Bar Association Officers.
Walnut Ridge, June 26.—The
next meeting of the Bar Associa
tion for the Eighth Chancery
district will be held in Heber
Springs in June 1914. There

the standard of the profession.
In the afternoon officers were
elected as follows:
J. B. Baker, Melbourne, pres
ident; W. E. Beloate, Walnut
Ridge, first vice president; Ly
man F. Reeder, re-elected secre
tary-treasurer. One vice presi
dent for each county in the dis
trict was elected as follows: W.
A. Jackson, Randolph county;
W. M. Ponder, Lawrence county;
S. A. Moore, Independence coun
ty; M. E. Vinson, Cleburne
county; W. C. Alley, Baxter

county.
The association adjourned
this afternoon but the visitors
attended a reception at the
home of S. C. Dowell tonight.
Doubts Power to Postpone
Little Rock, July 27.—On the
eve of a hearing of contests in
the bitter fight between the can
didates for the Democratic nom
nation for governor, the ques
tion has arisen, “Has the gover
nor of the state the power to
postpone the election?” This
surmise, the direct outgrowth of i
uje nnowieage mat snouicl any
contests be undecided and no
nominee certified 20 days prior
to the date for the election, July
23, is being discussed widely
throughout the state. Unless
the election can be postponed,
should the contests be undecid
ed, the Democratic party will go
to the polls with no certified
nominee and it will become the
duty of Democratic voters
to write in the names of their
choice, at best a precarious and
doubtful proceeding.
Brief and pointed was the re
ply of Acting Governor J. M. Fu
trell when asked concerning this
authority last night.
“I have given the question but i
little thought, but I doubt the ;
existence of any power to post-1
pone the special election,” said
the governor.
Entertain for House Party.
Misses Margaret Baker and
Pearl West entertained Thurs
day evening in honor of their

The West Home was attrac
tively arranged, especially in the
dining room, where a green and
white color scheme was prettily
carried out. In this room punch
was served by Misses Lucia Lof
tin and Laverta Hays.
The receiving line stood in the
parlor and was composed of the
guests of honor, also Mrs. Dutch
man West, Misses Margaret Ba
ker ar.d Pearl West.
During the evening different
features of entertainment were
enjoyed, some dancing, some
played cards, others sat in the
yard.
