$5o,ooo VOTED TO
 PROSECUTE CONTEST
Lower House of Arkansas Legislature Approves Rail road Fight Measure After Sharp Debate - The Senate Asks Report-Committee to Investigate Alleged Expenditure of Experiment Station Fund at the State University

Little Rock, Ark, Jan. 222.--After the sharpost discusison yet indulged i'll the house this morning passed .fiouse Bill No 31, by A1r. Parks of Lafayette, being a bill to appropriate $5o,0e for the purpose of maintain ing and prosecuting certain suits on behalf o1 the state railroad commits sion and to employ chief counsel, ex- perts, etc, in assisting the state in it's fight against the rate injunction.
 As on yesterday MT. Thompson of independence opposed the measure, declaring that the expenditure pro- posed is unreasonable and unWar- Eanted under present circumstances, calling attention to the many much needed appropriation bills that would have to be passed and intimatins that services able to cope with the situation could be had for half the amount carried by tie bill. He said that other states had handled sim liar. cases without such measures and that this state should be able to ,lo the same thing. and suggested that ii the attorney general was not able to meet the demands Of the case either the salary Of that office should be increased or q contingent fund cre ated in order to attract men who could measure arms with forces op- posing the states interests.
 His attack OH the measnre brought on one of the most brilliant replies ill the house ill many a day in the Way Of imprompju debate by Mr. Parks ill defense ef the measure. Nr. Parks de- tended the attorney general s office by declaring that comparisons with other states in which similar contests had been waged were unfair, inasmuch as these states had numerous assistant attorneys general and large conting- ent funds at their disposal. He de- elared that if the legislature did noth- ing else during the entire session other than pass this one measure il would have discharged q duty of un- told value to the state and that while he had no idea on earth as to who would be appointed to represent the state as chief counsel, he wanted above everything else to see the rail- roads of the state given q drubbing they would not soon forget.
 The vote on the question was called tor and showed the bill and full ap- propriation sustained by 8 vote of ST to 3, and amid cheering, the Speaker announced the passage of the bill
 To Preserve Old Stateh0use.
 Among other features of the morn ing was the presentation of d peti- tion from Keller Chapter, United Daughters of the Confederacy, asking that the state forever retain posses sion of the old statehouse, and set 1t apart for such purposes as should De deemed wisest by the general assem- bly.
