State Capital Notes
Pardons Issued.

Acting Governor x. o. Pindall Mon. day issued a pardon to Milton F.. Rem ley, a negro, who was convicted at Drew County Circuit Court of the the September, 1907. term of the charge of assault with intent to kill and sentenced to three years in the state penitentiaay. The petition for his pardon stated that Remley was charged with killing another negro and alleged that in killing the negro he acted in selfdefense.
 Acting Governor x. O. Pindall Tues day issued two pardons. One was granted Joe Weldon, convicted in the justice of the peace court of Garland county, January 2, of petit larceny and fined $50. The other was granted to Henry Laney of Alexandria, La, who was convicted in Police Court recently for forgery and fined $500 and sen fenced to six months on the county farm. Governor Pindall granted the pardon after receiving a petition from prominent people at the boys home and consulting with Police Judge Rat terree, who advised the pardon.

Increase In Value of Cotton.

At round estimate, all of the cot ton now within the borders of Arkan- sas has increased in value S2,76c,00 within the last 10 days, as a result of the operations of Daniel Sully on the floor of the New York Cotton Ex- change. A tidy sum that, and one that would purchase nearly 50,000 more bales at closing price on the market for middling Saturday, which was 11.56 cents or 60 points higher than 10 days before This approximation is based on the assumption that there are S00,000 bales in the state, which figure most cotton men accept Should the hope of the farmer be realized by seeing the figure per pound soar to 15 cents, the increase in value would be in the neighborhood of $16,500,000, or enough to build two battleships such as the great Connecticut, which Is one of the heaviest type in our naval force, with a sufficient sum left over to add materially to the mosquito fleet The total price at 15 cents would be S60- 000000, which would build a whole navy, to continue the parallel.

Books Are Rottinq.

A pile of wreckage in the nature of a moth-eaten and rotted-out old state i record reposed in stately dignity Sat urday in the middle of the floor of the office of State Printing Clerk Earl 1 Hodges. There was nothing left of the book whatever but the binding, the leaves having rotted away and left a sticky. mouldy mess The wreckage was viewed by many state officials during the day and the sight of 1t | brought forth anew the question as to what can be done with the state house records and books, all of which are rapidly rotting away and for which there Is no suitable storing place. Tie 1 secretary of states library is stored in room on the first floor of the state house, in the southwest corner. Tho room is no longer a suitable place for the storage of the books, as they are moth eaten and rapidly rottng away from dampness. It is very probable that the books will be moved out to the old penitentiary hospital building on the new state house grounds, in which some of the states records and books are already stored. pending the completion of the new state capitol. Many of the old records in the state auditors office are badly rotted. They are practically ruined, as writing on the leaves of the books can no longer be read. The Supreme Court library is still in good shape. It could not be moved anyhow until the Supreme Court is ready to be moved into the constant need for all the books in 1 the library

Negro Must Hang.

The appeal of Col Jones. the negro from Miller county, sentenced to be hanged February If on the charge of murder, was refused Tuesday by the Supreme Court. The appeal was refused after the transcript has been read by one of the justices The ne- gro is charged with killing a negress. Unless Governor Pindall intervenes, the negro will be hanged. Governor Pindall, asked concerning the matter. stated that he knew nothing whatever of the case, and from his attitude indi- cated that it had not been brought before him
