GREAT RESOURCES OF
WHITE RIVER COUNTRY
Staff Correspondent of the St. Louis
Republic Tells of the Great
ness of Arkansas.
E. O. Phillips, a staff corres
pondent of the St. Louis Repub
lic, has been touring' Arkansas and
telling the world something of our
boundless resources through the
columns of that paper. A recent
three column article sent in from
Yellville tells of the wonderful re
sources along the White river
country, and this new branch of
the great Iron Mountain system
of railroads.
The following paragraphs are
clipped from his elaborate write
up:
When Mr. George J. Gould was
figuring on building a railroad
through the White River Valley,
with the ultimate idea of connect
ing his Western lines with the
Southeast by way of Memphis, he
rightly conjectured that the un
touched resources of the tributary
country would eventually pay the
freight for the road’s construc
tion.
lie also took cognizance of the
repeated rumors that there was
vast mineral wealth in the regions
which the new road would touch.
For many years there were whis
pers of the lead and the zinc, and
many other brands of mineral ly
ing dormant in that particular por
tion of the Ozarks.
When the road was being pro
jected Mr. Gould determined to
find out for himself the worth of
the stories. He sent three distinct
parties into Northwestern Arkan
sas and Southwestern Missouri,
through the countries lying be
tween Carthage, Mo., and Yell
ville, Ark.
In the parties were geological
experts, mining engineers and ex
plorers, who were capable of mak
ing a just estimate of the condition
of affairs, geologically and miner
alogically speaking. Neither of
the parties knew that either of the
others were out for the same pur
pose, but the reports of the trio of
investigators agreed in every de
tail, and at the present time there
is no mineral land which can be
purchased and the tales of an “Ar
kansas Joplin” are reaching the
headquarters of the lead and zinc
magnates. Their gist is of such
surprising nature that theories of
supply and demand are being
quietly, but certainly, revised.
GREAT GOAL BEDS.
What is necessary to the newer
Arkansas district is coal in quant
ities sufficient to permit of the
smelting of the ore at a profit.
There is undoubtedly coal in the
adjacent territory.
Experts believe that one of the
greatest coal beds yet to be dis
covered lies in this vicinity, but
so far there have been no impor
tant strikes made which reveal the
necessary fuel.
MANY PROMISING TOWNS.
The little towns which have
been originated by the railroad
are feeling already the result of
the reopening of the mining indus
try. The Iron Mountain’s White
River line is not yet in thorough
operation, having quite a stretch
of track to complete before imme
diate connection is given to Car
thage and Joplin and the smelters.
Vet, in the half dozen promising
villages which have sprung up
there is the foundation for a sub
stantial growth, which is only
awaiting the advent of capital to
work the mines.
The more optimistic see in the
near future a rush to the region
which will outrival Joplin when
the discovery of lead and zinc was
| made at that locality.
POULTRY RAISER’S PARADISE.
Rack from the railroad, except
for the scattered clearings, it is all
one forest, not of heavy, massive
growth, but of hardwood timber,
| straight and of quality which is to
; make of the timber industry in
! this particular section of the State
a business of vast importance.
They do not have the Missouri
hen down in this country, but
there is a full sister to that fam
jous strain of poultry. She is the
; Arkansas hen, and she is slowly
but steadily achieving a reputa
tion for herself winch reflects
■credit upon her family connections
J across the State line.
This is without doubt a splendid
country for the poultry business,
and there is many a poultry farm
1 er scattered along the railway
where one year ago there was
j nothing but virgin forest.
In stacking of the mineral re
sources omission must not be made
of the limestone and marble which
crops out every mile or so along
the White River. At Batesviile
the marble industry takes the
greatest importance.
In a l>ed which is believed to be
practically inexhaustible is found
a grade of pure white marble,
which is not exactly marble, but a
peculiarly hardened limestone,
which makes one of the best
building stones now in use.
The Xew State Capitol at Little j
Rock is being constructed of the i
Batesviile marble. Eighty-five!
carloads have been shipped in the "I
last two months to Fort leaven
worth, Ivan., where it is being us
ed in the building of the new Fed-;
eral Penitentiary. This shipment!
is but the first very small install
ment of the quantity which will be
demanded by the Leavenworth au
thorities
Izard county blue limestone,
Sycamore sandstone and Eureka
shale are names known to the
: building trade and represent stone
found in abundance all through
! the river valley.
ARKANSAS MARBLE IN THE
WASHINGTON MONUMENT.
A block of the mottled marble
was quarried by pioneer citizens
of Newton county, hauled sixty j
miles by oxen to Clarksville and i
sent thence by water to Washing
ton, where it represents the State ;
of Arkansas in the Washington
Monument.
HILL BILLIES ARE NOT
IGNORAMUSES.
As a class the hill-dwellers,
whom Governor Jeff Davis de- i
lights to denominate his “hill-bill-'
: ies” and “rednecks” are not as
ignorant as they have been depict
ed.
On the contrary, they are of a
5 sturdy stock, who have been but
waiting the coming of an advanc
ed civilization to put them on the
same plane with their more fortu
nate fellow-citizens, and in some
respects to outstrip the older class
es after a brief assimilation of new
methods of the business of living.
A Creeping Death.
Blood poison creeps up to
wards the heart, causing deat h. .1.

injured his hand, which ^welled
up like blood poisoning. Buck

saved his life. Best in the world

SIX LIVES LOST IN
HOT SPRINGS FIRE
Two Story Frame Hotel Burned.
Thursday Night and Six
Guests Perished.
Hot Springs, Oct. 27.—The.
worst hotel fire in local history
occurred early this morning, when
the Railroad Men’s hotel, located
a block below the Iron Mountain
depot on Elm street, was destroy
ed.
When the tire was gotten under
control six chared bodies were
found in the ruins and at the in
quest this afternoon were identi
fied as follows:
A. L. Mann, railroad conductor,
Denver, Colo.
Mrs. M. Mack, Hot Springs.
Ed Snyder, hotel porter.
Harry Bradley, Tacoma, Wash.
John McLeon, Austin, Texas.
The structure was two-story
frame and the flames spread rapid
ly, cutting off excape by the hall
way both up and down stairs. The
creaking and falling timbers awak
ened Steve Malcolm, proprietor,
who gave the alarm to his sleei»
ing guests the best he could.
All who escaped being cut off
jumped out of the second story
windows, and three were injured
in this manner.
The tire department searched
the ruins for other victims, but no
more were discovered.
Mrs. Mack came to the window
and was told to jump, bat refused
and perished.
Three of the bodies were burned
almost beyond recognition, and
the six bodies laid out at the
morgue were a sickening specta
cle, which was viewed by hun
dreds of people.
Malcolm did not keep a regis
ter, but states he lodged thirty
live people last night, many being
cripples and invalids in reduced
circumstances.
The tire is thought to have been
caused by a lamp explosion, but
incendiarism is suspected.
Those who escaped were housed
at the city hall alter the lire, until
clothing could be provided, none
having had time to get even wear
ing apparel ,
