ARKANSAS TRAVELLERS
LINING UP FOR FAIR
OFFICIALS OF FAIR ASSOCIATION
WILL CONFER WITH THEM
RELATIVE TO CELEBRATION
HIRE.

Up in Canada the cry is:
''Hoot Mon, the Kities are com
in.
AS the date for the State Fair,
which Will be given here November
16 to 81, approaches, the cry is:
Hold your sWeethearts. Here
come the Arkansas Travellers"
And the commercial men of the
state are coming in force and with
more enthusiasm the coming
great exposition in this city than they
have ever manifested before.
This fact was made known when
Secretary Waters received a com
munication from the officials of the
Arkansas Travellers Association, ask
ing if it would be possible for he and
other officers of the State Fair to
come to- Little Rock and attend the
next meeting OF this body and take
up with the members the special pro
gram and other features OF "Arkan-
sas Travellers Day. they desire to Oh.
serve at the State Fair. Secretary
W aters stated that he intended going
to the Capital city for this purpose
and wrote to President S. W. Fordyce
asking him to also attend this meet
ing.
Arkansas Travellers Day" will be
observed the last day of State Fair
week, and it will be noted that the
commercial men of the state will al
so share this date with The Panama
Pacific Exposition Day" when Gov
ernor Hays, Commissioner General
Hollenberg and members of the Ar
kansas Commission of the Panama
Pacific Exposition will also be in this
city. The day. which will conclude
with q. monster and picturesque cele-
bration at night, viii bring the State
Fair to a glorious close and the Ar
kansas Travellers, from their letter,
indicate that they will he much in
evidence on this particular day.

THE DEPOT SITUATION.

The situation at the depots relative
to the meeting of the trains by the no.
tel men is not an impossible one. Ger
tainly as a people we are not ready
to plead guilty to an accusation in the
matter of incapability of self-govern-
ment.
1t seems as though any situation
here must become deplorably bad be-
fore it is given general public atten-
ton.
We are spelling our own nest in
countenancing a continuation of this
practice of pulling and hauling our
vistors-for we must all thrive from
their patronage.
Certainly the hotel man is not blind
to the condition
If lack of city ordinances contribute
to the bad situation, then we ought
to be able to have further laws.
For after all we are all in the same
boat. The big physician and the new
beginner, and the big hotel man and
the small rooming house keeper, all
alike must get his business from the
same source-the visitor.
The depot situation should be
Strengthened out. The drummers
should be curbed Courteous solicita-
ion of business. it seems, about depot
platforms, comes within the rights
and privileges of the law. But pull
ing and hauiing visitors, grabbing at
their suit cases, and yelling at them
like they were cattle" as was ex-
pressed at the physicians meeting, is
not only unlawful. but is an outrage
And in this connection it is impo~.
tant that we come to realization OF
one thing. This situation can not be
dismissed by the average business
man by calling 1t a doctors fight,
or calling II "drummers fight" Tlt
hotel man and the physician, 1t is
true, come in most direct contact with
the visitor, but ali of us live off OF
the visitor. The dry goods man, the
grocery man, the insurance man, the
tobacco man, the laundry man, the
bakery man, the mechanic, the news
paper, the banks, the laborer, all are
dependent on the visitor, for they get
only small percentage of business
from the visitor direct, but they must
realize that they are dependent on
business as a body for what they
make from those who do come in
more direct contact with the visitor
here.

~ HE princess did not remain long after
the departure OF tile police with the
bogus detectives. II had been a very
difficult corner to Wriggle out of, all
because Braine had added to his plans after
she had left the apartment But for the ad-
vent of the meddling reporter the coup would
have succeeded, herself apparently perfectly
innocent Of completely. That must be the
keynote of all her plans to appear quite
innocent and leave no trail behind her. She
had gained the confidence Of Florence and her
companion. And she was rather certain that
she had impressed this lazl-eyed reporter and
the stolid butler. She had told nothing but
the truth regarding her relationship. They
would find that out. She was Katrina Push
kins cousin. But blood with her counted as
naught. She had room in her heart but for
two things, Braine and money to spend on
her eaprices
