BIG INCREASE IN TAX VALUATION
Tn 5 Years Assessed Valuation of Property in State Has In-
 creased $l,000,0 0OG

According to figures compiled for the biennial report Of State Auditor A l.. Moore, the assess. ed valuation of property in Arkan- sas has increased almost J0 per cent in the last five years. Since 1900, when the valuation was little more than S2,000, ,000, the assessed valuation has increased almost Sl00, ,000, 000 T6is wonderful in- crease In taxable vaIaa- IS due probably to several causes, chief among which, however, isthe rap Id stride toward development that has been made in the last few years. About half of this increase has been in the last two years, since the last biennial reprot of the state auditor was issued. The figures to be used in the report show the assessed valuation for 1905 was $29O, ,42S, ,009. The valu- ation for other years is given as follows: 1904, S261, ,377 lS4; 1903, 249, TT, I0S; 1902, 22+, 401,1 ,113; 1901, 225, ,267 ,681: 1900, POI, ,90S,- 7S3
 This shows net gain in the val uation in the 1903 assessment of S48, ,000, 1000 over the assessment of 1900. The assessment Tor 1906 has not yet been completed, but if the same ratio of increase k shown in this report the assessed valua- tion of the state at the present time is far beyond S300 600, 900.
 To capitalists and others who have been considering the proba, bilities of Arkansas thi. biennial report will mean much. It will show them the rapid strides tow. ard development in the last few years, and shew that Arkansas property as an investment pays over ten per cent, even though 1t remain idle. This will be one of the big advertisements for Arkan- sas. The fact that the valuation has increased to such an extent in five years, without any perceptible change in the assessment of many large corporations, shows that farm lands and small industries of the state have increased in value. The increase is due to q great ex- tent, also, to the development of the mining sections of the state and the lands now used for fruit and agricultural pursuits which were formerly considered practi cally worthless.

 Children, beware of bad com

 because a great many people are doing the same thing. We must be careful and know that the thing that we want to do is right, and is good thing to do, rather than that there are many or few peo- pie who are doing it. Boys and girls of sociable temperament of ten get mad at their parents, who are careful of the company they keep, and think that the old peo- pie are too particular about it.
 Louis Albert Banks lived in the country in his boy hood days. A
 new family had moved into the neighborhood and there were two boys about the age of Louis, and they had a number of dogs and Louis liked to go squirrel-hunt- ing with them One day he want ed to visit the boys, but his father, who thought he was seeing more of them than was good for him, refused to let him go. At this Louis burst out with a silly angry speech. I never will amount to anything for you and mother nev- CT let me go into society at all. \ little later his father saw the boys coming across the pasture and called out to Louis: You needn't worry any more son; yon- der comes the society and all it's dogs.
 The boy who is always run ming with the crowd, and for no better reason than because the other fellows do 1t, will be sure to come to grief, for rest assured, that in many things modern soci- aty has its dogs and feas to pol iute and nag Sou.

He does his eat ing by wholesale.

STATEMENT FROM REV. NEWMAN
lie Tells What Was Said to the Children and says it Had No
 Application to Baptists
Dear Editor:

Lear Edll0f;
 The Journal of June 18th pub lished a communication from Brother J. F. Cossey which con- tains some misleading statements which I wish to correct. Were it not for those statements l would pay no attention to his article. He would have you to believe the school is a Union Sunday School. 7 But that is not fact. The super. intendent is'eIected by the Meth. odist quarterly conference; they use the literature (quarterlies, les son leaves, song books, etc pub Iished by our publishing house at Nashville, Tenn. and hold forth in Methodist church house, therefore it is a Methodist Sunday School. We welcome, as is our custom, all who will take a part with us.
 The brother insinuates that we receive babes in the church as members. That is not the case. They are not recorded or counted as members. Our church regis ters have different departments as follows: 1. Register of Pastors. 2. Register of marriages. 3. Register of infant baptisms (in which the child's name and the names of it's parents are recorded9 ] 4. Register of members, (no in- fants name is recorded here.)
 Permit me to say that Children s Day, itself, is child of the Meth. odist church. The Methodist Dis cipline says that The third Sun- day in May, or as near thereto as practicable, shall be observed as Ghildren's Day throughout our church with appropriate services. 1 quote from Discipline 1902, the latest edition, page 103, para graph 24S.
 Now let us be candid about this matter. Was the recitation which Brother Cossey published and com mented on in the issue of The Journal of June 15 appropriate for Children's Day2 Let us bring 1t home Brother Cossey. Suppose some Methodist parent should 1 have taught his child radical speech on infant baptism and the child have come into the Baptist l church and offered to deliver it Oh i some public occasion. What | would you think of that! Would | 1t have been delivered9 Now, the | little child who delivered the rec 1tation to which the pastor object ed Is a sweet little girl. She per- formed her part we'll and she l should not be criticised, for she did only what her parents persuad- ed and hired her to do. As to baptism, we do not consider it es sential to salvation, let it be per formed as 1t may. then why take up time to discuss the mode?
 MT. Editor, with your permis sion 1 will publish the speech de i livered to the children on Chil- 1 dren s Day. l knew 1 would be i on the program for a short talk, so on Saturday l prepared the fol- lowing:
 Now children, l wish to talk to you for little while on asso. citation. Most of you are farmers children, and if you are not farm CTS children you know what a cun- ming thief the crow is. We'll, here IS crow story: A band of crows one spring began to pull up a farmers young corn, and he de- termined to put stop to 1t. So
The Newark journal., 1906-06-29

