WANTS SCHOOL TAX
 RAISED TO 12 MILLS
State School Superintendent Files Initiative Petition For Vote in
 The Next State Election

Little Rock, Jan. 13.-Geo. B. Cook, state superintendent of pub lie instruction, acting in behalf of the Arkansas School Directors Association, yesterday filed with Secretary of State Hodges an initi- ative petition to submit an amend ment to the people of state, chang ing the maximum amount of school tax to be voted for Tn school elections from 7 to 12 mills.
 The petition contains 12,710 sig natures, nearly 1000 more than the 8 per cent of the total num- Der of votes cast for governor in the recent general election, neces- sary for the initiation of an amend ment to the constitution. It IS the desire of those having the petition circulated to secure at least 10000 signatures, the re- maining to be filed between the present date and three months be- fore the date of the general cleo tion, the second Wednesday in September. 1916, the time limit for filing such petitions.
 The constitution provides that only three proposed amendments can be voted on at general cleo. ton, and this one will appear on the ballots next year as Amend ment No. 1.
 The amendment within itself does not increase taxes, but mere ly gives the voters in the individ- nal school districts more constitu- tional liberty. It affords the school patrons, where increased funds are needed to build a new school-house, or to take up de- felt, the opportunity of voting a tax sufficient to put their local school on business basis and give to their own children school ad- vantages which will equip them for the duties of life and citizen ship.

PROHIBITION IS
 A BIG FAILURE
Some Interesting Figures Gathered From Records in the Prohibit
 ton State of Kansas

A writer for the Outlook, the magazine recently edited by for mer President Roosevelt, was sent to Kansas to make an investigation and report upon the effect of pro- hibition in that state. Briefly stated, the following is what the report contains.
 In 87 of her 105 counties, Kan- sas has no insane people.
 In 54 of these counties there are no feeble minded, and 96 of her counties have no inebriates.
 In 3S counties there is not a person in the poorhouse.
 In 5 counties there was not a person in jail; 65 counties had no prisoners in the state penitentiary and there has not been a legal hanging or execution in Kansas in Is years.
 The entire number of paupers in the State is less than 600.
 Some counties have not called jury to try criminal case in 10 years.
 Not long ago Kansas had two hundred millions of dollars in her banks; her farmers owned live stock valued at two-hundred and twenty-five millions of dollars. and in one year the people have added forty-ive millions of dollars to their taxable property.
 Only two per cent of the entire population is illiterate. The mortality rate has dropped from 17 per 1000 to per 1000

RED BARNS IN ARKANSAS

Many new barns are being built in the rural districts of Arkansas.
 Building material dealers in all sections of the state report an un- precedented demand for barn lumber and red paint. Next to the home, the barn IS the most important building on the farm, and wherever red barns exist there frugality and prosperity abides supreme.
 The rapid construction of new barns in Arkansas is lifting the farming industry of this State into higher zone of utility and is establishing new era in our in- dustrial progress. No community can proceed far into its agricul- tural economy until it's crops are properly housed.

of these over. Gov. G. w. Hays, in spite of his public declaration of his intention to remain neu- tral, sent for several who attend ed the Lundy caucus and at tempted to win them over to Smith, but they declined to make the break.
 While this was going on the the Lundy forces were busy en- deayoring to increase their lead, and 1t was Senator Raney who finally brought in the Smith men who swelled the Lundy majority until the Smith faction was for ced to evacuate. Senator Clyde Going was the one most desired by the Lundy forces, and after every argument presented by other Lundy men had failed, Senator Raney took the matter up with the Poinsett county statesman, and the result was two more votes for the Lundy- ties, for Senator Yam came with Senator Going.
 Senator Raney, the author of the Going law, may attribute his defeat as Railroad Commissioner to the liquor men, who sought revenge for this measure, but if Senator Raney sought to even the score in the organization oi the Senate, he is more than ahead, for no more bitter bil could have been dealt to the liberals. "
 Raney is about the biggest mar in the state in the estimation oi the Arkansas Senate today, ano his influence with that body vii be superior to the vote of hal dozen active members.

DRYS VICTORIOUS
 IN SENATE FIGHT
Retiring Senator From This District Happiest Man in Little Rock
 When Senate Convened

Little ROCK, Jan. 11.-W hen the Arkansas Senate convened today at noon and Elmer J. Lun- dy of Polk county was elected President of that body, a bald headed man with a very open countenance, beamed with smiles in the rear of the Senate chamb- CT. He answered no roll calls and he was not known in the proceedings, though it was plain to see that he was undergoing the same restlessness that over comes the veteran fire horse when he hears the clamor of tn ( fire gong after he has been pen stoned to the pasture.
 Occasionally a member of the Senate would approach and con graduate this jovial appearing individual, but there was plenty of spice to go with the sweets, for there were other members who looked upon him with scowls, for to him they attribute the election of Senator Lundy, and the defeat of Senator J. Monroe Smith of Union county.
 The individual was always re- ferred to merely as TT. J." but anyone who has had anything to do with the Senate in the past six years knew we'll enough the real name, and the real identity of the one who attracted so much attention, for it was none other than the fire eating eX-member of the Senate, T. J. Raney of Newark, Independence county. While the friends of the former Senator were jubilant, they were none the less so than he, for Sen- ator Raney stood before the world with every political debt cancelled, and he witnessed the triumph of the cause for which he has been so long fighting clean men in positions of trust, and a Senate not in control of the so called Liberal" but more properly termed liquor element.
 Though not now a member of the Senate, T. J. Raney played a more important part in the or ganization of that body than any present day Senator. The organization of the Senate was no child's game, and it fell to the real men of the organization to rout the liberals" and put state wide prohibitionist in the chair. Three men outside the Senate assisted in the organiza- tion, T. J. Raney of Indepen- dence, James Wood of Ashley and Lee Miles, of Pulaski, all members of the Senate of 1913. Senator Raney was however on the ground first and remained until the last, and the heavy work of the fight fell upon him.
 Senators Calvert, John Ike Moore, Futrall and White were the ones on the inside who con- ducted the negotiations with members who swayed in the balance, but it was T. J. Raney who lined them up. When all others had failed 1t was Senator Raney who went on the trail, and he never failed to return with the game; no matter how long the hours were, or how far the chase led, he came back with the desired vote.
 When eighteen Senators finally signed the pledge to support Sen ator Lundy for the Presidency, on Saturday night, it appeared that the fight was over, but, 1T fact, it was merely starting. The Lundy forces had but one major ity, and the Smith managers { were moving the skies, with al sorts of propositions to win ont
