practically out of commission. The
lines of this city were damaged but
slightly.
Street Lights Go Out.
Two circuits Of the street lighting
system Of the Municipal plant were
burned out. One was the circuit south
Of Main street and another was one
OF the Main street circuits. However.
Nimrod johnson. superintendent of the
city plant, deemed 1t best to turn all
Of the street circuits out, fearing that
bis wires would become tangled with
wires of other companies and that
worse damage might result in case the
Ogher circuits were not turned out.
Supt. johnson stated this morning that
the damage to the city plant would
amount to about 500.
After the city street lights were
turned ont pedestrians were afraid to
walk on the sidewalks because of the
number Of limbs which were falling.
Limbs OF trees nearly foot in diam,
eter fell on the sidewalks. Several
persons reported narrow escapes from
being struck as they walked under the
bending trees when the limbs snapped.
The fallen limbs were the real cause
for such q large number of wires be-
ing broken.
In some parts of the city the ice
covered limbs were broken off 80
rapidly that residents declared 1t
sounded 40 II bombardment was TAX
ing place. In the South Tenth Street
park many Of the best trees were
ruined. A large number of limbs were
broken from the trees In Glen park
and smaller parks also.
The rain began about o'clock in
the afternoon and fell in sheets for
several hours. At that time the tenn.
perature lowered near the freezing
mark, but shortly after began to 90 up.

speech of the campaign for the Presi-
dental nomination Colonel Roosevelt
last night contrasted his position with
that taken by President Taft. The real
issue, he said, was whether the Amer
lean people should govern themselves.
Colonel Roosevelt's speech was de-
livered before q crowd which filled
Carnegie Hall. So many persons wish
ed to hear him that an overflow meet
ing was held in a smaller hall within
the same building. The street in front
or the hall contained a throng Of per
sons who were unable to gain <admis-
sion to either meeting. Colonel Roose-
welt was received with marked enthu-
siasm.
President Taft's recent speech at To-
ledo was referred to several times by
Mr.. Roosevelt. who devoted a large
part of his remarks to a reply:
''Mr. Taft again and again, in quo
tations l have given and elsewhere
through his speech" said Colonel
Roosevelt, expresses his disbelief in
the people when they vote at the
polls"
He asserts that the Presidents po-
sition was that I'VE have in this coun-
try a special class of persons, wiser
than the people, who are above the
people, who cannot be reached by the
people, but who govern them and
; ought to govern them" Colonel Roose-
welt said that this was 1.-The old, old
doctrine which has tended to Gre
ate bulwark for special privilege"
Right Of the People.
This doctrine is to me a dreadful
doctrine" said the speaker. "for it's ef
feet is, and can only be. to make the
Courts the shield of privilege against
popular rights"
The speaker said in part:
Il believe in the right of the people
! to rule. l believe that the majority OF
/ the plain people of the United States
will, day in and day out, make fewer
mistakes in governing themselves thar
any smaller class or body of men, nc
matter what their training, will make
in trying to govern them. believe
again. that the American people are
as a whole, capable of self-coptrol ant
of learning by their mistakes. Our op
ponents pay hp-loyalty to this doc
trine; but they show their real beliefs
by the way in which they champion
every device to make the nominal rult
Of the people a sham.
II have scant patience with this tall
of the tyranny of the majority. When
ever there is tyranny of the majorit!
l shall protest against it with all m!
heart and soul. But We are today sui
fering from the tyranny of minorities
1t is a small minority that is grabbin,
our coal deposits, our water power
and our harbor fronts. A small minor
ity is fattening on the sale of adulter
ated foods and drugs.
1T is a small minority that stand
behind monopolies and trusts. it is
small minority that stands behind tn
present law of master and servant, tn
sweat shops and the whole calenda
of social and industrial injustice. 1t
} a small minority that il today usin
our convention system to defeat tn
will of the majority of the people i
the choice of delegates to the Chicag
convention. The only tyrannies froI
which men, women and children ar
suffering in real life are the tyrannie
OF minorities.

Is PLEASED WITH
DECISION OF FULK
GOVERNOR GIVES VIEWS
SAYS CALDWELL e. DRAKE OWE
STATE INSTEAD OF THE
REVERSE.

Little Rock, Nov. 5.-When asked
for statement regarding the capitol
commission suit in which Judge GUY
Fulk of Pulaski circuit court yester-
day sustained the demurrer interpos-
ed by the commissioners, Governor G..
w. Donaghey, H l.. Remmel, Chas.
l.. Thompson, Il. F. Foster and John
/. Moore, Governor Donaghey said:
Il cannot conceive W they ever
brought the suit against the commits
sion individually, when, as a matter
of fact, the whole transaction grew
out of the states business and the
commission was only acting for the
state. II 4 state officer could be held
liable for has acts when complying
with the statutes in the conduct of
the states business, | imagine it
would be a very long time before they
could get any one to act, for no one
would be willing to act if he were liza
bic, for damages for complying with
the state laws and in the perform
ance of his sworn duties and obliga-
tions. | am utterly unable to see
wherein a lawyer who is conversant
with the constitution and laws of the
state could expect to secure judg-
ment by bringing such suit. The
capitol commission only did its dutv
in taking possession of the state cap
ltol and grounds, and carrying out
their instructions given by the legis-
lature by completing the building.
The state of Arkansas does not
owe Caldwell & Drake one cent. but
on the contrary, Caldwell & Drake
are justly indebted to the state
When the legislature assembled in
1909, my understanding was that
they claimed only about $4,000, and
that was merely a claim.
Il have been informed that there is
q disposition to make an investigation
of the construction of the building
under the present commission. | wei
come any fair investigation, as chair
man of the commission, not an inves-
tigation by men seeking some political
advantage, but an investigation BY
fair-minded men who will develop and
disclose the actual facts as they are. :"
