Governor Little Weighs 75 lbs.

Greenwood, May 22.-A few intimate friends of Governor John $. Little were admitted to the sick chamber this afternoon and the appearance of the eXecu- tive was far worse than they had expected. He has fallen off in weight to such an extent that at the present time he can not weigh more than 75 pounds. At the timeOf his election as govern or the patient weighed apparent ly between 150 and 175 pounds. Despite his extreme weakness he rested well today and was un- usually cheerful.
 It was announced at the govern OTIS resi- dence this morning that if the health of the patient war rante0 it the doors would be thrown open and all the friends of the governor would be receiv- ed within a few days.
 The long illness of Governor Little has rendered him extreme ly weak. At times he is very eX- citable and irritable, and is whOl. ly unable to follow the trend of an ordinary conversation.
 It is given out by close friends of the governor here that there will be no interference with the executive office and Acting Gov ernor Pindall will serve until Governor Little has entirely re gained his strength. Consider ing the state of the executives $ health. it will be months under the most favorable circumstances before Governor Little will be able to assume any public duties.

New Problem in TWo-Cent Rate.

One of the questions which now confront the railroads of Arkansas and Missouri in con nection with the new two-cent rate laws in the two states is when the new two cent rate goes into effect in Missouri will the Iron Mountain rate between Prescott and St. Louis be the same as it is at present, cents per mile under the interstate traffic law, or will it be , cents per mile, the rate which will be in effect in both states? As yet this question remains unsettled although the federal courtand In. terstate Commerce Commission has held that the rate charged shall be the sum of the local rates, which would mean a rate of two cents per mile.

 Sidewalk Ordinance.
GENERAL CONVERSATION TOPIC.
One Can Hear But Little Else on the Street, and Some of the Talk is Real An
 mating.

The appearance of The Daily News yesterday, containing the proceedings of the Council Tues day night, caused considerable cOnsternatiOn among property owners in the Business part of town. The matter that caused the trouble was the passage of an ordinance requiring every one owning buildings along the prin- cipal business streets of the town to construct and maintain an eight-fOOt concrete side walk in front of said property. The letter of the ordinance means that all side walks now construct ed of brick, regardless of their condition, must be torn away and concrete put in it's stead All walks either over or under S feet wide must be shortened or widened as the case might be and any walk not conforming to the city'S grade must be changed to do so.
 They can't do it. '' m stand law suit"

 Other towns do it, why can f Prescott?
 In the meantime, the counci will await results until the si2 months expire A leading lawyer when questioned, stated that fight of the case meant the ex pendiure of a good sum of mon ey, much more than it woulC take to conform to the ordinance and there was of course libera I doubt that the law could be de feated.
