FELseNTHAL PLAN.

From Adolph Felsenthal. at Cam den, is being agltated oae of the most sane and sensible proposals for the betterment of governmental affairs in Arkansas that has been suggested for many years
 In brief. 1t is that local legislation as presented to the general assembly each term. be referred to the county quorum courts for enactment
 The county quorum court is com posed Of the county judge and the justices of the peace, selected as they are from every political township in the county.
 The body is already Q legislative body in a measure since 1t passes on the big appropriations, makes the county tax levy. and has general su- peryision of the county affairs.
 If this new responsibility were placed with the county quorum court is standard Of membership would, of course, be materially changed.
 Local Legislation has ourdened our statutes. There are hundreds of laws cn the statutes which have no effect outside one locality This legislation local as 1t may be. has cost the state hundreds of thousands of dollars.
 Mir. Felsenthal calls attention to the fact that if all local measures were referred to the county quorum court from the legislature, the legis lative body would feel its standards raised from the 'hog" laws, and -four wire fences" to affairs of statehood A 6(Aday session would be sufficient for actual statewide legislation.
 The Felsenthal plan Is worthy of much deep study, and consideration Under the proposed pls.a. all local affairs would be discussed more wide. ly at home. the people who vote would understand the policies of the eandl- dates. and home rule would absolnte- ly prevail.
 In reference to his plan, Mr. Felsea. thai says in conclusion:
 Tt will improve the public service by raising the standard Of the local justices: with added responsibilities. more attention will be paid to the SC. lectioa of these officers: and natural ly, better pay for theHa officers wiil follow for better services.
 "It will give our state legislators tasks more nearly approaching those of the national congress in honor, weight and dignity, being confined 10 state and not to local issues. This and the shorter session make an ap, peal to the service Of the patriotic, the ambitious and the capable citizen far superior to the present citizen.
 The framers of our state consti- tution-composed as they were of the best blood and citizenship of Arkan. sas; tempered 10 the keenness Of a Damascus blade by the trials of the war and of the reconstruction period which followed il; men Of strong principle and earnest judicious thought -endeavored to place every safe. guard around the legislature to pre- vent strictly local legislation except when absolutely necessary.
 "A gradual departure from these safeguards has brought upon the state our present trouble Of 0yermuch local legislation
 "A return to the right road by TF= ferring local legislation to the local body and statewide legislation only to the state legislature will open up broad highway upon which the state can sanely and safely travel to a freer. higher and nobler future"

DIBRELL'S CHARGE
FALSE, GALLOWAY
REPRESENTATIVE SAYS HE DID
NOT OPPOSE INCREASE IN
SOLDIERS PENSION.

Replying to the recent letter of
Comptroller Dibrell to the effect that
he had fought an increase in the PEN
sions of the old Confederate soldiers,
Representative Galloway said today:
The charge by Dibrell that work
ed against the pension bill introduce
ed by Cox and Worley until saw It
would pass and then voted for 1t is
untrue, in that it makes the impress
sion that was opposed to the appro-
priation. This is not true and Dibrell
knows it. ! supported the pension
bill recommended by the state Con-
federate organization and the differ
ence was not in amount but in the d.
vision OF the pension money, claiming
that it should not give every pension
er 500 but that some could do on less
and therefore more soldiers could be
provided for.

PRINCETON, N. J., Nov. 4.-Gov.
woodrow Wilson is wearing narrow
strip of collodion across the top of
his head, covering scalp wound
three inches long, which he received
in a motor car mishap on the way
home from Red Bank, N. ]. His au-
tomobile struck mound in the road
and jolted him up against steel rib
in the roof of the limousine car. The
wound is not serious and the demo-

ing engagements in Patterson and
Passaic, NJ j., and attend to his cor
respondence as usual.
Last night the governor was in the
parlor Of his home, the center OF a
group of friends There was nothing
in his manner to indicate he had met
with a mishap. He said he did not
feel the wound in the slightest de-
gree, and had not even developed q
headache frsm 1t.
