 If The News is not mistaken sen ator Greenhouse made a number of speeches in this county soundly crit icizing Act No. 3, before the election, and the Fayetteville Democrat edl- torially fought the measure. What about the one-third who failed to vote on the measure? Is it to be supposed that they were against the measure because they failed to vote for it? Why not say they favored it for the same reason. Act No. 5 was never designed to reflect on of ficials, nor is it a "pussy-foot measure, intended as detective agency" to report erring officials. All officials are net crooked. And, again, are we to understand that all newspapers who favored Act No. 5 are subsidized to those politicians who control the advertising patron age Senator Greenhouse enjoys the privilege of taking any stand he so desries; but it is to be expected that public servant will be guided Ito some little extent by the wishes of a majority of the people.

Rogers, Feb. GA local supply
 house is installing a pump and
 drill in the gas wells that are
 being tested at Mt. Comfort,
 station on the Kansas City and
 Memphis railway in this county.
 Indications are that there is an
 abundance of gas at that place,
 and company has been organ
 ized. If the flow comes up to
 their expectations they will pipe
 it to Rogers and other nearby
 towns for commercial purposes.
 The above was clipped from the Arkansas Gazette of Sunday, and was sent to them by a correspondent at Rogers. Mt Comfort is not in Ben ton county, and the company spoken Of is organized in Springdale; the only Rogers party being J. McFar- land who owns very small portion Of the stock. There is a very little chance Of Rogers securing a pipe line, at least not until Springdale and Fayetteville are supplied. The is known as the McGoos Oil & Gas Company, with headquar- ters in Springdale. The News is per sonauy acquainted with almost every stockhoIder, and have their word for the statement that gas will be piped to Springdale first, if there is gas. The Rogers correspondent was evidently doing a little boosting without backing.

HARRISON AND WATERWoRks

\ telegram from Secretary of State Earle W. Hodges, announcing that Amendment No. Ii, which makes pro- visions for the issuing of bonds by Arkansas cities under improvement district plans, was in full force and effect was read by Mayor Frew. The council adjourned until next Monday night, February 8.
 Immediately after the election of al alderman from the second ward, and new city recorder, steps will be taken by the council to pass an ordi- nance providing for a special elec- tlon to vote on the sewer and water works bonds. This election will nave to be 50 days from 4he date of the passing of the ordinance SO it Is likely that the people of Harris on will be given an opportunity to ex. press themselves in the matter some time in April.-Herald

ed in freedom and threatened total destruction to the entire town, need ing only the encouragement and as sistance of the breezes. In this city within the same period of time, there have been few persons who have need no treworks-persons who ought to have at heart the welfare of the town as well as the welfare of themselves.
 If the insurance companies adjust the losses of the last conflagration as well and as justly as they have other losses by recent fires, there will have been paid out for losses by fire more than $45 900 in this place within less time than six months. This sum is staggering within itself and more staggering is the sum to- tai of the actual losses. By reason of these losses and the lack of pro lection, the owners of all the other property in town have been uselessly burdened with an insurance rate that has bled thousands of dollars from the veins of local circulation robbing people Of money that could have been used improving the prop erty rather than protecting it.
 The bank building, two large stores and one fo the handsomest hotels in North Arkansas have paid the pen alty already-and the fire season is not half over. Insurance men realize this and are weekly visiting this place and constantly raising the rates for their own protection. There is no telling what rates may be asked soon and what drastic decisions these companies may make.
 The only alternative that the peo- pie of Heber Springs have is also taeir only hope and that is to de termne to secure a waterworks sys= tenn and do SO at once. The time is now. Heber Springs must be made a city of the second class, bonds must be fl0ated and Waterworks installed, followed by the installation of an adequate fire system. Automatically, the insurance rates will decrease property values will increase and progress will resume it's steady ad. varcee and Heber Springs, the city and health resort. will prosper as never befere.-Ex.

