MINERS COMPLAIN
 TO LABOR OFFICER

Little Rock. June 7.|.abor Com missioner J. c. Clary yesterday re- ceived a complaint from miners at Rush, Marion county. about the con- ditions of the zinc mines. A few days ago an accident at the Rush mines resulted in the death of three State Mine Inspector Shaw to set a time when they can make thorough inspection of the mines of North Ar kansas to determine their safety. He has also asked the sttorney-general for an opinion as to the authority of the state mine inspector in the zinc mines, as the law appears to confine his work to the coal mines.
 Several months ago Inspector Shaw and Aubrey Martin then deputy labor commissioner, made a complete in spection of the zinc mines. and filed comprehensive report of their find ings. Among other things. their re- port says:
 Some provision should be made for safeguarding the workmen in the zinc mines. as there now seems to be either reckless disregard for the value of human life, or the people do not realize that they need to take any precaution to prevent accidents. There is practically no timbering in the mines. the idea seeming to pre- vail that as the roofs are rock, they can stand any strain, even though there are frequent falls of rock in some of the mines, and some of the roofs are full of cracks. Unless there is some timbering there are apt to be some serious accidents. The prac. tice of going back on shots that fail to go off should also be regulated.
 Most of the mines at present are crude and undeveloped. large part of the mining being done by hand. and the ore rolled out in wheelbar- rows. A large part of the mines have drift openings and do not provide es- exponent shafts or any method of escape for the men in case of acci- dent Some of the better equipped mines have small trolleys to carry out the ore and air or steam drills to aid in mining the ore.

SUFFRAGETTES ARE

The Congressional union for Woman Suffrage completed the organization of the Woman's party with the adoption of the Susan B. Anthony amendment as the only plank of it's platform, and appointed a committee to demand that it be in- corporated in the Republican plat form.
 An assembly called by the National American Women's Suffrage associa- tion went on record as opposed to a camaign for an amendment to the fed eral constitution for woman suffrage, and cheered statement by Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, who presided, that suffrage should be sought by women wherever "an open door could be found"

The town with good hotel accom- modations has a distinct advantage over the town that hasn't.
 Some misguided persons think it is a cinch to run a good hotel. They think hotel-keeper has nothing to do except put his hands in his pocket and listen to the money rolling in.
 But there are no John D. Rocke- fellers in the hotel business.
 How many hotel-keepers do you know of that have become rich and powerful?
 Ask Walter Trulock, or the owner or manager of any other first-class hotel
 The big hotels in the big cities are owned by big corporations that ap- pear to be making money. But there arc lots of hotels in the big burgs that don't make money.
 The hotels in the small cities and towns are usually owned by men who SCIdpG llkG Jlle TeSC Ol us JO make both ends meet. They contribute to the reputation of the town among out siders to a greater extent than any other single class of citizens, because town with good hotel accommoda- tions is known to men all over the map.
 Pine Bluff is very fortunate in hav- ing exceptionally good hotel accom- modations. In the Pines, the city has one of the best hotels in the country. It would do credit to city twice the size of Pine Bluff, and there is not city of similar size in the South, so far as we know, that has better. Then there is the Jefferson, one of the best of its class, and numerous other places to supply the wants of strangers according to their desires and the amount they wish to pay

Assert ing that the country was "wearied afresh by disappointing and dis dressing Democratic administration, 1" and was calling for Republican relief the speaker, before undertaking to discuss political issues, appealed to the delegate sto forget the differences which divided the party in 1912.
 Referring to the administrators foreign policy in the European war. Senator Harding declared that it had spoken with more rhetoric tha nreso- lution.

It is mighty hard thing to esti- mate the size of crowd. Even trained reporters rarely agree on the number of persons attending a public function, especially if it is in the open air. Knowing these facts, it might be in line with charity to overlook the way experts at figures handle battle losses and the cost of war. We all know the figures must be big, but save us from attempting to get them exact.

tax limit to 12 mills they would imme- diateTy impose that amount. This theory is untenable, as the reports shown that not even half of the school districts of Arkansas have availed themselves of the privilege of levying the tI-mill tax.
 A review of the county examiners report to the department of educa- tion for the year ending June 30, 1915, shows that the levy in the 3138 dis tricts reporting, out of the total of 5165 in the state, was as follows: ' mills, 2172 districts; 6 mills, 60; , mills, 715; i mills, 37; 3 mills, Al; 2 mills S6; ] mill, l. No milage tax whatever was levied in 23 districts.
