anticipation OF the grand ball announced
TO be given February o. at Crawiords-
Vile, by the CrawiQrdsvillo Rifles, mill
tary company, composed of the flower Of
that county's manhood. The ball came
off on schedule time, and the beauty and
chivalry of the neighborhood for forty
miles around focked TO do the occasion
honor. Memphis sent quite delegation
and the array OF beauty presented by the
ballroom was somethngof which the Rifles
nave cause TO be proud. Among the in
teresting features OF the evening was n
competitive individual drill for gold
medal, which, after Il warm contest, was
awarded 10 Walter Turner as the best
drilled man. The Rifles were out in full

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
Personal to Arkansas Legislators.


To the Editor Of The Appeal
l observe in today's APPEAL telegram
from your Little Rock correspondent stat
ing that in the House yesterday Mr. Mar
tin, OF Faulkner, moved to reconsider the
vote by which House bill No. Ill (the
railroad commission bilD failed to pass,
and that the motion was carried by the
close vote OF IS to 80.
1t would be interesting to the public to
know why thirty-eight out of seventy
seven members oppose this bill. Surely
they are living in Ignorance OF the actual
condition of things with regard to the ex.
orbitant rates charged for transportation
by every railroad in Arkansas. But should
this excuse them to their constituents Is
II quite right that their constituents should
be compelled to pay the present enormous
rates OF freight just because their repre-
sentatiyes arc unenlightened as to the
situation or are afraid of offending the
railroad managers? l should like to
ask some OF the gentlemen who OPP
pose the bill what they think OF a
rate OF 10 cents per 100 pounds on whisky
being the current rate of the Missouri Pa
citic Railway from Little Rock to Hot
Springs, distance OF sixty-eight miles.
am informed by Memphis railroad
agent that the rate ON whisky from Mem.
phis TO New York, distance, in round
numbers, OF | ,200m is but IS cents per
| 100. II the roads east of the Mississippi
River lind profitable to haul whisky 200
miles at a rate Of rs cents per 100 does
it not look as II the Missouri Pacific was
guilty of gross extortion in charging "a
cents for sixty-eight miles? The above is
not an isolated instance. Innumerablo
instances OF extortionate rates in Arkansas
can be adduced.
Having some interest in knowing how
rates OF freight on the roads in the State
Of Arkansas compare with those in Other
States, procured from official sources

way Company and Memphis q Charles
