In your first example, you're applying the style to the <li> tags. In
your second example, you're applying it to the <ul> tag. Try this:

<ul class="smalltext">
<li class="leftindentlist">•The first line.</li>
<li class="leftindentlist">•The second line.</li>
<li class="leftindentlist">•The third line.</li>
<li class="leftindentlist">•The fourth line.</li>
</ul>
