The Green Forest tribune., 1911-05-26

Senator Lorimer was bitterly ar raigned in speech by Senator Lori mer, who declared that Lorimer's ev- cry action proved he knew money was being used to procure his cleo tion. 'Is there another senator against whom such an imputation could have been made who would not have risen in his seat and demanded an inquiry?" he asked. Gan you conceive of any man holding such q trust as seat in the senate who could sit here for weeks and months after his title had been inlpeached without saying something?'
 For three weeks, MT. LaFollette declared, the Illinois senator had ah- solutely sat silent-"the only member of the senate who apparently had not writhed under public criticism?"
 He attributed the senate's failure tc act to a false sense of courtesy, with which, he said, system $ yelled and cloaled resulting in the representa- tive branch of the government beng undermined.

A YOUNG MAN
 SLAYS HIS FATHER
w. M. HUNTER DECLARES HIS IN. TENTION OF "CLEANlNG OUT"
 HIS HOUSEHOLD.
He Is Shot and lnsta ntIy Killed by His Son, Who Enters Plea of
 Self-Defense.

TeXarkana-W. M Hunter, aged 5G, was shot and instantly killed at bis home or the California planta- tion, 35 miles southeast of here, on hed river, by his son, Will Hunter, aged 19
 The deceased and his wife had not lived peaceably together, it is Said, for the last two or three years, and several months ago he moved off the place, remaining away for a period Of several weeks. The children, of whom there are eight, took the part Of their mother and remained with her on the plantation.
 A few nights ago the deceased re- turned home, as he had been doing at intervals recently, and spent the night in his room. He had a shotgun with him and the next morning started in to raise a disturbance, declaring he was going to clean out the entire family. Will Hunter had a Winches- ter shotgun, but did not use it until his fathers movements became such as, in his opinion, to mean death to himself and other members of the family. He then shot his father, fir ing one charge of buckshot, which, taking effect just above the left ear blew the top of his head off Young Hunter surrendered himself imme- diately after the shooting, declaring to the officers that he fired in self defense.

PEACE AGREEMENT IS SIGNED
Government and Insurrecto Represen-
 tatives Meet at Juarez.

Government and Insurrecto Represen-
 tatives Meet at Juarez.
 Juarez, Extraordinarily desig- hated representatives of the Mexican. government and revolutionists signed a peace agreement here, intended to end the hostilities that have been waged in Mexico for the last six months. Though covering only the principal points negotiated thus far, the agreement practically records the concessions by the government of those demands which started, on No vember 20, last, armed revolution in Mexico. Telegrams announcing the signing of the agreement were dis. patched throughout Mexico to revolu- tionary and federal leaders alike.
 Constitutional restrictions prevent ed the inclusion in the agreement of the fact that the rebels will be per mitted to suggest to various state leg islatures the names of provisional governors and likewise the fact that six of the eight members of the new cabinet have been chosen by the rev olutionists, but the agreement records that President Diaz and Vice Presi- dent Corral will resign and that the government is to concentrate it's at tention on desired reforms.

LAWMAKERS MEET
 IN EXTRA SESSION
GOVERNOR DONAetiEY SENDS 4 MESSAGE TO THE EXTRA
 SESSiCN.
Urges Legislators to Revise the Rev cnue Laws Without Discord,
 Bitterness or Strife.

Little Reek.-The senate and house convened in extraordinary session Monday, as per call of Governor Don aghey. In the senate, the expected fight between Toney and Rodgers as to who shoald preside failed to mate rialize, Senator Rodgers withdrawing, and Senator Toney resumed his seat as president. No business was trans acted by either branch of the legisla- ture, the time being consumed in lis tening to Governor Donaghey's mes. sage, in which he urged the members of the legislature to revise the rev. enue laws and attend to the otEor business in hand without discord, strife or bitterness.
 Briefly, the main features of the message are as follows:
 The state has already collected and spent $225,000 which is not payable into the treasury until July 1, 1911; has borrowed $90,000 from the sink ing fund and has outstanding obliga- tions of about S250,000
 Appropriations at regular session were $400,000 in excess of the ap- propriations by any other Arkansas general assembly. The present def icit in the states accounts is about S850,000.
 Appropriations at the session just closed were about s2,750,000; states receipts last year, $97S,S04.
 Two years from now, unless the revenue laws are revised, the states deficit will be about $1,500,0O0.
 Revision Of revenue laws is neces- sary to equalize taxation and raise more revenue.
 The present appropriations must be reduced.
 The convict lease system should be abolished. Some convicts should be worked on state farm and others on roads
 A board of control for the peniten- tiary, consisting of three members to be appointed by the governor, should be created.
 Provision for the removal of the supreme court and office of state treasurer to the new statehouse should be made.
 An act setting out in detail the manner of putting Amendment No. 10 into practical use should be passed.
 Submits report of Judge Hill, chiet counsel in rate cases, and recom- mends appropriation of S12,500 to pay cost of appeal and appropriation of S2,500 to pay balance due states accountants.

Washington, D. C.-An immediate investigation of sweeping scope of the renewed charges that Senator Lori mer of Illinois is not entitled to his seat is provided for in two resolu- tjons by Senators Lafollette and Dill lingham.

A MONUMENT DESIGN

Arkansas Division Memorial Commit
 tee Fails to Make Selection.
 Little Rock.-A meeting of the memorial committee of the Arkansas division was held here to select monument to be placed on the grounds of the new state capitol. The Arkan- sas legislature has appropriated $10,- 900 for this purpose, and the puT- chase and erection of a memorial to the Confederate women is in the hands of the state committee.
 Gen. c. Irvine Walker, who is chairman of the general memorial committee of the South, said: 1t should be distinctly understood that the work of selecting these monu- ments by the state committees of the various Southern states should be done in cooperation with the general committee of the United Confederate Veterans Of the South. This general committee has recommended that there be uniformity of design for the monuments which nearly all of the Southern states are erecting to the Confederate women"
 Designs were submitted by Miss Belle Kinney, who exhibited bronze model of her work, and F. W. Ruck- stuhl, whose work was displayed by photographs in the hands of Judge c B. Rose of Little Rock. No decis- ion as to the acceptance of either de- sign was made, however, as two mem- bers of the committee were absent, and the selection will be made at some later meeting of the committee.
