Fire of an unknown nature was dis covered last night at 11:30 o'clock in the sample room of the Wild and Orme Cotton Company, 200 West Bar raque street. The damage is estimat- ed at $1,000.

 BROADCAST DEFI Texas Governor Is Deter mined to Buck Against
 Mexico Anyway.
RAPS U. $. OFFICIALS.
Declares Rangers Can Do What Regu- latiOn Troops Are Barred From
 Attempting Against Orders.

Fort Worth, Texas, March 10.-Gov. Colquitt in an address before the Texas Cattle Rangers today, said:
 q defy any authority on the face of the earth, Washington included, to prevent me from protecting our citi- zens along the border. It is only the inherent right of self defense. When- ever the situation demands l will deal directly with Mexico. In right and wrong we cannot wait for the federal government which seems to stand in fear.
 "You can't expect ife United States soldiers to cross tAe the border or seize murderer. Oh, No. But the Texas rangers can do it. The federal government has not once arrested any citizen along the Rio Grande when they appealed for aid, except when it was too late. The defense of the people on the border belongs to Tex as and they shall have its full prOtec- ton while 1 am governor. I am try ing to restrain myself, but it is al- most impossible in view of the out rages and endurance of the United States. These bandits cross our bor- ders, kidnap our people, steal our \ property and go back to Mexico and { are safe. They know they are safe. They know Washington will do noth- ing.
 "The Governor of Texas is superior to the President of the United States on matters intrusted to his care. Suppose Bryan had been kidnapped and butchered himself, would it have amounted to any more than in the Vergara case. Citizens are entitled to equal rights. The Democratic party is drunk with power. Congress- men and Senators have become cow- ards for political belts and patron age"

Haywood, foremost among the L. w. w. leaders, has declared that Tannenbaum's movement will soon assume nationwide proportions for the purpose of compelling every church in the country to offer shelter to the homeless during the bad wealth CT.

HUERTA SOLDIERS
 KILLED VERGARA? Great Britain Wants Inves- tigation of Benton
 Murder.
 "NO TIME LIMIT" For the Punishment of Vergara's Murderers. Says Secretary of State.
"NO TIME LIMIT"

Washington, March 1O-Although the report of Captain w. T. Howard to Secretary Garrison established the fact that the American, c. Vergara had been tortured and killed by Huerta's soldiers, Secretary of State Bryan announced today that mo time limit" has been fixed for the demand for punishment of Vergara's murder CTS.
 Secretary Bryan also stated that the governmental policy of swatchful waiting" prohibited the immediate demand for reparztion from the fed eral government.
 Having settled the question of the status of the men who recovered the body of the murdered American, the State Department made it plain that it will return to it's former attitude of disregarding the butchery of it's Rio Grande.
 Rigid military instructions prevent ed Capt. Howard from making any comment on the case in his report to Secretary Garrison, but in his de- scription it was made plain that the Mexican Federal soldiers who seized the American, hanged him from a tree and then shot him to death as he was struggling.
 While the State Department was endeavoring to bury the Vergara case, Great Britain today again pressed this country for a proper investigation" of the Benton murder.
 Dissatisfied with the slow progress which is being made in her effort to have the canal tolls exemption repeal ed, England again applied the Pres sure of suggestion" as it is termed.
 Additionally she filed formal protest with the State Department against the Lake Front development in Chicago violating the treaty of 1911 between the United States and Eng land
 It is understood in the State De- partment that both of these acts are intended to prob the lagsing admin istration into a hasty repeal of the Panama exemption clause Under her understanding" with this coun- try, England has agreed to give her moral support to the United States if in return this country acts quickly on the toll question.
 Seer retary Bryan today stated he had received no communication from the Huerta government concerning the alleged violations of the inter- national law committed by the men who went after Vergara's body.

