OUT OF TOWN MERCHANTS
COMPLAIN STORAGE CHARGES
The Ardmorete Publishes the Storage Rules and Invites
Merchants Who Have Complaints TO File Them With
This Paper. These Charges Are Uniform
Throughout the State

v A. Niblack who visits The mer-
chants in the smaller towns west OF
here says that a number of these mel.
chants are making the charge that
the railroads at Ardmorc are collect.
ing storage charges Oh freight In cN-
cess of what is collected uu The Rock
Island west of here and that the coun-
try merchants are thrcatcuiug TO have
their goods shipped To other points
Tor delivery.
Dr Robert s willard of Brock says
that he paid storage charges hat are
entirely out OF reason and John Cor
nish of Cornish said thai he had heart
some complaint MIR. Cornish said the
Rock Island main line is located near
or many of the towns than Ardmore
is aud thought goods w,rc taken out
az Waurika and Duncan before stor.
age charges accumulated.
It is very true that railroad com
panies are entitled TO storage. II not
they would be imposed upon in many
instances and under the law they are
required To make the collection. The
rate book for these storage charges
is published and there is no cNcuav
Tor any person to pay more than he
should
one feature of the storage rules
which is probably unjust and tha,
will be changed in this state is that
the same rule applies TO all whether
tho consignee lives near the depot OF
whether he lives many miles away.
when this rule Is changed then tno
merchant out of town will be placed
ON exactly he same basis as the me'
chant who lives here.
MI Riley agent for the Santa F'
here stated that the same law and
rul 3 apply 10 all the railroads OF the
state thai all charge the same amount
for storage That Il merchant In ord
ering goods will have no advantage
by shipping to some other town.
The merchants who have been
charged in excess of what they think
they should pay should investigate ev
cry charge. They hays the freight
bin which is a receipt for the amour,
they pay and this bin win oa'" the
storage charged.
Here are the rules that apply to thu
shipments of freight and every man
who is not pleased with his shipmen
should clip this statement from the
paper, or better still have the agent
show his rults for storage charges
II this is done the man who receives

NOTES OF BAPTIST CAMPAIGN

Rev. F. F. Gibson of Ft. Smith, who conducted very successful revival meeting in this city two years ago, came in on the early morning train and is helping in the Baptist campaign today. He started out as soon as he had eaten nasty breakfast, and is busy mak- ing the rounds. He will have part in the services at the church to- night at 7:3o, and then leave on the 10 o'clock train, for his home.
 Rev. R. c. Bowers of Little Rock came in on the 10 o'clock train aud will be in the campaign during the day. He was until re- gently secretary of missions for Ar kansas, but is now financial agent for Ouachita ana Central colleges. Mir. Bowers led movement to erect new Baptist church in Wa co just before coming to this state several years ago.
 Rev. J. 5. Rogers o1 Fine bluH came up this morning and is work ing with the Baptists. He will soon move to Little Rock, having been elected to the secretaryship of Baptist mission work. He is one of the most earnest and force ful of the young ministers of the state.
 There was a prayer meeting at the church this morning at 6:3o of unusual spiritual fervor. Though the people realize fully their weak ness financially, they have mind to work and to sacrifice.
 Everybody is invited to the mass meeting at the church tonight at 7:3o o'clock.

SPEECH HAD
 OPPOSITE EFFECT

Little Rock, December By the frigid atmosphere of the speech delivered by Senatar Jas. P. Clarke at the Arkansas River Improve ment Association, the proposed SIoo, 900 packet line to ply the waters of the Arkansas, was ex- pected to get a set back, but the speech acted as tonic for the en- terprise instead. Senator Clarke said in his speech, before calling the Arkansas river a scape goat and saying that it would be the best for all concerned If 1t dried up, that tonnage would have to be shown before an appropriation could be secured. While the packet line proposition was never taken up by the convention oatur- day, it was talked over informally, and enough offered to take stock in the enterprise to make 1t a go, and stock will probably be placed on the market as soon as the con- pany is formed, which is but a routine matter now. The princl- pal business of the company will be for some time, the hauling of coal to Little Rock. In this con- nection short line of railroad may be constructed to the river from several large mines along the river, in the hard coal belt, and this coal brought to Little Rock in the barges. The plans of those behind the company are rather secret at the present time, but those interested say they are working satisfactorily. Little tonnage IS expected by the promoters, other than in coal, but the packet lines are expected to push further and further up the river after coal.

 MT. Cox was out early this morn ing on the rounds talking up the Baptist church movement. He says when he helped raise $2 ,ooc here five years ago he thought it would be sufficient for many years to come; but Conway has grown along many lines since that time and he is glad to come back and help boost for Conway institution again. MT. Cox says that no other institution in the world is worth SC much to a community as a church He says churches and school: raise the value of real estate, in crease the volume of business and help in other material ways; anc any business man can afford to in' vest in a church.
