AN ADDRESS TO THE BUSI-
 NESS MEN OF ARKANSAS

State of Arkansas believes that the railroads are not making operating eN- penses, it would be useless as we'll as an act of injustice to the roads 10 make claims to the contrary out' on the other hand. if the people of the State believe that by a systematic all. erroneous arrangement of statements and application of accounts the rail
 roads are making claims which would
 operate unjustly against the interests of the State of Arkansas, it is now up to the State. so to speak, to md the evidence showing conclusiyely the truth of such contentious and plain!# showing tae errors of the railroads claims.
 Even a temporary injunction re- straining the Arkansas Railroad Com mission from enforcing the tariffs complained of and preventing the two cent-a-mile passenger rate law rom
 heinz enforced would doubtless tie up l the WnOle power cL eiie
 practically all the supervision or COZ ltrol over the railroads and seriously Idamaee the shippers of the State for Ior0bably a number of years, as, alter getting such retraining order, the
 railroads would not then care to push thn matter to a speedy trial, but ob-
 yiously it would be to thelr interests
 to prevent a further hearing of the case as long as possible.
 ] It is therefore the purpose of lllis
 publication to advise the people oI the State generally of the importance oi
 the situation in which they are placed
 regarding this matter and the condl-
 lion affecting the shipping interests 5i
 the State.
 The attorney general of Arkansas . I'd his assistants made an e&cei-eh presentation of such data as they hat , at the preliminary hearing at St. Pau They also pleaded for more time thal : they got to prepare themselves for t9' } important fight that they must max
 at the next hearing, which, as aooi' stated. will be on August 31. The must then be equipped with the neceS 2 sary facts to refute the allegation !, which have been so long in prepafa t ton by the railroads and their attoI e neys if they would expect to win thel l ease, Mere statements will not sufiie' i To get these facts on so short nc - tice from the many intricate detail Q through which railroad operations an
