FAVOR NEW CONSTITUTION
Sentiment Seems to Be Growing In
 Favor of New COnStitiOn.

Little Rock, Feb. 6.-(SpecfaD .- The sentiment favoring a new consti- tuition continues tC grow and it is be- lieved that another week or ten days will witness the passage of the bill providing for the calling of conyen- tion to draft it. The bill has already passed the Senate, where it failed two years ago, and is making progress in the house. Governor Brough is back of the movement, and is urging his friends to support the movement. The only differences that exist this time are as to the representation, and that it matter Of detail rather than prin ciple.
 The plan is to have an election of delegates on June 26, and for the holding of the convention during the winter months, beginning November 19 The convention would last two or three months because it's work would be for generations, and must necessar- lv be made as nearly amendment proof as fallible man can make it. The constitution as finally adopted, would be substituted to the people for their ratification at special election, where it would be the only subject voted on, and ratification would require only a majority vote.
 It is an administration measure. Governor Brough said in his inau- gr.l message, "after a careful study of cur neeas s and the conditions pre- yalert in the ate, l am firmly con- v.rced that Arkansas needs new gov ernmental garments and that the pa oh work of the initiative and refer endum will no longer suffice to make some of our threadbare political nec- essities presentable.
 '"The keynote of the present is ex- pansion, rather than contraction pro- gress, rather than limitations; con- fidence in our lawmakers and public servants, rather than suspicion of hem"
 The governor estimates that a three months session would cost not more than $70,O00, which is $7707 less than the publishing the I. and R. amend monts in 1913.
