Declares Best Results Can Be Secured
if Public Highways Are Built
by Contract.
Stephen Brundidge has an ambition
to be the flood Roads tlovernor” of
Arkansas. He has some radical ideas
about the nianuer in which roads
should he built in a county, and is
freely airing them before large audi
ences daily. From the way the people
whom Col Brundidge addresses ap
plaud his utterances, it is evidept
that good road building is a popular
’heme in Arkansas, and that the peo
ple endorse th • good roads candidate
for governor.
I ant heartily in favor of federal
aid for interstate highways," staled
f ol. Brundidge In a speech delivered a'
Arkadelphia, "but I am heartily in fa
vor of good roads everywhere, and
under almost any condition.
"i believe the time lias come in Ark
ansas. it we are to bloom an-i -o. .-or j
like tiie rose, if we would make ou:
farms and homes what 'hey ought t ,
he. that we must h:r ■ good roads and
the proper transpr."■■'ion facilities.
"The present rcr law of Arkansas
is isadequate. I delivered an address
before the legislature two years ag
in which i advocated a change in th 1
road laws of Arkansas.
“In the good county of White, since
our people have been voting a road
tax upon themselves, we have spent
upon the public roads of the count
$200,000 thus raised by taxation, and
we have not six miles of good road in
the entire county.
“I know of no reason why the peo
pie of this state, interested in this
subject, should not arouse themselves
to the importance of devising a sys
tem by which the money raised by
road taxation may be expended bene
ficially. The county judg-' can let
contracts for the erection of bridges
to the lowest bidder—why not use *h
same system for the building of public
roads? If you build your public roads
by contract, let to the lowest bidder,
who gives surety for the faithful per
formance of the work, you get value
received for ever dollar you spend.
Under the old system you are lucky to
have as much as you have already re
ceived.”
OPPOSES SPECIAL ACTS
Col. Brundidge Declares He Will Stop
Abuse ff Elected Governor.
“One of the greatest abuses of legis
lation is the matter of special acts."
declares Col. Stephen Brundidge. -an
didate for governor. “It is a curse and
blight that spreads over the entire
state, and when I am your governor I
will attempt to stop it. The general
acta of the legislature can be bound
in a volume no larger than' my hand.
It. requires a volume of 1,400 pages for
the special acta. We have too many,
law#; There la not a ’cltisen of the'
atate not a lawyer, and - few lawyers
at that, who can, tell you what the law
is today. The beat and the happiest
people in the world are those who are
the least governed. Doubtless an
emergency will arise at some time,
and if it does, then a special act will
be permitted to go through, but when
I am your governor, and the legisla
ture devotes so much of its time to
local legislation, and goes the gait
it has been going for the past two
years, I will go down in history as
the greatest vetoing governor Arkan
sas has ever had.”
tory accounts for but one other such
man and that was Absolum, who
_j n,o tn the jrale” and
stole the hearts of the people of Israel
from David, Ills father.
You seem to devote a great deal of
your space lately to disparage Mr.
Brundidge in the interest of his oppon
ent. I don’t know just how many se
eret societies Mr. Bruididge belongs to
if any. I have the honor and good for
tune to be a member of all those you
mention, and some others. It is my
understanding that in this jurisdiction
these societies are non-political, and
*hat being otherwise acceptable, men
can gain admission, be their politics
what" they may, hence I assume you
do not belong to any of the societies
you mention, except it may be the
one of which I know nothing.
As to your candidate. Judge Hays, I
know nothing whatever, and don t
want to be understood as writing in
disparagement of his candidac). Ir.
fact I hope he may be as able and
honorable man as Mr. Brundidge for
it is desirable that only such men
should be elected governor of this state.
In regard to your quotation that
“it would be well for the people to in
vestigate Mr. Brundidge's past," will
say I think so. too. I quite agree
upon that proposition. It would be
well for them to investigate both h;s
private and public life fully and hor
oughly. They would then have the
gratifying assurance that in support
ing him they would elect a man with
out a spot or blemish on his private or
public character. Geo. Sibly.

Military Men Seek Device* That Will

Noise of battle has always been con

of a gunpowder weapon is measured
by its killing capacity The more
noise it makes the fewer if kills The
booming battery is like the rattle
snake Audibly it warns of its pres

strikes silently claims the most vic

to make gnns less noisy and more
useful in their specific field of activ
ity The quite noiseless gun would
be more desirable than the wholly
smokeless powder from the stand
point of the warrior Now comes the
complaint that tho military aeroplane
Is deprived of much of its usefulness
because of the tremendous noise of
Its whirring propellers. At night, when
th4 flyers dart about above the dark

to fly high to dodge bullets, at night
they migst woop down low enough
to gain accurate information wore It
not for the inevitable noise. There

much more is it to he sought in hum

DANGEROUS ONLY IN PANIC
Hippopotami Will Not Attack Mar
Unless Impelled by Unreason
ing and Blind Fear.
Tiie hippopotamus which attackec
Sir John Kirk and Livingstone was
no doubt, a "bachelor.” Speaking o
the hippopotami of the Chobe, Liv
lngstone says that, "as certain elder
ly males are expelled from the herd
they become soured in their temper
and so misanthropic as to attacl
every canoe that comes near them
The herd is never dangerous excep
when a canoe passes Into the mlds
of it when all are asleep, and some o
them may strike the canoe in terror
As a rule, these animals flee the ap
proach of man. The “solitaires,” how
ever, frequent certain localities wel
known to the inhabitants on t.hi
banks, and, like the rogue elephants
are extremely dangerous.” Living
stone learnt that, when attacked b:
one, you should dive to the bottoE
and keep there a few seconds, sine
the hippo soon moves off If he find
nobody on the surface.

Cardui, the woman’s tonic, has done me
