Another contest was staged by Rep
resentativos Trawick Of Pulaski and
Waggoner of Lonoke over a bill by
Senator Owens to validate and cure
irregularities in the organization Of
Road Improvement District No. 7, in
Eagle township Pulaski county. Mr..
Waggoner declared that the district
affected his county and that 80 per
cent of the people in the district had
petitioned him to have the bill de-
feated. MIR. Trawick said that AZ out
of 72 property owners had signed the
petition for the district, and that a
majority in value and acreage also
favor it. He said that all the act does
is to validate the wishes of the people.
The bill passed, by vote of AZ to 8.

The Senate passed the Shockley
bill for the Little Rock and Hot
Springs highway improvement district
through which 1t is proposed to build
a modern highway between the Ar
kansas health resort and the State
capital. The measure went through
without opposition, even to the ex-
tent of a floor debate.
The Senate also passed the Davis
warehouse board of supervision and
marketing bureau measure While
there was some discussion as to it's
merits, there was no serious objec-
ton to it and it passed by good ma
jority.
A bill providing a penalty for de-
facing United States or State flags,
introduced by Senators Carruth ard
Carter at request of Confederate and
Federal veterans, was passed without
opposition.

somewhat similar to Senator Bush's
famous Senate bill No. &C." which
has already met the fate of "stinging
legislation" While Senator Burgess
is author of the bill, there was evil
dence at the time it was introduced
that plenty of opposition would be
forthcoming, so the fact that the Rus
sellville legislator is author and is
accused of bribery, is not necessarily
the cause for the adverse report as
viewed by most senators.

Few Now Care to Walk.

1t is hardly too much to say that
the automobile as she is at present
driven has made walking for pleasure
or walking for health-walking of
every sort, in fact, except mere pave

dashes for the shelter of the nearest

source of annoyance and perpetual
discomfort instead of pleasure.-Ex-
