Partial Report to Court.
SETTLEMENT is MADE
Executors Turn Over to County Treas
urer Sum of 1,216.86.-Wil-
merton Estate Pays.

The largest sum ever paid to the
state in this county, under the state
inheritance tax law, was paid yester-
DAY by the executors of the estate of
the late Charles Fl. Deere of Moline.
The sum paid over TO the county
treasurer on the order of Judge r.
w. Olmsted is but a partial settle
ment of the tax on the estate. but it
is nevertheless considerably larger
than any other like tax since the law
went into effect. The partial report
showed that there was due S11.S07 %.
When the tax is paid within six
months an allowance of 5 per cent, is
made, and if the tax is not paid in
six months, per cent is added Thus
the amount paid yesterday was SILL
21G,SG. This covers the greater part
of the estate, although there will be
still more to be paid.
The inheritance tax on the estate
of the late Squire William Wilmerton
was settled this month. A large por-
lion of the estate proved to be ex-
empt from the tax, but the sum of ST.
1929 was turned over by the ex-
ecutors.

That is far from sufficient break down the fibre of
beans. To separate the the digestive juices
get to them.
The result is heavy food hard to digest.
You bake in dry The result the top beans
crisped. The others half baked.
You burst the skins, the beans nutty. They
mushy, not mealy Every bean should be whole.
Then you add the tomato afterwards.
You spend hours the process but the dish that results
is neither good good for you.

debrlt Ill net revenue, the case might have been treated differently by the commission, For instance. if you had proposed :! 1-2 cent passenger rate the commission might have made no objection to it, pending final settle ment of the injunction question.
 But, admittedly. the raise in freight and passenger rates has been
 made in each department regardless
 of the increase in the other depart-
 nent and, as we believe, without any
 feason or justneSs. On this ground,
 | earnestly advise the rejection of
 !he rates by the railroad commission"
 The passenger officials had little to
 sa, i'll the case, and the commission declared the hearing ended, with the
 statement that the matter would be taken under advisement and a deci- sion reached promptly this afternoon. While the decision is, therefore, in abeyance, there is little doubt but that the commission will issue an or dcI prohibiting the enforcement of the three-cent rates, and signifying
 their intention to punish every viola 1ion of such order.

WILL OPPOSE 
 SCENT RATE
aftorne, General kirby Advises Com.
 mission to Emphaticall! Oppose New Passenger Believed Order Against Rates Will be Made.

Little Rock, Ark. Nov. 7.-Declar- ing that careful investigation had con- yinced the representatives of the State Railroad Commission that the new three-cent passenger rates placed in effect by the five trunk lines of the state, under the Federal court in- functions. has been made without any reference to the raise proposed in the freight rates, and that the new tariffs are evidently unreasonable, Attorney General Kirby this morning advised the commission to oppose emphatic ally the operation of the three-cent passenger rates as proposed by the lines ill question.
 The three-cent rate was placed in effect again several weeks ago, the commission serving notice that it would take up the matter today for Investigation as to whether or not the tariffs would be approved or rejected In the meantime the freight rates have also been raised about 75 per cent and placed in operation.
 At the hearing this morning large number of traffic men were present,
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1908-11-08

and the attorney general, represent ing the commission, asked some very pertinent questions. .He wanted tl know if the railroad companies had taken into consideration the fact that the freight rates were to be given al enormous raise. when they made out their new passenger tariffs. They replied that they did not that the passenger rates were made without any reference to the proposed freigh, rate raise.
 They were then asked now they had reconciled the fact that the freight rates had been raised sufficiently 1C return revenue on railway traffic with the fact that the passenger rate, had been raised sufficiently to pro- lducn the same result. Tn other words he pointed out that the rates for each department had been made, appar- ently. for the purpose of returning a net revenue on the whole business ot the transportation lines.
 "This," said MT. Kirby, lis wholly unreasonable. You have returned to the former passenger rates, un, der which you did business and made money while the commissi ions freight rates were in effect, and at the same time you add the additional burden of doubling the freight rates. If you had proposed a compromise passen- ger rate, showing that you merely expected each department to stand its share in making up the alleged
