THE SAME IN RUSSIA AS IN BRINKLEY

Russian people, Russia will re- main as she is.
 This is most praiseworthy and incidentally implies tenderer conscience than most European statesmen are troubled with.
 He has, in this instance, set himself squarely against the the advice of his ministers. who approve of the Witte policy in regard to the liquor monopoly.
 He has publicly declared him. self as being forever opposed to the device which has tendency to turn his people into drunkards.
 The new minister of finance, Nj. Bark, has received an edict from the czar instructing him that the department must no longer depend upon it's revenues from the liquor traffic. for this also meant that the department depended upon the destruction of the moral and economic welfare of the great multitude of the Russian subjects.
 Evidently the czar has come to the commonsense conclusion that an army of physically perfect men is sometimes more valuable than a fleet of warships. If the health of the nation is being un- determined the czar is wiser than his advisers in limiting the sale of liquor" :"
 It seems that in the great nation of Russia, just as in America and closer home just as in Brinkley that the idea has been to get money, get rev. enue" even at the expense and cost of manhood and honor.
 It is this same evil that has divided our citizenship and is about to ruin our city. It is the prime cause of every bit of the disfection that exists in Brinkley to-day.

Congratulations 10 Jackson County

At the election on Wednesday the people of Jackson county voted in favor of forming the county into a taxing district for the purpose of spending over $500, GOO on a system of perma- nent roadways. This was by far the most important issue to the people of Jackson county and the majority in favor of progress was a decissive one.
 When the farmers of Monroe county wake up to the fact that they and their families are having to pay the greater part of the penalty for not having permanent roads, there'll be something dolng Tn Monroe county.
 Think of it more than one half of the tax that would be necessary to build a system of permanent roads in Monroe county would fall on nonresident property owners and more than one-half of the remaining tax would fall on the big land own CTS who live in the towns and who sit back and collect the thousands of dollars in rent.
 The time is coming when Monroe county farmers will not work their lives away in the prejudice and darkness of non- progressive serfdom.

Under the head the Czar and the Liquor Traffic, '" the Con- mercial Appeal published the following Editorial on Tuesday.
 "Czar Nicholas of Russia is not the weakling that the world has considered him to be. He IS not willing that Russia shall be made the strongest military and naval nation in the world at the expense of the moral condition of his people.
 It was during the administra- ton of Minister Witte, and in the year 1901, that the Russian government was given a monopoly of the liquor traffic. Prior to that time the govern ment had supervised the sale, but under the Witte rule the government was placed absolute ly in control of the traffic. The result has been that the revenues from this source, alone, have amounted to not less than $500, GOO, GOO year. It was the ambition of Minister Witte to make Russia the most formidable nation in the universe. If this revenue had been applied as it was intended to be applied, Russia today would no doubt be the greatest naval power in the world.
 Russia badly wants money to re-organize her army and to re- construct her navy, and she IS getting it, too, but mostly from the liquor traffic.
 The czar may be weakllng in some things, but when he found that the promiscuous sale of vodka was creating a nation of sots, he expressed his deter imitation to curtail the sale, even if if meant a pause in the recon struction of the army and navy.
 He has publicly announced that if Russia must rebuild at the expense of the morals of the

there had been "fbargamY5 between
Sir Edward Grey, the British for

son on the question of Panama Ca

at is true that I saw the Presi-

was at the Mansion House peace

dhat I said anything about the Pres
ident pledgIng himself to carry the
tolls repeal "to the satisfaction of
Great Britain" l couldn't have said
il, as I did not speak at the Mansion
House meeting. The only public
reference I have made to the matter
was at another meeting, when 1 said
1 was sure President Wilson
and Congress would do the right
thing regarding canal tolls. I have
no reason to take back, as I have
implicit belief in the American
peoples sense of justice.
"Since knowlands has stated that
I am a friend of Carnegie, you may
say that my acquaintance with Car
negie is slight, and that I never had
any conversation with him regard
ing the canal tolls question"
