The log cabin Democrat. [volume] (Conway, Ark.) 1901-1982, 1912-07-11

Mr.. Brown is earnestly and vigor-
ously opposed. The first two are bills
referred to the people to be voted up
on in September and the last is law
which has been on the statute books
for several years.
| It would seem that there was tit
tie need for protest by the enemies of
the measures against either the To.
bill or the prohibition bill, as it IS
generally conceded that the people
went on record against the former N
the March primaries and the cam
paign in favor of the latter has al
ready been abandoned by the Anti
Saloon League, under whose auspices
! it was initiated.
But, evidently fearing least the
circulation of million copies of the
new revenue law in county papers
throughout the state might cause a
reversion of public sentiment in its
favor, and lest the prohibition work
ers might be playing 'possum" to
prevent activities by the opposition
and silently carry their bill, Secre-
tary Brown created and called into
being the ARKANSAS Advancement
! Association" to prevent the passage
of either. The repeal of the anti
future law, which has been a thorn
in Mr. Browns side ever since it's
passage, was also made one of the is
sues to be taken up. Strange to say,
the bill to legalize raee-track gam
bling at Hot Springs was not iucor-
porated in the ''call."
But the purpose of the meeting
was too apparent and the methods of
the promoters too clumsy for it to
make much Roadway The Little Rock
papers and newspaper correspond
ents commented on the ''large and
representative attendance but the
vote on the resolution which broke up
the meeting-30 to 5-gives an in
sight into the real attendance.
When the program was published
and it was seen that only one side of
these three questions was to be pre-
scented, efforts were made by George
Thornburgh, president of the Anti
Saloon League, to have the prohibit
ton side of the question represented,
but Mr.. Thornburgh was informed
by Mr. Brown that the program was
already made up and could not be al
tered.
The program, however, was alter
ed cons: derably when G.. w. Garrett
of Okolona introduced resolution
protesting against the preparation of
a partisan program dealing with
campaign issues and pledging the as
ISOLATION to take a non-partisan
stand on all political issues. This
was exactly what the Advancement"
promoters did not want, and when
they saw the thin disguise of the
meeting had been so easily penetrat-
ed, Chairman Blackwood declared the
session adjourned sine die, before thu
resolutions committee ever had a
chance to present the elaborate list Of
whereases' and be it resolveds which
they had drafted.

: Little Rock, July 8.-There is no
Joker" in amendment No. 10 to the
constitution of Arkansas, adopted in
September, 1910, and providing for
legislation by means of the initiative
and the referendum. This contention
! was settled in decision handed down
! by the supreme court of the state to-
day in five consolidated cases taken
up from the circuit court of Pulaski
county.
The higher tribunal completely re-
versed the decision of Judge Guy
Fulk in the lower court, and held
that the five measures sought to be
initiated were inconsistent with the
provisions both of amendment No. 10
and the enabling act putting it INTO
effect.
The words, leach municipality
and leach county," the court says in
its decision, were inaptly thrust into
the text of the amendment "in way
that expresses nothing"
| The five cases taken up were the
Dallas and Montgomery county seat
removal cases, the Garland county
horse-racing bill, the Little Rock
Sunday baseball bill and the Sebas-
tian county salary bill. All of these
bills sought to be initiated were local
acts inconsistent with and contrary
| to the general laws of the state, and
the court held that they cannot be
submitted to the voters of the re-
spective localities in which it was at
tempted to initiate them.
The statewide prohibition bill, the
submission of which was sought to be
stopped by those who had initiated it,
was not decided by the court today.
The question decided by the su-
preme court today is one of far
reaching Importance to the state.
During the campaign for the adop-
ton of the l. and R. amendment the
enemies of the proposition bitterly
assailed it on the ground that it con-
tanned "joker" which would permit
municipalities and counties to set
aside state laws and would create a
condition of legislative anarchy. This
opinion of the amendment was con-
Cured in by Judge U. NJ Rose and a
large number of attorneys through
out the state.
! Despite this view of the measure
Governor Donaghey espoused its
cause and at his invitation William
J. Bryan came to the defense of the
amendment. A special train was en-
gagged and the Nebraskan made a
whirlwind campaign Of the state in
favor of the amendment, just prior to
the election. The result was the
amendment was overwhelmingly
adopted.
Still contending that municipalities
and counties had under the amend
ment the right to enact laws incon-
sistent with the general acts, citizens
of Garland county undertook to mi
tiate bill permitting and legalizing
horse racing in that county. Citizens

A certain small girl, YEARLY lis
tening to a long sermon by a re-
moved clergyman who had an odd
habit Of drawing in his breath with
a curious whistle, whispered to her
mother that she wanted to go home.
The mother, expecting the discourse
to end momentarily, refused per-
mission. The third time this hap
pened the mother murmured in the
child's ear that the preacher would
soon stop now But the child,
nervous and despairing, answered
her in high falsetto:
No, mother he is not going to
stop. ! thought so now for three
times, but he has gone and blowed
himself up again."

ABOUT ADVERTISING.

No merchant ever built up a great
business who did not call to his
aid all the advantages Of publicity
through the advertising columns of
the newspapers. 1t is very true
that a small business can be car
ried on without advertising and a
man may make a living out OF it..
but he will always be negligible

profit is the unearned increment

Where you find the newspapers
crowded with advertisements there
you will find a prosperous and
thriving community One Of the
hest tests for a home-seeker to
apply IS to sean the advertising

A law passed last winter. and is
embraced in the new code. is at
present working hardship on
those who are commonly known
as "fends. Every community in
the state has its share of drug

towns, has share of the unfor-
Inmates who have given way to
the drug habit and are regarded
as incurable fends, who would
mortgage their souls for another
shot II such a transaction was
possible. To this class the new
law Is a hardship, as it keeps
them on the move to get the quota
of the drug necessary to carry
on their life's stimulant. saws the
Carson Appeal The act as passed
last winter regulates the sale of
opium, morphine, alkaloid-coeaine,

the above drugs. In order TO gain
any of the drugs a physicians pre-
