New Road to Open

Train service on the Fort Smith. Subiaco & Rock Island railway will be installed about July l, Edward Evenson. acting superintendent of that line, announced Monday.
 Negotiations have not been completed, but it is believed that an arrangement will be made with the Arkansas Central rail- way. by which the equipment used in the passenger runs will be run over the new line from Paris to Dardanelle, and the trip from Dardanelle to this city will be made without chang of cars.
 We had hoped to install train servlce June 1. but were delayed in completing the track by material. labor and weather. " said Mir. Evenson Monday. "The track will be in excellent shape by the last of June at the rate work is now progressing"
 The first train wac run over the road on April, "A. a week ahead of the date set by Sam Lazarus, president of the road at the time the contracts were signed for the extension of the line from Scranton.
 The line originally protected more than 30 years ago. and always has been regarded as one of the best feeders this city could obtain.

Louisiana And Suffrage.

The senate of Louisiana has it in her power to break the politi- cal shackles that bind a great half of the people in this country but she has not the power to continue the date of serfdom.
 Whatever the Legislature at Baton Rouge does on the ques tion of woman suffrage cannot affect the ultimate fate of it be- cause the ratification of the sui. frage constitional amendment is new beyond the shadow of a doubt. Only one more state is needed to complete ratification and this vote can be secured from several common wealths whose legislatures are in session or will be convened in the near future. If the Louisiana legisla- tors fully realized that easy la ur- els can be secured for their own state and section by merely ac- cepting the inevitable we feel sure that the south will receive the credit for giving unto wom- manhood another part of her just dues. Louisiana has honors thrust upon her and she ought not to be so shortsighted as to reject them. The result is cer- tain. but the time is short.

Large Crowd Hears
 TerraIS Address

Tom J. Terral, secretary of state and candidate for governor addressed a large crowd in the court house here Monday night.
 His speech was featured by a lack of mud-slinging. and he set forth hls platform and the things he stands for without criticising or berating his opponents in the field.
 Terrall made many friends here and we predict that he will receive a large following in South Franklin county. AS we are crowded for space this week we will give fuller details of the ad- dress in a later issue. Charles ton Express.

Some Things Congress
 Did Not Do

In reply to a telegram from railroad brotherhood officials. who had protested against the adjournment of Congress. Presi- dent Wilson sent a message re- citing that on August 8. 1919, he had asked Congress to take action on certain lines with re- spect to the cost of living: but in nine months Congress had taken no important remedial action with respect to the high cost of living problem on the lines in- dicated in that address or On any other line.
 President Wilson added that not only had Congress failed to deal with the cost of living. but it had failed even to give serious consideration to the urgent ap. peals. oft repeated by the presi dent and by the secretary of Treasury. to revise the tax laws. which. in their present form, are indirectly responsible for the high cost of living.
 Those are some of the deplor- able omissions of the body that has just adjourned. In the words of President Wilson. Tt must be evident to all that the dominating motive which has actuated this Congress is pol itical expediency rather" than lofty purpose to serve the pub. "lic welfare. "-Arkansas Gag. cite.

GET It STRAIGHT

Through an unintentional error in
newspaper publicity, which was more
or less general over the United States
the public has been given the impress
sion that incomes from stocks are not
subject to the income tax.
This, it appears, is an error.
If you own certain amount of
stock in a corporation and you receive
an annual income of 8 or 10 per cent,
or ally other amount, from that stock,
the income is subject to taxation pro-
vided it is paid to you in currency or
by check.
But if that dividend is paid to you
in the form of additional stock in the
corporation, then such. income in the
form of additional stock is not sub
ject to income taxation.
The public will feel relief in know
ing that the holders of great wealth
in the form of stocks are not to escape
their just proportion of taxation.
This paper is glad to aid in making
correction of an error into which mil
lions of people appear to have inno-
Gently fallen.
