JUDGE GOULD WILL REVOKE LICENSES Says He Will Not Tolerate Sunday Violations or
 Gambling. WANTS INFORMATION Directs Judge Stewart to Furnish Hm With List of SaIoonists
 Fined Since Jan, 1.
WANTS INFORMATION

Declaring that it is his intention to reSoke every saloon license of sa- loonlsts who violate the Sabbath or gaming laws, County Judge James Gould yesterday issued an order di- fectlns Police Judge J. K. Stewart to furnish the county clerk with an off cial list of saloon keepers of this city who have been convicted in the city police court since January 1, 1909, of violating the Sabbath or gaming laws or for selling liquor to minors. The order was filed with County Clerk Shelby and Judge Stewart was served with it immediately. The list will be prepared at once and filed with the county clerk
 The order of Judge Gould is be- lleved to be the result of the recent arrest of saloonist, who was arrest ed by Acting Night Chief Reidinger Sunday night on a charge of selling liquor on Sunday.
 Judge Gould declined to discuss the matter other than to say that he would enforce the law to the letter. He said that the better element of saloon men in this county are obey ing the law and in justice to them he intends to rid the city of all those who do not comply with it. In issu-
 ing licenses on January 1, Judge Gould required all keepers of dram- shops to sign an agreement that they would not sell liquor on Sunday, to minors or permit gambling on their premises.

M MADAMUS I POLICE JUDGE
 &ing Under Advice of At gorneys, Judge Stewart \ Holds Money,
ROM CITY COLLECTOR
'reIls Given Instructions to Go Into COurt-The Full Text of the
 Opinion.
--ns1- @s

Ac cting under the advice of his at
 neys. White and Alexander, who
 bndav night submitted an opinion
 the city council, in which they held
 at the recent ordinance adopted by
 lat body and transferring the duties of Sllecting fines and forfeitures of the blice department from the police (dge to the city collector, illegal, hdge J. R. Stewart, judge of the city
 olice court, yesterday declined to hrn over the receipts of the police burt to the collector. At the meet hg of the council Monday night City kttorney Sorrells was given instruc-
 Ions to take legal action to compel he police judge to comply with the lew ordinance, in the event that he efused to do so. City Attorney Sorrells is out of the fity for few days and will return Thursday. He will in all probability Institute mandamus proceedings in the chancery court when he returns to the city. The council may take |more drastic measures at it's next meeting, as City Attorney Sorrells |contends that city's legislative body has the right to remove the police iudge from office for his refusal to comply with their orders. His re- moval would necessitate the filing of charges, however and it is not very likely that Judge Stewart will be re- moved pending a hearing of the case. At all events the outcome of the legal procedure is being watched with in- terest
 The opinion of White and Alexan- der, which prompted Judge Stewart to decline to turn over the city's funds to the collector. follows:
 The Opinion. To the Honorable Mayor and Board
 of Aldermen of the City of Pine
 Bluff:
 Gentlemen:-Mr. J. R. Stewart, po- lice judge of your city, has asked us for legal opinion upon the question as to whether or not the ordinance lately passed by you, being ordinance No. 997, approved August 2, 1909. is legal so far as it affects his right to collect fines and forfeitures imposed by the police court for violation of the city ordinances of Pine Bluff. and to give you gentlemen the benefit of that opinion. We have given him the opinion which we now hand you and we ask your consideration of the same.
 The charter under which you act, being Section 5630 of Kirby's Digest or the Laws of Arkansas (Section 210 Coleman's Digest of the City Laws>, provides as follows:
 The judge of the police court shall on the first day of each month or within three days thereafter account uhder oath for all penalties, fines and ior1eltures imposed by said court in 'l'y cases to the city council, and Snall pay to the city treasurer the amount thus received by.him.
 oectioh 5629 of Kirby's Digest pro- ''ues that the police judge shall be o'erk Of his own court, and shall have

CODE MESSAGE
 RATE INCREASED Western Union and Postal Both Receive Notice Of
 Advance i'll Codes.
AFFECTS LOCAL FIRMS
Five Letters Will Make Word in Future-WiiI Revise Secret
 Codes.
IF " ,s
 - L ,El

Chicago Aug i7~-Ah increase of rates on code messages was an nOunced yesterday by Western Union and Postal Telegraph Companies. The new scheme, aimed at the cipher mes sage, goes into effect September 1 General use of the code system, the companies argue. has had a tendency to complicate traffic.
 By the terms of the dictum cipher messages will be charged at the rate of five letters to the word instead of ten letters, unless the telegram is built on words which appear in the dictionary. Domestic messages only are affected by the new rule, cable ciphers escaping the increase.
 Notice has been received of the above changes by the managers of both Western Union and Postal TeIe- graph Companies at Pine Bluff, and the new rule will go into effect Sep tember 1.
 The change affects only such words as are known in the code system as arbitrary words, or words which do not appear in the lexicon of the Eng fish language. Such words will be counted word for each five letters, which means that if the arbitrary word is of six or less than ten letters it will count as two words, more than ten, three words, etc.
 The system has been promulgated for the reason that the dispatching of arbitrary words requires the most careful transmission and in meas ure serves to complicate traffic. The telegraph companies believe that this class of service is entitled to a higher rate.
 It will probably mean the revision of large number of secret code sys- tems now in use to reduce the ex- pense of the service.
 A number of Pine Bluff business firms use secret codes in the transac- tiOn of business

Cheyenne St, Tacoma, Wash, says: q gave a state ment for publication; telling of my ex perlence with Doans Kidney Pills som years ago and am now pleased to confirm all l then said in their favor. l was afflicted with kidney trouble and finally I became so bad off that I was obliged to give up my work, 1 had dull, heavy pains through my kidneys and on one occasion l was confined to my bed for almost a month. The unnatural condition of the kidney secretions also plainly de- noted that my kidneys needed atten- tion. When learned of Deans Kid ney Pills, I procured a box and be- gan their use. I felt great relief from the first and before long my trouble was entirely disposed of have since had no return of kidney complaint"
