SHARP WHEAT ADVANCE
Year-end Evening Up Trades Cause
Big Increase in December
Shorts Pay Dearly Today.

Chicago. Dec. 3O.-Year-end even
Ing up OF trades caused an unusually
sharp advance today of Decent Der
wheat. Shorts who had waited until
the last hour in which deliveries
could be made on contract for the
current month paid dearly for the
privilege.
In some cases bidders found it nee
essary to offer seven cents a bushel
more than yesterdays final quotations
and thus lifted the December price to
$1.68. The volume of such transac-
tions. however, was not large.

Commenting upon the efforts to Sc
cure the cooperation of the Pine Bluff
commercial interests with the county
Judge and the lumber manufacturers
to have the advantages of Jefferson
county and Pine Bluff properly pre-
scented to the people of those sections
to be traversed by the Arkansas on
Wheels" train, the Texarkana TeXar-
kanian says:
'The Pine Bluff Graphic is making
a jealous effort to induce the cham
Der of commerce of that city to secure
representation on the publicity train
Arkansas on Wheels Pine Bluff is
one of the leading cities Of the state
and the center of one of the richest
farming sections of the state 1t seems
strange that it's commercial organiza-
ton should need any urging on mat
ter of this kind The Young Mems
Business league of Texarkana has not
only secured a section of this train
to be filled with an exhibit of our re-
sources, accompanied by live wire
representative, but has also arranged
for full page of publicity in the 'Ar-
kansas-on-W Wheels edition of the Ar
kansas Democrat"
Because Pine Bluff is zone of the
leading cities Of the state and the
center of one of the richest farming
sections of the state;" because the city
offers unsurpassed advantages for adj
ditional industries, and for investors;
because the wealth Of the county and
city can be greatly increased by bring
ing in farmers to utilize the soil, and
climatic assets, and because it is to the
advantage of every one to have exist
ing opportunities exploited constitute
the best argument for proper repre-
sentation for Pine Bluff and Jefferson
county on the Arkansas on Wheels
train.
With one exhibit arranged for by
County Judge c. M. Philpot, and
another by the lumber manufacturers
certainly Pine Bluff people should not
"need any urging" to grasp an oppor-
tunity fraught with such possibilities
for further development of county and
city.

Amendment No. IL abolishes none
of the present functions of state gov
eminent. The voters elect members
of the legislature under amendment
No. - the same as they do now. 1t
changes none of the present methods
of election. 1t simply adds to the
power of the people in giving them
the power to veto at once laws they do
not approve, instead of letting them
be in operation two. or more years be-
fore they can be repealed.
It also gives the people, that is a
majority of them, the power to make
laws they want and which the legisla-
ture refuses CT fails to enact for
them, and it forbids the governor to
veto law passed by the voters, but

The agricultural societies of South

that new avenue of commerce will
be opened for South Africa farm pro-
duce. Committees have been appointed
to inquire whether Cape Colony Will,
for example, be able to compete with
the ranching enterprises of Liebig in
the Argentine and in Australia. Some
experiments are being tried in the
way of shipping eggs to London. The
demand has gone up seriously within
the last few weeks, owing to the GER
tain shortage in Russia. Denmark and
Switzerland. BY standardizing guam
titles and qualities the farmers hope
TO get at least slice of the internal
tional trade. The government will en-
