To make more effective the work of
the bureau of corporations and pave the

Governmental commissions to regulate
business interests are eminently proper
and desirable. according to the opinion of
Secretary Charles Nagel, Secretary of
Commerce and Labor. in his annual re-
port to the President, submitted today,
but the Secretary strongly dissents from
the view that they should be permitted to
fix prices.
The report declares that the self-regu-
latiOn of business to the greatest extent
consistent with the public welfare should
be the guiding principle in the enactment
of legislation upon the subject. 1t rec
OmmendS, also. that the bureau of cor
porations Of the department be author
lied to assist federal courts in reOrgan-
iZing concerns dissolved under the Sher-
man antitrust law.
1t suggests the creation of an arbitra-
ton board to settle railroad labor dis
putes; approves an International confer
ence to secure greater safety of life at
sea: raises the question whether the
United States government should take
over all Seacoast wireless stations and
recommends the repeal of the law for the
fve-year closed season for sealing in
Alaska.
Real Desideratum in Legislation.
Epitomizing his doctrine for governl-
mental supervision of business, Secretary
Instead of pressing federal regulation
as far as possible. the real desideratum
in legislation affecting the country's bust
ness should be to preserve, to the great
est extent consistent with the public
welfare. the element Of self-regulation.
The effort should be to lay down prin-
ciples OF conduct sufficiently specific to
impose desired restraints, at the same
time leaving wide field for individual
achievement.
If such trade commission is we'll de-
fined, the Secretary says, lit may serve
the general purpose of giving large indus
trial and commercial concerns much need
ed federal authority and control. 1t is
possible by lodging in the commission
Well defined discretion an intelligent pur-
pose may be served. But the obvious dan
ger is that such a commission, once
created. will soon be vested with further
powers. The disposition will undoubtedly
be to give it authority to fix prices and
conditions of operation. similar to that
which the interstate commerce commits
sion now exercises with respect to rail-
roads and their rates. In other words
there is strong tendency to disregard
the fundamental distinction between a
public carrier and a private enterprise"
At the outset at least, in the Judgment
of Mr.. Nagel. the general powers and the
degree of discretion of the commission
should be carefully restricted.

CRITICAL STAGE IN
 CAMPAIGN PASSED

Little Rock, March 1.-The last day of February put Little Rock on the map iudustrially. The critical stage in the Mil. lion Dollar Campaign was safely passed, and the contracts which would have expired by limita. tion by 6p. m. Thursday were bound hard and fast. The rally ing luncheon at the Marion prov ed to be a jubilee instead of a funeral, and renewed life and vigor were instilled into all pres ent.
 The beginning of the week saw only $147.675 in contracts to buy real estate, based upon the con, dition that they would be auto. matically cancelled by 6 D. m. Thursday, unless the total reach. ed $200,000. The committee again got busy and canvassed the city thoroughly. At h e Thursday luncheon the reported $43, 400 more. The most active committee from the begginning was that of. which ". w. Dickin. son was chairman, having secur- ed a total of $30,375 in contracts Q buy. Had all committees been approximately active, t h CT e would have been raised a total of S600,000.
 But the Count was still abou $l0,000 short ard thirty seven men each pledged $500, bringing the total to about S202,OOO. The money to be derived from the sales will now be turned into the industrial fund, and the boosters will work for the remaining $8O0,. GOO as rapidly as possible The work has been done through the indefatigable efforts of Carl J. Baer, and many other cities, at tracted by his qualities as a booster, are bidding for his ser vices, but will be unable to get him.

UNIVERSITY BOARD IN SESSION TODAY

Today and tomorrow are the |critical days in the university Itrike at Fayetteville. T h e |poard is in session there today, hovinc been called together from |all parts of the state in emergent |conference. The student body Lontinues out and the faculty is |eoually persistent in the main |tenance of their position.
 Attorney General Norwood held a long distance telephon e with his son, one of hbe striking students, Thursday Afternoon, and he reported that |no students were attending |classes. Breakfast was served lon the campus at 7:S0 o'clock and during the day there had been orderly demonstrations, with speeches by both boys and girls. It had been announced by President Tillman that all stu |dents who failed to report Thurs. |day morning would be expelled, but this did not move them. They were standing by thelr |colors, and no orders had been
 issued by the faculty, pending

Our Duty tO'0ur Own.

A certain obligation is inher- ent in the mere fact of posses sion. If man owns horse, it is his duty, as welll as to his in terest, to see that the horse is well cared for. Propery rights are synonymous with property obligations. The man or woman who owns large tracts of land in any given community owes to it certain duties, which cannot be wholly covered by taxation; The old feudal system was founded upon great truth and "noblesse oblige" is still the great motto of all who recognize the obligation which is inherent with power, whether.that power comes from knowledge, wealth, position or from any other source.
 The National Woman's Chris tian Temperance Union owns and controls it's two official organs, The Union Signal" and "The Young Crusader" What follows as a necessary corollary O. this statement? That we are under obligations to these papers and to the great Constituency which has share in their ownership. It is the duty of every woman who wears the white ribbon to do her part towards making our possessions a credit to our So- ciety and a blessing to the world.
 Surely that seems a simple proposition and those which log ically succeed it are equally sim pie. We can perform our duty toward our official organs only as we give them proper support. We can give them proper sup, port only as we ourselves become subscribers, as we take and read and then do our utmost to innu. ence others to take and read our papers. If we fail to do this we are failing in a manifest duty. Would we let our own children starve or go without adequate clothing? But The Union Sig nal" and The Young Crusader" are the children of the Women's Christian Temperance Union. If we do not provide for their needs who will? If we do not take an interest in extending their inhu- ence, who can? Is it not as true of these children of the brain and heart, as of children of flesh and blood that If any man provide not for his own he has denied the faith and is worse than unfaith- l ful ?"
