indulge the presumption that such no
tiCe was given as reqired. The effect
Of this construction of the law has
been that each session of the legisla-
ture is flooded with local bills, and
practically no consideration can be
given to them by the Legislature. AS is
we'll known, they are passed as Il mat
ter Of course, sponsored and under
stood only by members Of legislature
of the county affected by them. This
practice has grown to such an extent
that il has become Il real menace.
Not only does it require Il great deal
Of time Of the legislature, but oft
times Legislation not local in nature
if hurried through the session with
out that due consideration which the
questions involved justly deserve.
Apart frCm the above suggestions.
the people of each community are en-
titled to be advised in advance of the
nature of the local bill which will be
introduced in the legislature. There
is no way for Il practical handling OF
this question except through an
amendment to the constitution. If
the governor should veto the local bill
because it might appear from outside
sources that the notice had not been
given, it would be easy for the men,
bership, nearly all of whom have To-
cal bills in which they are Interested,
to pass the measure over the COVER
nor'S veto. Besides, if the courts in
dulge in the presumption that the
required notice was published, is not
the governor within his rights in do
ing the same thing?
I
constitution requiring the publica-
ton of notice of all local measures
before the Introduction of at least
thirty days. 1t would seem that thir-
ty days. instead of sixty days. as IS
now required. would be sufficient But
the publication of such notice. the
certified copy thereof, should be
spread upon the journals of each
branch of the legislature In other
words, the Legislative Journals them
selves should be required to show af.
firmatively that the required notice
was given. If affirmative evidence of
the publication of notice is required
to be spread upon the Journals, we
will have Il cure for the dangerous
practice now prevailing.
STATE PRISON FARM
| believe that Il state prison farm
is necessary, and we have at Raj
ford, in Bradford county, an institll-
ton which, il properly handled, can
be made to efficiently serve the pur-
post OF its creation. We have 1883
acres of land and nearly 1000 acres
of which are now under cultivation,
the remaining acreage being largely

 Following are the shipments as out lined by MT. Watson:
 Shady Grove, 20 cars of canta- loupes, 50 cars of watermelons; the new association at Deanyville, 30 cars of cantaloupes; Dunlap, 35 cars of cantaloupes, 20 cars watermelons; Blevins, 65 cars cantaloupes and 20 cars watermelons; Dotson, 45 cars cantaloupes; Belton, 40 cars canta- loupes; Tokio, 15 cars cantaloupes. The above stations being in charge of H. M Stephens of Blevins, shipper.
 Arcadia, 40 cars cantaloupes and 50 cars watermelons, in charge of B. T. Ward of Arcadia, shipper.
 Deanyville, old association, 30 cars cantaloupes and 15 cars watermelons, in charge of w. T. Yarberry of Dea- nyville, shipper.

 There are about $50 acres of toma- toes in the vicinity of Dunlap, Blew ins, Shady Grove and Arcadia which will be handled by L. H. Thomas of Prescott, the majority of the acreage being around Dunlap.
 All of these shipments are carried over the Prescott & Northwestern Railroad to Prescott, where they are transferred to the main line of the Missouri Pacific.

 HANDLE MUCH
 TRUCK THIS YEAR
A Total of 1,276 Cars of Fruit and Truck Will Probably Be Handled This Season by the Prescott & Northwestern R. R. From Points Along the Line.

With no further handicaps in wea- ther conditions along the line of the Prescott & Northwestern Railroad, the fruit and truck shipments this year will be one of the best in years, according to E. J. Watson agricul- turist of the road, who keeps a close watch on the crop and orchard con ditions in and out of season.
 Mir. Watson stated today that a conservative estimate on the number of cars of fruit and truck to be handled by the road this year places the figure at 1,276, including carload lots and broken shipments which go forth by express. The present wea- ther is very favorable to the crops, and all along the route of the road the prospects for a full harvest are very encouraging, the shipments of canta- loupes, however, will be little late and will not start probably before the latter part of July.
 Some idea of the magnitude of a season's shipments such as will be made this year can be gained by the following illustration: If these 1,276 car loads of fruit and truck were

SOUNDS WORLD
 ON DNARMING
Several Nations Reply to Con- ference Suggestion of Presi- dent Harding-NOthing Defi- mite Done.

Washington, June 10-Informal responses of a favorable character have been received here from several of the governments to which the United States recently addressed in- formally the suggestion for interna- tional negotiations regarding disarm- ament.
 Although nothing of definite char acter has been done in the way of actual diplomatic discussions, the in- timations received here are under stood to have encouraged the admin istration in it's preliminary steps to- wards a disarmament conference. It was indicated today that considerable time might be required to actually bring such a conference about, but that officials thought the situation was developing as rapidly as could reasonably be expected.
 It was not reveiled from what na- tions the responses had come nor ex- actly how definite they had been. Since the subject was preached by this government, however, officials have been careful to describe it as wholly informal and as intended only to lead up to more concrete discus sion later.

[s,ial to The News.
 ,ittlo Rock. June 11.-Governor ,p.p late yesterday afternoon an ar,ed tine appointment of w. B. ,msn of Nashville as a member of hoard of Trustees of the Third k.trict Agricultural School at Mag |,ro to succeed J. E. Rogers. It is R,imad that there is no record of {, Rogers ever having taken the [tb of office. It was stated in the |rernOr's office that no further ap- l,mtments on the board are being I,,sdered at this time.
 comprehensive audit of the .ols and records of the school was ! sd vesterday evening with the gov |ror by State Comptroller Van D. lms This report is purely financial ,d is not concerned with the question ! o whether or not the expenditures re made with the knowledge and Lnsent of the board. The board |hims that many of the expenditures, ! IAch were responsible for the in- Ibtedness, were not specifically or ,sd or consented to. The report ives the following conclusions:
 First, an indebtedness of $21 ,959.43 ss created during the fiscal year |sls-l92O. The main causes were the rpendture of $44O2.25 in excess of ls income in connection with the nsmery; an excess expenditure over home of $7,S03.13 in the dining hall rcunt; the erection of potato mse which cost about 1000; and
 e purchase of about $10,000 worth equipment. The equipment and |dding are there to show for them dives, of course, but the expenditures n them helped create the deficit.
 End, A creamery was installed at N school and the operation during ne and one-half years caused a loss
 the school of $9,217.7O.
 srd A dairy herd, which was pur- biased by MT. Austin, was paid for
 selling milk from the herd to the aoO creamery and applying the proceeds on the purchase price of the atte, This was a clear gain to the
 AoOl but of course would not have zen possible except for the creamery M the loss on the creamery more ian offset this gain.

Special to The News.

Special to The News.
 Little Rock, June 1.-The gover- nor's office was flooded Thursday and yesterday with telegrams, chiefly from New York state, protesting against the execution of the Elaine negroes, and appealing to him for a reprieve. The governor, however, answered none of these messages, which came from individuals and of ficers of organizations, some of which were said to represent many thous- ands of people He said that the en- tire matter is now in the hands of the courts.
 Chancellor Martineau deferred hear ing of the petition for an injunction Friday afternoon until after the su- preme court has acted Monday on the States petition for a writ of prohibi- tion. In the event the supreme court should deny the writ, it will then be the duty of the governor to fix an- other date of execution and under the law he may if he so desires, fix the date for any time, even the day i'm mediately following, or on Tuesday. He has, however, given no intimation whatever of what his action may be.
