RED CROSS RELIEF FOR
GERMANS.

The project of helping civilian SUI
ferers in Germany thru agency Of the
Red Cross is at a standstill. The ac-
tual situation doesn't seem to be
clearly realized in this country. The
allies have granted permission for
shipping the necessary supplies into
Germany, but only on condition that
the Red Cross itself shall have charge
of their distribution.
1t happens that the American Red
Cross is able to get great quantities of
supplies for the German civilians, bat
has difficulty in getting the money to
equip and support units of its own
organization to go to Germany and
superintend the distribution. Citizens
who are eager to contribute to the re-
lief funds balk when it comes to pay
ing the incidental expenses under the
conditions imposed. Just as soon rs
this attitude is changed, and generous
Americans finance a few Red Cross
units, the relief work will begin.

CalOmel Claims
Many Victims
Science Has at Last Discovered a Sub
stitute for it Called Lemolac.

Very few realize how many people
are salivated by calomel each year.
Every one who has taken this danger
Gus drug knows that it gripes, sickens
and is very pleasant t. take, but all
do not know that while it acts violent
ly on your liver, that it softens your
bones and is liable to salivate you
Many doctors dislike to prescribe il
as they would any other poisonous
drug and some doctors refuse to give
it to their patients. It is for these
reasons that men Of science have been
patiently searching for substitute
for dangerous calomel and have at last
discovered medicine that possesses
the merits Of calonel without its
dangerous and unpleasant effects. This
new medicine is called Lenaolac and IS
now on sale at Central Pharmacy,
Pine Bluff, Ark, and all live druggists
who please their customers.
P. S.-If you forget the name spell
calomel backward. (Advt.)

PINE BLUFF Is BEST COTTON
MARKET.

l. E. Moore of Rison shipped to Pine
Bluff the first bale of 1916 cotton re-
ceived here, and was rewarded with Il
bonus of sos, and price of 13.4
cents per pound for the '550-pound
bale, bringing the total amount he re-
ceived to S178.75, or 81 IL cents per
pound.
What is believed to have been the
first bale Of 1916 cotton grown in Ar
kansas was shipped by NJ. M. Morton
of Southeast Arkansas to Greenville
Miss, where it brought 20 IA cents
per pound.
The Morton bale was sent out sew
eral days before the Moore bale, anc
the difference obtained by the grower
serves to emphasize once again that
Pine Bluff is the best market for cot
ton grown in this territory.

Cuban Congress Has Unusual Reason
for Continuing az Work Until
After Elections.

tGorresunndcnc.. Of the Associated Press
Havana, Cuba, Aug. 1.-The Guaah
congress, which has practically endea
It's active sessions, has achieved haT0-
" am serious legislation. mere
have been many weeks when Guof-
um vas not present. and the few
sessions recently held have been d.
voted 10 such bills as seemed llkelH
TO be vetoed by the president, one
such was compel the president 20
diyest himself Of his functions OF o.
fee Ga days before election. Wnlcn
the president vetoed. and another was
TO provide for the payment OF CLAIMS
CT soldiers and civilians n connection
with the revolution OF 1895. which tae
president has indicated his IN entlon
TO veto in case it passes the senate.
1t appears probable that congress,
while not transacting any business.
will remain theoretically in session
until after the elections in November
The reason IS that the members hold,
by curious Interpretation OF the con
stitution, that their congressional
immunity from arrest eX-ends TO all
civil and criminal onenses so long
as the body remains in session.
Representatives Of British oil IN
terests in Mexico are here Tor the pur-
pose, it is said, Of influencing the
passage Of Legislation for the adnis-
sion of petroleum into Cuba free OF
duty. AS congress is unlikely to
transact any business until the cleo
ton is over ii is improbable that
there will be any discussion OF the
proposition until the next session.

THE AGE OE LIGHT.

