Il ton of Lonoke, providing bond issue
of S75O, 900 to take care of the de-
Ificiency. A prominent firm of Little
Rock lawyers this week gave out an
opinion holding that a bond issue is
constitutional, for the state, the inhi-
bition being only against counties and
municipalities, and against the state
"loaning its credit"
This will provide a temporary re-
lief, but it is realized that there must
be constructive legislation aside from
that to take care of the future. To
meet this requirement, special COM
mittee has drafted and introduced
bill providing a system of assessment
and taxation that it is believed will
greatly increase the revenues. This
bill is not so drastic or revolutionary
as the Turner-J acobson bill, repudiat-
ed by the people in 1912, being more
an amplification and decentralization
of existing laws rather the substitu
ton of new laws. These two meas
ures have the hearty support of Gov
ernor Robinson, who advocated them
on the stump, in his inaugural mes
sage and in special messages which
he has sent to the general assembly
urging definite action to meet the
financial requirements of the state. 1t
is believed that the bills will be pass
ed, and so far as they go, vindicate
the position assumed by Governor
Robinson for constructive financial
legislation.
The time is rapidly approaching
when the negative results of the ses-
sion may begin to be tabulated. The
grandfather clause" amendment has
failed of submission; no constitution
al convention will be called; it seems
that no definite action will be taken
toward the preservation of the old
state house; no provision is likely to
be made for the participation of the
state in the San Francisco exposition
in 1915. No radical provision of the,
laws of taxation and assessment is
probable.
The state capitol has cut less of
figure in this session than it has for
10 years. The Caldwell & Drake con-
troversy did not make its appearance
until the fifth week of the session,
when an arbitration bill was introduce
ed in the senate, providing for an in
vestigation of the whole issue between
the state and the former contractors
by the supreme court. Caldwell &
Drake claims the state owes them a
large amount, while the state has
counter-claim that more than bal
ances.
Senator Moore has introduced
bill appropriating nearly half mil
lion dollars from the capitol fund, al
ready in the treasury and being col
lected, for the purpose of completing
and furnishing the building and an
effort will be made to put this
through so that the capitol commits
sion may proceed with its work.
There has been some agitation of the
purchase of the two blocks of ground
in front of the capitol to be added to
the grounds, but no bill has been in
PRODUCED yet for that purpose.
One of the hardest fights yet made
is to secure the enactment of an ade

BOARD OF CHARITIES.

Little Rock, March 3-Now that
he State Board of Charities has been
announced by Governor Robinson, the
question of who will be secretary to
succeed Robt. w. Hart, is interesting
many. O. C. Ludwig, former secre-
tary of state, now member of the
legislature, and one of the campaign
managers for Governor Robinson, ad-
mits he is in receptive mood, and in
mates he has five members of the
board pledged to him for the position.

ouate game protection bill. Several
have been introduced, and all of them
have been sfrowned upon by the COM
mittee. Numerous local protection
bills have been passed, for the protec-
ton of fish, squirrels, quail, ETC., in
various counties, but no general bill
has gotten beyond second reading.
The McIlheny bill, the most careful
ly prepared of them all, has linger-
ing chance of success, since it has
been amended to provide that it shall
be absolutely self-sustaining, and that
no obligations incurred under it shall
be claim against the state. A strong
effort has been made to convince the
members Of the necessity of the de-
partment, but there has been an abid-
ing prejudice on the part of many be-
cause they imagined its only purpose
was to create job for some one.
1t is now almost certain that a
state banking department will be ere
ated. After fight lasting over half
day in the senate, the association
| bill, introduced by Grant of Jackson
and Colvin of Perry, was passed, af-
ter the defeat of the Davis, Baxter bill
which carried the guaranty feature.
| In the senate an effort to amend the
Grant Colvin bill by adding the guar
anty feature was voted down, and the
| bill is in a fair way now for passage
and approval. The effect of the law
will be to standardize banking, pro-
vide for thorough system of inspec-
ton and cut out the wildcat institu-
tons which rob the credulous custom
er, and are a menace to the honest
bankers.
But the guaranty feature will not
down so readily. 1t was defeated by
very close margin in the house.
Former Representative r. S. War
mock of Magnolia, himself president
of bank, is one of the most ardent
advocates of deposits guaranty in the
state. He was present when the Dav-
is-Colvin bill, which is really his own
was defeated, and at once announced
his purpose of taking it to the people
next year under the initiative. He de-
clared that he is determined the PEG
pie shall have a voice in the matter
Last year he initiated the bill with
over $4,000 names, but it was not sub
mitted to the people because the peti
ton was held by the attorney genera
to be defective, as the full text of the
proposed law was not printed on ev
cry sheet in the petition. Not only
does Mr.. Warnock say that he pro
poses to initiate the act again, but hi!
friends are urging him to become {
candidate for governor, so that he
may advocate it on the stump as one
of the principal planks in mis- plat
form. He has taken this under con
sideration.
