the measure were that of borrowing

stitutional, but concciving the object of
this clause to be that of enabling the
government to perform Its functions in
time of emergency. he contended that
this measure would not justify the con-
tention made under this clause
He said he would not affront the In
telllgence of his colleagues or disoredlt
his own candor by saying that he be-
lieved any one would vote for the bill
with the idea that 1t was intended to
enable the government to raise money
under the borrowing provision. He also
entered upon extended arguments TO
prove that the measure was not JUS
titled, either under the postoffice clause
or the money coming clause of the Con-
stltution.
II custom houses were as numerous
as postoffices said Senator Bailey, they
would have been as apt to be chosen
for this business The business it was
proposed. was purely fiscal operation,
he declared. and made no pTetense OF
any connection with the operations
of the postal service He contended that
the private citizen had right to do
with money as he pleased as he had
with any other property.
IF you can bring money from its
hiding place In one way you can in an
other" he said. You have just as
much power to compel the citizen to
supply money by threatening him with
punishment as you have to tempt him
by guaranteeing to him a profit on 1t.
II you can employ premium you can
employ a penalty. You have no moro
right to prescribe what citizen shall
do with his money that you have to
say what he shall do with his land"
He then attempted to show that the
purpose of the bill was to encourage
economy and thrift, and he quoted the
message of President Roosevelt of 1907.

In this connection no referred to tho
future possibility of bank legislation
and said that this intrusion of the gov
ernment into affairs of the people soon
would be followed by the intrusion of

Entering then upon a discussion OF
tho abstract rights OF citizenship Mr.
Bailey declared IL WAS a libel to say
that people could not take care of their
money and only through struggle and
suffering could strong people be de-
veloped. He oontended that people
must learn to take the chances and
stand upon their own responsibility in
business affairs.

Rev. Culpeppef Comes ffcm Georgia With Forceful
 Message for Sinners.
TO PREACH IN TENT
Has Been in EynngcIistic Work for Many Iears-Many Preachers
 To Assist Him.

Beginning today the Metho list churches of Pine Bluff will inaugur- ate an evangelistic campaign under the leadership oi Rev. J. B. Culpnpoar of Georgia, one of the most famous e.angelists in the Southern Methodist en'.rch. Union services are to be conducted in large tent at Seventh asrrue and Main street All the preachers in Pine Bluff will parti- eipate in the great meeting from time to time and the evangelistic cam- raign will be conducted throughout rlGnths.
 Reverend Culpepper has been en- gagged in evangelistic work for number of years throughout the south and his ministry has been peculiarly blessed. He is man of strong per- sonal magnetism, deep piety and great force as a preacher His son, Rev. Burk Culpepper, directs the singing iil all of his fathers evangelistic campaigns.
 At 8 meeting of the District stew ards, held some weeks ago, the mot tc: "A Thousand Additions by Pro- fession of Faith and Collections in Full was adopted.
 Rev. J. D. Hammons presiding e. der of the Pine Bluff district, in lis. cussing the great revival yesterday, said:
 called upon to name the man ill the United States who has been instru- mental in saving the largest number of souls I would name Jno. E. Gull pepper.
 While this meeting has been plan ned by the four Methodist churches of Pine Bluff, it is urged that every Christian in the city join hands in this campaign. The chief aim is the the salvaton of men and women and not the establishing of any particular creed. If you can join forces with such an end in view, you are cor djally invited to make yourself at home in these meetings. There is enough of sin in Pine Bluff to demand all the time and attention of Chris tian workers, and the petty differ ences of denominations should be forgotten in the all absorbing ques- tion of salvation.

 Like, begets like. Somehow people flock where there's a crowd and eag- erly press their way into the front to see what's going on. if nothing more.
 But, on this particular day people flccked to the front to get a first chance at the bargains displayed and seemed to enjoy buying Mems and Boys wearables as much as they ex- hibit when enthusiastically buying bargains in dry goods, etc.
 Somehow men learn their economy lesson from women, after all. It's in stinctively part of woman's make up to seek values and in cases like Simon's Dump Sale women come tc the front
 And women were certainly in the lineup yesterday, and buying, too

 Simons advertise to continue this Sale until July ?, but contend that the really smart buyer will get the advantage of the Dump Sale in the first few days, as the stock will not be so broken up.
 But no matter how much is said or how many more days crowds will flock to the Dump Sale, we reiterate our congratulations for the great crowds attracted yesterday.

STREET SWEEPER
 IS A DEPARTMENT To Public Health, Says w. l.. Cosper, of Anti Huber
 culosis Exhibit
METHOD A SURPRISE
Pine Bluff Not Far Enough Advanced in Sanitary Methods-How City
 Streets are Swept.

The old rickety street sweeper is still the hobby of the city officials
 and still the monster of the thorouS', fares and the enemy of the people, l Nothing has been attempted nothing done. In the same old indiscrimin-
 ate way the downtown streets are
 still swept by the machine. The dust has not reconciled. It still rises in the path of the old sweeper, annoy
 ing pedestrians and filling the busi- ness section with impure air.
 It cannot be that our city officials
 fail to note the nuisance, for mere
 stranger in the city first remarks that sanitary condition are strangely out of keeping with the progressive of the
 city. The city is materially adyanc- ing; progressing ill rapid strides. talk ing on metropolitan ideas from a business standpoint.
 Walter L. Cosper, an expert on tub erculosis and manager of the free eX- hibit now being conducted at Mo- 40S Main street had his first sight of the street sweeping process in the city Friday night T was really surpris- ed," said MT. Cosper In speaking of the sweeping methods, MT. Cosper
 said ''there is not the slightest doubt that the work of spreading germs in the air is through the present meth
 eds is harmful to public health. All the germs in the dust are carried :n- to the air by this sweeping process,
 sad Mr. Cosper.
 Mir. Cosper talked of the stree sweeper in unspeakable terms, but not in a way cr;ticising the city off cials, for he says that often the 'len who have the power would act if the
 funds on hand were sufficient. The
 method could be greatly improved ill
 sanitation," said MT. Cosper, by tic nse of sprinklers before the sweeping mac hine was used' Mir. Cosper was asSed about cities the size of Pine
 1;luft. which he had visited during bis travels with his exhibition Most of the cities are taking on the metro- politan street sweeping ideas used m the larger cities, but of course on scale adapted to their funds. Many cities have a process of flushing tae ST etts to remove the dust and dirt,
 while others larger than Pine Bluff use the street sweeper, but dust is thoroughly saturated before the sweeper Is used. The city Of Den yer, Col, employs sweeping na- chimes in cleaning the streets, but in-
 stead of the unhealthful dust, aEic! sweeping, the street has refreshed
 odor on account of the sprinkling ma terial used in sweeping them.
 Nothing can be more injurious to health than the germs from the streets pitched into the faces of ped estrians. Germs of all disease are in the streets, and they do not die at
