ATLANTA At WAR
ON THE MIGRANTS
pool ROOM PESTS AND REGULAR
.LoRFERS MUST WORK OR
GO TO JAIL.

ATLANTA, May 10.-In connection
with the relentless war which Atlanta
police authorities are waging on blind
tigers and other violators of the new
prohibition laws, an equally vigorous
campaign has also been launched
against the Migrants, both black and
white, who have infested the beer sa-
looms, pool rooms and other favor
lite hang-outs of the sons of rest.
The male of voting age who neither
tolls nor spins and who can exhibit
no means of support nor give a sat.
isfactory account of himself will be
assigned to the pastime of making
little rocks out of big ones on the
city rock pile.
When he has completed thirty.
day sentence the city recorder will
invite him to hunt the country, where
the farmers are always looking for
able-bodied laborers, and if he declines
this invitation he will be re-assigned
10 the rock pile for another spell.
AS a part of the vagrancy cam
paign the police are keeping a spe-
cial eye on habitual blind tigers
Many of them are known to the po.
lice having been repeatedly fined for
violating the old prohibition law, and
whenever the police find them loaf
Ing on the streets they are placed un.
der arrest for vagrancy. In this way
the police make the blind tiger wa.
and the vagrancy war joint cooper
alive affair, each crusade assisting
the other.
A city councilman who is very anX-
lous to see the vagrancy laws strictly
enforced has started a movement t.
close all negro pool rooms decldr
ing they arG regular nests of va
grants.

Pardons Grant Marshall.

Governor Hays pardoned Grant Marshall of Johnson county, sentenced in May, 1915, to one year for grand larceny. Marshall was paroled sev- eral months ago. The governor re- stored citizenship to Lee Herstield of Johnson county, fined $20 and sen- fenced to five days in jail for petit larceny in 1908.
 A proclamation was issued relieving, Plainwood Taylor of Sevier county of serving three months of a jail sen- tence. Taylor was convicted of az gravated assault in January and sen- fenced to four months in jail and to pay fine of $50. He had served one month of his sentence The proclama- tion relieved him of serving the re- mainder of the sentence, but provides that Taylor shall pay the fine and costs.

Deputy State Labor Commissioner B. I. Mckinley has returned from a trip ot inspection through the counties of Craighead, Greene and Clay, where he made an inspection of all factories, laundries, sawmills and department stores in the interest of the enforce ment of the minimum wage, child la bor and saw and blaming mill hour laws. Only one general violation of the sawmill hour law was found and this he adjusted. No violation of the other labor laws was found. Deputy Mckinley left for Fort Smith, accom- panied by State Health Officer c. w. Garrison, where they will investigate the sanitary conditions of the mines in Sebastian and adjoining counties.

Little Rock

lJlGtle fOCk.-
 The next Legislature will very like ly pass a law amending the Arkansas statute relating to divorces. Several members of the Senate and house al ready nominated, who have been vis- iting the gubernatorial headquarters in Little Rock the past few days, stat ed they would introduce bills regulat- ing the divorce evil as existing in Arkansas. One of the members stat ed that he has already drafted a measure prohibiting parties who were divorced from remarrying until six years after the divorce has been granted, and making it a felony for any clergyman or officer of the law to perform a marriage ceremony unless the parties had been divorced more than six years. The large number of divorce petitions filed in the various chancery courts of the state during the past three years has caused a widespread sentiment for the enact ment of laws reducing the number of divorce cases to the minimum, and 1t is generally believed that this senti- ment will be crystalized into the pass age of an act by the next Legislature making the divorce evil a thing of the past in Arkansas. The clergymen of the state are also joining in the move ment.

May Amend Tax Laws.

Until the present tax laws of Arkan- sas are amended there can be no equalization of the basis of assessment in different counties, according to members of the State Tax Comm!s- sion. Assessments reports from 72 of the 75 counties indicate there will be little change in the range of as easements between 1914 and 1915. In 1915 the basis of assessment ranged from l69 per cent in Benton county to TAG per cent in Perry county.
