TRIP TO LITTLE RIVER.

Saturday, the editor went on a
"tour of inspection, to Little River
the present terminus of the Texar-
kama & Fort Smith railroad, 45
miles north of this city. We wished
to see the modus operandi of put
ting in a long span steel bridge.
1t was a pretty day, and we en-
joyed the ride over the road. Mr..
W. G. Merritt, who is building the
Little River bridge, also went out
to see how the work was progress
ing. At Winthrop a considerable
stop was made, to switch the cars
into proper shape for returning,
and we took a little tour over the
future great" About a dozen
business houses there now, and new
residences going up in almost every
direction, We noticed quite num-
Der of Choctaw Indians there, trad
ing AS the town is only six or
eight miles from the Nation, these
Indians are regular traders there.
We arrived at Little River, or
rather at the switch half a mile
this side Of the stream, about three
o'clock, and hurried to the bridge,
where we found about forty men at
work constructing the same. The
structure is made of solid steel or
iron, well bolted together, and when
completed will consist of only one
long span Of 25O feet, directly over
the river, resting upon four cylin-
drical piers, (two on each side OF
the river) upon a rocky foundation,
Bridge is now about three fourths
done, and is rapidly being put to-
gether in sections, by means of
''Galse work." long, heavy piling
standing in the rocky bed of the
stream. An immense rotary crane
places the cumbersome and weigh
ty bridge parts into proper position,
when they are bolted. After the
entire structure is put together
and every bolt properly tightened
the "false work" will be taken out,
when the Iron horse" can proceed
onward, toward Kansas City, This
kind of bridge building is a Zine
art" and we do not regret our hav-
ing gone to witness active con-
struction thereon, Little River
bottoms at this point is narrow,
and requires only about 250 yards
of trestling on the south side, and
less than half as much on the north
side Of the bridge proper
In a short time this road will be
come one Of the main through lines,
and will be known far and near, as
one Of the best paying systems in
this country. Texarkana will reap
many benefits from it in various
ways,
Before dropping our pencil we
wish to remark that this railroad
K, G. p, &, g. is being put in
splendid condition, all along the
line, even on the new work, from
Wilton to Winthrop, Ever since
Mr. W. A, Williams, the present

Onr Infalllble supreme Court.

The New York Herald tells a capital
story on the Judges OF the Supreme
court. A case went up from New York
lately depending upon the proper
definition Of the word "sauce." A firm in
the city imported some Anchovy fish
paste, and the revenue officers insisted
on calling the article a sauce and
charging 35 per cent. duty on it. The
owner took the case to the United States
Circuit court, where he proved that the
paste was an article Of diet, and so
regarded commercially, and not sauce;
but the court, on the strength OF the
revenue law and Webstsr's dictionary
decided against him. He then appealed
to the Supreme court, and that court
after hearing arguments sustained the
court below and ordered Justice Gray
TO write the opinion. In the evening
when Justic Gray went home he men
toned the matter to his wife. That
good lady laughed at her lord and told
him he might as we'll decide that sardines
and smoked red lerrings were sauces.
The Judge was upset by her argument
and the next day told his brother
Judges and asked them to consult their
wives upon the matter. They did so,
and found the ladies Of one mind. So
they had to reverse their arHt opinion
The advocate., 1895-11-06

and decide that Anchovy paste was not
q sauce. And Justice Gray took up the
argument and proved, with as much
vehemence as he had been pre-
pared to prove the contrary before,
and his wife was right and the
revenue collectors and the courts wrong.
And this is the tribunal that rules the
United Statesl What a pity these
astute Judges did not consult their wives
when they were wrestling with the
income tax. IL they had, these educated
ladies' would no doubt have informed
them that their decision respecting the
manner of c1llecting an income tax in
the United States was precisely the same
as the scheme followed by the ancient
Persians in extorting tribute from their
conquered provinces, and therefore
totally incompatible with the laws and
customs OF free people. In which case
we have no doubt Justice Gray and his
fellows would have decided that inn
portant case in accordance with reason
and common sense, as they did the An
chovy paste question: Chippewa Falls
Sentinel.

KANSAS CITY STOCK YARD NOTES

MhNOhO I'll 01VOh A1OO NVLE EO
The hog market closed last Saturday
with great demand for porkers.
The October cattle receipts were
2l6, ,154, which is greater than in any
month since October, 1894. Hog re-
ceipts for this October were 232, ,34O;
sheep, los, ,9l5, and horses 1926.
Last November the price of fed cattle
opened at $4S5 and closed at $3.50,
with $5.85 the highest during the
month. What will it be this month";
Ed Belknsp, of Blue Mound, Kss.,
last Thursday sold twenty-five steers,
averaging LAOS pounds, at $4.3O.
E. W. Barker, of Burlington, Kas.,
sold six loads of prime heavy hogs at
$500. Their average weight was 1888
pounds and they were of Mr.. Bsrker's
own breeding.
Sheep sold better than either cattle
or hogs and the market strengthened
considerably during the week. The
quality of the offerings was fair to
good. Most of the receipts were West
erns and natives. The demand from
the local packers was strong.
Horses and mules sold lower; there
was a decline in price of from so to $5
per head. Too many common horses
were offered to make q good market
and the tendency was to lower prices
for horses while mules have held about
steady.
Mules have sold more readily than
horses owing to the fact that a large
number of mules are being bought on
this market for shipment to Cuba.
There is little prospect of prices being
any higher on cattle and hogs for the
present at least, while sheepmen claim
that from now on there will be better
market for good offerings than for
some time.
One drawback to the cattle market
has been the number of medium and
common cattle offered. While the de-
mand has been good and local packers
have been liberal buyers, when the
quality of the offerings is considered,
prices have been fairly good.

for producing their lines over 1893 which
gave them an output of twenty miles per

so great the past season that in order to
be able to supply their trade they have
been compelled this year to double the Ca
pacity of 1894, which now gives them an
output of forty miles per day. This in
