SOME DEMOCRATIC PROSPERITY

SOME DEMOCRATIC PROSPERITY.
Senator Chamberlain. in his address
delivered in Grants Pass Wednesday
evening. took full credit to the demo-
cratic party for the prosperity" that
has come to the country during the
past three years. He did not refer
to it as a leopard prosperity that hit
the country only in spots. nor did he
show that the many millions of dol
lars brought here through the in
strumentality of war orders found
their way largely into the Golfers of
those already rich. There has been
q wonderful impulse given to trade
and industry in the United States, an
impulse built upon the shedding of
European blood. 1t is an unnatural
condition, and with the ending OF the
war this mushroom prosperity must
come to an end. Then will come the
real test OF governmental policies.
Then the fallacy Of the Underwood
tariff win be proved. and Chamber
lain's argument that the tariff is no
longer an issue will be disproved
Ofncial figures, taken from the records
compiled by democracy itself. show
that the prosperity" of which demo-
cratic orators discourse has its foun-
dation upon war orders and not upon
natural conditions. The mills and the
factories are running overtime to
meet orders created by war. not to fill
the needs of peaceful America. Soon
these war orders must cease, then
unless there is a change Of policies

HUGHES AND PEACE.

We have heard in recent days
that the alternative of the policy OF
the present administration is war,
think the alternative of the present
administration Is peace with honor.
am a man devoted 10 the pursuits
of peace. We cherish the ideals Of
peace. We entertain no thought Of
aggression; We are not coyetous, We
are not exploiters, but We are Ameri-
cans, and American rights must be
maintained throughout the world.
That is the cornerstone OF our secu-
rity; that is the essential basis OF
peace. We are not courting struggle,
but | do say in all seriousness that
we have been living in a period OF
national humiliation.
Our citizens have been murdered
their property destroyed, and oui
commerce interrupted. The alterna
tive OF weak and vacillating policy
is not war; it is firm insistence or
known rights in a world where all ma
tons desire our friendship and W,

Little Rock

Little Rock
 Assessed valuation of all property in the state was more than $4,000 900 less in 1915 than in 1914, according to figures compiled by the State Tax Commission. The figures are taken from the reports of county assessors, all of which have been received. The decrease, members of the commits sion believe, is due to the failure of assessors to list personal property as fully as last year. Land values in 1915 show an increase of appropXi- mately $3,O00,000 over 1914, while per sonal property shows a decrease of nearly S7,000,000 The largest de crease was in moneys converted into bonds. This item fell off nearly so per cent, from S2,S37,536 to $4S7,2SS. Several items of personal property showed an increase.
 The commission has not compiled averages or percentages of real valua- tion by counties from estimates of the 1910 census. It is evident, how ever, by comparing the figures this year with those of last year that there will be a mide variation in the per cent of assessed valuation on the actual value The reports indicate that Ben ton county was assessed the lowest and Perry county the highest and that the range will be from approximately 30 per cent to 75 per cent.
 The assessors report from Crit tenden county shows that only 21 watches and 36 pianos were assessed in that county. In Pulaski county |, 405 watches and 1,34S pianos were as sessed In Benton county 1,94C watches and 1,58S pianos were as sessed.

"ANURIC!' NEWEST IN CHEMISTRY

This is a recent discovery of Doctor Pierce, head of the Inyalids Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y. Experiments for sev- eral years proved that there is no other eliminator of uric acid conpa- rable. For those easily recognized symptoms of infammation-as back ache, scalding urine and frequent uri- nation, as well as sediment in the urine, or if uric acid in the blood has caused rheumatism, "Anuric" acts quickly. In rheumatism of the joints, in gravel and gout, invariably the pains and stiffness which so frequently and consistently accompany the dis ease rapidly disappear.

THIRTY REPORTED DEAD
Great Confusion Followed Collision and 1t Was Long Before Definite Idea of Extent of the Disaster
 Could Be Had

Bradford, R. Thirty or more per- sons were reported to have been crushed or burned to death in a col l1slon Of trains on the New York. New Haven and Hartford railroad here. The accident occurred at 7:30 o'clock. and four hours later wrecking and hospital crews were said to have re- covered 30 bodies.
 The dead were in the rear car of a four-coach local train bound from Boston to New London, and which had stopped at the local station when 1t was run down by the Gilt Edge Ex press, bound from Boston for New York
 This coach was telescoped, set afire and burned. The car ahead also took fire and the flames, communicated tc the passenger station and freight house, destroyed both buildings. Ii was stated that there were 37 persons in the destroyed car, and that onl, six of these had been accounted fol several hours later.
 Great confusion followed the col llslon and it was long before a der n1te idea of the extent of the disaster could be had. AS the flames of tn, buring cars and buildings died out tht train yard was left in darkness ant those who went to the aid of the in jured worked under great difficulties.
 The only telegraph lines into tn town went out of commission with tn, burning of the station, and the onl, communication with the outside wa by single telephone wire. Over thi help was summoned from Providenc and New London, the former sendin wrecking train and physicians, an the latter city dispatching a hospita train.
