AWFUL GRAVEL ATTACKS
Cured by Doan’s Kidney Pills After
Years of Suffering.
F. A. RIppy, Depot Ave., Gallatin,
Term., says: ' “Fifteen years ago kid
ney disease attacked
me. The pain in my
back was so agoniz
ing I finally had to
give up work. Then
came terrible attacks
of gravel with acute
pain and passages of
blood. In all I
passed 25 stones,
some as large as a
bean. Nine years of this ran me down
to a state of continual weakness, and
I thought I never would be better un
til I began using Doan’s Kidney Pills.
The improvement was rapid, and
since using four boxes I am cured and
have never had any return of the
trouble.”

Holland Wins Contest.
The Holland-Boles senatorial con
test was settled by the Senate elec
tion committee, when, after an exhaus
tive examinatii n of the records and
testimony in tne case and a lenghty
hearing of the final arguments by
the attorney's the committee arrived
at a report in favor of Senator Hol
land.
All of the members of the committee
feel that they have given this case
every attention to the minutest detail,
and they have given the contestants
four lengthy hearings. They not qnly
listened to all the argument brought
out by the attorneys, but questioned
the principals and attorney’s to secure
details not shown in the testimony.
For Removal of University.
Senator Keel of Jackson county
sprung a surprise on the Senate when
he introduced a bill for the removal
of the State University of Arkansas
from Fayetteville to Little Rock.
To say that the bill created a sen
sation is putting it rather mild. Sev
eral senators had a “hunch” that such
a bill would probably be introduced,
but the majority learned of it for the
first time as the clerk read the bill
from the secretary's desk.
The bill provides for the removal
of the university to Little Rock if
that city shall deposit with the state
treasurer the sum of $100,000 in cash
or improvement bonds, with $25,000
additional for the purchase of a site
for the university.
It further provides that upon the re
moval of the school to tne capital
the buildings occupied by the present
school shall be taken possession of by
the State ad converted into a lunatic
asylum.
In addition to the $125,000 given by
the people of Little Rock, the bill
calls for an appropriation of $150,000
from the state treasury for the pur
pose of building and equiping the in
stitution.
Occupation Tax Bill Presented.
A bill providing for the levying of
an occupation tax on corporations
operating in Arkansas was introduced
in the house by Mr. Smith of Asnley.
Briefly, the bill provides: That ail
corporations doing business by rail
road or water shall pay to the treas
urer of the state a sum equal to 2 1-2
per cent of the grqss recepits of the
organization; that all telegraph lines
snail do the same; that all electric
light, gas or water plants shall pay
one-fourth of one per cent or one
half of one percent of the receipts,
according to the size of the town; that
collecting agencies shall pay one-half
of one percent; that individuals, com
panies, corporations or associations re
siding outside the state or incorporat
ed under the laws of any other state
or territory owning stock cars or
other kinds of cars, shall pay three
per cent;that pipe line companies shall
pay two per cent of the gross receipts;
that sleeping car companies shall pay
three per cent; that the insurance
companies shall pay three and other
classes of insurance companies two
per cent; that wholesale dealers in
coal or mineral oils shall pay two per
cent; that interurban companies shall
pay one per cent, or three-fourths of
one per cent; that wholesale dealers
or distributers of intoxicants shall pay
one-half of one per cent; that owners
of coal mines shall pay three per cent;
that sawmill operators shall pay three
per cet; that other mill operators
shall pay one per cent; that publish
ing companies shall pay one per cent;
telephone companies shall pay one and
one-half per cent; that terminal com
panies shall pay one per cent.
The bill provides penalties for fail
Pay Day Bill Passes.
A prolonged flghe over the bi-month
ly pay day bill, resulting in the pas
sage of the bill. The flght opened
immediately after the reading of the
journal and the bill finally passed by
a vote of 84 to 7, a majority which
did not indicate the strength of the
opposition to the speedy passage of
the bill, as the vote on the motion
to place the bnl on second reading
and refer it to a committee was 68
to 24.
Mr. Monroe of Hempstead moved
that the bill, which had passed the
Senate and which was made a special
order of business be placed on sec
ond reading and referred to a com
mittee for further deliberation. He
said he was opposed to ‘'railroading”
measures through. This sl#»'d was
taken by practically all tfc.se who
spoke against the passage of the bill.
On the other hand, those supporting
the bill and contending for speedy
passage held that it was useless to
refer it to a committee because it
was short and simple and counld be
understood as well by the house as
that time as it could after a com
mittee had considered it.
Among other bills passed was one
prohibiting toy pistols in Arkansas
and another prohibiting telephone
companies from charging more than
$3 for a business telephone or $2 for
a residence phone. Several local bills
were passed.
A bill prohibiting persons in public
service from employing relatives in
that service failed to carry. Another
attempt to employ another clerk met
failure, also.
Committee Reports Favorably.
The discussion of the agricultural
school bill was considered significant
in some respects. The bill was
brought up in a committee report, the
Agricultural Committee reporting fa
vorably on the bill as amended. Dur
ing the discussion the Farmers’ Union
was brought into the matter and those
favoring the passage of the as amend
ed and opposing further amendments
and postponement of final action on
the measures declared that they took
such a stand because, they said, the
bill met with the approval of the
union. .

