A WORD OF POLITICAL
 WARNING.

There is truth and wisdom in the following short words of warning. No man is reliable or trustworthy who cannot govern and control his appetite for the degrading cup. Men who drink arc liable to get in a condition at any time which will lncapacitate them for the discharge of any business. The only safe plan is to choose only sober men for your officials:
 Nearly every state and county has suffered more or less from drunken officials, and as we are about to have another election we plead with the voter to be careful and not cast his ballot for any but sober men. A drunken sot in a legislative body is bore and . nuisance, and if sober men cannot be found, competent to discharge the duties of Legislators, go un- represented. It is dangerous to elect drunken sheriils or clerks. In truth the sot's place is not in tho state-house nor courthouse, but in the saloon, so long as he has the dimes to pay for his drinks and then in the mad house, jail or poor house. Vote for no man who is not sober for any office in your gift. You will bnng disgrace on your party, your state and your county by elevating incorporate men to oilice.--State Grange,
The Russellville Democrat., 1876-08-03
ROBEsON.

The investigation of Robeson' s administration of naval affairs discloscs such volume of cor ruption and fraud that the New York Sun demands his impeach- ment. Some of the newspapers give headings to their Washing ton correspondence on this sub jcct which tell a shameful tale of rascaiity. The following are specimens:
 "The Atrocions Corruptions of Robeson and their Reformation within the party.-Whitthorne relates Story of Official Rascal ity Unparalleled in any Age. = Seventy one Ships of War miss ing with no record of their sale or destruction on the books of the Dcpartmcnt.-Millioas of Dollars squandercd upon favogives, and the Navy reduced to rotten hulks. Contracts awarded without Ad- vertising, and Bogus Claims paid Privately.-The Navy Yards con
 
 verted into vast Political Depots, expending q Million ycar.--A Bankrupt firm supported by Gov crnment Funds which have never been rcturned.-Public Officers retained in place or removed at the beck of Robber Contractors. Tho stealing of every thing that could be reached, from q fen penny nail to 8 Man-of War"
 Such is the record that the Secretary of War has made-such is a part of the Republican admin istration for which, in the words of the Cincinnati Convention the Republican administration is commended, and for which the country should feel thankful. Such is the administration en- dorsed by tho platform upon which MT. Hayes stands, and which fully accords with his views.

troduce | new kind of LIVE, INDIE PENDENT, DISCRIMINATING journal ism. Splendid; we shall be glad to see something of that kind in Arkansas. Faultfinding seems to be the cue with which the new editor heralds his intention to lift things out of the old ruts and groves. The .smuch dissatisfac- tion" and "murmurs of discon- tent" of which the gentleman speaks arc perhaps more audible in the Metropolitan air that they are in the quiet rural districts. WE thought the people were never more eontented and better satisfied than they are now. Such at least is the condition in our part of the State. But if the new editor of the Herald is going to add still more to the happiness, peace and contentment of the peo- pie we welcome him to the work. If he enters the field of journal ism to get up a little thew deal'' in the democratic party well, we shall see what we shall see.

UNITED STATES SEN ATOE

We trust the voters of Pope county will not forget that there is United States Senator to be chosen this fall. Although this duty will dcvolve upon our next legislature the people have it within their power to control the matter. The gain of Democrat ic member in the United States Senate is q matter of no small importance, and in the selection of our next representatives this matter should be kept constantly in view. Make it one of the in dispensable conditions that every aspirant shall pledge himself em- phaticaliy to vote for the Demo cratic a3pirant, Gov. A. II. Gar land. The whole country has felt the effects of republican Senate opposing every me- asure of retrenchment and reform intro duced by Democratic House. The dead lock on the appropria ton bills, wherein the Republican Senate steadily and uniformly op- posed every reduction in the prof ligatc expenditures of the differ ent departments, thereby delaying the work of Congress, has hcen all expensive and provoking illustra tion that change in the political complexion of the Senate had bet ter be made.
 If every State will attend to the matter of sending up democratic Senator as fast as the time of q republican expires, we will soon realize the needed change. The way to do this Is to send mem
 0crs to the State legislature who can be depended upon. Let us

-SCHURz.-It still remains for Mir. Carl Schurz or some of his friends to explain the agility dis played by tine fine somersaulting ofI that gentleman. It is now coming out pretty clearly that MT. Schurz did aim his Firth Av- enue address specially against Hayes and that he had stated so.
 The New York aats-Zeitung states that MT. Schurz, in the committee of which he was chair man, did explicitly say that Gov. Hayes was one of the persons aimed at in the address, and that he would not support him if nom mated.
 Can MT. Schurz offer anything in explanation?

THE PRIMARIES.

We make use of this, the last opportunity we will have, to again call the attention of the democrats of Pope county to the importance of acting wisely and dolng their full duty at the Pri- mary Election. Next Tuesday every man in the county who ranks himself as a democrat should consider that he has a duty to perform. Yes, a DUTY, because such it really is; and no man can shirk it without incur ring the chances of disaster to the party and the country, for upon the success of the demoe- racy depends the peace, prosper ity and happiness of the people. The past sixteen years of repnb- lican administration, wherever they have had control whether in the national or State government, ought to suffice to convince any fair, honest thinking man, that that party must be routed from place and power. It is truth which IS fully and fairly demon strated by history that all par ties and factions become naughty, corrupt and defiant of the people after q long lease of power. Ro tation therefore is necessary to keep the ruling power mindful of the obligations due the people who are the makers and dethron- CTS of rulers. To attain success organization is not only necessa- ry, but indispensable. We have heretofore advocated the primary election system and pointed out the dangers of neglect. We trust every democrat in the county will come squarcly up to his full duty next Tuesday. All aspi rants for tho various offices are
 
 then to yield to the wishes of the people. Contestants for the yari- ous offices are then to be thinned down to one nominee for each county office. It is absolutely necessary for the success of the nominees that the full strength of the Democratic party be boiled. Independents are in the field and they intend to slip in if there IS any chance. Let the1 expression at the primaries next Tuesday sound the doom of all iadepend- ents. Act wisely next Tuesday, and all will be well.

WHAT DOES TT MEAN.

The new editor of the Little Rock Herald, in the course of his salntatofy says: "There is q splendid field open at this time in the peculiar condition of Arkan- sas politics for the introduction of q new style live, independent, discriminating journalism. The Democratic party is fast drifting into those old ruts and grooves of prescription and cXclusiveness that in former times character ized it's intolcrant and proscrip tive rule. There is much dissat- faction abroad. The mul1nurs of discontcnt are audible everywhere. As old Mrs. Carnage would say, "An cast wind is setting in and things are going contrariwise." " There is cause for all this dissat- isfactlon, and it is not difficult fol close and experienced ob- server to trace the cause of iu to it's true and proper course
 This is certainly q lively start for the new editor and when that 'east wind sets in fully, we may look for lively times from this paper which proposes now to in

take no chances on this point. If an aspirant $ not democrat, he will if elected, be most likely to refuse to vote for Democratic Senator. Whatever may be the professions of these republicans in light matters here at home, if they cannot go the "whole hog" when it comes to the more welgh- ty matters it just shows the cloven foot. We trust the voters of Pope county will remember these things.
