MAJOR MARTINEAU
 HELD INELIGIBLE
Decision Rendered by Attorney Gen eral Gusts Gov. Pindall's
 AppOintee.

Little Rock, Aug. 3.-Attorney- General Kirby rendered a decision late this afternoon holding Judge E. Martineau ineligible to appoint ment as assistant adjutant general of the Arkansas State Guard made by Governor Pindall.
 The opinion is lengthy docu- ment, being nearly five pages of typewriter matter, and goes into the law very fully. The attorney gen eral holds that Major Martineau is disqualified upon two counts, one being that the law requires all com missioned officers to be officers in active service in the Arkansas Ma tonal Guard at the time of their ap- pointment, or must have had actual service in the National Guard of tkjs or some other state, or i'll the regular army of the state.
 The other point covered in the opinion is that the appointment of Major Martineau was not made up- on the recommendation of the ad- jutant geenral, who named Capt. w. B. Pinney of Pine Bluff, for the position.
 Governor Pindall, at the time of the appointment of Major Martineau, called attention to the fact that Captain Pinney is a member of the legislature. and as such is barred from the appointment.

From Here to Little Rock. Is the Arkansas Pjver, Says Captain Ed Now land Sr.
WORK CONTAMINATED
Which thc Dredge and Snag Boats Have Done Between Little Rock and Memphis Beneficial 10 Both Little Rock and Pine Bluff.

Captain Ed Rowland was in Pine Bluff yesterday on his return to this city on the J. N. Harbin from Little Rock and he reports that the condi- 'tiOn of the river is fine, and cOmpli- ments highly the work of the dredge boats, which have been at work on the river for the past several mon hs. He says that the current of the riYer has changed at Wampool, and that it now runs through Bennington Bayou, near that place.
 The dredge and sandboats have done good work between Memphis and Little Rock, and they have 50 far im- proved the condition of the river that the Harbin will now be able to make the trip from this city to Little ROCK all the year round, while it has been understood here, that an impression prevailed among the people Of Lit tie Rock, that the river was naVigable only during high water. Captain Rowland makes no such dscrimina- ton in his statement, but says that now the river will he nayigable all the year round.
 This is quite an important thing fog Pine Bluff, as it will greatly increase the facilities for carrying goods, cot ton and other articles of trade much cheaper than heretofore. As soon as the new and increased boat service between Little Rock and Memphis and Pine Bluff and the mouth of the river is established, which Captain Rowland assures will be done shortly, the river trade will doubtless increase rapidly.

City Engineer Parkes Is Preparing Plans and Esti- mates of the Cost of the Wharf at This Point.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
10 Be Made at q Special Meeting of the Board of Trade. Which Will Be Called for the Purp0se-Expect to Start Work S0On.

l Major w. J. Parkes, city engineer
 returned Friday night from Little
 Rock, where he had been for the day
 in company with Captain Ed Rowland,
 manager of the Arkansas River Pack l ct Company, inspecting the wharf at i'Little Rock, and arranging details forJ
 ithe installation of the new wharf at this point, which the packet compa- ny, assisted by the city authorities, expect to construct
 There is a special committee from the Board of Trade at the present time examining the wharf situation in detail, and it seems probable that some decisive action in this direc- tion will be taken III few days. i Major Parkes has been requested by this committee to prepare plans for the construction of such a wharf as the packet company thinks necessary to handle the river business at this
 point, and it was to find out exactly
 what kind of a wharf they thought necessary to handle their business that City Engineer Parkes went to t5e
 capital city.
 Major Parke. says that in few
 deys he will have completed his plans, specifications and estimates of the cost for the wharf, and that a. that time it is very probable that | special meeting of the Board of Trade will be called to consider the ques- ton. and see what help the business men of the city, through the Board of Trade, can give the packet company in the construction of this wharf which has been needed here for so long.
 Major Parkes has already gotten prices quoted on several of the neces- sary materials for the erection of the wharf, and his estimates will be ready in few days.

George R. Jeter Shot and KjlLe& by T. ,. Talbot. 8 Companion, Over Small S,,22l of . Nickel.
FINGERED IN AGONY
Thr Trouble Arose at il Roulette Wheei ih Jackson, Mi>s.. and a Misinterpretrd Move of Jcter's Caused the shots.

