SOME MISCREANT PLAYS HAVOC
WITH McFADDEN FERRY
PROPERTY.
Author of the Mischief Unknown, But
Said That There's Trouble
Among Ferry Operators.

Some miscreant wrought destruc-
ton to the boats at the McFaddeu
ferry, seven miles above this city, last
Friday night. On Saturday morning
both the ferry boats, and the gasoline
boat, the only two boats in commits
sion at the ferry, were found missing.
A careful search of the river led to
the discovery of the ferry boat. a short
distance down the river, sunk to the
bottom of the stream, with holes bor-
ed in the bottom, showing that the
deed was the premeditated act Of
some one bent upon mischief. The
gasoline boat has not been discover
ed, but it is presumed that it, too, has
been sunk in the river in the same
manner as the ferry boat.
The source of the McFadden trouble
is unknown, but for some time past
there has been trouble in the camp of
the company operating the ferry. The
trouble is said to be of long standing,
and is confined to the members of the
company operating the ferry.

Thirteen employees of the stranded
McCaddon circus which suffered pri-
vations in Europe which attracted
worldwide attention, arrived home
today. They expressed grateful appre-
citation of the manner in which their
fellow Americans abroad had heard
their appeal and subscribed funds for
their relief. When they were first
Cvertaken by misfortune, the leader
said, each had small amount of
money, but when this was exhausted
some of the women were so destitute
that they had neither shoes or under
clothing.

AS John R. BlOOmtthe new electrical
inspector of PinaBluff, whose office
was created by atecent ordinance of
the city council, tas interviewed by
8ssa reporter for the Graphic Saturday
Nafternoon, and hdt the following to
sssay relative to the conditions of his
new position:
Electricity-wha is it? Some call
it Juice some stuH the majority con-
fess as to their igd0rance of its phys
ical construction, While others say it
is the name give1 to an inevitable
agent known to us Imly by the effects
it produces and byFarious manifesta-
tions called electrical. These things
being true, need not lie an incentive
to any one to allowElimself to be con-
vinced Of the fact that it is not dan
gerous and very speedy. 1t needs no
introduction nor invitation but a half
opportunity created and it takes the
path of least resistance.
'This conceded, need we not make
good preparations to provide for the
proper paths of an electrical current
and keep this agent confined to safe
circuit, or properly Installed wire?
"The INSPECTORS office. recently
created by the city council, has impos-
ed on it duties that are innumefable,
and are fer the protection of life and
property in Pine Bluff Let us look
for moment at section 40 of the
ordinance, which says:
Immediately after the erection OF
any wiring or other outdoor construc-
ton for electric light or power, or be-
fore the concealment of or use of any
inside wiring, the company or person
erecting the same shall notify the city
electrician that said work is ready for
inspection; and no use shall be made
OF such wiring or its appurtenances
for purposes aforesaid until approved
by the city electrician, and a permit
therefor is issued by him; and no
changes in such system shall be made
without permit from said electrician.
and for such permit said city electric
ian shall charge and collect the sum of
one dollar
eve see from this what is required
of light companies and electrical con-
tractors doing in and outside work. 1t
is we'll known that heretofore the
city has not had an inspector and the
work that has been done, with very
few exceptions, has not been accord
ing to the rules of the national code
issued by the Underwriters National
Electric association. This association
is composed of societies and Institutes
comprising names of the best electric
al engineers in the world. It Is true
that in some requirements they are.

A Valuable Book on the Trust Question.

The most notable addition of late to
the literature on the trust question is
a volume by w. V. Marshall, of Ber-
line, Pa, editor of the Berlin Record,
who has deserted the beaten paths in
his treatment of much-treated ques-
tion. Mr.. Marshall AYERS that the
distribution of earnings and profits
effected through the throttling of
competition is unnatural distribution;
that it is the over-profiting Of the
trusts which leads to over-production;
that this overproduction is an abb
normal surfeit the presence of which
palsies industry and breeds unrest
and crime, and that it will not dissi-
pate itself except at the expense of the
peoples fore-owned possessions, or
that process which consists of trans
ferring the wealth OF the common
people into the hands of the monopo-
lists.
His culinary of equalizations-tax
equalization, profit equalization, equal.
ization Of supply and demand, equal
ization Of reward with earnings, and
equalization of the pleasures Of self
qualification the concurrence of devel.
opments that would take place under
the tax corrective that he proposes, is
something new in political science -
discoveries in fact, marking distinct
advance in economic thought.
While drawing up facts and conclu.
sions from the deepest abyss of the
industrial question, it is done in such
simplicity of style and clearness Of
illustration as to make his subject
easily understood by the commonest
intelligence. "Competition" is the
name of the little volume. The price
OF the book is rs cents, postpaid. and
il can be had of the Berlin Publishing
Co., Berlin, Pa.
