FOURTH BANK IS

WILL BE A TRUST co.
ORGANIZATION OF ANOTHER $50000 BANKING INSTlTU-
 TON IS PLANNED.

Conway is to be well supplied with banking facilities if the present plans of local financiers materialize. With the stock in $25,000 national bank already subscribed and the institution now in process of organization, rlans were laid at a meeting last night to form a $50,000 bank and trust com pany to begin business immediately. The latest bank, according to those in- terested in it's organization will not be antagonistic to the new atonal bank or to either of the two old banks, but will occupy field not heretofore developed in this city.
 The meeting was held in the office of Attorney R. w. Robins, who acted as secretary, Jo FrGuenthal plesid- ing. Among others present were s, G. Smith. president of the Plank of Conway, B. L. Harton, cashier of the Faulkner County Bank, F. II. Halter, J. w. James, D. O. Harton, J. H. Stubbs, w. J. Drummer, c. F. Dur ham, J. Haydon and Frank Farris, practically all of whom are stock holders in the two old banks and some of whom have subscribed for sto>k in the new national bank.
 After discussing the proposition at length, it was tentatively agreed to organize a bank and trust company with a capital stock of $50,0o9, prob- ably all paid in. It is planned to do general trust company ."lsiness, handling real estate. farm leans, in- surance, administrations, guardian ships, etc., and the real estate and in- surance business of C. k. Durham will probably be taken over by the company. Interest will be raid on savings deposits "a feature which 1t is thought will attract conside. able de- posits from persons not new doing business with any of the lot:l. banks.
 Chairman Frauenthal appointed c. E. Durham, J. w. James, D. 0. liar ton, J. Haydon and s. G. S'n'th as a committee to solicit subscriptions of stock in the new company. This committee will report at meeting to be held next Monday night, at which time it is planned to enter into a permanent organization.

Donaghey and John Ike Moore"
 In the house there was spirited discussion over the shot-firers' bill and motion to amend by exempting Johnson county, which is in the cemi anthracite district, was lost A bill was introduced for the consolidation of state and general elections, and providing regulations for the same in great detail. The senate showed it's temperament toward special legisla tion by passing an act authorizing the city of Bonneville to appropriate money for the special school district.
 It is understood that the appropria- ton bills for the various state charit- able institutions will be introduced this week, as they have already been prepared and practically agreed up- on. They will carry less than the amounts provided by the bills passed by the last legislature, but a little in excess, it is said, of the amounts left after many items had been vetoed by the governor. The purpose in intro ducing these bills thus early is to pre- pare them and get them out of the way for other legislation.

Little Rock, Feb. 14.-Shall the 5000 expended for the temporary heating plant at the state capitol be paid out of the general revenue fund or the state capitol fund? That is the question that occupied the entire at tention of the senate Monday. It arose on a bill offered by President Toney authorizing the payment of the amount from the general revenue fund. This was vigorously fought by Senators Covington, White, Clerget, Fletcher, Watson, Logan and others, who contended that the money should be paid out of the specific fund pro- vided for that purpose, by direct tax on the floor of the senate that some July 1, and the statement was made on the floor of the seante that some time during July there would be about $190,000 to the credit of the capitol fund, and that it should be paid out of that fund.
 President Toney announced himself supporter of Governor Donaghey on this measure, as the governor wants it and the capitol commission ,ecom- mends it. Turn him down this time" said he, you will make him governor for third term. once followed the senators from Johnson and Polk coun- ties, for I believed they were right, but the people said they were wrong and the governor was right, and now I am standing with the governor.
