FAVOR SELLERS AS
 !. DISTRICT DELEGATE

Judge Jordan Sellers of Morrilton, chancellor of the Ninth chancery dis trict, is being solicited by number of Conway friends to become a can- didate for delegate-at-large from the Fifth congressional district to the constitutional convention. The dis. trict, which includes Faulkner, Con- way and several other counties, will elect two delegates to the convention, in addition to the representative from eac hcounty.
 Judge Sellers is regarded as one of the most profound students of the law in Arkansas and his work as chancellor has excited the admiration of all who are familiar with it. His friends here declare that the district would be fortunate to have a man of Judge Sellers exceptional ability as one of its delegates.

SHOCK LAW WILL
 NOT BE REPEALED COMMITTEE AGAINST IT
House Committee on Agriculture Reports Hardy Measure RecOm-
 mending it Do Not Pass.
Special to the Log Cabin Democrat.

Special to the Log Cabin Democrat. Little Rock, Feb. 22.-The stock law district composed of eight town ships in Faulkner county, created at the November election, will not be abolished by the Arkansas legisla- tu1e, nor will the law under which it was created be repealed insofar as it l affects Faulkner county.
 The hard fight made on both sides
 of the proposition was finally set tied this morning when the house committee on agriculture reported adversely bill introduced by Rep- resentative Ii. B. Hardy to abolish the district. Dr. Hardy had previously agreed with both sides that the com mittee's report would settle the ques- tion and that if it was unfavorable he would make no further effort to pass the bill.
 The committee had under consid- eration two bills almost identical, one applying to Columbia county and the other to Faulkner. This morning a report was submitted stating that after careful consideration and an opinion on the legality of the meas ure by the judiciary committee, the agricultural committee had reached the conclusion that it was outside the jurisdiction of the legislature to dis solve district created by the people, and that the opponents, of the dis trict must seek their remedy through the courts, the report ending with the recommendation that both of the bills do not pass.
 The eight townships included in the Faulkner district are Walker, California, Union, Clifton, Hardin, East Fork, Cadron and Benedict. The vote on the question of establishing the district was rather close in the November election and a great deal of opposition to putting the stock law into effect had arisen. Today's action, however, is expected to end the controversy and those 'favoring the stock law will now have an op- portunity of giving it trial. The law becomes effective six months af- ter the November election, or May 8, 1917.

NORMAL BUILDING FUND IS SI00,000 THE BUDGET COMMITTEE Agrees to Appropriation of that Amount and Dr. Hardy Introduces
 a Substitute Bill.
Special to the Log Cabin Democrat.

special to the Log Cabin Democrat. Little Rock, Feb. 22.-According to an agreement reached between repre- sentatives of the Arkansas State Normal School and the budget con- mittee of the house, $1OO,OO0 will be appropriated for the main building of the Normal, unless the item is re- duced on the floor of the house or senate, which is not considered prob- able.
 Representative H. B. Hardy this morning withdrew the original Nor
 mai appropriation bill, which pro- vided $175,000 for the main building and equipment and introduced sub-
 stitute measure fixing $1O0,OOO for these items. The items for mainte- nance were unchanged from the ori ginal bill and were not cut by the budget committee. The new bill ap-
 propriates $92,5O0 for the building and $7,5OO for equipment and fur
 nlshings. Dr. Hardy stated today that he expected to call up the bill for final passage tomorrow.
 It was reported early this week that the budget committee had de- cided to cut the building item for the Normal to $60,000. This would not have been sufficient to construct building of the character absolutely needed for the school, and such strong pressure was brought by friends of the school in the legislature that the committee assented to the introduc- tion of substitute bill carrying $100,000.
 The State Normal School is the only state institution which will be given an appropriation for a build ing by the present legislature, it is stated.

vened in the afternoon there was a call for the Garrett bill creating the Arkansas utilities commission for the
 purpose of amendment. The senate was In an uproar, and the aisles were
 crowded with senators who milled about like cattle about the stampede. Senator Duty, angered at the gen
 eral attack, moved to indefinitely postponed the bill, for which he was
 largely responsible. There was op- position and Senator Duty withdrew hls motion, whereupon Senator Cab ines moved to table the entire bill. Chairman E. E. Wood of the Arkan- sas railroad commission, .who was seated in the chamber, with the other members scattered about in other parts of the room, rose at this point and advised President Davenport to permit the bill to be tabled, and it was, by a vote of 24 to 9.
 Taking a breathing spell of min ute the Vann oil inspection bill was passed and the fighting was resumed along the entire battle front when Senator King introduced a resolution to pay Mrs. Anna Pittman of Con- way, who has been serving as clerk of the bank and banking committee, and also as assistant journal clerk, $5 per day. Senator Goodwin offer ed as an amendment that al clerks and stenographers be increased also from $4 to $5 per day, saying one was as deserving as the other, and all have worked hard. The entire reso- lution was tabled.

UNIVERSITY BILL FIGHT IS STILL ON AMENDMENTS PENDING Senate Defeats Resolution to Increase Salary of Conway Young
 Woman Clerk.
Special to the Log Cabin Democrat.


 Little Rock, Feb. 22.-The univer- sity removal bill was amended in the senate today by striking the name of M. E. Dunaway and. substituting that of J. s. Maloney as one of the con- missioners. This gave the opposition to the measure a chance to offer an amendment restricting the expendi- lures of the university to four-ninths of a mill revenue, should the removal be consummated. When the senate recessed for lunch it was impossible to predict whether or not the amend ment would be adopted, the propo- nents of the measure securing post ponement of vote until afternoon. Senator Greenhouse today intro duced an anti-lobbying bill.
 The legislature will adjourn two weeks from today noon. At the pres ent rate of progress there will be several hundred bills left on the cal endar that have not been considered. Some persons so cynical as to re- mark that many of the bills should never have gotten as far as the cal endar, so nothing will be lost. Both houses of the legislature have passed bill to abolish the state capitol commission, and to make the secretary of state custodian of the state capitol. An effort was made in the house to substitute board composed of state officers, but this failed. The house adosted an amend ment limiting the number of em- ployes under the custodian.
 The house yesterday passed bill by MT. Doyle to appropriate $102,860 for the next biennial period for the purpose of aiding in extension work in agriculture and home economies under the provision of the Smith Lever act of congress. This will se- cure from the federal government $122,860 for the same period. There was much oratory expended on the proposition, and vigorous opposi- tion was led by Mir. Clark and others. After an amendment offered by MT. Ellis of Randolph and supported by Mir. Clack had been rejected, the bill was defeated by vote of 76 to IS, those voting in the negative being

I The every-member canvas policy of the church should be strictly ad. hered to by the pastors, it was urged. The funds thus collected are placed to the credit of the confer ence benevolence funds.
 It was urged upon by the conven- tion delegates that revival should be held in all of the districts of the conference during the summer months.
 The reports submitted by the va rious delegates showed that consid- erable progress is being made along all religious lines throughout the con- ference.
 While several delegates returned to their homes last night, quite a number remained over for the weekly preyermeeting service, which was conducted by Rev. T. M. Tollison, presiding elder of the Jonesboro dis trict.
