JUDGE ROBERTSON
ASKS REELECTION
JURIST WHO HAS SERVED THIS
DISTRICT AS CHANCELLOR II
YEARS AGAIN OFFERS FOR RE-
SPoNSIBLE POSITION.

Judge +. ID. Robertson, for twenty
one years chancellor of this district
this week makes formal announce
ment of his candidacy for reelection
to the important and responsible po-
sition which he has so long and
efficiently filled. Judge Robertson
was appointed chancellor by Gov.
Dan w. Jones on June "a, 1897,
when this chancery district embraced
all the eleven counties in this con-
gressional district. Judge Robertson
was elected to the full term
in 1898, again in 1902 and in 1906.
In 1911 the district was divided,
Judge Robertson retaining the lower
tier of counties, and Judge Chas. ID.
Frierson being appointed to the chan
cellorship of the upper tier of coun-
ties. In 1912 Judge Robertson was
again elected to the bench, and at
the expiration of his present term
he will have served continuously on
the bench for twenty-one years. If
Judge Robertson is again elected to
the bench, at the expiration of his
next term he will be 50 years of age
-one year under the age limit at
which members of the United States
supreme court retire Judge Robert
son is an exceptionally alert and
active man for his age, and is keen
and vigorous in mind.
His long and honorable record on
the bench Is without a mar or
blemish. He lives by a strict code of
morals and conducts the affairs of
his court with decorum and dignity.
He is well liked by the members of
the bar for his absolute fearlessness,
his fairness, his incisiyeness, his
legal learning and the excellent man
ner in which business is dispatched
in his court
1t is not probable Judge Robertson
will have any opposition for re-elec-
ton. Those who have dealings with
his court, either as attorneys or
litigants, are more than satisfied
that no district in Arkansas has an
ADLER, cleaner or more conscientious
chancellor than has this district in
the person of Judge Robertson.

yestigated with a view to submitting
his franchise ordinance to the voters
for approval or disapproval at the
coming city election. However, the
law states that the petition asking
a vote on the initiated ordinance
must be filed at least four months
before the time fixed by law for the
general election, and in view of the
fact the general city election is to
be held on the first Tuesday in
April, the time limit for filing initia
tive petitions has expired. He stated
however, he would have the matter
further investigated by attorneys in

way to get the matter submitted to

themselves, concluding with the
statement that his company would

t. T. Reynolds of Paragould, SUI
perintendent of plants for the Ark

came here yesterday thinking he
would get here in time for the coun-
ell meeting He stated to the editor
of the Courierlndex that his COM
pany would make every effort to
improve the service here and thought
1t very likely that the construction
of a high power transmission line
from Pine Bluff to Stuttgart now
well under way. would result in
taking a good boiler out of the
Stuttgart plant and installing it here.
He thought the transmission line to
Stuttgart would be completed within
the next sixty days. after which
time the Stuttgart boiler would prob
ably be available for service here.
Mr. Reynolds expects 10 spend sew
eral days in the city going over the
local situation thoroughly with a
view TO taking steps to improve the
service

COUNCIL REFUSES FRANCHISE
TO NEW LIGHT COMPANY
Continued from first page)

Questioned as to the increase in
revenues resulting from the recent
boost in rates, Mr. Harris said the
gross revenues for November were
approximately $500 in excess OF
the revenues for October. He claim
ed. however, the company expended
81 200 for coal in October and Sl,70O
in November Questioned further by
Alderman Miller, Mr.. Harris admitted
the cost of coal in November was no
higher than in October. He said the
gross revenues from the sale of
electricity averaged $4,000 month,
or $4,000 year.
Secretary Maclin McClintock of
the board of public works suggested
the machinery at the plant was poor
" installed and that there was a
big loss of energy in transmission.
MIR. Harris stated that there Is
always some loss in transmission,
that ten per cent loss is considered
low and a twenty per cent loss is
regarded as high. He admitted the
loss at the local plant would approx
innate twenty pre- cent but denied II
would go to sixty or seventy per
cent. as suggested by Mr.. McClintock-
After listening to the running fire
discussion the council, just before
adjournment, passed resolution di
recting the city attorney to serve
legal notice on the officials OF the
Arkansas Light and Power Company
that if steps are not taken 10 put
the service in good shape within
thirty days. the council will proceed
to revoke the franchise.
The council passed a resolution
offering S. s. McGill, former man
ager of the local light and power
plant, the position of superintendent
of the municipal waterworks system
at a salary OF 500 per month. II
will be Mr. McGilPs duty TO take
complete charge of the system, with
the exception of looking after the
actual pumping of the water, which
is done by the Arkansas Light and
Power Company. He will see that
the leaks are stopped, the water con
served, that all bills due the city
for water are paid, and will exercise
general supervision over the plant
It is not known whether or not Mr.
McGnl will accept the position.
Following the adjournment OF the
council Mr.. Brader, representing the
Citizens Service Company, said he
had no desire to offend any member
of the council who voted against
granting his company franchise
but that he was still Of the opinion
that eighty per cent of the patrons
of the local light plant were favorable
to the ordinance giving him the right
to build a competing plant. He had
