The latest story of how a big cor poration can be done" by simple minded rural folks comes from New York. It seems that q large contractor was doing some dynamiting in a New England town and a rock from a blast fell upon the shop of a blacksmith. going through the roof, but doing no other damage. The blacksmith, with out waiting for a conference with the agents of the concern. immediately began suit for s20o. The superintend- ent of the company thought that this was an exorbitant demand. but was on the point of paying it. when their local attorney advised him not to do so. on the ground that if it went to trial the blacksmith would not get more than $50. Somewhat reluctantly he took the attrney's advice and the case went to trial The jury brought ia a verdict for the full s200; sl50 costs were also assessed against the concern: while the local attorneys bill wes for $500. making a total of $S50 for whica the giant corporation from the metropolis was muleged by Fhe children of natEre.--Boston Trans cript

company, said:
 There seems to be some misunder- standing about the bridge question and the election to be held in Jeffer- son county December l. While the passage of the bridge bill has been and is an issue in that campaign, the proposition to build the bridge is not to be voted upon at that election, but is a matter which is to be taken up by the commission with the property owners.
 Some of the opposition to the bridge development are large pro perty holders, and among the best and most progressive citizens of Jeffer- sen county, but, as st ted before, 1t is believed this opposition is due to an erroneous idea of the cost of the bridge, and possibly a misunder- standing of the provisions of the bridge bill While in Pine Bluff 1 had talk about the bridge with Col. John NJ. Oracle who is a large landownei,
 
 ill Jefferson county, and a very pro- gressive man, which is illustrated by his recent visit to Louisiana with his employees to gain knowledge how to combat the boil Weevil He has been very much opposed to the building of the bridge, but when informed of the offer to build it within the limits quoted seemed very much interested. and it is my impression, from the talk l had with him and other largo tax payers in the county, that if a conference of the interested parties IS held, all differences czn be satis- factorily adjusted, and the opposition withdrawn

INTERURbAN IS
 ALMOST ASSURED
Solving of Bridge Building at Pin. Bluff Solves Most Perplexing
 Problem.

Little Rock, Ark, Nov. 21.-The in- terurbs Il line to connect Little Rock with Pine Bluff now seems to be an assured fact. Men familiar With the present plans of the promoters stat :. ed yesterday that the conditions to be asked of the people of the two cities, and between the two cities, will be very reasonable, and, in th.e judgment of good business men, will be readily accepted. The building of the bridge at Pine Bluff will solve the entire problem. The Bridge 10 be constructed st that point will be free, highway bridge, open to a'l steam and electric roads, but such roads will be compelled to pay the Improvement district a toll, which IS expected in few years to pa. the . interest and retire the bonds. Al ready one steam and one electric road have submitted propositions to cross this bridge, and the steam road mas made a proposition to the Bus ness Mems League at Pine Bluff to built ifs road to the north approach ol tie bridge in time to haul steel ana other material to be used in the con- struction of the bridge.
 There has been some opposition to , the bridge, which opposition, So T was decls red yesterday, is probably due to an erroneous Idea of it's cos, there having been a general impress sion that this would be between s1 .ooO ,oOO and $1,5o0,o00. Followln5 an investigation by competent ell gineers and one of the largest DrldSe building concerns in the country finapciers have altered to enter lnto . surety bonds to build the bridge com plete, including approaches, for $65o,- 900, and have offered to take per cent bonds running over long period of years. The commission has ac' cepted this proposition, subject to the approval of the property owners. il was declared yesterday.

city of Camden. The signatures at tached to both sets of petitions are practically the same, and it is sup posed that the petitioners propose to seek action upon whichever set later proves to be the most pract1c- able.
 Both the constitutional amendment and the statute proposed would give the mayor of Camden the right to issue licenses for the sale of liquor to such persons as may be deemed Gt good moral character. It is provided that the license fee for the city of Camden shall not be less than $600 in addition to the county and state tax.
 It is further provided that the pro- posed amendment or statute shall be submitted to the people of Camden at the general election to be held on the first Tuesday of April, 1912.
 It is expected that these petitions will raise many questions involved in the enabling act passed by the last legislature, putting the initiative and referendum into effect. Among other questions involved is the one as to be the election at which such local matters should be submitted.
 Ouachita county, of which Camden is the county seat, was voted dry al the last general election, but the prohibitionsts, not being satisfied witl that, secured the passage by the last legislature of a special act pro- hibiting the $. le of liquor within a radius of 10 miles of d certain point in Camden. In view of these facts It is expected that the petitions fllea with the secretary of state will bring up some unusual points, and will re- suit in the settlement of many dis puted ponts with reference to tn initiative and referendum.