Jackson, Miss, Aug, 3.-After lingering all night i'll agony and un- consciousneec, death came to the re lief of George R. deter, the young man who was recently shot down by died at g 10 o'clock yesterday morn ing, at the sanitorium where he had been attended all night by surgeons and nurses, though from the first il was realized that he was past hope. Before death those attending sue ceeded in asccItaining that he was From Monticello, Ark, though lie had been ill this section for some time following his avocat1On of d general good all-around oil mill man. Following up the directions obtained, telegramS of inquiry were sent to Monticello and to Argenta, Ark, in order to ascertain definite lN the disposition of the body.
 Seen in his cell al the jail just af- ter the death of Jeter, Talbot, when told of this fact, broke down and spoke hushfly admitting that ne had no idea of the deadly effects of his shots. He admitted that it was a trivial matter about which they had quarreled, involving in fact a nick le, which had been played on the roulette machine which Talbot had laid on color and someone had removed. The epithets liar and thief were passed and then, Talbot states, he was endeavoring to get away in order to avoid further trouble when Jeter moved towards him and made as though he would draw weapon, when he drew and fired with fatal results as stated.
 Talbot is from Athens, Ga, and had begun life as a farmer. but drlfted away from his home and fol- lowed varlous occupations. At the time of his trouble he was an em- ploye of the Sligo dairying plant, west of the city, and had laid off, owing to some trouble with the manager c, c, Cheatham. He had met Jeter a day or two previously and they had one or two drinks to- gether, and there had been no pre- vious trouble between them. His mother and friends in Georgia have been notified of his trouble, and as soon as possible he will ask for an Investigation by the city magis- trate.

ARKANSAS NATIONALS
 GO TO HOT SPRINGS

The Arkansas Nationals will leave early Sunday morning for Hot Springs, where they will play today They have found that only about seven or eight of their men can go eon the trip over Southern Arkansas which they have planned for some time, but they will try to pick up three or four-~new- men at Hot Springs or Little Rock so that they may yet be able to make the trip They will play picked team at Hot Springs today, and if they come off vlctors, their right to the amateur championship of the state will be firmly established, as they have al ready defeated other teams success ively, and the Martin Arms team the erstwhile champions, lost three straights to them.
 They will probably return to this city before leaving Monday for their games on the road though that has not been positively decided

ATTORNEY MCDONALD
 LOST HIS CASE

Fort Smith. Aug. 3.-The tining of non-payment of dog tax yesterday morning has caused a great deal of amusement throughout the city. MT. Mcdonald has so consistently prose cuted alleged lawbreakers that public opinion demands that he prove him self without sin before he casts q stone at others and the incident has further accentuated public sentiment against the prosecution of the vendors of soda water, cigars, ice cream and periodicals on Sunday Mr. Mcdonald holds that there is no law providing for the taxing of dogs born after the dog tax becomes due. He has paid the tax on the parents Of three pup pies, which were the cause of his prosecution.
 The ordinance under which he was fined provides that when the word dog is used it shall be understood to mean dogs of either sex and of any age Judge Freer refused to accept MT. McDonald's interpretation of the law and assessed fine of s with instructions to the prosecuting attor- ney to take out licenses on the three pups. Mir Mcdonald informed the court that he would do nothing of the kind and gave notice of appeal. It is the expressed opinion here that his refusal to have all his dogs legally tagged has weakened his influence as a refOrmer.

IF HE SHOULD DAREi

IT, must have caused no end of aston
ishment among the faithful of the Nor
mon church TO sec the wide publication
and acceptance in the East Of the fable
that Reed Smoot has always opposed
polvgamv, and been known in Utah and
in the church as its deadly foe, and as
the champion Of monogamic marriage.
SO widely has this wholly baseless
claim spread throughout the country,
that it seems hopeless for the truth to
overtake the lie, and to put the actual
attitude of Smoot toward polygamy
right in tho public mind
Tho fact is, Smoot comes of a polyg-
amist family. He was brought up In
the system. He has no abhorrence of
it. He is thoroughly used TO it. lie
has never objected to il even IN prl-
vate, so far as we ever heard, while
his denouncing or opposing it in pub.
lie is Just as unthiukable as il would be
that a deacon in an orthodox Christian
church should spurn the eucharist.
Smoot has repeatedly given in his adj
herence to the doctrine: he is undoubt-
edly in some form of polygamous rela-
tion himself. probably sealed to dead
woman for the joys of paradise. His
constant associations have beon with
polygamists. He sustains md advances
polygamists in church preferences pro-
per and in the educational work of tho
church. He has never objected to a
polygamist on account of his polygamy.
He has never brought a polygamist to
justice, as such. lie is the willing tool
and representative OF law-defying,
reasonable, lechcrous, grasping, avari~
cious priesthood, and is scornfully proud
to be so.
We have often wondered what would
happen to Smoot if he should get up
in Mormon meeting, say in the Taber-
nacle, and dcnounce polygamy, as it
seems the Eastern people think he is
in the habit of doing. There might not
not be an Immediate ruction, but also
there might be things "1ying through
the air. y But whether the hostile
demonstration took that form or not,
there can be no possible doubt of the
hostile reception Of such dcnunciation
of polygamy by him. And it is pretty
certain that at the next meeting of his
apostolic quorum he would be declared
out of harmony with 1T, and incon-
tinently ousted. And then his Senator
ship would fail, and even his member
ship in the church be put IN jeopardy
A denunciation of polygamy by Apostle
Smoot in a Mormon meeting! Well,
we guess mott Neither now or ever.
