Little Rock, March 19.-The Ark
ansas Capitol Commission, in its ses-
Moore of Helena as permanent chair
man of the board. Ex-Gov Geo. w.
Donaghey was chairman of the COM
mission during his term of office, but
as the governor is not ex-officio chair
man, and as governors now change so
rapidly in Arkansas, it would incon-
yenience the commission to elect at
practically every meeting a new chair
man, if governors alone were to be Sc
lected. 1t was decided to make Sena-
tor Moore the permanent head of the
commission and settle the matter. The
commission allowed claims on the de-
ficiency appropriation, amounting to
about 10000 and adjourned to meet
again the first of the month, when the
question of completing the building
will be gone into extensively.

OLDHAM IS THE
LEGITIMATE GOV.
JUDGE FULK'S DECISION
PRO TEN FUTRELL
SAYS HE WILL FIGHT TO THE
LAST DITCH.

Little Rock, March Ex-senator W.
K. Oldham of Lonoke won first blood
yesterday in the gubernatorial contest
between himself and Senator J. NJ. Flu
trell of Greene county. Custer and
mandamus proceedings were filed
against Mr.. Oldham by Mr.. Futrell in
the Pulaski circuit court yesterday af-
ternoon and in both instances Judge
Fulk held that Oldham was the legal
governor of Arkansas. Both cases
were submitted, the custer proceed
ings being taken up first In this case
Senator Futrell had pleaded that Sen.
ator Oldham is holding the seat as act
ing governor without right or title and
asked that he be ousted therefrom by
rider of the court. ~
To this complaint counsel for Sena-
tor Oldham entered demurrer, stat
ing that the complaint did not state
facts sufficient for a cause of action,
and this demurrer was sustained by
Judge Fulk. The mandamus case was
predicated on the refusal of Secretary
of State Hodges to issue commission
to w. S. Mitchell who had been ap-
pointed a notary public by Mr.. Futrell.
The complaint was demurred to on the
ground that the court had already sus-
tanned Senator Oldham as the rightful
governor by his decision in the custer
suit just preceding. This contention
was sustained by the court.
The cases were appealed to the SUI
preme court, where a motion will be
made Monday to advance on the dock
ct, final decision being expected one
week later. The proceedings in the
|circuit court yesterday were merely
formal in order to have the matter ad-
Indicated in the supreme courts at as
early date as possible.
Senator Futrell in his first petition
stated that he demanded the Office of
governor, which under the law is pass
ed to him, but possession was refused,
Gov. Oldham stating that he had been
informed by the attorney general he
could hold the position. President Pro
Tenn Futrell further states he is emit
tied to the office, and it is being held
without authority of the law, the pow
er of the court being prayed for re-
lief.
Before leaving for Paragould last
night to attend a sick brother, Senator
Futrell gave out the following state
ment:
| "This matter must be settled in a
peaceable way, for the time for force
has passed. There have been hot
heads call on me, and members of the
general assembly, too, and offered tt
take the office for me by force. Such
talk is nonsense. The courts can set
tie the question in short time, and
will obey the mandates of the court.
owe it to the people who elected me
president pro tenn of the senate t
fight for the office to the last ditch, ant
lit will never be said they elected ;
man who did not have the bockbone t.
do it."

1t has been discovered that Churchill
made test case OF keeping his res
taurant open as late as his patrons
wished to stay. Some OF the alI-night
men have had their attention drawn to
the fact that Magistrate Freschi de-
cided that Churchill might serve his
patrons at the table as late as they
cared 10 stay.
Now. then. they say. it's up TO some
body to make test case OF Mayor
Gaynor's edict. The all-night men are
sure they can beat II, that they can
continue their cabaret so long as the
patrons care to remain. But!
Who is going to watch a cabaret
show into the early hours VI the morn
ing without getting drink? How
many care to dance all night without
the stimulus OF highball or a sip OF
champagne? Very few people in this
New York stay up all night to eat and
dance. And So. what will the answer
be?
Nobody among the all-night men has
yet volunteered to stand a test case on
the cabarets.
And so. at ] o'clock on next Tuesday
