ORDERLINESS
IS BIG ASSET

g, To teach children habits of neat
ness, system, and order, says Orison
SWEET Marden in an article in Sue
cess Magazine" is to insure some de-
gree, at least, of success. Yet they
are often brought up amid disorder
and confusion, allowed to throw things
down just where they use them, and
to form slovenly and slipshod habits.
They are not taught to put things
where they belong, and consequently
they grow up shackled with handicaps
which they can rarely throw off.
If there is any delusion in the
world. it is that doing things just for
Anow," dropping things wherever one
may happen to be temporarily saves
time. On the contrary, this is a great
time waster and great demoralizer
of character. A bad habit not only
tends to repeat itself, but to increase
the tendency in that direction.
If you were not taught the beau
tiful lesson of orderliness in your
youth, teach it to yourself now.

mission.

Little Rock, Ark, Aug ga large
number of telephone companies of
Arkansas are now default with the
state for failing to file with the Ark
ansas Tax Commission an assessment
OF the property of the concerns. The
act OF 1911 which changed the meth
DDS of assessing the property of cor
porations, made it imperative for
telephone companies to file their as
sessments with the Tax Commission
by the first Monday in July. Only a
few of the companies complied with
the law and two months ago the Com
mission secured the names of all tele.
phone companies and sent blanks to
them. together with notice of how the
assessments must be filed. A large
number complied, but there are vet
great many delinquents which the
Tax Commission believes must have
assessed with the county assessor.
The Tax Commission Friday sent to
all assessors of the state letter in
forming them they cannot legally as
sess telephone property, and asking
that IT any assessments have been
filed with them they be sent on to
the Commission Immediately, and all
other telephone companies of the
county be advised of the law. The
Commission must certify the county
assessors by Sept. l, the value of all

NO MONEY FOR
nOOkWORM FIGHT
Attorney General Norwood Says There
is no. Law Authorizing Counties
TO Make Appropriations.

Little Rock, Ark, Aug. 26.-Two
opinions were rendered Friday after
noon by Attorney General Norwood
The first went to DR.. Morgan Smith,
secretary of the medical board of Ark
ansas, who asked if the county courts
could make appropriation for free dis
pensaries to assist in combating the
hookworm disease. Attorney General
Norwood held there was no statute
under which such an appropriation
could be made. DR.. Smith IS the lead
ed in the fight against hookworm in
Arkansas and has just returned from
Columbia county, where he declares
one half the children are suffering
with the disease. The county court
would like to aid in the fight, but the
law will not permit. The other opin-
ion was to Henry D. Green, deputy
Insurance Commissioner. There was
some dispute as the whether the laws
of Arkansas would permit an unin-
corporated association of individual
underwriters, such as the Subscribers
at United State Lloyds doing business
In the state. This big company APP
piled for admission Thursday and the
papers were issued before the dispute
arose. Attorney General Norwood
states the acts of 1911 will permit the
COMPANY to do business in Arkansas
upon the payment of a $4,000, fee,
which was paid.

THE SENATOR
FROM NEVADA

Senator Newlands, of Nevada, whC
was for ten years a member of the
House, and who has been nearly as
| long in the Senate. is one of<the most
devoted students in public life writes
Judson c. Welliver in Success Maya
zine" He gave the country its great
in the advance of important reftau,
! measures, and is Democrat bic
enough to see the national view with
out being irregular. Though for
sound money, yet he has been the uni
form and vigorous supporter of Bry-
an, to whom indeed he is so close a
friend that there are reasons why
Newlands might easily prove to have
Bryan's support for the Presidential
State Of Nevada has but six votes in
national convention; but California
and the whole intermountain and Pac-
ific country are interested in making
him. sort of cosmopolitan candidate.
He has great business interests in
California, Nevada and Washington;
was born in Mississippi, educated at
yale, and has long maintained import
ant business relations with the big
gest powers in New York.
Senator Newlands has been trying
to commit the Senate to legislative
program which includes physical val
uation of railroads, Federal control
of all capital issues of railroads, and
the establishment of an interstate
trade commission with powers over
industrial corporations analogous to
those of the Interstate Commerce
Commission over railroads.
This latter proposal he has formula
ted in a bill which is meeting an I'M
expectedly favorable reception. Chair
man Clapp, the insurgent head of the
Interstate Commerce Committee in
the Senate, favors such legislation and
has taken steps to conduct long and
careful inquiry with the purpose of
demonstrating the need for it. Mr.
Newlands has not gone SO far as to
demand that this trade commission
fix prices of trust-controlled staples,
but Acknowledgement Wickersham, go
ing him one better, has even advocated
such governmental policy. In his
fairly sensational Duluth speech the
declared that a COM
mission such as Newlands has long
favored was desirable, and might
prove absolutely necessary Thus,
enough, the radical New
lands, the conservative Wickersham
and the capitalistic Gary are found
practically at one in this startlingly
modern socialistic, if you please-pro-
posal for answering the questions that
are raised by the conditions of the
times. That competition has failed
to regulate prices and con-
and that the effort to restore
1t must prove fatuous, constitute the
basic contention of people who be-
lieye in these ultro-progressive mea-
sures.
