WONT LET NEGROES
 BE NOTARIES PUBLIC
COUNTY CLERKS REFUSE TO RECORD COMMISSIONS AND
 BLACKS LOSE FEE.

Litte Roc, April 30.-Negroes in Arkansas who hold commissions of notary public are as scarce as par dons nowadays In few of the larg- CT cities the county officials will re- ceive and record commissions issued to negroes, but in East Arkansas a negro is throwing away the $5 he must pay to have commission is sued by the secretary of state, by making application for one.
 A negro in Crittenden county some time ago applied for commission as notary and it was issued, but the county clerk refused to record it. so the commission was returned to the governor with a request that the fee be returned. The only way this can be returned is by legislative act, and there is as much chance for such an act to be passed as there is for ne- gro to be elected governor.
 Several days age a negro in Con- way county, where a large number of white citizens had petitioned for it, was appointed a notary, but the clerk refused to record the commission and he too wanted his money back, but there was nothing doing.
