VOLUME IV. NEWPORT, ARKANSAS. THURSDAY. JANUARY 19. 1905. NUMBER 226.
SENATE ADOPTS
ORIGINAL BILL.
Davis-King Anti-Trust Measure
Again Passed by Senate—
Again Up to the House.
The original Davis-King bill
\ was reintroduced and passed by
the senate Wednesday by a vote
af 26 to 4, the opposing senators
4>eing Gray, Rison, Toney and
Legate. It was all done in a
hurry, as shown in the language
of one of its advocates, who
said, “Let’s get rid of it before
Gov. Davis can administer a
sleeping potion to it.”
In the house a weak opposition
will seek to amend by exempting
labor unions and horticultural
associations, but there is little
doubt of its passage without the
dotting of an “i” or the crossing
of a “t.”
That a school for the reforma
tion of incorrigibles, either male
or female, is to be established in
4 Arkansas there is no doubt, in
| sofar as the Thirty-fifth general
I assembly has a voice in the mat
I ter. Four bills for the establish
5 ment of such an institution have
1 already been introduced.

trict was made chairman of the
