NEW JERSEY GO.
 BUYS OIL MILLS ARKANSAS GO. SELLS OUT EIGHT MILLION DOLLAR CON- CERN TAKES OVER MANY
 ARKANSAS PLANTS.

Little Rock, March 21.-The Ar kansas Cotton Oil Company, which has mills in Little Rock, Fort Smith, Texarkana, Pine Bluff, Cotton Plant, Helena and England, surrendered it's charter to the state Friday, and will retire from business as such.
 The company's business has been taken over by the Union Seed and Fertilizer Co. of New Jersey, which has been working on the project for the last year, and is just consummat- ing negotiations for the purchase not only of the Arkansas mills, but mills throughout the southern states in which the owners of the Arkansas Cotton Oil Co. are interested.
 R. F. Munroe is president of the Arkansas Cotton Oil Co.,, and F. H. Eberts is secretary. MT. Eberts, one of the best known cotton oil men of the state, will continue as general manager of the business under the new ownership. A. G. Pearce of Lit tie Rock is named as the agent for service in the state.
 The Union Seed and Fertilizer Go. has assets of $8,9S7, ,181, and liabilities of $478,782. It has capital stock amounting to $8,54O,473, of which $897 ,616 is to be employed in the state of Arkansas, that representing the value of the mills that have been talk en over. It cost the company $913.65 entrance fees to file it's papers with the secretary of state.
 The Arkansas Cotton Oil Co. was party to the custer suit recently brought against the cotton oil compa- nies of the state for alleged viola ton of the antitrust law. Neither the attorney-general nor representa- tives of the corporation would make any statement as to the bearing the sale will have upon the suit.

PEACH CROP NOT
 GREATLY DAMAGED
CRAWFORD COUNTY GROWERS SAY FREEZE DID LITTLE
 INJURY.

Van Buren, March 24.-Unless the cold last night caused the buds to freeze, the peach crop of Crawford county has not been damaged enough to cause serious shortage in the yield, according to J. A. Barrett, man. ager of the Van Buren Fruit Crow ers' Association, who yesterday open ed offices for the association at the head of Main street, preparatory to handling the peaches and strawber- ries this season. MT. Barrett Sunday made an investigation of the condi- tions of peach buds in larger orchards of Crawford county and issued a statement yesterday that while some of the buds were frozen, the damage will not cause shortage in the yield.
 Reports have been current in the fruit belt during the last several days that the cold weather, snow and hail, accompanied by killing frosts, caused a 50 per cent damage to the fruit crop. It was Saturday reported in this city that fully 25 per cent of the peach buds had been killed by the cold. MT. Barrett, however, is of the opinion that the buds killed will only cause enough peaches to fall from the trees to insure good quality from the fruit that is not damaged. As point ed out by MT. Barrett, the trees each year have more peaches than the limbs can hold, unless the growers thin them out, and he says that the frost and cold have done this for the farmer.
 "We have some of the finest quality peaches ever grown in Arkansas from the orchards of Crawford county" said MT. Barrett. T am of the opin- ion, after examining the buds Satur- day., that the freeze and frost will prove beneficial rather than detrimen- tai to the growers. Strawberries have been slightly injured, although I pre- dict that Crawford county will have at least 45 cars of berries this year. The first homegrown strawberries will arrive on the market about May l."

0KLAHOMANS SEE ARKANSAS CAPITOL NEW STRUCTURE PRAISED COMMISSION FROM NEIGHBOR STATE INSPECTS ARKAN-
 SAS CAPITOL.

Little Rock, March 24.-That they might secure inspiration as we'll as information that will be useful to them in the construction of their cap itol building, the Oklahoma State Capitol Commission spent Monday afternoon inspecting the Arkansas state capitol.
 Those in the party were w. B. An thony, chairman, former member of the Oklahoma house; P. J. Goulding, a former member of the state senate, and Stephen A. Douglass, the Repub- lican member, constituting the con- mission; E. w. Gist, the secretary, and s. A. Layton and s. w. Smith, the architects.
 Oklahoma has made an appropria- tion of .$1, ,5OO,O 900 for the state capitol at Oklahoma City, and the commits sioners have been instructed to visit and inspect number of the modern state capitols to secure ideas that -may be used in their plans. The Ar kansas capitol was the first visited, and it was inspected thoroughly, un- der the direction of former Governor Donaghey, one of the Arkansas capi- tol commissioners, and Secretary Rem ton Tunnah. The visitors expressed themselves as most favorably im- pressed with the building.
 "We think you have most beauti- ful building" said Chairman Antho- ny, land when the work now in pro- gress is completed, it will be as at tractive as one could wish, and large enough to be thoroughly adequate for the needs of state like Arkansas, or even larger state, for that matter. \ "We had heard that you had had considerable scandal in connection with it's erection" he continued, laughingly, "and we wanted to find out what was the cause of that, so that we might avoid anything of that character in our work. As a matter af fact, ignorant criticism is often more harmful than the kind that is honest and with foundation of fact, for it inflames the minds of those who are chronic fault finders. Honest criticism is, or should be, always well come, and we want to get through without any of the dishonest kind if ve can do so. We do not anticipate any of the trouble which frequently follows the erection of great public buildings like this, but we desire to be we'll fortified for whatever comes up. The people of Oklahoma want a .$1, SOC, ,0O0 capitol for $1 y50O,OOO, and that is what we propose to give them in the light of the best information we are able to get on this tour of in- spection."
 From Little Rock the commission

done even though the operation of the acts be postponed for year or more from the time of enactment. The legislature manifested a strong ten dency to prevent reference, though 1t is hard to discover any fixed principle in the use of the emergency clause. For example, it was attached to acts requiring railroads to screen their cars, enlarging the powers of the board of health, regulating the prac- tice of trained nurses, the blue-sky law, acts requiring employers to pro- vide for female employees, to prevent corrupt practices, and to provide a bureau of labor. It was not attached to statutes regulating campaign ex- penses, regulating water-power rights, acts to prevent fraud in bulk-sales, and to provide for the taxation of certain puplic utility corporations. Two important questions raised by the recent litigation have not been settled, namely, whether the method of advertising measures prescribed in the enabling act applies to amend ments submitted by the legislature as we'll as those originated by petition, and whether an amendment, to be adopted, must receive majority of the total vote or only majority of the vote cast on it.
 "But the initiative and referendum is in active operation. As already in- dicated, a constitutional amendment originated by petition is now pending. The legislature shows some disposi- tion to refer local measures of it's own. Initiative petitions are now be- ling circulated, one of them to provide a child-labor law which the last leg islature refused to enact.'
