DELEGATES TO THE NATIONAL
NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE.

Parties who contemplate going to
the National Negro Business League
that convenes in Little Rock, Ark.
in August, are requested to leave
their names at the Globe Office. An
effort is being made to get up a party
large enough to secure a sleeper in
order that the trip may be made in
comfort.

This statement upon the part of
the Nashville Industrial Bureau, even
when backed by the many incontro-
vertable facts that they can easily ad-
duce in support of our Slogan" will
not prove as effective upon strangers
as an intimate knowledge OF these
opportunities upon the part of the
people themselves.
Every Nashville man ought to at
once familiarize himself thoroughly
with Nashville's advantages anG
never lose a chance to exhibit this
knowledge to any stranger. Every
citizen ought to constitute himself
reservoir of Nashville facts and use
them for Nashvilles good whenever
with Nashvilies advantages and
chance permits.
1t is this home knowledge and ap-
probation that begets the spirit or
atmosphere that results in having
every shoulder to the wheel, and
makes every man much more than a
'boster'' for it and makes him an au-
thoritative encyclopedia that is Won
derfully impressive.
The first of the advantages that the
bureau points out to interested in
vestigators is this: "The cost of liv-
in is low in Nashville"
Do you know that this is fact, a
fact pregnant with enormous posi-
bilities; and why it is a fact?
Do you know that rents are lower
here for the same class of houses
than in any other city approximating
its size in the South?
Do you know that in spite of all
the talk going the rounds of the coun-
try about the greed of the meat trust,
that this same trust has never been
able to dictate prices in Nashville be-
cause of the splendid cattle-raising
country all about us and the abund-
ance and fine quality Of homegrown
meats?
Do you know that we are surround
ed by the finest truck gardening
country in the world, where complete
/ crop failures are unknown, and where
everything is grown that can be
grown anywhere else except in the
tropics? There are twenty-five diff
ferent vegetables found in our gar
dens.
Do you know that our nearness tt
the great coal fields of Western Ken
lucky and Tennessee give us a won
derful advantage over other cities il
fuel matters?
All of these statements are facts
easily demonstrated. Verify them
get them at your finger tips, tall
them over with your friends, anC
when opportunity offers, pass them OF
to some stranger or truth-seeke1
looking for place to locate.
We are fortunate possessors o
many great advantages, but they will
be worth vastly more to use when tn,
world knows about them.
Other opportunities that Nashville
offers will be mentioned in these col
umns from time to time. Watch 70

The state board of election commits,
sioners perfected reorganization and
appointed county commissioners for
all except a very few of the counties
at the meeting of the body held in
the supreme court chambers Wednes-
day afternoon. At 6 p. m. the body
adjourned until 10 o'clock Thursday
morning.
The program of the board was car
ried out as had been outlined, Leslie
M. Stratton, the choice of the regu-
lar democrats to represent their fac
ton, being elected to succeed I. B.
Tigrett, of Jackson Mr.. Tigrett was
in Nashville, but did not appear at
the meeting. There was a large num-
Der of politicians and citizens inter-
ested in the meeting present from
over the state.
A conference was held during the
morning at the Hermitage hotel be-
tween S. M Young, James Maynard
and Mr.. Tigrett, at which the last
reiterated his willingness to resign
from the board in favor of Mr..
Stratton. Mr. Tigrett's position was
that he was willing to serve if nee
essary, but preferred resigning. The
election of Mr.. Stratton by the two
members of the board makes his
place legal as there had been some
question as to the legality of his elec-
tion by the general assembly after a
quorum in the house had been broken.

CLARK ON A TAFT PLANK
CANADA BILL FAVORED BY MISSOURIAN
 IN PAN-AMERICAN SPEECH.
Auditors Were Told That in Test Vote for Immediate Consideration the President Had Won Free Trade
 With All Nations the Aim.

Washington, Feb. Is. Reef procity with Canada. with all countries of North and South America, and in fact, with all nations, was advocated by both President Taft and Champ Clark, speaker-to-be, in adresses at the opening session of the Pan American Commercial Confer ence today.
 Speeches favoring closer commercial union of North and South America. with frequent reference to the future influence of the Panama Canal, were made by MT. Knox, the Secretary of State; James A. Farrell, presi- dent of the United States Steel Corporation; .Senor Calvo. the Costa Rican minister to the Unit ed States; Senor Calderon, the Bolivian minister to the United States, and Senor Casasus. form erly the Mexican ambassador to this country.

ARIZONA IS DOOMED TO
 DEFEAT
Recall PrOvisiOnfOr Judges Is Looked Upon With Extreme DisfaVOr and Passage of Constitution Is Doubtful.

Washington, D. C., Feb. IA. The people of Arizona having ratified the constitution submit ted to them, that remarkable in- strument now goes to the presi- dent and to congress for approval While congress will have until the end of the next session to act on the matter. and the president will perhaps do nothing until that body has exercised it's pri- vilege, there can be but little doubt that the instrument is marked for executive or legisla- tive slaughter.
 When the Arizona constitution farmers inserted a provision for the recall which included judicial officers within its terms, they must have realized that they
The Holbrook news., 1911-02-17

were indulging self-assertion al
 the grave risk of long-continuec
 status as a territory.
 Probably influenced by the ac-
 tion of Oklahoma in including in
 fundamental lawpractically every
 current fad, the enabling act by
 which Arizona and New Mexico
 were granted potential statehood
 was hedged about with the pre-
 caution that it should become
 effective only when the constitu-
 tion to be adopted was approved
 by the president and positively or passively indorsed by congress
 Win this well defined threat to delay the change of the terri tory into a state, the action of the convention in recommending an instrument rivaling the novel, ties recognized by Oklahoma was more creditable to the spirit of the lawmakers than to their sense of discretion. The constitu- tion as adopted is well night cer- tain 10 fail of the necessary in- dorsement by the president. and the work, at the cost vf much time, will all have to be gone over again.
 AS to the clause particulary under attack that of the recall it is the extension of the prin- cipal rather than the principle it. self. which is specifically objec- tionable. So far as executive and l administrative officers are con- cerned, practice has seemed to show, tits alleged, that the recall does not always result in the constant and foolish elections which were urged against it, or that at times itNdoes not impose a very salutary check upon the dictator like attitude of office holders.
 In cases of suspected corrup- tion, it's friends say, it has been used with markedly good effect, as evidence the recall of a cor rupt Los Angeles mayor and the recent recall of a vice smirched mayor of Seattle. But to apply the recallto the bench. it is said, would be to take a step utterly offensive to the principle of as it is understood n the United States.
 It would constitute, in effect, a court of appeals where legal de- cisions would be reversed by bal Cts-a policy which the people of this country do not wish to in- iorse even indirectly. as they would seen to do by agreeing to 5o such provision in Arizona's

 Champ Clark, who had just

Kuhn. Loeb & Co, New York bankers, who financed the Harri- man lines, began today their long threatened war against George J. Gould for central of the Missouri Pacific, which is the holding company for the St. Louis, Iron Mountain 6 Southern Railway and the Rio Grande system, and which dominates the Western Pacific and the Texas 6 Pacific. Should Gould lose his power in the Missouri Pacific the Gould family will be eliminated almost completely from trans portation and cease to be a fact or in American finance.
 Unless there were at least a good chance of topping Gould from his throne and making him a mere subject, it is conceded that so mighty a financial es- tabljshment as Kuhn, Loeb & Go would not engage in conflict. Of the $50, GOO shares of Missouri Pacific stock Gould owrs less than 335, 900, or approximately 40 per cent, and there are about 495. 900 shares which the Eastern bank ing house may buy or acquire through proxy.
