To Fight Free Bridge.
Special to Independent.
Little Rock, April 21.—The
Little Rock law firm of Carmi
chael, Brooks, Powers & Rector
is now connected with the oppo
nents to the Pine Bluff free
bridge and Henry M. Rector
spent the past week in and about
Pine Bluff taking depositions in
the case. Over 1000 pages of
testimony was taken by those
opposing the erection of thejfree
bridge across the river near
Pine Bluff. * . j
Attorney Rector states he is j
confident that a majority of the ;
property value in the district, as i
well as a majority of the citizens ;
are opposed to the distiict.
Those favoring the bridge have
won every turn in the case so I
far, however.

New $12,000 Oil Mill.
Special to Independent.
Little Rock, April 21.—Plans
have been completed for the
new $125,000 oil mill to be erect
ed by the Rose City Cotton Oil
Company in Argenta, and the
contract will be let before May
1, in order that the plant be
ready for operation in the fall.
The old Rose City plant was de
stroyed by fire several weeks j
ago, and it was rumored at the
time that it would not be re
rebuilt, the owners seeking an
other location. The stockhold
ers decided Argenta was the
best place for the plant and im
mediately began plans f.or re
building. This concern is one of
the largest in Arkansas and its
: season payroll reaches nearly
$100,000. It is probably
the largest buyer of seed in the
state.
