Recent Advances.

Little Rock, October 31-After conferr
ing with representatives of the more inn
portant shippers of this state today the
Arkansas railroad. commission refused
final proffer of the railroads operating

state freight rate controversy and issued
an order prohibiting the enforcement of

order would be followed by legal pro-
ceedngs asking heavy penalties as pro-
vided for by state statute.

bring suit at the first infringement of
their order.

by December 10, make interstate rates
conform with intrastate rates.

A WoMAN'S SACRIFICE.
Wife of Leper Will Go With Husband
to MoIokai.

Washington, October 31.-(Special.)-
Woman's love in it's highest sacrihcial
form will impel Mrs. John Early, wire
of the Washington leper, to accompany
him to the leper colony at Molokal,
Hawaii. She announced that If the de-
partment of justice sends him to Molo-
kai. she, her little baby boy, and the
little one soon to be born would go
with him.
If means for her a farewell to the
outside world, for once in Molokai she
would not be allowed to leave. For the
children it would mean social ostracism
from the start and the life OF a leper
camp their one outlook in life.
IT is expected that Secretary cortei-
Won. through the decision rendered by
Attorney General Bonaparte, will soon
order Early deported to Molokai.
An interesting feature will then arise
through the attitude of the various
states he must pass through on his
way to the Pacific coast. The inter-
state commerce commission will get
him safely through, however.

The world has ever SEEN It's domains
strength across the continent. from one to

exercises domination alike in the arctic
and tropical seas. It's growth in wealth

growth in territory. Nowhere else in the
world is the average of individual COM

For the very reason that in material
well being we thus abounded, we owe it
to the Almighty TO show equal progress

Is spent in piling. heap upon heap, those
things which minister merely to the pleas
ure of the body and to the power that
rests only on wealth.
Upon material well being Is foun-
daton must be raised the structure OF
the lofty life of the spirit, if this nation
is properly 10 fulfill it's great mission
and TO accomplish all that we SO ar
