Little Reck.-The first move for the annexation of Argenta to the capital city will be made this week. when an effort will be made to secure the requi. she number of signatures to start the ball rolling The Oldham -Hamiter bill for the annexation of the cities passed the hst General Assembly. April 2, after one of the hardest fought con tests of the legislature. Under the terms of the law, fifty qualified voters of Argenta, the city to be annexed, may petition the County Court, and it Is made mandatory on the County Court that an order be issued calling for special election to be held in both cities Each city will have one polling clerk and one judge in each of the polling places in both cities, who shall conduct the election. If majority of the persons voting on the issue shall favor annexation after the official re- turns made to the secretary of state the cities shall be consolidated. In case Little Rock and Argenta should be annexed the obligations of Argenta will become the debt of Little Rock, but will be paid pro rata according to the revenue derived from the smaller city. The property of Argenta will become the property of the united city. Under the law equal rights as to pub lie utilities. fire and police protection must be accorded Argenta. If the con solidation is consummated Argen- ta will become part of Little Rock as a ward, the same as before the sep aration.
