CHINA LAUNCHES
RAILWAY SCHEME
GOVERNMENT AUTHORIZES SUN
TO TAKE STEPS TO BUILD
RAIL SYSTEM.
TO COVER 10000 MILES.
Foreigners to Participate In Building.
Terms Of New Loan to China
include Establishment r..
Of q Bank.

Pekin, Sept. 13-The project for
great scheme Of Chinese railways
which holds the foremost place in DR..
Sun Vat Sens program for the mod
ernization Of China has commanded
the support Of the Pekin government
and may involve q great extension Of
the privileges Of foreigners in the
country, with possibilities Of an i'm.
mense increase in China's foreign
trade.
The government has authorized DR..
Sun Vat Sen to establish corpora.
ton to carry out system of national
railroads covering territory 10000
miles in extent.
Mixed Chinese and foreign com.
panies will be granted concessions
throughout China proper for periods
Of about 40 years. after which time the
lines are to revert to China.
Similar concessions are to be given
to foreigners for the intermediate dis.
tricts, but the railroads in the frontier
provinces will he under exclusively
Chinese control and will be financed
other railroads.
DR.. Sun Vat Sens proposals. which,
however, are thus far without govern
ment sanction. include the opening of
the whole of China proper to foreign
residence enterprise, foreigners to be
amenable to Chinese laws through spe.
cial courts.
Big Loan Launched.
The French, German and American
banks will participate with Lloyd's
bank in the new loan to China of $780,
100000, the agreement for which re-
Gently was signed. The terms of this
agreement include the starting of q
bank having It's head office in Lon.
don with a prominent English flnan.
cier as chairman of the board of di.
rectors and subordinate board at
Pekin.
The bank is to be capitalized at
S10,000,000, half of which will be sub
scribed by Chinese.
President Yuan Shi Kai proposes to
give DR.. Sun Vat Sen 10000 taels
($20,00O) monthly to promote his
scheme of railways throughout China
and the provisional assembly is ex.
pected to agree to this. Dr. Sun pro.
poses to borrow abroad giving the rail
ways as security, until the profits will
pay the loans, whereupon the lines
will become government property.
This Is considered a clever political
move, for, while many sections of the
country distrust Yuan Shi Kai, recog.
nizing only his capability. Sun Vat
Sen is popular hero, who is most
| likely to persuade the nation to &C.
cept foreign railway loans. which
were. actually the cause of the late
revolution.
Supervision Demanded.
Washington. - The State Depart.
ment received word from American
Minister Calhoun at Picking that the
reported $50,0O0,O0O loan was being
investigated by the foreign ministers
there.
1t was inferred at the State Depart.
ment that conditions in the contract
must bring 1t within the broad terms
which the six powers have laid down
as essential to the conclusion of any
loan to the Chinese government.
London.-One Of the principals con.
cerned in the Chinese loan said In an
interview that Dr. Sun Vat Sens rail.
way project had no connection with
the loan.

TO BURN S6I,8l4.54
IN COUNTY WARRANTS

A pre-hiloday Fourth of July bon
fire will be held at the courthouse late
this afternoon, when the board of
commissioners of county accounts,
will, in the presence of the county
judge, burn redeemed county and
school warrants aggregating $61,-
814.54. OF this amount 3,561.S
are school warrants paid by the
treasurer during the past year and
SlS,252.70 is county scrip redeemed
during the year.
The commissioners, Justice j. P
Lane of Guy, F. NJ Morgan and G
W. Adkisson of Conway, completed
their labors this morning and filed
their report with the court. They
stated that they found all of the off
GERS accounts correct and the records
in excellent condition. The retiring
county clerk, j, H. Bailey, was espe-
cially complimented on the condition
of his books and accounts.

HIGH BOARD RATE
WILL HURT SCHOOLS
IF S18 A MONTH is DEMANDED
ATTENDANCE WILL BE
CUT DOWN.

Prospects for greatly increased at
tendance at both Hendrix College and
the State Normal next fall are likely
to be destroyed if movement among
clearinghouse keepers to raise the
rate for students board to S18 a
month is adopted, according to Off
cials of the schools. The rate for
board has been increased several
tunes in recent years until SIS
month was charged to students prac-
tically everywhere during the past
session. 1t is stated now that those
who have been keeping boarders are
planning to increase the rate to $18,
claiming there is no profit to be made
at the $15 price.
The people of Conway could adopt
no more certain means of killing the
Normal than to ra.se the rate for
students board to $1S," said Presi-
dent j. j. Doyne today. 1.-The high
est rate charged for private board to
students in the state is $3.50 a
month at Fayetteville. In other To-
calities as low as $40 month is
charged. At Valparaiso University,
the largest normal school in the Unit
ed States, the advertised rate for stu
dents board is $1.70 to $2.75 a week"
President Doyne said that several
of the summer students at the Nor
NAL, in endeavoring to secure board
ing places for the regular session,
had been told the rate would be SIS.
"The great majority of the students
cannot afford to pay this rate" said
Mr.. Doyne, "and to exact it would be
simply to drive the students to
schools in other towns"
President Doyne requests that all
who are willing to accept boarders at
the rates prevailing last year shall
notify him at once. A list of these
places will be made up and students
who are now making reservations for
the coming session will be assigned
to them as their applications are re-
ceived.

GOV. MARSHALlf0R

DEMOCRATS HARMONIOUS
c o NJ P L f T E TICKET ADOPT
PLATFORM AND END LONG
CONVENTION.

Baltimore, July 3.-For president
Woodrow Wilson of New
Jersey.
For vice president-Governor Thos.
r. Marshall of Indiana.
This was the ticket completed by
the Democratic national convention
at 1856 o'clock this morning. The
nomination Of Governor Marshall for
vice president came partially as a
surprise, for when the nights ballot
ing for vice president began it seem
ed that the Bryan Wilson contingent
in the convention had settled definite
" upon Governor John Z. Burke of
North Dakota.
There was not much of a fight,
however, and when two ballots dis
closed Marshall easily in the lead
Governor Burke's name was with
drawn and Marshall was proclaimed
the nominee by acclamation. A min
ute later the convention had adjourn
ed spne die
Governor Wilson was nominated at
the afternoon session on the forty
slXth ballot and his nomination. like
that Of Governor Marshalls tonight.
was quickly made unanimous.
The best OF feel ng pervaded both
sessions.
Mr.. Bryan had announced his in
tention of introducing a resolution in
effect diseharging the national COM
mittee from the conduct of the com
ing campaign and allowing Governor
Wilson to appoint his own campaign
comm ttee. He was dssuaded from
this course, and instead of making a
move that might have stirred up
strife, ne made a little speecr which
he termed his "valedictory" and in
happy mood turned over the mantle
Of his former leadership as a presi-
Dental candidate to Governor Wilson.
He pledged his faithful support to
by urging that either Governor Burke
or Senator George Chamberlain of
Oregon he nominated vice president.
The Nebraskan was understood par
ticularIy to favor Governor Burke as
a type of the modern progressive.
The platform, hewn out in commit
tee several days ago and warmly
praised by Mr.. Bryan, was adopted
with a whoop.
At the end of the long bitter fight
members of the convention reunited
and We're unanimous in predicting
success for the ticket. Bryan was es-
pecially well pleased, issuing a state
ment in which he predicted Demo
cratic majority of two million in No
vember.
All of the defeated candidates is
sued manly statements, pledging
their support to the nominee.
