money just to hoard it away would have a hard time getting it.
 Some of the local banks have at last yielded to the demand for cashiers checks and they began to appear yesterday. Some of the banks say these checks were only issued in favor of several firms who came to the bank and deposited the money to secure the checks which were needed in making change. One bank though, has placed a large amount of the checks in circula- tion in hopes of relieving the stringency following the cashing of the railroad checks on pay day, which amounted to over $500, ,OOO.

favors the Initiative and Refesssdum

Little Rock. Nov. T. Special This campaign for Governor is bringing out some new ideas in politics. The policy of the initia- tive and the referendum has nev- CT before been advocated in an Arkansas campaign, but Prof. John H. Hinemon, president of Henderson College, one of the four candidates for the highest office within the gift of the peo- pie, has declared that the referen- dunn is a necessity in State Gov ernment. Speaking of this fact, he said: Suppose the Legislature of this state should pass a Jaw which the people do not want. Why should the people not have right to ballot on that law and either affirm or abrogate that law? William J. Bryan has said that the people know more than any body. If that is true, and none will deny it, why not allow these self same people to express their opinion as to the action of their representatives in the Legisla- ture?"
 MT Hinemon is also opposed to too many lawyers in state off ces. The population of the state the lawyers represent less than one half of one per cent, but in offices the percentage is 66. Law yers are a necessity, but there are other classes of people who have right to some considera- tion."
