nation at the insult to their nation the Spaniards drew their knives and cut ev- cry French throat that lay bare to their murderous hands. This was a wholly new experience for Napoleon. In Italy and Egypt and Poland he had battled only with the alien oppressors of the population, to whom he presented himself as a liberator. Tn Austria and Prussia he had not fought the people but only q stupid and selfish aristocracy In em- phasizing the difference between Napo- leon's earlier and later campaign Ma pier the foremose English military his- torian points out that until his inva- sion of Spain he and France had been engaged solely in "a deadly conflict to racy should predominate. whether equal ity or privilege should henceforth be the principle of European governmental '
 When Napoleon accepted the challenge of the popular revolt in Spain and un- dertook to crush a people, he ceased to be the champion and became the enemy of democracy. Apparently he himself did not appreciate the full and fatal significance of the step he was taking nor realize that he was planting his feet in a new and untried path Indeed, he seems to have become the victim of a self-delusion such as he had so often scornfully oensured in his generals. He was making p1clure as ne Cdlleu the fault in others and binding himself to the real situation.
 In the picture that he was contemplat- ing, he saw himself a second Charle- magne uniting Europe in a new empire of the west. But in 10 centuries since the Carlovingian empire was founded na- tions had risen and the sentiment of pa triotfsm had become a mighty force among men,
 Napoleon himself had no nation and had grown up stranger to patriotism. His country had died when he was born as he bitterly said in his youth. By a strange stroke of poetic justice he had left his subjugated Corsica, had con quered it's conquerors and brought the continent under the rule of an islander. His army was a medley of nations and races; his camp babel of tongues. Ital- ians guarded his eagles on the dykes of the North sea; Poles bore them through the passes of the Pyrenees, and Span iards patroled the sandy bounds of his dominion by the Baltic.

Arkansas at the Exhibition.

Thirty five counties in Arkansas have agreed to send the best of their county far exhibits to the state fair at Hot Springs. and to maintain it there as county ex- hibit. At the close of the fair the best of these will selected and sent on to San Francisco to the Panama Pacific International exposition. Other counties will be added to this as their fairs are held, and it is contemplated that at least sixty Arkansas counties will make dis plays in the large hall at Hot Springs. This arrangement is of great assistance to the commis- sioners of the Arkansas organlZa- tion, for it gathers all the principal exhibits in one place, and not only assists the state fair, but permits the shipment of the products in car lots.
 By November IS the Arkansas building at the Panama exposition will be under roof. and January will see it so near completed that the decorators may begin their work and have all the exhibits in place for the opening of the fair in February. Two cars loaded with interior finish for the building all of which is being supplied by lumber men of Arkansas without cost to the state, were shipped to San Francisco last week, and more will go next week. The two first cars were of pine, and the balance will be oak. gum and other Arkansas hardWoods. The finish in each room will be different, in order to show the world the many ways ir which Arkansas woods may be worked to advantage.

AID FARMERS IN CAMPAIGN.
Bankers and Merchants Ready to Help With
 Diyersificalion and Livestock.

The great Profitabl Farming campaign next Monday, November 9, with meeting at Little Rock of the governors of the cotton states and leading farmers, merchants and bankers from all over Arkan sas and the South.
 Among the leading agriculturists who will be present is P. G Hol- den. director of the agricultural extention department of the Inter national Harvester Go. He will take part in the entire campaign with his staff of l2 or IS practical farming men who have done so much for diversif1cation and live stock in Mississippi and other Southern states. In each county visited from 25 to 40 meetings will be held on farms, at school houses ana Tn towns.
 The object of the campaign is to bring into closer cooperation the banking. mercantile and farming interest of the state. Many of the leading farmers and business men declare that only through a di versity of crops and the raising of more poultry and livestock can the people have money and be able to keep their money at home. Hu : dreds of farmers are ready to give up the exclusive raising of cotton and begin afresh with money making crops and livestock. But these men need practical aid from the bankers and merchants.
 Many of the business men real ize, that for their own sakes. they must help the farmers to bring about farming business prosperity m the face of the cotton situation. They say what helps the farmer helps them and that they are ready to do their part in material way.
 We must all get together now as never before, says one of the leading banker-farmers of the
 
 state. No matter what the out come of the cotton situation may be. we can solve dur problem only by making more money and keep ing this money at home. The only way to make more money is to di- versify our crops and to get more COWS, hogs and chickens. These are the things that have made the people in Iowa and Illinois rich and they will make us rich. The situ- ation is critical but we will be in fine shape next summer and fall if the whole state is aroused to the necessity for complete diversified ton. This is solving the problem in Mississippi and will solve it here. This movement will do more for all the people than any oth er movement ever started in the state. It means money and more and more money year after year"