1t is a far cry from the darkness
of cities twenty-five years ago to the
lighted, spangled, splendid sparklers
of the present
1t appears that the worlds fair in
Chicago of 1893 proved to the nation
the beauties of light. Since then the
lighting of even the smallest of towns
have ornamental street lights, while
those that haven't are longingly
figuring on the day when they too
may appear nice and bright.
Not only in municipal lights, but in
the lighting of private establishments
the onward push to the brighter side
has been most noteworthy. Stores
are brilliantly lighted where once they
were clothed in semi-darkness; cleo
trio signs splash their dazzling glare
at the pedestrian at every turn. The
electric companies have preached the
creed of more light" until they have
induced everyone to believe in their
gospel; hence we have even better
lighting in the home-not only in the
city and town, but also in the rural
home. The latter may not have cleo
trio light, but there are numberless
methods of rural lighting on the mar
ket that make a soil-tiller's home--il
he takes advantage of these improved
systems-as bright as that of hi:
brothers in town.
We insist on having more light il
our homes in the daytime also; mor'
sun, more air, less germ-engenderins
darkness. Day and night, therefore
we circulate amid more light. Our OUT
look on life should, accordingly, b.
brighter, more cheerful, more Opt
mistic. For the light that with sucl
increasing intensity bathes US in it
glow. should go further than the re
tina-it should have an influence OF
our hearts and on our souls.
f"Let there be light" was one of tn
first commands ever given.

PRESS COMMENT.
WHAT THE TRAINMEN DEMAND.

The railway managers are flooding
the country with publicity regarding
the increase in wages" that is being
demanded by the members of the four
railway brotherhoods who are en-
gagged in actual handling of trains. 1t
seems the railroad managers cannot
make an honest presentation Of this
issue any more than they can of the
rate question, the question of their
valuation, or their inside financing.
The railway employees are not ask
ing for an advance of wages. in
fact they are asking for the adoption
of a plan that will decrease the in
come of many Of them. They are
asking for an eight-hour day, instead
of being compelled to say out on the
road from II to Is hours
Their argument in favor of this
change is reasonable. They say that
passenger trainmen and fast freight
trainmen would not be materially af-
fected by such rule as few Of them
are now on the road more than eight
hours. The men who would be af-
fected are the trainnen who handle
dead" freight trains. Where men
are on the road usually the limit per-
mitted by the federal laws-16 hours
and often longer than that before
they get back to their homes. Their
expenses on the road must come out
of their own wages.
The greatest evil, however, is the
physical and mental effect upon men
working that length of time. It needs
no argument to prove that after eight
or 10 hours continuous strain, ones
physical and mental activities get
sluggish. 1t is during these periods,
say trainmen, that wrecks most fire.
quently occur; and then the railroad
| managements blame it on to the
"carelessness" of the railroad en-
ployes.
Even the traveller in the Pullman
! gets tired after 10-hour ride during
! the day. But the man in the engine
cab must keep fresh; he must keep
his mental activities keen for he must
see every signal, keep in mind every
order, and when he enters a railroad
yard must know just what every one
| of all the way from so to 800 switch,
signal and block lights mean, and il
| they are as thew should be TO guaran-
| tee him a clear track. Yet eye fatigue,
is one of the first symptoms and re-
suits of long hours of work, and men,
tai dizziness comes close second.
Safety first" for the travelling public
demands that men on railroads be not
overworked.
There is yet another side-one
| which affects the commercial side OF
railroading. Why are some freight
trains handled with such speed that
men who handle them are not on their
runs over eight hours, while other
freight trains hauled with the same
class of motive power and over the
same right of-way, are IA to 20
hours clearing one division? Why is
a carload of fruit from 60 to Y hours
coming from New Orleans to Sioux
City, while carload of other freight
is three to four weeks?
Trainmen say the railroads so over
load dead" freight trains that they
cannot make their tide. This is donc
in order to increase the railroads
profit. This is why the trainmen WIKI
handle these trains must clay out" OF
sidings and at way stations, and be-
on their runs IA to 16 hours.
Trainmen also offer the hint to thu

The Nevada County picayune., 1916-11-30

The success of your town de- pends upon the public spirit of it's leading citizens. If the lead ing men are not willing to lay out abundantly their means, e. rect neat and attractive buildings advertise largely their business and the inducements offered Tn their town, and are not willing to patronize home trade and al, home industries, then no town, be it's advantages ever so great, can expect to grow or flourish. The natural advantages are great accessories to the growth of any place, but public spirit, backed up by common sense and energy, will turn the prarie into a flourishing town or trans form it into an elegant city.
The Nevada County picayune., 1916-11-30

The following is very truth ful remark: The man who grows up in his native town is regarded as a boy by his elders until he is well started down the declivity that ends in a hole. The stranger who comes into a place is more often pushed to the front than the young man who has grown up with the town. This is the reason why so many young men become dissatisfied with their home surroundings and long to cast their lot in oth- CT quarters.
