 DIVISION AT FAYETTEVILLE

Fort Smith, August 24-It's all a pipe dream. A report, starting from Fayetteville, and finding it's echo in the press in this vicinity, has it all doped out that the Frisco is maturing plans to remove it's division from Fort Smith, shops. offices and all, leaving only the round house here for freight division. The wise ones" point for proof to the fact that a surveying party has been the past week or so. engaged i'll making yard and shop ground surveys at the University town; that town having gotten "all het up over the boom which is coming They dope it out that the Frisco is to locate division offices at both Fayetteville and Tali- hina
 Pipe dream, say the division off cials in this city Tell the wise acres to wake up.' How did the story start, anyhow? The fact is that the Frisco has not been doing any survyeing anywhere in this DOT tion of their system, and haven't the slightest idea of oyerturning and re organizing their divisions. But there has been and is being done survey ing all along the Frisco; and that is where the story comes in.
 The general public has been adyis- ed from time to time that the gov ernment of these great United States many months ago undertook the work of securing d physical valuation Of the railroad properties of the coun- ty. Some Fort Smith men have this year been drafted by the govern ment for employment on that work. The surveying which is being done along the Frisco. is under the gov ernment auspices. for the purposes of securing the physical valuation of tha road Parties on that work have just completed the Fayetteville sur veying. Some weeks ago, the same crew slipped quietly into Fort Smith; (came and went unheralded;D but when they left, they had a complete survey of the Frisco yards, shops. main line, side tracks and conner cial switches. with reports including estimates of property. It is a part of the valuation data upon which gov ernment dealings with the railroad is to be based

FOR BOND AMENDMENT NO. IA.

A. W. Parke, representing Chas. F. Taylor, Mayor of Little Rock, and Chairman of the Greater Arkansas Association, was in Springdale We'd nesday morning, mixing with the business men, and members of the city council asking them for donations toward the campaign now being wag- ed throughout the rural sections in favor of the amendment. There IS scarcely a town in the state but what will favor the amendment. and there is no question but what 1t will car ny in Springdale, but the great dan ger looms in the fact that the farm CTS and others will not be directly interested in the Amendment may not vote either way. When a person votes for candidate for governor and fail to vote either for or against the amendment. his vote is counted the same as if he had voted against
 it, as the amendment must have a majority of all the votes cast. The donations asked for were to help pay the expense Of sending litera- ture to the farmers throughout Wash ington county. giving them an idea of the amendment, and urging them to vote for the same.

APPRECIATION OF A NEWSPAPER

The newspaper man is blamed for a whole lot of things he can't help, such as using partiality in mentioning visitors, giving news about some folks and leaving others out, etc. He simply prints all the news he can get. Some people inform him about such things and others do not An editor should not be expected to know the names and residences of all your aunts and cousins, even if he should see them get off and on the train. Tell us about it.. It's news that makes the newspaper. and ev- cry man, woman and child can be as- sociate editor if they only will. New CT apologiez when you give this bit of news to an editor, for if there lives one so dead that he has lost his appreciation of such favors he is dead, indeed, to every virtue that imparts value to paper.-Ex.

GOING TO BUILD THAT
 COURT HOUSE ANYWA'

In the Bentonvile Daily Sun of Tuesday. August IS, appears a notice to contractors signed by NJ. B. Cro- well, Commissioner. It is an adyer- tisement for bids to erect the propos- ed new court house 1t says that bids will be received by the com missioner up to noon of the 26th of August Various other provisions and stipulations are set forth in the notice, but what we want to call at tention to is the date of this notice.
 It is dated August IT. That was Monday of this week and it appears in print the following day. Tuesday. The order for the court house was made by the judge at about Il o'clock on Monday morning. the l7th. The appeal was taken at once and be- fore any other orders were made. The appeal was perfected The re- quired bond was given and the SUI ipersedeas was issued at once. EYi- dently this advertisement for bids was done after the appeal was taken and the supersedeas issued. How l can such things be done? Smith pays not the least attention to the laws or the orders of the courts higher than his
 And this k not all. Since the ap= peal was taken yet another order ap- pears of record in which the court approves of the plans and specified tions furnished by the commissioner. And from this we are to gather that the plans and specifications have been presented by the commissioners. And, strange 10 say, these plans and specifications are furnished by w L. Steven. {. New Orleans. of whom we have heard before.
 There is one thing that we regret very much and that is that this pa per did not have the chance to re- fuse to publish the notice to con- tractors. It might be called case of sour grapes. but we would have refused it with q great deal of pleas ure.-Benotnville Democrat
