PREMATURE "RESULTS".

One thing Alaska has done far better than has been done outside, 1t has established a record for un certain elections. While month or SO ago Chas Sulzer was receiving with becoming and characteristic mo- desty congratulations upon his cleo tion, the Wickershamites were de- claring that such congratulation were indecently premature. Then came belated returns which indi- cated that Wickersham was the elected delegate and he in turn be- gan to accept congrau!atichs from his followers and the Sul2erites were chapfallen enough. Later the t;l"c,.el Board goes into session and after humming and having they pro- ceed to authorize count which shows 5nlzer iu the lead by %6.
 Thereupon the Sulzerites are again smiling with conteted victory and the Wick supporters are denouncing the board for all sorts of things. Anon the Board revises it's original count, adds here and substracts there and passes in other places, and Wickersham is in the lead by thirty odd votes The sunshine of Gladness that beamed upon the Sul- zerite camp is again overclouded with the Gloom of defeat and the hopes of the Wickershamites beat high with exultation. This is a funny old world, and not the least amusing thing about it is the long or the short face which the chloro- formed wage worker pulls when his man is or is not in the ascendant. AS if it matters a continental to them who rides their backs, just so that they are ridden?

uPHoLDs TAX OF 5 CENTS PER CUBIC YARD FOR SAND TAKEN
 FROM THE RIVER.
SUPREME COURT so DECIDES
Defendant Concern Claimed That Permission of War Department Ne cessitated Yielding of the
 States Authority.
Little Rock

Little Rock.-
 The Supreme Court awarded the State of Arkansas judgment for $99,- 44O against the Union Sand & Ma terial Company, in which the court held that sand and gravel lying in the bed of the Mississippi River between the center of the stream and the Ar kansas shore is subject to jurisdiction of the state
 The court upheld tax of cents per cubic yard on gravel and cents per cubic yard for sand removed from the stream by the sand and material company The suit was appealed from Desha county.
 Legislatures of 1913 and 1915 en- acted laws placing a tax on materials taken from beds of navigable streams of the state and requiring companies desiring to remove such materials to get permission from the attorney general and to pay required taxes for such.
 The Union Sand & Material Com pany, prior to taking any material from the Mississippi, got permission from the War Department, through the department engineer at Memphis, to erect plant on the bank of the stream, and set forth in it's answer to the states complaint that such per mission necessitated the yielding of the states authority.
 The Supreme Court overruled tine contention, holding that the permis- sion obtained from the War Depart ment did not include that of removal of sand and gravel The company al so attacked the suit on the ground that the Mississippi River is not an Arkansas stream. The Supreme Court held that that part of the river be- tween the center and the Arkansas side is amenable to Arkansas law as contemplated under the two statutes in question.
 The appeal of Aaron Johnson, De, sha county negro, convicted of par ticipation in the murder of J. M. Rutherford, a wealthy Pine Bluff planter, and sentenced to be electro cuted, was submitted to the court

J. OF 4. MEASURE
 CARRIES S375,0OO
APPROPRIATION INCORPORATING $t5,o0o MORE THAN TWO
 YEARS AGO PASSED.
FARM PURCHASE KILLED
$5O.ooo Measure Defeated Was For the Purchase of a 5oo-Acre Farm To Be Part of the University
 at Fayetteville.
Little Rock.

Little Rock The University of Arkansas profited through liberality of the House of Representative when the university appropriation bill, carrying items az gregating S15,000 more than the insti- tuition received two years ago. was passed with only six dissenting votes. The House sliced a $5o,000 project from the bill leaving appropriations totaling approximately S375,000 fer the 1917-1S biennial period. The ap- propriation bill has not been acted upon by the Senate.
 The $50,000 measure defeated was for purchase of a 500-acre, farm to be a part of the university, the bill pro viding that $15,000 of the purchase price be paid immediately and the re mainder stand as a debt against the State, to be paid in 1919 and to bear six per cent interest.
 The legislature of 1915 appropriate ed approximately $290,000 for the unl- versity, but Governor Hays pruning knife eliminated items by veto which brought the amount down to $225,000, approximately.

