Railroads,

Vast Improvement in railroad construc-
ton is Il feature of the Rocky Mountain
States says the New York Tribune.
Passes that were pronounced insurmount-
able a few years ago have been scaled,
seemingly impossible canyons have been
threaded. and mountains have been tun-
ncled to cut down heavy grades. until the
barrier of the Rockies has become no
barrier tat all.
Only generation ago engineers were
pronouncing Colorado hopeless from n
railroading standpoint. Yet today there
are several railroads making daily climbs
of the main range in Colorado and a
brand new road. build out of Denver to-
ward Salt Lake, has climbed the barrier
at point where ten years ago civil en-
gineers said no roadbed could be sue

This new railroad is the Denver, North

the Moffat road. for the reason that it

the main range at an altitude of II, 500

At another point the train literally

gnecrs said the canyon Of the Arkansas
could never be penetrated its entire
length. There was one spot in this awe
inspiring chasm where there was not
room for a road bed on either side Of
the stream. The walls Of the canyon
came down to the swift current Of the
Arkansas, without foothod for n man
on either side. But an engineer suggest
ed a hanging bridge, suspended between
the walls of the canyon. The bridge was
built with support imbcdded in the solid
rock, and across 1t the heavy transcon

but the slender ironwork between the
river and the top of the canyon. 300 feet

railroad wonders that will be wrought

gems possible that the feats Of the last

greatest work will be done in the limo

 to show what and where we are will not prove amiss in a magazine that is to present our claims to recognition as city of promise and wonderful oppor- tunities. Here the capitalist may find a new outlet for his energies, in new farms, new factories, to give employ ment to shifting millions who seek liv- ing from their labor.
 In population, Newport is the tenth city in the state; in point of business for her size, none lead her; in point of refine ment and hospitality, her reputation can we'll answer with pride.
 For the year ending March 3I, 1905, the receipts of the Newport postohice, not including money order commissions, were $IO,4o8.II, entitling Us to a free delivery of the mails. Steps have been taken to secure this privilege and as soon as some of the walks of the city have been improved an inspection will be asked for and the service doubtless in Stituted
 Newport ranks next to Little Rock as the best station on the main line of the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & South ern Railway Company outside of St. Louis, and fourth on the systenl-Little Rock, Fort Smith, Pine Bluff and New port, in the order named The Iron Mountain handled $I8o,ooo in-freight, $3oo,ooo out-freight which with $48,ooo ticket receipts, made total business for Newport of $528,ooo.
 The Rock Island branch hauled away from Newport 3,Ioo cars and brought in 235O cars of freight or in dollars and cents, including ticket sales of $500, a total business of $I25,ooo
 In wholesale business, Newport ex- ceeds the million mark several hundred thousand dollars. Our two exclusive wholesale grocer houses do an aggregate business of $I,Ioo,ooo, and with other large stores, which do jobbing busi- ness, this amount is increased The sales of the Newport Grocer Company are $6oo,ooo for the year, employing ten

thirteen lawyers, thirteen doctors, two dentists and six contractors. In the col ored section there are numerous small stores, barber shops, restaurants, etc, and there are also two colored doctors practicing among their race.
 Newport is city of the second class, divided into two wards. The officials are J. w. Grubbs, Mayor; J. R. May ham, Recorder; T. s. Stephens, Marshal s. Brasch, w. R Thompson, c. H. Will mans and A. D. Bailey, Councilmen.
 The Fire Department is composed of j. R. Mayhan, Chief; w. A Carouthers, Walter Baird, Ed Davenport, Ralph Richardson, Culver Knoles, Will Whit taker, Alfred Mortensen, Ed Shess.
 The members of the Board of Health are Dr. o. E. Jones, President; C. E. Crook, Secretary; Dr. c. K. Stephens. H. Bernstein and F. H. Van Dyke.

