Contract For Million Ties.
Norfork, Nov. 11.—The tie
contract of the Iron Mountain &
Southern Railorad was let last
weei; to the Central Tie Compa
ny of St. Louis, a large concern
that deals exclusively in ties.
The contract was for the years
I'M To. Ail the subcontractor
on the White River Division
tha handled the output last
year will handle the new con
tracts for the company. The
White River division this year
will put out more than 1,000,000
ties, the largest number ever
turned off the division.
The railroad tie business as
handled by the big railroad com
panies is through an enlisted ar
my of hundreds, all skilled in
their various lines of work. The
contract for certain territory is
let first to one big firm that lias
the money to swing the busi
ness. Immediately after the
contract is let they start to en
list their army, which cor.-istsl
of subcontractors, timber buy
ers and tie hackers. The sub
contram nrs then appoint con
tractors under them. These are
mostly -mall merchants and
business men who live and do
business in the small towns
along the railroads or in proxim
ity to the rivers, from the tree
to the track many assist in help
ing the tie along. First, the
timber buyer buys the tree,
then comes the tie hacker, who
works it up. After this comes
the hauler, wh< puts it on the
railroad or river bank. If on the
river, next comes the binders,
who make them into rafts. Then
the raftsmen. At the first river
| railroad point they are drawn
; and placed on a yard. The in
jspector then comes along and
puts funny little characters on
Them that look like Chinese
I writing, which only a tie man
lean interpret, which give them
j their respective grades. Next,
they are shipped to the division
superintendent on the road
where they are to be laid,and he
in turn scatters them over the
division. The tie leaves the tree
worth from 5 to 10 cents a cut
and winds up in the track worth
from 50 to 75 cents, according to
the market. There are approx
imately a thousand people en
gaged in the tie business in its
various divisions in the White
River country.
Law Applies To All Nurses.
Special to Independent.
Little Rock, Nov. 12.— The
new law regulating the licens
ing of professional nurses ap
plies to all nurses, whether grad
uates or not. In a communica
tion to Mrs. F. L. Aydelette,
President of the Nurses Associ
at ion, Attorney General Moose
says:
“I find nothing in the act that
expressly limits the applicants
to license to those who have
graduated from a training
school. On the other hand, it is
plain that the act contemplates
that ‘all persons desiring the
practice of professional nursing
may be examined” and that the
legislature left no doubt on
this point when it provided that
the registered graduate nurse
might be licensed without exam
ination: for whom is the exami
nation provided unless it be for
those who are not graduates?
Of course, no one could ever be
examined if she could be regis
tered by exhibiting her diplo
ma from a training school. It
seems clear to me therefore that
you would not be authorized to
refuse an examination to any
! person who may apply and who
otherwise meets the require
| ments of the statute.

FIRST WARRANT
RANKS CASH'D
Crider Recent Agreemenl Made
B\ Governor Hays With
Bankers of Stale.
. - -
Special to Independent.
Little Rock. Nov. 12.— The
[first warrant to be received to
| be cashed under the terms of
the arrangement that has been
made by Governor Hays with
the bankers of the state, came
from J. P. Milan, assessor of
Crittenden county, for $725.20.
It will be sent by Governor
Hays to one of the banks that
has agreed to carry state war
rants, and will be discounted un
til August 1, 191 h about G per
cent.
Governor Hays has received
sufficient replies from the banks
to insure the success of the pro
ject. The favorable replies al
ready received are sufficient to
take care of about $GO0,OOO of
state warrants. A Port Smith
and a Batesville bank have ta
ken $50,000 each, and another
Fort Smith bank has taken $40,
000. Anyone holding warrants
and desiring to realize on them
can do so by writ ing'the govern
or- office for the name of some
bank that has agreed to handle
the warrants. The names of
several or all of the banks will
i lie furnished.

Perhaps that is still your method
and you look forward to each wash
day with delight. Well, hardly!
