We would like to know why the
Helena World casts the following
slur at Senator J. K, Jones:
Senator James K. Jones is said to
be rusticating at his home in
Washington, Ark. Senator Jones
has no home at Washington, Ark.
He occasionally visits here for two
or three weeks, but his home is at
Washington, D. c., and up East,
where his family now is, Senator
Jones, like his friend ex-senator
Brice, of Ohio, has his home atone
place and his political citizenship at
another. Senator Berry actually
has home in Arkansas and spends
all the time he is not engaged at
Washington, at BentonYille, There
is a long cry between James X.
Jones and James H. Berry"

SHREVEPORT RED HEADED

The Shreveport Times and Jour
/ nal have taken a shot az the re-
moyal OF the Pee Gee general Offices
from that city TO this city, aud
now comes the Caucasian which
says
The citizens Of Shreveport have
been impressed with certain as
sumed facts which may have TO be
Interpreted legally. The city voted
a large sum of money in aid of the
construction of the Kansas City,
Pittsburg & Gulf Railroad and in
the agreement it is provided that
Shreveport shall at all times be the
end of the divisions centering here
Shreveport. If Shreveport is to
be in fact the end OF the divisions
of the Kansas City, Pittsburg and
Gulf it follows that the division
headquarters, together with the
superintendents Office and other
offices of the division should natur-
ally be at Shreveport, but, perhaps,
the meaning Shreveport shall be
at an times the end of the divisions
may be In name only. If the
offices of the division can be moved,
in fact, of what good are the other
conditions stipulated in the terms
of agreement. The move, it is sug-
gested, will prevent the company
having any suits instituted against
it by the railroad commission of
Texas. If that be true how can
the Pee Gee escape the clutches OF
the Texas railroad commission when
Texarkana in Texas and in Arkan-
sas is divided by an INVISIBLE line.
We would like to say to the
Shreveport Caucasian that the
Texarkana Il Fort Smith Railroad
is a separate and distinct road
from the X, c. p. q G. road, and
the headquarters for this road by
rights belong to this city as the
charter calls for it here and not at
Shreveport or any other place, the
state law of Texas is very explicit
on this point and justly so, that a
railroad running into Texas from
any other states must have their
general offices and keep their rec
ords in the state where the railroad
commission can examine them at
will.
If Shreveport went blindly ahead
and purchased something from
foreigners, who had no title to that
which they sold, they can do moth
ing but bring criminal action
against the parties of sale, not
with the expectation of regaining
said property but to punish the
act.
Texarkana contributed to this
road as much as Shreveport did,
and when the officers removed the
headquarters from here on a deal
with Shreveport, our people went
to work on the road and the result
was we moved them back here
where they rightfully belong. We
don't blame the people from kicking
at Shreveport, however, at having
a golden brick game played on
them.

Mistaken Identity.

Mr.. VIM. a. Smith, of Hoyes, was in
the city a few days ago and related a
circumstance which befell some prop
erty he was shipping to a foreign
market. The property metionned
was a four months old Jersey calf
which Mr.. Smith had butchered and
sent to Friendsville for shipment.
When the animal arrived there the
constable of the district, accompanied
by the Justice, examined the carcass
and pronounced it venison. They ac-
cordingly notified the express COM
pany at Friendsville not to ship the
meat as it was unlawful to kill deer.
After considerable trouble Mr.. Smith
convinced the officers that the calf was
a calf and they allowed the shipment
to go on. Now Mr.. Smith wants to
know if he has to send the COW along
the next time he ships veal so that it
can be identified.
