 ATIONS AND LIFTING
 STATE DEBT.

Little Rock, Dec. Ex-Governor Hays has begun work on his message to the general assembly, to be deliv- cred upon the organization soon after January II. While he is not making any advance announcement of what it will contain, he makes no secret of the fact that one of the principal things he will emphasize is that of economy; he will insist that the ap- propriations to be made shall be re- stricted within the limits of the rev. enue, and that policies be adopted which will result in the elimination of the tremendous deficit that will con front the state at the opening of the legislature.
 Great interest is manifested through out the state in the financial plans he will outline in his message. He will have an understanding with the heads of the various state institutions be- fore the appropriation bills are intro duced, so that they may be kept down to actual necessities and not to de- crease the efficiency of the depart ment of public service.

ATTITUDE OF M'DANIElS
 AWAITED WITH INTEREST

Little Rock, Dec. 17.-There is much speculation in state house cir~ cles as to the attitude the incoming state treasurer, R. G. McDaniels, uilt assume toward the state board of charitable institutions. The statutes make the state treasurer ex-ef6c cie chairman of the board, without a vote except in case of tie. State Treas urer John w. Crockett, except for the first few months of his ,administra- tion, has not met with the board, and has taken no part in its deliberations He says that he assumed this course because of the fact that he would have been only figurehead, with no voice in the proceedings, and he could see no benefit to be derived from at- tending the meetings.

 ten MT. Wa..er two weeks ago, he had not been placing the stamps on the record. Reading the ruling re- ceived by Auditor Coffman, the clesk announced that he was ready to re- fund the extra tax collected, but to- day he received the delayed reply from Agent Walker instructing him to collect the revenue tax and affix the stamps to the record.
 Commissioner Osborn's ruling was as follows:
 Licenses or certificates of authori- ty to engage in any occupat on or business or to perform any act, issued under authority of any state, county or municipal enactment, as we'll as applications or returns therefor, are not subject to tax. Such instruments include marriage licenses, automobile licenses, liquor dealers licenses, cer- tifiiates of authority to insurance companies and agents and other simi- lar documents
 The commissioner added that any previous rulings in conflict with this one had been revoked.
 County Clerk Lea is now anxious to know which ruling will take prece- dence, that of Mir. Walker or that of his superior in the revenue service.

In this hour of sorrow and misfortune
to feel that a great-hearted and disin-

to relieve the distress of the unoffend-

Despite everything they have already
suffered, the coming winter must be
terrible. but the burden will be light
ened IL the people can be spared the
pangs of hunger, with the frightful con-

shown to my people at this time will
always be most precious memory to
