FIFTY BILLS
CONSIDERED
Lower House of Legislature Passed
Twenty Measures and Twenty
nine New Ones Are Introduced.
One Was Defeated.
Dispensing with roll call and fall
ing to work the House was able to
get a great deal of business transact
ed on the 27th. Twenty-nine bills
were introduced and twenty were
voted on and passed. One measure
proved unpopular and was defeated.
Messrs. Leigh, Dunaway and Jones
of Pulaski introduced House Bill No.
367, placing the Pulaski county offi
cers on salary. The bill was read the
first time. Mr. Dunaway moved to
suspend the rules and read the bill
a second time. The motion lost on a
viva voce vote.
Mr. Newton of Lonoke called up
House Bill No. 169, of which he is
the author, creating the office of tax
collector in Lonoke county. The bill
was read the third time and Mr. New
ton took the floor to speak in support
of the measure. He spoke briefly, say
ing the bill had been introduced early,
that plenty of time had teen given
to its consideration and that he had
a petition, very lengthy, endorsing the
bill. He closed by asking that it pass.
Mr. Bogard of Lonoke, a colleague
of Mr. Newton, spoke against the bill
and asked that it be defeated. This
discussion developed quite a warm
feeling between the Lonoke county
statesmen. The measure was defeat
ed by a vote of 45 to 23.
There was a discussion over House
Bill No. 336 (Thompson of Greene),
amending the act creating a special
drainage district in Greene and Clay
counties. Mr. Thompson spoke in fa
vor of the bill and Mr. Campbell of
Clay spoke against, the bill, stating
mat it woum taKe certain land out or
the district and thus deprive the dis
trict of certain revenue. Mr. Thomp
son explained that the land was not
benefited by the improvement district
and that it was being assessed for
something it did not get. Mr. Brown
of Independence was in favor of the
bill, declaring he did not believe it
right to make a section of the country
pay a tax from which it received no
benefits. Mr. Winn of Pulaski op
posed the bill on the ground that it
would deprive the district of $1,600
revenue, thus, in a way, impairing
the obligations made and assumed by
the district as a whole. The bill
passed.
The state capitol committee of the
House has reported unfavorably on
House Bill No. 251 (Johnson, by re
quest), which provides for the appro
priation of $500,000 for the completion
of the state capitol, the discharge of
George R. Mann as architect, the ap
pointment of new members of the
state capitol commission and making
other provisions in regard to the com
pletion of the new capitol. The com
mittee also reported unfavorably on
House Concurrent Resolution No. 24
(Winn), providing that steps be tak
en to ascertain on what terms Cald
well & Drake would be willing to set
tle with the state. Without recom
mendation, House Bill No. 165
(Hurst), providing for the discharge
of George R. Mann as capitol archi
tect, authorizing the governor to em
ploy an architect, who would be under
the direction of the governor, the lat
ter to have the power to discharge
him if he sees fit, fixing the archi
tect’s bond at $50,000, and appropriat
ing $25,000 to be used in paying the
architect and a superintendent of con
struction if the governor sees fit to |
employ such a superintendent, was
reported.
A bill was introduced by Mr. Winn
of Pulaski regulating the telephone
• rates in Little Rock and Argenta, pro
* vides that it shall be unlawful for any
telephone company to charge more
than $3.50 per month for any busi
ness telephone, or $1.50 for any resi
dence telephone in either Little Rock
or Argenta. It also provides that it
shall be unlawful to exact more than
one month’s telephone rent for a bus
iness phone in advance or two
months’ rent for a residence phone.
The bill provides that any violation
shall be deemed a misdemeanor, pun
ishable by a fine of from $50 to $300.

