Little Rock, Nov. 13.-Any one who wishes to have local bill passed by the next legislature should be sure that it has been given the thirty days advance notice required by the consti- tuition. Governor Elect McRae is said to have advised some of the law makers that he will positively require all local bills to be advertised as contemplated by the constitution and that he will veto bills that do not meet this requirement. This will work a radical change in methods of legislation that have grown up in Arkansas during recent sessions of the general assembly, Only in rare instances have bills of a local nature

SHILO MAN ELOPES
 WITH SISTER IN-LAW

Aaron Kennedy, whose home is near Shiloh, Cleburne county, was arrest ed at Morrilton Saturday afternoon by Sheriff Kidd on charge of assault, the warrant for his arrest being sworn out by Dan Duncan of near Shirley, father of Eunice Duncan, the prose cutting witness. The alleged facts in the case, as reported to the Democrat, are about as follows:
 Kennedy is the son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. Duncan, having married their eldest daughter For some months past and until recently Eun.ce Duncan had been making her home with Kennedy and his wife. Kennedy, it seems, became infatuated with his sister-in-law and followed her return home determined to force her to elope with him.
 Friday morning last Kennedy ar rived at the home of his father-in- law, where he spent the day. The father and mother being apprised of his attentions to the girl gave no op- portunity for him to talk to her dur ing the day. Some time after supper Kenney, so it is alleged, entered the house with shotgun and under threats of killing the whole family and physical force compelled the girl to accompany him.
 During the night the two are said 10 have walked to Formosa. where they secured a car and were convey ed to Norrilton. It was there, while awaiting the arrival of train, that Sheriff Kidd overlook end arrested both, The eirl was restored to her parents, while Kennedy was lodged in jail at Marshall for safe keeping pending examining -rial before a Shin leE Jus.lee of the pace.

 Efforts of opponents of local meas ures to have the records show that the olll had not been advrtised, as pro- Vlded by law, have invariably been voted down and in several instances where such a statement was placed In Tn the journal, it was later expunged.

Two Alleged Medicines

The druggists of Burlington and winoo-
SKI were cleaned out of their stocks of
Gauvln's Cough Syrup" and "Gauyin's
syrup of Anise' Thursday by government
ofncials, who secured several hundreds of
bottles of the medicine during the day.
Inc alleged medicine is being seized under

Dr. Charles F. Whitney. INSPECTOR of
1000 and drugs in the federal service, sew
erai weeks ago made an inspection and
secured data and information concerning
these brands of goods. which was for
warded to headquarters. The analysis of
the cough medicine showed it to contain
10 per cent alcohol sugar, spruce gum and
wild cherry bark. The labels and adj
vertsing claimed that ii was a cure for
colds coughs. bronchitis and pulmonary
troubles.
Syrup of anise contained six Der cent
alcohol, a quarter of a grain of acetate
OF morphine to the ounce oil of anise and
water. This was advertised to cure sleep-
lessness, collie, dysentery, and to be espe-
clally beneficial to children
1t is claimed by the government that
the advertising and reading matter con-
tanned statements, designs. or devices re-
garding the curative and therapeutic
qualities which were fraudulent, and con-
stituted fake. No action will be taken
against the dealers. who are not held re-
sponsible for the goods any more than are
the merchants who sell other lines of
goods. Dr. Whitney and Deputy Marshal
u. +. Lackey made the seizures.
