WAR TAX AND POOL ROOMS.

The war tax bill imposes tax of $2 per thousand on bankers capital and surplus, which will cause bank with a capital of $100,000 and surplus of $50,000 to pay an additional tax of $500 annually The same measure taxes proprietors of pool rooms $5 for ..ach table. It is cause for regret that the farmers did not assess tax of $50 table for pool rooms. The Graphic is not opposed to the playing of pool or billiards. On the contrary it believes that both may be made to serve a useful purpose. But few pool rooms there are that do not degener- ate into something worse than their name implies. A well-conducted pool room, or table in the home offers opportunity for wholesome diversion, but most of the public pool halls are abominations. They afford loung- ing place for most of the never works; they lure children and teach them to gamble and drink; to smoke and swear; to do worse things that leave them constant visitors to the doctors office and unfit to mingle with pure womanhood. And the pool rooms of Pine Bluff seem mostly Ill this class.

II is unfortunate that it is a custom in Arkansas to begin another campaign as soon as one is ended, but it is a situation l cannot alter. Therefore, as l intend to be a candidate, l thought the best thing ] could do would be inform my friends of my intention by formally announcing"
 MT. Greens platform or policy in the event of his selection by the Dem- ocrats, will be one looking to the advancement and development of tine varied resources of Arkansas, the opening to cultivation and coloniza ton of the thousands of acres Of un- titled soil in the state, and the further development of the mineral and agri- cultural possibilities"

HOW HOTELS CAN HELP

Joseph Biefeld, president of the company owning the sherman house at Chicago is proving himself a true
 friend of the south. He has started
 among hotel men a movement to nave cloths and napkins of cotton replace those of linen. Mr. Biefeld has been using cotton goods for several years, having had his cloths and napkins made in Austria. Tle appearance is as good as linen, and he declares cot ton will outwear linen in the laun- dry. He has taken up the proposi- tion with American manufacturers. If machinery now used in the United States is not sufficient, machinery from Austria will be brought over; declared MT. Biefeld It is estimated that if all hotels will follow the Sher- mans example, it will mean a de- mand for 100000 bales of cotton to supply this new industry. It is a plan so good that the hotel men will doubtless support it, especially now that it is popular to use cotton. This means money for the South.

The Gospel According to
 ST, LUKE.
CHAPTER 20.

CHAPTER 20.
 And it came to pass, that on one of those days, as he taught the peo- pie in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came upon him with the cid CTS,
 2. And spake unto him, saying Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this authority?
 g. And he answered and said unto them, will also ask you one thing; and answer me:
 4. The baptism of John, was il from heaven, or of men?
 ). And they reasoned with them selves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven: he will say, Why then believ- ed ye him not?
 6. But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us:. for they be persuaded that John was a prophet.
 '. And they answered, that they could not tell whence it was.
 8. And Jesus said unto them Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
 g. Then began he to speak to the people this parable:. A certain man planted a vineyard. and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country fer long time.
 10 And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty.
 II. And again he sent another ser want: and they beat him also, and en- treated hi mshamefully, and sent him away empty.
 12. And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out
 13. Then said the lord of the vine yard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him.
 14. But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among them selves, saying. This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
 15. So they cast him out of the vineyard. and killed him. What there fore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them?
 16. He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard of it. they said, God forbid.
 IT, And he beheld them, and said. What is this then that is written. The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the cor ner?
 IS. WbCsoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken but on whom- soever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
 19 And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them.
 20. And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor.
 Fl. And they asked him, saving,

The Dawn of Christianity
As Described in THE NEW TIES I AMENT Translated from the Original Greek.

Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither accept est thou the person of any, but teach est the way of God truly:
 P. Is it lawful for us to give trib- ute unto Ceasar, or no?
 23. But he perceived their crafti- ness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me?
 24. Shew me penny Whose image and superscription hath it? They answered and said Caesars.
 D. And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesars, and unto God the things which be Gods.
 26. And they could not take hold of his words before the people, and they marveled at his answer, and held their peace.
 27. Then came to him certain of the Sadducees, which deny that there is any resurrection: and they asked him,
 2S. Saying, Master, Moses wrote unto us, Ii any mans brother die, having a wife, and he die without children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
 29. There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died without children
 50. And the second took her to wife, and he died childless.
 31. And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: and they left no children, and died
 32. Last of all the woman died also.
 3333. Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.
 34. And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world mar ry, and are given in marriage:
 3o But they which shall be ac- counted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in mar riage:
 36. Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels and are the children of God being the children Of the resurrection.
 3l. Now that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abra- ham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
 3S. For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.
 39. Then certain of the scribes an swering said, Master, thou hast we'll said.
 10. And after that they durst not ask any question at all
 Al. And he said unto them. How say they that Christ is Dayid's son?
 42. And David himself saith in the beck of Psalms. The Lord said unto my Lord. Sit thou on my right hand.
 43. Till l make thine enemies thy footstool.
 A. David therefore callcth him Lord, how is he then his son?
 45. Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his disciples,
 46 Beware of the scribcs, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;
 47. Which devour widows houses and for shew make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damna- tion.

DINE BLUFF 0 ROGRESS
 ROSPERITY
PROSPERITY AHEAD.

Cotton just now is better than gold money, unless all signs lie. The owner of cotton is foolish to sell it at even 10 cents if he can possibly hold it, though it be necessary to borrow at per cent.
 The buy-a-bale movement has sent cotton to 10 cents; it is relieving the immediate need of growers who must have some little ready cash, but that is only start of the good work the buy y-a-bale movement has inaugural cd It has attracted the attention of the nation to cotton; to the South's enormous production of cotton; to the fact that little is manufactured in this country and to the further fact that cotton is not well-enough appreciated at home
 Already in Pine Bluff the buy-a- bale movement has developed two new movements: The Southern Women's Cotton club, designed to make cotton more popular for dress, and the enterprise of the travelling men to raise bonus of distress cotton to be used in locating here cotton factory. This in Pine Bluff.
 In other parts of the country, men whose business is interwoven with that of the South are seeking to de- wise methods of using cotton in more ways. And they're succeeding.
 Cotton will replace jute in the making of many containers, and with the leaders of fashion popularzing materials of cotton for street and house dress, this means greatly in creased consumption.
 And now comes Chicagoan, presi- dent of the Sherman hotel company, who shows cotton is better than linen for table cloths and napkins. He goes further and says manufacturer $ have been interested and will begin manufacturing cotton into table tlotnS TOT hlgn-claSS trade, even II the machinery must be imported.
 And the thinkers are still at work.
 This is only the beginning. In a few years, there'll be no need to worry about an production of cotton. The demand will be suffi- cient to take all the South can grow.
 But in the meantime, until the eff fleets of these moves are felt, there is likely to be surplus. The thing to do is to sit tight, hold your cotton, reduce the 1915 acreage and then
 Go to it! Sow all the cotton, keeping pace with progress in other lines by using modern methods. By that time people will have found new uses for cotton, American manufac-

turers will be shipping the finished
 product instead of allowing the fore-
 ign manufacturers to grab big proll's and the cotton grower will be on Easy street." This means the cotton grower who has business sense enough to operate his farm so he l5 not forced by creditors to sell as soon as the cotton opens. The man who operates on some other fellows credit will be in just as bad fix as ever.
