day, says the Little Rock Gazette.
Considerable comment has been ex-
cited about the state house bv the
fact that, although the governor mas
been absent from the state during the
greater part OF the week there has been
no one in Little Rock to discharge
the duties of the office, in case ne.es-
sity should arise. During forme. ab-
sences from the state the governors s
Office has been left in charge nf Pri.
vate Secretary Charles jacobson. bu
even the latter has been in St Louis
during the past week.
Senator o. N. Killough of Cross
county was elected president pro ,cn.
OF the senate at the adjournment Of
that body two years ago. This Office
carries with it the duties of lie'uenart
governor and the law provides that
during the absence of the governor
from the state the duties of the Office
shall devolve upon the president pro
tenn. of the senate. but Senator Kill
Tough has never exercised the prerog.
ative given him under the law. The
ante-primary hostility of Senator K:'.
lough to Gov. Davis is accepted as the
explanation of this peculiar condition
of circumstances. 1t Is stated by
those who have been connected with
the state government for years that
there has probably never been an
administration. previous to the present
one in which the president of the
senate was not called upon at some
time to perform the duties Of governor.

The scrimmase development will be
the most seriously affected by the

We have now to consider briefly the
distinguishing characteristics OF each
OF these types before going on to note
the steps Of development through
which the modern book was evolved.
First let Us give attention at the papy-
rus roll OF the Egyptians. As has been
said, this type Of book was employed
In Egypt from the earliest day OF the
historical period. As is well known,
payprus is species OF primitive paper
1.-The word paper was made
OF strips 81 the papyrus plant placed
together TO form two thin layers. the
fbers OF one crossing those Of the
other and the whole made into a thin,
firm sheet with the aid OF glue and
mechanical pressure. The strips OF
papyrus' were usually from to IA
inches in width, and from a few feet
to several yards in length. This scroll |
was not used, as might perhaps have
been expected. for the insertion OF a |
single continuous column Of writing.
A moments consideration viii make
II clear that such method would have
created difficulties, both for the scribe
and for the reader. therefore the much
more convenient method was adopted
OF writing lines few inches In length,
so placed as to form transverse coll

The law for justices courts regarding change of venue in civil cases Is very brief and plain stating that upon the filing of an affidavit the case must be sent to the nearest justice of the peace. Justice Robertson read the af- fdlvit and the motion for the change and said that, he had given that law greaG deal of study. He admitted it's existence but he said that he had convinced' himself that it did not rep resent the purpose Of the legislature which passed it. Anyhow he believed 1t was 8 misprilfl. Therefore he would deny the motion for a change.
 The defense took no further part in the proceedings and judgment WAS rendered against the defendant for $50 aud an execution was ordered. The sheriif's office levied on certain prop erty belonging to bhe defendant, but did not take actual possession of it..
 In the meantime in the absence of Judge Kent application was made to Judge Sloan Of Prescott for an order restraining the sheriff from proceed ing with the seizure and sale of the property. it being represented that the proceedings before Justice Robertson were void. A telegram was received on Monday saying that the order hal been issued and it was expected that il would be received yesterday.

THE ARLINGTON DITCH
The Board of Equalization Decides
 That l. Must be Taxed.

Judge Kibbey appeared before the board of equalization yesterday rep resenting the stockholders of the Ar lington Canal company to protest against the assesmept of that water way for purposes of taxation. District Attorney Baker was present to de- fend the course of the assessor who had placed a valuation of $6,OOO on the canal. The stockholders relied upon the following clause of paragraph 3,S54 of the revised statutes for the as- sessment of ditches and other i'm provements of semi public character: Provided, That private irrigating ditches, wholly owned by the one us- ing the water supplied thereby on their own lands shall be exempt from tax atioa, except in so far as the recla- nation of said land from its arid state shall enhance it's value"
 The stockholders claim that the canal is a private ditch. That it was constructed for the bringing of water upon the lands of the promoters and upon no other lands. That for con- venience in the management of the canal it was decided to incorporate and that was done in 1899. There are twenty nine shares of stock, one for each quarter section of land. It is claimed that the water represented by each share of stock is appurtenant to the land of the owners of the share; that is to the land owned at the time Of the formation of the company. That the ditch is in all respects a private ditch and that those who derive water rom u are already taxed upon the en- hanced value of their properties.
 lt was not the opinion of the dis trict attorney that the corporation could avail iself of the provision for the exemption of d private ditch: that this was not the kind of a ditch that was described in the foregoing clause. The board accordingly decided to let the assessment stand.
