RAILROADS ARE
KEPT RUNNING
S. P. Passenger Agent Says
There's Plenty of Money
and Fine Crops.

J. F. Sullivan, assistant general pas
senger agent at Houston, Tex, for the
Southern Pacific lines in the city on
a regular trip. said Friday: business
is heavier this year than ever before,
and may be explained by a number
of different causes. Many people are
leaving the east to escape the unusual
cold, and many people who might be
travelling to Europe are seeing their
own country. There Is more money in
the country than heretofore. and it is
resulting in a tremendous migration
westward of people who live east Of
the Mississippi.
Then, too, the good crops in north
Texas. and especially in east Texas,
the best in years. has resulted in more
LEGAL travel than in ordinary years
The increased price Of cotton has aid
ed the railroads. People are learning
that truly fine way to spend their
money is to spend it in travelling Ger
tain lines Of statesmen are more on
the road than before, principally those
connected with war interests

BRITONS HOLD
THE NEAR EAST
Prof. Fielding Shows I'm
portance of Drives, Break
ing the Kaiser's Power.

The importance from military, po-
liticaI an deconomic standpoints, Of
the British drives in the near east
was the subject Of an interesting talk
BY Prof. John Fielding before the
Kiwanis club at its weekly meeting
Friday noon at the Modern cafe
Prefaeing his talk with a historical
exclamation Of how Alexander the
Great, julius Caesar and Napoleon
realized that a world empire depended
on the control of the near east ana
predicting that the modern Alexander
the great would meet an END Just IKE
the ancient one. Prof Fielding showed
how by the capture OF Bagoad ana o.
Jerusalem, and the territory ABOUT
each. Great Britain has preserved the
military routes Of the east for the al
dies.
The question would be asked. the
speaker suggested, why England olu
not call on the Japs and Hindus 70
come in by this route. 1T would be
dangerous, however" he said, to tam
per with the Oriental mind To call
in the Orientals to help settle
white mans fight would be a danger
Gus proceeding" He then showed
how admiral Perry's visit brought
out the japanese and predicted that
the same might happen with the
Hindus.
OF far more Importance was the po-
licical significance OF the British near
eastern successes. The British empire
broken. but a plan for the restora-
ton OF the Arabs into Mohammedan
supremacy, now held by the Turk,
has been made by England Arabs
who gave birth TO Mohammed, hate
the Turks and always talk Of the
good old days OF the eaIipns n 5ss-
dad The British have promised Bag
dad to the Arabs and meanwhile have
encouraged the organization OF the
kingdom of Hejaz, headed by a prom
inent Arab and destined to eventually
control the Mohammedan world, as
friend of the allies. So q division has
been effected in Mohamme dan FORCES
and holy war" is impossible
Pan-Germanism Lost Dream
As to the economic results, Ger
many induced her business men to
support the government in the war
through a promise TO bring back more
trade for them from the Orient, but
the British drives have prevented
this, and when the German business
man comes to that realization. his
support Of the war VIII cease. said
the speaker
Pan-Germanism. which would rule
the world through a chain OF en-
pires from Berlin to Bagdad. IS lost
dream. the speaker concluded
KfwHnfana Vote Dry
on suggestion OF Rev P r knick-
erbocker that a secret ballot be taken
showing what individual Kiwanians
present thought on the prohibition
question, was adopted It was said
that the press should not report that
there were 81 dry and only Il
wet" votes, one spoiled ballot read
ing dry at home. wet downtown"
c NJ Harvie was the gladhander
OF the day, while J. ". Kirkpatrick
donated the attendance prize. lap
robe. which was won BY G. T Moore
Frank P. Jones' a new member, was
introduced.
President kirkpatrick suggested
that every member pay his 1917 poll