PUBLIC UTILITIES


 IN her public utilities, Newport ranks l as city of the first class, lacking
 none of those services which con- tribute so materially and essentially to the conveniences and luxuries of metro politan life. And while the service of two of these systems, the water and electric lights, have been perfectly satisfactory, their franchises expire within the next few years, and plans are already dis cussed for the public ownership of these two named utilities.
 The Water Works.-W White River, until within 30 miles of Newport, is a mountain stream, celebrated for the clear ness of it's sparkling waters, and passes our city with strong, sWift-runnlng current From such source IS our water supply pumped into reservoir I5o feet high and with capacity of 72,ooo gallons and distributed through the city by 34 miles of mains and lat erals. It has been said of White River water SO often that the expression has
Newport daily independent., 1905-06-30

become ar adage of this section, that he who once drinks of its purity, no mat ter how far he may roam, will return to again indulge the longing sense of taste. The water plant is owned by MT. A. K. Lanyon, of Pittsburg, Kan, and J. Eos ter Rhodes, of Chicago, and we'll man. aged by Colonel Lancelot Minor, of this city. The mains have been extended almost entirely over the city and the homes of renters as we'll as household CTS are supplied with this water
 The Fire COmpany.-The Fire De partment is composed of energetic young men of this city, who are paid a stipu- lated salary by the city. The chief of the organization is MT. J. R. Mayhan, and he has made very praiseWorthy record ir securing the latest improvements for the equipment and in bettering the service A salaried man in the person of J. A. Baird IS always at the hose house, prepared to answer fire calls at minutes notice, and the city owns a fine team of bays that insure prompt re- sponses. There are hydrants in every block and with the pressure of the res ervoir, together with direct pressure from the pumping engines arranged for times of fire, the city has seldom wit messed the destruction of serious fires.
 The Electric Light Company.-The electric light system of our city in point of equipment and good service, is hardly surpassed by that of any city of equal population. With capacity of 4,ooo incandescent lights, the needs of the city are fully met and the use of this means of lighting has become general through out the business and residence district. The plant and franchise are owned by the Pond & Decker Manufacturing Com pany, having been inaugurated in 1897. In the summer season, to provide power for electric fans, day as we'll as night service is afforded the public. The pres ent efficient superintendent of the system is J. w. McCarty
 Steam Laundry.-In this line, New port has recently been forced to send her work to foreign cities, which is in deed remarkable from the fact that we not only have finely equipped plant
Newport daily independent., 1905-06-30

with the latest improved machinery, made by Nelson Kreuter, of Chicago, with capacity of $I5o to $2oo worth of work per week; but, moreover, the work Of the city alone is sufficient to support first-class laundry, and Newport IS ad- mirab1y located for outside business ln this line. The local plant is owned by the Pond & Decker Manufacturing Com pany, of this city, and will be sold on easy terms to a reliable party.
 TelephOnes.-There are three tele- phone companies entering NeWport-the Southwestern Telephone & Telegraph Company, the Farmers Telephone Com pany and the Jackson County Telephone Company, though only the first named has local exchange The Southwest ern, or Bell line, connects Newport With the whole country; the Farmers line with points in Independence Cour and northern part of Jackson County, and the Jackson County Company extends southWard along the Rock Island branch to Augusta. The Bell Company have, during the past year, established cables for their service on the main streets, spending vast sums upon this and other improvements. The other two com panies are owned by home capital, and all have been successfully managed.
 Newport Ice & Cold Storage Com- pany. Incorporated under the laws of Arkansas in 1897, this company, with paid-up capital stock of $3I,5oo, has not only supplied the home market with that summer necessity, but invaded the terri tory of outside factories and secured large volume of business from nearby towns. The building occupied by this company is constructed of brick and oc- cupies lot 50 by I5o feet Their water supply is from an inexhaustible well, the capacity of the plant is 20 tons, and their machinery of the latest improve ments. The officers of the company are: Adolphus Busch, of St. Louis, president; Louis Lemp, of St. Louis, vice-presi- dent; B. w. Stainback, secretary-treas- urer and local manager. Too much credit can hardly be given MT. Stain back for his business management of the institution, now reaping the profits of his successful administration.
