1COX PREPARING CAMPAIGN TOUR Dayton, Ohio, August 9.?Preparations for his speech making tour for the Presidency kept Governor Cox busily engaged today while the Democratic vice presidential nominee, Franklin D. Roosevelt, was being formally notified at Hyde Park, New York. The Governor had hoped to attend the Roosevelt ceremony but was detained here with his owfi affairs of the Democratic touring campaign and I - he also desired Mr. Roosevelt to have the center of the Democratic stage today. Over Sunday mails and the telegraph continued their message of congratulation to Governor Cox, praising his declaration of policies in his acceptance address of Saturday and enrolling under the Cox-Roosevelt standad. Most of his mail was not being handled by the Governor personally. Its volume forced him to delegate much of his correspondence, while he worked to clean up unfinished affairs before leaving here next Wednesday on travels expected to continue until November. J The first address of the Governor next Thursday at Camp Perry, Ohio, ill nresentino- th? "Onv??rn?\m I a large silver handworked cup?for rifle competition is expected to deal - with the league of nations and also > rehabitation of ex-service men. In other addresses of his August itinerary, Governor Cox will elaborate, '"his advisers state, on subjects of particular interest to his audiences, like publicity and campaign contributions to the Indiana Editprs at South Bend, Ind., affairs of interest to miners in his Pittsburg speech and agricultural matters to the farm organizations at Columbus, Ohio, September2. That Governor Cox and Senator Harding, his Republican opponent, soon will be in the thick of exchanges from their respective forums also is expected by the Democratic candidate's managers. It was reported that a few days in August were held open for future bookings for addresses by the Governor to give rebuttal to comment from Senator Harding and the ' Republican camp on the Govenor's declarations in his acceptance speech and future addresses. Governor Cox tomorrow will go early to Carrmonte, a village near Trails End, his home, to cast his vote in the Ohio Democratic Primary. PREMIERS MEET IN CONFERENCE Hythe, Eng., August 9.?When Premiers Millerand, of France and Lloyd George, of England met again this morning in continuation of their conference here over the Russo-Polish situatio they had before them the detailed report of Marshal Foch and Field Marshal Wilson dealing with the extent of military, naval and economic assistance which France and England can give immediately to Poland. Having decided" that actual war shall not be waged on Russia, the Premiers were confronted with a most difficult problem. It is known they are inclined to give Poland every aid within the limit of this decision. In both French and British circles here, however, the word "defensive" is emphasized in connection with all proposed plans, and it is pointed out that France and Great Britain wish it distinctly understood that they are not contemplating offensive measures against Russia. Marshal Foch and Field Marshal Wilson, with their experts, worked until a late hour last night framing thei rreport. The conference considering their report today was expected to last until early afternoon. Premier Millerand planned to return to Paris nt 2:30 p. m., while Premier Lloyd George expected to be in London later in the day. The optimism of the British, which was manifested before the conference began yesterday, had given away to a feeling of extreme uneasiness, and the it was rported that the British Premier himself was greatly disturbed over the new developments in the Russo- Polish situation.

ELECTIONS IN ARKANSAS TOMORROW L/ittle Rock, Ark., August 9.?The Democratic primary to be hel din Arkansas tomorrow promises to be one of the most interestin and hard fought elections in the history of the state. There is a bitter contest for the United States senatorship, there are nine candidiates for governor, there are contests for representatives in four of the seven congressional districts, nearly all of the state offices are being fought for and in every county there are further contests for local offices. Only Democrats will be voted for in this primary and in this state the Democratic nomination is virtually equivalent to election. The struggle for the nomination of United States senator between Senator William F. Kirby and Congressman T. H. Caraway has developed into one of the most acrimonious affairs in the history of Arkansas politics. Each candidate has been unsparing in his criticism of the others official record. Senator Kirby is filling out the term for which the late Senator James P. Clark originally was nominated. Senator Clark defeated Mr. Kirby in the state primary six years ago but died before the general election was held. His death occurred so shortly before the date of the general election that there was not time to hold another primary so the Democratic Stote Cen tral Committee nominated Mr. Kirby as the party candidate. The Democratic nominee for governor, whoever he is, will have three opponents in the general election next November. These already have been nominated. Wallace Townsend, of Little Rock is the regular Republican nominee, J. H. Blount, a negro Republican educator of Helena will appear on the ballot as the negro Republican nominee and the Socialists have nominated Sam W. Buesler of Springdale. There are nine aspirants for the governorship to succeed Charles Hillman Brough who is retiring from public life after two terms as governor. They are as follows: ex-Congressman J. C. Floyd, of Yellville; ex-Congressman T. C. McRae, of Prescott; Circuit Judge George R- Haynie, of Prescott; John R- Rififgs, representative in the state legislature, Hot Springs; Smead Powell, Camden; Henry Stroupe, former colonel of the old Second Arkansas Regiment, Paris; Thomas J. Terral, secretary of state, Magnolia; Harrp Walsh, Little Rock and the Rev. Frank M. Wells, Camden. There are five candidates for the nomination for congressman from the First District, the seat now held by Congressman Caraway. These five are: E. E. Alexander, H. B. Horne, R. E. L. Johnson, W J Driver, J. W. Simmons. ?.VI* | In the Second district, Congressman W. A. Oldfield' is opposed by H. A. Northcutt and W. A. Hodges. In the Third District Congressman John N. Tillman is unopposed as are Congressman Otis. T. Wingo in the Fourth and H. M. Jacoway in the Fifth. In the Sixth District, Congressman Samuel Taylor is opposed by L. T. Sawyer and in the Seventh District Congressman W. S. Goodwin is opposed by Tillman B. Parks, Adolph Felsenthal and John j Carter.

Stenographer ExtraordinaryTwo members of the bar were trying a replevin suit In the superior court recently and In the course of the trial got Into a sharp wrangle?as lawyers sometimes do?over the admission of a certain piece of evidence. The wrangle resolved Itself Into an oral battle In which both lawyers tried to talk at once. They spoke In loud tones and at a rapid-fire gait. When the smoke had Cleared away and the case was over they were quite surprised to learn that the court stenographer had been able to get down In his book every word they had said, despite the faot they were both talking at the same time.
