 Fert Smith. Feb. l9. l know Of no sEate in the United States in which tta possibilities of developing wealth Srsm natural resources are greater ihsn they are in Arkansas This Is sha declaration of pr. Bradford Knapp. Eszu of the agricultural college Uni xersity Of Arkkansas, in an address asiIvered before the Fort Smith Busi- ness Mems Club. of which he was a guest at monday luncheon Thurs asT
 ar. knapp had declared
 -g know of only one way to get rnalth, and that Is to get 1t out oi Ase ground, directly or indirectly. The power to secure the wealth de- aeuda wholly upon men of vision; not anna riSe men of the farm, but the issannss men as well, this assertion gneSening the declaration of Arkan- <zss possibilities
 < Keynote Of the address was q fsrceful portrayal of the danger to asw eotton grower and the general aeifare of Arkansas and a warning aeasnst punging in cotton produc- fsan under the inspiration of present saigb prices for the staple. The speak nr sketched the foreign market situa- 1ipa with it's future possibilities which mo man can now forecast as one ele- nleuf of danger to the cotton grower. Me Eiieu pricked the bubble of high ssxfan prices by showing by actual sta szirucs that the money from 1919 cot slen would buy no more of several staples named than 1913 cotton at the llHrn prevailing prices.
 The speaker declared that "a pound, ma acre. bale, or 1919 cotton will buy iess hay. less other food and feedstuffs hsue sse pound. the acre. the bale of HHs cotton, when the famous buy-a-. saIe" movement was in swing. Con- frasting these conditions, pr. knapp ssked forcefully what would have hap iseasa to Arkansas during the cur uam and past year, had this state had au diversified farming to produce food end feeds for the state, and been nampelled to pay the soaring prices ar food and feed grown in other nAtes. He declared the only safe spsrse this year is for Arkansas to naintain its food and feed produc- sisu at high levels and again depend Hpon cotton and other crops for cash xFsources
 -This is critical year" said he, and not the time to turn our backs sn the experience of the recent years aud plunge into ventures of which SC man can see the end"

MAY TRY OWN CRIMINALS.
Entente to Let Germany Conduct Tri-
 als-Intern Ex-Kaiser.


 London, Feb. 17.-Germany has been informed she may try men ac- cused by the Allies, while Holland may intern William of Hohenzollern and satisfy the Allied powers. Notes to this effect have been sent to Berlin and The Hague by the Supreme Allied Council.
 Trials of Germans under charges preferred by the powers will be under close surveillance by the Allies, who will not waive their rights in case there is suspicion of unfairness or of a miscarriage of justice. The powers will not intervene physically in the conduct of the cases agaist the accused Germans, but will leave their disposi- tion in the hands of the Supreme Court of Leipsig.
 Holland is rebuked for her failure to express in her first reply to the AL lies her disapproval of the crimes com mitted by the former emperor, and is reminded she must assume responsi- bility for Count Hohenzollern and his family and for dangerous propaganda that may be carried on from Dutch soil

 Little Rock, Feb l8.--Senator John a. Carter, private secretary to Gov srnor Brough has received number tsf inquiries whether an act was passed sf the recent session of the legislature 9nrmitting cities of the second class and incorporated towns to levy tax sa automobiles for the maintenance of saeets and alleys. In reply he calls zfEcntion to Act 54, which is a general law amending Act 2S9 of 1919, not in- xzhdated by the ruling of the Supreme Court.
 The Act provides that "cities of the kxt class and cities of the second ssiass and incorporated towns are au- th0rized to require residents of said rifles of the first class and cities of ttte second class and incorporated tnsns, for the privilege of keeping and usng motor vehicles, to pay tax not ia exceed s5 per annum for each motor Fshicle defined in this act; said fund Ehus collected to be used exclusively sE said cities in the construction, re- par or maintenance of the streets, all 4rys or public ways of said cities, pro wHssd the same shall not apply to the aszs=v;h District of Logan county.

independent candidates. are threat
ened, and if they materialize much
more bad blood will be created. with
possible disaster at the polls in No

And disaster not alone to the state
ticket. If the trouble should extend TO

portant state in the republican calcu-
lations, and the loss of its electoral
vote would be loss, indeed
Moreover, if this factionism con-
tinues it will be widely advertised, and
certain to have depressing effect in
adjoining states. The republican cam
paign in New Jersey and Connecticut
will reflect it, and campaigns in other
states
Republican factionism, originating
in New York. brought ii both Grover
Cleveland ans Woodrow Wilson. A
snarl in 1919 gave the governorship to
Mr.. Cleveland, made him a national
quantity, and paved the way to the
White House for him. A republican
split, directed from New York, gave
Mr.. Wilson the election in 1912, and
republican split in California in 1916
gave him his second term.

faetionism this years Present pros

Betting odds in New York are two to
one against the democratic ticket, with
little Cox money in sight. But this
will not continue unless somebody gets
grip on the situation and straightens
things out. Maybe Mr. Root when he
returns can accomplish the task. He
is expected home soon.

Germany Agrees.

When the German commissioners
were in consultation with the allies
recently at Spa they justified their OBJ
jections to certain features of the
agreement proposed on the ground
that the reichstag would never ratify
them. Much was made of this posi-
bility. Yesterday, however, the reichs-
tag, by an overwhelming majority, ap-
proved the agreement made at Spa in
I. esolution presented jointly by the
t<.,.e coalition parties and the ma
joricy socialists. declaring that "the
reichstag duly appreciates the motives
which actuated the government in
signing the agreements at Spa"
With all the fulminations of dele
gates the Germans have always signed
at the last pinch. They have always
agreed to the terms that were insisted
upon, no matter how violent were their
objections or how dire the prospect of
reaction at home. They are, indeed, in
a state of mind to sign and agree to
anything rather than have a renewal
of the war or the occupation of their
territory by allied troops. They want
no more war.
In truth, the bugaboo of home oppo-
sition and reaction has been overdone.
1t is true that the German political
situation is difficult. There are so
many parties, of such a diverse range
of policies, that a governing bloc is
hard to secure. But there is one policy
that makes for a working majority at
all times, and that is the policy of
peace. Germany is genuinely afraid
today of allied intervention on the one
side and bolshevik encreaehment on
the other, and realizes, doubtless as
never before, that the best friends she
has today are the allied powers.

stor New, who is in charge of the

there must be considerable demand

The attendance everywhere will make

probably be above the campaign aver
age.
Under the old order, political meet
ings, as rule, were stag affairs. The
speakers being men and the audiences
composed of men, the tone of the dis
cussions was sometimes a little "free,"
the illustrations and anecdotes a shade
of color.
That, necessarily, will be corrected
now. Everything must conform to the
new order, which will bring men and
women together for an exchange of
views about matters of government,
and give to all such meetings a quality
