GOVERNOR CALLS EXTRA
SESSION TO MEET MAY z

raised the amount of general revenue
from 10000 to $1,000,000, and the
capitol fund from $165 900 to $780,
600, but made no change in the
amount to be raised for school pur-
poses. 1t was condemned as most
vicious bill by its opponents, and a
strong combination was formed for its
defeat
Representative Parker declared that
he would not permit the governor or
any one else to dictate to him what he
should or should not do, and he resent
ed the effort that had been made to
put a rope around his neck and lead
him. A motion was offered by Hurst
to strike out the item of 5000, 600
for the capitol fund. A motion to Ia
hle this. which would have carried the
bill with it, failed, but motion to
read the amendment the second time
lost, and no further action could be
taken. That left it dead ON the calen-
dar, as no business could be tran
sacted today under the resolution sub
sequently adopted.
There was an echo of the recent
bribery charges against the senate
when the committee on claims present
ed bill for $342.7O for the printing
of 25,000 copies of the speech deliv-
red May 3 by Representative Little
Hurst fought it on the ground that it
was unconstitutional, not being nee
ssary contingent expense of the state
government He opposed using the
peoples money to print the speech of
member, which was designed only as
means of relieving himself of per-
sonal spleen. 1t was argued, however
that the house by practically unani-
nous vote had ordered the speech
printed, and that not to do so would
throw the burden on the chief clerk
and would be a reputation of an OBJ
legation The bill was ordered paid
by a vote of 66 to 9.

LUNCH WAGON TO STAY
EMPHATIC REMARKS OF MAY
OR FEATURE OF CITY COUN-
GIL MEETING.

The feature of last nights meeting
| If the Conway city council was the
mphatic declaration of Mayor W. H.
Duncan that so long as he was in the
office a lunch wagon operated by Gus
| Hanary would remain on the public
square, where it is now situated. The
statement was called forth by the read
ing of petition signed by practically
| all of the business houses on the north
and west sides of the public square
and on both sides of Front street, re-
questing that the council order the
wagon removed. Mayor Duncan said
that the city was receiving So month
license from kanary and that the
! wagon was no more unsightly or det-
rimental to the city than many other
things that were permitted to go un-

stated that anyone to secure an equal
number of signers to a petition to
drive any business man out of town.
Efforts were made to dispose of the
matter at last nights meeting, but a
motion prevailed to refer the petition
to the committee on streets and al
leys.
Final action was taken on neither of
the two most important matters, the
sidewalk ordinance and the Boule-
Vard drainage proposition, last night.
The former was advanced to its sec
ond reading and referred to the I'M

work, was present and stated that
either of two routes for the big ditch
was <"actcable. The cost, he said, of
traightening and widening the ditch
along Elizabth street, in its present
route, would be practically the same
rs to construct new ditch along
Baridon street, with the exception
that the latter route would involve
the condemnation of several lots OF
private property. The committee was
granted further time for a more de-
tailed report.
The council fixed May 20 and % as
"clean up" days, and the mayor was
instructed to issue proclamation to
that effect. 1t was also decided that
the mayor be authorized to employ a
sufficient number of teams to haul off
all rubbish on these days which the
property owners might gather up and
place in an accessible position.
Mayor Duncan reported he had as
sessed fines amounting to Sill during
the past month, and Marshal Gil
bourn reported collections of fines and
licenses amounting to S78.
A request from President Millar of
Hendrix College that portion of
Front street be graded in order that
he might test at his own expense a
system of oiling to prevent dust, was
referred to the improvement commit
tee with power to act.
