months of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1910. It is therefore evident that the trend of railway net revenue has been downward for the past two years.
 .'The summary for April, 1912, shows that the net operating revenue, was less than for April, 1911, by $6,- 026,440, equivalent per mile of line to $55, or IA per cent. This net oper- ating revenue, which, in tle aggregate amounted to $56,362, ,945, averag5 $s.57 for each mile Of line for each day in April, less by $1.11 that for each day of April of last year. This is the gross income per mile of line per day before anything has been taken out for taxes, rentals, interest on bonds, appropra- tions for betterments or dividends. Taxes for April this year amounted to $i4 per mile of line, an increase of 9.4 per cent

 gates.

Little Rock, July 9--While the at tendance at the Arkansas Advance ment Association today was not so large as it's promoters had hoped, it Was none the less enthusiastic for anything that would tend to advance the material interests of the state There were number of important addr esses during the first day, and the meeting closed today with the adoption of platform of principles and the election of officers.
 One of the closing subjects of dis cussion was Local Option vs. Pro- hibition,'' ex-Gov. Dan w. Jones speaking in behalf of local option. Representatives of the Anti-Saloon League were denied an opportunity to reply, and this refusal caused a spec ial meeting of the Ministerial Ali ance, at which resolutions were adopted condemning the ''lack of fair- ness' on the part of the Association. They declare that this refusal "s against the American principle of a square deal and commits the Arkan- sas Advancement Association as a body so local option.'
 The resolutions which have caused a great deal of comment conclude with the following:
 "That we affirm that there is no connection betweep the advancement of Arkansas and the l'quof traffic and we deny that the licensed saloon advances the agricultural mineral, educational or commercial Interests of the State of Arkansas (save those lines of business directly CT indirect ly involved in the liquor traffic.o
 'sThat the execution of the program as publ shed will produce the impress sion upon thousands of people in this state that the Arkansas Advance men,s Association is allied with the liuuor forces and that under the g1ise of this eupaonious name the saloon K and brewery interests ,ase, seeking eekllnIgs -to tighten their grip. 94a a-.. s,.r.....
 .That since there is much else on cn the published program worthy 'df public attention and which we are interested in, and can commend, we regret that it is jeopardized by this intrusion of the liquor interests te which the majority of the people oi Arkansas are unalterably oppose and which they will smlte death blow when they have the oppor- tunity."

 The decrease per mile of line per month was as great in amount as $53, and as great in ratio as 15 per cent, says the report. "The greatest in crease for any one of the four months showing increases was $31, or Al per cent. This was in February, 1911. The highest average net operating revenue per mile of line for any one month of tnis period was $4O9. the lowest $2Os.

There is more Catarrh in this sec tion of the country than all other dl- seases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be ln- curable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incur able. Science has proven Catarh to be constitutional disease and there fora requires constitutional treat- ment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manu- factured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, To- ledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken in- ternally in doses from two drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dol lars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials.

ANTI-FREt BRIDGE
 PEOPLE MEET TODAY
PROTECTIVE ASSO. CAPTION TO MEET AT THE
 COURT HOUSE.
Negro Property Owners Will Meet in the Masonic Temple at Same
 Time for Same Purpose.

Despite the fact that the Supreme couit of the state declared that their injunction against the Jefferson County Free Bridge Commissioners was null and void, the anti-bridge men are yet determined to fight and four meetings will be held today, two this morning and two this evening, the separate meetings being for whites and negroes who are opposed bers of the Taxpayers Protective As sociation will meet at the court house at 10:30 o'clock this morning and at the same hour the negro taxpayers who are opposed to the free bridge proposition will gather at the Masonic Temple. The night meetings will be held at 7:3O o'clock for those who cannot attend the morning sessions.
 Advocates of the Free Bridge are at loss to know what steps the an- tis can take that will be of value in their fight, as the Bridge Commis- sioneIs have for some time published a statement to the effect that they l ad majority of signers to a peti- t;on favoring the construction of the bridge, both in number, acreage and assessed value.
 Contrary to this published state ment the anti-bridge people declare that the majority is on their side and in call for the meeting to be held this morning urge the members to stand firm and refuse to sign the commissions petition, evidently fear ing that many consider the Supreme Courts decision as final victory for the commission, and, as in all such cases, prepare to fall into the band wagon by affiXing their signatures to the petition.
 It is expected that quite number will attend the ameetlngs and render what assistance they can in preparing for another siege against the commits sion. T. J. Collier, president of the League, has been in the city several times since the injunction against the commissioners was swept away, mar shalling his forces for another as- Sault. It is said two men are now employed by Mr. Collier at Altheimer, going over copies of the Jefferson county tax books in hopes of finding where the agents of the commission have overlooked a number of names sufficient to give the antis the major ity they desire.
 The call for the meeting of negro property owners state that "ohaer business of a political nature will be discussed. Just how politics may be brought into the question is not clear ly understood unless the negroes in- tend to use their signatures against the free bridge as lever to pull for votes against the celebrated Grand father Clause which will be voted upon at the next election, and to which they are bitterly opposed.
