to improving the quality of their herds. Conditions in this State are ideal for the production of cheap pork, and Arkansas should rank among the leading swine States. We note that the Nation al Feeders and Breeders Show at Fort Worth, Texas, March 13 to Is, is offering big premiums to hog raisers, and Arkansas ought to get in the contest and capture some of that money. A single hog may win S275, if a Duroc- Jersey; S250, if Berkshire; S195, if Poland-China, and S175 if a Tamworth. We would be proud to record the fact, later on, that an Arkansas farmer had brought some of this money home.

IRISH STRIKE RJINOCS.
Support by Railway Servants Organiza
ton . had Blow to Cnionism.

Special Cable Despatch TO THE sun.
LONDON. Sept. est ID subject Of
genuine regret to many real friends OF
trade unionism that the executive COM
mittee Of the Amalgamated Society Of
Railway Servants has taken no vigorous
steps to suppress the absurd strike on
the Irish railways. The fact that instead
Of doing this they have proclaimed a
general strike has done more than any
thing else to justify the view Of the rail-
road directors and managers that recog-
milton of the unions is impossible.
There seems to be an entire lack of SYM
pathy on the part Of the Irish people
with the artless and unjustifiable action
of the strikers. which would merely be
ludicrous hut for it's disastrous con-
sequences. Even the most extreme sec
tions Of the radical press deplore the
strike.
1reland's big export trade with Eng
land in foodstuffs is practically at a stand
still. Live stock and many thousands
OF poultry are starving to death on the
| railway sidings. Farm produce is rotting
in the trains. while remote villages are
sending out appeals for food Forty
head carrying Irish produce to the great
towns Of England, and this traffic has
entirely ceased.
All Of this calamity was started by two
men refusingltolhandle the timber shipped
by firm that had dispute with its en-
ployees. lnasmuch as the railroads are
obliged to accept goods without discrim-
ination. il is recognized that the Anal
gamated society has greatly weakened
Its own position by upholding the strike.
Emphasis is laid upon this by the fact
that the general strike order which was
promulgated on Thursday has not been
followed by an appreciable addition TO
the numbers Of the strikers Less than
hundred additional men have come out
up to this time, though it is feared that the
strike may spread unless the authorities
give greater protection to the compan anies.
With this it seems that the companies
should be able to maintain practically a
full service
