 ISCRITICALLY ILL
DEATH OF WELL KNOWN ARkAN- SAN IS EXPECTED MO
 MENTiRILY.

New York. Feb William r. Me Comb former chairman of the Demo cratic National Committee, is critically i'll and expected to die Ut any time, his phvsjcians announced tonight. He has been suffering from heart disease for many weeks at the home of his sitter.
 The gravity of MT. McCombS illness was confirmed tonight by Frederick k. Ryan, his law partner. He was reticent however concerning information as to where the former democratic chairman could he reached or the names of his physicians.
 Friends of Mr MeGombs said he con tracted cold at the democratic con vention i'll San Francisco last July, and on his return to New York was forced to go to q sanitarium, where he since has spent most of his time. Six weeks ago he suffered a collapse and went to the home of his sister on Long Island.
 He has been known in New York politics for many years, and in 1911 en- tered national politics as campaign manager for President Wilson, then governor of New Jersey He was in strumental in obtaining Wilson's nom inatlon at the Baltimore convention. He then was chose chairman of the Ma. tional democratic committee, and or ganized the political battel which made MT. Wilson president
 The next year he declined the presi- dents offer of the post of ambassador to France He is reported later to have had political differences with the pres ident, resigning the chairmanship of the Democratic national committee in 1916 He ran for United States senator against William Calder of this state in 1916, but was defeated.
 Mir. McCombs was born in Hamburg, Ark, and is a graduate of Princeton University and the Harvard University law school

A CITY'S CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

The Chamber of Commerce in any city or town can become the vehicle of municipal progress, or it may act to the detriment of the incorporated com munity
 Often times have we seen, in the smal Ter towns especially, a Chamber of Commerce whose organization was prompted by selfish motive; mo tive not calculated to help advance the best interests of the town and county; but one that sought to benefit coterie of individuals. We have also seen such Chambers of Commerce dwindle away and their influence die, as a result of such actions.
 We have seen other Chambers of Commerce rise up and flash their dar- ing declarations of pride ill the home town and then after few meetings the same organiza ton would fade away to nothingness for lack of attendance on the part of the members.
 The 'knocker' too, is generally found at the council table of the chamber with his discordant and pessimistic voice ever ready to sound false alarm To have successful and beneficial Chamber of Commerce in any town or city on earth, there must be harmony above all things, and there must be regular attendance of the membership else it will lapse into nothing but a meaningless name.
 The Prescott Chamber of Commerce showes the right spirit-its membership represents the heart and soul of the city-and its object is unquestionably to serve the best of moral and business purposes. To insure its permanent ac- tiyity. let the members attend all regu- lar meetings.
