MEASURES TO Bt
VOTED ON MONDAY


The attention Of our readers is
again called to the different acts and
measures TO be submitted TO the
voters for their approval or rejec-
ton in the general election next
Monday. They will appear on the
ballots by number and many voters
say they will not be able to vote in
telligently unless some explanation
of each number be given. We sub
NIT herewith each act, together with
a brief explanation Of the same:
Act No. /. This is known as
the Turner-Jacobsou revenue bill,
having for ITS purpose the equaliza-
ton of taxes, or of raising the as
sessment of all taxable property and
lowering the rate. The bill has
many good features aud some
that are not desirable. Better read
it all before you vote for it. You
will find it posted at your voting
precinct.
Act No. 2. This is the State
wide prohibition bill. 1t would
urobibit the manufacture, sale or
giving away in Arkansas Of alcohol
or spirituous, ardent malt, or vinous
or fermented liquors Of any COM
pound or extracts thereof common
ly called tones, bitters or medicated
liquors.
Act No. 3. Would in effect
change the election laws so that the
state Board of Election Commis'
sioners would be required TO APP
point Tor each county two Demo
cratic and one Republican commis'
sioner, to be chosen from lists sub
mitted by the chairmen of the state
committees of the two leading par
ties. In practice the State Board
would appoint two Democrats from
the Inst furnished by the Democrat
ic chairman and one Republican
from the list furnished by the Re-
publican chairman. The county
commissioners would meet the
second Monday in August and ap-
point three judges for each precinct.
The judges would have to be select
ed from lists furnished 10y the chair
man of the county committees of
the Democratic and Republican par
ties.
This act should be voted down,
as our present election laws are
much better than they would be un.
der this act.
Act No. Would provide for
a text Book Commission and for
% uniform text books. The commits
sion could buy books from publish
ers or have them prepared and
printed at a state printing plant
when such pant should be estab-
llshed by law. Would appropriate
$40, 900 for the expenses of the com.
mission for two years.
