Sometimes it doesn’t pay to

It is probably a mistake to

MCRAE’S WITHDRAWAL
SURPRISES EVERYBODY
As Result State Politics Warm
ing Up And Governor’s Race
Overshadows Other Contests
One thing has been discover
ed more uncertain than the
weather—and that is Arkansas
! politics.
Six months ago, and later, no
politician was in style unless he
was being “mentioned” forgov
ernor. The weeding out process
continued until the field was
narrowed down to a possible
seven or eight, and finally, as
late as last week, there seemed
no doubt whatever that four
names would be submitted to
the primary. But Dame Politics
proposed a more ^elusive
game even than that, and one
morning the Democracy awak
ened to find that it must choose
its next governor from three
candidates, former Congress
man Thos. C. McRae having
| withdrawn. It was the biggest
surprise of the whole campaign,
| and the first development since
! “Wes” Crockettannounced that
he would not make the race but
j had accepted the position of
secretary of the Rivers and Har
bors Committee of Congress.
The dope-sheets are beingre
vised in consequence, and the
strength of Col. McRae being
apportioned out among the:
three remaining candidates.
:Each claims the retirement of
the Prescott statesman will help
his cause. Dr. Brough and Mr.
iiiuuges nre especially optimis
tic, and are preparing to make
the next three months the most
vigorous campaign that has
been waged in years for the
gubernatorial nomination. Cam
paign headquarters are open
with staffs of managers in
charge, and while the chiefs are
! j “stumping i.he state,” the head
■ quarters are sowing the state
thick with literature. Judge L.
- C. Smith alone has not opened
. headquarters in Little Rock.de
5 j'claring that he does not see the
necessity of doing so, and that
“ he will conduct his campaign
from his office in DeWitt.
Now that the Jeff Davis ma
chine, for years one of the most
powerful factors in Arkansas
. politics, has been shattered,oth
er machines are in the process
of building. Whoever wins this
. contest will have among his
• friends who elected him the
-jelements of a machine that will
dominate the politics of the
■state for at least the next four
j years. A machine can be only
• as strong as its engineer. The
supporters of Mr. Brough, or
'Mr. Hodges, or Mr.Smith,which
ever wins, will become the nu
cleus about which the new ma
chine will be built up.
“Machine politics,” while too
often manipulated for the ad
vantage of the few, is not ne
jcessarilly malignant. Just as al
celebrated economist said there •
are “good and bad trusts,” so
are there bad political machines
machines seeking only indivi
dual gain, and good political
!machines that effectually or
ganize the beneficient elements
in society for the advancement
of the public welfare.
In the meantime, new align
ments are in order. No other
change is expected in the pres
ent line-up—that is, today, no
one knows what tomorrow or I
next week may produce.

MlQfpRE BEOS
HELD FOR MURDER
OF REPRESENTATIVE
Condemned Man's Brother Ac
cused of Killing Franklin
County Member Legislature.
Ozark. Jan. 10.—Ki Mc
Laughlin, brother of Neil Mc
Laughlin, who is in the Arkan
sas penitentiary, undersentence;
of death, today was arrested at
his home near Jethro, charged
with assassinating Allen Nixon,
member of the legislature from
Franklin county. McLaughlin
was chopping wood when offi
cers arrested him.
Nixon was shot from ambush
near his home last week as he
was riding to a barn on his farm
to sell some corn to a neighbor.
Deputy Sheriffs Sexton and
Pendergrass arrived here with
McLaughlin late this afternoon
and was placed in jail. He re
fused to talk.
From the first the officers
suspected McLauglin of having
assassinated Representative
Nixon. Several weeks ago the
two men had a desperate fight
at Jethro. Nixon was cut and
slightly wounded, but Mc
Laughlin was shot and wound
ed in the mouth. It was first re
ported that he was dead and
for many days his life was des
paired of. He eventually recov
ered, however.
Nixon was acquitted on his
plea of self-defense.
It is said the trouble between
the tw’o originated when Mc
Laughlin accused Representa
tive Nixon cf having aided in
securing the conviction of his
brother.
