A Little Rock tourist recently re.
turned from an extended trip through
the west. lie reports that the historic
gold field of Colorado is very quiet at
this time. The Cripple Greek dis
trict which has produced about half
billion dollars in gold since the orig
inal discovery, reaching S25,000,00O
year at its height, is now producing
less than half million year. Only
the larger mines are in operation. The
whole country is covered with dumps
of small abandoned mines. The cost
Of production has become so large that
smaller operators can not produce at
profit. Many believe, however, that
there are still great undiscovered veins
Of ore and that there will soon he a
revival of the gold industry.

Little Rock Letter
BY CLIO HARPER

Little Rock, Sept S--A 81 iIl;ed con
test for gavel hOnors in the 45th Gen
eral Assembly is already beginning to
materialize. There are numerous can
didates announced and mentioned for
the offices Of President of the Senate
and Speaker OF the House. The in.
tluence of GEcrnnr Tom j. Terral
will have a great bearing upon the
situation, but he has not made known
whom he will favC" for the Offices.
For President OF the Senate there
are already ave aSpirants. They are
Senators Dulaney, Bailey, Grabiel,
Milan and Mason. The candidates and
their friends are becoming quite ac-
tive, especially among the nominees.
Half of the membership of the Senate
consists in hold-overs and these are
undoubtedly already pledged.
At least ten per cent of the House
membership is in the race for Speaker.
Representatives Hill, Kinney, McKen.
non, Clerget, Alexander, Rankin,
Thane, Bolinger, Fades are avowed
candidates and Reece Caudle is being
urged to enter the race. Messrs.
Clerget, Rankin and Thane have been
previously members of the House, NJ.
though they were not in the 1923 ses-
sion, All the others were members of
the 44th General Assembly.
So far Ira NJ. Gurley of Carroll coun-
ty, who was elected Chief Clerk for
the last special session and who had
served efficiently as assistant, is the
only avOwed candidate for chief clerk.
II has been rumOred that George NJ.
Booth, who was recently defeated for
the nomination of Secretary of State,
may enter the race.
Ed X. Hicks, Secretary of the SEN
ate for several sessions, apparently
has sufficient number of pledges to
give him the position again. j. o.
Jones of Yell county is again candidate
for Assistant Secretary. He will prob
ably be opposed by Homer Freezing of
Boone county, now state printing clerk.

One of the most remarkable financial
records ever made by a city i'm Arkan-
sas is claimed by North Little Rock.
Only two or three years ago the city
owed about 100000 i'm bonded indebted
ness, was unable to pay its current
bills and had only a few hundred dol
lars in the treasury. A privilege tax
was levied several years ago to assist in
raising sufficient funds to meet mml-
cipal needs. Then radical change
was made I'm the city administration.
The entire personnel Of the city Off
cialS is alleged TO have been elected
by the Ku Klux Klan. officials began
practicing economy, collecting taxes
that had long been ignored and stop
ping up financial leaks wherever they
were found. Now the city is on cash
basis, all bills are paid promptly every
there, is sufficient money on
hand to meet the last of the bonds
when they fall due i'm few days and
there will he left surplus in the city
treasury of $4,000. The city will not
owe cent and automatically the pri-
vilege tax will be stopped. 1t is be
leved that this is the only instance in
the state where an administration has
actually reduced taxes apd paid off
every cent of debt.

- Official records show that on
JMe 25, 1923, the Colorado River
discharge at Yuma, was 34,400 felt.
This shows that even the Colorado
River is keenly affected by the dry
season just experienced and that
this year S flow is less than one third
what it was last year at this time.
However, irrigation officials are
agreed that there is no cause for
alarm il the irrigation waters are
used Awith judicious care and the
water conserved to the best poss-
ible advantage. This means that
every farmer should guard against
wasting water-in the manner that
has characterized the slipshod meth
DDS of irrigation on the part of
many farmers. Through negligence
they flood the roads, not only caus-
ing a woeful waste of water, but OBJ