 Note the difference? Why, just a few weeks ago we paid this same man s1.5O for a load of cobs, when only a few years back one could get all the cobs he wanted for a dollar a load.
 By reading the news of twen ty years ago in the Press this week i. will be noted that flour was selling at S5 cents to S1 a sack; today it is ST.. 75 to S2 per sack Note the difference? And there has been a corresponding increase in the price of every thing that goes into the makeup of a newspaper, and yet there are some who wonder why the pub fisher cannot live just as cheap ly as twenty years ago.
 The Publicity Act is again under discussion in the State Legislature. Friends Of the act continue to lay great stress on the Publicity called for in the act, and to either minimize or ig- nore the cost of the operation of the law. As one of Fayetteville's lawyers aptly expresses it, he Is For the Act of Publicity, but against the Publicity Act There is no good in advertising long and cumbersome reports of confounding masses of figures, which will be rarely read and less frequently understood Any way, those figures which, before being advertised. were open for public inspection will disclose nothing.

The following article was handed in by one of Springdale highly respect ed young ladies. She is for progress in every sense of the word, and has been president of Springdale's leading women's club at different tines. The article, while clipped from the Heber Springs paper, and is speaking of a fire recently occur ring at that place, nevertheless each word, line and syllable can very properly be applied to Springdale, ane her recent S25 900 fire.
 Shall Heber Springs be Destroyed?
 Shall the ravaging flames of fire destroy this city by degrees? Shall the most beautiful and costly public buildings stand helpless before the spreading sparks and be burned by the blinding blazes? Shall the homes the schools, the churches-the all that makes thriving city be expos cd to the dangers of such spreading fires as devastate whole blocks and whole towns, without any protection at all? Shall the citizens be burden ed by insurance rates almost prohib- tive? Shall capital be kept from this town because of no fire fighting facilities and no protection nor req sonabe insurance rates? Shall the insurance companies withdraw from the city because of inevitable loss es? These are burning questions on a burning subject and should be ask ei Of every taxpayer and every cit izen of Heber Springs, in whose hands and power repose the answer favorable or unfavorable, whichever il may be.
 Today one may be guided over town by tAe vacant lots covered with the ashes of once beautiful struc- tnra. He needs no one to tell him tic story-the ruins speak for them selves. There was once a building worth thousands of dollars to it's owner and worth infinitely more 10 the town. There was no waterworks n fire department no protection. And since fire is no respector of per sons or property-that magnifi- cent building burned-and the ashes remain to tell tine tale.
 In this city within the past five months nearly $1oo .o00 worth of valu= able property has been laid to waste by uncomfortable flames which rag

 If anybod., haz seen the full proceedings of the court publish ed ia the Benton County Demo- crat. who during a revival meet ing last fall was converted and gave out to the word that it was going to publish the truth, no matter who it hit, will they please call our attention to it it. We have so far been unable to locate the spot ia which it ap- peared-Rogers Republican.
 Maybe the Bentonyille Democrat has become a "spotless' paper since the conversion.
 In our Hickory Flatt items last week was mentioned good panther story It told how the animal jumped on the end gate of wagon, and fell of when the team became frightened, and started to run. The occurrence happened at Batler's ford, on White river. and the delicate connection comes from the fact that this is a favorite fishing camp for local sportsmen. Panther, or no panther, some of the more tim id will now look well to their fire arms, before yenturing there after the finny tribe, and perhaps some of them will have an excuse to take along a little more snake medicine,' it's good for panther squalls" too,
 We take off our hats to the Fayetteville Democrat, which is making neryy fight against sev- eral ex-sheriffs to recover tax money illegally withheld by them and converted to their own use. The Democrat reports that all of them, for several terms back, are planning to make restitution. We consider this a real triumph for the searchlight of publicity-the fearless newspaper.-Fort Smith Times Record.
 And yet Senator Greenhouse who comes from Washington county in which Fayetteville is located, is opposed to the public ity bill, which lets the people know what becomes of the money they pay as taxes.-Arkansas Gazette,
 And so IS the Fayetteville Dem ocrat.
