SHOULD UPHOLD
 THE PRESIDENT
So Says Senator Kirby Of Arkansas In His Reply to Republican At
 tacks On Administration.

Washington, D. C., Jan. 22.-Sena- tor Kirby of Arkansas, replying to an attack of the administration by Republicans, during the debate in the Senate on the $1O,000,0O0 bill to relieve famine sufferers in Europe, agreed that the presidents influence be not disparaged at the very time when his support should be the great est.
 'We have finished this war, so far as the fighting is concerned" he said, "but the most important part of it still remains to be done. We must settle the matter finally and for the future, for our own and for the worlds benefit. Let it be the ex- pression of Congress as to whether we will back up our representative in the peace conference.
 'There is a growing fear in this country, because of dissension ex- pressed here, that we are not going to insist upon our rights in the peace conference. Has not the head of the Navy Department said that we must build the greatest navy in the world There has been distrust manifested by the military branch in saying that we must maintain large military establishment and also by some of the senators here in saying that we must have universal military train ing. Why? Because of the fear ev- idently that the freedom of the seas will not be properly safeguarded in the worlds peace conference.
 "If we shall have the greatest navy in the world, it will make no difference to us, of course, about the principal of the freedom of the seas. "Our representatives on the ground, our treasury has been ex- pended, our soldiers have nobly laid down their lives, the war has been fought and won. Now, let us con clude the peace terms and close 1t out successfully. Our representative, the president, has said that 1t can best be done by this contribution to alleviate the suffering of the peoples of the nations of the world, and we are the people to supply it.
 "Shall we disparage the influence of the president by refusing to fol- low his recommendations at the very time when it ought to be the great est?"

CuldlDeH FuDOYS Bonus
 For Discharged Soldiers

For the second time the Arkansas Senate has voted not to pay mileage and expenses of circuit judges and chancellors when they are holding court away from home. Senator Caldwell led the fight for such a measure in the Senate Wednesday,, and was ably assisted by Senators Moncrief, Owens, Cazort and others. They argued that the court officials were too poorly paid to hold court in the counties other than those in which they live, as often as should be-
 The opponents to the bill argued that the constitution prevents a raise in the salary of these officials, and that such would be the effect if the Caldwell bill became a law. The bill failed to pass on a tie vote, after which Senator Alexander changed to the negative in order to move a re- consideration.
 To prevent horse racing within three miles of church or school house is the text of a bill introduced in the Senate late Wednesday by Senators Wood, Wilson and Me Cough. The bill is apparently aimed at the Hot Springs race meet.
 A bill by Representative Hold proposes to abolish the Railroad and Tax Commissions, and to create in their stead the Arkansas Corpora tions Commission, of three members to be appointed by the governor at salary of $4,200 year each. The ex- penses of the Commission, to the ex- tent of $30,000 annually, are to be borne by the public utility corpora tions of the state, which shall be as- sessed for that purpose. All matters relating to franchises, service, exten- sions, improvements, and other things pertaining to public utilities

Efforts Will Be Made to Readjust the Internal Problems of Russia
 and Provide Stability.

Paris, Jan. 22-Russian factions have been asked to declare truce and to send delegates to meet repre- sentatives of the five great powers in meeting at which efforts will be made to readjust the internal prob lems of Russia and provide for the establishment of stable government in that country. This action was ta- ken today by the supreme council of the five great powers and follows the suggestion of President Wilson.
 Announcement of the formation of a Russian policy followed quickly af- ter the agreement of the supreme council on the method it will pursue in handling the Polish situation. It was agreed to send a mission of eight delegates into Poland to study conditions there and to meet leaders of the different factions. The dele gates will represent the United States, Great Britain, France and Italy, each nation selecting two del- egates, one military and the other civil.
 General Pershing, who is on 10- day tour of encampments at the front has been summoned to Pa ris. It is said his presence is re- quired in the solution of the Russian and Polish problems.

REQUEST IF LATE
 ISAAC GOLDMAN
Newport Relief Society Is Remem- bered By Former Resident Of
 The City.

A few days ago the Independent reproduced an article taken from the St. Louis Globe Democrat, having reference to the will of the late Isaac Goldman, but in it no mention was made of any bequest to Newport or Jackson county. However, we have received communication from Mr.. Norman c. Wolff, who is in a posi- tion to know the contents of the will, in which he calls attention to the fact that our. community was not for gotten. MT. Goldman, who was a most charitably inclined man felt that great good was being acconl- plished through the Relief Society, and also knew that their funds often times ran low, therefore his bequest to the city was through them, as one of the items listed below will show.
 The following are the bequests to charity, contained in the will of MT. Goldman:

 Jewish Dispensary, St. Louis, Mo-. $1OO0.
 The residue of the estate is to be held in trust for certain purposes un- til the death of Mrs. Goldman, after which:
 The Jewish Hospital of St. Louis; Mo, is to receive a two-twentletn (2-20) portion thereof.
 The Federation of Jewish Chari- ties. St. Louis, Mo, is to receive one-twentieth (1-20) portion thereof.

