Seek to Refer Act.

Little Rock, Sept. 25.-Judge J. V. Bourland of Fort Smith, United States district attorney of the Western Arkansas Dis trict, was in Little Rock today conferring with leaders of the Arkansas Labor Federation, with a view of representing that organization before the su- preme court, in a case involving the validity of the anti-saloon act passed by the last legislature.
 The referendum feature of the act is the feature in which the labor federation is interested. They contend that the act should be referred to the voters of the state under the initiative and re- ferendum. This case may serve as a precedent in future cases in which the federation is involved.

was looking down into the kettle and lost it's balance, going head first into the water. Of course it could make no outcry.
 The family are all nearly pros trated over the sad accident, and MT. Pelley said yesterday he hardly felt like staying there now that the baby was dead, and expressed the desire to go back to the old home in Oil Trough. The people in Sulphur Rock were very kind and good to the grief stricken family and all that could be done to make the sor-. row easier to bear was done.
 The remains of the baby were buried this morning near the old home at Oil Trough.

Child of Asa Pelley Drowned.

Batesville, Sept. 26.-One of the most shocking accidents that ever occurred in this county oc- cured Tuesday evening about 6 o'clock at Sulphur Rock, when the little two-year-old baby of Asa Policy was drowned in a kettle of rain water. The news of the shocking accident was brought to BateSville this morn ing by L. P. Kent of Sulphur Rock.
 Mir. Policy and family were moving to Sulphur Rock from Oil Trough and had intended go- ing to the latter place to take ad- vantage of the good schools found there. They were ar ranging to live in the house for
 
 merly occupied by Peel McCook, who recently moved to Bates vile, and all their household goods had arrived and were be- ing placed in the house.
 The children of the family were playing about the yard and inspecting the new premises, and no one had been watching the little baby for a few minutes in the rush to get the furniture in the house. It had probably been missing for twenty minutes when the search was started for it. The search did not last long when one of the other children discovered the child head first in the kettle of water. There is no telling how long the little child had been there, but it had been long enough to be dead when found, and all efforts to revive it were unsuccessful.
 The kettle did not belong to MT. Pelley, it having been left in the back yard of the premises, and the recent heavy rains had filled it nearly full of water. It is ouite sure that the little fellow

Condemned Youth A Pervert

OOuuculucU 1Outu A CAVCll. Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Sept. 25.- That Arthur Hodgins, the 19-year- old youth, who is sentenced to be electrocuted in November for the murder of the marshal at Amity, is a pervert, is the opin- ion of the penitentiary officials. Hodgins, instead of showing re- morse for his crime, and fear of the electric chair, spends the most of his time drawing lewd pictures. He does not express regret for his crime, and appar- ently does not realize that he stands in the shadow of death.
 An effort will be made to have Hodgins' sentence commuted to life imprisonment, for those who have questioned him say he is mentally weak, and has little sense of right and wrong. Hod- gins shot the officer after he had been arrested for a minor offense, using a revolver he had concealed in an inner pocket.

First District Under New Law

Paragould, Sept. 24.-State Highway Engineer A. s. Kilgore of Magnolia, Representative A. V. Smith of Banks, author of the State highway law, and c. w. Highfill of this city, member of the State Highway Commission, held a meeting in Paragould to- day and prepared the charter for Road Improvement District No. l of Greene county, the first district organized under the new highway law.
 The new road runs from Para gould east II miles to the St. Francis river. At a point one mile east of Paragould another road, running south to the Craig head county line, is included in the district. The highway engi- neer has made the preliminary survey. It is the purpose of those interested in this impor- tant road, to have all the details out of the way and the bond is- sue sold so work can begin on the road in the early spring.
 Commissioner Kilgore and Mir. Smith spent a portion of the day on the commissary road, watch ing the volunteer work of Para gould laborers in the gravel pits. Both declared they have found more interest manifested here in the good roads movement than at any point in the state.

eaton to the defendant. He also took up the evidence immediate ly surrounding the killing and made a strong argument in
 support of the shooting being necessary to defend the life of the man on trial.
 MT. Campbell, on the other hand, devoted his argument largely to the instructions of the court in this case, a field in which he is recognized without a peer among the attorneys of this section of the state. His remarks were replete with illus tration and reference to the classics and received the close attention of the jury.
 MT. Ponder concluded for the state in a brilliant address. which he opened with a reply to a previous talk as to his mission in this court and, telling of how his wife had urged upon him his duty in helping the state to punish this defendant. He pictured the grief-stricken widow of the slain man as the most true and correct picture of loneliness and sorrow that he had ever witnessed and in splen- did voice and beautiful express sion drew from the evidence in the case reasons why justice the supremacy of the law and protection of society demanded a conviction in this case.
 The case was turned over to the jury at 5:30 p. m. and half hour later court was adjourned for the evening recess until 2 p. m. At the night session, many waited throughout the evening for the jury to reach a verdict and report. But no word came and at 10 o'clock, Judge Jeffery adjourned court until next morn ing. The jury had been asked if there was any disagreement or doubt as to the instructions, but replied that the division was as to the evidence or rather the jury's way of seeing it.

80 INDICTMENTS
 JURY DISCHARGED
Grand Jury Makes Its Final Re. port and Recommendations
 to Court.

The grand jury for the Sep tember term of circuit court af- ter being in session 12 days and examining 229 witnesses, made its final report to court late Thursday afternoon and was dis charged. This jury returned a total of 80 indictments, a num- Der of which were in the murder cases tried and yet to be hard at this term of court.
 | Upon the reports made by mag istrates, the report states that J. R. Andrews of Village, J. H.. Murphy of Breckenridge and John R. Loftin of Union are short in their accounting as jus tices of the peace and that w. T. Atway of Glass has exceeded his authority in reducing the fine of gambling from $10 to $5.
 The jury recommends that road overseers when sworn in be required to standan examination as to their duties and the road laws, believing that a better ac- quaintance with the road laws would materially help in hand ling the road question as well as to give the county a better re- port in perceptible improvement and benefit for the money spent each year."
 The jury visited the jail in a body and found it as sanitary as such places usually are and says We highly commend our Sher- | if, Mir. John F. McCuistion, for prompt action in discharging Mir. Grover Gardner who had abetted Fand allowed gross immoralities between negro prisoners in the jail."
 Relative to the county hospit- al, where a committee of three found 8 inmates, 2 white males, l 4 white females and 2 colored males, the jury reports the place we'll kept and the interior in a satisfactory condition. The fare is we'll prepared and wholesome and the health of inmates good. The jury recommended that stock be kept out of the main yard.
 The court house was found in good condition except for a few leaks, which needed attention. | The report of the commission CTS of accounts was approved by the jury, except for two warrants | No. 415 and 418 for $6 each which seem to have been over
 booked in recording allowances
 The report commended town
 ship magistrates for disposlne of misdemeanor cases and re-
 commended to the justices o1
 the peace that they recognize
 only witnesses to material facts in the cases referred to the
 grand jury.

The Roman senate was a judicial
and legislative body and for several
centuries numbered 300 men, carefully
selected from the patricians. The ma
jority Of votes decided a question, and
the order IN which the senators spoke
and voted was determined by their
rank. Their decisions. called senstus
c~onsulta, were the supreme law Of the
republic, from which, of course. there
was no appeal. After the establish
ment Of the empire the character Of
the senate was greatly lowered, and
at last 1t became simply the tool Of the
emperor, to do his bidding regardless
Of the consequences.-New York Amer
