A horseshoeing shop of the Briggs
Company, situated on East Garden
street, was forced open some time
Sunday night, and when the proprie-
tor showed up yesterday morning and
made an investigation, the only miss

the firms account book. 1t was said
that tools and other articles of value
were easily reached, but the account
book was the only thing which ap-
peared valuable to the Nocturnal

SEEKS TO DEVELOP

A. A. Weber of Batesville,
secretary Of the White River
Development Association, is
gathering statistics on the ac-
tual tonnage shipped from the
upper White river section, and
prospective tonnage that can
be developed, to present to the
engineers Of the war depart
ment, who will make a resur-
Vey of the White river shortly.

OF completing the system of
locks and dams in the river
that was started over a decade
ago.
Mr.. Weber states data al
ready gathered by him shows
the tonnage has practically
doubled during the past two
years, owing to the develop
ment of the mineral, stone and
other resources, and that the
prospective tonnage that would
be developed upon the COM
pletion of the lock and dam
system is incalculable. The
stone resources, which consists
of limestone, marble and glass
sand. are almost Incompetent

above the river is susceptible

lions of tons of commercial
stone.
The zine field, which covers
a large area of the upper coun-
try, has hardly been scratched,

CHARITIES BOARDS
SUSTAINED BY COURT
DR.. Bledsoe Loses AS Superin.
tendent State Hospital in
the Supreme Court

Little Rock, Nov. 6.-The
Arkansas supreme court, today
sustained the action of the
state charitable board in re-
moving DR.. E. P. Bledsoe, SUI
erintendent of the State Hospi-
tai for Nervous Diseases. The
position, it is said, will again
be rendered to DR.. j. l.. Greene
former superintendent of the
institution.
The court, in the opinion
handed down held that the
suit brought by DR.. Bledsoe
was not an action against the
state, but against the board, an
agency created by the state. It
also held that the board, in act
ing in the 8ledsoe controversy
acted as a quasi judicial tri-
bunal.
"Mueh of the testimony"
said the courts decision, rs to
the effect that DR.. Bledsoe's
conduct toward attendants, if
not actually uncivil and dis
courteous, manifested indiffer-
ence or unwillingness to get ac-
quainted with his subordinates.
Or. Bleds6e, in his testimony
gives an account of hismanage-
ment of the institution which
is very satisfactory, if his YER
sion of the matter is accepted
as true, and he is corroborated
in all essential details by other
testimony; but it cannot be
said that the midisputed ev1-
dence shows that there is no
foundation for charges made
against him.
I'VE are not called on pri-
marily to decide whether the
decision Of the board was cor
rect. The lawmakers have plac-
ed that authority in the hands
of the board Of control, and il
would be a clear encr0achment

government to undertake tc

This being true, it becomes

founded principles of law, tc
leave undisturbed the action

ed by the lawmakers to pass
upon those questions. Any 9th
er view would make the board
of control a mere conduit
through which a decision on
the removal of an unfaithful

would be passed up to the
courts, instead of having the
matter where the lawmakers
have placed tin the hands

A Newspaper With A
Rubber Conscience

The Arkansas Gazette pro-
fesses to be a strong champion
of statewide prohibition for
Arkansas, and yet for a few
dollars the Gazette sells space
in that paper to the Liquor Or
ganization to publish mislead-
ing and untrue statements con-
corning Act No. 2 which the Ii
quor men initiated for no 9TH
er purpose than to repeal the
statewide prohibition law and
put saloons back in Arkansas.
Last Sundays issue Of the
Gazette carried whole page
advertisement for Act No. 2
which contained many false
and misleading statements, cal
culated to more than counter
act any sentiment the Gazette
might have created against the
bill.
The Gazette's editorial ar
ticles against Act No. 2 were
good, and were true, but in the
same issue of the paper IN
which it makes these arguments
it sells an entire page Of space
to a liquor organization for the
publication Of an advertise
ment containing many state
ments which the Gazette knew
were entirely false and mis-
leading.
An honest, fair and truthful
discussion of both sides of any
public question is perfectly fair
and legitimate and is always
to be desired. But the liquor
question involves a moralissue5
and from a standpoint of right,
the sale of liquor cannot be
logically defended.
A newspaper with a con-
for any question involving a
moral issue, and then for the
sake of few dollars sell whole
pages of space for the publiea-
ton of false and misleading
advertisements seeking to over
throw the very thing that it
processes to stand for.
But the Gazette has about as
much conscience as a snake.
and the sound of coin in the
Gazette's cash register is the
one convincing argument that
cannot be answered, so far as
that paper is concerned.
In the Gazette office, cash is
right, any time and all the
time. The Gazette's code of
moral ethics is printed on the
back of checkbook, 50 that
the checks are always easily
acceptable without having to
pass around or come in con-
tact with its moral code.
The Gazette has been freely
commended by Baptist Assoei-
ations, Methodist conferences
-----
The Newark journal., 1916-11-09

and other religious and moral
organizations for its stand up
on the liquor question, but

BENEFICIAL RAINS
 STEADY MARKET
Prices Based Off Under Scattered Local Selling
 and Liquidation

New York, May 16.-Reports of bene- ficial rains in the eastern belt were fol- lowed by 8 considerable selling move ment in the cotton market here this morning. but after easing off to 12,S5c for July, prices steadied on covering and rebuying by people who had taken prof it's on long cotton last week. July ral- lied to 12.92c and closed at 12.91c with the general list closing steady at a net de- cline of 1 to points.
 Cables were relatively steady and the market here opened steady at an ad- vance of points to a decline of 4 points with the near months showing gains Prices almost immediately eased off, however, under scattered local selling and liquidation, while there also seemed to be some selling here by houses with eastern belt connections. A number of private reports indicating beneficial rains in drouthy sections served to encourage reaotionary sentiment, and the general list worked about 8 to 10 points net lower during the middle of the morning Liverpool was a good buyer during the first hour, absorbing a good many con tracts. and the market steadied around 12.96c for October and 13.13c for December or about g per bale under the high level of last week. One of the more prominent local spot houses was credited with sell ing October and December freely, but was a buyer of July, and the failure of the rain news to bring out more general pressure, probably led to some covering during the afternoon.
 Private cables reported a steady mar ket in Liverpool and the southern sell ing here during the day was attributed to scattering liquidation with little or no talk of hedge selling around the ring.

TRADING LIGHT ON COTTON MARKET Official Quotations Helped to Close Market at a
 Steady Tone

New Orleans, May 16.-Fluctuations in the cotton market were sluggish and trading light today. For a while prices were easily moved, but within narrow limits. In the afternoon price changes were uninportant. The close was at a net decline for the session of 3 to points.
 Around the opening the most active months were to 4 points up in response to a higher Liverpool than due, but the improvement was brief. Offerings in- creased on reports of rains In the Atlan- tics, where drouth has been complained of, and still further increased on the fore cast of more rain in the Carolinas and Georgia. At the lowest prices were il to 13 points under yesterdays final quota tions. Moderate buying met the market toward the middle of the day. causing a partial reaction.
 Bearish comment on the spot market was that factors were shading prices to hasten sales, but the official quotations for the day were unchanged which helped to close the market with steady tone.
