MAY REPEAL ANTITRUST LAW.
Tire Insurance Troubles Will Make Re- peal of Anti Trust Law An Issue
 in Next Assembly.

Little Rock, Jan. 18-It is al most certain that one of the big issues before the session of the legislature next year and for which the campaign for senators and representatives is now on, will be a measure looking to the repeal of that part of the anti trust law affecting fire insurance companies.
 Annoyances arise due to the restrictive provisions of the law, such as inability to secure ample lines of insurance and the diff culties of securing transfers, and the business element by the time another year has brought it's accumulated troubles, may be in a mood to arise and demand the repeal of a law so many are now condemning as pernicious and without redeeming feature.
 The sentiment of the business community is voiced in the fol- lowing interview with Judge G.. L. Basham of the Little Rock bar:
 'I am as much opposed to trusts as any man. I believe that any set of men who deliber- ately enter into a combination to extort undue or dishonest profits are honest only because there is a law against stealing.
 But I have watched care fully this Arkansas. antitrust law in it's operations, and the only result I have seen is that we get inferior fire insurance at the same high rates or even higher than before. And then, in my own experience and the observation of the business of my clients, I find that the annoy ances are constantly growing. Business men with large lines of insurance are experiencing the greatest difficulties in placing it, and often much valuable time is lost when policies must be sent to New York to be transferred. If there were any compensating gain it would be different, but there is none, so far as 1 can see."

Tunnel Reported Caving.

It is stated that the tunnel nearest Omaha on the White River Road is caving, and that a large number of men have been
 put to work to remedy the trou- ble. More trouble was exper- fenced in putting this tunnel through than on any other on the road, and it is possible that it may yet prevent the putting on of the through service on the road on January 21, as is at pres ent intended. -Batesyille Guard.

the club, instead OF bringing rs-

fortunately been the case in some
PLACES, will he an honor to the
com mmunity. The rooms, which
have proven to be a very pleasant
rendezvous for the members, are
attractive. i:lyitin g, well.heated,
well-Ighted, and very handsom e.
ly furnished.
sundry games are participated
in by those who desire to while
away their leisure moments in
that way. About $50 worth Of the
leading magazines and dailies-
the cream of current literature
have been subscribed for, which
will cause the reading room to be
frequented by those who are in
tellectually inclined.
There need be no apprehension
for the future of the club, from a
moral standpoint, it the conatitu-
tion and bylaws are rigidly en-
forced. Betting and gambling in
every form are forbidden, also the
drinking Of intoxicants in the
club rooms. Furthermore, mems
her is not allowed in he rooms

Emulsion offers a reliable
