PIcRIc ACID FOR BURNS.

TO heal with miraculous speed.
Ut. Thierry, a physician in the Par
IS Charity hospital, was in the habit of
using picric acid as an antiseptic so
that his hands were impregnated with
the solution. One day in lighting a
cigarette he dropped a portion of the
burning match in his hand, but in
stead Of feeling 1t he noticed not the
slightest pain.
A short time afterward while seal
ing a letter some Of the burning wax
stuck to his finger, and though it
cauterized the skin, he felt nothing.
he began a series of experiments in
healing burns with saturated solu-
ton of picric acid. All pain instantly
was suppressed. After having bathed
the wound in a solution of this acid
blisters did not form and a cure was
effected after four or five days.
The only inconvenience was that the
acid colored the skin yellow. But this
is rapidly remedied by washing with
boric acid. The cheapness of picric
acid and the ease with which a proper
solution is prepared have induced
many Partisan manufacturers to place
jars within easy reach of their work

Gov. Little Forced to
 Leave State for Health

people of the state, l aud sincere ly hope your honorable body will give them the force of law. l wish to call your particular at tentlon to two matters at this time. promised the people of the state radical change in the management of the penitentiary, and there Is no doubt tbat the people very much desire 1t, and heartily endorse that desire. have been warned that majority of the present board do not intend to change the present manage ment of policy. I hope your honorable body will, by legiSla- tive enactment, direct me to ful- i'll my pledges to the people.
 Another matter of grave con- cern to the state is supplying the needs of growing state without increasing taxation. l sincerely hope that your honorable body will weigh well the consequence ot an increased tax rate upon the growth of the state.
 JOHN $. LITTLE.
 At the conclusion of the read ing of the message, President Moore rose to make q few re- marks. His voice was full of emotion as he spoke:
 l regret more than words can express the conditions that re- quire me to leave this body and temporarily occupy the governors s chair. l shall agree to all bills that pass both houses, and no should be expected from me on any measure that the legislature thinks Is good for the state of Arkansas.
 l have given serious considera- tion to the question of how my successor here should be chosen. There IS nothing in the statute by which We can proceed. There fore, I ask tte leave of the senate to temporarily appoint presiding officers from day to day until the law of the matter is fully deter 
 l shall begin at the beginning of the roll call and go down the list day by day. Today the president of the senate will be Senator Amis.
The Springdale news., 1907-02-15

and Gov. Moore appointed H. K. Stirling as his successor, pend ing a speClal election.
 The Amis anti-pool selling bill passed the house Tuesday with only eight dissenting votes. This was the first bill introduced i'll the senate. It will be signed by the governor and will put a stop to all race meetings in the state where gambling is carried on.
 The controversy between ex- Gov. Davis and Auditor Moore as to the financial condition of the state has caused the appointment of a committee from the legisla- ture to investigate the matter. After the conclusion of the inves- tigation we'll probably know where we're at

Gov. Little and family. accom- panied by the family physician, left Greenwood Monday for Cor pus Christi. Texas, where they will remain until the governor recuperates suffi ciently to resume his duties. Although the gov ernor IS reported to be improving, his family and physicians thought best for him to go where he could have complete quiet and rest and not be worried with public affairs. During the absence from the state of Gov. Little, which may be several weeks, Hon. John l.. Moore. president of the senate. will be acting governor. The following message from the governor was read in the senate Tuesday morning:
 Greenwood, February 11.-To the members of the Thirty-sixth General Assembly of the state of Arkansas:
 Gentlemen-W When I assumed the duties of governor, on Janu- ary 15, little thought how soon 1 would be unable to discharge them. Day by day l have hoped that a speedy convalescenCe would enable me to resume my duties. but now my physicians warn me that can not hope to do so for two or three weeks vet.
 In view of the fact that many matters of serious concern 10 the people of the state are pressing for executive consideration, deem 1t wise to call upon the president of the senate to assume the duties of governor as provid- ed by law until such time as re- turning health will permit lie to resume them.
 In temporarily Severing my connections with this body, per init He to again call your atten- ton to the matters of grave con- cern to which l called your atten- ton in my inaugural message. These policies I discussed with the people of the state during the last campaign, and l feel very strongly endorsed by the

