NEW INDUSTRIES
NEED ENCOURAGEMENT.
Representative Keel Will Again In
troduce Constitutional Amend
ment Exempting New Manu
factories From Taxation.
John Keel of Newport, representa
tive from Jackson county, was among
the visitors in Little Rock Tuesday
says the Gazette. Mr. Keel has al
ready served two terms in the legis
lature and was re-elected in Septem
ber. In both sessions of the general
assembly in which he has served Mr.
Keel has been a strong advocate of
protection for new industries in the
state. His constitutional amendment
exempting all new manufactories
from taxation for a period of eight or
ten years was first defeated by the
house and passed by the senate, and
then passed by the house and defeat
ed in the senate. He intends to in
troduce the amendment at the com -
ing session. “What Arkansas needs
now is capital,” said Mr. Keel, “and
where capital is to be taxed from the
first entrance into the state, it natur
ally is timid and finds a place for ex
penditure under more favorable con
ditions. The adoption of the amend
ment would mean an invitation to
capital, and through it progress and
development. The invitation has
been extended by nearly every other
southern state, and that is why Ar
kansas must not lag in their train.
Yet there is hardly another state in
the Union so replete with natural and
UUUC VtJJLUpOU ICSUUIUOO. Ul
arguments which defeated the amend
ment was that it was unjust io tax the
nardworked farmer with the white
mule and leave a corporation free of
taxation for any length of time. The
argument is shortsighted. The farm
er with the white mule will never
have an opportunity to do anything
else. Another thing in this connection
is that while we are keeping the in
dustries away by taxation the burden
is falling on this same farmer with the
white mule. For instance, take our
cotton, no better than which is raised
anywhere in the world. The farmer
raises his cotton, sells it, giving two
or three middlemen a profit. It goes
to the eastern mills and is manufac
tured into cloth. It is sent back here
after passing through the hands of
three or four other dealers, all of
whom get their profit, and is sold
back to the farmer with the white
mule with all the profits and the
I freight, the cost of manufacture, etc.,
added. Who gets the worst of the
I deal? To exempt the factories from
taxation is to bring them here to Ar- |
kansas, where the raw material is j
right at the side door. Then the
freight and the profits of half dozen |
middlemen are-eliminated. The farm
ers are the ones who suffer in the end, i
directly or indirectly, in every in
stance when a factory of any kind is
prevented from entering the state.”
BLACK ROCK BUSINESS MEN.
Biack Rock, Nov. 11.—The Business
Men’s League has been organized at
this place with fifty members and the i
following officers were elected: M. E.
Benson^ president; Dr. J. E. Pringle, |
vice-president; E. T. Irby, secretary, |
and J. J. Bryan, treasurer. Com
mittees were appointed to secure
water works and electric hgnt plants,
also an ice plant, wagon factory,
round bale cotton press and gin, or
other enterprises of a like nature.
The enthusiasm of the meeting |
reached quite a high pitch when it j
was learned from a reliable source
that the Rock Island would extend its
line from Jacksonport up Black river
on the west side to this place. It was
further learned that Mr. Bayless, a
railroad man from Missouri, had been
quietly making a preliminary survey
of the Black river valley for the past
three weeks in the interest of some
road, the name of which he refused to
divulge. Before leaving he said a
charter and right of way would soon
be applied for.

ALLEN’S MINSTRELS COMING.
A genuine old-fashioned southern
cake walk by real southern darkies.
Allen’s New Orleans Minstrels under
canvas.
This is the first Minstrel Company
in the United States to appear under
canvas. Mr. Allen is the originator
of the idea. The interior of his tent
is arranged with a mammoth stage
and scenery the same as an opera
house, but of course on a much larger
scale. Owing to the large seating
capacity of the tent, which is two
thousand, the company is enabled to.
show for the extremely low price of
15 and 25 cents, thus guaranteeing the
largest Minstrel production in the
world at the lowest price of admission.

