Evidence accumulates that the

not the birth Of a party but merely the
expression of protest cunningly per-
verted to serve the purposes Of per

1t Is true that there was no heated
contest. However, the Progressives

 No License.

Charged with practicing medicine without license, a negro giving the name of l.. Simon was brought to this city yesterday by Chief Deputy Dep- uty State Humane Officer John A. Rankin, who arrested him at Althei- mer yesterday morning.

Rankin questioned him he stated that he was doctor, but when he was asked to show his piploma or his license, he was unable to do so. He gave several names, telling iMr. Rankin, who is also a deputy constable of Plum Ba- you township, that his name was Cox and that he lived at Longyiew, Texas.

 WITH ORDINANCE
WATER COMPANY WILL NOT RE. DTCE ITS PRESENT RATES
 ON JULY 1SAYS OFFICIAL
Courts To Be Appealed To-Company Says at Is Not Making Reason
 able Profit.

The Pine Bluff Company will not comply with the ordinance adopted by the city council last Monday night, lowering the water rates to consumers in this city and giving them the privilege of selecting be- tween the meter rate and the flat rate when it becomes effective on July 1.
 This emphatic statement was made by prominent official of the com pany yesterday, when asked what ac- tion the company would take in re- gard to the new ordinance governing their schedule of rates. 1t was stat cd that the company could not afford to make the reductions outlined in the ordinance; that it was not making reasonable profit on it's present in- vestments and that their earnings were not sufficient to pay the inter est on it's bonds.
 The company will take the usual steps in court to test the constitu- tionality of the new law. It is most likely that an injunction will be ask cd against the enforcement of the or dinance and that the case twill he aired locally and then, if necessary, taken to a higher court for settle ment.
