A Foolish Man.

There was once a man who thought
what a dreadful thing it would be if
he were blind, and closed his eyes
as he walked along to see how it
would be. In this way he walked
over a purse of gold which another
man picked up, There are people

The Rain a General One.

From parties coming in on the
many trains from the north, we
learn the rain we have had today,
was general over Arkansas and Ten
nessee. One of our informants said;
when I left Memphis, the clouds
we're banked and the thunder was
playing a tattoo, while the lightning
furnished the pyrotechnics 70. the
scene" 1t had not rained he said,
when he left Memphis, but the rain
fell soon afterwards; the train he
was on encountered, told him plainly
that Memphis and vicinity had been
raiued on pretty thoroughly. We
also gather from exchanges and
train men, that Texas has had its
share of the rain, and that the
corn crop is made beyond doubt.
Let us give thanks.

At the present time one per cent

other ninety-nine per cent of the

do this in this free country? The
answer is easy-by purchasing leg

blame for this horrible condition OF
affairs? The answer is also easy
no one but the people, who have the

Summer Comfort.

There is constant demand for
gasoline stoves. Why? Because
the new gasoline stoves work per-
fectly, keep the kithen cool and
pleasant, and do away with the
bother of having wood and kindling
around, But the chief reason is
on account of the cheapness Of
gasoline, as compared with other
fuel for cooking purposes.
by actual test it has been found
that four gallons Of gasoline will 90

COUNTY UNIFORMITY.
Question Decided Upon Majority Of
All Votes Cast For and Against
Uniformity

Attoruey-Geueral Davis has Civ
en- the following construction of the
county uniformity text book law
placed by the last legislature
First, as to the following: THE
act provides that the county court
at its regular meeting for levying
taxes, shall ascertain whether a
majority of all the votes cast at
that election in the county be for
county uniformity" Does this
mean a majority of all the votes
cast in all the districts, or major
iry of all votes cast upon the ques-
tion.
This question is one which has
given rise to a diversity of opinion,
but the weight of authority seems
to be that where a statute re-
quires a question to be decided by
the votes of a majority of the vo'
ters of a county this does not re-
quire that a majority of all persons
in the county entitled to vote shall
vote afirmatively, but olly that
the result shall be decided by the
majority Of the votes cast.
See Vance ct al and Futrell ct al
VS. Austrell, 45 Ark, 400, aud au-
thorities cited Hereunder.
Ia view of the above authorities
and by analogy I am of the opinion
that the expression under construc-
tion meaus, not a majority of all
the votes cast at the election, but
majority of all the votes cast for
and against county uniformity.
To hold otherwise would be count
lug those who, either through in
adyertenCe or ignorance, 1dlI1d 10
vote upon the subject as against
the question, presumption which
the law does 1ot warrant, but ac-
cording to the above decision the
court holds that those who do uot
vote upon the question acquisece
in the majority.
In answer to your second queS-
tion, it is my opinion that section
III of the act means in counties
where the vote is against county
uniformity the same books in use
now shall continue so for the period
of one year if the publishers there
of will furnish them at the same
price the books are furnished coun-
ties who adopt the uniformity sys-