INCENDIARIES BURN STORE.
Pocahontas, Nov. 11.—The store of
A. S. Schnabaum, at Biggers, on the
new railroad above this place, was
destroyed by fire Sunday night. Mr.
Sehnabaum’s manager, Mr. Biggers,
lives here and had come home to
spend Sunday. None of the merchan
dise was saved, as there was no one
there wh9n the fire was started. The
clerks and bookkeeper were at home
and arrived too late to do any good.
The stock of goods was purchased
only a few months ago and was valued
at $12,000. As no stove had been set
up and no one had been in the build
ing for twenty-four hours, it was
the work of an incendiary.
SMALL BARN BURNED.
Just before five o’clock Wednesday
morning, the fire department was
called to the corner of Remmel
Avenue and Elm Street, where a barn
was half consumed by the flames. The
shed contained hay and corn, which
was destroyed, but an adjoining shed
was saved by the timely arrival of the
hose cart.
The barn belonged to a negro named
Jim Ourry. The cause of the fire is
unknown. The shed is occupied by a
negro, but he is a night watchman at
the compress and was not there at the
time.
CONWAY SCOTT, JR. DEAD.
A sad death was that Monday after
noon of Conway Scott, Jr., the two
and a naif-year-old sou of Mr. and
Mrs. Conway Scott, at the country
home of his parents at Scott’s station,
about eight miles below the city. He
was the second child of Mr. and Mrs.
Scott, and was idolized by his parents,
whose numerous friends in the city
extend heartfelt sympathy. His
grandmother was Mrs. Eliza Scott,
one of the best-known residents of
this vicinity.
The funeral took place Tuesday af
ternoon and the interment was in the
private cemetery on the Scott planta
tion.—Little Rock Democrat.
PROSPECTIVE ELKS.
J. M. Berger, Jr., H. Bernstein and
Doctor J. C. Minor left on No. 3
Wednesday noon with quite a com
pany of Newport gentlemen in charge,
whom they propose to initiate into
the mysteries of Elkdom.
The following includes the party
who will become members of the
Little Rock lodge, No. 29: L. Minor,
I. Goldman, Vic Ake, Ike Bottenstein,
Alcorn Ferguson, Chas. Meyer and

MINSTEL WAS A SUCCESS.
Home Talent Company of Charcoaled
Maids, Matrons and Misters Please
Large Audience In Numerous
Specialties—Proceeds Ex
ceed Expectations.
The Newport Relief Society will
have a net balance to their credit of
ibout §175 through the minstrel en
tertainment at the opera house Tues
day evening, the total door receipts
having amounted to §231.50.
The Newport public was very gen
erous in allowing itself to be thus fi
nancially relieved, but as the enter
tainment was not only given for a
deserving cause, but met with an en
thusiastic reception from the audience,
both promoters and public are well
satisfied with the success achieved.
Those taking part were well dis
guised beneath charcoal and make
ups, that proved studies for the au-,,
dience, trying to ascertain the identi
ty of those taking part. Many min
strel celebrities were among the v
dramatis personae. Lew Dockstader \
and Billy Kersands, the end men were ^
found in the persons of George Rob
inson and J. L. Sells; Geo. Primrose
was represented in L. N. Nouss; Billy
Barlow in Holly Cobb; A1 G. Fields in
Chas. Mulheron; Geo. H. Wilson in
G. L. Grant; Ed DeRiskey in B. W.
Stainbaok; Brignolia, Joe Mallory;
Jack DeRiskey, Mr. Wharton; Chaun
eey Alcott, John Stayton; Pagnolia,
G. A. Hillhouse; Tom Johnson, Dr.
J. C. Minor; Madame Patti, Mrs. G. A.
Hillhouse; Jennie Lind, Miss Gene
Bandy; Madame Melba, Miss Nora
Glenn; Madame Sembric, Miss Mabel
Padgett.
The parts were all well taken and
while each individual number cannot
be mentioned, the whole, performance
was highly creditable to those taking .,,
part. The “Olyphant Wizards,”
Messrs, laadore Davidson and Walter
Branch made the hit of the evening in
a grotesque song and dance.
Many little personalities were in
jected, but it could hardly be called a
home talent show without a few such
jibes and jokes and as no offense was
doubtless ^y^t by these fun makers:
we trust thl^Mne will rw• ~
to any such i^
The orchestra’s accompaniments
were good, the music being in charge
of Mr. E. P. Tetwiler. The piano for
the occasion was a Schiller, furnished .
by Z. B. Reid.
