Bankers and Business
 Men Meet In Memphis

Little Rock, July 30.-E. J. Bod man, George w. Rogers and others have returned from Memphis where they attended a conference of bank CTS and business men discussi"" wavs and means of handling the 1915 cot ton crop. An agreement was ree,h- ed to hold cotton for 8 cents or more a pound, and plans were also made to secure an early cash market for the tremendous cron crop being raised in Arkansas this year. It is believed this will give the Arkansas farmers a price of 10 cents or more a bushel higher than the price will be when the Northern corn is placed on the market.

One Year of Warfare.
the Westliche Post.

From the Westliche Post.
 When, one year ago, Austria drew the sword to chastise the murderous conspirators at Belgrade, and thereby precipitated the greatest war of his tory, nobody expected war of this duration. But, after 12 months have passed, nothing has been definitely settled, and hostilities go on with un- .abated fury. It has been war of surprises-to. the allies and their sympathizers at least. Germany knew at the time she accepted the challenge of the entente Powers that hers would be no easy task, but she entered the conflict calmly confident .of her strength, made invincible by the justice of her cause. The allies. on the other hand, evidently thought that mere numerical superiority would conquer. They were to be thorough ly disappointed, for today, one year after war was declared, they find the Austro-Germans holding one-sixth Of France, one-half of Poland.

PAIN

Thou harbingr of broken law,
 True evidence of mortal ,ilt; Yet I, forsooth, forknew ,foresaw, This enemy of human lit; Why should I inwardly resent My just and righteousness punish
 ment?
 Along the ensitory nerve
 The message went with Tightening
 speed,
 My highest vantage to conserve, And yet my spirit gave no heed; Iris strange that 1 should be unwise To blessings sent me in disguise. 'Tis written in the clouds that weep, And in the soil that drinks the rain. Just as you SOW so shall your reap, And what you give comes back again Give hate, and hatred will return; Give love, it's flame will always burn. All law is made for human good; Ignore it, and you suffer loss; Your zeal, because misunderstood, Brings enmity, sometimes a cross; Peace, sweet and lasting, follows
 strife;
 Through death comes more abundant
 life.
 ''The thing that l expected" said Afflicted Job, "has happened me; . Why should you listen for the tread Of sorrows you may never see; Expect the best, from near and far, And follow Faiths triumphant star. -J. M. Cavaness, in the Kansas City
 Journal.
