JAPANESE NAVY
 TO WELCOME FLEET
Their Booming Guns Will Carry a Message of Friendship Instead of
 One of War.

fokio, Sept. 16.-Drawn up in bat tie array, their big guns in instant readiness to belch forth death and de- Struction, the warships of Japan will assemble just month from today to welcome the American fleet. As the great vessels floating the Stars and Stripe steam into Yokohama harbor the following day, every ship in the long battle line of Nippon's navy will boom forth a thunderOus salute. But no shells will shriek across the water, and the booming of Japanese guns will carry a message of friendship ih stead of marking the unleashing of the dogs of war.
 Officials of the Japanese navy de- partment declare that the spectacle Of the mighty fleet from the West being welcomed by the greatest fleet ever assembled in the East will be the most remarkable naval display, in time of peace that the world has ever known.
 All of the ships of the Japanese navy are now gathering at the various stations for maneuvers, the most elab- crate ever undertaken in the Orient, and the welcome to the American fleet will come as the climax of the months naval activities.
 Practically all of the important vessels in the mikado's navy will take part in the maneuvers and the sub sequent welcome to the American fleet.

Jonesboro, Sept. 16.-Farmers in the city today from the east bottoms say the cotton night rider situation lis becoming more serious every day,
 William Craddock, a well known man of Northeast Arkansas, being a real estate dealer, large land owner. a leading politician and a mercAl1t Of Lake City, on opening the front door of his residence Monday morning found a bundle of switches, three iS- caliber cartridges, several matches and note, which read:
 MT. William Craddock-Dear Sir: We mean to be square with yon and hereby warn you not to attempt to rent your farm land next year for more than $4, or you will hear from us later. THE NIGHT RIDERS.
 The ginners, cotton buyers and eth CT business men are greatly alarmed over the situation, and it is thought will take some steps toward quelling the laWless element.
 Now comes the report that ia, nl2rs IF Southeast Missouri, and Clay and Greene counties, are organizing and will demand a cotton acreage reGn = ton for next year, reduce the price of the land and hold this years crop for the minimum price set by the interna- tional body in Fort Worth.
 J. B. Lewis, former president of the Arkansas State Union, said today :. IT know only what I have heard, but don't put much confidence in the re- port. Last year, and also this year, the farmers have been discontented over the results of the National Cn- l ion. I'm sure the county O. state officials wouldn't endorse such a move"
 It is evident that a great many bales of cotton from the eastern dis Itricts are being held back on this ac- count, and the general sentiment w.5a the greatest majority of the ia lsers is with the riders.

 nany outside the state, says the Ar kka1sas Democrat. One of the first =telegrams he received was from Gov. EC. x. Haskell of Oklahoma who is now in Illinois. Governor Donaghey spent the most of the day listening 1 to the returns. and much pleasure was derived from the flattering reports as they came in. He will probably return to Little Rock today to close up his campaign affairs and start in on a national campaign to rouse the people to the necessity of giving Bryan a large majority in Arkansas.
 Reading in the press reports of the narrow escape of Obediah Gardner, Democratic gubernatorial nominee in Maine, from being elected, cutting the usual Republican majority of 25,OoO or 30,O00 there to 5000, Governor elect Donaghey sent message of con- graduation to Mr. Gardner, saying the vote in the gubernatorial race was the greatest thing which ever happened north of the Mason and Dixon line, aA showing the people in that section were aroused, was but foreboding that Bryan will carry Maine in the national election

the rabbi s commands be executed !
Rabbi Ishmael gained the day his ex-
sage for the observance of the law,
and must be placed upon the same
moral plane.
Although the rabbis say, "Who
teaches no trade to his son teaches
him to steal, " different views OBJ
tained among them on the question of
uniting study and labor. The general
ethical principle was laid down that
not theory but practice was the chief
requisite, as they wished

But it was held by some. for eX-

ever, were wiser and not less revercnt

one of Tennyson Sir Galahead,

The older rabbis not only preached
the blessings of industry. but they be-
longed largely to the industrial class

aptly illustrated in the incident told
of Abnemos. the weaver. who asked
