Riga was settled largely by German
merchants in the twelfth century and
when the war broke out, so per cent
of the population was Teutonic. In
fact major portion of the Baltic
coast was settled, by Germans and it
is here that the German plots were
Matched and the Kaiser's propaganda

PRAISES MURDERERs.

Among the legends pretty we'll
spread over this country and genera
w believed is that murderous U-boal
warfare was decided upon much
against the wishes of the kaiser.
We are given picture o! a war
, council in which the kaiser and his
former chancellor, Bethmann-Holwegs
held out to the last against the sub
marine assassinations. But we are
told the ruthless war lords and sea
lords practically forced the kaiser to
sanction the policy which so far has
not effected its purpose and has given
the German cause mortal blow by;
bringing America into the war.
There is reason to believe all this
is mere cock and bull stuff. The kali
ser wants to win the war. Revent!ow,
one of the most lingo of all German
military critics, practically says TIE
kaiser has to win if he Is to hold his
power and his thrown.
The head of the house of HohenZol-
lern probably knows this as we'll as
anyone. To win he is willing to try
any game and any policy. When his
experts convinced him England could
be brought to her kness within few
months in intense submarine war, be.
fore America could bring her great
forces into play, the kaiser quickly
gave his consent.
It Is time we Americans stop de-
luding ourselves into believing that
Wilhelm Hohenzellern is any better
than the men who surround him. He
is Just as ruthless, just as cruel, just
as callous to human suffering. He Is
playing for high stakes and is just as
desperate as any other gambler in
like position.
He has even keyed himself up to
the point where he ID willing to write
doggerel verse in celebration Of the
U-boat. It seems that not long ago
the Leipziger Illustrierte Zeitung had

lines attributed to the kaiser appear
ed therein, according to the Boston
Transcript:

Of king" The cause of the German
emperor has indeed fallen low when
his last argument is one that seeks to
elevate murderous piracy to the dig

comes very near being the very last
argument against a king-someth
that even the German people may

OVERWORkiNG CHILDREN

Dor law prohibits employing any child

commerce. 1t also forbids children IA

actioparies from Pennsylvania and the
cotton-spinning states of the South.
The first formal court attack upon it's
validity took place in North Carolina,
where children over IL have a per-

The case came before Federal
Judge Boyd of the western district Of
North Carolina, one Of the crustacean
survivals of an older day. He is u
and his thinking belongs to a past, a
dark, and an unprogressive age. He
is apparently convinced that parents
have a full right to say when and
where child shall work; that child
has an inalienable right to work; and
that when we try by law to improve
mankind, we should not invade family
rights. =
Boyd, insofar as he was able, has
knocked out the federal child labor
law. lie has called it unconstitution'
al and enjoined it's enforcement in the
western district Of North Carolina. He
held congress could regulate trade
among the states, but not the internal
condition of labor.
This will bring great rejoicing to
the North Carolina mill owners, where
so many men called for the draft
were rejected because of physical de-
fects sown in their youth in their
slavery in the mills.

has occurred in TeXarkana in a
long time was sprung Tuesday
morning when warrants were issued
against Arthur Gurley, who recently
qualified as sheriff of Miller coun-

several other well known citizens,
charging them with gaming. All
the accused parties pleaded guilty
in police court and were fined $40
in each case, except Sheriff Gurley,
whose case was continued.
1t is alleged that all the parties
were caught in a crap game by
Patrolman Walter Crowell about 2
o'clock Monday morning, when he
raided an East Broad street build

the tax commission for 1915 was
approximately 229 per cent of the
total assessment of the whole prop
erty of the state, but the figures
for this year are not yet available.
The total assessment this year is
little less than that of 1915, which
the commission explains as follows:
Three of the largest railway
systems operating in tie state, to-
gether with a large number of the
lesser ones, are in hands of receiv-
ers. There is also a falling off in
the net earnings of the street rail-
ways. as claimed by the owners, by
reason of automobile competition.
For this reason we made some re-
auctions in the assessment of some
of the railroads and in one street

new YORKER GETS
HOSPITAL PLACE

Little Rock, Dec. 29.-Dr. M. b.
Heyman of New York yesterday was
appointed by the state board of
control superintendent of the state
hospital for nervous diseases to sue
coed DR.. f. p. Bledsoe, who was
removed by the board and whose
removal was sustained in the SUI
preme court.
The contract given DR.. Heyman
is for four years at an initial sal
airy of $4,000 and an increase of
$500 each succeeding year for the
term of the contract. DR.. Heyman
will return to New York to arrange
personal affairs, and will assume
charge of the ehospital early in Jan
uary.
DR.. c. Arkebauer, who has been
acting superintendent since DR..
Bledsoes departure, probably will
remain in charge of the hospital UNI
til DR.. Heyman assumes control. J..
II. Rainey, a member of the board,
said yesterday that, so far as he
knows, DR.. Arkebauer will continue
as acting superintendent until DR..
Heyman takes charge, and DR.. Ar
kebauer said he has not yet been
advised in the matter by the board
and will continue to act unless the
board makes other arrangements.
DR.. Heyman was selected by the
board from a field of nine appli-
cants, all of whom are from large
institutions. He is native of
North Carolina, 46 years old, and
has been with the Central Islip
state hospital, Long Island, the
largest in New York, for 20 years.
Through competitive examina-
lions under the New York civil SER
vice law, he has been promoted
from junior physician through
higher positions to the position of
assistant superintendent of the New
York hospital, and is eligible for
the superintendency of any hospital
in New York.
