YE WHO HAVE FAILED.
(NANTHo YERKEs. J

Oh ye who have failed in your purpose
And striving, have striven in vain;
Oh, We who yet bend to your burden,
Though forward step ye attain,
Take heart and arise from your ashes,
On of hopes that past,
Build the groundwork OF hope for the future,
Oh turn and fight to the last,
Though you stagger and strain for footing
siiAnd gasp in the press OF the throng,
Push onward to new calls of honor, ss4s s..

Still making your duty your aim; f
Arouse all the manhood within you,
Ye yet may ennoble your

No Big Insurance Loss.

New York, Aug. 1S.-Insurance
men do not anticipate heavy loses
through their European agencies dur
ing the present war; Darwin Pr
Kingsley, president of the New York
Life Insurance company, states
Most of the American companies
operating in these countries have
their headquarters in Paris. The
business of Russia. Germany, Austria
Hungary and France possibly of
England. will temporarily have to be
treated as though it were separate
and distinct company. Representa-
tives of the companies in charge with
in each country undoubtedly have au-
thority to sign for the companies
whatever papers may be necessary
currently to carry out the obligations
In the matter of morality" he said,
the companies have no fear. Business
has been done in Europe for long
time in the expectation that some
thing like this might happen.

Fabric Trade Affected.

New York. Aus. 1.-THE cotton
goods and linen trade of America is
very upset, as both importation and
expectation Of fabrics have been tenn
porarily cut off. Stocks of foreign
goods particularly linens, and fancy
fabrics, are running low in hands of
importers and retailers. 1t is stated
that many large houses sold only two
week normal supply of linen goods
for Southern ATTITUDES during the Fall
and Winter. The wholesale trades
announce that buying by Southern
merchants continues on much re-
duced vC,ale. Hope is expressed that
American mills will find market
for their products in South America
and the Far East during the period
of forced inactivity in Europe. There
is feeling that continued war in
Europe will give to spindles outside
the war zone a period of extraordln-
airy activity.

BRYAN Will Not 'i'aIk.

Secretary Bryan today refused to
discuss the Japanese ultimatum with
Haniel Haimhausen, the German
charge, according to the latter. The
German charge stated Secretary Bry-
an said the refusal was because he
wished to remain absolutely neutral
in the whole affair.
The United States had received nc
representation from the kaiser's gov
eminent so far as Mr.. Haimhausen
could say.
Japan's determination to locallze
her operations against Germany &c
,Kia Chow and the China seas, With
out extending them to the wide range
of Germanys extensive possessions
throughout the Pacific, gives distinct
relief to officials here.
The American government has made
no announcement as yet on TINS Inn
it of the area of conflict III the Fai
East, but among military, diplomatic
and other observers it is felt to Dt
most important that the general range
of the Pacific is not to be brough
within the field of Japan's proposed
action.

This Is Opinion Voiced at
Memphis Meet of Farm
ers and Merchants
REVISE FARM SYSTEM
DIR. II. w. Morgan Believes There
Would Be More Farming For
Profit III Production Fixed
Land Values.

Memphis, Tenn, Aug. 1S.-The Cot
ton States Merchants association Je-
gan its three-day convention this
morning at the Business Mems club.
One thousand delegates, including
both farmers and merchants, from
all cotton-growing states, We're pres
ent at the opening meeting. 1t is
expected the number of delegates
will be greatly increased by tomor
row.
The purpose of the convention is
to bring about the organization of a
plan which will bring the farmer,
small and big merchant together on
differences of various character that
have confronted them for half a
century.
The convention was called to order
by Thomas D. Winfield, president of
the Business Mems club, who intro
duced ]. r. Payne, vice chairman OF
the general executive committee, who
presided over the general meeting.
V. M. Bryan welcomed the delegates
on behalf of Mayor Crump.
DR.. H. w. Morgan of Knoxville,
Tenn, dean and director of the col
lege of agriculture and experiment
station, in addressing the convention
said that before the South could get
a larger agricultural representation
it must first consider the fundaneat-
al things confronting it.
He asserted the farmers of this
country need a more general rural
credit system, that loans are necessary
for productive purposes, but not for
speculative purposes. He advocated
more simple land-title system, and
believed that the reason loan interest
rates are so high is due to the great
cost OF examining titles. He advocat-
ed state law whereby the states
themselves would stand back of land
titles, or refund money paid out for
them if titles were not good.
DR.. Morgan spoke at some length
on the buying of rural lands for
speculative purposes, then leasing
them to tenants. He believes if the
value of ground was fixed from a
productive standpoint there would be
more white farmers and men who
would farm for real profit and not
because they had land to sell.
Governor Hays of Arkansas and
Congressman Claud Kitchen of North
Carolina failed to arrive for the OPP
eAing sessions.
Some OF the topics selected are
credits, retransportalions good prac-
tlce in farming and planting, good
business practice, and kindred sub
i Jects OF vital interest to the cotton
states merchants. The afternoons
AID evenings of the convention days
will be devoted to amusement and
recreation.

