 Every woman who neglects the care of her health at this time in- yites disease and pain.

 Such warning symp- toms as sense of suffo- cation, hot flashes, head aches, backaches. dread of impending evil, timid- ity, sounds in the ears, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities, constipa- ton, variable appetite, weakness, inquietude, and dizzine ss, are promptly needed by in telligent women who are approaching the period

THEY WOULD LIKE
TO Be ANNEXED
Residents of Valley lust South of

Become Part of the

Residents of that part of the valley
between the limits on the south and
the southern edge of Peachey Addition
and between the Columbia river and
Miller street have placed in circula.
tion petition asking for special
election to vote on the question of tax.

the voters at the last municipal elec-
ion be presented to the city council,
was any definite step taken toward at
tanning the end desired. TIE territory
in question is abou one quarter of
mile long, contains at present between
I50 and 200 residents and is growing at
a more rapid rate than any other SEQ
ton of town or valley. The new
bridge being built across the Columbia
will come within the confines of the
described territory. The reason which
prompts those now outside the city in
their effort to get in, is the incI easing
need of sidewalks and the desire TO get
water at the city rs.tes, whereas sthey
are now paying rate 30 per cent of
that which prevails within the city
limits Moreover, bv decision OF the
supreme court. recently handed down,
the city is liable to prosecution for
the sale of water on tside the city and
the fear of ultimately losing their
water supply altogether has lent q
touch of nsivette to THEN effort to get
within the jurisdiction of the city.
The petition y ill be presented to the
coupcil at an early date.
AS 1872 votes were cast at the last
municipal election aud the signatures
Of 20 per cent of these, or 26 are re
quired to get the matter before the
council there is little doubt that a
special election will be called for the
purpose Of voting oa the question.
Should the election result favorably to
the petitioners. another election will
be held in the territory named IN the
petition for the purposes of learning
their wishes in regard to the annexa.

poration however, are nearly all of
the same mind so the result of the
second election would be Ioregone

The section described in the petit
tion retains within its boundaries some
of the best residence and farm pro-
perty in the valley, among which mey
be mentioned Peachy Addition, Bel

formerly belonging to the far associa-

the hope of checking the course of the
boat, but 1T was without avail and she
swept down the river through the
rapids, the anchors only serving to
hold the bow of the boat upstream.

any manner do away with the poll tax, as some seem to think The constitution of 1874 provides for a po'l-tax of SI.oo upon every male inhabitant over 2I years of age for the maintenance of schools, and must be paid now as before. The ruling of the supreme court only eliminates the producing of poll tax receipt as necessary qualified tion of a legal voter.-Johnson County Hlrald.
 Begging your pardon, Brother Ward, 1t is not a simple fact that the supreme court has declared the poll-tax amendment not legally passed. Many people, including Attorney ey-General Rogers, having expressed the opinion that this amendment is not valid, but 1t will remain ill effect until the supreme court declares that it is not a part of the constitution.

Under flaming headlines the State Republican of last week exul- tantly publishes the assertion: POLL TAX RECEIPT NO LONGER NEEDED! Citizens Otherwise Qualified May Vote Without Presenting Receipt at the Polls. <" The Republican bases this assertion upon the recently de livered opinion of Attorney Gener- al Rogers to the effect that consti- tutional .amendment No. ?, was not legally adopted, which opinion it states, Twill be regarded as the law of the state until the supreme court acts on the question. In view of the recent supreme court decisions on the road tax and the appointive power amendments it would seem, we readily admit, that whenever it is brought before that body the supreme court will declare the amendment requiring a poll tax receipt as a prerequisite for .vceeiifig not valid. But the at torney general cannot declare it not valid, and he has not attempt ed to do so. He has merely ex- pressed an opinion which nearly every one else holds, that If ever tested the amendment cannot stand. This opinion is not the law of the state, for the state confers no such legislative functions upon the at torney general. If, for instance, the attorney general had expressed the opinion that the road tax amendment was not legally adopt ed, would taxpayer have been within his legal rights if acting under such an opinion, he had re- fused to pay the three-mill road tax? The attorney general has no power to set aside constitutional amendments which have been de- clared adopted and made part of our organic law by constitutional authorities, and our Republican friends will still have to produce their poll-tax receipts in order to vote.

ments are completed within a de- cade. And we do not doubt that 1t will be accomplished before that time
 We shall not undertake here to outline any plan to follow. Let the word impossible be stricken from our vocabulary and let our 6nanciers and business men, whose interests are the city's interests, begin to devise means. Money IS the one thing needed. It will re quire large amount, but not an impossible amount. Sixteen years ago, when Conway's population and wealth were less than half what they are today, the sum of S55, 900 was guaranteed to secure the location of Hendrix College here-and the money was paid. Only two years later an amount nearly as large was secured for Central College The donation of this money did not impoverish the town; our citizens are convinced now that 1t was money we'll invest ed. In a physical sense, water works and a sewage system would be worth more to Conway than both the colleges, but, in turn, they would make the colleges more valuable to Conway.
 We have no means of estimating the probable cost of these improve ments, but we will venture this as- sertion: Taking into considera- tion the panicky times between 1890 and 1894, the wealth and the population of the town at that time, when the liberal donations were made to the colleges, pro- portionately, large contribution and sacrifice of means upon the part of our people today will furnish mon ey enough to bring sufficient sup ply of water from the Arkansas river to Conway, install water works throughout the city and construct system to convey our sewage back to the river.
 By the above we do not mean that the money would have to be raised in similar manner as were the voluntary donations to the col leges. Such means would proba- ply be found impracticable. But we do mean to raise this question; Has Conway less of enterprise and liberality than it had sixteen years ago? If 1t has not, then we repeat that waterworks caN be secured for our city.
