for Mr.. Gould's information, who ex-
pressed his pleasure at the good con-
dltion OF the crops, despite the heavy
rains. When asked about the cur
rency bill now before Congress and
the present stringenc of the money.
market. Mr.. Gould evaded the cur
rency question by ignoring it, but
said of the present close money con.
ditions:
"The present condition in the money
markets was not brought about
in the United States. 1t did not have
its inception in New York, despite the
belief of many bankers and others
that the stringency was caused
by New York financiers and
others. 1t started with the Balkan
war and subsequent events and con-
ditions have helped in bringing about
the present existing conditions. How
ever, now that the crop movement
is on in the South l anticipate bet
ter times and easier money!
An invitation was extended Mr..
Gould to be present at the r.
to be given at the formal opening of
the Hotel Pines on November 6, but
the gentleman expressed his regret
at being unable to be present, as
pressing business would force him
to be in New York at that time. He
stated that he would be able to re-
turn to Pine Bluff at a later date,
however, and would spend longer
time here with the people. The invi-
tation was extended to President
Britton and Vice President Farrell,
both of whom accepted, saying they
would be pleased to be present on
that date
A brief session of the board was
held, at which w. D. Hear1 was elect
ed director of the Pine Bluff & Ar
kansas River Railway Company, to
succeed w. Fl. Langford, removed to
New York. 1t was the desire of a
majority of the board to have local
representative on the board, and
since the removal of Mr.. Langford,
who formerly resided in this city, the
vacancy has existed. Members of the
party spoke in highest terms of Mr..
Hearns ability and said that they
felt that the vacancy could not have
been filled by a better man.
The members of the party compli-
mented local conditions and express
ed their regret that they could not
spend longer time in the city, but
this trip, as on former visits, had
revealed the fact that the interests
of the company were being looked
after locally in very satisfactory
manner, therefore their visits were
more in the nature Of short inspec-
ton trips" rather than business calls

X. II. WILLIAMS AT
COTTON BELT SHOPS


Attorney T. Havis Nixon and r. HI.
Williams, candidate for sheriff, ad-
dressed the men at the Cotton Belt
shops yesterday. The Taxpayers Pro-
tective Association endorsed Mr.. Nix
on and Mr.. Williams at it's recent
meeting. Mr. Williams addressed the
body in short speech, setting forth
his claims to the office sought, while
Mr.. Nixon declared that he was not
yet a full-fledged candidate for the
office of county Judge, but took ad-
vantage of the opportunity to meet
those present and desired their
friendship, whether he be candidate
or not.

long and bent fingers better grip
on the ball.
The crowd gave Bender great
hand as he disposed OF Murphy, who
raised a fly to Snodgrass, but RUDE
Oldring followed with three-base
smash to right, hitting the first ball
pitched. Eddie Collins, the slugger
of the series, rolled to Merkle, how
ever, and Oldring was called out at
the plate by Jack Egan, the Amer
can League umpire who was working
from that position for the first time
today. Oldring kicked vigorously
about the decision as he arose brush
ing the dirt from his clothes, and
later on Egan, who, was the target
for verbal volleys from various men,
tbers of the Giants on some of his
decisions. He took no action, how
ever.
Collins got credit for a steal of
second as he dashed away from first.
Demarre suddenly turned and threw
the ball to Merkle. Merkies throw
to stop the Columbia collesian, was
wild. Baker got round of applause
as he came to the bat, but the Mary
land farmer fouled to Shafer.
With two out in the second, Muir
ray was hit by pitched ball. 1t
was just after he had complained
about Egans decision on the strike,
and Red John" took occasion to
hurl some additional language over
his shoulder at the umpire as he
trotted away to first. Egan paid no
attention to him. Mclean dropped
fly between Murphy and Strunk for
a single and Murray raced to third,
but McInnis ran over to the Giants
bench and caught a foul from
Merkle's bat, landing among bunch
of New York players, sitting in the
coop, after he got the ball.
The real disaster arrived in the
fourth after McInnis had goen out on
an easy bounder to Doyle. Strunk
nearly carried Herzog off his feet
with mighty smash and Barry sin
gled, Strunk racing around the third
ahead of Skaters throw. Barry took
second on this throw and Schang
singled past Doyle, driving in Strunk
and Barry. Shafer threw the ball in
to the plate and Schang moved up to
second under the heave. A passed
ball put him ON third and he scored
when Merkle tumbled down the foul
line, after Bender's slow twisting roll
er that he failed to get. Murphy pop
ped to Doyle, but Oldring singled to
center, putting the slow Indian on
second. Collins pushed weak roller
in front of the plate and was thrown
out at first by Mclean. Another
change came to the Giants in the fifth
and McGraw began moving his men
about like pawns in desperate ef-
fort to get runner. Murray walked

