HOLDS LOCAL ACTS
CAN'T BE INITIATED
SUPREMECOURT DECISION
Is INTERPRETED BY NORWOOD
TO BAR ALL COUNTY /.
AND r. BILLS.

Little Rock, July 1.-THE legisla.
ture cannot, in my opinion, and in
view of the decision handed down by
the supreme court last Monday, con-
fer upon county authority to mi
tiate a law Independent of the legis-
lature.
Furthermore, the only way a
county can initiate law under the /
and r. amendment is to secure on its
petition 10 per cent Of the total vote
cast for governor in the entire state,
and not in the county affected"
This is the opinion that has been
given out by Attorney General Nor
wood, invalidating every local meas
ure proposed under the amendment,
as well as those declared invalid un-
der the direct decision of the su-
preme court. 1t follows that not one
of the proposed cast can be voted on,
except the statewide measures.
Since the, decision Of the supreme
court Monday, it had been thought
that some Of the proposed county
laws, not being in conflict with any
state law, might be submitted to the
people, but the hopes of their pro-
motors are blasted by General Nor
woods decision. The measures af-
fected are:
To exempt Sharp county and that
part Of Independence county north of
White river from the operations of
the tick law of 1911.
To place the officers of Clark and
Pope counties on a salary.
For fence laws in Conway and Lo-
noke counties.
To permit the sale of liquor in
Camden.
To abolish district court in Prairie
county.
The state will lose nothing by rea-
son of the publication Of those pro-
posed acts, as bond had been given
to cover the cost, or certificates of
publishers filed relieving the state
from cost if the acts were declared
invalid. The tick law, the fence laws
and the Prairie county court law, or
iginally thought to be within the
meaning Of the amendment, are now
held invalid. The cost of publication
Of these is about $25 each, and Secre-
tary of State Hodges says if the leg
'islature does not allow the claims he
will pay them himself

SHOOTER" SUSPECT
DIES OF INJURIES
L. H. KEELING SUCCUMBS ON
CONVICT FARM-WIDOW is
AT WOOSTER.

Little Rock, July 12.-After hav-
ing served three weeks on the county
farm, L. H. Keeling, the first suspect
arrested in Little Rock as "Jack the
Shooter" died in the field at Camp
Asher at 1870 o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon of sunstroke.
When arraigned on a charge of en-
ter:ng the residence Of Mrs. C. r.
Smith, 819 West Sixth street, Keel
ing was exonerated, but a short time
later he was arrested on charge of
disturbing the peace. This time he
was tried by jury in Justice of the
Peace D. Meisner's court and, on
June IS, was fined IS and costs. He
still had % days Of the sentence to
serve.
DR.. E. E. Hodges attended Keel
ing yesterday, but the man died soon
after having been overcome. The
body was taken to Healey & Roth S
morgue, where it was viewed by Cor
oner Martin Mcneil.
The dead man was % years old
and is survived by widow, who re-
sides at Wooster, in Faulkner county,
and an uncle, J. c. Keeling of Hous-
ton, Ark. He was a member of the
Knights of the Maccabees at Benton,
the Modern Woodmen of America at
Houston, Ark, and the Odd Fellows
at Perryville. Funeral arrangements
had not been completed last night,
pending instructions from the rela-
tives.

SCHOOL DISTRICTS have
SURPLUS OF SI,5O0.00
INCREASING AMOUNT OF UN-
USED FUNDS IS A PROBLEM
TO EDUCATORS.

Little Rock, July 12.-According to
reports in the state department of
education, there is surplus in the
school funds of the various districts
of the state of about 81, 500, 900, of
which one million dollars is in the
common school districts. This sur
plus has been increasing annually for
the whole state, at the rate of about
$50, 900 a year. How to bring about
a reduction in this balance, so that
all funds may be used for the main
tenance and extension of the schools,
is one of the problems confronting
the department.
How the balance grows is shown
by the report Of six counties on the
amounts received and expended for
the last year: Mississippi, $685.
1881 received, $77,373.85 expended;
Marion, $34,770O5 received, $751;
293.79 expended; Garland, $1O4,-
669.26 received, $97,965.95 expended;
Johnson, $5O,579.42 received, $751;
1857 expended; Chicot, $54,582 re-
ceived, $43,2O4.76 expended.

Dolls Always Known.

History fails to tell us the inventor
of the doll, which has been such a
boon to mankind. not only in quieting
the rowdy youngster, but in stimulat-
ing healthy Imagination and affec-
ton. Five hundred years before
Christ little girls had dolls; there is
sure evidence of 1t, and Edward Low
vett, an enthusiastic collector, has a
doll from those dim ages. 1t is little
more than battered stick now, but
is Enthusiastically a doll. No one could
name a fair value for such a prize,
which stands out as a proof that the
child of today Is singularly like her
little sister some twenty-five hundred
years sgo.-Dundee Advertiser.

hold of the situation and he is vigor-
ously pushing the work of organiza-
ton and publicity. The faculty are

unanimous vote, approved the action
of the board in selecting Prof. Rey-
nolds and pledged him their loyal
support. A number Of committees
have been appointed and practically
the entire faculty is busy in the work

|. & R. LIMITED
TO STATE LAWS
DON'T EXTEND TO CITIES
ATTORNEY GENERAL MAKES
RULING FURTHER CURTAIL-
ING NEW PRINCIPLE.

Little Rock, July 12.-In an official
opinion given Secretary of State
Hodges, Attorney General Norwood
confirms the newspaper report that
he does mot think that part of the
enabling act attempting to provide
the manner of initiating laws by
counties and municipalities is valid"
He says further:
ut was clearly the intention of the
legislature to provide the manner of
putting into effect powers that it
thought had been conferred upon mu-
inequalities by the adoption of amend
ment No. 10. 1t was not the inten-
ton of the legislature to confer any
new or additional legislative power
upon the people of municipalities, but
merely to provide a method of exer-
cising the power that it thought the
people had conferred.
''That part of the enabling act in
reference to municipalities is so in
volved with that part in reference to
counties, which l think is unconstitu-
tional, that even if the enabling act
had passed, independently of any
constitutional amendment, l do not
see how the unconstitutional part of
the act could be separated and elimi-
mated from the constitutional part, or
how it could be determined that the
legislature would have passed the act,
if parts had been eliminated.
81 would, therefore, advise you not
to certify out any measure to be vot-
ed on at any election, except upon a
petition signed by eight per cent of
the qualified electors of the whole
state"
