CALDWELL & DRAKE IN II
CHARGED WITH FAULTY CON SEDUCTION IN OMAHA
 COURTHOUSE.

Little Rock, March 17.-According to reports which have been received here, Caldwell X Drake, the contrac- tors of the state capitol who were de- posed by Governor Donaghey, are having their troubles with the county at Omaha over alleged faulty con struction in the $1,000,000 courthouse which is being erected there.
 Several copies of the Omaha World Herald were received in Little Rock yesterday, giving accounts of the pro ceedings in Omaha. The accounts state that dissatisfaction was display ed over the way the building was be- ing constructed by Caldwell & Drake and and inspection was demanded The inspectors were not permitted to go in the building and the matter was taken into court and an injune- tion secured which prevented the con tractors shutting out the inspectors.
 A later copy of the paper says that the riveting was found to be very in- secure and not done according to plans and specifications. This brought forth protest from the steel mills which supplied the girders and other rolled metal. Another inspection was made and this time the report showed 50 per cent of the riveting on the structural steel work of the court house was faulty, but none of this done by the mills which put in rivets before shipping the steel, and all the fault was with Caldwell x Drake, the contractors.

WATERSPIERCE MUST PAY
HOLDS CREDITS OF OIL COMPANY ARE
 ASSESSABLE.

Little Rock, March 17.-In the case of the Waters-Pierce Oil Company vs. Roberts, collector of Pulaski county, Chancellor Martineau decided against the company and refused to enjoin the collector from collecting the tax. The suit grew out of an assessment against the Waters-Pierce Oil Com pany made at the instance of the state tax commission. The company has general office in Little Rock, also a warehouse at which it keeps it's oil products and from which it sells at retail and wholesale It also has numerous branch warehouses and offices at other points in the state from which it sells oils for cash and on credit. The company assessed it's stock of goods, but did not assess it's credits, consisting of notes and ac- counts, incident to the Arkansas business. The books of account and other evidence of these credits for the business done in the state are all kept at Little Rock. They are collect ed from Little Rock and are sent to the home office at St. Louis after they have been reduced to cash. The com pany is St. Louis corporation.
 At the instance of the state tax commission on November IS, 1909, the Pulaski county board of equalization took the matter up and finding that the assessable value of these credits was $35,000 proceeded to assess same In January the company filed suit to enjoin the collection of the tax on these credits, alleging that the Wat Diapco oil Cnrnnanu hoinU for eign corporation, with headquarters at St. Louis, the suits of the credits was in St. Louis and they were deem ed not assessable here. The company also attacked the right of the equalz- ation board to act in November after the levying court had adjourned.
 Judge Martineau ruled against the company on both points. He held that so far as personal property was concerned the equalization board could act with respect to it at any time before tax-paying time, and that so far as the credits sought to be tax ed in Arkansas.
 All of the packing companies doing business in Little Rock were assessed at the same time and on the same account as was the Waters-P Pierce Oil Company, the information upon which the assessments were made having been secured and submitted to the board by the state tax commission.
 The decision in the case the Wat ers-Pierce Oil Company settles the other cases The Waters-Pierce peo- pie will appeal to the supreme court.
 The state tax commission has col lected data against the delinquent companies for the past year and will take steps at once toward collecting same.
 It is stated that the Waters Pierce Oil Company will be sued for back taxes amounting to S10,000 for the past ten years, and that the packing companies will be sued for the entire time they have been doing business in the state

COTTON SHIPMENTS
 ARE AHEAD OF 1907

County Judge J. A. Lea this morn ing appointed Drs. George s. Brown, G. D. Dickerson and I. N. McCollum of Conway and Dr. w. T. Mcdonald of Holland as members of the county board of health. The terms of the old members expired some months ago and new board had not been ap- pointed until today. A few cases of smallpox reported at Holland, 15 miles east of Conway, caused Judge Lea to take action in appointing the board, and in sending their appoint ments, County Clerk J. H. Bailey re- quested the members to meet and or ganize as early as convenient.

 HEALTH IS NAMED

Fourteen thousand, four hundred and sixty-seven bales of cotton have been shipped from Conway during the present season, as compared with 12, 333 to the same date in 1908, and 21,- 570 to the same date last year. The indications are that the total ship ments, while of course falling consid- erably short of the preceding season, will run ahead of the shipments from the 1907 crop. During the latter season 15,072 bales were shipped from Conway, while during the sea son ending September l, 1909, the to- tai shipments were 23,5S1. The stock of cotton in the hands of local buyers is only about 400 bales.

FULTON STOCK COMPANY.

In "'rhe Heir to the Hoorah," the attraction at the Capital theater at the hands of the Fulton Stock Com pany, some excellent comedy is fur nished in the characters of the West ern miners, who are forced by stress of circumstances to don evening clothes. It is not only that the men are as uncomfortable in convention al garb as they would be in straight jackets, but the means of holding up the neither garments by belts and the gaps of white shirt showing between trousers and vests make a ludicrous effect, which keeps the audience laughing all the time they are on. These roles of Dave Lacey and Bud Young, partners in the Hoorah mine, and Bill Ferguson, miner, and Gus Ferguson, ranchman, are very well taken by Frank Bond, Roy P. Knotte, Charles Murray and Gus Ferris, re- spectvely, and their work forms a very enjoyable part of good comedy. Gazette, March IT, 1910.
 The Fulton Stock Company plays tomorrow night at the Grand opera house in this city, and will no doubt be greeted by large audience.
