TRAVELLING SALESMAN
 KILLLSFORMER SHERIFF
M. H. Patterson We'll Known Woodruff County Politi-
 clan Killed at Jelks

Augusta May 21-Marshall H. Patterson, aged 60, former sheriff and member of the Arkansas legislature for many years, was shot and killed by Ed Harris, aged 30, travelling salesman. in the railroad sta- tion at Jelks, at 3 o'clock Fri day afternoon.
 It is said that Patterson's S ire had been aroused by the fact that he accused Harris, among others. of havng cir eulated stories that Patterson had been paying clandstine visits to a woman living in Jelks.
 Patterson, who was 50 years of age, was shot eight times by Harris and instantly killed. Harris who is 30 years old, claims that Patterson was the aggressor asd that Patterson attempted to draw a gun. A pistol was found in Patter- sons pocket after the shoot ing, but if he attempted to draw he was killed or render ed helpless before he could reach 1t.
 Patterson was at the ticket window yesterday afternoon when Harris entered, and was talking with the ticket agent Harris either was accompanied Iby his employer, J. W. Mullins when he entered the station or Mullins came in immedi- ately after. Patterson was said to have remarked to the ticket agent, using an epithet, that there were two more - that were circulating lies about him and that no man could d ) that and live.
 According to Harris state ment to the sheriff, Patterson was sitting on the edge of a desk and made movement to draw pistol. Harris said that he pulled his own gun and began firing. Patterson fell t the floor at the third shot, he said. Harris emptied his gun, and then stepped behind a pat tition, reloaded his gun, and came out and fired two more shot, all six taking affect ln in Patterson's body. Harris sta ted to the sheriff that after emptying his gun he thought Patterson was still trying to fire at him and if was because of this that he reloaded his own gun and fired two more shots.
 Harris alleges that Patter- had previously threatened his life.
 Patterson leaves a wife, one son, Bennett Patterson, a law student in Washington, D. C., and three daughters. Miss Ori- ole Patterson, a student at Gal loway College, Searcy, and Misses Mildred and Olive Pat terson, school teachers, one oi whom is in Hawaii and the other at some point in the west
 Harris has wife and two children.

McRAE EXPECTED TO
 SEEK REELECTION
Rather Early But Lii Up Being Made by State Cam
 didate For Primary

Little Rock, May 24.-Gov. McRae has failed to satisfy the curiosity of a good many state politicians who are anx- ious to know whether i will be a candidate to succee himself in the Democratic pri-
 next year. While poll ticians have been guessing, Governor McRae has steadily declined to announce his plans.
 From sources believed to be reliable, however it is learn ed that Governor McRae will be a candidate, and at the proper time will make a for mai announcement. There was a time when Governor McRae had no plans to be a candi- date for second term.
 Since then, however, the legislature wrecked major portion of his legislative pre- gram. He was thraWted in many of his plans, and was without means of changing the decision. To carry out his platform, he will seek re- election, and along with his own campaign, will be a cam paign for election Of a legis- lature sympathetic with his policies.
 There have been reports that Governor McRae woulo have opposition if he ran fol reelection.
 There are two members e1 the 1921 Senate who aspire to be gubernatorial candi. dates. They are Senator Lee Cazort of Lamar, president of the last Senate, and Sena. tor Albert Walls of Lonoke who was an administration leader during the first half ot the session. It is not known whether either Senator CaZort CT Senator Walls would run against Governor MeRae next year, however, with the Gov ernor seeking a second term.
 There are several other off ces which probably will be tie center of contests in the next primary election. These are superintendent of public in- struction, commissioner of agriculture, state treasurer. railroad commissioners and one associate justice of the supreme court.
 Uncle" Joe Ferguson is ai- so mentioned prominently in political circles as a third term aspirant as state treas urer. However, Uncle Joe himself declares that he has not fully determined in his own mind what his action wi be in this respect.
 It is considered as a certain tv that the present members of the Arkansas Railroad Commission, all of whom are appointed by Governor McRae will attempt to secure ratifi- cations of their appointments at the hands of the people at the next election. They arc w. E. Floyd of Little Rock, Joe Hardage of Arkadelph I and J. c. Walker of Newport.
