this month the Arkansas Legislature
passed a bill appropriating $3.50 for
painting OF Jefferson Davis, and in
strueted the sergeant-at-arms to hang
1t over the speakers chair. place
formerly occupied by a portrait of

King. OF Stone county, introduced the
following resolution relative to the pic
ture:
BE II resolved by the house OF rep
resentatives OF the state OF Arkansas,
That Hon. jefferson Davis picture be
removed from where 1t now hangs and
placed to the left OF the speakers stand,
where General George Washington's
picture now hangs. and that General
Washington's picture be placed over
the speakers stand. where Jefferson
Davis picture now hangs"
The house by an overwhelmingly ma
jority rejected the resolution.
Mfr, King says he was In the Confed-

protection. He said so. All his friends
said so. They all. were perfectly aware
that vote for Mckinley was vote
for a protective tariff. There were
