The railroads declare they want arbitration of differences with em- ployes as to wages; railroad officials declare the trainmen are the best paid of any railroad employees, and that clerks, accountants and others are more deserving of wage increases. But none has been heard to suggest that the clerks, accountants ct al, be paid more or that the question be submitted to arbitration. HOW about that?

SECRET "PORK.,

Seeing the splinter in the other fellows eye without noting the beam in ones own is universal failing. Take the case of Chicago, for in stance, which boasts that it does the greatest postal business in the coun- try, a large part of which is made ur of mail-order business from the rura districts.
 Only a little over ten years ago q new post office was completed there But since then the newspapers there have decided a larger structure is needed, and pliant congressman from that section pulled the wires.
 At the same. time the Chicago papers turned handsprings in yelping about pork" in connection with the construction of postoffices in towns elsewhere. Some of Uncle Sam's postoffices in the small towns are no better than their railroad stations which is placing them down pretty low but these facts didn't for a sec ond deter the Chicago papers from emitting their howl about pork"
 But when it came to protesting about the contemplated expenditure in Chicago-ah! that was another matter, which came under the head Of necessary public improvements!
 TO purchase a site for a new Chicago postoffice in Chicago the mu- nlficent sum of $6,00O,oO0 has been made available by congress. This surely is mint of money to spend for a building site. but not a single Chicago anti-"pork" paper has men, toned the word pork" in connection herewith.
 The irony of the situation lies in this: The $6,0OO,O00 for a site-and the $1o,Ooo;OOO or more for a build lhg-wlll come from the pockets of taxpayers everywhere, including the residents of small towns, villages and country districts; also including those Who help to boost Chicago's enorm. ous postal receipts through mail-ordet : trading. And the big new postoffice wouldn't be necessary-if indeed it is were it not for mail~order tradinS

EXPLOITING ADVANTAGES OF
 CITY AND COUNTY.

The Pine Bluff chamber of com merce trustees yesterday decided upon an aggressive campaign for new in- dustries, better farming and addi- tional good roads. The trustees dis played wisdom in deciding to inau- gurate it's campaign immediately be- cause there will exist in the next few months opportunities for securing , new industries and immigration which probably never again will be present cd. The better farming and gooi roads campaigns must be conducted at home, but the better farming movement can be greatly aided by bringing to Jefferson farmers of the Middle West and New England states where diversification is more extens- lively practiced than it is in Arkan sas-yet.
 In the movement to secure new ill. dustries and new people the chamber of commerce could hardly find bet ter way to put the advantages of city and county before the people it is de- sired to interest than by cooperating with County Judge Philpot and the lumber interests for agricultural and industrial exhibits on .the Arkansas on Wheels" train, which is to tour the East, Northeast, North and Middle West next month. Exhibits on this train, together with representatives to bring them to the attention of the thousands who will visit the train and properly prepared and printed statements of facts. showing what is being accomplished and the opportuni- ties existing for profitable farming and industrial enterprises, constitute one Of the very vest means to insure the success of the chamber of com merce's campaign for rev industries and better farming.
 The prompt determination of the chamber of commerce to throw it's strength into the movement for ade. quate representation on the "Arkaa- sas on Wheels" train furnishes addi- tion proof of the great benefit to the community of such an organization The county and lumber interests are doing their part, but to obtain the adequate representation more general support is required It is now assured that this support will be accorded.
 This should prove one of the best investments in county and community development that Jefferson and Pine Bluff have ever made.

"PAYlNG UP, NECESSARY.

Newspaper publishers everywhere are being compelled to ask delinquent subscribers to pay up" The increased cost of producing a paper makes this Imperative.
 It has been 9 custom with publish CTS to ''carry" subscriptions that were long past due. A spirit of accommo- dalton and willingness to please-a characteristic with the business brought such system-or lack of system--about.
 No merchant. however, could ever afford to permit bills to lapse two and three, and sometimes five and six years, as frequently has been the case with many publishers.
 And the queer part of this credit system has been that "prominent citi- zens" have been among the number exacting such remarkable favors.
 Publishers everywhere are putting their plants on strictly cash basis. ms is only just and reasonable. Only those who want something for nothing Will object. It is matter of abso- iute necessity with publishers, who must have the money due them when they can use it to advantage. Capi- tal tied up in the pockets of horde of delinquent subscribers, who may or may not pay their bills, is a poor way to woo prosperity.