 Grea fst Move Yet.
 Those who are fully conversant with the situation declare this is the greatest move which has yet been started to put Pine Bluff on the cot ton map in big letters. With the vast increase in handling which will follow, it will mean thousands of dol lars annually to this city, an incom- ing of many more people to make their homes in this city and greater field for labor than has been the case at any time heretofore.
 That the meeting of the cotton men is of vital interest, is evidenced by the fact that Ed Hutson, of Paris, Texas, American representative of the Wild & Orme Cotton Company, of Liverpool, England, one of the largest concerns in the world, is to arrive today and be present at the meeting
 It is also expected that the action taken by the Pine Bluff cotton men will be watched with interest throughout the south and everywhere the cotton market is operated on a large scale.
 Pine Bluff, as all in this section know, has been years and years a great cotton market, and buyers for foreign andeastern firms spend the greater portion of the year at this place. With increased facilities it is believed that this city will be the mecca of many more cotton men.

If tentative plans are carried out : as mapped this afternoon when there will be called meeting of the stock holders of the Pine Bluff Cotton Exchange in the Citizens Bank build ing, the capital stock of the compress company will be greatly increased, and Pine Bluff will shortly possess one of the largest cotton warehouses in the country.
 Such a move is calculated to give a great impetus to the already great cotton industry of this section. With warehouse, fireproof structure, that will have a capacity of 10000 bales, it will place Pine Bluff sec Ond to no city in the country and will mean, it is thought, that Mem phis will lose much of her prestige as cotton center.
 May Approve Plan.
 -some two or three days ago and the matter has been discussed among the cotton men to quite an extent. While no formal action can be taken on the matter until the meeting is held, it is believed that the plan will not find any opposition and that it will be put through in rapid time.
 According to the plans which have been made the compress company is to have the capital stock increased by something like s150,000, which will give it a more advantageous working capital and also put the plant in a better position to handle the cotton business which will be greatly increased on the erection of the big warehouse. It is well nigh certain ill the event tha.e is any ad- vance in the capitalization at all, that it will be of sufficient size to cover any contemplated improvements. It is held that too small capitaliza- ton would not create the desired re- suit.
 Warehouse Solves Problem.
 Among those who have been con- versant with the situation, it it held that all Pine Bluff has needed to be- come leading factor, or moreso than she is already, in the cotton world was the erection of ware house of sufficient size to take care of the sieuation1 Having facilities for caring for cotton is possibly the leading factor in making Memphis great incoming point.
 It is believed that with warehouse of 100000 bales capacity, together N with already existing warehouse faci- lities, Pine Bluff will be at leas[ on this side of the Mississippi the great est cotton center.
 The warehouse will be as modern as modern methods can render one and will also be as near fireproof as it is possible to make big structure This means that the latest improve ments in building and in facilities will be used. The big fire proof warehouses as a rule are constructed

Why l Am Apposed to Socialism
BY Rev. FIR. Vaughan S. ].

and again in the course of these con-
ferences, either on to Socialism or
back to Christ.
1t is possible that some of my
hearers may still retain something of
complacency and satisfaction with a
condition of things which has pro-
voked the denunciation of many true
social reformers. For fear that the
social sense of many of us is still in
a very rudimentary condition. Some
fear have hardened their hearts by
self-indulgence and luxury. Others
are merely stupid and lacking in i'm
gaination. They do not know what
therefore hunger and homelessness
the hungry and homeless feel like,
do not exist. Their complacency is
increased by certain type of anti
Socialist literature, which to my
mind is as harmful as the literature
it seeks to combat. If anything
could make me a Socialist it would
be the anti-Socialist literature which
is the controlled by men who are
growing rich on unjust profits, and
is devoted to misrepresenting the
working classes and distorting or en-
tirely ignoring their grievances. Such
literature is wholly opposed to the
spirit of Christianity. 1t is an at
tempt to stifle the voice of the op-
pressed, which cries to heaven for
vengence.
Some of our social evils spring
from deliberate injustice. Others
spring from stupidity. Together
they amount to an appalling sum of
misery which must be faced honestly
and remedied promptly.
