Abstract

The article focuses on the fear prevailing in a community in Morrilton, Conway County, Arkansas. Politics has played a major role in the history of Conway County, but one could hardly call it political action. Some countries in Arkansas have two factions of the Democratic Party; some even have a few Republicans to contend with at election title. Not so in Conway County, just one party, just one faction, just one machine. The effort has been stifling. Every time the census is taken, fewer people are found to be living here. Industry seems disinclined to move in. There's nothing wrong with the general area, a town just east of Morrilton has nearly tripled in size in the last twenty year, one to the west has doubled.
