Gov. Cox Talks on Flood.

Columbus, o. - Ohio has risen
from the foods. Such pitiless
blow from nature as we sustained
would have wiped out society and de-
stroyed governments in other days,
but our commonwealth, refreshed by
the tears of the American people,
stands ready to meet the crisis alone.
We cannot speak our gratitude to
President Wilson for federal aid, to
the Red Cross, to states, municipal
tiles, trade organizations and indi-
viduals, that sent funds and supplies.
They will never know their contribu.
tion to humanity.
The relief situation, so far as food
and clothing are concerned, is in
hand. The legislature has recessed
for week for the purpose of ascer-
tanning the extent OF the damage to
public works that must be repaired by
legislation. The Red Cross, acting in
concert with the state relief commits
sion, will begin movement to rehabil-
itate the homes of the poor
Thankful to her friends who sue
cored her, Ohio faces tomorrow serene
and confident.

Defeated in every court in Arkan- sas, state and federal, the objectors to the free bridge at Pine Bluff have petitioned and will secure the sub mission of the question to vote of the people at the forthcoming pri- maries. What is expected to be gain ed is not apparent, since the bridge improvement district was formed, as the law provides by petition of a majority in value of the real estate owners. and the voters have nothing at all to say Chronic obstruction tactics seem to have headquarters in Pine Bluff as every step in the free bridge project has been most bitterly fought.

nothing to be accomplished by sub mitting the Free Bridge matter to the voters of the county. What would the result be even if majority of the voters, many of whom own no property and have no voice in the matter under the special act p-ovid- ing for the Free Bridge, vote their sentiments against it? A large majority of the property owners of this county have already ydFed" by petition for the Free Bridge and the courts of the state have upheld their decision.
 The Jefferson County Democratic Central Committee members will be acting unwisely if they permit Mir. Collier to induce them to submit the matter to the voters at the coming primary election It will amount to nothing and the Free Bridge support CTS, who have already won their fight, will take no interest in the matter whatever if it is submitted. To vote for the Free Bridge would only be reiterating their majority petition which the courts have Q.
