Soliciting Committee Meets With Encouragement
 From Business People
EVERYTHING IS FREE
Union Organization to Dispense HOs- pitality in Name of Pine Bluff, Entertaining With Aviation
 and Fireworks.

The committee soliciting funds for the Labor Day celebration, who have been meeting the business men of the city with that view, reported a most successful day yesterday, and from present indications, it is almost an assured fact that the required amount necessary to carry on the celebration will be subscribed by the end of the week. As soon as the committee completes it's work, the names of the merchants and the amounts they subscribed will be given to the press.
 The program committee of the Central Trades Council, which is composed of a representative of every local in the city, will hold a meeting at Labor Temple hall each Sunday afternoon, to further the plans for the big event.
 Contrary to the usal celebration of this kind, it will be the effort of the union men not only to commem- crate the day, but to have everybody in Pine Bluff and the neighborilg cities join in the good time.
 The program will open with speak ing by men prominent in labor cir cles and in public life. Among them will be Governor George w. Hays, Mayor Simon Bloom of Pine Bluff, J. c. Clary, commissioner of labor; M. J. McMahon, deputy commissioner of labor; w. B. Hicks, president of the Pine Bluff Central Trades council, and M J. Mikel, of the State Feder- ation of Labor.
 The entertainment feature of the occasion will be most elaborate. One of the most expensive will be exhibi- tions by a monoplane. This style of flying machine will be the first of it's kind ever exhibited in the state. The exhibitions will be given on the river bank, and the sarS bars will accomodate thousands of people who will want to witness the exhibition.
 Good music will be another feature. A thirty-six piece band, under the direction, of Prof. w. J. Seibert, will furnish concerts throughout the day.

Discoverer of Iodine.

To very few people does the name of Bernard Courtois signify anything, yet 1t is to Bernard Courtois that the world owes the discovery of iodine. A chemist of Dijon, he presented one hundred years ago the notice of his discovery to the academy. His native town will place a simple memorial slab on the wall of the house in which he lived and died.--Paris Letter to the London Telegraph.

Two very interesting witnesses in

who was shot to death in the Office
of Dr. Edwin Carman, at Freeport,
were the daughter of the doctor and
E. T. Bardes, an insurance man, who

The young daughter, not yet Old

the charge against her mother, told
the coroner at his inquest that she
was sitting in the lower floor of the
Carman house at the time of the
shooting, and she was certain she
had not seen her mother there.
Bardes said he was near the Car

woman, his description of whom fit

of the house. There was located the
back door, through which woman
might have disappeared into the
house. Bardes is employed in an in

son has interviewed. When he sent
John Lind to demand that Huerta re.

called on other nations to keep out

piled, saying in effect: ''All right; it's

lodging the fact. The longer anarchy
In Mexico continues; the longer Mr..
Wilson'S pacific method of interven-
tion fails to accomplish anything in
the way of restoring order, the more
incumbent it will be upon him to in
tervene by armed force and the
stronger will be the pressure from
the civilized world upon him to do
so. By stepping aside and leaving him
clear field, other powers have earne.
a moral right to bring this pressure t
bear.
Colonel Harvey's advice that Mr..
wilson now reverse his policy and
recognize Huefta comes too late. The
revolution has gained such power in
the north and the Huerta government
mas been so weakened in armed force,
finance and prestige that war would
continue. The alternative Is now be-
tween confession that his policy of in
PREVENTION by moral suasion has failed
and invitation to other powers to step
In and complete the task on the one
hand and resort to armed force on In
other hand. Mr.. Wilson's known
character forbids belief that he will
confess failure, much more that he
will hand over the task to Europe.
t would be practical abandonment
not only of the Monroe Doctrine but
OF the Wilson doctrine; and that is
unthinkable and the American Ma
ton would not tolerate it. 1t remains
to be seen how long he will persist
before recognizing that the second
alternative of armed Intervention is
alone open to him. unless by some
miracle strong man arises in Mexico
and restores order.-Oregonian

LEADING UP TO INTERVENTION.

Events IN Mexico and the action
OF the nations are steadily crowding
the United States into a road which
leads directly to Intervention. The
republic Is torn by war and Is raw.
aged by bloodshed and rapine. Meth
er Huerta nor Carranza has an early
prospect of subduing the other If
Carranza should secure control of the
capital, the Huerta party, even with
Huerta eliminated, would probably
continue or soon renew the war. With
the Mexican nation divided, there is
no reason to believe that q constitu-
uonal election could be held or that.
II one were held, the defeated party
would accept the result. AS Colonel
George Harvey says in the North
American Review: 1--WE are CON
fronted by a condition of anarchy,
not by a theory of government, and
the position has become intolerable."
In this situation, the great powers
have, at Mr.. Wilson's bidding, clear
Britain, by Withdrawing the ambas-
sador who criticised our policy, has
given practical proof of her purpose
to throw no obstacles In our way.
So influential a London newspaper as
che Spectator frankly urges us to
send our forces into Mexico and pac-
lily the country as we pacified Cuba.
1t says that the pressure of public
opinion In all the rest OF the world
will soon force us to intervene. 1t
declares that Mr. Wilson made a mis-
take In not supporting Huerta as the
strongest force with which to bring
peace in Mexico and continues:
Instead, he did what with all res
pect we must say was the worst
thing he could have done. He inter
vened and pretended not to be in
tervening; he deprecated bloodshed
and anarchy, and yet he would
neither stop it himself nor let anyone
else do 80. The only way left for
the United States is for themselves to
restore order in Mexico.
The Spectator predicts that we
should easily conquer the country and
though revolt would follow we should
suppress 1t. 1t foretells that we shall
annex Northern Mexico and restore
independence to the rest of that coun- |
Try, subject to our control Of its for
edgn relations. 1t also predicts tina.

the plunge into the senatorial race
