ASSESSMENTS
TAX Commission WORK
N F o r M A TION EXPLAINING
TURNER-JACOBSON BILL AL
so BEING SENT OUT.

Little Rock, Aug. 24.-The Arkan-
sas tax commission is now completing
the work of assessing the different
railroads of the state, though it will
yet be several weeks before the
amount of the assessments against the
| big corporations is announced. The
commission has assessed the Arkan-
sas Pipe Lines Company, which has
just completed line to Little Rock.
Hot Springs and Pine Bluff. about
S1,25O,O00, which means about S25,-
900 annually in taxes to the different
counties through which the line runs.
The commission is also sending out
much information upon the Turner
jacobson bill. The latest information
is to explain why the time of assess
ing was moved up until February.
This was in order that the assessors
of the big counties should have more
than two months to make their assess
ments. Two months gives the asses
sors in the big counties little more
than just time enough to copy the pre-
vlous years assessments, without get
ting out and looking up improve
ments, and it is in the big counties
that the large corporation have their
investments.
1t has been stated by those opposed
to the Turner-J acobson bill that the
move was made to catch the farmer,
as his barns will be filled at that time
of the year. 81 would like to know
what they are full Off" queries D. A.
Gates of the commission. "The farm
er has no cotton at that time of the
year, and if he has he is able to hold
it, and in that case he is able to pay
taxees. His barn has little corn and
little hay. 1t makes no difference
what time of the year the assessments
are made, the total is about the same.
In February the farmer has not his
colts, his calves or his young pigs to
assess, and they come in under the
old time of assessing. The talk of
soaking the cotton brokers by assess
ing IN February is bosh. The assess
ment is made upon the average stock
of goods carried for the entire year.
The big cotton firms pay this now and
it makes no difference to them if the
assessment is made in January or
july"

EasiIx Made Niahtdre.sss.

For the girl who makes her own lin gerie there is an easily fashioned nightdress which has only side and shoulder seams, as it is in two pieces. with kimonO sleeves cut in one with the body of the garment A pretty as well as simple way of making this style of nightdress Is to use very sheer material and devote almost the entire sum of money set aside for the gar ment to it's purchase rather than to a few yards of expensive trimming since the extra fuliness. at the top when finely plaited sufficiently orna- ments the front and back, and the square neck and loose, straight sleeves may be finished with inch wide bands of plain muslin applied under q fine beading.
 Another slip over the head style of nightdresS fastens in the back and is of distinctly empire type. Only two straight widths of fine nainsook are required for this garment, and, while it's lower portion is rather scant, it Is not too much so for comfort. On the other hand, the extra fullness above the high waist line may be side tucked into a band of muslin embroidery matching the finish of the rounded neck and the half long bell sleeves, and the garment will look quite as trim as an empire negligee. The same model made without sleeves may be used for hot weather nightdress or for a combination corset cover and Detticoat

THE NEUTRALITY LAWS SCOPE.

The seizure of fifty rifles in Doug las yesterday by the government which are held pending an investiga- ..on as to whether they are or are not contraband property under tho zeutrality laws of the United States mas raised the question as to jus. Fhat constitutes violation of the .eutrality law of this country
 t would be a violation of this law lor anyone, whether they were deal. CTS in hardware and guns or not, 1o sell arms or ammunition to any. one who desired the war material .or making war on a nation which . friendly with the United States, provided it could be shown that the seller had good reason for suspect ing that the guns and ammunition zere intended for that purpose.
 The fact that a dealer purchased arms will not constitute a violation of the neutrality law, but if a dealer should sell arms or ammunition to anyone known by the dealer to be intending to use them against the government of Mexico or to deliver ,hem to others for that purpose would be guilty of a violation of the governments neutrality law.

SOUTHWESTERN RAILROAD
 WORK.
(El Paso Herald. )

Tucson is showing the real spirit of progress in the manner in which it is coming to taw with the money
 so pay for a right-of-way for the El
 Paso & Southwestern railroad to that Icity Tucson wanrs to be connected with Fl Paso, and Fl Paso can't
 blame her. The Fl Paso x South western road is road of progress and Tucson cannot be blamed for desiring to be connected with Fl Paso by this road Tucson has one railroad connection with El Paso, but no town really grows until it gets
 more than one railroad system con meeting it with some large conner cal center, regardless of what the one system may do for it.
 The Southwestern, as a pioneer. has done great things for great sec ton of country around Fl Paso. and | its work is not yet ended. Tucson lis to be the next terminus. and then lit is to be "on to Phoenix" The Southwestern is to penetrate the Salt
 river valley, just in the infancy of fits development, and bring the prod ucts of the farms and vineyards and
 the orchards into the mining camps
 and desert towns not so fortunately favored with water, soil and climate as the capital city of Arizona. Fl Paso wants to see the South
 western built on to the Pacific coast. This may come. The officials of the road deny any present intention of building such a line, but the ulti-
 mate necessity for such a line is ap- parent. Whether that outlet will be Co Port Lobos or some other point on the Mexican coast, as some ap- pear to think, or to San Diego or
 some port of the California coast, it
 matters but little, but such an out let for this road will be of great Importance not only to the SoutE west, but even to that vast inlana lempire, the Middle West, when this Fl .Paso railroad builds to a con Inection with the blue waters of the placid Pacific. for it will mean fur ither competition in freight haul ing and this is the great need of ths farmer. the merchant, the artisaT. land everybody.
 Tucson deserves credit for her en Encouragement to the Southwestern It the Southwestern deserves applause for what 1t has done, is doing and will do. It Is truly a young giant helping to develop remarkable country and It's works is great one.

WAS TT HEARST, OR THE RAINY

The Hearst newspapers Of Chi cago are. of course. claimiag soie eredil for the victory of Carter Har- ri7on. Hearst did it. He went 10 Chicago from New York for the solo purpose Of taking charge personally or Hauison's campaign. Just look at the result: Could anything be plainer in the whole realm of cause and elect

 Somehow, this raises a doubt over the claim of political omnipotence in behalf of Hearst He says he did It, and his own newspaper de cIares the rain did it. The latter statement is more in harmony with inc general opinion, and it is also a confession that on clcudless day Harrison would have been de- feated-iR spite of Hears;
