COUNCIL ORDERS
CONDEMNATION OF
RIVER FRONT Land
Property Required by MI
nicipality as Dumping
Place for Offal.

The city council, in special session
last night adopted a resolution dl-
recting and instructing City Attorney
Earl S. Wood to take the legal meas
ures necessary to condemn the prop
erty north Of East Second avenue and
on the west bank of Mallory's ditch,
that the city may use the property III
question as a permanent dumping
place for offal and nightsoi collected
from the open closets in the city.
Until the matter can be carried
through, the city will continue to
dump this stuff into sewer, in the
same neighborhood, every pfccautlon
being taken to minimize or remove
altogether whatever annoyance or Of
Tense such course might cause to the
residents of that section.
When the city authorities some time
ago found themselves compelled to
obtain a new dumping place, because
of the moving of the channel OF the
river, it was believed the dumping
into the sewer would be satisfactory.
Complaint has been made, however,
by residents Of the section involved
against such practice, and these were
so well grounded on fact and reason
that the council was compelled to
find some other dumping place.
During the discussion of the matter
last night it was stated that the only
land available for such purpose was
the properly of M. l.. Culpepper, at
East Second avenue and Mallory's
ditch. On this land, however, Joe
Meyer, steamboat agent, has lease
which is to run eight years or 50
longer. Mr.. Meyer, it was stated,
has refused to reach an agreement
with the city as to the lease, hence
the decision by the council TO have the
city attorney start condemnation
action, thus to give the city title to
the property and also title to the
lease, owner of the property and
holder of the lease both to be paid for
whatever damage they suffer in the
premises, the damages to be fixed by
the jury which decides the matter.
In the meantime the council in
structed the sanitary committee to
communicate with the protesting
property owners, explain Che situation,
and make it plain that the present
method of dumping the offal will be
kept up only until the new dumping
place is put into service, which will be
a very short space of time, according
to expectations.

ample of what careful and vet aggrcs-
sive management can accomplish in

ARKANSAS Will
Be HARD HIT BY
PROPOSED RATES
Traffic Expert Taylor Goes
to Washington to Oppose
K Freight Raise.
RAILROADS TAKE
UNFAIR ADVANTAGE
Briefs Prepared by Pine Bluff Bureau
Commissioner Show How Schedule
Would Discriminate Against
Arkansas.

w. M. Taylor, commissioner of the
Pine Bluff Traffic bureau, left yes
| terday afternoon for Washington, D.
c., where he will join C. D. Mowen,
commissioner for the Fort Smith Traf-
| fic bureau, the two to make argument
! before the interstate commerce COM
mission, in the matter Of objections
! already filed by the two traffic bu-
reaus against the freight rates pro-
posed by the trunk line railroads, fol-
lowing the recent decision of the COM
mission in the Memphis rate case.
Mr.. Taylor and Mr.. Mowen will
make the oral argument Thursday be-
fore Commissioner Daniel. They will
be the sole representatives of the
shippers of Arkansas in the matter,
and Mr.. Taylor had not expected to
make the trip, reaching the decision
rather suddenly yesterday, when he
learned Mr. Mowen otherwise would
be alone to present the case to the
commission.
| Mr.. Taylor and Mr.. Mowen already
have filed with the commission briefs
and exhibits relative to the matter,
these comprising scores of pages of
I, typwritten data, and including dozens
of tables, showing present rates as
compared with the rates proposed by
the roads, the comparison making
plain the increase in each class and
commodity, and demonstrating the al
legged unfair advantage being taken
| by the roads of the commissions re-
cent ruling.
Technical in high degree, and there
fore extremely difficult to understand
by any but traffic man, Mr.. Taylor
and Mr.. Mowen, in their exhibits have
shown that the rates proposed by the
railroads will actually bring about in
creases ranging from one cent to 61s
cents on various classes, which would
give Memphis shippers considerable
advantage over Arkansas shippers.
The question of differentials is
handled at considerable length by Mr..
Taylor in his brief, the local traffic
commission showing by actual fig
ures that the railroads have made bold
effort to so arrange these differentials
as to give big advantage again to
Memphis, to the consequent disad-
vantage of and discrimination against
Pine Bluff, little Rock, Fort Smith
and other Arkansas central shipping.
Possibly never before has there
been pending a case so important to
the shipping interests of this state
and city, and because of this fact,
every interest is actively participat-
| ing in the fight being made for final
settlement, on a fair and equitable
basis, by the interstate commerce COM
mission, Of the thousand and one mat
tiers intricately connected with the
general ruling of the commission.

body in Washington has day at home.
It's Wednesday in the northwest, and
Monday on the hill, and Friday in the

the days when lived there. And you'll

has Wednesdays in January, and Mrs.
Jones Fridays in February, and Mrs.
