Painted the Wrong Fence.


There is a woman in Sum nit
county who is causing the brewers
of Akron more trouble than did
ever Carrie Nation. This woman's
name is Minnie Ellet. She has
been fighting the saloons for years.
She does it out in the open and
everybody knows what to expect.
An Akron brewer sent a man out
into the country with a bucket of
paint to paint signs on fences OF
the farmers telling of the excel
lence of the Akron brand of beer.
The unsophisticated painter got
off the interurban car near Min
ME Ellet's home, saw the fence
around the Ellet property across
the road, and, thinking it was a
good place to begin, started to
paint. He painted in glowing six
inch letters that stood out firm
and black telling of the glorious
beer this company makes and the
superb health that would result
from drinking it.
When Minnie Ellet saw tina
sign, it is not difficult to guess
that she was mad clear through
She decided to do some painting
herself, and getting a bucket o,
red paint and a brush she wen
at it. She painted out all the let
tering except the name of the
brewers, and then she painted thu
sentences like "'Stop and l%isten,'
"The smoke Of their torment shall
ascend forever" "Strong drink il
raging" "Ohio dry in 1912" ant
others. The Akron papers de.
voted several columns with illus
trations telling about the var be
tween the brewer and the woman
and all agree that Minnie Ellet ha
the best of the fght.-American Is

SH|P SUBSIDY
 BILL COMING Opposition to it Will Devel- op in the Senate at Com
 ing Session. HAS ANOTHER PLAN Senator Cummins Would Build Freigllters For South Ameri-
 can Trade.
HAS ANOTHER PLAN
International News Special

Washington, D. C., Dec. 31.-When Congress is reconvened next week one of the most important pieces Of leg islation that is to be Immediately started will be the Ship Subsidy Bill. It is to have the right of way on the Senate side of the capital, and under Ian agreement made last spring 1t is expected a vote will be taken before the end of January.
 There is going to be hard fight over the measure notwithstanding that President Taft IS with it and that a South American mall subsidy is one of the things that he has upon his leg islat;ve program. Still the leaders in the Senate are hopeful of passing t and leaving it to the House to defeat 1t If the House dares to do SO.
 There is to be a new kind of op- position on the Senate side however opposition that " Il originate with Senator Albert B. Cummins, of Iowa. n the shape of substitute bill em- bodying his own ideas.
 Senator Cummins' new idea is thfs, that the government instead of sub sidizing private vessels, should build it's own line of freighters and general ships, practically for the South .Ameri- can trade. He would have the gov ernment begin general career of government ownership of owning freighters to South American ports with general ownership of railroads and telegraph companies to come in. In order to build this line of govern ment freighters for South American ports Senator Cummins proposes to stop all increases in the Navy and de- vote the money that should otherwise go to the naval increases towards building of commercial ships.
 Therefore he would build no more battleships, but would take the $12,- 100000 yearly and build freighters. With it freighters that could be turn ed into. callers in tune of war and which would be merchantmen in time of peace, doing a general freight and passenger business and making subsidy unnecessary to the restoration of the American flag to the high seas

Every other call to Information will stop and the Department will be noti- fled as well as the water company. The "phone girls have bundled for ty fire alarms this month, MT. h. gram says, and the complaint made yesterday of the Friday night delay, was the only one of it's kind for many months.

 R. J. Williams of Magnolia, Robert l.. Rogers of Little Rock and w. P. Strait of Morrilton opposed the salary proposition on the ground that if that were assured the prosecutor in many cases might yield to the solictude of the friends of the defendant and dis miss the case or let him down lightly, since he would get as much as if he prosecuted the case.

 New Ofleans.
HIS NECK WAS BROKEN
In Attempting His lrnous Right Cir cle Swing He Fell From
 Machine.

New Orleans, Las Dec 3f.-John B. Moisant, the Chicago aviator, was fla tally injured at 10:S o'clock this morning at Harahan station, three and one-half miles above New Or leans, when his machine turned head downward at all altitude of 100 feet, ethrow:ng Moisant out. He landed on his head.
 He died soon after
 Moisant was young man Of Chica- go, who had come into great promin- ence during recent! months by spec tacular flights in America and abroad He was one of the stars in the recent meet at Memphis, and was one of those who had planned to attend the pro- posed meet in Little Rock two weeks ago.
 Where Accident Occurred.
 Harahan is station on the Illinois Central railroad, several miles west of New Orleans. On one side lies the Mississippi river and one the other a small strip of swamp land separates it from Lake Pontchartrain. The aiI currents in that section are peculiar on account of the topography oi the land, gales frequently sweeping rest ward along the lake and meeting heavy rush of wind along the river causing whirls in the air, which have been noted as dangerous by s2 }eeal aviators flying in that section. Tie station is accessible to New Orleans only by the road which runs along the top of theievee and the railroad.
 Moisant, minis 50-horse power Bler iot monoplans. with spec;a 45-gal. lon gasolinetank aboard, left the avia7 tion field in his city at 1O:05 ocIocl5 and flew to Harahan, where special grounds had been laid out over whic1 the aviator WIS to try for the Mche:i cup.

Differ on Salary Question.

TlOWGSeI, IlllS uiSCuoSlOH pIeClp tated a sharp difference of opinion among the attorneys as to whether Or not the prosecuting attorneys should be placed on the salary basis It was agreed that under the construction oi the law by the Supreme Court this provision does not now apply to prose- cutting attorneys. They may collect all they can from fees in the course of their official duties and are not required to cover any back into the treasury above the 5000 mark should their constitutional proportion of the fees collected exceed that amount.
 But the stand was emphatically ta- kei by several of the prosecuting at tofneys tAat this office, like all tt others, should be on salary basis.
 Nixon Fayors Salary System.
 T. Havis Nixon of Pine Bluff argued strongly in favor of placing the prose- cutors on a salary basis. He declared that it would result in their giving more time to the general welfare and less to petty affairs.
 They would be more inclined to let the petty cases, such as crap shoot ing, go, and go after the fellows who are committing offenses against the laws in high places," he said. Tt would stop much of the everlasting nagging of the petty evildoer and give the prosecutor a chance to go after general public instead of forcing them so much of their time, as is now the case, to turn this way and that for convictions to pile up their fiees.'
 MT. Nixon expressed the opinion that the prosecuting attorney would not prove any the less a vigilapt official merely because his revenues were se- cured through salary, and declared , that desire to render the pubic larger and better service would naturally re- suit under the salary system. In many cases, it was pointed out, it may re- quire the prosecuting attorney two ,ol three weeks to handle case such as q felony, from which he may receive only few dollars in fees, whereas the indictment and conviction of z half dozen negroes on petty charge: will bring in a great deal more rev. enue. The fee system, he urged should by all means be abolished
 Gus Seawell of Marshall took tht same view and also urged that prosecuting attorney in hill countr.
