Hardage Bill Passed in the House and Will Amicablv
 Adjust Primary Fights.
COMMITTEE SUPREn
In All Contests Records of Elections May Be Demanded and
 Turned Over.

Little Rock, Ark, March 15-In tha House today the Hardage bill, provid- ing for the settlement of primary con- test cases, from city to state cleo tions, was passed, giving the state Wlhat it's friends believe to be the most satisfactory solution of the perplexilg Question of election contests
 The bill provides that in all con- tests the contesting candidate must file wi dh the secretary of the central committee having jurisdiction of the election copy of his petition togeth- CT with his reasons for contesting The secretary then is required to put the cOntestee on notice that contest is filed, thereby giving him opportun- ity to file a set-off or counter-claim.
 Tn all contests the contestant is authorized to demand copy of the poll books and all records in connec- tion with the election, from which to compile his data, the original books remaining in the custody of 1he elec- tion, judges Proper provision is made for all answers to be made by the contestees.
 Where the contest is over city of- flee the city central committee of the party holding the election shall have original and final jurisdiction, and where dhe final jurisdiction. and where the contest is between county office candidates, the county central committee is the final court of resort. In the case of district candidates, such as prosecuting attorney, State senators, congressional candidates, etc, the contest will be heard first before the central committee under which the election was held, but ap- peal in such cases may lie to the state central committee, which also has the right to hear originally and finally all contests between candidates for state office. Representatives are classed as county officers for the purposes or the bill.

to the objections made to women vot- ing, the main one being that women
 would lose her influence. She claimed that at the present time wo- man secured influence through her good looks, attainments and other per sonal charms, none of which she would lose by being permitted to vote. She stated that the woman now se- cured no influence through the mere inability of her sex to exercise he right of voting.
 Dispelling 1he plea that the ballot and militarism go hand in hand, Miss Gatling stated this argument could not hold good unless the old men and invalids, unable to give their country military service, were deprived the privilege of going to the polls and voting. AS for the claim that the ballot would soon get into he hands of bad women she stated if was now in the hands of bad men, but as good women predominated, there would be little danger of col fusion of the ballot through her in fluence. Miss Gatling hit the police qualification rap by saying all men who voted are not required to do po- lice duty, and women would hardly be called on for tNat. She stated that it was only a question of time until Arkansas gave woman the right to vote, and as the state is pro- gressive in other lines, it should be in this one, not follower, but leader. Mrs Rutherford, of Nigga zine, started her argument with the statement hat MT. Grant through the introduction of his bill, had made
 himself the most popular man or Arkansas, a compliment which the blushing young Newlywed acknow- ledged beccmingly to the clappfng or hands among his colleagues.

ies WlCn them, ana glad that they selected Pine Bluff as meeting place, that they might "know some. thing about us and the beauties and conveniences of our city" He de- clared that the banking institutions Of this city are all prosperous and in the hands of and piloted by young men. Years ago he said men ,O 30 and 100 years old. were required to successfully run bank, but condi- tions have changed and now the young man is forging to the front among successful financiers. His address met with much applause.
 In his annual address Chairman H. Thane, of Arkansas City, declared that the possibility of the develop- ment and wealth in this immediate territory was beyond estimation. Re- ports from the various banks in south Arkansas show gain of nearly three million dollars in deposits during the past year.
 He urged the bankers, to watch the legislature" and resist the pas sage of bills that would be harmful to the banking interests and the peo- pie as well. He criticised the me- thods of the legislature in creating new state offices and making appro- priations and then resorting to new means of taxation to pay the deficits Of the state He opposed the bill now pending taxing all property at its full value and then reducing the rate of taxation one-half He termed this procedure as "a dose of soothing sy- rup which tastes good at the begin ming, but causes dry faces after wards
 "There is continued addition of new offices and salaries" he said, ''and increase of salaries of existing off ces. This is not part of the con- tinual increase of expenditure of the state government. The charge is made that though the actual wealth of the state is continually increas- ing values for taxation purposes re- main stationary. I can only speak for my county and there taxation val ues have more than doubled in the past ten years. If I can under stand the bank taxation proposed 1t will not only double valuation for banks, but double the taxation.
 Money should not be taxed, if for no reason than because you cannot reach it. Whenever the state devises some plan whereby it can assess and tax money the greater part will leave our vaults and seek hiding places in other states. Mortgages should not be taxed, because it means double taxation.
 Chairman Thames Address.
 Tt is unfortunate that this group at US ldSL uu0oJluS uIu IlOI oCASSt io1 it's chairman some member who had more time to devote to its duties than I have given it or who would have at least taken more time.
 Anxious to show to the world that Southeast Arkansas was prosperous notwithstanding short cotton crop on account of boil weevil and weather conditions I did on Jan. 20th send circular letter to all the banks in the group requesting certain figures to-wit: The paid up capital, sur plus. undivided profits and deposits On Dec. 31st, 1909 and 1910. l should have included in this inquiry loans and discounts but did not discover my omission until some time after- wards.
