City Tests Auto Tax.
Special to the Independent.
Little Rock, Dec. 22.—A case
that will directly concern the
automobile owners of the whole
state is that of the City of Hele
na vs. J. R. Dunlap, involving
the right of a city to assess an
automobile license in addition
to the tax required by the state
law enacted by the last legisla
ture. Dunlap paid the state li
cense, and then refused to pay
the license of $5 assessed by the
$10 in police court.
He appealed to circuit court
w'hich reversed the police court,
and held the city ordinance void
and inoperative in the face of
the state law, Act 134, acts 1911.
Now the city appeals to the su
preme court. There was some
complaint at the dual license in
Little Rock, Fort Smith and
elsewhere, but no test suits were

Cured In His Own Home Town.
Little Rock, Ark., R. W. Cook,
322 Spring St., tells the way for
his fellow townsmen to be cured
of kidney and bladder trouble as
he himself was cured. “Off and
on for five years I suffered with
kidney trouble. I had a severe
pain just above my kidneys and
was troubled with a too frequent
action of the bladder. I got
some of Foley Kidney Pills for
my case, and after taking them
for a few days, the pain left my
back and the action of my kid
neys and bladder was natural!
and clear. In fact, I feel much
better than I have for years.”—
