cutting Attorney Rhoton ques tioned the men for the state. The prosecutor asked very few ques- tions, indicating that almost any one was satisfactory to him, but the defense was very careful to find out all about the individual before he was accepted.
 As soon as the jury was em- paneled they were sworn in, and the witnesses were put un- der the rule, except circuit judg- es, of other districts, and former legislators. The opening state ments consumed the remainder of the afternoon.
 An i'm posing array of counse is defending Dulaney. Murphy, Coleman and Lewis, conceded to be among the best criminal law yers in Arkansas. aided by Form CT Congressman Will Terry Burt Brooks and others, will see that the defendant gets his rights in the trial.

The DuIaney Trial

Little Rock, Nov. 9.-Special- The Dulaney trial progressed Friday to the actual taking of testimony.

PLENTY OF MONEY HERE
Merchants Have Made Arrangements to
 Buy All Cotton Offered

The merchant cotton buyers of Prescott have finally made the necessary arrangements, and se- cured sufficient money to pay cash for all cotton offered for sale in Prescott.
 The recent stringency forced them for a short time to go out of themarketona a cash basis, because the banks in the large cities were unable to furnish the mon ey to buy the staple.
 But yesterday the situation was relieved to the extent that there is now sufficient funds to handle the crop.
 Cotton is quoted on the streets today at from 10 Is to He.

Will Hold for l6c.

Guthrie, Okla, Nov. S.-Fol- lowing secret meetings through out Oklahoma to discuss the cot ton market situation, the cotton growers have decided to hold the 1907 crop urtil cotton prices have advanced to a certain figure said to be Is cents. The cotton growers have compact organi- zation and each member is sworn to secrecy.
 The action of the cotton grow CTS to hold their crop is consid- cred in a favorable light by tinan- cial concerns as indicating that the furry" has not frightened agriculturists, and that they are not in need of ready money. The fact that the banks will not be called on to supply cotton pur- chase funds will have much to do in restoring normal condi- tions. It is estimated that more than 10000 bales of cotton will be held out of the market in Logan county alone.

Night Officer George Hall was fined

was a woman, were fined $54 each.
After short confinement all came up

declare that they will suffer more Sc

on these arrests in particular" says
Mayor l.. Newman. ''All along this

However, We mean to weed out this

utter MAKES LAW
OF TAXATION PLAIN

The opinion of #. N. Utter, attor-
ney, given the Herald by request last
week in this newspapers efforts TO
find out the exact conditions sur
rounding the collection Of poll, poor
and other taxes from employees, is, in
full, as follows:
"Questions of taxation are always
questions of public policy and the
courts in deciding such questions will
always consider the effect of their
decisions upon the public welfare.
This involves the tax itself and
the means provided for its collect
ion.
Real property is taxed where it is
situated. Personal property is usually
taxed where it is kept and poll taxes
are levied upon the person at the
place of which he is an 'inhabitant.'
"Our state uses the word 'inhabi-
tant' in describing the person liable
for poll taxes. The question as to
who is an inhabitant of the city OF
Havre or the state Of Montana IS a
question of facts. The word is doubt
less often used in a sense eynono-
nous with citizen and resident
Cur code definition of the latter
word should help in determining
what is meant by the word ''inhabi-
tant. 1t says: For the purpose Of
registration Or voting that place must
be considered the residence Of PER-
son in which his habitation is fixed,
and to which, Whenever he is absent,
he has the intention Of returning, and
the place where a mans resides is
presumed to be his place Of residence;
and it is the place where one remains
when not called elsewhere for labor
or other special OF temporary pur-
pose, and to which he returns i'll sea-
sons of repose; and every person has
in law, a residence and >lc~e can on
ly be one residence"

free to say that my assignment to this
work may be taken as an indication
of the intentions of the war depart
ment. Not including the cost of the
waters rights or of rights of way,
estimate that all the water needful
for Fort Harrison either as regimen
tai or brigade post can be supplied at
g, cost not to exceed 100000. This in
cludes the construction of a reservoir
with a capacity OF 100000 gallons,
enough for three months supply if no
water were flowing into it. A mil

Fort Harrison from this single source,

ing nothing about the possible hind

Following publication Of this signi-
ficant interview the Independent has
this to say:
1T is understood that the Helena
Commercial club will pipe the Fort
Harrison water along the Montana
Central's right of way and that own
ers of water rights in Colorado gulch
will cooperate generously in the
plan to deliver an adequate water sup
ply at the post. Amy effort to hold
up" the government Or to demand ex-
orbitant prices would not only mill
tate, but probably defeat, the project
to make Fort Harrison first a regi-
mental and then a brigade post.
"There is no longer any doubt that
Montana is to have but one perma-
nent post garrison, and that If Fort
Harrison is not chosen all the
military reservations in the state will
be abandoned The findings of Cap
tain Edmonstone will, no doubt, de-
termine the selection of the local
