LET THE UNIVERSITY GO TO LIf-
 HE ROCk.

The agitation of tbe question Of tie removal of the Arkansas tniTer- sity from Fayetteville to Little Rock seems to Us to have bur one side t0 it. IL is true the state has group of valuable buildings at Fayetteville, and tie people Of Washington county have paid a large sum of money in principal and interest for the location Of the University upon it's present site, but the citizens of Little Rock have raised fund to reconstruct the buildings and reimburse Washington county for every cent it has paid out on this behalf. In this contingency there is no possible chance for Wash ington county to lose anything more than the prestige of having within its borders the states highest education. al institution.
 Little Rock is already the seat of the law and the medical departments of the University, and it has been pretty clearly demonstrated that so long as the main college remains where it is it will amount to but lit tie more than high school or prepa- ratory institution for the real colleges of the country. Laying sentiment aside-and Washington is great county, filled with good people, and has faithfully fulfilled her part of the financial obligations of the arrange. ments long before maturity, as we happen to know-the fact remains that Little Rock is the business, poli- tical, social and financial center of the state, and is logically the place for the State University. It is already the center of learning of the state Lawyers who rank with the best in the world reside there. It will soon have magnificent public library. It is the seat of legislation. In fact, Sc many reasons are apparent for the location of the chief educational in. stitution of the state at that place that they scarce need recapitulation
 On the other hand, the prosperity of Fayetteville in no wise depends upon the retention of the Universit, at that place. It is in the midst o one of the finest fruit-growing anC agricultural countries in the world The return of the money which would occur in the event of the transfer tt Little Rock would enable Washing ton county to place her roads in first class condition, build needed bridges construct other necessary improve ments and cause it to forge ahead al once as the best county in the state from financial and physical stand point.
 Fayetteville would be the gainer b, the removal of the State Uniyersit, 10 Little Rock.

New LeYee Bill.

Senate Bill No. 100, by Senator De Rositt, was introduced as substitute for No. 37l. introduced few days ago. The bill is a compromise bill in the matter of the St Francis Leyee District bond issue. It provides for the issuing Of S32j, ,O00 of D and 40 year bonds, with an acreage tax of II cents, and the creation Of a sinking fund of SIS, 200 to retire the bonds at the end of that time and at that rate. The bill. 1t is understood, meets with the approval of the House members and is distinct victory for the views of Senator DeRositt, for which he con- tended before the board meeting and also in the legislature.
 My object is to do away with the issuing of certificates, which has proved ruinous to the district, said Senator DeRositt, and l am confi- dent that this bill will accomplish this much desired purpose as well as 10 care for present obligations. ''
 The bill was read twice and made a special order for Thursday morning.
 Because Senator :DeRositt and Sen ator Patterson succeeded in having the bill postponed indefinitely post poned some of the Eastern Arkansas friends of the senators gave each a present yesterday. 4 gold headed cane was given Senator DeRositt and gold headed umbrella 10 Senator Patterson.
 The bill was read the third time Thursday morning, and passed the Senate by vote of 3 10 1.

had lost their charms with the music

band turned and marched to the

the time the band halted in front of
the church fully 400 golfers and gar

New Law Is Expected.

Most of them are Industrious and
God-fearing. I prophesy that in the
next year the United States will have
the best immigration law that it is
possible to enact. 1t will be sieve
through which only the best can
come. Most Italians are religious
and few criminal. Very few are
tramps and a vast majority are self
sustaining. Another thing we hear
very much of the million that enter,
but nothing of the 40 per cent of that
million which every year returns to
the fatherland. Let them come. Of
course there are criminals among
them because they are human. But
II venture to say that our own Amer
leans overtop them in the percentage
of born and bred criminals"

ness the bigger the bill-all the traf-
fic will bear.
And so IT goes through countless
ramifications and is still growing as
fast as the politicians can find some
shadow of excuse for adding to the
burden.
And last, but not least, when some
sturdy young fellow meets the girl
girl he wants for wife, puts his
arms around her and gathers her
up where she belongs, close to his
heart, and when she drops her fluffy
little head down on his bosom, while
her heart overflows with love, and
they picture a little home where they
may be together as the Good God in
tended they should be-even here,
in a matter which is nobody's busi-
ness but theirs, thu big, wealthy
county reaches out its miserly hands
and demands a license and a fee, and
the young fellow goes down in his
pocket and pays into the county
treasury his hard earned dollars for
the privilege of living with his own
wife. The shame of IT, individuals
who take money this way are called
some pretty hard names. Is a COM
munity that does IL any better?
And why all these licenses? What
good do they do? Where does the
money go? The answer to the last
Is easy. While a portion of IL finds
its way into the treasures OF the
state. county or city, the fees or sal
aries allowed for collecting Il gen
orally eat up the lions share. II
maintains a lot OF boards and COM
missions and agents, some OF them
perhaps, necessary, but others, far
from t.
These licenses are levied on the
system OF what the traffic will bear
and all have tn same puerile ex-
cuse. THE amount is but a trifle."
True, the charge for fishing, for In
stance, is small, but II the traffic
would stand Il II would be Just as
much larger as Il could be made, but
as Il won't, the generous state gov
ernment only holds us up for as
mach as we will stand without a
fight.
In other words, the license Is so
regulated and graded that II plucks
every feather from the big public
goose that II win stand without
squawking.
Il may be that this language is a
trifle unlicensed. II so, just remem-
ber that Il Is about the only thing
left In that condition, and so IL
should prove something of a treat
to the great army of the licensed.
