The child labor law, and other
acts the labor organizations desire
to initiate, are now being circulat
ed in all sections of the State, in
order to secure the required num

Prospects for the present Sena

of fire, like campaigns of old, are
exceedingly bright. Friends of
Senator James P. Clarke are pre
paring to hold an old time torch
light procession in Little Rock on
that night, with a speech from
their candidate. Unless Judge Kir
by changes his campaign plans and
decides to speak elsewhere, both
candidates will be in action in Lit
tle Rock on the night before elec
tion, and a last effort will be made
to have them speak jointly.

WHERE CHARACTER
COUNTS BOTH WAYS
W. A. Oldfield has the strength
of two characters to help him in
his race.
The one is the noble character
he has displayed since he has been
in congress. The other is the
character of the men who are so
bitterly opposing his re-election.
