the minority, which opposed prohl- bitiOn measures.
 Senator Calvert instanly was on his feet and declared that the sena- tor from Washington was misstating the question when he referred tc those voting against the second read ing as the minority, for it was fundamental principle of parliament tary eractice that the majority rule. and the majority had spoken ill this case.
 Senator Going asserted that the statement of Senator Greenhouse was unfair and unjust, inasmuch as it referred to the majority as eighteen had voted for the postponement of the the second reading.
 President Lundy then ended the de- bate by declaring all the discussion as well as the personal privilege to be out of order.
 State aid to high school repeal was debated only by Senator Ruff, who had moved to indefinately postpone the Condray and Miller bill which mad passed the house. The motion lest on the following vote:
 Aye-Adamson, Bush, Cabiness. Davenport, Duty, Garrett, Greenhouse, Jones, Moore, Ruff, Sims, Slaughter. Vann, Wagner, White-15.
 Nay-Ashley, Burgess, Calvert, Carter, Collins, Edmondson, Fergu- Son, Futrell, Going, Hamilton, Harris, Kendall, Mccall, Overman, Owens, Smith, Smith, Toler, Wasson, MT. President-20.
 The senate then refused to send the bill to coemittee and made it a special order for next Tuesday morn ing.
 The senate received a new bill from Senator Greenhouse, consolidating elections, which were referred to the election committee and adopted the Bush resolution for a committee to Investigate the state board Of chari- ties squabble.
 Dispose of Liquor.
 Senator Futrell gave notice that to- morrow he will offer motion to amend the rules that majority, in- stead Of two-thirds, may bring up the liquor bills and give them considera- tion.
 The senate received message from Gov. G. w. Hays asking for an imnN- diate investigation of the action of the board of charities for the past two years This message was exception ally peppery for Governor Hays, who has dealt very leniently with the board fo charities situation, but he now in- dicates that the time for diplomacy has passed.
 Moving a Township.
 A most impG-s1nt bill was intro duced by Senator White, taking one township from Saline county and add ing it to Pulaski. for the purpose ot building pike road over this seven miles, and putting in steel bridge across a creek. 1t was pointed out that the finances of Saline county will never be sufficient for the construc- tion of the macadam road or the bridge, and that if the territory is an nexed to Pulaski county, the good road between Little Rock and Pine Bluff can be completed.

HARDWOOD MARKET PROSPECTS BETTER
Indications Point to Big De mand on Mills Within
 Next Few " eelys.

The SouthGrn l.umberman, Nash ville, Tenn, this week says regarding hardwood lumber market conditions:
 While the hardwood market for tho past week has been considerably handicapped by the severe cold wealth CT which has held the couit:.' ;--lts icy grip, making outdoor construction work impossible and yard work slow and difficult, inquiry from consuming factories has been mere general ana the turn in the long lane seems not for ahead. Reports from Chicago Gin cinnati, Louisville and Memphis indl- cato prospects of larger orders from wood consuming plants within the next few weeks. The same is true of conditions at Nashville, more inquiries having been received by lumber con- cerns here this week than any week since November. A fair business should follow this inquiry immediate ly and considerably increased buy yng q little later on. The furniture exhib- it's at Chicago and Grand Rapids, just closed, were visited by 8 large num- Der of buyers, and, though the pur- chases m2 de during the shows were slightly sub-normai the furniture manufacturers were we'll satisfied with results. The furniture manufac- turers have noticed a strong tenden- cy during the past year or two for the retailers to defer their purchases until after returning home, and the real volume of business is expected to reach them in the next few weeks.
 Automobile shows are also in pro- gress end the manufacturers are said 10 be wei pleased with the interest shown. They are anticipating a good trade throughout the year and wilt prc bably be pretty heavily in the mar ket for lumber in the next thirty days.
 The extensive use of American black walnut and rcd gum at the furniture shows was the occasion of considera- ble comment Several of the leading manufacturers made speciality of these two woods in displaying their new styles. The decreasing use of Circassian walnut was also noted and commented on. The popularity of both plain and quartered oak seemed to be well maintained. The prevalence of styles of enameled furniture also
 
 facturers the possibilities for the use Of poplar in this connection.
 The demand this week has been largely from furniture and vehicle manufacturers. Builders of farm im- plements have also been placing some orders, and tho call from box and j, flooring factories has been fair. Plain and quartered oak, gum, cottonwood and Northern maple are the chiet woods called for this week. There is also a fair call for poplar. but chestnut is selling only slowly. Other hardwoods show no change.
 Prospects for increased business in the cypress market are slowly becom- ing brigther As soon as the weather permits of building operations the cy- press market is expected to improve rapidly.

Friendly Fish.

4 curious instance of the familiarity of fishes with human beings has been observed in Portland, Ore, at the Uni- ed States barge office. The official boat is kept at the end of the wharf Some time ago one of the boatmen began to notice 2 fish about eight inches long, and resembling a carr that seemed to wish to scrape acquain. tance. The fish would come up to tho top of the water whenever the man ap. peared, and did not seem to be at al. afraid. After time all the men got to know the flsE; and began to take friends to see him At first he might not be in sight, but he would very soon appear and frisk around near the surface. Once or twice he has come so close as to rub his nose against .he boatlnan's hand, and the mea arc waiting further developments.

"Seyen Keys to Dnldpatc.'

