Independence County
 to HaUe q Drainage Ditch Nearly 8 MiiesI
 in Length VIII Cost
 About SIS, 500. 5 |

Little Rock.-A piece of quick sur yeying and estimate work for the Mud Creek drainage district near Newark, in Independence county, has just been completed and the report sent to Batesviile by a Little Rock firm of engineers.
 It was necessary for the work to be pushed with all possible speed in or der to get the estimates ready for action, at this term of the county court. The work had been delayed because of litigation in the matter instituted by a few property holders through whose land the district runs. They objected to the taxation for the drainage district. A recent decision of the supreme court settled the case in favor of the district promoters.
 The proposed drainage ditch is to be seven and one-half miles long, with one-half mile lateral drain, and will cost, it is estimated, s1S,500 It will drain a tract of land covering 3,200 acres. This district lies immediately south of Newark, in Independence county.
 This is one of three districts for drainage of tracts in thar county. One is in operation and two others beside the Mud Creek district are under con temptation. The work of preparing the estimates and making the plats was done by Little Rock engineers.
 It is estimated that the value of land now virtually covered by water most of the time will be increased in some cases about 250 per cent. It is said that all the land drained by the ditch or affected by it in any way will increase in value as soon as the drainage work is started.

ASK CITIZENS TO HELP A RAILROAD
Future of Defunct Railroad Depends
 On Peoples Treatment.

Dardanelle. - Whether or not the Dardanelle, Ola & Southern railway continues in operation or will be abandoned and the track taken up, depends upon the people of this place, according to w. c. Fordyee, re- ceiYer for the railroad.
 Mir. Fordyce says that his company has furnished $7O,000 for the building and operation of the road and that it has received no further returns than the interest for two months out of three years. He further states that the revenue of the road is so small at present as hardly to justify the expectation that it can be continued in operation, but if the people of Oar danelle are sufficiently interested to support the line with their traffic it will be possible to increase its earn ing capacity so as to justify it's con tinued operation. If they do not feel sufficient interest to support it, the logical result will be that the rails will be taken up and the operation of the line abandoned"

ESTABLISH PAPER MILL IN ARKANSAS
Former Little Rock Man Believes it
 Would Be a Success.

Little Rock.-C. W. Schimmelfen ming, a former Little Rock man, who now lives in Chicago, proposes to see to it personally that Little Rock gets a paper mill. He says:
 we are going to build paper mill in Arkansas, which will be one of the most practical mills, using the latest improved machinery, with au- topIatic appliances and able to com pete with the largest plants in the United States. We propose to patron ize home industries always-supplies and raw material to be procured from local people and home labor to do the work. We. propose to build the plant with the majority of the stock held by Arkansas people. Perhaps 1t is not known by the people of Arkan- sas that wood is being cut and ship ped from the southern part of their state to the pulp mills of Europe What can be the conclusion when yc.t have the material. the mill and the market? It is this-a splendid op- portunity for investment in home industry"

 With Broken Neck, Is Found.

Batesville.-Burges Scroggins, a farmer, 59 years old, was arrested here and placed in jail pending an in vestigation of the death of his T. year-old deaf and dumb stepson, Har- rison livery.
 The child was poorly developed physically, and it was only during the past few months that he was able to walk, it is stated. He disappeared from his home near Hutchinson post office about three weeks ago. and his mother, becoming alarmed, informed the neighbors. While a search was being made, Scroggins suggested that they look in a certain place in branch that ran through a field some dis tance from the house. The place was located and the body was found The child, according to the coroner, had been dead some time, and upon ex- animation his neck was found to be broken and the body badly bruised. The fact that the child was so far from the house aroused suspicion, as he was, according to his mother, never known to walk such a distance

KNIGHTS TEMPLAR HOLD
 PERENNIAL IN CHICAGO
Great Concave Presided Over by Acting Grand Master MeIish-- Wonderful Parade Through Elaborately Decorated Streets Is the
 Most Spectacular Feature

Chicago.-Marching to the music of forty-two bands and the almost equal ly melodious cheers of hundreds of thousands of their relatives, friends and admirers, some 50.000 Knights Templar took part August g in the greatest parade ever held by the or der. Their waving plumes and fine uniforms were fittingly set off by the beautiful decorations of the streets and buildings, and the scene was one that will not soon be forgotten by those who were fortunate enough to witness it.
 This magnificent parade was the climax, in a spectacular way. of the thirty-frst triennia1 conclave of Knights Templar, which opened here on Sunday, Aug. '. In accordance with the time honored custom of the srand encampment, the doings of the week began with divine service.

DAIRYING INDUSTRY IN CARROLL co.
Business Is Growing and Farmers Are
 Making Money.

Berryville-The dairy business has received a great impetus in Carroll county during the last year. Three cream-shipping stations were estab- lished in the county last summer and have been doing a good business. As result of having a market for their cream, many farmers are preparing to go into ,dairying extensively. The station that has been operating here has paid out about s5,000 for the years business, which means that the farmers are establishing reg ular income from a source that has heretofore yielded them but little profit. Another eream-shipping sta- tion is to be established here soon.

