to this time no candidate to lead the fight
has been put up by the republicans.
In Missouri, of course, there are many
districts that, it Is believed, will get back
into the democratic camp, as a matter of
course, in the re-establishment of the
normal conditions that were turned upside
down at the last congressional election.
Up to this time about one-quarter of the
nominations have been made. In New
York state, for instance, the law prescribes
that the nominations shall not be made be-
fore September 15, and in some states they
will be made two weeks later than that.

only child, Mrs. Mo, -, - !
nesday evening, May 2nd, 1919, at $50
O'Clock, aged Is years, : months and II
days, after painful illness of 3 months
and days. She was born in Washing
ton Co., Ala, Sept. 18th, 1927, her mai
den name beng Chandler. She had 8
brothers and 6 sisters, of whom only one
sister, Mrs. J. H. Brunner, Of Enter
prise, Miss, survives her. Since her
husbands death she has been declining
both mentally and physically and has
suffered untold agony, though she never
failed to put her trust in God. She
prayed until the very last and tried to
sing a song, but was too feeble. Mrs.
Carlisle was a member of the Method ist
church since she was 10 years of age,
and died in that faith. Though she had
not had the privilege of attending that
church in over 80 years, her faith could
not be shaken. She was a hard worker
and blessed with an iron constitu ton;
a faithful wife and loving mother. May
our loss be her eternal gain.

To a better world than this,

KAISER IS SATISFIED.
German Ruler Pleased With the Result of His Personal Conference With
 King Edward.

Berlin, Aug. 19.-Great satisfaction prevails at the foreign office over the results of the meeting at Fried richshof between King Edward and Emperor William. The latter has expressed himself as being highly sat isfied with the outcome of his per- sonal conferences with the king. The discussion between the monarchs in the presence of their diplomatic rep resentatives covered many political questions of interest to both countries. without aiming at reaching specific arrangements but with the view to coming to satisfactory understand ing respecting the policies pursued by the two countries.
 This was accomplished in the main, and the foreign office expects to see the Improvement in the relations be- tween them continue.

ington corresIo n lent of the Kansas
 City Star, unburdens himself of the following:
 "At that time I was Democrat; 1 I have since become politically noth-
 ing. my disgust with Democrats
 being only exceeded by my disgust
 of Republicans. If I'd stayed away
 from Washington, might have re- mained Democrat. It was those three Cleveland bond issues that up- set my politics. Also to hear that fellow August Belmont described by the administration as protecting the credit of the country stuck in my Democratic throat. It was too much an insult to one's American intelligence; too much as though some flea had been officially pro- claimed the protector of what mas tiff it infested, as reason for that illicit blood it sucked. And these people with their arms to the shoul- der in the Nations gold, called Democrats! At that my Democracy began to back for cor ner, and pull gun. It is still in the corner, still shooting, as this is penned."
 This is about the way that every | true western Democrat felt, but they 1 could not express their feelings as forcefully as Mir. Lewis has.

Fortunes.

After carefully study, it is difficult 10 find great individual wealth except as result of in- c,easing population, and hence value bestowed by the activity of the people. Mining and inveu- tions may be exceptions to this rule.
 There are men in any city in this country, and in Memphis, who have grown wealthy more rapidly without exertion than other men of large responsibility and great ability who have work cd generation on an average of twelve hours a day. The former have been real estate owners or promoters who have acquired franchises for city utilities. The land owner in growing city who has sufficient income to maintain himself and speud his time in drinking brandy, or in amuse- ment and recreation of more or less innocence or harmfulnsss, eau grow wealthier more rapidly than the merchant or banker or manufacturer who has devoted twelve hours a day during q generation. This added wealth comes from the value given to property by increasing popula- ton, and resulting increasing de- mand.
 Men in a city council in a few hours have given to an individual franchise worth several fortunes by reason of development and growth in the community in which the franchise was to oper. ate. The people have made the values. Memphis Scimiter.

 Mrs. M. L. Rogers of Hot Springs has undertaken a magnificent re- production of the famous Arkansas Traveller" to be shown for the first time at the Arkansas State Fair. This historic painting will occupy a prominent position in the Art de- pertinent of the state fair and will be of sufficient dimensions to be plainly visible from all portions of the gigantic exhibition palace.
 Mrs. Rogers is familiar with the subject, having made several noted copies of this picture, Both the subject and the artist were personally known to her parents.
 The Arkansas Traveller" was painted by a youthful artist in Little Rock, Eddie Washburn. The inspi- ration is said to have been given him by Sandy" Faulkner while relating his experience on returning from an extended journey on horseback through Old Arkansas.
 Colonel Faulkner and his white horse are the central figures so fa- mlliar in this unique picture.
 Eddie Washburn. the artist. was only seventeen when he executed this wonderful conception and died within the year. but not before tha lame of his great effort had become widespread.
