Arkansas will get her constitu.

Arkansas will get her constitu- tional convention if the people in general take as avidly to the prop osition as our legislators do. It is surprise of the season that there was so little opposion to the meas ure. It is an indication, of course, that with the wet and dry issue divorced from legislative work. as has been done quite effectively by the people of the state, many good measures will be discussed and settled entirely on their merits. not with any reference to how or why they affect potenial prohibition or absolute prohibition. We have made the way clear and easy for much good legislation in Arkansas.
