DO WE WANT ANOTHER
RAILROAD!

Are the people of Pine Bluff really
DESTROYS of securing another railroad
a line to the south to place the city
in more direct communication with
that wonderfully fertile country in
the southeast portion of Arkansas
And do we want that railroad enough
to 60 after it in way that shall sue
coed?
These are questions Pine Bluff
must answer soon. The Ashley
Drew & Northern is surveying three
lines north from Monticello. One
leads to Rison, one to Pine Bluff, ant
another in a direction that vii
eventually take the line into Little
Rock. From Monticello the road runs
south to Crossett, and with it's ter
minus in this city. Pine Bluff woul'
have at its doors all of Southeas
Arkansas. a country now rich ant
destined to grow richer in the mex
few years.
The people of Rison are anxious t
have the A.. d. & N. build to tina
city, and Little Rock would also Xix
to secure the line. Rison has bi
the advantage because of being TWEEN
ty-eight miles nearer to Monticell
than is Pine Bluff.
If Pine Bluff neglects the oppol
tunity to secure this road, which Wi
eventually become part of a1othe
great trunk system. it will live to re
greet it and to rue the day when il
vision was so blinded by parsimor
icusness.

Toxic, Aug. 21.-Japan is quietly
preparing for eventualities on the eX-

Orient and the evacuation of Khan

been placed on the publication of any

newspapers are closely watched.

ton of what the answer of Germany
will be Meanwhile, in spirit of the
most sensational reports of the treat
ment of Japanese in Germany, there
is no evidence of anti-German feeling
here. On the contrary, the authori-
tives have given notice that all Ger
mans remaining in Japan must be
treated courteously. German pro-
fessors are invited to remain at their
posts until they are needed for serv-

WHO WILL WIN!

Judging by the tone of the press
and of popular comment, the majority
of non professional observers in this
country regard it as a foregone con-
clusion that Germany. hemmed in by
three powerful nations. is bound to
be defeated in time, and estimates OF
the length of time it will take for
France, England and Russia to Sub
due the Fatherland vary from one
month to ohe year. Among the pro
fessional soldiers and naval men
opinion is not quite so unanimous
that Germany has no chance. al
though Admiral Alfred T. Mahan, our
foremost naval expert, says the con-
| test will be decided on the sea and
therefore the Dual Alliance cannot

1t is said that the Washington

Moses and one for Elias.
8. For he wist not what to say; for
they were sore afraid.
Z. And there was cloud that over
Swallowed them: and a voice came out
of the cloud, saying, This is my be-
loved Son: hear him.
8. And suddenly, when they had
looked round about, they saw no man
any more, save Jesus only with them
selves.
8. And as they came down from the
mountain, he charged them that they
should tell no man what things they
had seen, till the Son of man were

many things, and be sent at nought.
10. But say unto you, That Elias
is indeed come. and they have done
unto him whatsoever they listed, as
it is written of him.

Toxic, Aug. 2O.-Count Okuma. the
Japanese Premier who wrote the
Japanese ultimatum TO Germany
which it is expected. will involve
Japan in the European conflict, has
given the American newspaper men
here every assurance that American
property in the Far East will be pro-
tected in the event of war. He laughs
at the stories that Japan's move was
inspired by desire to involve the
United States in the struggle. He says
that the relations between the United
States and Japan have never been so
friendly as they are at the present
moment.
