RIFLE RANGE Is
SOLD FOR TAXES
STATE SEEKS TO RECOVER
TITLE TO 800 ACRES NEAR BEE
BE Donated TO STATE
IS AFFECTED.

Little Rock April 24.-The Arkan
sas National Guard is in a pretty ket-
tie of fish over the sale of the rifle
range in White county, near Beebe,
for taxes. Attorney General W. L.
Moose has been appealed to in an eff
fort to have the cloud removed from
the title
Several years ago the citizens of
Beebe, realizing the merchants of the
town would prosper if the companies
of the Arkansas National Guard each
year went into camp nearby for tar
get practice, made proposition to the
state to donate a permanent site If 1t
would be accepted. Gen. B. w. Green
conducted the negotiations in behalf
of the state and in the end deed con-
veying about 800 acres of land was
delivered to him. This deed was made
to B. w. Green, Adjutant General,
for the use of the Arkansas National
Guard.
Since receiving the deed Gen. Green
has paid no further attention to the
land. considering it state property,
and the idea of taxes being assessed
against the property of the state new
er entered his mind. The tax assess
or. seeing the property in the name OF
an Individual assessed it and placed
it on the books. The taxes not being
paid. the land was sold in the usual
manner.
After the matter was placed in the
hands of the attorney general he soon
found that about three-fourths of the
land is Just as if no sale for taxes had
been made, because the description is
so indefinite the land could not be 10
Gated under it.
It is hardly probable that those who
are holding tax deeds to the balance
will be able to perfect their TITLE
merely receiving their money back II
they can get a bill through the Arkan-
sas legislature for that purpose. ms
is hard to do though, the MAYOR StaVe
Company claim for improperly paid
taxes amounting to S136, being an in
stance. This claim has been several
times before the legislature, always to
be voted down. 1t is estimated the
claim has cost the state $4,000 IN
time wasted.
Attorney General Moose is now go
ing deep into the law in his effort to
save the rife range, but should ne
find the people have claim of any
sort on the land, it is probable the cit
liens of Beebe will refund their mon
CIV rather than see the range aban-
doned

NATURAL GAS is STRUCK.

DeVall's Bluff, April 24.-The Ar
kansas Grand Prairie Oil and Gas
Company, drilling for oil near this
place, decided that instead of abandon
ing the we'll after striking salt water
and gas, that they would drill on and
see if there was anything of paying
nature deeper down. After drilling
some so or rs feet below the cap rock,
they found that the gas pressure is
much stronger and that the water
that is now flowing from the we'll has
a temperature of 96 degrees. The log
of this well shows the same formations
as in the Caddo, Louisiana, field,
where they found oil and gas at a
depth of about $500 feet.

MISCELLANEOUS MAIL.

Little Rock, April 24.-The mail of
the governor is an interesting propo-
sition, as everything imaginable is re-
quested of the chief executive, espe-
cially from the ignorant citizens. 1t
has been only few days since boy
in Oklahoma wrote and asked Acting
Governor Futrell to write an essay for
him, and this was followed by others
of similar nature. The climax of all
the letters, is one received Wednesday
from a negress in Memphis, who ap-
peals to the governor as the Lord of
Arkansas" The husband of the old
negress is in the penitentiary for SELL
ing mortgaged cotton, and all through
the letter, the language is in the form
of a praper to the Lord of Arkan-
sas."
