of Kansas may lay claim to a por-
ton OF the Jetmore gold find is the

BILL BRINGS
BETTER JAP FEELING

Washington, Feb. 9.-Ndable
improvement in the relations be-
tween the United States and Japan
is believed to have resulted from
the events in the house of repre-
sentatives last week connected with
the passage Of the Burnett fmmi-
grafton bill. Reports from Toxic are
to the effect that profound i'm
preston was caused in the Japanese
capital, not only by the refusal OF
the house to include in the bill the
proposed prohibition against the en-
try of japanese into the United
States, but even more by the nom
partisan appeal of Representative
Mann.

NIXON WORKING FOR
 ARKANSAS FAIR CROWD
EndCayoring te Secure Large Delega. tion to Make Trip Thursday-Pine

T. Hayis Nixon, local attorney, to- day is endeavoring to get up big delegation from Pine Bluff to make the trip to the Hot Springs State fair Thursday-Pine Bluff day. MT. Nixon ctday will see officials of the Chamber of Commerce, the Young Mems Pro- gressive Business league, railroad of ticials and others and, by night, ac- cOrding to his statement, he will have tle nucleus of a gcood sized dele ga- ton organized. 9t
 ''The state fair is an enterprise kept up by the people of Hot Springs without state aid, and is something all Arkansas ought to be proud of," says MT. Nixon. Since Thursday has been designated as Pine Bluff day the people of this town ought to go over in body head cd by a brass band.
 "I am going to see local musicians this morning and make tentative ar engagements for a band pending what we can do towards organizing a crowd. I will also gee railroad off cials and others interested and Will work to get the Chamber of Commerce and the Young Mems Progressive League to make the trip.
 eve can leave here at z o'clock Thursday morning about 300 strong. We will step 30 minutes at Sheridan and thirty minutes at Benton and get acquainted. Returning we can leave Hot Springs at 6:30 o'clock, arriving here at 9:30 o'clock.
 Those who made the Booster trip and the Stuttgart trip know the good these things do. Let's get the train, get the band and keep Pine Bluff on tho map."

Feasi for Fans.


 On Wednesday night over 300 base ball adherents will gather at the Ho. tel Marion for the purpose of demon strating to Robert G. Allen how glaG they are to be back in the Southern league, with dinner served in honor of the new owner of the Little Rock franchise, and the manager of the Little Rock team.
 President w. M. Kavanaugh of the Southern league will preside at this dinner, and all the fans will be per mitted to speak right out in meeting, giving their views as to how a base ball team should be conducted, and not charging for the advice. Mana ger Allen will also tell how he manip- ulated the purchase of the franchise, and let the fans in on some of his plans for building up the team that he expects to win the Southern's pen nant for Little Rock.
 Manager Allen is not making any efforts to secure an alliance with big league organization, for he fears the salaries he would have to pay to secure the major leagues cast-offs. Manager Allen is strong for Little Rock players, and will give spring try outs to Cresswell,, the speedy Tender son-Brown player, Farrell of the Lit tie Rock City league and number of other native sons. He believes in developing material instead of taking cast-offs from the big teams who are on their way down the toboggan. He expects to make several trades, and one or two of these will bring Arkan- sas players home to fight for their own state if they are consummated.
