TRUtOCK WARNS PEOPLE AGAINST
 tNfMIES U. $.
Urges Loyal Americans to
 Guard Against Attempts to Create Dissention.

Endorsing editorials appearing in yesterdays issue of The Graphic, urging all loyal Americans to dis courage efforts to create dissension and discord, Walter N. Truloc,k who has periodically given freely of his time and money serving the govern ment in this critical period. writes of the dangers against which the American people. the people of Pine Bluff must ever be on guard. MT. Trulock is an American who has set a good example for all who want this nation to emerge victorious from the war for humanity. As chairman. of the hotel mems committee to provide cooks for the National army men at Camp Pike for the first six weeks after the men were, assembled he rendered. his country great service freely, gratuitously.
 Leaders of the nation agree inter- nal troubles are dangerous, and are bending every effort to prevent the tying of the governments hands in the war by averting strife and in- dustrial delays at home. As they point out, and as Mir. Trulock has himself demonstrated, it is a time for; all loyal American to make sac rifices, and especially a time when the hand of. greed and selfishness must be stayed.
 Danger at Home.

 Allow me to congratulate you up- on your editorial this morning, head ed. Nation Demands Unity It seems to me that 1t would be highly bene- ficial if editorials of this character appeared frequently in all papers, as it seems that the American, public have lived in peace and plenty so long and have grown to feel so se- cure in our rights, liberty and hap piness that we have grown careless of the dangers without and blind to those within, yet one of our fore fathers said, Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty e@
 Few < of us ever dreamed of the hideousness of the plans of the Ger man imperial government. On the contrary, we have always looked up- on it as kind and fatherly power, but since the outbreak of. the war we have been astounded to learn that she has been planning, plotting and building for fifty years to bring up on the world this frightful nightmare and all for the. benefit of a. small coterie. of aautQcrats who. aTe.t tdrMnA, with power. Youf M edft9rfal ''dii sHohenxoilernaf1 1fnde enburg' Co sure ly occupied the proper place. right beside this one, as they both bear the same message. What a sweet morsel it would be to the kaiser and his cohorts of paid spies (who are at work, in all parts of this country seeking to stir ,ur strife in our happy families)s should they succeed in their efforts to ere ate internal dissensions. How they would laugh and call us fools.
 We who live in. this section do moi realize the magnitude of this war, the adroitness of intrigue of the enem, under tho guise of friendship, nol the terrible power that we have te combat, nor their wonderful pre-. paredness and our woeful lack of it We think the other fellow will wir our battle. We must realize that il lis our fight. and that it is goins to be hard, terrific, long drawr out fight. 1t is indeed time fol Unity. and not one to promote oul own selfish interests. We must have no family quarrels. On the con. trary, we must, recognize the trouble maker as ap enemy to the republic
 and heed him not. If we allow Ger
 man intrigue to cause dissension ir
 our midst, our efforts will amour 1 to nothing, and defeat will be our.
 and. should we be fools enough tt
 allow such a thing, we ought to lose
