Newport Prosecutor Shows
428 Indictments for Homi-
eide in Arkansas.

sHeber Springs, June 27.-Last night
marked the close Of the fifth annual
meeting Of the n. e. Arkansas Bar as
ISOLATION of the Eighth chancery cir
cult, which was in session at Heber
Springs two days, beginning Thursday
mornin gat 10 O'Clock with a big rally
OF citizens and visiting attorneys, who
met in the famous old frame court
house standing within the shadow of
the new and costly temple of justice
now under course of construction, and
opened the meeting with all elaborate
program beginning with an address of
welcome by DR.. w. J. Hornbarger of
this city. This was responded to by
d. H. Coleman of Batesville. Follow
ing came an eloquent address by the
president of the association, Judge J.
B. Baker of Melbourne, who enthused
the members with determination to
make tn emeeting the best and most
beneficial held since the organization
of the association.
Freaks Of Legislation.
One of the most interesting features
Of the session was the speech of Love
Grant of Newport, representative of
Jackson county, his subject being,
FREAKS of Legislation and Legislative
Freaks. 1t was a compilation of facts
pertaining to the Introduction OF
freakish legislatures of the various
states, and of the waste of time and
unnecessary expense to the taxpayers
Of the commonwealth resultant of
the introduction of these ridiculous
bills.
Claude NJ Erwin of Newport, prose-
cutting attorney of the third judicial
circuit, followed Grant and delivered
one Of the most striking speeches of
the entire session. He dealt on the
imperative need OF changes in criminal
procedure in Arkansas. He said that
the record of crime in the United
States had gone on increasing in
blackness until it had made us con-
spicuously alone among the civilized
nations of the world, and that Arkan-
sas had not fallen behind the other
states in this march of crime.
Some Surprising Figures.
Mr.. Erwin said that during the first
two years he was prosecuting attor
ney of his district, 1911 and 1912, that
there were 42S indictments and trials
of persons for some degree of homi-
eide in the state of Arkansas as
against twenty-four indictments and
trials on the same charge in London,
city with four times the population
of Arkansas. Out of these 42S cases,
there were only 274 convictions, and
only 38 of this number received the
sentence for the maximum punish
cuted. He asserted forcefully that the
main trouble is due to the defects Of
the criminal procedure, which has
not been amended or improved upon
to any material degree since the
adoption of the constitution in 1874.
In other words, he left the impress
sion that as far as the present crimi-
nal procedure is concerned, the peo
pie are being led by "a withered and
dead hand"

The police admit themselves help

Has Been Assessed at From
$4,000 to $47, 100000, Keep
ing Courts Busy.

Little Rock. June 27.-The litigation
over the assessment Of the American
Bauxite company's properties in Sa-
line county had another inning this
week in the circuit court of Saline
county 1t has been on for five years,
and the assessment has been gradu-
ally increasing since 1903.
In 1909, the property, consisting of
$4,000 acres of land, of which about
1000 is underlaid with bauxite depos-
it's, was assessed at $4,000. This al
so included the plant. That year the
state tax commission took up the mat
ter with the board of equalization
and it was raised to $250,O00. In 1911
it was raised to 100000 IN 1912 an
assessment of $3,000000 was made,
but this was appealed to the circuit
court which reduced it to $340,O00. In
1918 Assessor Shoemake broke all as
sessment records of the state by as
sessing the property at SAT 100000.
This was reduced by the board of
equalization to $2,400000, which was
sustained by the county court. An
appeal was taken to the circuit court,
which last Thursday handed down a
decision at Benton fixing the assess
ment at $4,000, including the plant
and the lands Facts were brought
out. however, which the state believes
it will be able to use in boosting the
assessment to an even million. BY
agreement last spring, the company
had paid taxes on an assessment OF
$576,0O0.
This company controls and operates
one of the largest deposits in the
world of bauxite, the base Of alumni
