CLARKE DIES: SICK FOUR DAYS Arkansan Noted in Public Life for His Independence Little Rock, Ark., Oct. 2.—United States Senator James P. Clarke died at his home here yesterday afternoon. He was taken ill suddenly with acute indigestion in his office Wednesday afternoon and Saturday was stricken with paralysis, since when he had been unconscious. He is survived by his wife, two daughters, Mrs. Joseph W. House, Jr., and Mrs. Robert Wil- liams, and one son, James P.'Clarke. ociate Justice W. F. Kirby, who opposed him in the primaries two vears ago, will likely be appointed to succeed him, as the associate justice and Governor Hays are close political {riends. A meeting of the democratic state central committee will be called at once to name a candidate as his per- manent successor, who must be elect- ed in November. The nomination must be made at once as, under the law, the date for certifying all nom- inations in this state expires on Sat- urday next. Senator Clarke’s action when the eight-hour railroad hill was passed brought him into great prominence. He was in the chair, and was one of the two democratic senators to re- fuse to sign it. When it was pre- sented to him for his signature, he appointed Senator Hughes of New Jersey as acting president pro tem- pore, and Senator Hughes signed it as the presiding officer of the senate. Senator Clarke’s stand against the eight-hour bill was typical of an in- dependence that characterized his at- titude during all the thirteen years of his senatorial career. Many times he was the leader in opposition to measures proposed by his party., The climax of his independence | was reached when he led the democratic objectors against the Ship Pur¢hase bill. His action gave new life tp the republican filibuster, and made/ the passage of the bill impossible. Dhring the last session, when the bilj was reintroduced, with the govermment ownership and operation featuges to which he objected revised and odi- fied, he gave to it his support. Again during the last session) Sen- ator Clarke. surprised his colleagues when he proposed the amendml‘ent to the Philippine bill which would have given absolute independence tp the islands at the end of four yearfs. The administration indorsed his mend- ment and it was adopted by tie sen- ate, the house, however, refuging to accept it.

Dt ofs than nepypeiition *ou him - was based on his refusal to conform to the policy of the administration during the the previous session. }lis oppon- ents objected to him personally, de- claring he was arbitrary anc dicta- torial, and another element >f the opposition said he was elevated to that place in the last congress for the purdose of aiding him in his race for re-election to the senate. His action on the Ship Purchase bill vas also held against him. HoweveF, on Dec. 3, 1915, the final ballot shoved 28 votes for Senator Clarke anc 23 for Senator Pomerene of OChio. He was born in Yazoo, Mss., and was a son of the late Walte' Clarke and Mrs. Ellen White Clarks:. After receiving his early education in the public schools and academies of his native state, Senator Clarke attended the University of Virginia, frem which he was graduated in 1878, with- the degree of Bachelor of Laws. During the same vear he was admitted to the bar and went to Arkansts, where he started practice in Helna. Immediately plunging intc politics, MRS, MAY’S LETTER fo WOMEN More Proof that Lydia E.

At first he lost, but finally in 1886 he won ard was elected to represent his county in the legislature. Two years later he v elected to the state senate, of which he was elected president in 1891. He secured the enactment of a law which brought about the coi- lection of more than $400,000 back taxes from various railroads. After s his term state senator, Senator Clarke announced himself as candidate for attorney general of Arkansas and he was elected. His race for governor followed and again he was elected with little opposition. His term as gqvernor ended in 184 and he refused the renomination, 2 ncing himself candidate far States Senator to James K. Jones, The contest was to be decided at the primaries, and after several count had votc overwhelmingly ¢ t him, Senator Clarke withdrew, an- nouncing he would be candidate at the expiration of Senator Jones’ next term. He began organizing his forces and had himself appointed in 1900 a member of the Democratic National Committee. He was a prominent delegate at the national convention in Kansas City, and after his return spent the next two years keeping his organization in line and preparing for the battle he would come in 1902, con- as as knew Expressed His Own Views. The campaign in that resulted in his being United States senate, most a imonious Arkansas At vear, which sent to the was one of the ever fought in the election Senator | Clarke gained more than two-thirds of the counties. Years after Senator Clarke and former Senator Jeff Davis, now dead, became estranged. This was emp ed 'when Davis was sent to Washir n as senator from Ark- ansas in It is customary for the senlor nator - to introduce the new one from his state, and this Sen- ator Clarke refused to do. The late Senator Money of Mississippi per- formed the ceremoly and escorted Senator Davis to the vice president’s desk and made the mtroduction same situation when John N. Heiskell appointed to succeed Senator Davis. Heiskell's newspaper had always been opposed to Senator | Clarke, and Senator John Sharp Wil- liams introduced the new senator. Senator Clarke was a man of impetu ous temperament and nev hesitated to express his disapproval of either arose was| | vears succeea | Ths . men or measures. In his younger days he sought out a member of the Arkansas legislature, who had im- pugned some of his actions, in the lobby of a Little Rock hotel, to de- liberatel) pit in his face and then drew a pistol when his fellow leg lator signified his intention of resent- ing his attack. Such evidences of his quick temper, however, rather aug mented his prestige, and for many vears Senator Clarke was rather a hero to a certain majority of the Arkansas democracy. To this majoc- ity he was affectionately known as “Old Cotton Top,” owing to his hair, which became gray early in life. Senator Clarke acted for several as chairman of the important committee on commerce and wak the ranking democratic member of the foreign relations committee and the committee on military affair: In 1883 he married Mis M.
