RENT PAYS FOR LAND.
Fertile Sections of the Southwest,
Where Land Sells for $15 and
Rents for SIS Per Acre.

One of the remarkable things about
eastern Arkansas and northern Louis
lana is the fact that cleared land rents
for IS per acre cash, and can be bought
for $3.50 to SIS per acre. 1t costs
from Sc to $40 an acre to clear It..
other improvements necessary are
slight and inexpensive.
The soil is rich alluvial, or made. 1t
produces a bale of cotton per acre,
worth $45 to $50. This accounts for
its high rental value. Other crops,
such as corn, small grains, grasses,
vegetables and fruits thrive as well,
Alfalfa yields to cuttings, ton
to a cutting, and brings $40 to SIG per
ton.
In other sections of these states,
and in Texas as well, the rolling or
hillland is especially adapted to stock
raising and fruit farming. Land is
very cheap, $5 to so per acre; i'm
proved farms $40 SIS to $25 per acre,
The new White river country offers
many opportunities for settlers. High
rolling, fine water 1T is naturally
adapted to stock and fruit raising

DEMAND DEATH OF FiENDS.
Ask Legislature to Make Assaults on
Children Punishable With Death.

Chicago, Juyl 13.-Moved by the pit
iful story of little girl who had been
assaulted by a hoodlum, Alderman
Herphy last night introduced a resolu-
tion recommending that the state leg
islature enact law fixing death as
punishment for assaults on women
and children. The resolution was un-
animously passed.
Prominent club women indorsed the
stand taken by the alderman and de-
clared that they would support such
a law.
Prominent criminal lawyers declare
that such a law would be constitution
al and like measures may be found on
the statute books of many of the
southern states.
Every newspaper | have read for
some time has told of the attacks OF
some fiend on helpless women or
children" said Alderman Herphy. "A
short time ago | was a member of the
grand jury when one of these cases
came up. A man, or rather a brute
had attempted to assault little girl
not more than 10 years old. The little
one was brought into the jury room
to give her testimony and | shall new

sobs as she saw the man who had at
tackled her sitting before her.

HILL IO TAKE MILWAUKEE
RUMOR TO THAT EFFECT CUR
RENT IN NEW YORK.
MILWAUKEE COAST LINE ABLUFF

Strong Suggestion That There Is More
Than Words in Northern Pacific
Milwaukee Deal is Found In Advices
Served Out In Good Quarters.
New York, July 1.-THE old rumor
that the Northern Pacific may take
over the control of the Milwaukee has
again come in for a good deal OF dis
cussion. There is in this rumor a
pronounced degree Of plausibility. 1t
is inconceivable that the owners OF
the Northwestern railroads cherish the
idea of an indefinite competitive war
fare to secure traffic, and the ques-
tion arises as to the sincerity OF the
Milwaukee's plan to build through to
the coast. If the plan Is genuine, why
has it not made greater progress in
the many years it has been talked
about?
Mr.. Hill, on behalf of the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific, once
bid $20O,000,000 Of 4 per cent bonds
for the Milwaukee stock, and his offer
was turned down, whereupon he
bought the Burlington.
Coast Line Bluff
The Milwaukee is much better to-
day than 1t was when Mr.. Hill pre-
ferred it over the Burlington as feed
er and Chicago link for his Northern
Securities combine. Mr.. Hills friends
declare that today he would not con-
slider an offer of $250,000,000 for the
Burlington. 1t is believed that he
could get the Milwaukee control at
1925 for per cent bonds guaranteed
by the Northern Pacific, and some peo-
pie say that the building activity on
the Milwaukee is for the purpose OF
forcing Mr.. Hill to make such an Of
fer.
Admirers of the Milwaukee declare
that, by applying his Burlington meth
ods to the management of the Milwau-
kee Mr.. Hill could make the latter
earn upwards of 20 per cent on its
stock. Thus at 1925 of 4 per cent
bonds for 500 of Milwaukee stock.
these latter would be a safe purchase.
II Milwaukee should extend through
to the Pacific coast as an independent
line, it would be illegal under the rul'
ing of the Northern Securities case to
turn the property over to the control
of the Great Northern or Northern Pa
cific.
HilI's Friends Bulls.
The Northern Securities decision die
not contemplate the continuation Of
the joint control of the Burlington by
the Northern Pacific and the Great
Northern, and soon one of the roads
must relinquish its interests in the
Burlington. 1t is quite generally &C
cepted that the Great Northern will as
sumo the full control.
A strong suggestion that there Il

WILL MEET WITH COUNCIL
ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT
NELSON OF WESTERN UNION.
IN REGARD TO STREET POLES

The Western Union Telegraph Com
pany Has Been Ordered to Move
Poles in Order That the New Ce.
ment Gutter May be Constructed.
Assistant Superintendent Nelson OF
the Western Union Telegraph com.
pany will be in Norfolk next Thursday
to confer with the Norfolk city coun.
ell in regard to the matter of tele-
Fourth street and the south side OF
Main street, which have been ordered
removed by the city of Norfolk in or.
der that the new gutter may be con.
structed. Mr.. Nelson telegraphed to
this effect last night and the work OF
chopping down the polls, which had
been promised by the city officials, has
been held up until after the confer
ence with Mr.. Nelson.
The poles are in the line of the new
cement gutter which will be built here
at once. AS the Western Union com
pany has no franchise in Norfolk the
city ordered the poles removed. When
they were not removed a telegram was
sent to superintendent Horton in
structing him that unless the poles
were moved wiSin twenty-four hours
the city would cut them.
Local Manager Metcalfe says that
he does know what plan or compro.
mise will be presented to the city
council by Assistant Superintendent
Nelson.

more than words In the stories of n
Northern Pacific Milwaukee deal is
found In the advlccs served out in
good quarters that the Milwaukee if
bound to sell at 1926 In comparn
lively short time.
The value of any rights to subscribe
for now securities which might be liz.
sued to finance n coast extension for
the Milwaukee hardly could make up
the difference between tho present
market value Of the stock and tho
price predicted. Finally, some OF the
staunchost bulls on Milwaukee are to
be found among some of Mr.. Hills
closest friends.
