NEXT LEGISLATURE WILL
 HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY
Plan to Make Little Rock Seat of Ark ansas Fair and Exposition Which is Expected to Become An
 nual Event After 1914.

The next legislature will have an opportunity to pass upon a plan to make Little Rock the seat of the Ark ansas State Fair and Exposition, which is expected to become an annual event in Arkansas after 1914.
 The plan is to purchase forty acre tract of land near Little Rock, and on this the Pulaski County Fair Associa- tion will erect a number of permanent buildings, together with half mile track. Ten acres of this will be deed- ed to the state, and the legislature asked to erect thereon permanent ex- hibit halls. It is planned to ask the legislature for $40,000 for buildings, and if the request is granted, to make the title so that in case the county or ganization becomes involved, the ere ditors canot attack the portion held by the state.
 In this way the state will have con- trol over the buildings, and the old arguments against state appropria- ton disappear.
 It is reported by those back of the project that Hot Springs will not op- pose the plan, the citizens there being willing to abandon the State Fair at any time, because Oakland race track will soon be cut into town lots, and Hot Springs will then have no place to hold the annual eXpositions.
 Should the plans go through, an ex- perimental station vii be maintained on a portion of the ten acres ceded to the state, and on another portion pro- visions will be made for stadium at which pageants and similar festivi- ties may be staged at intervals during the year.

PULLMAN PETITIONS
 CONTINUE POURING IN
Penitentiary Official Says Youth Should Not Hang. Condemned Grows More MOrose as Date of Ex-
 ecution Draws Near.

Arthur Tillman should not be hanged is the assertion of an official of the Arkansas penitentiary, who has been closely associated with the four boys who are confined in the lpenitentiary under sentence of death "There is in his case such an element of doubt that he, by all means, should have enough of the benefit to be all lowed his life, even though it is one to be spent behind prison walls"
 Religious services are held at the Arkansas penitentiary every Sunday and all convicts are required to at tend. This gives the four boys who await death in the cells adjoining the electric chair, a brief hour with the other prisoners. All are marched into the chapel and the only clear faces are those of the four beardless youths who await execution. They sing with the other convicts, and lead in the ser vices. Their voices are asily distn- guishable from those of the deeper tones of the other convicts. All are high pitched, some nearing soprano.
 Tilman grows more and more re- morse as the date set for the execu- tion approaches. He seems to feel that no hand can save him, though he stoutly protests his innocence. Ac- cording to prison official, Tillman scores the father of his alleged vic- tim, Amanda Stephens, whom he says knew of the waywardness of his daughter for months before the crime was committed. While Tilman has never actually charged any particular person with the murder of his sweet heart, his conversation would lead one to believe he places the guilt upon a man who appeared as a witness against him, and who was often as- sociated with Tillman and the mur- dered girl.
 Petitions asking for the commuta- ton of Tillman's sentence continue to pour in on Gov. Hays, and where Tillman has life, there is still hope that his sentence will be commuted.

RAILROADS UNDERPAID
 FOR CARRYING MAILS

In an interview with o. H. Helbig, vive-president and traffic manager of the Prescott X Northwestern railroad, he expresses his opinion that the bill now pending in congress prepared by Second Assistant Postmastr General should not receive reproval either of the public or of congress until after the Joint Congressional Committee has made its report. Mr. Helbig says:
 "The railroads have gone to great expense and trouble in an attempt to press their case eXhaustively to the Joint Congressional Committee now Investigating this subject. We have, as we see it, shown that the railroads are very much underpaid for carrying the mails. The Second Assistant Postmaster General, however, who is in charge of the Railway Mail Service, appears to feel that it is his function to do everything possible to force the railroads to carry the mails for the very smallest amount of money re- gardless of whether or not the pay ment is adequate or remunerative
 "We feel, therefore that the Bill which has been introduced in Congress and which has been prepared by him should not receive approval either of the public or of Congress until after the Joint Congressional Committee has made it's report and announces to the public what it considers to be fair. Our feeling is that the Joint Commit tee has gone into the matter so thor oughly and is itself so unbiased that we can rely upon the justice of it's findings"
