IMPORTANT THINGS
TO BE CONSIDERED AT MEETING
OF BOARD OF TRADE MON
DAY MORNING..
Ore Is Rebuilding Of Sawyer and
Austin Puiant Here, and Estab-
iishment of Steam Ferry
A FULL ATTENDANCE DESIRED.

There will be board Of trade meet.
ing Monday morning at 10 o'clock. at
which various matters of Importance
will he discussed, and Secretary At
wood requests full attendance of the
members
Among the matters to be considered
are two of very great concern to the
city. One of these is to take up the mat
ter of the rebuilding of the Sawyer and
Austin lumber plant in Pine Bluff.
Little Rock is making strong effort
to secure the plant for that city, and
Pine Bluff, will make determined
fight against giving it up. as it was one
OF the most important industries of
fire. and would continue To be if re-
built here
Another is the matter of steam
ferry. The cotton season is here, and
Sc far the effort to establish steam
ferry has not been a success. II will
be necessary to raise 81 900 if steam
ferry is go, and the committee in
charge of the matter has raised only
$1,000, which is $500 short of the sum
absolutely necessary.
There is no more time to be lost in
the consideration of the two matters
mentioned. and it is highly important
that there be a full attendance of the
board of trade members and an arrival
definitely at what is to be done.

THE NEW
BILL
Appertaining to the Sale of
Loose Tobacco
1t Provides That the Tax Be Re-
moved From the Unstemmed
Weed.
DRAFTED BY MR.. YERKES

Washington, March l6-Tbe com.
missioner OF internal revenue has
transmitted to the chairman of the
ways ant means committee the draft
OF bill amendatory of the internal
revenue laws pertaining to tobacco,
which he will recommend passed.
The bill is along the lines of the COM
missioner's argument before the com
mittee, and in brief provides for free
trade without government tax or re-
striction on unstemmed leaf tobacco.
Representative Trimble Of the Sew
enth Kentucky district, has obtained
from Representative Dalzell, Of the
ways and mesps committee the draft
of the bill A. IL will be reported. I'm
der it's terms the following section
appears rs an amendment TO the revis-
ed statntes;
Provided that unstemmed tobacco
in the natural leaf and not msnUfac-
tured or altered in any manner shall
not he subject to any internal revenue
tax or charge Of any kind whatsoever,
and it shall be lawful for any person
TO buy md sell such unstemmed to-
bscco in the leaf without payment of
tax of any kind"
Mr.. Trimble said that the bill,
while it does not give the measure re-
lief hoped for by the tobacco growers
Of the country, is at the same time a
long step forward and will undoubted-
ly lead to more important modifica-
tions in the future.
1.-THE BILL" said Mr.. Trimble. "is
somewhat in the nature of compro-
mise measure, but it does not mean
that efforts will be relaxed to obtain
further amendments. The bill re-
moves the tax o. unstemmed leaf to-
bacco and what we now want is the
removal Of the tax ON the twisted
form. This believe we will also
eventually get.
The bill will be favorably reported
from the ways and means committee
at its next meeting and will be passed
by the house at an early date. All
the Kentucky me mbers have worked
hard for the bill and are congratulate
ing themselves upon obtaining for the
tobacco growers this concession from
congress.

ATHLETICS In SCHOOL
Y. NJ. @. A. INSTRUCTOR TO
TEACH THE SCHOOL BOYS.

Prof. H. E. Steel, of the Y. NJ. u. A.. +,
has agreed to conduct a course of sth-
letics in the local public schools and
the boys are taking great interest in
the matter.
When the weather gets warmer
Prof Steel will begin his work. There
will be football, baseball, running,
jumping and every field sport taught,
and the bows will have plenty of out
door exercise.
The matter will be arranged def
nitely at the next principals meeting
which will be held this week. The
boys in the schools have been train
ing in athletics without the proper
instruction, but with the assistance of
Prof. Steel will do much more in this
line than ever before. In fact the
school authorities have given the mat
ter of athletics in the schools little
attention, but with more attention to
physical culture, as they give in the
colleges, interest in the actual school
work will increase and the officials
think better results will be obtained.
