There Is apparently az this time

vor Of the adoption OF the initiative

LAND CONGRESS
 AT HOTEL MARION

Little Rock, Mar. 2.-There IS q possibility that the Arkansas Land Congress will hold its first conven- tior in the new banquet hall of the Hotel Marion instead of the House of Representatives, if the hall can be completed by the time scheduled for the convention
 This hall will have seating ca pacity of 1,20O, and there will be no posts in it anywhere. Decorators are now working on the room attempting to have it completed by March "A, the opening date of the convention. The Marion will open the entire an- mex, with its 125 rooms, all fire-proof, by the first of April.
 The directors of the hotel expect to make the opening an event Tn the history of Little Rock, and provide sufficient room so that at no time in the future will visitors have to sit up all night for want of place to sleep.

COMMISSIONS BRIEF
 IS ALL READY
Case of State Tax Commission Against Miller County Clerk Will Be Heard In Supreme Court Next
 Monday.

Little Rock, March 2.-David A. Commission, has completed the brief of the Commission in the suit of the State of Arkansas and the State Tax Commission vs. A. B. Little, county clerk of Miller county, which will be argued in the Supreme court Mon day.
 The brief is an exhaustive one and touches upon every opinion which has any bearing at all on the case. It izers of Miller county went over the property and made many increases. particularly in corporations and banks, in an effort to equalize the property values and put it on the books at 50 per cent valuation. The taxpayers appealed to the county court, where sweeping reductions were made
 The tax commission then applied to Chancery court for an injunction to prevent A. B. Little, the county clerk, from changing the figures as made by the Board of Equalization, and which were already on the books. The Chan cellor dismissed the temporary in- junction on demurrer, without going into the merits of the case, for want of jurisdiction. An appeal was then prayed by the commission. The com mission relies much on the recent decision of the Supreme court rela- tive to the assessment on Jonesboro banks, in which the court held the commission had no right to equaliZe individual assessments. The decision held that the Commissions jurisdic- tion with respect to individual as- sessments was merely supervisory. The commission states 1t is now en- deavoring merely to secure through the courts relief from what it belives to be wrongful acts of the county court of Miller county.
 The appellants allege there is no remedy at law for the actions of the county judge, that all property of the state should be assessed uniform ly, that valuation must be the result of honest judgment, that courts are not created for the special protection ! of the tax dodger, that the Supreme court has held final orders of county courts can be attacked by injunction, that equity will interpose to enjoin the enforcement of any judgment, and If the right of appeal from the coun- ty court order exists, it would be ne- cessary to prosecute a separate ap- peal from the order as applied to each taxpayer, making some three hundred separate appeals to be taken, for which reason chancery will in- terpose to prevent a multiplicity of suits.

ATTACKS PROTECTIVE TARIFF
Lead Schedules Do Not Suit
Him and He Blames Cannon

Manhattan, Kan, July Ex-senator
Bristow in a speech here last night
charged Speaker Cannon and the
"stand-pat" congressman with a ma

tariff bill in support of the "smelter
trust" "A duty measuring the diff
ference in the cost of smelling at
home and abroad is promised in the
Republican platform but duty from
$3.50 to $500 higher than the entire
cost of smelling in this country was
imposed on lead" the senator said.
This was not done in the interest of
protecting a struggling industry, but
in the interest of monopoly controlled
by the Guggenheims, backed by the
great Rockefeller financial interests.

sort of thing, Mr.. Cannon calls me

vituperation, why doesn't he give rea-