than any others in the house. The beamed ceiling in the dining room shows good taste and it makes the dining room similar to the living room. This is desirable because the two rooms are connected by the colonnade, giving an open run-together appear ance.
 The stairway to the second floor is conveniently located in the back part of the reception room, where also are two closets for coats. People enter ing from the side or rear often do so because of the dirt they bring into the house. The two closets and location of the stairway with respect to the side entrance allows such people to en- ter, hang up their coats and go direct ly upstairs without tracking their dirt through the house.
 Among things in the kitchen which would be appreciated by the house. keeper are the two windows over the sink and a place where the kitchen table might be placed. The exception ally large pantry between the dining room and kitchen would be appreciat- ed also. It is nearly IA feet long and about four feet wide. The refrigerator is placed in the end of the pantry next to the outside wall. A door is con- structed in this outer wall so that the refrigerator may be filled from the out side. This is convenient from many points of view.
 Going to the second floor it will be noted that the landing of the stairway is located in a bay of the house. This is, from an artistic point of view, al- ways looked on with favor.
 The hall has been centrally located so that it is not only convenient to go from one room to the other on the sec ond floor. but further than this, mini mum of space has been taken up and it is possible to have all of the other rooms larger.
 There are three bedrooms, sleep- ing porch and the bath off from this hall. Each of the bedrooms has nice large closets and from three to four windows, which allow plenty of light and make the rooms as cheerful as any Of the others in the house.
 A double door connects the sleep ing porch with the back bedroom. It can be entered either by way of this bedroom or directly from the hall. This makes it convenient to the bath or makes it possible to use it as an individual sleeping room when neces- sary.

other things which should be given earnest thought before anything defi- alte is decided on. They may add some To the cost, but this addition will be more than made up for by the addi- honal life of the house.
 Suppose your house cost $4,O0O and That by adding $100 to the cost of ma aerlal and workmanship you increase Inc life ten years. If the house lasted sO years, each year would show a de- Weciation of $50 in the $4,00O. Ten years' life in the house is, then, worth 9SOO. So note that by adding $10O to The original cost you can get the ten years of additional life, which is val ned at $500.

 The porch runs into terrace through what would be termed colon made in interior design. The terrace in front of the living room serves all the purposes of the muctadesired porch in front of the living room, In this way, however, there is no porch roof to obstruct the light coming through the windows into the living room.
 Entering the reception room from the porch, one window in front, two in the side and seat built in the corner by the stairway, give an inviting feel ing. This is further added to on en- tering the living room. With a nice

Dispute On Railroad Measure.


 The third controversy was over a bill by Senator Burgess making a change in passenger service on the Fort Smith road. The act requires the Iron Mountain to start passen- ger train each day from Glarksville, running to Little Rock, and returning to Clarksville, and to run a passenger train daily from Russellville to Fort Smith and return to Russellville, pro- vided that all stations along the rail road shall receive service equal to that now given them. At present Rus sellville is the starting point of the train MT Bell of Pope and MT. John son and MT Held of Fort Smith op- posed the bill, which they declared detrimental to their localities, while MT .Cazort of Johnson said that it would not injure any community, but would improve the passenger service of several towns which are now de- prived of adequate accommodations. MT Bell said 1t would cost the rail road $7,000 to start it and $100 day more to maintain the extra service, and MT Cazort replied that the rail. roads are offering no objection A similar bill was passed four years ago and vetoed by the governor. The bill passed.

 In the living room there are three large windows in group in front and two on the side, while in the dining room there are three large windows on the side. This makes both rooms nice and light, which is very desirable, since they are the two rooms occupied more

than things put into the design which make it unattractive.
 The more attractive home is always in greater demand. Demand regulates value, to some extent regardless of the original cost. Your home is an invest ment, as well as a thing you have pride in, and at some later time you may desire to sell it. When this time comes the more attractive house you have built will show a greater value of your investment.
 A greater value is what you look for in other investments. Why not em- body the idea in the home you are going to build? In addition, you will then have something of which you can be more plvud. Attractiveness is free, 80 don't neglect it.

A home to some extent shows how progressive and ambitious it's owner Is. If it is well designed and attrac- five the passer-by immediately con- eludes that the owner is a particular and ambitious man. If it simply con sits of four walls and roof it would rather quickly be said that the owner is content with small things and does not possess the ambition with which 10 advance.
 To have a home well designed and attractive does not mean, as might hastily be concluded, the most expen- siye home. Many features can be brought into design which make it attractive and are no more expensive

The author said the proponents of tho bone dry measure have decided not to mak. this matter specific but to permit the courts to decide on the question. Other provisions of the bill are similar to the one for which 1t was substituted.

There was little Variation in the morning session, which consisted of disposing of a mass of house bills, mostly local. Senator Collins varied the monotony once when bill af- fecting special school district came up for passage. While the roll was being called Senator Cabaniss, who had been otherwise occupied, asked what measure was being voted upon, when his name was reached.
 "It's little local bill to repeal the bone dry law" Senator Collins an swered in an off-hand manner. There was laugh as the author of the "drier-than-bone' bill voted aye"
