Governor Investigates Election
 Results.


 Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Oct. 2.-The State Board of Election Commis- sioners met in the office of Gov. c. w. Hays Thursday afternoon and canvassed the returns in the recent election. An error was corrected to take Howard out of the "wet" column and place it in the "dry" by 751 votes.
 Gov. Hays will not issue pro- Iclamation declaring the acts and Amendments to be adopted until after he has looked carefully in- to the law governing this mat ter. The members of the Con- mission were of the opinion that there is no question about the Child Labor act, and the Publicity Biii, but there is a clash between the Bond Amend 'ment and the constitution. The Bond Amendment measure makes it effective immediately after it has been adopted by a majority vote, while the Consti- tuition requires that all amend |ments must be declared adopted by the Speaker. of the House. Whether this will render the amendment void, Gov. Hays cannot say at this time.