FOUND DYIN6 WITH LAMP IN HAND
Low Voltage of Electricity Believed to
 Have Killed Fort Smith Man.

Fort Smith.-James Brown, aged 34, married man, was electrocuted or died suddenly while handling an attached incandescent light at the Fort Smith Refrigerator Works. He was found lying on the floor of the machine room in a dying condition In his hand he clutehed the electric lamp. His right thumb had been burned to the bone. Whether Brown was stricken with heart disease while at work on top of the machine or whether he was electrocuted by the lamp seems a matter of conjecture It is stated that he had suffered re- gently with fainting spells The wire feeding the light had voltage of no, which is said by physicians to be sufficient to kill a man in his condition.

 Much of the success of the conclave must be attributed to the efforts Of John D. Cleveland, grand commander of Illinois and president of the tri- ennial executive committee.

 Parade of The Knights.
 The grand parade" of Tuesday was the largest parade of Knights Templar ever held. The preparations were elaborate and Michigan boulevard was most elaborately decorated. The sir knights formed in line of march on the boulevard south of Thirty-frst street, and signal to move was given by the guns of Battery B, I. N. G., the detachment for the purpose being composed of Knights Templar all of whom are members of the battery. The same detachment fired the salute to the grand master.
 Marching nOTInWdTO III MlcHlSdn boulevard, the parade passed, near Hubbard court, beneath an entrance arch built In the form of an ancient | battlement with it's towers and tur- i rets.

 Beautiful "TempIar Way"
 At Washington street the marchers turned west to State, where they en. tered on the "Templar Way" This stretch extended from Randolph to Van Buren street and was made beau titul by handsome arch and massive Corinthian columns of pure white erected thirty-three feet apart on both sides of the street. Festoons of natur- al laurel connected the columns. and the bright red cross and the shield and coat of arms of the order were prominent in the scheme of decora. tion.
 Moving south to Jackson boulevard, the knights again turned west, and near the federal building passed be- fore yet another reviewing stand which accommodated Governor Deneen and his Staff Marching north on La Salle street, the parade passed be- meath the grand commandery arch of pure white which spanned the street at the La Sale hotel, the headquarters Of the grand commandery of Illinois. This was beautiful structure de- signed by one of Chicagos most fa- nous sculptors. Upon it's top stood the figures of mounted knights four teen feet high. At the new city hall on Washington street the parade was dismissed, after marching forty-three blocks.
 Care For the Marchers.
 Everything that could be thought of for the comfort of the paraders and the spectators was done by the local committees. In nearly every block along the line of march were station ed physicians who were also knights templar, with trained nurses and equipment for emergency cases. In addition, emergency hospitals to be kept open day and night during the conclave were established at many points in the center of the city, and at the West Side ball park which was oC4CNtSd eS Iut DletCS ACi tl4S 6OtHp pCtE= tive drills.
 Wednesday and Thursday were the days set apart for the drills for which handsome trophies are awarded. and band concerts, sight seeing and many receptions were on the program.
 Entrancing Scenes at Night.
 The scene in the streets at night was especially beautiful, for all the arches, festoons and columns of the decorative scheme were brilliantly H. luminated, and on State street, in ad- dition to the "Templar Way" the mer- chants had put. up decorations that transformed the great shopping dis trict into a veritable fairly land
 Undoubtedly the most spectacular feature of the night display was the wonderful electric set piece erected in Grant park on the lake front, re- producing in colossal size the official emblem or badge of the conclave. It was 150 feet high and it's 5000 power

REPUBLICANS WON
A GREAT VICTORY

The result of the election last
Tuesday is highly gratifying to
Governor Hadley and very de-
pressing to partisan Democrats.
although they affect some pleas
ure over what the election re-
turns indicate--for some of
them see more political advan-
age in a Democratic legislature
than in the success of the Re-
publican State ticket.
Practical men in politics know
that the election of their State
ticket by Republicans this year
means much more in state poll
tics than the election of ma
jority in both houses of the Gen.
eral Assembly by the Democrats.
The success of the Republican
State ticket means, under all Of
the circumstances. that Missouri
is reliably Republican. While
several other states ruled by Re-
publicans were captured by the
Democrats, Missouri stood firm
as far as the Republican State
ticket is concerned. In close
counties, where money was
freely used to elect Democratic
members of the legislature.
the voters who went over to the
enemy voted for everything
Democratic and thus gave the
Democrats an advantag in con-
gressional contests and added
somewhat to the total vote for
Democratic State candidates,
but there were enough loyal,
faithful Republicans and pa
triotic Independents to elect the
entire Republican State ticket.

the Democratic member longest
in service and putting in his
place a Republican who had no
particular pull in politics and a
limited acquaintance among the
people. This in itself shows that
the Republican party vote is the
strongest and that, on fair
test, there are more real Repub-
licans than Democrats in the
State.
