there will be staged in the 43rd General Assembly, one of the bitterest contests that has occurred in the legislative body in many years. All four commissions or boards have their strong personal following and it is certain that the radical chang es demanded will not be made without a fight. Col. McRae himself realizes that he will not have smooth sailing, but that many tempestuous days are ahead for him for the months of January and Feb ruary. If, however, he is able

Is. THE AVERAGE HUS-
 BAND TOO GOOD FOR
 THE AVERAGE WIFE?

Whats wrong with the average husband?"
 Hes too goodr
 Such is the opinion of John Emerson.
 "The average husband" says MT. Emerson, Ifs required to do a hard days work in order to make a living. And when he does come home he is too tired to take his wife out and show her a good time. The wife, bored to death by her everyday hum-drum existen- ce, makes up her mind to look for excitement on her own hook.
 And what is the result?- Constance Talmadge tells you in Tn Search of a Sinner" at the Royal, Tuesday, Oct. 5.

TWO STILLS LOCATED
 ON BLACK RIVER

E. R. Hooper, special reve- nue officer, and Sheriff Noah Harris and some deputies To- cated two wildcat stills in the Black river swamps near Lockhart last Sunday.
 The first was a still of about 60 gallons capacity and had been in operation for some time. The still was de- stroyed but the officers failed to capture any whiskey. Ano- ther still was found in the same locality, containing about 200 gallons of beer ready to run. This still, it is said, was one of the best equipped of it's kind the officers had ever cap tured, and was very skillfully built, The beer and the still were both destroyed. None of the operators were caught.

MANY PERSONS HURT
 WHEN TRAINS COLLIDE
Pacific Wreck at Malvern Due to Misunder-
 standing of Orders

Little Rock, Sept. 29.- Twenty-Five persons were in jured, several of them serious ly, when Missouri Pacific pas senger trains Nos. 233 and 36 collided head-on near Malvern, Ark. last night.
 The most seriously injured was Miss Mary White of Prescott, Ark, whose back was severely wrenched and who probably suffered inter- nal injuries.
 Mrs. 0. N. Wallace of Ely, Ne, also was injured internal ly. Both locomotives and four express cocahes were derailed. It was said that the wreck was due to a misunderstand- ing of orders. The injured were brought to Little Rock.

to secure as thorough support among the members of the House and Senate as he was at the State Convention, he will be able to put over his program with the least pos sible friction.
 But to abolish these four governmental agencies will only increase the problems presented for solution. Hav- ing removed the present ma- ehinery for the management of the states institutions, it will be necessary to substitute somethiny else. It is admitted by all that the railroads, the public utilities, the penal and elemosenary institutions and the good roads program can not and must not be neglected CT left to chance. The state has grown and developed won derfully during the last few decades and that which was sufficient for Arkansas in the latter part of the nineteenth century is wholly inadequate for the requirements of the greater state which is develop ing in the first decade of the twentieth.
 Col. McRae's platform, how ever, as endorsed by the State Convention, is not essentially destructive, but is constructive in the broader sense that 1t demands a system more in keeping with the necessities of modern business methods and stricter economy of re- sources that should character ize a growing state. While the commissions may be abol- ished, other agencies will be substituted which in the wis dom of the lawmakers should produce better ersults. It is more probable however, that there will be a disposition to modify and consolidate exist ing commissions and boards, rather than return to condi- tions which existed prior to their creation.

attend this sale, and many who do not attend will mail bids on these animals. When they are shipped away and have demonstrated their worth in the herds of other breeders they will further increase the popularity and prestige of Arkansas Polands, and we be- lieve that local farmers should not let northern men take all this stock away, but we should keep at home some of these exceptional animals in order that in the future we will not only be able to supply the de- mand and maintain Indepen- dence county's record for good Poland China hogs, but that we may ever build up and im- prove the hogs and broaden the reputation that MT. Ben- son has founded for this sec ton of Arkansas.

WHISNANT POULTRY
 WINS FIRST PRIZE

c. c. Whisnant who owns and operates a chicken farm a few miles southeast of New ark, took first prize for White Leghorn cockerel at the Tri- State Fair at Memphis this week.
 MT. Whisnant was also awarded first prize on White Leghofn bullet, and first prize on White Leghorn hen. He had two pens of chickens in addition to his other poultry and won second prize on young pen and fourth prize on old pen.
 Mr. Whisnant owns some fine chickens and the fact that our chickens won first prize in a big contest like the Tri- State Fair is quite an honor to Independence county.

BIG HOG SALE IN
 NEWARK SATURDAY Some of the Finest Hogs in The South Will Be Sold
 Here at Auction

Next Saturday, October 2, the biggest livestock event ever held in the State will take place right here at home in Newark, when Herbert Ben sons auction sale of Big Type Poland China hogs takes place at 80 o'clock that afternoon.
 Mir. Benson's hogs are known as the Sunkist herd, and Sunkist Polands are fav- orably known in over half 3 dozen different states. Mr. Benson has received letters from breeders in different states where he has shipped hogs, marvelling at the size and beauty of hls hogs, and asking for information con- cerning Arkansas and how he raises hogs here.
 Herbert Benson started raising Poland Chinas several years back. and his aim has been to produce some of the best hogs of this breed that grow. To this end he has not spared money nor effort to get some of the best bloodlines of the breed, and in his herd will be found the offspring of the best Polands in existence, among them being pigs sired lby a grandson of Wn. Wrig- ley's $18,000 boar, Fessey's Timm, Gertsdale Jones, and other noted sires that mean prominence to those breeders who study bloodlines. It was here at home that the Dyna- mo, the boar that sold to Mis- souri breeders for $5,000 was raised, and Mr. Benson also has several head of this big boar's offspring which will go in this sale.
 Early this year Mir. Benson sold w. c. Camfield < Sons of Neosho, Mo-, five spring gilts bred by the Dynamo. In the Camfield sale held September IA these five gilts sold for fif- teen hundred dollars-three hundred dollars apiece.
 This proves beyond question that Sunkist Polands are ex- traordlnary. MT. Benson and Sunkist Polands have turned the eyes of northern breeders upon Arkansas. Every breed- CT in every state in the Union where hogs can be produced has read or heard about Sun kist Polands. Mr. Benson has extensively advertised his pro- duet .in all trade papers that reach Poland China breeders, and the record some of his hogs have made in the salering in northern states has directed the attention of every north ern and southern breeder to Newark, Arkansas.
 Many of the best informed hog breeders of the country have told Mr. Benson that he has the finest herd of Poland China hogs in the entire south. He has earned this by produc- ing only the very best, and we believe that this first auction sale of Sunkist Polands is only the beginning of a prominence that will mean that breeders from everywhere will look more and more to Arkansas and Independence county for 1 the hest nuerhred hogs.