LEGISLATIVE ITEMS.
The joint resolution Introduced in
the House by Mr. Granger of Carroll,
providing for an amendment to the
constitution which, in turn, provides
for statutory state-wide prohibition, it
is declared, is a submission measure
on which the question of constitution
ality of procedure cannot be raised.
It has been argued by some that it
would be illegal to submit the ques
tion of state-wide prohibition to a
vote of the people and that such ac
tion could not be taken under the pro
visions of the constitution. The reso
lution introduced by Mr. Granger
would have to be voted upon first by
the people and would in itself provide
for an amendment to the constitution.
The bill introduced in the House
bjr Messrs. Winn and Spillers provides
for “the establishing and maintenance
of one or more sanatoria or colonies
in Arkansas for the care and treat
ment of indigent persons suffering
from tuberculosis, cancer and other
incurable diseases and making an ap
propriation therefor.” The appropria
tion is $50,000.
The bill first calls attention to tu
berculosis and other incurable diseases
and also to the organization of the
Department of Health in Arkansas.
The bill then provides that "one or
more sanatoria or colonies be estab
lished in the state for the reception
and treatment of indigent persons af
fected with incipient tuberculosis, and
those so far advanced with the same
disease and other incurable diseases
that may be made comfortable and re
moved from their families and the peo
ple at large to prevent the spread of
contagion.”
- u. „ ol
Gann bill have raised the question that
(he legislature has no authority under
the constitution to submit a bill to
the people. The claim is made the
legislature would be delegating legis
lative power and that the constitution
does not so provide. Lawyers of rec
ognized ability in the legislature say
they do not believe the point is well
taken.
Following the request of those inter
ested in zinc mines in north Arkansas,
a concurrent resolution will soon be
prepared and passed by the Arkansas
General Assembly, asking Congress to
place a tariff on zinc. Those interest
ed in the zinc mines claim the future
of the industry in the state is wholly
dependent upon the tariff.
Mr. Holt of Hempstead has given no.
tice that he would move to reconsider
the vote by which the House joint
resolution providing for the creation
of the office of lieutenant governor
was defeated. This measure was de
feated by a close vote, and it is be
lieved it has a chance of passage on
reconsideration.
Senator Bush, in speaking about the
passage of the Bellamy bill, said that
he believes agricultural schools will
be the means of drawing the youth
•closer to the heart of nature.” The
senator has taught school in Arkansas
for many years. He says that he
has observed that some very simple
questions about plant life cannot be
answered even by men who have spent
their life in cultivating the soil. He
thinks the study of the whys and
wherefores in plant life will attract
persons to farm life.
“One thing is certain,” said the
senator, “the youth of our state must
be taught to cultivate the soil intense
ly. Every acre must be made to pro
duce its full capacity and means used
to keep that acre always productive.”
The joint committee on the State
Xorrnal School returned well pleased
from Conway, where the Normal
School was investigated. The commit
tee has prepared a very favorable re
port on the condition of that institu
tion and recommends a “liberal appro
priation” for its maintenance. The re
port states that the school now has a
membership of 156, that “the spirit is
excellent,” and compliments the school
in the highest terms.

tion to the rule prohibiting smoking on
the floor of the House and ordered
the janitor to install chairs in the
cloak room for those who desired to
smoke while the House was in ses
sion. The chairs wrere installed and
within a half hour the cloak room
was fairly well filled with members
enjoying a short puff or two. The
cloak room is now the regularly or
dained smoking apartment of repre
sentatives during business hours.
Many members objected to smoking
on the floor of the House on the
ground that it made them sick.
If the bill by Messrs. Little, Parks
and White becomes a law, the bill al
ready having passed in the House, it
will be unlawful for any person to
manufacture or sell within this state
alcohol or any intoxicating liquors of
any kind, where the same are used
and drunk as a beverage.
Any person who violates the provis
ions of the act shall be deemed guilty
of a t isdemeanor and on conviction
shall be fined in any sum not less than
$100 nor more than $500, and shall be
confined in the county jail not less
than three months nor more than one
year.
One senator who voted aye on tne
abolition of the state capitol tax, ex
plained his vote as follows:
‘ Believing as I do that this legisla
ture is not going to provide for the
completion of the new state capitol,
and that therefore there will be no
need for the capitol tax, I believe
that we should not take this money
from the people and pile it up in the
treasury. If the legislature before
adjournment can agree on a capitol
bill then we can make a new levy.
Therefore I vote aye.”
A LITTLE KNOWLEDGE
Of Painting Requirements Will Save
Much Expense.
When one sees the surface of a
house or other building scaling, or
peeling, or spotted or blistered, or
showing other symptoms of paint “dis
ease,” it is evident that a poor painter
has been on the job, and that poor
paint was used—or possibly that a
good painter had been dominated by
a property-owner who knew nothing
about paint.
It is an easy matter to be informed
on paint and painting. A complete
painting guide, including a book of
color schemes, either for exterior or
interior—specifications for all kinds
of painting,—and an instrument for
detecting adulteration in paint ma
terial, with directions for using it,
may be had free by writing National
Lead Company, 1902 Trinity Bldg.,
New York City, and asking for House
owner’s Painting Outfit No. 49.
Then, every houseowner should
make it a point to get only well
known reliable brands in buying his
materials. Pure white lead is espe
cially important, or the paint will
not prove satisfactory. The famous
“Dutch Boy Painter” trademark of
National Lead Company, the largest
makers of pure white lead, is an ab
solute guarantee of the purity and
quality of the white lead sold under
it. That trademark is a safeguard
against paint trouble.

Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegeta*
