1t has been pointed out to US by
a member of the council that the
city is, as yet, in no condition to
install waterworks system, as
the maximum amount that can be |
raised by bonding the municipal
ity would not exceed five or six
thousand dollars; that the city |
has practically no revenue aside
from that derived from taxes.
While we admit the truth of. the
statement, it does not do away
with the fact that the burg needs
some kind of fire projections
condition which is made sufficiently
plain by the high insurance rates
prevalent at the present time,
and which rates will continue to
be the fashion just so long as the
city has no means Of fighting a
conflagration-just so long as ex-
listing fire traps stand.
The city's financial condition
does not prevent the formation of
an efficient fire company valu-
able adjunct of which we are at
present deprived.
Neither does it prevent the or
ganization Of private company
to operate a system Of waterworks
and at least give the business
district the protection against fire
which it deserves and must have
if the place is to grow. Such a
company could, and we believe,
ought to be given a favorable
franchise to use the city's streets.
and the annual rentals on few
hydrants would hardly bankrupt
the place.
Beach is noted for the liberality
of it's people. Why wouldn't it
be good scheme for its people
to start in being good to them
selves?

ed last week, and there will be
more cases before spring, and

When manufacturing industries
are established in this state on a
large scale. as they are bound to
be, by reason of the enormous
deposits of coal that underlie the
surface of the state. there will be
large market for all of the pro-
ducts of the farm.
When this time arrives, when
great industries are scattered all
over the state, there will be
home market for all of the wheat
raised; the farmer will be able to
sell his wheat at the mill at his
own door, thus saving the Freight
and the so called dockage, which
will equal 20c the bushel, or an
annual saving of $4,000, 900 to
the wheat grower, so he is as
much interested as any one in
having manufacturing developed
in this state.
Until there is a home market
for all of the grain raised the
grower will be compelled to ship
to the Minnesota terminals, TAX
ing his chances on grading, weight
and docking. The only hope Of
securing square deal for shippers
now is in suitable federal legisla-
tion.
There is measure before the
United States senate known as
McCumber Senate Bill 121," to
provide for the inspection and
grading Of grain. This bill will
be pressed for passage at this ses-
sion and there is likelihood Of its
becoming a law.
Federal inspection Of grain is
of great Importance to every resi-
dent Of the state. 1t means fair
dealings to the farmer at the ter
minals and the improvements it
will bring about in weighing, grad
ing and docking will equal at least
SC the bushel on every bushels
shipped from tie state, thus adj
ding to the state wealth at least
SIS, 000,0 900 annually, being So for
every man woman and child.
This then is a question which
comes home to every one. No one
particular person or organization
is more interested than another.
It is the right and duty Of every
one to work for federal inspection.
The United Grain Growers Associ-
alton will get active in behalf Of
the McCumber bill and do what
it can to make it law, believing as
it does, that it is the best bill
that has been put before the con-
gress.
The farmers must learn to man
age their own business just the
same as the merchant. When the
store keeper marks up the price
of his goods he does not call in
the farmer and ask his advice.
Why should the farmer call in
the merchant and ASK him what
price to put on his grain?
The farmer can control his bust
ness through organizations entire
ly his own differed by farmers
and managed by them alone.

It has been pointed out to us by
a member Of the council that the
city is, as yet, in no condition to
install a waterworks system. as

 This harmless preparation will di- gest anything you eat and overcome a sour, gassy or out ofSbrder stomach five minutes afterwards.
 If your meals don't fit comfortably or what you eat lies like lump of lead in your stomach, or if you have heartburn, that is sign Of indiges- tion.
 Get from your pharmacist a 5O-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin and take a dose just as soon as you can. There will be no sour risings, no belching of undigested food mixed with acid, no stomach gas or heartburn, fullness or heavy feelings in the. stomach, nausea, facilitating headaches, dizzi- ness or intertinal gripping. This will all go, and, besides, there will be no sour food left over in the stomach to poison your breath with nauseous odors.
 Pape's Diapepsin is certain cure for out-of-order stomachs, because it takes hold of your food and digests it just the same as if your stomach wasn't there.
 Relief in five minutes from all stomach misery is waiting for you at any drug store.

 Commission Has Already Acted.
 The Arkansas Railroad Commission has already acted in behalf of the contention of the tap lines that the agreements should not be cancelled without a hearing to determine the real status of the individual lines. A lengthy request, covering every phase of the case, was forwarded to Chair man Martin Knapp, of the Interstate Commerce Commission, by tAe Ark ansas Railroad Commission, asking that orders be issued to supersede the proposed trunk line tariffs in can cellation of tap line agreements, and setting out ttat the indiscriminate "confounding of the innocent with the guilty" would result disastrously to railroad development and business in- terests generally, not only in Arkan- sas, but in the entire southwest, as the tap lines have been an important factor in commerce throughout this whole section.
 This order followed a hearing be- fore the railroad commission, at which the tap line owners and independent mill owners, were present, and in which the only plea advanced was that the tap lines be given an oppor- tunity to prove that they are "com- mon carriers" within the meaning and intent of the law, and not mere ly lumber. roads handling only pri- vate traffic.
 It was further contended that the definition of a common carrier, as interpreted by the trunk lines, under the recent ruling of the Interstate Commerce Commission, was not in accord with the definition as estab- lished by the courts in previous ac- tions involving the rights of common carriers.
 All these matters are involved in the litigation represented in the ac- tion of the Malvern and Freo Valley Railroad Company in asking for temporary restraining order, and adds importance to the ruling of the court in sustaining the injunction petition.

 Pardon for Cooper.
 Gov. Donaghey has issued a pardon to Robert Cooper, a convict who is oil hut laod with mi inn Tho pardon was issued at the request of the physicians at the penitentiary. Cooper was convicted in Izard county of murder and given g years in the penitentiary. He arrived at the in- stitution last April, suffering then from the ravages of the disease. He has grown rapidly worse and the penitentiary physician has permitted him to spend all of his time in the woods on the outside of the walls. Cooper made no effort to escape, and if he had the penitentiary authorities would have made no effort to recap ture him. Cooper will be sent to his ldulils, ScNeldi olAe1 ulSuuuc1o ol which are in the advanced stages of the disease.
 Checking Schools.
 For the purpose of starting an ef- fort to combine the small schools of the state and thus extend the appropria- tions for Arkansas schools, the De- partment of Education Thursday af- ternoon checked up the schools of the state which last year had 35 pu- pills or less. They found 112 with 10 pupils, 179 with 15, 636, with 25, and 931 with 35. An effort will be made during the year to combine these with others near by and allow the appropriation for the small schools to go to the assistance of the larger.

 Last Appeal for No. 10.
 A last appeal for Amendment No. 10, numbering about 100000 copies, has been prepared by Gov. Donaghey and today began to go through the mails to the voters. The appeal is a strong one, and Gov. Donaghey en- deavors to show by it that the oppon- ents of tlfe Amendment are opposed to the people rule. and they are against the amendment itself, this be- ing shown by their failure to say good for it.
