Secured From Ohio.
Special to Independent.
Little Rock, April 29- —The
Arkansas tax commission sent
to Ohio and secured copies of
the forms upon which reports
of publicity corporations are
made to the Ohio commission
which has the handling of such
matters, intending to use them
under the Arkansas laws, but
it has been found the printing of
the forms will be more than the
contingent fund of the tax com
mission can stand. There are
three different forms and if put
into use, will require about $1,
500 each in printing.
The commissioners are con
fident they will make money for
the state if they decide to use
nest; lurms on account oi tneir
being so full of detail, thus pre
venting many things to escape
that would be overlooked on the
ordinary form. The commission
will endeavor to reduce the
forms which the Ohio commis
sion has spent years in bringing
to a point of perfection, but the
chances are they will eventual
ly decide it cannot be improved
on, and that it will be false e
conomy to reduce it, so have it
printed as it stands.
Must Pay for Surveys.
Special to Independent.
Little Rock, April 29.—Attor
ney General W. L. Moose has
rendered an opinion in which he
declares that surveyors or any
me making copies of county
slats or field notes which are in
the hands of the county clerks,
must pay for them the same as I
hough the clerk had prepared j
he copies. The attorney general
dates the counties purchased
hese notes from the State Land
Commissioner, and the fees are J
set in order to reimburse the
ounty for the expenses, and if i
he surveyors make copy with-!
iut cost, there will be no one
eft to purchase the copies, for 1
o one else has use for them. ,

Newport Wins Again.
Nine to one was the story
told Saturday afternoon after
the game was over between the
Batesville and Newport High
School baseball teams.
It was a one sided game from
the beginning, the Batesville
lads beingunable to solve Ryan »
delivery for only two safeties,
and whipping into ethereal
space for eleven strike outs.
Their only run came in the
fourth when Trevathan reached
first base by an error of Ryan’s,
stole second and immediately
raced to third, and scored on an (
infield hit by Warner.
The Batesville boys played a
better game in the field than
the visitors, and had they been
able to hit in the pinches, would
undoubtedly Have won.
The Newport boys played a
nice clean game, and are good
winners, as they would doubt
less be good losers. The only
bad feature is the fact that their
pitcher, the whole cause of the
local team’s downfall, and9l!
hard hitting third basen^ 9|
neither school boys, whj}e’ 9|

stole eight bases, while
