Optimistic Over Future
 of Northern Arkansas

Little Rock, July 22.-Burton Bunch who has just severed his connection with the Daily Herald of Harrison, to devote his time to the zinc mining in- dustry, has been in Little Rock this week. There is a number of Little Rock citizens interested in the pro perties he is promoting.
 MT. Bunch is very optimistic over the future of North Arkansas, espec- ially the -Four Mineral States of North Arkansas" the counties Boone Marion, Newton and Searcy. "Jack," |" high grade zinc ore, selling at $120 to $130 per ton, where year ago it was a hundred dollars cheaper, and silicate selling at $50, where it used to be unstable unless located on a rail- road, are bringing miners into the re- zion by the hundreds. Such activity has never before been known there, and scores of mines are being develop ed. Other mines that have been worked twenty-five years, their chief return being faith in the future and turning out large quantities of ore. Dumps that have been accomplishing for two decades are being hauled off to market and fetching fancy prices. The period of exploitation and real estate boosting has passed-the divi- dends are being reaped by those who have held on, and by new corners who put their money into the enterprise.

There is much speculation whether Gov. Hays will be . candidate for another term if MT. Carraway decided to enter. Gov.

The Latest German Victories
From the Westliche Post.

From the Westliche Post.
 The German advance into Russia is sweeping on irresistibly along line extending almost from the coast of the Black Sea to the Baltic. On this line. the Russians are beaten wherever they try to make a stand, and the pursuit IS pressed so energetically that they have no opportunity to rearrange their shattered columns. Already the eva cuation of Warsaw has been ordered by that great strategist, Grand Duke Nichols, and the fall of Riga seems imminent. When that has been ac- complished the Russ will have been eli minated at least for a considerable time, and 1t is not at all unlikely that the Czar will be anxious to conclude peace. London and Paris, at least seem to fear that this may happen, notwithstanding the agreement enter ed into by the three Powers, and they have occasion to tremble for, with Russia out of the way, Austria would easily dispose of Italy, while Germany would make Joffre's and French's great armies look positively foolish.

BATTLES TO SEAL.
 FATE OF WARSAW
German Emperor, in Confidence,
 Has Sent for Empress in Or
 der that a Triumphal Entry of State May be Made into City.

London, July 21.-A series of grea. battles, the result of which will seal the fate of Warsaw, is being fought to the northwest and south of that city. Having successfully retired to positions on the rivers and being well fianked by fortresses, the Russians have turned and are fighting desper- ately to check the Austro-Germans.
 North of the River Narew they delivered three fierce attacks yester- day from the fortress of Rozan, Pull tuzk and Novoge Georgievsk, the Germans who had taken one outwork of Rozan repulsed three attacks, ac- cording to Berlin, but apparently have been unable to progress further southward.
 Immediately west of Warsaw on what is known as the Blonie- Grojec line the Russians have suffered a re- verse and are retreating toward the Vistula. Further south the army of General Von Woyrich is making pro- gress toward the same river, which has been reached at one point. South of Ivangorod, Field Marshal von Mackensen, who is directing the of fensive between the Vistula and the Bug rivers, has reached the Russian lines, and here the greatest of all the battles is being fought for the possession of the Lublin-C Cholm rail way.
 On the resistance the Russians are able to offer along this front where the Germans are making their big |gest effort, probably depends the sue cess or failure of the Austro- Germans. Apparently they felt pretty certain of the outcome, for it is said that Elm peror William at Bozen, has sent for the empress in order to make a state entry into the Polish capital when it falls.
 Things are moving more quickly in Courland where the Germans claim successes all along the line, bring ing them within striking distance of Riga and the roads supplying the town from the south.
 There is another battle along the borders of Bessarabia, but how this is going the official statements do not say.
 The French have made another bid for the valley of the Fecht in the Vosges. They have delivered sever al attacks which have been partially successful, and have captured the heights dominating that valley from the east. About the same time the aviators dropped bombs on Kolmar. Beyond the German attack in the Ar gonne which the Germans claim met with success, and another German attack in the Apremont which the French assert was repulsed, only ar tillery engagements have occurred along the western front.
 The Italian offensive on the Isonzo continues and Rome reports further progress, particularly on the Carso plateau.
 When the South Wales miners learned of the settlement of the strike thousands of them returned to work. and tonight all the night shifts are working.
