Butler is known to have advised the New

WASHINGTON, March 80.
THE ALABAMA CLAIMS COMMISSION.
While the detailed proceedings Of the
joint high commission are kept secret,
there is no doubt that the commission
has thus far utterly failed to come to any
tcliHo VI SclllcIucllt Ol lut lhtcIuallOHal
fishery question. The demands of Cana.
da as submitted through Sir John Mac
Donald are regarded as utterly untenable
by the American commissioners and un.
less the United States are willing to con
cede liberal terms Of reciprocity, it is
thought that the commission will find it.
self in complete dead lock. This is
quite unfortunate in view of the fact thai
the fishing season will open in two oil
three months, when the belligerent acts
of last season are likely to be resumed
If the commission fail to come to any
conclusion on this question, it is not be
lieved that they will attempt to adjudicate
the Alabama claims and boundary ques-

and delibcration. We know that large
majority of the legal voters Of the State
are opposed to Radicalism and the pres
ent administration. The people, however,
are much disprited and discouraged, and
in the face Of so much to dispirit and dis
hearten them, we know it will be diili-
cult matter to arouse them to active and
energetic exertion. But we believe it
can be done, and that by adopting vigor-
ous measures for thorough and efficient
organization. the people can be aroused
to lively sense Of the dangers that i'm
peril their pest and dearest interests, and
induced to make noble, glorious, he
role and successful effort to overthrow
the despotism OF Radicalism, and restore
the government to the administration Of
honest, faithful and competent men.
With that view, we have deemed it ex
pedient and advisable, as necessary pre-
liminary movement, to appoint
CENTRAL STATE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE,
who will be charged with the duty and
responsibility of perfecting and carrying
out some plan OF organization, by means
Of which the Democratic and Conserva-
tive clements Of the State can be rallied
and made to present bold and united
front to the enemy in the campaign of
~.
The gentlemen we have selected for
this arduous and responsible work are
representative men OF the Conservative
people of Arkansas-closely identified
with and true and faithful to their inter
ests; tried and well approved; full OF
zeal, enargy and wisdom unsclfish, pat
riotic and devoted; fully imbued with the
liberal and progressive spirit of the
times; jealous of the honor, dignity and
character Of the State, and in every way
eminently worthy Of the confidence ofthe
people
We hope and believe that they will be
able to devise good, wise and efficient
plan Of organization; and when so pre-
sented, we hope and believe that the pes-
pie Of Arkansas will promptly, cordially
and enthusiastically Y respond.
In this movement, and in the future
organization that may grow out OF it, we
cordially invite the cooperation Of all
truo and patriotic men Of all previous
party affiliations, who are opposed to
Radcalism and in favor of good govern
mcnt.
