THE WEEKLY ARGUS
REDUCTION IN PRICE.

There never was a time in the history of our
country when u greater necessity existed for cir
culating pure Democratic documents. Radical
| legislation has made grave yard and desert Of
half of our country; our liberties have been in
frngci upon to an alarming extent; oyerwhelm-
ed with debt, and staggering under its load Of
corruption and imbeclity, our government is
| the scott and y-word Of foreign nations; dispis.
ed at home and dcrdcd abroad it is overriding
ing the very brink Of destruction, the departure
Of our people from the glorious precepts of the
past has led them into Il labyrinth Of anarchy
from which many see no escape but in a military
despotism. The New York Imperjuhst, founded
and supported by the bond holding aristocracy,
il laundering for the establishment of an Empire;
its efforts receive the countenance Of high gov
eminent officials, and the appreciation of the
manufacturing nabobs ofthe East We are rapid
ly drifting upon breakers which must soon test
the stability of the ship of State. There is no
hope for the future, save in rousing tho people
to their duties as citizens, and to a realization Of
the peril in which their liberties are placed
There is but one way TO redeem the country from
tho demagogues and punderers who are fast urg-
ing it to ruin. The masses must return to the
principles Of the fathers of the Republic, drive
the life blood of the nation, and place in power
only those who will administer our affairs with
prudence and economy. There must be "a
change in the government within the next four
years. The people must choose between Democ- |
racy and Imperialism The struggle has already |
found, as in the past, battling against monarch
cal ideas, and for the supremacy of the people
Circulate the documents.
With this object in view, we have determined
to reduce the prioo Of the WEEKLY ARGUS, ami
nope, thereby, to place II IN the hands Of every
Democrat in the county, and within the reach
Of every political opponent who may desire to
investigate facts and listen to the truth while yet
here is time On and after the LIST Of July, the
price Of the WEEKLI Argus win be as follows:
Single Copy, one year, $3.50
Ten Copies, sent to one address, each,".2,25
Twenty do do 200
When not paid in advance, ............ 300
rg- The cost of publishing paper is az
great now as during the war but we make this
reduction to still further increase our circulation.
We invite all thinking men to aid US.

THE SENATORIAL QUESTION.
Hon. Nell 9. Brown Recommended as |
F0WIer's Successor.
From the Pulaski Citizen.

E0WEers successor
From the Pulaski Citizen.
1t seems that the public journals are
very much exercised about the election
Of Senator. Several names are mem
toned in connection with the event.
Etheridge, johnson and Cooper are spoken
Of That the election should be regarded
as one of great moment must not be
doubted; and that the ,fttest man should
be selected will be admitted as matter
of prime Importance. Great thought
and prudence are requisite at all times in
the elevation of men to Offices of indu-
ence and honor, but at no stage of our
public affairs are these elements of action
to be evoked that at the present. The
State needs now, not fierce partizan-a
committed man to some fossil school of
politics, or toisome new tangled theory
Of legislation = such as national and
State reputation, but on the contrary, one
who has large views of his "country's
good"-who comprehends and understands
the great questions of the day, as they stand
related to each other; who has no personal
piques to resent, quarrels to adjust, or
private ends to accomplish, and who would
not only fairly and boldly represent his
immediate constituency, but embrace ia
his comprehension the manifold interests
Of the republic. Such man, it is TO be
feared, is neither Esheridge nor johnson
the frat is too empirical, fiery and cratic;
the last too much controlled By personal
feeling. The desired Senator should be of
catholic feeling-so exempt from party
ties so disenthralled from the Influence of
"wrong" as to be wholly and solely the
representative of general welfare.
Can such man be found2 He can
in the person of Hon. Neil S Brown.
He is man of mark, known and hon.
ored throughout this broad land of ours
In him the dignity of the State would be
personifed, and by him the national
councils be more ennobled.
Lift, then, Mr. Editor, to the head Of
your columns as candidate for United
States Senator, the distinguished name Of
Hon. Neil S. Brown. '<'A Pax.
