DRASTIC MEASUSE GOV-
 ERNING NEWSPAPERS

Little Rock, Feb. 2S.-A bill of the most drastic sort, governing newspapers in Arkansas, was passed in the Senate Thursday afternoon by a vote of Is to F. The bill was introduced by Sen ator Covington Wednesday morn ing, and rushed through without the opposition having a fair show to fight it, or without many of those who voted in it's favor knowing fully it's provisions. The prejudice of many against newspapers in general was mani. fested in the argument, and this told in the vote. Had the friends of the newspapers been given an opportunity to study and analyze the bill for the benefit of those unaquainted with the newspaper business, the result would have probably been different.
 Senator Covington opened and closed for the bill and dram atically told of the abuse the newspapers have heaped upon many people, with no chance to retaliate. He told of the grief It had caused in his own family, without chance to make answer. Senator Greenhouse made very sarcastic speech in which he as serted he was for the newspa- pers. and then voted for the pas sage of the bill. Senators Jacob son and Calvert were the defend CTS of the press, while Senator Carl.Lee supported the bill.
 The Covington bill gives per sons whose reputation has been injured by publication, treble damages. It forces the editor to print a retraction of any arti-

Lee, were taken to Lexington, his old home, for bur ial.
 Not only Prescott and Nevada County, but the the State of Arkansas, should feel proud to call this young man her son.

FINDING OF DEAD BODY
CLEARS UP DISAPPEARANCE

The finding of the dead body Of
William Jackoli, a Finnish woods
man, near the tracks of logging
railroad in the vicinity of Camp %,
about 43 miles above Cussons. by
train crew last Sunday clears up
mystery connected with the disap-
pearance late in May of Jackoli.
Woodsmen secured the countryside
in search for him for a week fol.
lowing his disappearance, and final
ly gave up. They held to the theo-
ny that he had walked out of the
country, or had become lost in the
heavily timbered country to the
north. Jackoli was undoubtedly a
victim of heart failure. He had
complained of not feeling we'll for
some weeks prior to his disappear
ance. He left the camp one morn
ing during the last days of May and
his fate was unknown. until the
body was found. The remains were
brought to this city and the funeral
was held from Gillespie's undertak
ing parlors Tuesday. Jackoli was
a single man and had no relatives
in this section.
