TWO FUTURIsT AUNTIEs.
(From Lippincott's Sd


Among the bewildered and in some
cases indignant spectators gathered at
the recent futurist exhibition of paint
ing and sculpture in Chicago was a
young man from Springfield, in charge
of a cousin who is strong for" the
new movement in art.
The youth remained silent during
the view and the subsequent explana-
tions of the new idea given him by his
cousin.
Well" said the latter finally, ''you
don't seem particularly enthusiastic
about them. What do you think ?"
Think" growled the youth from
Springfield. why, I've got two aunts

Refuses Company Permit.

Special to Independent.
Little Rock, Aug. 9.-The Blue
Sky law, which was passed by
the last legislature to protect
the people of Arkansas against
persons and corporations who
had worthless stock for sale, is
far reaching in it's provisions, as
shown by the declination of j.
J. Beavers, who has charge OF
this work in the Office of the
State Auditor, to permit an Ok
lahoma concern to do business in
this state.
The Oklahoma concern filed a
statement which was everything
that could be asked, and an eX-
cellent showing Of the stock the
concern desired to sell in Arkan-
sas was a favorable one. 1t
was too favorable to suit Capt.
Beavers. He then wrote the OF
ficers of the company that their
statement looked good on It's
face, but he was still not salts
fed, and he would only grant the
permit after an employee of the
department had gone over the
books of the concern. He stated
that if the company would pay
the expenses of the department
expert to make the trip to ok
lahoma, and the books sustained
the favorable showing OF the
statement, he would be pleased
to issue the permit, otherwise ne
would be compelled to prevent
the company doing business IN
Arkansas.

Issued Only Fifteen Pardons.

Special to Independent.
Little Rock, Aug. 8.-Acting
Governor Futrell was about the
stingiest chief executive, the as
suance of pardons being consid-
cred, the State of Arkansas ever
had. In the five months he held
the office he issued fifteen par
dons, only two of which were
outright. The balance were con-
diticnal upon the continued good
behavior of the convict.
By this method Governor Flu
trell has robbed several towns Of
the state of their best liquor sell
ing talent. He has either re-
formed them, or they will go
back to prison to serve out long
sentences.
Of the fifteen pardons issued
by Governor Futrell between A
pril 16 and July Z, four were to
liquor peddlers. They had all
served a good portion of their
sentences when the pardon was
issued, with the understanding
that if they ever again violated
the state laws, back they go to
the prison walls. The promise
of these men to obey the law is
counted for more than the pun
ishment would have resulted in,
had they been forced to complete
their sentences.
Six of the pardons were grant
ed boys, all signing an agree
ment to go and sin no more. This
gives the boys a chance to enter
the world and regain the repu.
tation they have lost. All were
model prisoners.
One forger was pardoned. One
man was pardoned in order that
he might receive back a fine he
had paid for violating a law
which was declared unconstitu-
tional; another was granted 9
pardon on pistol carrying
charge, after he had served
several months on a county
farm; another received a par
don on a manslaughter sentence
after having been out on parole

suits rather than causes. The
real reason for the decline of
the birth rate and for the idle
ness in England is that England
S going down hill.
A nation which is destined to
grow greater and greater still
must have a constantly increas-
ing population. 1t must have
plenty of men to be killed in bat
ties, plenty to leave their homes
and plant their country's flag
in far off climes, and it must
have plenty of employment for
those left at home. English
men are nothing like so ready,
as they once were, to be killed
in battle, nor so ready to colon
ize remote parts of the earth.
The Evolutionary ambition has
died out of them, and they stag
nate at home on a little island
incapable Of supporting them,
and under craftsmanship that
is unable to cope with changing
industrial conditions.
Is this bad thing for the
English people? By no means.
Their present hard conditions
must teach them that real glory
lies not in the rainbow of con-
Guest, but in the mastery of IT,
dustrial conditions at home. -

England's Decline.

1t is still true that the Brit
ish drum beat is heard around
the world, and that the sun new
er sets on her dominions. Her
flag floats as proudly as ever
from the masts of her mighty
navy. Her army establishment
never was stronger than it is to-
day.
But, after all, it is not for
such things as these that q ma
tons real greatness and glory is
measured.
1t is not the countries with the
most glorious history and the
widest possessions which have
the most contented populations.
England is a great and veal
thy country still, but that does
not mean that her people are
prosperous. They are not. The
millions of unemployed are but
surface indication of the vital
fact that England has lost mas
terry of the commercial condi-
tons of this age.
England is no longer going for
ward. And not to go forward
is to go backward. She has had
her day as a world conqueror.
Her dream of empire is fading.
Her people are confronted with
the problem of holding their
own industrially, and being I'M
able to solve it, they see their
property slipping from them,
and poverty creeping upon them.
The latest figures make it Off
cially plain that the English
birth rate at present is smaller
than it has been since records
are kept.
What does this mean?
The churchmen say it means
that people are growing more
selfish, preferring being COM
Portable with small families to
being uncomfortable with large
ones.
Philosophers say that the En-
glish people have become wiser,
and are realizing facts to which
they were blind before; one OF
these facts is that a big popu-
lation on a small island means
low wages and wretched living,
Another reason suggested is
that the nations vitalit7
coming weaker. Yet another,
that women are obliged to COM
pete with men and lose time
and taste for domestic life.
All these reasons however,
are secondary, subsidiary. They
do not go to the root of the mat

Christians Hidden Life.

A Christian possesses a life in COM
mon with all other men, and another
life in common with all other Chris
.tians and with God. While it can be
said of the whole human family, In
him we live and move and have our
being" it can be said Of the Chris
tan only, 'Your life is hid with Christ
in Cod" The life of the Christian is
distinguished by it's pure spirituality,
and is of such refined and sancti-
fed nature that without this, it can
not be supposed to exist. The proper
ties of the Christians life are such
that everything that is not Christlike
is forever excluded from being ranked
with it. This life has it's origin in
God. hence it is hidden. All life
originating in God in it's essence is
concealed.
