They don't hear anything about the big drainage propos tions which are being carried on all through this section and which are having the effect of moving much of this former menace to life ana heal,h. The very fact that the industr ea of Pine Bluff are thriving is good enough advertis- ing in that direction and attracts more, the only argumens needed is to show that the timber or aother raw material :sr to- be. had and the. prorer failroad rate secured. But 1t 1s hard to show the farmer from the highly developed sections of the country that he can do better in an undevelopedgssssssiilon He comes down to inspect the country but doesnN find things to his king, Our system
 of taxation forces the farmer who wants land at right prices to go "a c,u. from the city and leave the i'm proved to 2, large eXtent-and this doesn't lookx we'll. And yet the Chamber of Commerce checked up 97 new fa.nil es who came into this vicinity in 1912 and so far this year

Juse here let me suggest that the system of taXat on is responsible for more civic ills than any other one thing. If city property Of he un-s improved sort was assessed at it's full vaiue or lhe price it's holder fixes o?l it he would soon improve or sell it. This would have the effect of bu Hing a compact city. It would make dhe outlying cubuIban addition unneces- sary. It would save the city vast expensa in extending it's facilities to the distant parts of the ty, it would save the public service corporations the expense of long extensions and stretches which pay no revenue what ever. In this connection 1 would city of Houston, Texas, which several years ago adopted the commission form of government. The cty pro spered and grew under this intelli- gent system, although the same old officers held the places. But its re- venue was not what it required for it's rapid growth. In the city of Houston there has lived for long
 inc man named Pastoriza, an alert business man and money maker. Early n the history of the city he bought some outlying property and after holding it for some time sold it at price which made him indepen- dent although he had done nothing whatever to improve the property or to increase it's vaule. He realized tht he was not ent tied to this profit morally and said so but went right on making money in this way and between times taking trips abroad He laughed at the people for being suckers and told them that the man who had the land ought to pay the oill, that he was a rObber and took gain which he was not entitled 10 at all Wuon the HOuSlOn cOWIilss UT CTS began to look around for man | to increase their revenue they l thought of 'Fastoriza and thought they would hand aim one never thinking 1 for minute that he would accept | But he did and they made him tax commissioner and today every piece | of land in the cty is assessed at fu' value, Improvements at 25 per cent
 md all personal taxes were donc 1 away with. The city of Houston has l plenty of money under this system
 and every one who was banning Pas 1 toriza when he announced his plan
 is now batting him on the back This k an idea for Pne Bluff: We
 want commission government and ar
 intelligent system of taxation. Under
 PaStoriza's plan Pine Bluff would bt

1.-THE HIGH ROAD

An unconventional character in THE
High Road" Mrs. Fiske's new play
by Edward Sheldon, is that Of Alan
Wilson, wealthy artist, eonnoisseur
and collector, who brings the world of
romance to an uneducated and untu-
tored child of the farm only to lose her
when she realizes that there is a great
er good than beauty, and that even an
unwilling mistake involves vast conse-
quences. The child of the farm is the
Mary Page of the play, and around
whom 1t reyolves. For once an author
has drawn a man of the world, and has
not made him entirely a cad, Although
the character appears in but two acts
of the play, it is one that is generally
remembered. Mrs. Fisko will be at the
Grand opera house on Saturday, No
vember 30.

OBITUARY.

The Polk County Itemizer Of Friday
has the following in regard to the late
Conrad b. Olsen; "Never was the
old adage, in the midst of life we are
in death, more truly exemplfied than
in tho Itemizcr cffice this week.
Wednesday morning Mr.. Conrad b. Oh
sen, foreman Of this office, showed up
for work, but was feeling so badly
that we advised him to 20 home and
TO bed. His illness came from bowel
trouble, and although he was n pretty
sick man. Il was apprehended that his
illness would shortly pass away and he
would be ready for duty again in n
day or so Thursday he became deli.
rious and this friday morning Mr.,
Olsen peacefully passed away. The loss
to the Itemizer Is one that can hardly
be estimated. Although he had been
with us only since July, Conrad had on.
learcd himself TO our whole force and
with all acquaintances he had made
among the business men and others of
our city He was a first.class work
man, genial, ambitious, his whole ef.
fort in life being to properly attend
to his duties in every respect. Blessed
with genial temperament, never get
ting excited or cross when work press.

ed or things went wrong, he will be
sadly missed.
Conrad B. Olsen was born in Mar
shalltown, Iowa, and was nearly 22
years of age. About a year ago in
Calgary, Alberta, he married Miss May
McCullagh, and their married life had
been one of unalloyed pleasure so far,
each doting on the other-true exam.
Piles of all that is best in pure and un-
selfish love- In the spriugtime Of life
the bond has been ruthlessly severed,
and the heartbroken widow will soon
return to her folks in Canada. She has
the heartfelt sympathy of everyone
who knew the happy couple. Mr. o.
sen also leaves a father and mother
and two sisters, residents of Salem,
who are heartbroken over the loss Of
an only son and brother. The remains
will be taken to Salem this afternoon
for interment.

some substitute for the social feature be
found, if such is possible. An orderly,
law abiding billiard or pool room would
furnish substitute for some Of our cit
izens and an orderly, law-abiding club
would furnish substitute for others I
believe that the "drys" could do moth
ing better than to aid in making these
places attractive and convenient as
places for men to congregate.
This must not be construed, however,
as meaning that the dry forces will for
moment consent to the substitution of
clubs for saloons in any other sense
than that mentioned above, and if any
attempt is made to open bar, or to
dispense liquor illegally from any of
the clubs, the most vigorous treatment,
at the hands Of the drys, may not only
be expected, but such action on their
part is hereby pledged.
AS to the moving picture shows, or
any other legitimate business being con-
Quoted in the city Of Salem, we have
nothing to say. Properly conducted
moving picture shows furnish a means
of amusement and education to the
people, which, on account of its cheap
ness, could not be replaced by anything
else, and until it is shown that the
class of films which are thrown on
their screens are injurious to public
morals, it would be foolish for anyone
to consider for moment q plan Of put
ting them out of business. can only
think that the rumors that such is the
case originated with the people opposed
to the dry movement in the city, and
that it was originated with the idea in
view Of creating sentiment in their
favor for the December election.
Kindly see that the above is given a
fair position in the paper, as it will tend
to correct mistaken opinion which
the people have been getting from the
interview given your reporter Thurs
day. Yours very truly,
WILLIAM II. TRINDLE.