OpecldI Co lnuepenuent.
 Little Rock, Jan. 22.-Again We'd nesday the Senate refused to see things the same as the House and de- clined to pass upon concurrent res olution memoralizing Congress to pass bill to pay the soldiers for six months after their discharge. Mem bers of the senate took the stand that it would disorganize labor con- ditions, particularly among negro field hands. Senator Alexander pro- posed a modification by which the men who found employment should be dropped from the roll. Senator Caldwell, who fought for the adop- tion of the resolution, declared that he would favor giving the bonus to the men who did go to work. Other opponents declared that the men who wanted to go to work has no diff culty in finding positions. The res olution was finally postponed for several days, and indefinite postpone ment being thus avoided.
 East Arkansas senators are op- posed to any change in the date of the Democratic primary, which will place it in the spring months. They favor the summer and so strenuously op- posed committee amendment to the King bill Wednesday afternoon that it was taken off. The King bill un- dertakes to change the primary date to the last of August. The con- mittee on Elections sought to make it the last Tuesday in March. The East Arkansas senators declare there is continual high water in their section at that time and the people cannot get to the polls.
 It was finally suggested that the Assembly did not have the right to change law initiated by the people and the amendment was withdrawn.

AMERICAN MEN NOT LIKELY TO RETURN TO
 FRANCE FOR A WIFE.

New York, Jan 21.--Are American men who have been overseas going back to marry French girls?
 "No," is the answer of 14 out of 15 returned officers, according to this subject.
 The consensus of opinion of those interviewed gives the reason thus: The French girl is not what Ameri- can men call pal. She knows how to cook, sew, make love. She can be sweetheart. She is not a pal. Her horizon too often is limited to the home. Her life is lived within doors. She can never replace the American girl for all around intelligence, activ- ities and ambitions. Most of all the American men miss in her the play fellow they have known at home the girl with the tennis raquet, the girl who loves to hike long miles and to swim and ride.
 Will the men go back to France?
 Absolutely say the returned Americans. But that is because of the call of Paris, the carefree life in the cities over there, the thrill and the ormance of the atmosphere of France. In fact, most of the men are coming back to marry the girls they left behind, and then they prob ably will try to return to France and take their American brides for a honeymoon trip.

HEIN|E GR0H, WHO DAT ES FROM 1913,
IS OLDEST RE D IN POINT OF SERVICE

Young Is at loss for an explana-
ton of his failure to hit at tina pace
he set for himself at the start OF the
season. However. he has continued
to plug away at the ball and though
he has lost number of hits recently
because of excellent plays on the part
of opposing fielders, he apparently is
getting back to his normal stride.
One OF the few players to hold his
own with the willow. as the figures
indicate, Is the Great Zim, who has
been moved up to the cleanup posi-
ton in the batting order. Heinie is
not slamming the ball as he did two
years ago, when he virtually batted
the Giants to a pennant, but he is
doing pretty well just now.
Chase had risen from obscurity to
the 300 class in six weeks drive,
but slumped for the simple reason
that an injury to his right wrist, sus-
tanned in the recent series in St. Louis,
made it impossible for him to prop
erly grip a bat. There is no logical
reason for the failure of the other
members of the club to hit in the
manner expected of them.

the Reds longer than any OF the
other players. He Joined the Cincin-
natl team in 1913.
In point Of age. Sallee and Daubert
are oldest players now working under
Pat Moran. Each has celebrated his
thirtyfourth birthday. Ray Fisher
is thirty.two and Sherwood Magee
was thirty-three last week. Ivy
Wingo has been catching for the
Reds since 1915. Rariden is another
veteran who has been playing big
league ball since 1912.
Reuther, Ring, Eller, Rath Kopf,
Roush and Neale are comparatively
young men, who have developed rapid
ly since the new Miracle Man succeed
ed Christy Mathewson at the helm.
In the early days of the season,
when the Giants pennant chances
were brightest, it seemed as if the
power that lay in their bats might
carry McGraw's men to the cham
pionship in spite of mediocre pitch
ing.
When it came to the test
when the club had either to clinch its
hold on first place or slip back under
the force of the Red attack-it was
the Giants hitting and not he pitch
ing that failed to hold up.
A glance at recent lists of the
National league batting averages
tells the story in compact and ire
futable form. According to these
figures, during the week ending last
Thursday, Larry Doyle lost points
George Burns lost 5, Ross Young

Kauff lost II, Arthur Fletcher lost
II, Heinie Zimmerman gained 3, AL
Baird lost 8. Mike Gonzales lost ~
and Frank Snyder did not either gain
or lose.

only two of the men counted upon
to do bit of hitting behind the pitch
ing which the club is now receiving
succeeded in lettering their average
over the span Of week--a week that
meant much to them and their pen
nant hopes and which led up to the
all important series with the Reds.
Young's slight gain marked a halt
in a disastrous and unexplainabl
slump into which the Texas flyer
tumbled some time ago and in the
course Of which he slipped from a
position in the thick Of the fight for
the leagues batting honors right out
of the 300 class.

After one game had been called off on

seven straight by defeating the Phil
lies here Monday, Z to 3, making the
eighth consecutive victory for Moran's
championship aggregation. and giving
the Reds a lead OF eight full games
over the Giants.
The Reds took advantage OF the
poor fielding offered in support OF the
Phillie pitcher, and in spite of the fact
that Smith allowed but six scattered
hits. they piled up big lead.
Poor defensive work started the
Reds scoring in the third, and two runs
were made on a series OF boobies, and
a hit. The Phils allowed five runs
in the seventh on one lone double by
Rousch. Three passes were granted
Red swatsmiths in this round, and
with a pair Of errors, the game was
set for Moran's men.
Ruether, who had been pitching
good ball until the seventh inning,
blew. far into the ethereal realm and
walked four men in this round, after
one run had already been scored. Ring
was then sent to the rescue, and re-
tired the side with no further damage.
A Phil rally in the ninth was cut
short by slow roller from Luderus.
which was easily managed by Heinie
Groh.
