Totals

Even counting the non-committals as opposed to the measure, there is shown a clear majority of 36 favor ing it.
 That is sufficiently large majori- ty to put into effect any measure, and it is a safe prediction that five years after it has been a law the vote in it's favor would be much more nearly unanimous.
 Aside from the banks, public senti- ment generally is in favor of the law, except the usual number of Let-Aloners, who would make no change in existing conditions for fear of making them worse.
 Everything would be to gain, both for the banker and the depositor, for it would make stronger the bond of mutual confidence that must exist if the banks would prosper and the depositors be protected. The national Democratic platform declares for the measure, and the Arkansas platform, while not spe- officially declaring for the bank guarantee law, such as exists in Oklahoma, which MT. Bryan pro nounces the best bank law in the Union, does contain the following plank. which may be taken as it's endorsement:
 We believe that the general laws of the state are inadequate FOR THE PROTECTION OF DEPosIToRs of money 1 in the banks of the state, and there fore favor the passage of wise anc conservative banking laws, such a' will provide for the proper inspec tion of banks and the maximum pro tection of the people who deposit their money therein.
 That is sufficiently decisive for tho formulation of bank guaranty law that will meet all the requirements Arkansas Democrat.

MEN ARE NOT DISCHARGED.
Two Reported to Have Been Let Out
 by Rock Island Are Working.

Little Rock, Aug. 29.-'The story is without foundation and untrue. said General Superin- tendent w. M. Whitenton of the Rock Island railroad when asked about the report that Engineer Lee Boavee and Brakeman De- twiler had been discharged from the service of the road for smok- ing cigarettes. Continuing, Mir. Whitenton said:
 "Nobody has been discharged from our service and from the way the men are living up to the new order it does no' seem likely that any one will be in the near future. One would think from reading about the matter that all of our men were up in arms against the company. As mat ter of fact, the situation IS just the reverse.
 "With view to ascertaing the feeling of our men on the new anti-cigarette rule, l yesterday made personal investigation. l talked to some 30 or 40, and all of them are in hearty accord with the order. Our company is not opposed to smoking cigarettes, but the order was made because of the time lost in rolling them. We feel that the best interests of all concerned will be better served by having the practice cease We are not trying to deprive any man of his personal liberty, and this our men know; and they sup port the position of the company on this matter. As far as the en- giueer and brakeman who were reported discharged are concern ed, they are both at work

Little Rock, Aug. 29.-Senator Clark came out in the Little Rock oapers yesterday in a three col ann attack on amendment No. 10.
 He characterized the proposed amendment as "monstrosity, 7 ..miserable abortion," proposed oigantic steal" etc. He attacks E on constitutional grounds and as a proposition which. if legal ,zed would open the way to boundless possibilities of graft.
 He declares it full of iniquities and says that property owners in improvement districts already formed and even pail out. would he taxed for improvements by which others alone would profit. He shows that by the very pro visions of the amendment bond- ed indebtedness amounting to ten per cent total valuation could never be paid out, as three mill tax would not even pay the bond interest. He does not oppose a bond issue as an abstract propo- sitiuu, but says such an amend ment must be drawn with safe guards. State Auditor Moore and others also oppose the amend ment.

My back was lame and sore and the least exertion caused me to suffer untold misery from sharp pains in my back and across the region of my kidneys. This together with the too frequent action of the kidney secretlons convinced me that my kidneys were disor- dered. I was advised to try Doan's Kidney Pills and procured a box at the Palace Drug Co.

 Not Being Paid Promptly.

Little Rock, Aug. 3l.-State Auditor Avery F. Moore denies emphatically the statement pub. lished locally this morning that he is holding up Confederate pen. sion warrants and might not is- sue the same this year.
 Il merely said that the public would know in ten days what would be done about the pen- sions," said Dr. Moore, land l did not authorize the report that they were being held up. They are never issued earlier than the 10th of September
 The report was to the effect that, owing to the decision in the state capitol m m u case, in which that fund had been held up on certain tech nicalities, the state auditor would also refuse to issue warrants on the state pension fund.
 Tue fund amounts to nearly a half million. There is no ques- ton but that pensions will be is sued.
