The Arkansas Tax Commission is
now busily engaged with the task of
assessing all railroad property in the

there will be a material increase N
the total valuation OF railroad prop

that the increase this year over the
valuation made by the commission
last year will equal the increase of
valuation of 1909 over that of 1908.
The commission made its first railroad
assessments last year, and at that time
there was plenty of room for increase
or at least SO the commission
found This year the increase will
principally be held to the improve.

which one might be subjected to pun
ishment. either by fine or imprison-
ment We think that is clearly one
of the powers which the people have

which the legislature is without au

words, it comes under the rule of
delegatus non pro test delegare.
Penal acts must be strictly con.
strued, and one of the most funda-
! mental rules of construct on is that
the act creating the offense must be
plain and certein upon its face. and
must not depend upon the action of
any other department of government
to supply its meaning, or make more
certain and definite its terms.
The legislature has no authority to
delegate to the board of control the

FLAW IS FOUND in
CATTLE TICK ACT
MUST CARRY LIQUOR SHIPMENTS
Judge Rules Express Companies Must
TAX. Orders Into Indian Territory.

Take orders Into Indian Territory.
Fort Smith, Ark.-Federal Judge
Rogers has handed down a decision
IN the case of the United States ex
rel Louis Friendman and Hiram Min
Ger. doing business as Friendman d
Co. against the United States EX-
press Company, in which he rules
that the mandamus. asked for by the
complainant to compel the express
company to receive liquor for ship
ment into that part of Oklahoma for
merly known as Indian Territory
shall be issued.
The opinion which fills q closely
typewriter pages, is of much import
ance. as express companies in Ark
ansas have refused to take packages
containing liquor to ship into the
Indian Territory part of Oklahoma, on
the ground that such shipments were
prohibited by a section of the en-
abling act. The court ruled that Ok
lahoma, in becoming a state, had to
accept the same duties and powers
of other states, the enabling act not
withstanding. This being the case,
the shipments of liquor into Oklahoma
from outside states come under the
interstate commerce act, and under
this act the express companies must
accept the liquor for shipment, pro
vding all other requirements Of the
law are complied with.

THE CAPITOL FUND IS DIMINISHED
About $4,000 Was Drawn Out Dur
ino the Last Quarter

ing tfC LdSt tzuailCI.
Little Rock.-The quarterly report
of State Treasurer j. l.. Yates, GOV.
ering the months of April, May and
June, which has just been given out,
shows that on July l there was $780,
seas in the general revenue fund
and a total of $2,474, 53OS2 in the
state treasury. The grand total, how
ever, includes s2,000,S00 worth of
funding bonds, fund bond coupons
and city and county scrip. OF the
total. $471 ,541.70 is in United States
currency.
The report further shows that on
July l there was $7,S41.S4 in the pen
itentiary fund Since then this fund
has been practically exhausted, a
state OF affairs which has not been
unusual with the penitentiary fund
for many months--a few short inter
walls excepted.
One thing which brings down inc
total amount of money in the treas,
ury is the fact that the state capitol
fund is down to little more than
$3.50 900. AS the county collectors
make their annual settlements, this
amount will be greatly increased, but
the increase will not make much of a
permanent showing, as the fund is
being drawn upon at frequent inter
walls as the construction work on the
new capitol progresses. About $780,
900 was drawn out of the capitol
fund during the last quarter.
The total disbursements for the
last quarter amounted to s432,775.92
