MOTORISTS SLOW TO
PAY LICENSE FEES

A letter from Attorney General
John Dawson to Sheriff Herman
Hassler calls attention to the fact
that while there were S1S motor
cars licensed in this county last
wear, only $50 cars have tags this
year, and this in spite of the TACT
that this is a big year for automo-
biles. Last year 113 motorcycles
were licensed. This year only W
have the blue tags.
Carelessness on the part of own
ers of cars and motorcycles Will be
very likely to lead to arrests when
the officers find cars which have not
a license tage for the current year

LIGHTNING BURNS
40 TONS OF ALFALFA

Forty tons of alfalfa hay were set
on fire and burned by a stroke OF
lightning Thursday on the w. F.
Neeley farm near Enterprise.
The lightning struck shortly after
dinner. Neighbors who live across
the road from the Medley farm saw
the fire start, but the stack was far
from water and probably nothing
could have been done to save the
stack had the Neeleys been near
with forks.
Mr.. Neeley had just been offered
$40 a ton for the hay.

 Early Morning Blaze.

DON'T OVERLOOK THIS.
A Careful Persual Will Prove It's Value to Every Pine Bluff
 Reader.

The average man is a doubter, and there is little wonder that this is so, Misrepresentations make people skep- tics. Nowadays the public ask for better evidence than the testimony of strangers. Here is proof which should convince every Pine Bluff reader.
 Mrs. James Wilcox, 14O6 E. Sixth street. Pine Bluff, Ark, says: q suffered from kidney trouble the greater part of my life. I alwatys felt worn out and tired. Sometimes It was hard for me to get a good nights rest. Mys kidneys acted too freely and my limbs were swollen. I suffered from rheumatism pains and l had dizzy spells and blurring of my sight. l used a great deal of medi- cine and finally heard about Deans Kidney Pills. l have taken them off and on and I can truthfully say that they have always relieved the aches and pains. Others of my fami- ly have also used Doan's Kidney Pills. and have been helped.

N. Y. SEM|-MONTHLY
 PAY LAW IS VALID
United States Supreme Court Upholds Statute.
 Roads Must Pay Cash.

Washington, May 25.-The New York statute requiring corporations
 to pay employees semi-monthly in
 cash was today upheld as constitu- tional by the supreme court. The litigation was to test the con- stitutionality of law passed by the New York legislature providing that railroad employees must be paid twice month and in cash. The usual method of payment was ill check once a month, and there was good deal of complaint from the railroad towns to the effect that railroad en- ployes were always behind" in their pay nnd hence in debt. The law was passed for their benefit supposedly.
 The Erie ralrorad brought suit in equity in the supreme court of New York against the state commits sioner of labor to prevent him from administering the law and from in- s,ituting actions to recover the pen alties imposed for violations. The law was declared to be unconstitu- tional because it was alleged it de- prived the railroad companies of lib- erty and property without due process of law.
 The validity of the law was defend- ed on two propositions: That it con- stituted the proper exercise of the re- serve power of the state to amend corporate charters and it was a legiti- mate exercise of the police power of the state.
 The court of appeals of New York to which the case was carried held that the contention of the railroads that the law was in conflict with in terstate commerce, was not tenable as it did not affect interstate com merce directly.
