New Feature Of Old Plan,


Down in Maine there is a little
town by the name of Fort Kent which
found itself in debt to the tune of
$4,000 three years ago. The town
raised but $4,000 a year in taxes
and felt that something was wrong as
the deficit has takon but a few years
to accumulate.
One Jean o. Michaud was asked
to take the chairmanship Of the board
Of selectmen and try to get the town
out Of debt. He, however, refused
to take it unless they would elect
him as we'll to the position of road
commissioner, overseer OF the poor,
school commissioner and whatever
other administrative Offices the town
charter called for. His proposition
was accepted, and he was elected to
these various offices, the only other
two officers of Importance in the
town being the two selectmen who
worked with him.
At the end Of two years time the
town was entirely out of debt and
this year it expects to have some
surplus to put into permanent i'm
provements, this all being done with
out raising any more taxes than for
merly. The success was due to bet
ter management and closer supervis-
lon Of expenditures.
The principal involved in the elect
ing of Michaud to all the important
offices is the same as that involved
In the commission form of govern
ment, namely, the fixing of respon-
sibtlity. Michaud was responsible
tor the affairs of Fort Kent and he
had to make good. The commission
form OF government is slowly gain
Ing ground and it is worthy of no.
t1ce that where the plan has once
been tried, there has been no return
to the old form.

has been put over until Feb. 20 for
action In the senate. 1t appears that
the state railroad and warehouse
commission has been asked to furn-

the railroads and the public will get

Little Rock, March 25.-Quite a few persons who have received commits sions from Asting Governor Oldham, fearing they are of no value since the Supreme Court decision which made Acting Governor Futrell the ri3htftll occupant of the office, have requested new commissions and they have been issued. Acting Governor Futrell states he lAill not question any of the acts of Acting Governor Oldham, and if there is any legal question in the appointments CT pardons, they must be taken to court by the interested persons. Should a prosecuting attor- ney be dissatisfied with pardon granted, or other official action pre- taining to the legal affairs of his district, he may take the matter into court, but Acting Governor Futrell will not assist unless appealed to him. The new Acting Governor feels it best to let the past rest and devote his time to building up Arkansas in- stead of building up strife.

Break ing into or stealing any part of the contents of a piece of baggage also comes under the provisions of the act. which applies with equal force to any person who shall buy. receive or have in possession any freight. express. baggage or other goods or chattels so stolen, knowing the same to be stolen. The punishment for any of these of- lenses is a fine up to five thousand dollars or Imprisonment up to ten years. or both. and prosecutions may be instituted in any district where the crime shall have been committed

 The making Of these acts federal offeEses, together with the severity of the punishment provided, is ex- pected to prevent mueh crime of this character, as all offenders have a wholesome fear of United States courts and the promptness and cer- tainty with which they mete out punishment.

Lebanon, Tenn, March 26.-At 2 o'clock this morning a flood broke over Lebanon, 80 miles east of Nash vile, covering the public square t0 the extent that it would swim a horse, flooding every store on the square. the jail number of indus trial plants, and entering several handsome residences among others.
 The water came from the south, where countless small streams empty into the town creek, which flows through the town. When the Tennes- see Central bridge in the town went cut, the waters passed down the de- pot street into the heart of the town. The power plant was quickly inun- dated, and the city plunged into darkness.
 Harvey Richardson, negro night watchman, gave an alarm, and mounting a horse. rode into the threatened section, arousing the peo- nle. Water was then up to the beds in some homes in the floded section A child of Mamie Hunt, a nesress, was washed from it's home and seen no more. The flood necessitated shutting off the water.
