ARKANSAS.

The most trustworthy information to be
obtained from Arkansas indicates that Gov
ornor Baxter ls simply traitor to the party
which elected him. II seems that since his
Inauguration he has gradually wcancd him
self from the natural alliances Of the Rcpub-
lican party and has finally placed Himself un-
conditioually under Democratic control. To
accomplish this act Of treason he pretended
to believe that n conspiracy had been formed
against him by leading Republicans Of the
State for the purpose Of depriying him Of his
office. Acting on this pretended belief, he
surrounded himself with armed guards, re-
cruited from the ranks Of his former political
opponents. The telegraph wires were bur
dcned for several days with sensational news
regarding his pretended danger, and he was
even foolish enough to assert that his life had
been threatened. No evidence Of the exist
1ncc Of such n conspiracy has been dlscoy-
cred except In the Imagination and lying
utterances Of his now-found friends, and no ne
ccssity has existed at any time for the warliko
preparations he has made. In short, having
sold himself to the enemy, he Is vainly attempt
ing to cover his infamy with an effort to appear
in the attitude Of q persccuted martyr. The
Legislature refused to take any action to un-
seat him by refusing to allow his election to
DC contested. The supreme Court can issue
writ Of quo iodrranto; but the invcstiga-
ton which would follow would doubtless
show that he was legally elected. Brooks,
who ran against him, isa Republican, but re-
cciycd the support Of the Liberals and Demo-
Gratis. II Is evident from this that II Baxter
remalus In office or Brooks is installed the
administration Of the State will be Demo-
cratic. II ''bloodshed, anarchy" or any Of
the terrible things now threatened by the cp-
position press do occur tho Democrats alone
will be responsible but there Is no danger Of
such occurrences. In fact, peace aud quiet
prevails throughout the State, and will con-
tinue until something more serious than il

ABOUT INDEPENDENT JOURNALISM.

AbOtE iNbEFENbENf JOthNhbish'
The Capital Sunday undertook to read
the REPUBLICAN short lecture upon indie
pendent journalism. Our contemporary says;
''Independent Journalism seems to trouble qu+te
a number OF people. Our neighbor, the hEPUB-
LICAS, seems TO have caught the panic, and IN
paragraph one day last week asserted that all In
dependent journals were open TO bribery. Our
nolghbor did not reflect or remember that this
hit the foremost newspapers OF the country. Take
the Hera d, for example. This Journal Is objec-
tlonAble In many respects, but no one believes
that IL could be bought OF Influenced BY either
its enemies, but It's deadliest enemy would not
dare TO fetch such charge against u. And the
same may be said OF almost any other Journal
OF the indepenpent class In the United States"
Let us stick pin Just here. There Is as
much difference between the Independence Of
the New York Herald and the independence
of the other so-callcd independent" journals
as there Is between night and day. Compare,
for instance, that journal with tho Tribune,
which now desires 10 be ranked In the indie
pendent class, The Herald prints all the
news Of the day and spends enormous sums
OF money In It's collection. 1t docs not care
one cent whether that news tells for the party
in power or against H. for the opposition
or against IT, When, In lts opinion, q political
party, or the leader OF political party, blum
ders, II does not hesitate TO tell him so in the
ssyerest terms. When he or II does right II
commends him. Judged by this standard Of
independence, " the only correct one to our
mind, where do We fnd tho journals which
arc especially singled out by the Capital as
models 10 be Initiated and admlrodl The in