Legislative Gossip
Mr. Ard of Jackson was granted In
definite leave of absence. He left for
his home at Newport immediately.
S. K. Lenoir, a railroad expert ac
countant of Jonesboro, was in the city
for a few days. Mr. Lenoir’s friends
are trying to get him a position with
the state in the present railroad rate
litigation.
W. T. Gann of Herd, representative
from Benton county, has drawn the
largest amount of mileage thus far.
He drew mileage for 520 miles, or $52,
as each legislator gets 10 cents per
mile of travel.
Allen Hamiter of Lewisville, speak
er of the House two years ago, was a
visitors on ihe floor of the House a
few days ago. He was given an ova
tion when the courtesy of the floor
was extended to him.
Senator Yopp, who is a famous
hunter, has his fine pack of hounds
in Litte Rock and will make use of
the vacations of the Senate to do a
little hunting on the side. Senator
vopp has one of the most famous
packs of hounds in the South.
Representative DuLaney states that
the citizens of his county will peti
tion the legislature for two levee dis
tricts in that county. One will be lo
cated east and the other west of the
Kansas City Southern railroad, ana
will be created for the purpose of pro
tecting the county from the annual
ravages of Red river.
Regardless of the fact the bill to ap
propriate $50,000 to fight the railroad
rate cases through the federal courts
is no longer a bill but a law, petitions
are still coming in to the Senate urg
ing the passage of the bill. President
Martin is seeing that the petitions are
filed with the secretary of the Senate,
as to read them would be spending
time in a useless manner.
A ton of plaster, more or less, fell
from the ceiling in the Senate cham
ber the other day, and struck in the
general direction of a senator. Being
a parliamentarian, he rose to a point

bill, which has passed both the House
and Senate, are yet considerably ex
ercised over the safety of the meas
ure. The bill is now in the hands of
Governor Donaghey for signature to
make it a law, and the labor advo

get the governor's veto to the meas

at work to complete the process by
which the bill will become a statute.
How many months in the year
should a boy be sent to school? In his
discussion of the increase in the sal
ary of judges, Senator Carlock of Mad
ison stated that a boy should go to
school not to exceed five months in
the year from the time he is five until
he is 18 years of age. In his opinion,
a boy is not worthy educating if it
takes more time than the amount he
indicated. The senator. however,
specified the boy should be under a
capable teacher.
Inasmuch as many of the senators
insist on breaking the rule on smok
ing during the sessions of the Senate,
a resolution was introduced by Sena
tor Rowland of Roone to have the rule
repealed. Many senators were "ready
for the question,” but as the adoption
of the resolution affects a Senate ru e,
it had, under the rules, to go over
for a day. The senators who smoke
are used to lighting cigars when they
feel like smoking and the rule is often
unconsciously broken.
“I do not take it as a personal com
pliment that my bill for the suppres
sion of night riders and other kindred
organizations received every vote in
the House on its passage, but I do
think the state is to be congratulated
on the fact that no member of the
House voted against it,” stated Mr.
Little of Mississippi, author of the
night rider bill passed by the House,
‘lit is a drastic measure, but it is in
tended to cure an evil that is a great
menace to the future peace and pros
perity of the state.”
Senator Robertson of Lee “keeps his
eye on the ball” and always talks vig
orously when he engages in a debate.
During the debate on the bill to in
crease the salaries of circuit judges,
the senator declared the judges earn
their money and favored the bill. In
refutation of argument that the posi
tions of judges have never gone beg
ging at the present salaries. Senator
Robertson said he could “get lawyers
in Arkansas who would be willing to
come to Little Rock and serve on the
supreme bench at $1.50 per day.”’
One of the most unique votes cast
in the legislature in years was read
the other day in the House, in answer
to the name of Mr. Brown of Inde
pendence when the roll wras called
for the vote on Mr. Monroe’s motion
to put the bimonthly pay day bill back
on second reading. It was moved
that the bill be put on second read
ing and referred to a committee for
consideration. Mr. Brown objected
and his vote read as follows:
“Why send it off to get a fetter?
For they can bring out nothing better.
Let us get up and make a law
That will honor Arkansaw.
Our vote, our will, will soon be show
ing
When this hot air stops its blowing."
Just what will “break” in the Sen
ate this week is problematical. Sen
ator Glover will probably ask that
additional copies of his agricultural
school bill be printed. His bill pro
ceivevides for one agricultural school
and he maintains it is the one that
should receive favorable consideration.
The Henderson bill in the Senate pro
vides for four schools and an appro
priation of $50,000 for each school.
The bill annulling the contract be

contractors may be called up. It is

“ Do you know of any woman who ever received any
benefit from taking Lydia H. Pinkham’s Vegetabl Com
pound ? ”
If any woman who is suffering with any ailment peculiar
to her sex will ask her neighbors this question, she will be
surprised at the result. There is hardly a community in
this country where women cannot be found who have been
restored to health by this famous old remedy, made
exclusively from a simple f :rmula of roots and herbs.
During the past 30 years we have published thousands
of letters from these grateful women who have been cured
by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and never
in all that time have we published a testimonial without
the writer’s special permission. Never have we knowingly
published a testimonial that was not truthful and genuine.
Here is one just received a few days ago. If anyone doubts
that this is a true and honest statement of a woman’s experi
ence with Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound write
and ask her.
Houston, Texas.—“Wlien I first began taking Lydia E. Pink
ham’s Vegetable Compound I was a total wreck. I had been
sick for three years with female troubles, chronic dyspepsia,
and a liver trouble. I had tried several doctor’s medicines, but
nothing' did me any good.
“For three years I lived on medicines and thought I would
never get well, when I read an advertisment of Lydia E. Pink
liam’s Vegetable Compound, and was advised to try it.
“My husband got me one bottle of the Compound, and it did
me so much good I continued its use. I am now a well woman
and enjoy the best of health.
“I advise all women suffering from such troubles to give
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound a trial. They won’t
regret it, for it will surely cure you.” — Mrs. Bessie L. Hicks,
819 Cleveland St,, Houston.
Any woman who is sick and suffering is foolish surelv
not to give such a medicine as this a trial. Why should ft
not do her as much good as it did Mrs. Hicks.
