CAPITAL CITY WEDDING.
| -
Miss Eva Thornburg Married to Mr.
Robert Payne Ramsey at Home of
Bride’s Parents In Little Rock.
Miss Eva Thornburg was married to
Robert Payne Ramsey at 11 o’clock
yesterday morning at the home of the
bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. George
Thornburg, at 1624 Spring street, says
the Little Rock Gazette. The cere
mony was performed in an especially
impressive manner by Rev. J. M.
Workman of Benton, brother-in-law
of the bride, and Rev. T. Y. Ramsey,
pastor of the Winfield Memorial
church, father of the groom. The
wedding was marked for the
beautiful simplicity which character
ized every detail of the pretty affair.
The house was tastefully decorated in
white and pink roses and soft spring
greeneries. The strains of Mendels
sohn’s wedding march, as played by
Miss Lila Ashby, a life-long friend of
the bride, announced the coming of
the bridal couple, who entered the
double parlors together and took their
places under a pretty pink and white
wedding bell, facing the two minis
ters, who performed the ceremony.
The bride was very pretty in her
dainty wedding gown of white tucked
organdy, elaborately ^trimmed with
Irish point lace, confined at the waist
with a sash of white peau de soie.
She carried a pretty arm bouquet of
bride roses. There were no attend
ants. The ceremony was performed
in the presence of the immediate
families of the contracting parties
i anH tl minilior nf fpionHu nrnmitimif
in the social circles in this city, and
elsewhere, who showered good wishes
and congratulations upon the young
couple, who were also the recipients
of a number of handsome wedding
gifts. Among those was a handsome
rememberance from the aged widow
of the late Bishop Payne of the
Southern Methodist church, whose
name the young groom bears. After
the ceremony the bride changed her
wedding gown for a stylish going
away gown of dark blue voile, trim
med with bands of blue silk of the
same shade and a hat of Tuscan straw,
with a wreath of dark-blue field flow
ers. Miss Thornburg is the youngest
daughter of Hon. Geo. T lornburg and
.he groom is the eldest son of Rev.
and Mrs. T. Y. Ramsey, and holds a
responsib'e position with the Arkan
sas Methodist Publishing Company of
this city. Mr. and Mrs. Ramsey left
at 1 o’clock for Hot Springs, where
their honeymoon will be spent, after
which they will return here and be at
home to their friends at 1624 Spring
street.
COMMISSIONERS SELECTION
PROMISES A CONTEST.
The governor evidently proposes a
fight on the selection of capitol com
missioners. lie contends that this
authority is his under the constitution
and laws. The building of anew state
capitol has thus far been delayed
through his tyrannical efforts to di
rect this work. But he is carrying
hie “rule or ruin” policy too far and
the sentiment of the people is timely
expressed in the passage of the Merri
man bill over his veto, in the house
by a vote of 70 to 10 and in the senate
by an equally emphatic approval of
24 to 8.
Davis vetoed the Merriman bill for
the very reason that his power of ap
pointing was curtailed, yet the very
enactment which he refuses to trans
mit to the secretary of state or recog
nize in any way after its legal enact
ment, he hastens to take advantage
of upon one score, while questioning
its legality on another.
If the Merriman bill oversteps the
constitutional rights of the legislature
in refusing the governor the preroga
tive of appointing the capitol com
missioners, then it is null and void
and no legislation has been accomp
lished nor appropriation made for the
completion of the capitol building.
But this the governor virtually denies
in his hurried action to name a com
mission. His real purpose is to furth
er olock the progress of this much
needed work and throw the matter
into the courts, as they must pass up
on the appointment of the capitol
commissions, the one named by the
governor and that to be selected by
the legislature.

the board of state capitol commission
ers, although the act expressly pro
vides that the commissioners shall be

also passed the bill over his veto by a
vote of 24 to 8.
A short time thereafter there was
filed in the secretary of state’s office |

provisions. By virtue of the power
vested in me by the constitution and
laws of this state as governor of the

nate and appoint you as one of the
five state capitol commissioners cre
ated by said act.
1 trust you may find your way clear
to accept this position and to faith
fully carry out and perform the duties
incumbent upon you as one of said
commissioners.
Yours very truly,
Jeff Davis, Governor.

Up to the time the senate adjourned
at 5 o’clock no communication had
been received from the governor
giving notice of the appointments and
asking that they be confirmed. ^
Meanwhile, the bill was present^!
to the governor yesterday by the
proper legislative authorities, to be by
him filed in the secretary of state’s
office. Chairman Rodman of the
house committee on enrolled bills re
ported to the house that the governor
declined to receive the bill, and that
it was then delivered by Senator

retary of state.