Suspect Arrested at Nc
Nehee While Trying to
Sell $500 In Stamps
COMPANION ESCAPES
fedeful Officials Suspect Prisoner Is
Leadef Of Gang Guilty Of Rob-
bling P0stOffice ut Collins
and Three Other Places

Will Sands, about 80 years old, was
brought to the city last night by
Postoffice Inspector H. G. kuper and
Deputy United States Marshal c. s.
Harley, charged with having burglar
ICED the postoffice at Collins, Ark, on
July 80. He was locked up in the
county Jail, and will be given hear
ing before United States Commission
er A. L. Burnett Thursday.
He was arrested at McGehee yester-
day morning while in the act of sell
ing about $500 worth of stamps to a
pawnbroker at that place. Sands ap-
preached the pawnbroker early In the
morning and made an engagement to
return with the stamps which were
to be sold for so cents on the dollar.
When he departed to get the stamps,
the broker called the officials at Nc
Gehee and when he returned with the
stamps he was taken into custody
and later turned over to the govern
ment officials.
A companion of Sands made his
escape with a bundle, which is
thought by the officers to contain
stamps. He was shot at three times.
but none of the shots took effect.
Secured Rich Booty.
The postoffice of Collins was burg
larized on the night of July 80. when
$275 worth of stamps, about 1928 in
cash, diamond ring valued at $3.50
and several other small pieces of
jewelry were stolen. Eight hundred
dollars worth of stamps were recov-
cred by the officials, but the ring and
other jewelry is thought to be in the
hands of the missing member.
During the past two months four
postoffices within 100 miles of Pine
Bluff have been robbed and a large
number OF stamps and money taken
from each place. The officers are OF
the opinion that they have the leader
OF the gang and will make an effort
to locate the others.
Says He Found Stamps.
Sands denies his guilt and says that
he found the stamps at Bearden. He
says that he has no fear for the out
come and intinates that he will have
enough money here in several days
with which to hire the best lawyer il
the city to defend him. Only $3.7t
was found on his person when arrest
ed. He was intoxicated at the time
Ne was making an effort to dispose Of
the stamps. He also told the officials
last night that whiskey was his down
foil, but other than that refused tt
talk concerning his arrest.

The evening News quotes the min
lister of war at Brussels as saying:
"The situation is unchanged. All
continues we'll with our armic,,''
A central news dispatch reports
that the population of Brussels were
awakened this morning by the sound
Of artillery firing. The inhabitants
are seriously alarmed, believing the
Germans were at their doors. Every
where the people rushed into the
streets to ascertain the cause of the
bombardment d. 1t was found that
several aeroplanes had been sighted
some distance from the city and were
being subjected to hot bonn bardment
from all arms of the service. The fate
of the aerOplaneS are unknown.
An Exchange dispatch from Brus-
sells dated Monday says the day was
full of excitement owing to the many
disquieting rumors that had gone
abroad because of the removal of the
seat of government to Antwerp, and
the departure of the royal family.
Fear was expressed that the Ger
man effort which had been continued
since the previous day to force the
extreme left center of the Belgian
lines between Camblanx, Wavery and
,Jodoigne, is in effect raid on Brus-
sells itself, Or else to cover the Ger
man advance toward the French army
by way of Leige and Namur.
The Belgian army during the last
two days has lost many men, but the
Germans still continue to lose heavi-
ly, especially the famous Deaths
Head hussars, which had several
squadrons entirely cut up in previous
SkirmiShes.
