Special to the Log Cabin Democrat
Little Rock, April 28.-The SUI
preme court today affirmed the decis-
ion of the Pulaski circuit court in the
case of Caldwell & Drake VS.. George
w. Donaghey and the members of the
state capitol commission.
The suit was for $250,000, the for
mer capitol contractors alleging that

the commission forcibly taking possess

out large portion of the work dona
by Caldwell & Drake
The suit was brought against the
members of the commission PERSONAL

was in effect a suit against the state

WILL ASSESS PUBLIC
UTILITY CORPORATIONS
BLANKS BEING PREPARED BY
TAX COMMISSION FOR
THIS PURPOSE.

Little Rock, April 25.-The Arkan-
sas Tax Commission is preparing a
blank to be sent out to the public util-
ity corporations, upon which to enter
their assessable property, which will
give the corporation heads a thrill the
moment they lay hands upon it.
The last legislature made some
changes in the laws governing the
payment of taxes by the corporations,
especially those of public utilities.
The new law requires the companies
to file everything of value, or which
has an earning power, and tangible
and intangible assets are included.
The corporation must pay upon its
franchise granted to operate in a city,
as that is an earning power, and the
value of it is needed to reach the total
value of the concern, and the state
tax will be collected upon the full
amount.
At the end of the blank will be a
line to be filled by notary public
showing the corporation head is ex-
pected to hand the list back with a
sworn statement as to the truth OF
the values given.

Nearly everybody is obliged more CT
less to take a laxative. There are of
course few exceptions. A great many
people also need occasionally to take a
tonic Probably few households exist
that do not make use of tonics and
5laxatives
The remedy Peruna Is a laxative
tonic 1t not only operates as gentle
laxative, but also as a tonic.
The benefit derived from such
remedy is a great deal more in the
prevention of disease than in the cure.
After a person has really become sick,
either with an acute or chronic all
ment, the rule should be to employ
physician, or some one who can give
the case his personal attention. But
long before this happens the person
will complain of this or that symptom,
which is not severe enough to interfere
with his regular activities. If at this
place before the disease has really
gained a foothold in the system. per-
son was to take dose or two OF

will be opened and the contract let to

This means that we are assured of
having the new $4,000 courthouse
erected during the coming summer and
that work will be started on it by the
first of June which will mean that it
will be completed and ready for occu-
pancy by fall.
Judge NJ. f. Vinson had promised
the people of Cleburne county that if
they wished he would erect new
building before going out of office, and
since such large majority of our
people have expressed it as their de-
sire, he will now proceed to have the
work done Every citizen of the coun-
ty knows that it will come none too
soon and the present old building is a
disgrace to the county.

DANGER FROM GRIPPE
Lies in That Cough and Weak
WORKOUT Condition.

Grippe, pleurisy, pneumonia, these
are greatly to be feared at this time
of the year.
To prevent grippe from being fol-
lowed by either pleurisy or pneumo-
mia, it is important to drive the last
traces of it out of the system quickly.
Our advice is to take Vinol, our
delicious cod liver and iron prepare
ton without oil, and get your strength
and vitality back quickly.
Mrs A. A. Grabill, of Strasburg,
Va says: Grippe left me weak, run
down and with a severe cough, from
which | suffered four years. | tried
different remedies, but nothing seemed
to do me any good until l took Vinol,
from which | received great benefit.
My cough is almost entirely gone, and
/ am strong and we'll again and | am
glad to recommend Vinol to others
who suffer as l did"
Try Vinol with the certainty
that if it does not benefit
you we will give back your money

NOW SEEKS TO SAVE
HER FATHERS LIFE
1IRI. WHO CAUSED PREACHERS
CONVICTION SAYS SHE
SWORE FALSELY.

Fort Smith, April 2S.-Declaring
that she had testified falsely against
her father, Marion Caps, Methodist
minister, Bertha Capps, aged Is years,
has made confession, it was learned
yesterday which counsel for Capps
lUpes will save the minister's life.
Capps was convicted in February by
ury in the circuit court here and was
entenced to hang for first degree
murder He was charged with burn
ng to death his two children, Rosie,
aged 8, and Priscilla, aged 3. These
met death December IS, last, when the
Capps home at White Bluff, near b.
nanza, was destroyed by fire. A third
third child, Max, aged 10, later died
from burns he sustained in the fire.
Bertha Capps and her 14-year-old
brother, Ellis, survived, with horri-
BILE injuries, while sixth child was
rescued by Capps.
It was the testimony of the girl,
substantiated in some instances by the
testimony of Ellis, that convicted their
father. The girl swore she had been
tied with her two sisters to an oil
soaked bed. The boy said he found
himself tied to another bed. She also
swore that the only door leading out
of her room was locked. In her con-
fession she is reported to have admit
ted that she swore falsely against
her father, and she now denies that
she was tied in bed or that her bed
was soaked with oil. She also admits
that the door was not locked.
She has made statements to this eff
feet, she says, while she was over
excited and after she had concluded
she had erred she says she decided to
tell the truth. She was prevented
from so doing, she insists, by friends,
who told her the change of testimony
would bring her into difficulty. An
other denial the girl has made is that
she saw her father leave her room and
lock the door while the blaze was in
its infancy. The girl also has admit
ted that she and Marion Booth, son
of neighbor, to whose home she fled

SALINE TO Build
MODEL HIGHWAY

Little Rock, April 20 Saline coun-
ty is to have a stretch Of road miles
in length which will cost about $780,
900, and is expected to be one of the
models for Arkansas The road was
provided for by an act of the last leg
islature, and as it is to be an improve
ment of an old road, this amount
should make it truly model. G. E.
Greenfield and S. A. Moore of Saline
county, two of the road commission
ers, have requested the State High
way Department to supervise the
work, and this will probably be done
when the department is organized and

A TONIC LAXATIVE
Pe-ru-na, an Up-to-Date Family Medicine Tha:
Should Be In Every Home

good tonic laxative the great majority
of cases of sickness would be pre-
vented.
Peruna is a remedy that should be
kept in the house. Its virtue as a
preventive to disease is the thing
wish chiefly to emphasize.
A slight condition OF constipation
may lead to serious slugSishness OK
the bowels, biliousness, re-absorption
of poisonous material and finally
sickness. Or apathy of the stomach
in which the food is not relished may
gradually lead to atomic dyspepsia or
to the acquisition of some acute dis
ease. For either one of these cdndi-
tions a few doses of the tonic laxative
Peruna would set matters right. This
Is why the remedy should always be
kept handy by.
When once the value of Peruna as a
household remedy is understood no
home would be without it. Cathartics
pills and powders would be discarded
Irritating tonics would be no longer
taken. Alcoholic drinks would have no
place. With a few doses of Peruna
vigorous appetite is produced and II
there be any sluggishness of the
bowels their function is gradually re-
stored
Most laxatives are weakening in
their effect. A tonic laxative guards
against this weakening effect Until
right living has become so thoroughly
established that all medicines are SUI
perfluous, Peruna will be needed. 1t Is
exactly the remedy that meets numer-
GUS necessities of the household. Sold
at all drug stores.

eral court, for 100000. This is the
largest verdict ever rendered in an

her visiting the rooms of the former
legislator and mayor of Argenta.
Attorneys for the plaintiff took the
story of Every Woman as their argu-
ment and followed it straight through.
