Fellows Home
At Minden

A lot has been purchased in Reno
for the proposed home for aged Odd
Fellows, says the Gazette.
Provisions for the construction of
the Odd Fellows home will be made at
the meeting of the grand lodge to be
held in Reno on June H. The home
will not cost less than $4,000 and may
cost more than this. depending on how
much money the grand lodge feels
it will be justified putting into the
building. The laws of the order,
however, prohibit construction of a
home Inadequate to accommodate all
the Odd Fellows in the jurisdiction
c. +. Mack, grand master of the
order, said today that he considered
the lot purchased very suitable To-
cation for the home but added thai
where the home will be located will
not be decided till the grand lodge
meets. Minden, Douglas county, also
is bidding for the home The Dang
bergs have offered to donate a 10-acre
tract of land as site for the home s
soon as the grand lodge decides to To-
cate the home at Minden.

Big Storm Benefits
Growing Crops

Last Friday a storm of unusual
severness for this season OF the year,
visited this section and for several
days snow fell here but at no time
was there more than two inches of the
beautiful" on the ground. The snow
was followed by rain and yesterday
the sky was clear. the first time in a
week. Growing crops have been
greatly benefited, especially wheat.
The ranges were also benefited by the
moisture. Although the fruit crop
is believed to be totally ruined, the
good to other crops will offset the
damage to orchards.

HOLDING ARKANSAS BACK.

There is not citizen of the state but who should feel afront at the fact that Arkansas instead of making rapid strides forward, Is slipping back.
 As proof of this fact yesterday the supreme court of the state held the appropriation of $i0,O0O for the Ar kansas building at the Panama-Pa, cific was illegally passed.
 The criticism is not directed at the supreme court, but rather at the fact that the requisite two-thirds vote was not secured for the measure to make it stand the test of the court de cisions.
 The bill was pet measure of Governor Hays In the senate the nee. essary twothirds vote was secured as required on all new appropriations of money. In the house the Hays in- fluence, instead of working and cam paigning for twothirds vote, secur- ed a favorable ruling from the speak. CT, and put the measure over With a majority vote.
 Now there is an unfinished and un- paid for Arkansas building 'in the galaxy of states" at the California exposition which better had never been begun.
 Governor Hays vetoed legislative act that would have guaranteed the permanency of the Arkansas State Fair, an institution in which more than a hundred thousand dollars had been spent to prove that Arkansas is land of splendid opportunity for in- vestment
 Arkansas may yet have "still small voice" but the state is certainly in need of men at the helm who are big enough to handle state affairs There may come day of awakening but the history of the last few month. does not point to very rapid strides in the matter of progress.

CASTING THE LINES.

That there are some few men act i've in public affairs, who have partici- pated in and have been the benefici- ary of democratic primaries, and now are openly revolting against the party organization and it's nominees, is a condition that should be met with some definite action, lest in the future the primary as a means of nominat' ing officers, be rendered worthless
 The value of a democratic party nomination is thing to be deter. mined by those who align themselves with the party.
 Just at this time we particularly should be careful to exhibit a demo- cratic strength that will insure us recognition iu the party councils of the state.
 If Hot Springs is ever going to re- ceive recognition in state affairs it can only be through a united party movement at home. We must have an undisputed party strength to offer when the future political lineup Of the state is made.
 1t will De but short time until there wih be other primary elections held in this county, and the question naturally arises as to what those nominations may be taken for as to face value Are we so independent in political affairs that we may divorce ourselves from the dominant party in the state?
 These things are worth serious con. sideration. The organization of the party in this city and county has q fight that should be made along cer- tain lines. Unless partisan lines are worth something they should be wiped out. If they are worth some thing that fact should be established to the end that the supremacy of the party may be proven.

TRADE COMMISSION
 EFFECTIVE TODAY
GIVEN THE AUTHORITY TO iN- VESTIGATE INTO ALL LINES
 OF BUSINESS.
This is the Board which the Business
 Lines Protested Against so Strong ly when Bill was Before Congress.

Washington, March l5.- The sec. ond great governmental agency ere. 2ted by congress since the admins traion of President Wilson began will come into being at noon tomorrow when Joseph r. Davies of Wisconsin, Edward N Hurley of uIiuojs, N- liam J. Harris of Georgja, William H. Parry of Washington and George
 RuDlee Of New Hampshire. are sworn iu as members of tha federal trade commission with farreachiug powers of supervision over American business enterprises
 As was the ease with the fedora. reserve board there will be only the simplest ceremonies in connection with the organization Of the trade commission The members will take the oath in Mir. Davies present of. flee as commissioner of corporations.
 Chief Justice J. Harry Coyuetou of the supreme court of the District of Columbia, will administer the oath. completing the work he began as a member Of congress when be m,r0- duced the bill creating the comm sion. Later in tbe week the conn. missioners will be received by prc7i dent Wilson.
 All of the commissioners were in Washinetou today engaged in prehmj. nary conferences. Mr. Davies, whose apgoium mo holds for seven years and who will undoubtedly be the chairman of the commission. said Che first formal meeting would immcd.- ately follow the induction of the members into office. From that time on the commission win be in daily session, setting its machinery in mo. ton
 No anuomcecut as to be first problem to be attacked has been made, but Commissioner Davies has been in frequent conference both with the president and AuorueyGou- eral Gregory and it is certain that definite program of acton has been suggested
 Through the absorption Of inc bU. reau Of corporations in the commerce. department by the new commission its work of organization will be greatly simplified. The office staff and records of that bureau trans forred to the commission and furnish a working force already orgaulzcd and equipped with mucn information as 10 the corporations with which the commission win deal
 It will be the duty of the commis. sion to classify these corporations and formulate regulations and rules as provided for in the trade com. mission act; the declared purpose of the act being to establish regulated competitiou among concerns engaged in interstate transactions.
 The act also authorizes the conn mission to investigate trade matters in foreign countries as they may af feet the foreign trade Of the United States In his speech at Indianapo lis two months ago President Wilson called attention to this provision, say ing it endowed the commission wilh the powers of tariff board among i.s other duties.
 While there has been no indication that tho commission proposes to iu- yoke these powers immediately and begin a study of tariff problems gen orally it is possible that efforts will be made to advise the next congress as to the effect Of certain specific
