Railroad Commission Es Arraigved.
 The S25,000 item carried in the gen. eral appropriation bill for the main- tenance of the railroad, commission evoked some pointed remarks by Senator Covington on a motion made by him to strike thu item from the bin. He challenged any member to show wherein the railroad commis. sion lad rendered any substantial service to the public during the F years 1t has been in existence. They prepared a schedule of freight and passenger rates. he said, then called for special counsel to enforce them. The special counsel was paid S50,000 of the states money and even now, after the courts have held that the commission is wrong, we are asked to put up more money for special coun- sel. whose only argument in favor of such is that they think they can win. He criticised the special counsel, whose ability he compared to, that of common railroad lawyers, and de- clared the railroad commission to be the greatest fraud that was ever foisted upon the state
 House Recognizes Soldier Boys.
 Representative Lewis of St. Fran. cis county won a signal victory when he secured the passage of an appro- priation of S18,5O0 for the Arkansas National Guard, in the face of deter mined opposition. He made strong and effective speech in support os the measure, declaring that the guard is one among the necessities of the state and that the appropriation is Very reasonable. Representative Grant thought 1t a useless expendi- ture, in fact did not think the state needed hny guard at all. He thought the state had no further use nor time to fool with the tin horn soldier. Representative Brown declared that the greater part of what is said against the tin horn soldier is said by the tin horn politician. Represen- latives Jones of Pulaski and Whit ting,on of Garland both defended the bill, and on roll call it was passed by good majority.

Would Place Legislators oo Salary

The resolution by Mir. Scrimshire to place members of the legislature on salary of $1 900 term was con sidered at length in the house Mir. Brown offered an amendment cutting the salary down to $750. He argued that at $750 term the member would realize as much as he now gets at s6 on To-day session, and that in his opinion if members were placed on salary the business of the leg. islature would be dispatched more rapidly. His amendment was adopt ed and the resolution sent to the en- crossing committee.

A splendid display of fraternal
feeling was portrayed at the Ouray
city convention last Friday night,
which is indeed a high tribute to
the Colorado B. p. o. r.
Owing to the fact that the meet
ing OF the Elks Grand Lodge is to
be held in that city next fall, to
which several hundred people are
expected, the citizens, both Demo-
Gratis and Republicans, met in a
joint meeting on the above mention
ed date, and nominated by acclima-
ton, DR.. w. w. Rowan, deputy ex-
alted ruler, for mayor of Ouray, in
addition to full city ticket. which
will be the only one in the field.
The occasion is said to have been
most remarkable one, for the
reason that in years gone by there
has been bitter feeling between
the two parties.

baugh VS.. the village of Celina. The
suit was brought by Mr.. Raudabaugh
several years ago, following the fire
which partly destroyed his grist mill
at the foot OF Main street. Rauda-
baugh alleged that his mill caught fire
from sparks from the old Hole and
Fanger mill, several days after that
building was destroyed by fire, and
that his fire was caused by negligence
of the CeiIna fre department. Rauda-
baugh lost out in the Common Pleas
court. In the Circuit court, the judges
could not agree and presiding judge

in favor Of Mr.. Raudabaugh. The ac-
tion Of the Supreme Court only sus-
tains their previous like decisions.
