CONFUSION REIGNS
AT STATE CAPITOL.
Decision of Supreme Court Invali
dates Number of Important Meas
ures Heretofore Regarded
as Safe.
(
Little Rock, July 17.—Everything is i
confusion in the Arkansas state house
over the controversy resulting in the
death of nearly 100 bills passed by the
last legislature. As one state officer
put it this afternoon, “There is not a i
man in the building who can tell what
bills became laws aud what measures
were killed by the recent decision of
the supreme court.”
It was discovered that the fate of
several important bills heretofore con
sidered safe are in doubt because they
had the signature of but one of the
presiding officers of the legislature.
Others were discovered having only
the signature of the governor, while
others were not presented to the gov
ernor in time. The bill providing for
the redigesting of the laws of the
state and appointing W. F. Kirby of
Texarkana digester are among tho
number now considered doubtful.
It is practically settled that the su
preme court’s decision settles the
controversy over the deaf mute ap
propriation bill, the second St. Fran
cis levee bond bill and the branch
normal school appropriation bill, and
the bill providing for special teach
ers’ examinations in cities of the first
class. The deaf mute appropriation
bill carried §140,000 for the mainten
ance of the school for two years from
April 1 last. Auditor Monroe has de
cided to issue no more warrants upon
that appropriation. He says the
court’s decision clearly places that
uui miiuug luuise tuctt arc ucau.
The St. Francis levee bond bill,
which authorized a second bond issue
of $250,000, the branch normal school
appropriation bill, and the special
teachers’ examination bill have met
the same fate. The two institutions
named will be closed unless the state
can borrow funds to keep them open
for the next two years, or Governor
Davis will be compelled to call an ex
tra session of the legislature to make
necessary appropriations. This, he
says, he will never do.
RAILROAD INCORPORATED.
The Hot Springs & Southwestern
Railroad Company Friday filed its ar
ticles of incorporation with the secre
tary of state. The company is or
ganized with a capital stock of $750,
000 and for the purpose of construct
ing a railroad from a point at or near
Moore’s Spur on the line of the Kan
sas City Southern Railway, in Sevier
county, to Hot Springs, passing
through the counties of Sevier, How
ard, Montgomery and Garland, a total
distance of seventy miles or there
abouts.
The directors of the company are G.
B. Shaw, E, E. Naugle, J. J. P. O’Dell,
H. C. Williamson, H. L. Howell and
A. Roth. The corporators are G. B.
Shaw, E. E. Naugle, John J. P. O’Dell,
Chicago; H. C. Williamson, E. Y.

DAVIS VERSUS VANDEVENTER.
Hope, July 17.—Gov. Davis and Mr.
Vandeventer spoke to an audience of
600 or 800 today at Spring Hill. The
governor spoke along his usual lines.
He touched up the recent legislature,
intimating that it had sold out to the
insurance companies, and he warned
the people against conventions, say
ing his opponents would try to down
him that way instead of by primaries.
He spoke one and a half hours, and
was followed by Mr. Vandeventer, who
spoke one and a half hours.
Mr. Vandeventer was hissed by
some of Davis’ men and a few of the
I noisy element. The impression of
several unbiased men is that Van
deventer’s talk made him votes.
CAPITOL COMMISSION
WANTS MONUMENT.
“The state capitol commission would
be only too glad to have the Confed
erate monument placed on the new
capitol grounds,” said Commissioner
| Z. T. Matthews of Jonesboro in Little
Rock Friday.
“I heartily second the suggestion
made by Mr. Donaghey. The new
building will be a center of interest
for visitors, and as the grounds are to
be handsomely laid off no more ap
propriate place for the monument
could be found. The commission
would be glad to have the grounds ar
ranged with a view to displaying this
monument as well as the new capitol
building.”

Headache
Facts.
Headache is almost an universal ailment; 86 per cent. jig
have it at least occasionally.
Headache could always be relieved by means of strong
opiates, but drugging a pain is not curing it.
It is now possible to cure a headache quicker than an
opiate will relieve it, and to cure harmlessly by removing
the cause. |§
SELLS’ HEADACHE POWDERS are a perfect rem
edy. They can’t harm. They relieve the severest head
ache in from 20 to 40 minutes. Price, 10 cents.
