GETTING NEW INDUSTRIES.

There is intense competition be-
tween cities and towns to secure new
industries. Whereas formerly many
large towns had no boards of trade,
now these organizations are common
even in small villages. Their first
and foremost activity is the effort to
lald new manufacturing propositions.
No sooner does corporation ex-
press a desire for new location,
than it is deluged with all sorts of
gift propositions, free rents, remission
of taxes, etc. Some OF the concerns
looking for such favors are mere
drifters and beats who stay in a
place year or two and then move
on.
Many boards of trade compass dis
taat states to land new enterprises
and then overlook chances in their
own city There are enterprising
young fellows in Pine Bluff who
would be perfectly capable of con-
Quoting profitable manufacturing
enterprise if they had capital. AT
the same time our business men are
sending money away because they
| know of no chances to invest favor
ably at home. This capital and this
enterprise should be brought togeth-
err The plant fathered by home en-
terprlse AID capital is most likely &c
be permanent.
Getting new factories is mostly a
case of persistent search. Ninety.
nine tips may prove hopeless. bul
the hundredth may be genuine. II

FOR Worldwide PEACE,

or all great movements Inaugural
cd by newspapers. one recen'is
Launched by the Chicago Examinef
is fraught. with the greatest possioih-
ties for good to all mankind and per
mits the American people especAaiiy
Is laid in bringing" nearer the era OF
the brotherhood OF man.
The Examiner nasEi undertaken a
great international peace movement
and has invited the rulers Of nom
cor,hatant foreign powers and leaders
Of thought throughout the unltco
States to take part. Already rulers,
ecclesiastics, senator's, governors,
congressman, mayors and men OF
prominence have accepted the invita-
ton, offering to serve in any way pos
sible.
The great European war inspired
the humanitarian movement and an
American newspaper is especially
we'll qualified to inaugurate plans for
bringing about and maintaining peace.
No plan has yet been devised, but it
seems to be the coacensus of opinion
among the thinkers who have express
ed themselves that the desired object
can best be secured through the head
of the nation.
In tee hn Mornrhic Tom
mercial-Appeal suggests that the war
ring powers be invited to submit their
differences to board composed of
ex-Fresitlent Taft, exIPresident Roose-
welt and former Secretary of State
Olney. The Appeal opines that the
individual standing OF the members, of
the board and the fact that they are
citizens of the United States would
suffice to assure the warning coun-
tries that there would be rendered
verdict untainted with partially
and prejudice.
Whatever the outcome of these sug-
gestions, the citizen of the United
States has every reason for pride in
his country; in his people. And what
cause for qualification if the Amer
lean republic could bring about a ces-
sation of the terrible conflict and
establish worldwide peace forever;
if the United States should teach
the old world powers that rule by the
people and magnanimous policy to-
ward weaker nations makes for Sc
renity at home and prestige abroad,
aad at the same time extends the
kingdom of Christ in the way He
would extend it-by liberation and
kindness and not by force and the
sword.

INDEPENDENT ARKANSAS,

While congrataiating ourselves up

We people OF Arkansas have cause
for especial qualification. While
America is the one dirst-class nation

OF the warning powers is anxious tc
win sympathy; the one nation that
could, il necessity arose, live within

For while possessing all the advan-

The Gospel According to
ST. MARK.
CHAPTER 7.

CHAPTER Z.
Then came together unto him the
| Pharisees, and certain of the scrlbes,
which came from Jerusalem.
2. And Wien they saw some OF his
disciples eat bread with defiled, that
| is to say, with unwashed, hands, they
found fault.
g. For the Pharisees, and all the
Jews except they wash their hands
oft, eat not, holding the tradition OF
the elders.
4. And when they come from the
market, except they wash, they eat
not. And many other things there be,
which they have received to hold, as
the washing of cups, and pots, brasen
vessels, and of tables.
5. Then the Pharisees and scribes
asked him, Why walk not thy dis
ciples according to the tradition Of
the elders, but eat breat with unwash-
EN- hands
6. He answered and said unto them,
hypocrites, as it is written, This peo-
pie honoureth me with their lips, but
their heart is far from me.
Z. Howbeit in vain do they worship
me, teaching for doctrines the COM
mandments of men.
8. For laying aside the command
ment of God, We hold the tradition of
men, as the washing of pots and cups:
and many other such like things ye
do.
8. And he said unto them, Full well
ye reject the commandment of God
that We may keep your own tradition.
10. For Moses said Honour thy
father and thy mother: and, Whose
curseth father or mother, let him die
the death:
IL. But We say, If man shall say
to his father or mother, 1t is Corban
that is to say, a gift. by whatsoever
thou mightest be profited by me; he

THE PAN.GERMANIC SCHEME.

Viewed from an angle, Germanys
object in plunging into a war with
England, France and Russia was to
distract domestic attention from do
nestle anti-imperialism; to arouse
patriotic feeling by foreign war. and
incidentally, perhaps to gain an At
lantic seacoast by the absorption OF
Belgium and to cement the Germanic
countries into one great empire, thus
gaining a seacOast on the Adriatic.
From another angle, the pan-German-
ic movement has for its object COM
merCial ACKNOWLEDGMENT. Here is an
explanation of pan-Germanism by a
distinguished political economist,
Prof. Upshur:
To secure a share of the worlds
trade in some fashion which will not
expose her to the attacks of the Eng
lish fleet, and which will create an
empire less vulnerable in every way
than she believes the British empire
to be, an overland houte to the east
must be found. The Germans consid-
er perfectly feasible the construction
OF great confederation of states,
including Germany, Austria-Hungary,
the Balkan states, and Turkey, which
would control great band Of terri
tory stretching southeast from the
North Sea to the Persian gulf. A rail
way from Constantinople to Bagdad
would eftectually tic the great trunk
lines, leading from the Rhine and
Danube valley to Constantinople and
the Persian gulf, AID so establish a
shoTter route to India than that via
Suez. Egypt. Arabia, Persia, India
herself, the mother of nations, would
fall into German hands and be held
safe from conquest by this magnifi-
cent route to the east.
Pan-Germanism is, therefore, in the
first pace, a defensive movement for
oUli- VI CoCl NdtloA, lOI CoSdPluS eAS
pressure of France and Russia. 1t is,
in the second place, an offensive
movement directed against England.
its object, the conquest of the Eng
lish possessions in the Mediterran
can and in Asia She expects thus to-
obtain an outlet for her surplus pop
ulation and manufacturers and to
create an empire as little vulnerable
economically or strateg-
ically as any the world has yet seem
Germany's early attack on Belgium
thus appears to be not merely because
the route through Belgium offered
the easiest ROAD to Paris, but because
Germany has an eye to the acquisi-
ton of larger seacoast on the north
Atlantic. Japan's desire to interfere
IS explained by Germany's designs
on empire in the east. The reason
for an alliance between England,
France and Russia becomes palmer,
in the light of Prof. Upshur's explain
alton of the Germanic scheme for
power.
