Night Session in the House.

NiShN 0SsSlOH III tHe TIOube'
The members of the house have
their working clothes on now, night
and day. From 1880 to 10 p. m. much
business is despatched, clearing the
way to adjournment. At the night
sessions, attention is given mainly
to local bills, which have been a great
obstruction to general legislation.
Some unique resolutions we're intro
duced at recent night sitting along
toward 10 o'clock, when the burden
of care and work was resting heavily
upon the solons. Mr.. Hurst felt that
compensation for night and day ses-
sions ought to be raised to $l2, but
his proposition was ruled out of os-
der Mr., Parker then offered res.
Olution instructing the clerk of the
house to provide for each member at
tending the night sessions three box
es of sardines, also a cot, straw
mattress and straw pillow, in order
that work might not be retarded by
members having to leave the hall AMI
seek slumber in their rooms, but the
body had gotten sleepy and the house
3djourned before Mr. Parker could
get his resolution through.

Session Re-extended to May ts.

Senator Keel's joint resolution to
extend the session from May s to 13
was adopted by both houses with
dispatch and without debate. Some
days previously the senate passed a
resolution to adjourn on May in
stead of the 18th, the date formerly
set, and the house lost no time in
concurring After that had been
done, both bodies realized that a mis-
take had been made in their hasty
action of curtailing the working time
Of the session while many important

TO Regulate Hotel Rates.

fNNAGi HdlCSs
"A uoupie'header measure, intro
nuceu III the senate by Senator Ton.
sy ana IN the house by Mr.. Thweatt,
seeks 10 regulate hotel rates by pro.
siding that no hotel in the state may
charge more than double the price
tor one person on single room. In.
asmuch as the hotels of Little Rock
,re arranging to place cots in their
rooms Tor the accommodation Of an
extra humber OF guests during the
reunion, the measure has aroused
much interest The bill in the sen.
ate was postponed for two weeks on
the motion Of the author, but a strong
effort was made to get the house bill
through. Mr., Thweatt thought the
bill a good one, in that it would pro.
tect the public against extortion by
the hotels in the future. Mr.. Jones OF
Pulaski declared that the enactment
of such a law now would work a
great hardship on the public during
the reunion, as under such condi-
tions no hotel would room the extra
number of guests now contemplated,
as they would be prohibited from col
lecting pay for same. Mr.. Neale
characterized the measure as class.
legislation pure and simple, and the
bill went over to some future time for
final consideration.

than that Of commission form Of

was the tabling of the Calvert bill
providing to give cities in Sebastian

first speaker of the evening. He said
that he could not see where WASH

1000 qualified voters in this ward.
each of the remaining wards on the
north side would have a much larger
number and would therefore be the
ones represented in the government.

knowledged that many Improvements
have been made since annexation. but
they had gotten them through their
own representatives. and that If they
were not sufficiently represented
