The races of mankind are five in
number—white, yellow, brown, red
and black, or the Caucasian, Mon
golian, Malayan. Indian and negro.
The interrelationships of these dif
ferent races have been the sub
ject of study with the specialists
for ages, but.the disputes are as
numerous as they were when the
study began. Whether the various
races sprang from some one origi
nal race and if so. what the origin
al race was. is a question that is
still in limbo. Between these five
races, as found at present, there
are physical, moral and mental dif
ferences so marked as to seem to
preclude a common origin and yet,
unless such origin is assumed, the
difficulty of the case is greatly en
hanced. Race origins are an un
solved problem.—New York Amer

CURRENCY BILL TO BE PRESSED.
President Wilson is insistent that;
a currency bill be placed on the
statutes during the present extra
session. He has been deeply im
pressed by the business men of the
country for the necessity of this
rjform. During the panics of 1893 j
and 1907 money could not be had
with any kind of security, and the
new bill will provide means where
by money will be issued by the
Government in unlimited quanities
until all demands for “ready mon
ey"have been satisfied. At the
close of the war the federal govern
ment has issued about three billions
of bonds and those bonds could be
deposited in the Treasury by the
banks and get bank notes from the
Government. In other words the
Government bond was the basis of
our circulation and when the bonds
were plentiful and it is well known
that during the few years following
the civil war. this country enjoyed
the greatest prosperity ever known
in its history. But now the Gov
ernment has taken up the bulk of
its bonds and so other high class
securities will have to be used as a
basis for circulation.
Looking Out For Grandma.
Mr. Bryan has furnished the best
answer yet made to the sneers of
the worldly wise because he de
clined to serve alcoholic stimu
lants at his state dinners. It was
made to a Nebraska wet who was
one of the party that met the sec
retary of state while he was on his
way to the coast recently, and who
jokingly wanted to know if he had
a bottle of that grape juice in his
grip. "No,” said Mr. Bryan, "1
don't carry grape juice, don't par
ticularly care for it, and only use it
on occasions as a substitute for
something worse. I have never
kept or served strong drink at my
home where my children are being
raised and my wife is entitled to a
good share of the credit for that.
We started out on that plan when
we were married, have kept it up
through all these years and now
with her hair white with the pass
ing of time and with grandchildren
looking to us for example, 1 am not
going to tell them that my present
business requires their grandma
to tend bar." After which there
doesn't appear to be anything left
to say.—Lincoln, ( Nebr.,) News.

HERBINE
For the Bowels
A Cure for Chronic Constipation, Torpid Livor
and Irregular Bowel Movements.
Constipation is the most common disorder of the bowels. It
affects both sexes and all ago but is more prevalent among
women because their duties in the household require less physical
exercise than the occupations of men; therefore women suffer
most from its baneful effect.
A constipated person Is an easy victim when exposed to any
rerlous disease—Pneumonia, Typhoid Fever, Malaria, Rheumatism,
Small Pox. Yellow Fever and Bright's Disease gather their annual
harvest of death among those who are habitually constipated.
Even though they escape these diseases, such persons are always
ailing more or less. They have headaches, bad digestion, dizzi
ness. vlrtigo (blind staggers), sallow complexion, flatulence, loss
cf strength; and no energy at all. Herblne has a most admirable
effect in the bowels; It Is cooling, purifying and regulating. It
puts a prompt check on biliousness, wind in the bowels, nervous
ness, heartburn, bad breath, low spirits, drowsiness in the day
time and nervous wakefulness at night.
Price 50c per Bottle.

BIG HAYS CLUB FORMED
County Judge Jordan Principal Speak
er at Peach Orchard.
On Saturday night, .May 17, a "Hays
for Governor” Club was organized at
Peach Orchard, in Clay county, with
a membership of 76. County Judge J
S. Jordan of Corning made the address
of the evening. The officers of (he
club are: Mayor P. E. Toler, presi
dent; Editor E. M. White, vice presi
dent; Prof. C. R. Rooker, secretary.
Judge Geo. W. Hay*.
The Thirteenth Judicial District of
fers to the voters of Arkansas at the
special primary to be held on Saturday.
June 21st, a chance to vote for one of
her native sons as the Democratic
candidate for governor of the state to
fill the unexpired term of Joe T. Rob
inson who is now a United State sen
ator.
In Judge Geo. W. Hays, of Camden,
the district presents a man of the
highest moral attainment and who is
exceptionally well qualified in ever,'
respect to fill the office to which he
aspires with credit and honor, lie i
a dignified, honest and capable Chris
fian gentleman who will bring har
monv to the Democratic party in the
state and make a chief executive of
whom all the people will be just!,'
proud. It is safe to say that lie will
carry hfs judicial district almost tinaiii
mously as he is well known and lion
ored throughout it, and the voters o!
other parts of the state ran make no
mistake in voting for him as he is the
proper man for the place.
His platform is economy in the ad
ministration of the state's affairs and
says that if elected he will have no
further political ambition to satisfy,
and expects to criticise no past ad
ministration during the campaign, as
they are gone, but to plan for the f.i
ture and profit by the errors of the
past.—Huttig (Union County) News.
Judge Hays a Commoner.
Judge Geo. W. Hays, of Camden,
lias announced that he is in the race
for the gubernatorial nomination, and
has opened headquarters in Little
Rock and Camden. Judge Hays came
from the rank and file of the com
mon people, and owes his present
prominence to his own sterling worth
and ability. He is a gentleman of
the first water, and being honored by
his people does not spoil him, and it
he is chosen as the standard bearer 01
our state's democracy he will stilt
belong to the people and not the
special interests. We hope to see him
succeed.—4mity Enterprise.
Yes, that Judge Hays is a great com
n.oner, there can be no sort of doubt.
And, should the wisdom of majority
rule be demonstrated by his trium
phant nomination and election, there
could be no question as to the fact
that the masses of the people would
have in him a broad-guaged, liberal
and fearless champion of their inter
ests.— Okoloua Messenger.
Weary of Perpetual Candidates.
.Judge Hays is eminently correct
when he says that the best way to
let the people know of a candidate's
merits is to go before them and dis
i-uks the issues of the campaign and
the needs of slate, instead of making
a campaign of mud-slinging pers nali
ties. Ttie people of Arkansas are sick
and tired of personalities in politics
and want more statesmanship and less
political scheming. Judge Hays' decla
ration that he will not he a candidate
for any other office sounds good to Un
people who are weary of the per
petual candidate—Monroe County
< iti/.cn.
George W. Hays.
Judge George \V. Hays, of Camden,
has announced his candidacy for gov
ernor. The Tribune and everybody
else in Union county are for him and
pioud of the opportunity. Without
apologies to any other who may run,
or who have gone before, we main
tain that the people of Arkansas sel
dom have an opportunity to vote for
as good and as qualified man for the |
office as George W. Hays. He Is
dignified, honest and capable and an
honor to the citizenship. We knew
him as a poor country boy. educating
himself, afterward as county judge of
uachita county: later as circuit
tidge of this district, a position he
now fills, lie is the moderator of the
'.iberty Baptists association, grand
vice chancellor of the state K. of I*., ‘
•i tug Woodman and a big Mason.
Where can you beat his record, and
George Hays is a self-made man, and
> very tody that knows him loves him.

legal ground to development of
