Pine Bluff, Ark, Dec. The gov

see street, upon which the residents
of the eastern portion of this city de-
pend for protection, gave way and
the waters of the Arkansas river are
fast eating their way toward the
mouth of Hardings bayou, which
crosses the city. When the river en-
croaches a short distance farther it
will strike with full force what is
known as the East End, and because
of the nature of the soil the natural
resistance will be slight Where pos

places of safety and others are being
demolished and the lumber and fur

PLAY UP YOUR GOODS.
Attractiveness In Trade Needed to
Keep Dollars at Home.


The way to keep the boys and girls
at home is to make home attractive to
the boys and girls. The way to keep
dollars at home is to make home at
tractive to the dollars. There is no
other way.
Our local merchants should make
their trade attractive. This means
that they should play up their goods,
just as newspaper plays up story.
Goods can be played UP in many ways.
Advertising in the local paper and dis,
playing in the store window are two
good ways. Another good way is TO
make the store attractive inside and
outside. Another is to convince Gus
toners that they are getting honest
values. Still another is to have the
thing the customer wants, make him
feel that you are trying to serve him
and accommodate him and not merely
trying to benefit yourself. Yet an
other and most important of all is to
organize for the betterment of the
community, arouse public spirit and
local pride and educate the people in
the inestimable benefit to everybody
of building up their own town and
their own neighborhood.
Merchants can be the leaders in this
work. Organize local boards of trade,
town improvement societies and other
similar associations. Get people in
terested in their own community
Make them think that it is the best
community on earth, which it is to
those that live in 1t. Their concern
is here, their prosperity is here. Boom
your t1ade, boom your town, boom
your paper. boom your community.
Legitimate booming that is founded
not on inflated ideas and dishonest
methods. but on bedrock facts and
sound philosophy. never meets a back
set. 1t means permanent betterment
TO all.

TOWN WELFARE HINTS
Little Things That Need to Be
Looked After.
HOW LOCAL PAPERS CAN HELP
BY Keeping Awake Civic Pride and
Promoting Beneficial Innovations.
Care to Be Exercised In Selecting
Town Officials.

Care to Be Exercised In Selecting
Town Officials.
Local papers are wonderful instru-
ments in the progress of a town. The
editor can do much more than the
average citizen in keeping awake civic
pride and promoting innovations that
are for the good of the community.
He is the former of public opinion.
He can direct the thought channels
along right lines if he will He should
be one of the most interested citizens
in the welfare of his town. The bust
ness success of merchants and of all
interested in the place Is important to
the local editor. His own success will
ment of the general interests of the
place.
1t is often that the poor business
ability of officials of a town result in
injury to place. A city council COM
posed of "mossbacks' can keep a
town from progressing, says the Agri
cultural Southwest. Too much care
cannot be exercised by the people in
the selection of town officers. There
is no reason why the affairs of a
municipality should not be conducted
along as sound lines as are the affairs
of a successful business concern.
Few farmers realize how much their
interests are affected by the activity
of the town near which they live. Ev-
eryN farmer should be as much inter.
ested in the doings of the townspeople
as the residents of the place He is
one of the supporters of its business
institutions, its schools and its public
institutions in general, and he should
feel that the interests of the towns
people are his own interests. Too often
Just the opposite feelings are manifest.
The farmers look upon the residents of
the towns as enemies, the merchants
as bloodsuckers and a class that live
of the farmers. This is not the
case. 1t is a narrow view to take The
merchant is entitled to his small per-
centage of profit which his business af-
fords, as is the farmer to a profit from
what he produces.
The residents of community are
entitled to demand of merchants that
theyk be progressive and keep their
stoc1s up to the standard that trade
demands. Back number merchants are
a detriment to any place. Business con-
ditions are gradually changing. There
is progress all along the line, and the
merchant who fails to keep abreast of
the procession should get out of bust
ness. He is not much good to himself
and a bugaboo to the other progressive
merchants of place.
Farmers these days are the best in
formed classes. Were the farmers Of a
quarter of century ago to combat all
the problems that are to be taken into
consideration now it is doubtful wheth-
er they could succeed Farming is diff
ferent; science has become part of
agriculture, and he who does not keep
up to date must make place for the
more progressive.

A LUCKY ESCAPE.
Thrilling Experience of a CycIist on a
Swiss Mountain.

Thrilling Experience of Cyclist on a
Swiss Mountain.
A DR.. Bach was cycling down the
pass near GOschenen, in Switzerland,
when his brake snapped and the ma
chine darted forward at terrific speed.
AT the foot of the mountain is bridge
spanning a deep river gorge. The ply
sician tried to guide his flying machine
on the bridge, but the front wheel
struck side wall, and he was flung
over the parapet. While falling through
the air he caught chain hanging from
girder. The momentum of his body,
suddenly arrested, nearly wrenched his
grip loose, but he was a strong man
and kept his hold. While swinging in
midair suspended over the raging river
and unable to improve his perilous
position an automobile came chugging
down the pass. The hapless man
shouted for help, but he could not be
seen from the bridge, and his cries
were drowned by the noise Of the mo-
tor and the sound of the river A few
minutes after the automobile had pass
ed a carriage drove across the bridge.
Again he cried out for help, but in
vain. The awful strain on arms and
fingers was becoming intolerable. and
the doctor was about to drop into the
torrent to an inevitable death when
two peasants came by and saw him.
They flung a moose over him and pulled
him up. He tainted and was i'll for a
long time.-Strand Magazine.

History Of Idaho.

w. A. Goulder has completed the
first volume of his history of Idaho
and it is now in the printers hands.
The work will be of great interest not
only to the pioneers but to those who
have recently made Idaho their home
The work is compiled from the per-
sonal recollections of the author who
has passed his S7th mile stone and
is yet vigorous in mind, although
somewhat enfeebled in body. Mr..
Goulder has been resident of this
state since 1860 and has held many
positions of trust. He was a member
of two sessions of the legislature, oc-
cupying the unique position at one
time of being the only Republican in
the entire legislature. He is the Mes
tor of journalism in this state and is
known as a clear, forcible and inter
esting writer. The many friends of
Mr.. Goulder are anxious that the first
500 books be disposed of as soon as
possible. The price of the book is
$500 and can be obtained from Joseph
Perrault, or the Boise City National
Bank.

He Paid the Damages.

1t frequently happens that a news
paper in gathering the news obtains
erroneous information which casts re-
Elections unjustly on the persons men
toned I'm the news item. This was
the condition of the Tribune, when 1t
was stated that through the negligence
of the night watch. wire cable val
ued at about $4,000 was damaged to
such an extent that the loss would be
fully half that amount. The state
ment erred, in that the damage to the
cable was about $1,000 which amount
was paid by Mr.. Hodson, the night
watch. He further states that he was
the only officer in charge of Main
street on Halloween night and the
damage was done during his absence
at the extreme lower part of Main St.
and It was a physical impossibility
for him to cover the entire district al
lotted to him. The Tribune is of the
opinion that In view of the fact that
Mr.. Hodson has paid for the damage
done that he Is entitled to this expla-
nation and that be is not so much to
blame as those higher in authority
who should have supplied more help
on that particular night for his dis
trict
