Indications point to the nomi
nation of Judge Jno. I. Worthing
ton of Harrison as the Republi
can nominee for governor of Ar
kansas. _
Tomorrow (Saturday) the an
jnun] school meetings will be Held
in the various districts through
out the county. These are very
important elections and every vo
ter should attend.
Lot’s see: didn’t we hear some
high state official make the state
ment some five or six months ago
that Tom Cox, the notorious lob-1
byist, would be wearing stripes in
loss than sixty days?
..
Secretary of the Interior Hitch
cock will assist the state authori
ties in suppressing gambling at
Hot Springs. It seems that there
is no joke, after all, about the lid
going on the Vapor City.
The head of the department of
geology in the University of Chi
cago expresses the opinion that
this earth will be habitable for
100,000,000 years. About as well
make that sort of guess as any
other kind, for all predictions as
to the future are only guess work
any way. __
Every voter should read Prof.
J. H. Hinemon’s speech on the
proposed McFerrin amendment,
published on the sixth page of to
day’s paper. Arkansas needs this
amendment and The Journal hopes
to see it adopted by an over
whelming majority at the Sep
tember election.
TO STOP FUTURE-SELLING.
Representative Haflin of Ala
bama Inis introduced a bill in con
gress making it a misdemeanor
for any person to keep an estab
lishment for the purpose of deal
ing in cotton futures. It provides I
that any person or persons who
buy or sell cotton for the purpose
of speculating under the plan
commonly known as cotton futures
shall be deemed guilty of keeping
and running a gambling house and
shall be fined not less than $5,000 j
and also shall be imprisoned for a
period of 10 years.
