 GOING LAW VIOtAT0R

Little Rock, July Ex-Governor Hays has granted pardon in the case of J. E. Hickey of Fort Smith, which presents some peculiar condl- lions. Hickey was convicted on a chargeM5f sefling liquor illegally, and fintAh $50, which was sustained by the Supreme court which refused a ieshtaring Nov. 16, 1914. T. C. Os- borne, recommending the pardon' says: :: ,a .*
 "The case was brought before a justice of the peace for the purpose of laying the foundation for case in the United States supreme court to further test the constitutlonallty or what was known as the Going act. The case was made up by agreement mon questions raised, a sale was made by MT Hickey, not to violate the law, but for the sole purpose of rais- ing the legal question"
 Chief Justice Mccullough. refused to allow writ of error to the Unlted States supreme court. Application was then made to an associate Jus- tice of the United States supreme court for a writ of error, which was again declined on the ground that a "white" man could not raise the question of. alleged discrimination against the negro by the Going act.
 The governor also remitted lines assessed in Greene county circuit court April 13. 1915, of $500 in four cases against Charles H. Kinney. ana $500 in five cases against George Brl- foos. on charges of illegal sale of liouor. The pardons were recon mended by the circuit judge and prosecuting attorney. Kinney is par doned on condition that he shall nev- CT again engage in the sale Of l1quor illegally. and Brifoos upon condition that he shall leave the state of Ar kansas forever and return to hls nome in Tennessee.

JUDGES Gowns.

The London Law Times points out
that the silk gown of the bench and
bar owes its original use to its having
been adopted as a form of mourning
at the death OF an English sovereign
On the death of Queen Mary in 1854
the present silk gown was introduced
as mourning and, having been found
more convenient and less troublesome
than the regular dress then worn. has
since been continued. The late Sir
Frederick Pollock is said TO have eX-
pressed an opinion I'm reference to the
ordinary costume of the bar that the
bench and bar went into mourning at
the death of Queen Anne and have SO
remained ever since. American courts
adopted the gown along with the Eng
lish common law.

Envelope Gifts.

The simplest way for girl to re-

Christmas time is with an envelope
gift. Some small useful token which
can be sent through the mail has quite
as much significance as bulky or
elaborate present which requires a
large postage or express fee to carry
it to its destination. And there is no
end of pretty gifts which can be made
TO fit easily into an envelope Of or

comes in stout manila paper as well as
in the more fragile white paper
