Raney Refuses
 To COnCede
Defeat Claiming That Mistakes In POinsett and Arkansas Counties May Give Him
 Lead.

Little Rock, April Estate Senator T. J. Raney, who was a candidate for the Democratic nomination for state railroad commissioner from the North western District, called up on the long distance telephone from his home in Newark yesterday to say that he had evidently been misunderstood by the Ga |zette reporter who interviewed him during his visit to Little Rock Sunday.
 T do not concede that Mir. Wood won the nomination" said Senator Raney. There are very few votes between MT. Wood and myself and I object to being re- ferred to as defeated candi- date. After the vote has been officially counted there will be time enough to say who is nomi- hated"
 q have received copy of a resolution adopted by the Demo- cratic Central Committee of Ar kansas county, which says that my name was left off the ballot in every township except one. The resolution says that the members of the committee are undecided as to what should be done and they leave the matter up to the state convention.
 q did not say that elininat- ing the vote of Arkansas county would still leave MT. Wood with enough votes to win. The official vote of Poinsett county, as shown to me by Senator Going shows that the Gazette made a mistake in it's figures from that county. My vote in that county was credited to Major Bellamy, while Major Bellamy's vote was credited to me. The elimination of the vote in Arkansas county and the correction of the mis- takes in the Gazette's figures from Poinsett county would leave me in the lead"
 Senator Raney said he would decide on no course of action un- til after the official count of the

City Election Contest.

The city election, while get ting off to a late start through inability to easily secure judges and clerks, is polling a fair vote, about 90 ballots being cast ir the First ward at 3 p. m., and nearly the same number in the Second.
 Some talk of dark horses against the primary nominees was heard and this helped to bring out the vote.
 The white primary has been too thoroughly established in Newport for opposition in the general election and it's nomin- ees should receive the cordial and hearty support of all who entered and had a voice in their selection.
 If you haven't voted, go to the polls and cast your ballot, as the polls are open until 6 p. m.

 STUTTGART.
 When it was discovered that Mir. Raney's name had been left off the ticket in Arkansas coun- ty orders to write in the name were given in Stuttgart.
 R. E. Holt of Stuttgart, menl- Der of the old County Central Committee and secretary of the new organization and Raney supporter, made the following statement to the Gazette last night
 sWe discovered the omission of Senator Raney's name before the polls were opened and gave instructions that it be written | upon every ballot. 1 was SUD- porter of Senator Raney and par ticularly interested in seeing that he got the full benefit of all the strength he had created here. I feel sure he received as many votes in this township with his name written upon the ballot as he would have secured had it been printed"
 Postmaster Louis Buerkle de- ,clared he personally saw to the writing of Senator Raney's name upon the ballots used in. his township.

fext Of ! Courts Decision
in Uph0lding Constitutionality Of Going Liquor License
 Law.

Little Rock, April 7.-The HGoing liquor license law was held to be constitutional in an opinion handed down yesterday L by the Arkansas Supreme Court. The court construed the provis- 1 son of the act allowing only white adults to sign the license peti- tlons, as an effort within the rights of a state, to regulate the liquor traffic. The legislature had full authority to deny the gight to. sell liquor in the state under any condition, the opinion points out.
 } Justice Kirby did not partici- \ pate in the decision, but all the Eemaining justices agreed that the act is constitutional.
 ln passing on the matter rela- sse to circulating petitions for saloons and the right of the state to make laws irrespective pf the United States law in con- fnection with the liquor trade, ( the decision says:
 , BOWER WER OF LEGISLATION.
 1t is not doubted that the leg

 ty implication prohibited rprn so doing by the Constitu- ten, and the act assailed must De lplainly at variance with the Constitution before the courts Will declare it invalid" y The decision goes on to state: ' Tn regard to the objection that tla act in question is in conflict w.a the fourteenth a. m |ndment of the United States sthat it has uniformly beeen held bA the supreme court of the U- nl(ted States that the right to engage in selling intoxicating li- q'tors is not one of the privileges ~ imr unities of citizens of the oD States which the states

Newport daily independent., 1914-04-07

VI SSIVlIQuC. 1Ilt CVluGIlC pllT-
 pose and object of the fifteenth
 amendment is to secure the
 right of citizes to vote in cleo tions contemplated by the four teeiith amendment. For the reasons hereafter given statu- tory proceedings to obtain li- cense for the sale of intoxicat- ing liquors, such as the one un- der consideration, are not cleo tions and are not, therefore, in conflict with the fifteenth a. mendment.
 But the principal reliance of counsel for appellees to uphold judgment of the circuit court is that the act in question is in violation of Article 2, Section l18 of the State Constitution, Which IS as follows:
 The equality of all persons before the law is recognized and shall ever remain inviolate, nor shall any citizen ever be deprived Of any right, privilege or irn- munity or exempt from any duty on account of race, color or previous servitude. The gen. eral assembly shall not grant 1 to any citizen or class of citizens privileges or immunities which, upon the same terms, shall not equally belong to all classes
 They insist that proceedings required by the act as a prereq- llisite to the granting of license by the county court is an cleo tion and that to deny colored people the right to vote would be violation of that clause of our Constitution just quoted. Of course, if the position assumed by counsel is correct the act IcOntravenes our Constitution be- cause the right to vote is priv ilege from which a person can- mot be excluded on account of color.
 PETITION NOT AN ELEC-
 TON.
 Ut is plain that the court did not mean to hold that the pro- curing of signers to the peti- tion and the presentation there of to the county court was an e. lection, for the law, as it then existed, permitted adult females as well as adult males to sign a petition praying that the sale of intoxicating liquors be prohib- tied by the court. The court had already held the act consti- tutional. If such a proceeding was an election the court could not have held the act constitu- tional, for under our Constitu- tion only male persons over the age of twenty-one years with certain other qualifications, as to residence, are allowed to vote. The court only said that the proceeding is analogous to or like an action is quite a differ ent thing from saying it is an election.
 CITES PINE BLUFF CASE.
 Counsel for appellees rely on the case of Leon Levy ex parte, a Pine Bluff case, as con- clusively sustaining their posi- tion that the act under consid- eration denies the adults of the colored race privileges and inn munities that are granted to the adult white inhabitants and is therefore violative of the clause of our constitution quoted. The language of a decision must be read with reference to the facts before the court and the princi- ,ples of law, whici, -e present for consideration and determina- |intion. Levy had applied to the bounty court for license to re ltail liouors in the city of Pine
