MUST PAY FOR WATER.

The jury, at Jefferson, Texas, in
the case wherein the Water Co., of
Texarkana, Arkansas, sued the city
of Texarkana, Texas, for %,9OO.OO
and interest for water furnished for
the past three or four years, rem
dered a verdict yesterday, in favor
Of the Water Company, recovering
full amount and interest which
amount is somewhere near ESQ, 900.
The case will be appealed to the
court at New Orleans and a final
decision will be had.
We have not kept up with the
merits or demeIitS of the case and
will not hazard an opinion on the
verdict. There is one thing that is
certain, however and that is the
city used the water and we have not
heard of water companies in this
country putting up free works, and
paying out money to keep up SER
vice for the fun that might be de-
rived in the matter of a law

politeness, charity, fairness, good

There is no questioning the fact
that Arkansas needs a new consti-
tuition, AS a contemporary says,
our state constitution is a serious
disadvantage to the progress and
development of this State, Arkan-
sas is all right so far as her natural
resources are concerned; her soil,
climate, pure water and health re-
sorts are unsurpassed, but her citi-
zens are handicapped in the way Of
internal improvements.

were in operation. We are also tar
