SOLID IN ARKANSAS

Little Rock, Ark, Nov. 7.:----Arkan'
sas will return the usual solid demo
cratic vote to the house of representa-,
tives. Three seats were contested anC
scattering returns at 10 o'clock vir.
tually assured democratic victories IL
each case.
Scattered returns early Tuesday
night indicated possibly one of the
lightest votes in the history of the
state. Ideal weather conditions
throughout the state caused many te
believe that the vote in three districts
in which there were contests would be
in excess of previous expectations on
this account
In the Third district, where no can
didates were certified to oppose John
Y. Tillman, democratic nominee, the
voters apparently are writing in the
name of J. Frank Carleton, republican
and NJ. A. Rude, independent, on the
ticket. This, according to adyices here,
is legal in Arkansas.
