RETRIAL OF MRS- KENNEDY RAILROAD HORROR OF THE FIRST MAGNITUDE SENATOR SMITH FAVORS THE SESSION hnlMinl rhlrana Wheat. utll 4 o'clopltl nhixon Mnw 1 ft Wheat 177, closed 10. Close. 7CV 7Ci V'A il Cloi'.e. T7fk 77-A op'Jld Senator C. J. Smith has prepared ills reply to the letter sent him by tho governor, asking whether or not the.)riditloii of i..is county demands a M'clal session of tho legislature, and will send It to Salem tomorrow, The senator reviews the situation1 in: detail. He states that the county Is Jn good condition financially, wit that the Judgo of the county wishes the session because -no lack of a tax will throw a burden of Interest on the county, iiio school districts are all Iu favor of the session, for most of them aro badly In need of tho funds raised by the special tax, and somo cannot conveniently continue their sessions without it. Tho cities, as a rule, are more independent, though they, with one or two excep tions,, are anxious for a session. Taking all of these things Into consideration, the senator thinks It is the wish of the people of the coun ty that the session bo called, and ho therefore recommends It. In speaking of the matter of legis lation, the senator takes the stand that he is not In favor of any other legislation than will cover the tax question, and thinks that tho session should be held down to a few days. Vet there are those in tho county who have things they would llko to have In ought before tho legislature, and so advise him. However, the senator would not bo in favor of tak ing auy outside matter up unless It were really of Importance and an emergency. With Iheso suggestions, he asks that the session be convened, Rearend Collision Results in Thirty Nine Negroes and One White Man Being Killed Twenty.Three Injur m, Nearly All Negroes, Now Orleans, La..