will doubtless be numbers of
 good men in the field for tne
 different offices.
 There seems to be some divis-
 ion among the members of tile
 house from Washington and Ben
 ton counties over the stock law
 introduced by Senator Thompson,
 and which has already passed the senate. We have not seen a copy of the bill, but if We understand
 the matter correctly 1t simply
 amends the present stock law in
 force in these two counties so as
 to include all kinds of stock, in- stead of hogs, sheep and goats,
 as under the present law. As the law now stands 1t is optional
 with the various townships of
 the two counties, but when once
 adopted the question is settled so far as that township Is concerned.
 We understand one of the Benton county representatives wants the law so changed that If a town ship tries 1t and becomes dissatis- fled they can by vote repeal the law, so far IS that township IS concerned. Such an amendment as this would result Tn endless confusion, and should not by any means be adopted, Under such q law matters would never be in q settled condition and no one would know what kind of fences to build The law might be adopted and fences built accord ingly, and at the next election some agitator might get out and work up sentiment strong enough to carry the election the other way when the farms of those who built fences after the adoption of the law would be at the mercy of the stock. Still an- other amendment proposed IS one to leave It to vote of the entire county. The News sees no par
 
 tieular objection to this, for We believe a ma iority ot the people of this county would vote for it's However, the people have become accustomed to vot- ing on the question by townships and 1t might be more satisfac- tory to the smaller inland town ships to let that feature remain as 1t is. The government quar- antine officers say that the adop- tion of a general stock law in Washington and Benton coun- ties will be worth thousands of dollars to the cattle raisers of these two counties, and in the light of this knowledge our rep resentatives in the house will be woefully negligent of their duty if they fail, through qulbling of details, to enact Legislation af- fording the people an opportun- ity to avail themselves of such law. The News suggests that the farmers and cattle growers of these two counties write their representatives, or send petitions, at once. There Is nothing so cal culated to incite member of the legislature to action as few words from the ''boys back home.'

1note and Comment


1s to be congratulated that the
 mantei-ot governor should fall, even temporarily. on the Shoul- ders of a man having the eharac-
 ter and ability of Hon. John I.
 Moore. Just think what would
 have happened to the state had Governor Davis taken Ill during his last term of office,
 Gov. John Ike Moore appears to be the whole show down at Little Rock When tune to open for business of q morning he goes to the senate and sees that the boys get down to work properly, and then steps over to the govern or,s office and keeps that part of the machine running smoothly. But the man who thinks he isn't equal to the emergency don't know Governor John Ike.
 Senator Cross, who k under indictment for purjury and also for soliciting bribe, did not ap- pear for trial at Perryyille last Monday, 1t being stated that he was too i'll to be present. On motion of Prosecuting Attorney Rhoton his bond of S2, ,o00 was forfeited to the state and bench warrant issued for his arrest. which will be served after the legislature adjourns. Mr. Rho- ton says he will demand that Gross stand trial at the August term of court.
 It was generally supposed that the bill introduced for county depository for Washing ton county provided for the funds derived from same going into the school fund, but Mir. Simpson, author of the bill, writes The News that the Washington coun- ty members were divided on the question, and he drew 1t so the revenue will go to the road and bridge fund. Washington coun- ty needs all she can raise for school purposes, and 1t Is equally true that she needs better roads and more bridges, so that in any event the county will be benefit ted by the law.
 Although 1t IS several months yet before another campaign will be on in Washington County there IS considerable talk going on as to who will be candidates for the various offices. As all the county officers, except asses sor, are now serving their second term, the crop of candidates next year promises to be unusually large. So far as now known Springdale will have one, and possibly two, candidates. s. l.. Todhunter has fully made up his mind to make the race for sheriff and l.. J. Reed Is considering the advisability of entering the con- test for county treasurer. Others who have been mentioned for although no definite statement as to their intentions has been made, are w. H. Hol- comb and Will Parish of Elm township, Joe Frost and Chas. Tunstill of Fayetteville, and Mack Morton of Pennington. Haden Smith of Richland Town ship, who is making the rounds with Collector Phillips, will be candidate for circuit clerk and 1t goes without saying that he will have opposition. Rev. killgore of Fayetteville and Jim Tenant Of Pennington are telling their friends they would like to be the next county clerk. Homer Pear son of Fayetteville will be in the race for county judge Senator Thompson and Representative Simpson are serving their second terms Tn the legislature, and what their intentions are is not known, we have heard the former spoken of as d possible
