POLITICAL LINE-UP
IS NOW COMPLETE
Elimination Stage Passed and
No More Withdrawals or En
tries Expected State Politics
The year 1916, a political
year all the way up the line,has
opened in Arkansas with the
lines pretty well drawn. The
cards are practically complete,
and at this late day it is very
improbable that any other can
didates will appear for any
state office.Never before in the
history of the state has there
been more frying-out, back-fill
ing, pipe-laying, fence-fixing,
side-stepping, than there has
been in Arkansas since promi
nent citizens first got the habit
of being “mentioned for gov
ernor’’ more than a year ago.
But now the indications are
that they have been pretty well
weeded out, and that the iden
tity of the next governor lies
among four men who are mak
ing a thorough campaign of the
state, presenting their claims to
the pepole. There will be no
further withdrawals, or else
the dope-sheets are all wrong.
And the same is true of the oth
er state offices. While certain
good citizens have had feelers
out for some of the offices, the
fact that they have not yet an
nounced seems conclusive that
they have not received that en
couragement which they con
sider sufficient support to war
rant an entry at this late date.
As it appears now—and this
is likely the ticket that will go
before the people on March 29
—the line-up is as follows:
For Governor—Earle W.
Hodges, T. C. McRae, C. H.
Brough, L. C. Smith.
For Secretary of State—T. J.
Terral, Jim Higgins, V. A. Bee
son. ,
For State Treasurer—R. G.
McDaniels.
For Auditor ofState—Hogan
Oliver, M. F. Dickinson.
F o r A gri c u 11 u ra 1C o m m i ssi o n -
er—John H. Page.
For Attorney general—Lew
is Rhoton. John D. Arbuckle.
For Superintendent of Public
.Instruction—J. L. Bond, J. W.
i Kuykendall.
For Land Commissioner—W.
B. Owen.
For Associate Justice—Car
rol D. Wood.
There are seven candidates
for Railroad Commissioner in
the Southern District. W. G.
Brasher of Yell and OscarWinn
of Pulaski are candidates from
the Northwestern District, and
Tom Wood is unopposed from
the Northeastern district.
There are some spirited con
tests for Congress, but Cara
way in the First, Tillman in the
Third. Wingo in the Fourth,and
Jacoway in the Fifth are unop
posed. In the Second district A.
G. Gray is attempting to wrest
the nomination from Congress
man Oldfield. In the Sixth,
Speaker L. E. Sawyer of the last
Arkansas House, and T. Havis
Nixon are opposing S. M. Tay
lor. Probably the hardest fight
of all is being waged in the
Seventh, where W. S. Goodwin
seeks a renomination, and isop
posed by W. F. McKnight, R.
S. Warnock and State Senator
J. (). A. Bush. Some of the* cam
paigning in this district has al
ready reached the personally
vitriolic stage, with the pros
pect of becoming more bitter.
All efforts to resuscitate the
old Jeff Davis machine have
proven futile. As the old farm
er remarked about the giraffe
in the circus, “There ain’t no
such animal.” The machine has
been completely disintegrated.

MRS. S. A. DRENNEN DEAD
The entire community was
shocked when it wasannounced
that Mrs. S. A.Drennen died
at about lo'clock last Saturday
at the home of her parents, Mr.
anti Mrs. D. W. Crow.
She had been sick from the
birth of her baby about ten
days previously, but had im
proved nicely and was thought
to be almost well and entirely
out of danger. She had improv
ed so nicely that Dr. Drennen
had returned to Rush, where he
moved recently, to resume his
practice.
Mrs. Drennen grew worse on
Friday and a message was sent
Dr. Drennen, but owing to the
isolated conditions surrounding
Rush the message did not reach
him until after her death.
A little more than two yearsj
ago she was married to Dr.
Drennen upon the occasion of
his graduation from the Univer
sity Medical College in Little
Rock, the wedding takingplace
in that city immediately follow
ing his graduation.
1'here has possibly not been
a more touching incident in
Newark in many years than the
death of Mrs. Drennen, and
nothing but the thought of the
A11-wise hand that removed her
can reconcile those who are so
sadly bereaved. While she has
gone from the scenes, the con
ilicts, the sorrows and the
pleasures of life, she will still
live in the hearts of those who
knew her best. She was a kind
and loving daughter and a de
voted wife, and it was in her 1
home that her true worth was
most conspicuous. Her devotion
to the family circle had no limit.
It is sad indeed to see one so
well equipped for life taken so
suddenly.
A most beautiful andimpres- i
sive funeral service was con
ducted at the family residence
by Rev. J. L.Brown at 1:30 b
Monday afternoon after which
the remains were laid to rest is
Blue Springs cemetery.
The deceased is survived by
her husband and two-weeks-old
baby daughter, her parents,Mr.
and Mrs. [). W. Crow, two
brothers, Porter and Paul, and
two sisters, Mrs. E. R. Moore
of this place and Mrs. M. C.
Magness of Oak Grove, La.
