in every way to prevent lawlessness

farmers not to sell, uunder penalty of
being whipped for the first and second
offenses and suffering death for the

RECORDER HOLDS DOWN TOWN
Is the Only Man that Has the Nerve
To Stay on the Job.

There are many individuals who
would appreciate an opportunity to
"get from under" their financial ~obli-
cations with the ease that has been
acquired by the offices of the City of
Dardanelle. 1t appears that the debts
of the municipality had become very
great and that there was no relief in
sight. consequently, the mayor and all
members of the city council rendered
their resignation and left the creditors
of the city to take such steps as the
law might provide to secure the pay,
ment of their claims. At last account
the recorder alone was holding down
the fort, and no announcement has
been made as to whether he will de-
eide to follow the other members OF
the administration, or will hold the
bag until relief comes.

FIRE DESTROYS FlFTY-TWO
PINE BLUFF RESIDENCES
COnflagati0n Causes Loss of S2OG.0OO
or 100000 at Pine Bluff: Many
Negroes Are Homeless,

Pine Blue, Oct. II. - Fifty-two
houses occupied by negroes and two
residences of white people were de-
stroyed and many others damaged by
fire which swept 10 becks this aft
ernoon. The loss is estimated at be-
tween 100000 and 100000.
The fire started at , O'Clock from
q defective fue in a negro house at
Thirteenth avenue and Indiana street,
and swept nearly every building in
the area bounded by Tenth and Thir-
teenth avenues and Indiana and Vir-
ginia streets All these We're negro
homes. At Eleventh avenue and In
diana street, the flames leaped over
vacant area of four blocks and at
tackled houses occupied by white
people in the 1000 block on East
Seventh street. Two of these were
burned and another damaged
The Centennial Baptist church, ne
gro, four small grocery stores and
two wood yards were destroyed by
the flames.
\ high wind spread the fire at its
start, but it suddenly died down
about four O'Clock and doubtless saved
a large section of the east side of the
city between the burned area and the
river.
The area burned was all outside the
water district, and firemen were pow
erless to combat the flames, They
feared to lay long lines of hose from
distant hydr&nts because of danger
that the blaze would spread into other
districts where water was available
The only two houses to burn where
firemen could get to them were occu-
pied by J. B. Clark, a Cotton Belt
Conductor, and A. NJ. Lee.
