For Removal of University.

Senator Keel of Jackson county
sprung surprise on the Senate when
he introduced a bill for the removal
of the State University of Arkansas
from Fayetteville to Little Rock.
To say that the bill created a SEN
sation is putting it rather mild. Sew
eral senators had "hunch" that such
bill would probably be introduced,
but the majority learned of it for the
first time as the clerk read the bill
from the secretary's desk.
The bill provides for the removal
Of the university to Little Rock if
that city shall deposit with the state
treasurer the sum of 100000 in cash
or Improvement bonds, with $4,000
additional for the purchase of a site
for the university.
1t further provides that upon the re-
moval of the school to the capital
the buildings occupied by the present
school shall be taken possession of by
the State ad converted into a lunatic
asylum.
In addition to the $125,00O given by
the people of Little Rock, the bill
calls for an appropriation of $3.50, 900
from the state treasury for the pur-
pose of building and equiping the in
stitution.

With The
Legislators
Holland Wins Contest.

The Holland-Boles senatorial con
test was settled by the Senate cleo
ton committee, when, after an exhaus
tive examination of the records and
testimony in the case and a lengthy
hearing of the final arguments by
the attorneys the committee arrived
at a report in favor of Senator Hol-
land.
All of the members of the committee
feel that they have given this case
every attention to the minutest detail
and they have given the contestants
four lengthy hearings. They not aply
listened to all the argument brought
out by the attorneys, but questioned
the principals and attorneys to secure
details not shown in the testimony.

Paw Dau Bill Passes.

A prolonged fighe over the bi-month-
ly pay day bill, resulting in the pas
sage of the BILL The fight opened
Immediately after the reading of the
journal and the bill finally passed by
vote of "a to Z, majority which
did not indicate the strength of the
opposition to the speedy passage of
the bill, as the vote on the motion
to place the bill on second reading
and refer it to a committee was 6S
to "a.
Mr.. Monroe of Hampstead moved
that the bill. which had passed the
Senate and which was made special
order of business be placed on sec
ond reading and referred to COM
mittee for further elaboration. He
said he was opposed to "railroading"
measures through. This stand was
taken by practically all tfUse who
spoke against the passage Of the bill.
On the other hand, those supporting
the bill and contending for speedy
passage held that it was useless to
refer it to a committee because it
was short and simple and counld be
understood as well by the house as
that time as it could after a com
mittee had considered it.
Among other bills passed was one
prohibiting toy pistols in Arkansas
and another prohibiting telephone
companies from charging more than
SO for business telephone or 81 for
a residence phone. Several local bills
were passed.
A bill prohibiting persons in public
service from employing relatives in
that service failed to carry. Another
attempt to employ another clerk met
failure, also.

such stand because, they said, the
bill met with the approval Of the

to success. That's what men like.

Say what you please, do what you
please, the majority of men like a

John Temple Graves has magnifi-
cent command of language; without
exception he is acknowledged to be a
beautiful and eloquent speaker, so
why has he not succeeded as a poll
tician? Why? Because his writings
and his speeches have the odor and
fragrance Of the flower garden about
them. There is no ginger in his
speeches-when he writes. he mixes
honey, not vitrol, in his ink.
Men are not yet angels. They like
"a little touch of brutality. They like
to see the other fellow ripped up the
back" Why was it such an almost
impossible task to elect the sanity

matter to elect Mr.. Charles Dougher-

ON them. RecelveTships at best are
necessary evils. This one came into
existence as a preventive Of disinte-
grafton and for the purpose Of giving
the property a period of GONZALES
cence exempt from the opportunities
of creditors. But the Seaboard receiv.
ers have done more than this. They
have rendered constructive services
to a property which has always been
regarded as having possibilities for
investors with the growth of the ter
ritory through which it runs, Among
such services has been the reduction
in the percentage of operating expen-
ses to revenue from 1886 per cent
in 1908 to 69.57 per cent in 1903 with
out materially impairing the mainten-
ance OF equipment, in the same time
increasing by 99 per cent the outlay
on maintenance of way and structures
and adding S51 per cent to net oper-
ating revenue.
From the operating viewpoint, much
has been done to knit together the va
rious parts of the Seaboard mileage.