called the Baptist church society and the members of that church dogs and heas. l made no such an application, as you can see from the above, nor did l think of doing such a thing.

BIG INCREASE IN DEATHS.
More Road Passengers and Employees
Are Killed in 1905 Than in
Previous Year.

Springfield, Ill.-During 1905 there
was a great increase in casualties to
passengers carried by the railroads
of Illinois, according to the annual re-
port of the state board of railroad
and warehouse commissioners.
During 1905 &C passengers were
killed on Illinois railroads, an in
crease of IL over 1904, while 297 en-
ployes were killed. Seven hundred
and seven passengers were injured, as
compared with 245 in 1904, and 3,27O
employees were injured. The total
mileage of steam railroads in the
state is 1865 miles, not including
415 miles of industrial tracks In
crease in main lines during 1905 is
107 miles.
A rule adopted by the commission
some time ago to prevent interurban
tracks from crossing steam roads at
grade is given in the report, and the
board says that many applications for
grade crossings have been refused.
The board advocates a block system
on all railroads. The number of per-
sons employed on Illinois railroads in
1905 was 115.447, an increase of 9,617
over 1904.
The commission appeals for closing
frogs for the protection Of trainmen.
The total mileage of electric roads,
both surface and elevated, is 762
miles, an increase during the year of
176 miles, and these roads carried
162,549,535 passengers.

CHURCHES DISPLAY ADS.
A Remarkable Evangelistic Effort
Being Made in Clinton, Ia--"Cin-

Clinton, Ia.-Clinton is the scene of
a religious awakening under direction
of prominent pastors. Cottage prayer
meetings are being held and the
elimination of the movement will
come at the close Of the Lenten sea-
son, when great revivals, led by noted
revivalists, will be held in several of
the churches.
Printers ink is being used unspar.
ingly by the leaders in the movement
and the pastors all report that the
newspaper advertising has done much
to bring the people out to the cot
tage meetings and to the Sunday
church services Display advertising
is used extensively. Hardly a day
passes that large advertisement
does not appear.
Clinton for Christ" is the slogan
of the association and circular let
ter has been issued calling upon the
people to appear as witnesses in the
trial of Christ and saying that a
dozen signs point to religious awak-
ening in the city.
A. P. Barker, judge Of the district
court; Rev. R. S. Rathbun and DR.. W.
Burns Ryder, a prominent physician,
are members of the evangelistic COM
mission, which Is in direct charge.
The movement began early in January
and is not expected to reach it's eli.
max until late in April or early in
MAY.

HELD UP AT THE ALTAR.
Groom Has to Pay Claims of Father
in-Law and Board Bill of
the Bride.

Trenton, N. J. - An Italian wedding
here was interrupted in remarkable
manner when the brides father insisted
on holding up the ceremony until the
bridegroom had paid $50 he had prom
ised the parent of his prospective wife.
The parties were Miss Mary Cerone,
daughter of Angelo Cerone, and Pas
quale Miller. The wedding procession
had marched in and Squire Manfred Naar
commenced the ceremony.
Everything progressed smoothly un-
til the officiating squire asked the blush
ing bride If she would have Pasquale for
better or worse and she timidly said
eyes, Then Papa Cerone interposed
and demanded that the ceremony be
stopped until the smiling Pasquale had
paid him $50 promised for the fathers
consent. The bridegroom handed over
the $50 and the ceremony proceeded.
Then Mrs. Berta Sanderson demanded
$52 the bride owed for back board With
ill-concealed grace Pasquale went down
in his pocket and paid the second claim.
Then the ceremony was allowed to
proceed.
