OLD CONWAY firm IS
IN RECEIVERS HANDS
WILSON BROTHERS, DRY GOODS
AND SHOE MERCHANTS AD-
JUDGED BANKRUPT.

5. W. Rogers, an attorney of this
city, has been appointed receiver of
the business of Wilson Brothers, dry
goods and shoe merchants of this
city, who were adjudged bankrupts by
the federal court in Little Rock Thurs
day afternoon. The first meeting of
the creditors will be held in that city
on March II, at which time bids for
the purchase of the stock and fixtures
of the firm will also be opened.
The firm of Wilson Brothers, which
is one of the oldest concerns in the
city, is composed of G. w. A. and w.
B. Wilson, and their business was
once one of the largest in the city. In
creasing financial difficulties, which
were rendered more acute by the ad-
verse business conditions of the past
six months are responsible for the
failure. Both members of the firm
are among the most enterprising and
progressive of the local business men
and the news of their misfortune was
received with universal regret. 1t is
stated that the assets of the business,
which are given at $4,000, exceed the
liabilities by about $1,000.

TAX EXTENSION
KILLED IN HOUSE
ELECTION BILL AMENDED
HOUSE ALSO PASSES GENERAL
GAME LAW, COVERING EN-
TIRE STATE.

Little Rock, Feb. 27.-The house
Friday afternoon, by a vote of 55 to
81, indefinitely postponed the bill by
Senators Garrett and Ashley, provid-
ing for the extension of the tine for
tie payment of taxes from April 10 to
November 1. Strong opposition de-
Veioped In the house against this
measure on the ground that it would
demoralize the school revenue of the
state and seriously hamper all she de-
partments of government, state, coun-
ty and district, which are dependent
upon the revenue derived from taxa
ton.
The house passed by a vote Of 81 to
81 the general game bill which origi
mated In the senate, where it was in
troduced by Senator Futrell. After a
tempestuous voyage in the house dur
ing which it had been threatened with
destruction ON the breakers of OBJ
stfuctive amendments 1t came to a
final vote without any change. from
the text as it came from the senate.
1t will therefore become the general
law, applicable to all counties in the
state, for the protection of all game.
A game commission is provided with a
sy stem of licenses, bag-lmits and re-
strictions which, it is argued, will con-
serve the wild life of Arkansas.
The house, after a spirited debate.
struck out the following section of the
Moore primary election bill:
"All organized political parties
shall select their candidates for office
through primary elections held as
hereinafter provided; except in case
Of vacancies, and each party shall pay
the expenses of its own primary cleo
ton except as herein otherwise pro-
vided
The vote on the elimination of this
clause was 46 As. 1t leaves it op-
tional to the various parties to hold
primaries. The primaries shall be
held on the fourth Tuesday in March,
Notwithstanding the fact that, since
the consolidation Of the elections, the
oISiIS tiGIlloi Will HOC De ISlu tHlll
the following November.
The following amendment was
adopted:
Each political party holding a pri-
mary election shall hold a county con-
vention at the principal county seat
of each county on the first Monday
following the primary election at / p.
m. The convention shall be called to
order by the chairman of the county
central committee, if present and will
ling to act; if not present, or if pres
ent and refusing to act, then by any
delegate of said convention. The coun-
ty convention shall select delegates to
the various conventions of the respec-
tive political parties" The bill orig
imally provided that the county con-
vention should be held one week be-
fore the primary election.
This is the bill drawn by S. Brun-
didge, Jos. M. Hill, Thos C. McRae,
John NJ. Moore and others. by direc-
ton of the last Democratic state con-
vention, its purpose being to purify
politics. AS amended it is believed
the bill will pass.

same election commissioners, judges
and clerks appointed to hold the last
preceding general election in this
county will serve at the special cleo
rlon. Every legal voter in the dis
trict is entitled to vote for or against
the measure, and if majority vote
against the law is automatically re-
pealed.
A summary of the bill was publish
&c in the Log Cabin Democrat last
week, after its passage in the house.

Little Rock, Feb. 27.-Hammerine
away until vulnerable point was dis
covered the opposition of the SAWYER
racing bill pierced its armor FRIDAY
afternoon with an amendment TO ex-
empt counties, which carried with few
votes to spare, and tne desired end
had been accomplished. 1t meant
that If the senate passed the bill as
amended, that the house must again
pass upon the measure, giving anoth
er chance to defeat. The supporters
Of the bill were a Dit downcast over
this action, but not routed, and still
full of fight they succeeded in hav-
ing the bill, as amended, made a spe-
clal order for Saturday morning at
$3.50, at which time the question of
passage was scheduled for vote.
In the morning session motions to
amend by adding a section to submit
to the people, which was voted down.
The amendment to make the bill ap-
ply only to Garland county was like
wise lost, after which Senator Toler
moved to amend by taking off the
emergency clause which made it eff
fective after being approved by the
governor. By doing this the bill
would not have become effective for
80 days after approval and this would
give the people time to file a petition
for referendum on the bill. The ar
gument on this motion was continued
until afternoon when it was voted
down Is to 16.
Senator Going then moved the pre-
vious question on the bill, which
would have given each side thirty
minutes to argue the merits and de-
merits of the bill. This motion was
seconded when President Lundy de-
layed putting it until Senator Gar
rett had offered an amendment to eX-
empt certain counties. Others asked
that their counties be exempted until
the number reached 35.
Senators Going, Moore, Burgess
and Wasson fought the exemption
amendment, while Senators White,
Bush, Greathouse, Vann, Calvert sup
ported it. Senator Going offered to
use his influence to get bill passed
eXempting all the counties that want
ed to be left out of the provisions of
the bill if they would let it pass un-
amended. He did not want to send
the bill amended back to the house.
This was refused
After the bill had been amended
the motion to make it a special or
der for Monday morning was met by
protest from it's foes, who wanted it
set for disposition on Tuesday, which
is house day, but Senator moved a
substitute to have it brought up Sat
urday morning, so the senate thereby
decided not only to have two night
sessions in the week, but to work Sat
urday as well.
The counties excepted were: Grant,
Saline, Hot Spring, White, Faulkner,
Prairie, Lonoke, Clarke, Pike, Cross,
Woodruff, Washington, Polk, How
ard, Sewer, Little River, Hampstead,
Nevada, jefferson, Sebastian, Gle
burne, Conway, Searcy, Van Buren,
Greene, Clay, Craighead, crawford,
Sharp, Scott, Franklin, Arkansas and

The senate then passed the house

and chancery judges of Arkansas;
