Schools Independent of County Judge.

Attorney General w F. Kirby
county judge has no jurisdiction in
the election of school trustees. The
opinion was rendered in answer to an
inquiry concerning the legal status
of an unusual case in this state. An
election of school directors was held
at Bloomington. The vote cast was a
tie. The school directors then learn
ed that one vote was cast by man
who did not live in the district. They
then canvassed the vote, threw the
one ballot out, declared one of the
two candidates elected, End issued the
certificate of nominating him. The
county judge then declared that the
action was not legal and said he would
declare he Office to which the man
was nominated vacant Attorney Cen
eral Kirby held that the county judge
had no jurisdiction, and that the &C
ton of the school directors was legal.
The attorney general also rendered
an opinion in case in which town
marshal figured. Before taking the
oath of Office the salary of the mar
shall was increased. The question was
then raised as to whether the marshal
would get the benefit of the salary
during the present term. The attor-
ney general held he would not, be-
cause the salary was increased after
the term of Office had begun. In that
event, the attorney general held, the
incumbent of the Office does not re-
ceive the benefit of the increase of
salary until the next term.

Damage of $4,000 to the Potato Crop

The first car of potatoes shipped
from Fort Smith to st. Louis was rails
ed near Paris. The buyers there say
the stock showed the effect of exces-
sive rains. There has been less rain
about Paris than at Fort Smith and
digging is now general there.
Conditions at Fort Smith are very
unsettled 1t is estimated that one-half
of the crop within 10 miles of the city
has been destroyed by floods. Much
bottom land has been under water for
three weeks and the loss in that vi
entity on potatoes alone is estimated
at $4,000 The Eastern markets are
all unsettled, and local growers have
concluded to wait until the ground
dries out before beginning to dig. 1t
is not believed that more than 700
cars will be shipped this season.

State Capital Notes
Says steamboating Would Again Pay.

Says Steamboating Would Again Pay.
Acting Mayor John H. Hollis is in
receipt of an inquiry from a riverman
at Keokuk, Ia, as to the advantages
which the Arkansas river trade has
for steamboat men, with view to
engaging in local river traffic Mr.
Hollis referred the inquirer to Capt.
T. P. Brashear, who, for years, has
operated steamboats, on the Mississip-
pi and Arkansas rivers.
1t is the opinion of Mr.. Hollis that
Little Rock men should take hold
of any practical plan which would de-
velop steamboating out of this city
and that if properly managed such
scheme would be profitable to those
interested. He suggested that
Little Rock business men
might club together during
the summer and run excursions to
points on Arkansas river and the Mis-
sissippi, which would advertise the
city, as we'll as afford a pleasure to
the eXcursionists. Business men of
the city used to charter trains and
go to various parts of the state, exam
lining its advantages and resources
for several days at time, and the
acting mayor thinks that this sort of
thing should be revived with the ex-
cursions to be made by river.
Capt. Brashear has made the state
1nent that he could operate a boat for
10 or II months out of the year be,
tween Little Rock and Pine Bluff as
we'll as other parts of the river. Those
best informed on the subject assert
shat steamboat would be we'll pat
ronized by the owners of plantations
along the lower river if they could de
pend upon a regular schedule and
would give such line preference over
railroads
