Formulation Predictions

The croakers always have something at
hand on which to predicate dire disaster.
This time it is not the tariff, nor the drain
of gold, nor the destruction OF our indus
trial interests, nor food Of the products
of pauper labor, but the overrunning OF
population that is predicted as source OF
terrible trouble to the United States.
A disciple of the Malthusian theory is
frightening the timid with the assertion
that in hundred years the population of
the United States will be 300, OOO. OO0. The
production of food is not to keep pace
with the increase of mouths to devour
it, and so famine and distress are to fol-
low and folks are warned about these con-
sequences, for what purpose may be
easily imagined.
In the first place no confidence is to be
placed in the figures OF these calamity
prophets. And in the next place, the ca
pacity of the domain OF the United States
is sufficient for all the number named and
a great many more. Neb saska, the Da-
kotas, Texas and all the western states
and territories can find room for millions
upon millions of people, and the needful
food will be produced providing the in
crease OF population is not too rapid.
Texas alone claims to DE capable of sup
porting 20, 900 900 of population, and there
is no part of the country but is able to
stand a considerable increase.
Such alarms may be classed with the
representations about the exhausting OF
coal SO that fuel will fail, the smashing
OF the earth by comet, the falling Of this
globe into the sun, and other remote con-
tingencies, which if within the bounds OF
the possible are not very close to the
probable and are outside the limits of the
certain. The population Of the United
States is bound to increase very rapidly
but there is no present need to place vio-
lent restrictions upon it either by I'M
natural means or the stoppage of immi-
grafton.

THE RIOTS in Belgium, SO threatening
TO the public peace and even to the stabil-
ity Of the government, occur at time
when the socialists and universal SUI
fragists of Berlin and Vienna are making
extraordinary preparations for May day.
There is sufficient warningin the attitude
of affairs at Brussels and Antwerp to JUS
tify the Psussian and Austrian authors
ties to prohibit any popular assemblages
at all on that day, and it will not be sur
prising if this course is pursued.

IT Is leaking out that the jetties at the
mouth OF the Mississippi river are filling
up. The contractors are required to keep
the channel 26 feet deep Tor width of 200
feet, with central depth in the channel
OF so feet. This channel has not been
maintained throughout, and therefore
heavy reductions have been made in the
payments to the company. The ship
brokers and agents at New Orleans are
taking the matter in hand as serious
question.

"Free Coinage or Nothing. 5

Free coinage or nothing is the continual cry of the Arkansas Press. So the Press would have the factories shut down and thousands of work ingmen idle and their families cry ing for bread; it would keep the store of the merchant closed par alyze every industry of the country keep the mechanics, laborers, artl- sans, clerks and accountants idle, and prostrate all commercial affairs so that the Silver Kings of the West might grow rich and insolent by selling their silver bullion to the Treasury of the United States at handsome profits. There is no reason or logic in such a cry. It is cruel, merciless and heartless to think about paralyzing everyindus- try of the country, locking the wheels of trade and commerce, de- pressing the price of cotton and all kinds of agricultural products and keeping willing labor in want and idleness so that few silver miners can conduct prosperous business while the rest of the country shall be made to trudge, groan and suffer Is this Democracy Is this justice to the great body of the people? Is this patriotism? Is this humanity? Is this anything except the most iniquitous and heartless class legis- lation. The people cry for bread and the Press would give them a stone. The country has had enough of silver under present conditions The prosperity of the nation is be ing drowned in silver, and until our present stock of the white metal can be digested, we want no more silver. The extreme silver men, if they had their way about it, would wreck the financial interests of the country inside of forty-eight hours.

A Commercial League.

The 0fgan1Hatl0n or | C0mmefeldl League will fill Q long-felt want in this city. For years and years we have let enterprises and rare oppor- tunities go by for lack of intelligent and active cooperation. The sue cess that has attended similar organ izations in other cities is sufficient guarantee of the usefulness of Q Commercial League Every we'll organized city or town that desires to build itself up in material great ness, or that has any inducements to offer the capitalist or home-seeker should have an organization Of this kind Surrounded as Pine Bluff is with inexhaustible forests of rare and excellent timber for wood work ing purposes, situated in the heart of one of the most productive cotton growing regions in the South, with splendid shipping facilities by either railroad or river, and with a genial, healthful and salabrioas climate, there is no reason on Gods earth why it should not be one of the most thrifty and largest manufacturing cities in the South. We have both the raw material and the market right at our doors for almost any kind of Q woodworking, cotton manufacturing or canning factory, and as soon as these advantages shall become known to the world, the fu- ture of Pine Bluff will become fully assured. The capital of the East is idle for lack of remunerative employment, and the whole world is standing on tip-toe looking to the South as the most inviting field for profitable investment. What Pine Bluff needs is judicious advertising and a unity of effort1 on the part of her citizensin securing much-needed enterprises, and we can conceive of no factor more potential in that re- gard than ] Commercial League. 1t is, therefore, with much pleasure that we announce the organization of a Commercial League in this city in our local columns. As one of the speakers very happily and truthfully remarked: @If Pine Bluff had organ ized and maintained a Commercial League ten years ago we would have had a population of 0,000 today. 7" No greater truth among the many truths was spoken on that occasion, but we can find encouragement for the future from the old maxim which tells us that it is never too late to do good. ,
 The League starts out with a large and promising membership, and we hope that it will accomplish for our city the full measure of it's expectations.
