AUDITOR MOORE SUSTAINED
Supreme Court Upholds His
 Contentious
In the Matter of the State Capitol Fund-Livs News from the
 Capital City.

Little Rock, Jan. 2I- Special Correspondence. - By unanimous decision, the supreme court of Arkansas yesterday afternoon sus- tained the contention of Dr. Avery E. Moore, state auditor, that there was no fund from which money could be paid for the construction of the state capitol building. The supreme court held that all appro- priations last but two years and must be made by each legislature.
 Fifty convicts were recalled yes terday from Contractor Reeves who is doing railroad work near Cotton Plant, and from Contractor Dick inson, who is also railroading, in the vicinity ot Eldorado, and sent to the state farm. All the con victs are negroes and will be used in picking out the cotton yet in the field, before 1t is wasted. The additional force was required at the farm on account of the cotton crop being so much ln excess ot what it was first expected to be.
 The state republican convention will be held in Little Rock about the first of April, and there is ex- pected to be great gathering of the clan about that tinie. Capt F. w. Tucker, internal revenue collector, and press agent Of the state central committee; and H. l.. Remmell, United States Marshal, have just returned from St. Louis, where they met Gen. Powell Clay ton, and heard him declare for an uninstructed delegation from Ark ansas, and late state convention.
 Providence Is about the only thing that can beat Donaghey now, remarked prominent state | official, who was discussing the political race in the state house this morning. Things have so shaped up for him, that he will hardly lose a half dozen counties of the state, " he continued, and it would save a whole lot of trou- ble to make 1t unanimous.
 This is about the opinion of most of the people who reside in, or come to Little Rock. Charges of all kinds have been made against Donaghey, but they all rebound to the personal discomfort and political loss of the candidate start ing them. Some of these charges are made in the most underhand way, and none of the candidates will openly father them, but they bear such plain earmarks, that they are unmistakable. The su- preme court decision of yesterday on the state capitol fund, still fur ther advances the Donaghey in- terests, and prominent men of the state, who have never before warm ed up for any candidate, are now speaking of Donaghey as the next governor, beyond any possible . doubt.
