Little Rock
The Arkansas Railroad Commission,
following a conference with Judge Ja-
cob Trieber, announced it would file
petition in the United States Dis
trict Court asking a modification OF
the courts order restraining the com.
mission from enforcing its new
freight tariff on the Frisco railroad.
The petition will allege that the Fris-
co tariff now in operation is prohibi-
tive and discriminatory. It will ask
that the commission be allowed TO In
troduce evidence to show where
changes should be made. The result
may be another court tariff, such as
was In effect during the litigation Of
several years ago, according to men,
bers OF the commission.
1--WE wish permission to show the
court that the tariff the Frisco has
put into effect is unjust said Com
missioner T. E. Wood. Judge Trieber
told us he would entertain the mo-
tion for a modification Of the courts

me announcement or tie sale OF
zinc ore in Joplin at a price Of 500
q ton, basis price, the highest on roc
ord, means more to Boone county and
TO the other counties Of the northwest
Arkansas zinc fields than any other
industrial announcement for many
years. 1t is sure TO bring an even
greater activity in the mining fields
which are now being mined by a
newer and more practical set Of men,
who are making more than "livings'
from properties that had long been
idle
Ores that assay more than so per
cent Of metallic zinc ore are sold for
an increase in price Of 81 for eacn
per cent above 60. The ores Of this
district, that is the jack ores, run
higher in metallic zinc than 60 per
cent, some assaying as high as 65 per
cent and in some instances they are
richer even than that This meaus
that, at a basis price of 500 a ton,
65 per cent ores would sell for $lO5
a ton.
The new price Of ore is $50 ton
higher than was paid Is to 20 years
ago, and when the fields were more
active than they were 10 years ago,
when the bottom dropped out" Of in
terest here and capital became skepti.
cal Of the district.
Much Of the ore shipped from the
Arkansas fields is hauled several
miles over country roads to the rail.
roads Miners are hauling zinc and
lead from Newton county beyond
Jaspar, distances Of more than 80
miles, to Harrison, for shipment With
the high prices more ore will be
hauled and a greater number Of lille
mines, it is expected, will he put into
operation,
Since the announcement Of higher
ore prices has been made inquiries
have been coming in to property own,
ers from miners in the Joplin dis.
trict for propositions to lease lands
