SEN NATOR RANEY CHECKING
 PETITIONS ANTI-PROHIS

Little Rock, July 14.-Senator T. !. Ranoy, member of the State Board of Control of Charitable Institutions, is checking the petitions recently hled with the Secretary of State, by Ben L. Griffin, president of the Local Self Government League, for the repeal of the statewide prohibition law. Ac- cording to the figures compiled by Mr. Griffin there are 18,136 names on the petition, and only 10,S41 are ne- cessary. The petitions are being checked to determine the number of signatures. Copies of the names will then be made, and sent to the various counties for verifcation.
 Should this course prove that any considerable number of signatures are irregular, an injunction would be sought to prevent the secretary from certifying out the proposed act, But should it appear, however, that the signatures are legal, the energies of the Anti-Saloon League and the pro- hibitionist forces of the state vii, be turned upon a campaign against the passage of the act at the November election. It is beginning to be real ized that there will be a hard fight on the question in the approaching campaign

SHIPS 60 CARS ZINC ORE FROM
 ARKANSAS MINING DISTRICT

Little Rock, July 14.-J. H. Hand of Melville, Special Field Deputy of the mining division of the Depart ment of Mines, Manufactures and Agriculture, reports a total of 50 cars of zinc ore shipped from the various districts. The Rush District leads with total of 23 cars. Reliable in- formation shows that %t least thirty cars, mostly carhonates, are being held in reserve by operators and prospectors, awaiting better prices. Especially is this true at Zine, Ponca City, and Mt. Hersey in Newton coun- ty and St. Joe and Tomahawk, Searcy county.
 Mr. Hand reports that "The activ- ity in operations throughout the en- tire zinc area is increasing all the time regardless of depreciation in the prices of ore. The average ton mage per car is 20 tons. and the price realized during the last thirty days averaged around $60 per ton fer car bonate ore and 800 per ton for jack ore. The jack ore is sold on a basis of 60 per cent, carrying an increase in price of $1 for each unit of l per cent over 60, and a decrease accord ingly on all ore running below 50 per cent. The basis on carbonate ore .s 40 per cent with $1 per unit oc l per cent increase in price over 70 per cent and a decrease accordingly on ore running below 10 per cent. The average price per car for zine for the past month has been around $500"