One of the distinct novelties and one Of the biggest successes Of the present theatrical season is "Seven Keys to Baldpate," the mystery farce made into play by George M, Cohan from the book of the same name by Earl Derr Biggers, and which is to be presented at the Elks' theatre to. day matinee and night.
 Concerning the performance at the Kenpner theatre Monday, the Little Rock Gazette, in most favorable criticism, says:
 "Cchan and Harris have given
 weird play good setting and an eX- cellent company Even the bias laughter is uproarious. William Wagner as the hero of his own story enacts the part with the necessary sangfrcid and Elza Federic's portray al of the mythical biacknailer is truly artistic. Albert Watterson as the mayors man Friday very cleverlH plays the by turns coward and b!uf fer. Chauncey CauSsland. in the lugubrious comedy role of the cheer full soul the hermit who wishes everyone the worst that can bafai them raised many laughs. Harry Maitland as the crooked mayor does his character work finely, and in short all the roles are in capablt hands. There is satire, cyniclsm 4N philosophy in the lines, and after tho necessary mild beginning there is nt lagging in the entertainment.

II Horses Could Talk.

If horses could talk, those of us
who know them best have no doubt
as to some of the things they would
say. Mans inhumanity to them
would be the chief subject of their
conversation, at least IL they are half
as human as we thing Not only ow-
ners. breeders, drivers would hear a
few things much to their dicredit, but
cities and towns would be summoned
into court and charged with some of
the worst forms of cruelty from
which these faithful toilers have
suffered.
To require a locomotive to haul a
train of cars over a track that wrecks
It before half its days of usefulness
should be over, and then send II to
the scrap heap, is an economic folly.
To ask a horse to drag our heavy
loads of coal, ice iron, lumber-the
merchandise of all sorts by which
cities grow rich and great, over
streets that wear it out even before
It has reached its prime, is not only
economic folly, it is a cruelty that
not only horses but all decent men
must condemn.
OF nothing less than this are hun
d-eds of our American cities guilty
today. There are streets where, no
small part of the year, the pavement
is so slippery that it is torture for a
horse to travel on them. There are
others 80 full of holes, so uneven, so
wretchedly out of repair, that no
self-respecting horse, left'to himself,
would ever set foot upon them.
To he je-ked and pulled now. this
way, now that. because the loaded
wagon YOU are straining to drag to
it's destination sinks into holljw
or bangs into an elevation there;
60 &C home at night with feet bruised
and shoes torn off by such paw =

has been provided where the feet
could get a grip-if We were horses,
who of us would start union for
seif-protection, and strike before the
week was over?
Rut horses do not talk. Their Ian
guage is not audible, 1t is visible.
You see it in that swollen joint, that
sprained tendon, that limping gait,
which speak of the roads over which
men have made them travel.
Money? No money to put our
streets in order? We are robbing our
Taxpayers of their money by refus-
ing to do it-saving at the spigot
and wasting at the bunghole. We
are doing more. We are treating with
positive cruelty. every working day OF
the year, thousands of the most
faithful servants of our cities. with
out whom we should have no cities

lexington HERALD
OUT FOR MCDERMOTT
Says Liquor interests Procured
Boswortb's Withdrawal
For Stanley.


ington Herald edited by Desha
Breckenridge, who had supported Au-
ditor Henry NJ. Bosworth until his
withdrawal from the race, this morn
ing came out in strong plea for the
candidacy of Lieut.. Gov. McDermott
for the Democratic nomination for
| Governor.
The action of Mr.. Breckenridge
gives support to the impression, gen
eral here, that the withdrawal of Mr..
Bosworth would add greatly to the
strength of Mr.. McDermott, and it is
claimed by Mr.. McDermotts friends
that he will receive 80 per cent of
the Bosworth votes.
The belief is prevalent that Mr..
Bosworth's effort to throw his
strength to Mr.. Stanley has failed,
and the Stanley men are now won
dering whether they did not make
a serious blunder in persuading Mr..
Bosworth to get off the track.
Claims On Lexington.
The Herald in announcing it's sup
port of McDermott for the nomina-
| ton refers to Mr.. McDermott's
claims on Lexington, mentioning
among other things the part he
played in the settlement of the street
car strike; his advocacy of the move
ment for the purchase of Harris mas
terpiece, Woman Triumphant, and
his many indications of friendship
for the city.
The Herald then continues in re-
ferring to his address to be delivered
in Lexington tonight:
Time To Talk.
ut is well that Governor McDer-
mott should come to Lexington this
time, where there are reports cur
rent that men who profess to be his
supporters are circulating a petition
urging his withdrawal in favor of
the Hon. Owsley Stanley. In ways
that are dark and tricks that are
vain it seems the followers of Mr..
Stanley were peculiarly apt.
THAT any real friend of Governor
McDermott should inaugurate a move
| ment to induce him to withdraw, is,
of course, beyond reason. That the
same persons that induced the Hon.
Jim Edwards, a resident of Louisville
who was a candidate against Gov
ernor McDermott for Lieutenant Gov
ernor, and in whose favor votes were
fraudulently counted against Cover
nor McDermott four years ago. to run
again for Lieutenant Governor,
should now pose as Governor Nc
Dermott's friends here and attempt
to create the impression that he will
withdraw is not beyond reason.
Stanley's Support
There are, of course, many good
men supporting Mr.. Stanley. But the
most vicious element in every city,
including the city of Louisville and
the city of Lexington, the elements
that have done more to corrupt poll
tics, more to win elections by fraud
and bribery and corruption have
made most odious the liquor inter
ests because of the participation in
politics of the most vicious element
in the liquor interests, are solidly be-
hind Mr.. Stanley, whose nomination
would be hailed by that element as
victory would crystalline against the
liquor interest the solid public opin-
ion of those who believe in temper
ance, in honest elections and in the
enforcement of the law"
