 CEN'L NORWOOD DOESN'T KNOW MEANING BUT ATTORNEY GENERAL BE- LIEVES CITIES CAN AN
 NULL STATE LAWS.

Little Rock, Feb. 11-"I can see no reason under the initiative and refer endum as adopted by the people of Arkansas" says Attorney General H. L. Norwood, "why Texarkana or any other town in Arkansas, irrespective of the balance of the count, cannot hold an election and vote for liquor if the majority of the people of the town want it. I have looked over the act carefully, and to be perfectly frank, can not really tell what is possi- ble, or what is impossible under the act It all depends upon the con- struction the supreme court places up- on it.
 Ut has been said that the people of Arkansas cannot vote measures in- to locality at variance to existing laws of the state. That, I think, it very wrong in it's construction. The people of Arkansas, under the initia- tive and referendum, are given equal rights with the legislature. The leg islature every day passes general act, and by amendment one or more counties are exempted from it's pro- visions. Take the commission form of government bill-strictly out of ac- cord with our state laws-which ap- plies to Sebastian county alone. This is changing a state law so that one county can have different regulations, so why can't the people of cities and towns, which are included in the spe- cial wording of the act, vote for what
 they want, even though it is in viola
 tion of a state law then existing? The supreme court may say not, but be- | lieve as the initiative and referendum
 now stands, Hot Springs can vote
 alone on the question of horse rae
 ing in that city"

BOOKLET HELP TO
 ADVERTISE COUNTY

Secretary Banner of the Board of Trade is in receipt of the following self-explanatory letter:
 Fayetteville, Ark, Feb. 8, 1911. c. L. Banner, Conway, Ark:
 Dear Sir-I am writing to thank you for the pamphlets of What a Faulkner County Boy Has Done,' and wish to say that I distributed them on the agricultural train. The idea that an Arkansas boy could take over $400 in money off of one acre of ground in one year, made stupendous hit, and certainly helped to advertise Faulk- her county. Will appreciate any help or encouragement you may give the boys work in your county.
 Very truly yours,
 H. s. MORLEY,
 Special Agent.

The legislature begins the daily grind at 9 in the house and 10 in the senate, and immediately after ad- journment the committee work begins, which lasts until nightfall, with the big committees meeting at night, so that if legislator is so unfortunate as to be on several of the most inn portant committees, his task is not an easy one, as these night meetings of ten last until midnight.

Peking, Sept. 5.-The local iloou'

700 IN les. The banks OF the Yangtse-

Farm houses and brush huts nave
been submerged throughout the en-
tire district or are floating down the
river. The loss to foreign property is
extensive.
Shanghai trade has been serlous'N
affected and the cotton and rice crops
in the Yangtse- -Kiang valley have been
destroyed. The consequent lallurc

The Lao river in Manchuria Is also

The Chinese government has other
important matters confronting it at
the present time. Rebellions have
arisen in no less than five different
quarters.
Reports say that in the province OF
Kansu, the Mohammedans, twenty
thousand strong, are threatening SIN

worried over terrorists whom they
are endeavoring to ferret out.
