Road Tax Amendment Attacked.

A complaint and petition for
restraining order was filed in
Chancery court at Little Rock u
few days ago by the st. Louis,
Southwestern Railway Co.,
against the sheriff Of Pulaski
county asking that he be restrain
ed from paying into the county
treasury the sum OF S3G2.5l, the
taxes collected by him for 1905,
from the railroad company under
authority given him by Amend
mont No. ) of the state cOnstitu-
ton, known as "The Road Tax
Amendment. The company al
leges that the amendment was
not legally adopted and therefore
the taxes collected shodld be re-
turned to the company. Inc sHlt
is based on the decision Of the
supreme court of a few weeks ago
which tribunal declared that
Amendment No. 3 was not legally
adopted and therefore void. AS
the other amendment, No. 5, was
voted on at the same time, the
same rule, it is alleged will apply
to the case.
At the general election at which
the road tax amendment was vOt-
ed upon it received 81, ,209 votes,
while 24,074 votes were against
it. The total vote cast was 116, =
378, and the amendment lacked
$50 votes Of a majority Of all the
votes cast.

An Impression of Gov. Davis.

Gov. Jefferson Davis of Arkan-
sas, who is spending few days
in Salt Lake, is one of the strik-
ing figures in national politics.
He is fresh from @ great victory
in his state, where he was nomi-
mated in the Democratic primaries
FOR the United States Senate,
after a hard fight which attracted
the attention Of the entire coun-
try. He is Of decidedly striking
appearance. Tall and Of massive
build, with a rugged face, the
first, and indeed the last, impress
sion he gives is one of strength.
Nobody could look at the govern
or and mistake him for an East
erRer. He is typically the West
erner in appearance with but
suggestion of the South. Though
his face is rather stern ordinarily
he greets his friends with gen.
Gnely genial smile and a. hearty
handshake. The impression
which opposing political papers
have sent broadcast on him as ar
uncoth swashbuckler is decidedly
erroneous. 1t is q matter requir-
ing no expert in physigomy to de-
eide from his countenance thai
he is a man who makes friend s
and keeps them, ard is an unde'
sirable enemy.-Salt Lake City,
Utah, Herald.