Philadelphia, Oct. 1o.--Limping
along from way behind, the sadly
crippled New York Giants made the
| fourth game of the worlds series
close this afternoon-but that's all
they just made it close. The final
score was 6 to ) in favor Of that
smashing combination of brains and
Drawn they call the Philadelphia
painfully up from six run disad-
vantage to draw the finish that fine.
A fly that poor Fred Snodgrass
could not quite reach because in
jury had tripped him of his speed; a
foul that Fred Merkle, pathetically
lame, could not handle-these We're
incidents in the third triumph OF the
mighty Mack men in the series that
is now drawing to close; incidents
that were responsible for the one
run that the smuggling Philadelphians
needed to tide them over in the time
of bitter onslaught of the Giants
against Albert Bender, the veteran
Indian.
The years he had put behind him
in the big league We're a heavy load
upon the shoulders of the lean
Chippewan as he faced the charge
of the Big Town boys in those final
innings, and even while he fought
them with craft, it was apparent that
he was going and going fast.
Another inning-but this is not the
story of the might-have-been He
won and that is the baseball answer.
Albert Demarre, the cartoonist-
pitcher of the Giants and the sensa
ton of the National League in 1918,
slender, frail looking lad with the
pitching wisdom of an old man stor-
ed away in his brain, was sent
against the Mack machine by John J.
McGraw, but the cripples behind him
could give the lad no support and
finally he was succeeded by Rube
N1arquard, pitching for the second
time this series. Had the scoring
stopped when Marquard mounted the
mound the final count would have
been five to four in favor Of the
Giants, but pass to Strunk after
two men were out in the fifth inning,
slashing double by Barry and
another smash by Schang gave the
Philadelphians two more tallies and
the game.
McGraw stood directly behind
Demarre during the warming up, ap-
pearently to see how the youngsters
delivery looked, something Mcdraw
rarely does when a pitcher is "ready-
ing" himself. Over near the Athletic
bench a half dozen youngsters were
working out, but the big bulk of
Bender could be seen hard by and
the Giants were not deceived by an
activity on the part of others. They
knew they would have to face the
willy old Indian again.
AS Demarre started to pitch to Ed
die Murphy in the first inning, after
the Giants had been hurriedly re-
tired the crowd became intensely
interested by AIS habit of showing
his right had in his hip pocket before
he pitched the ball and there was
much speculation as to the contents
of that pocket The explanation is
that Demarre Carries a lump of rosin
which he thinks gives his curiously

Country Merchants
and New Conditions

Governor Hodges of Kansas,
has been taking look at rural
conditions and has arrived at
she conclusion that the first
trouble win the farm today is
the decline of the small town.
He declares that the agricultur-
list must keep the small town
prosperous if he is to prosper.
In the opinion OF Governor Hold
ges the decline of the small
rural town is due first of all to
the success of the mail order
houses, (Which success in turn
IS due to the lack of enterprise
on the part of the rural deal
err" Modern methods of rum
ming country stores must be
used, he says, and the proprie-
tor can compete with the mail
order house providing he ad-
vertises his wares sensibly and
industriously. "The newspa-
pers," says Governor Hodges,
ARE his best medium. The
farmer would rather deal with
his home merchant if he knew
that he could get good mer-
chandise at as reasonable rates.
But he never knows whether
the merchant has what he
wants. The country merchant
can keep this trade for himself
if he goes after it,"
Governor Hodges has hit the
nail on the head. One of the
arguments against establishing
the parcel post was that it
would tend to destroy the coun-
try trading points because of
the easy shipping facilities
from the large mercantile
houses in the cities. The par
eel post is here and the coun-
try merchant is thereby placed
on the defensive. 1t is up to
him to go after the trade of his
neighborhood through modern
business methods. He cannot,
Iof course, carry such assort-
ments and stocks as are car
ried by city merchants, but he
can push such wares as he car
ries through the medium of adj
vertising. The parcel post has
revolutionized business meth
DDS and the country merchant
of necessity compelled to adj
just himself to the new condi-
lions. st. Joseph News.

Merchants of this city are
more than anxious to buy goods
that will meet with the approv-
| al of the families of union
men. They, as a whole, are
heartily in sympathy with
union men. | know TINS thfo'
the several conversations |
have held with prominent bust
ness men. Tne fact is given
additional proof by the pledges
of cooperation given a few
weeks ago to committee OF
union men, who called upon
Missouri Valley merchants to
ask them to handle only union
made goods. They We're unani
NOUS in their willingness TO do
anything possible to please
their customers. So, it would
seem, all that is necessary To
make this absolutely a union
town, as far as the necessaries
and comforts of life are con-
cerned, is TO keep merchants
constantly posted as to What
YOU want ard the only WAY To
| do that is for the members Of
the unions to keep their pur.
chasing agents namely, the
women folks of their families
Informed.
No one will gainsay the fact
that the best way to do this Is
through organizing them IN
auxiliaries.
The suggestion that members
of the locals organize their Wo
men friends and relatives,
came from Frank Reinemeyer,

ing of District Is, oil the Boil

of such a move. Among "ev

had thought of such a thing as
bringing together the women

| However, no deflnate action
had been taken. Toastmaster
