About the Shade Trees.

The storm of the 18th inst. was very dis
astrous to trees in general, but more
especially to the ornamental ones with
which our sidewalks were adorned. The
trouble of raising them was greatly en-
HANGED by the thoughtlessness of many
who acted as if all the expense and trouble
and tasteful arrangement were made for
their amusement. They would bend and
break the young limbs, tear up and remove
the boxes, seemingly finding pleasure in
gratifying their destructive propensites.
Some would hitch their horses to them
when there was post with a hook within
few inches of the tree. They, desirous of
= change of diet, would eat the bark of the
tree. thus stripping it of its only protective
robe. and leave it exposed to the wintry
elements.
We really think the Town Commissioners
should take into consideration and adopt
some plan for the protection of the side
walk embellishments and street retrigera-
ting espaliers.
A suggestive hint to the country people,
whose horses have a propensity to gnaw
-heir stalls. to bring with them when they
come to town a muZzle to put on their
mouths. Such things are used in the
fields when they are ploughing. Why not
use them when they are lett standing three
or four hours beside some valuable shade
tree that the owner values as much as the
farmer his net income from his corn field?
If those in authority would make a law
for the relief of those who have expended
their money to purchase and cultivate
these trees by imposing fine of five dol
lars on all who hitch their horses to them
or iniure them in any way, it would be
some recompenSe to those who have SC
dreaifuly suffered in the past and some
encouragement to plant in the future. We
cannot control the elements, but the Com
mi,sioners have it in their power to make
laws to control the lawlesS and disobedient

active planting season is now at hand and our business men are not so busy but that they can find time to think this matter over. If we want to thrive ard prosper we must be public spirit ed enough to let few of our dol lars go for the extension of our lines of trade and traffic. If we depend upon our local trade we will make but little headway. We must encourage all new ten dencies which incline to bring new traffic to our place. We must show that we arc liberal and enterprising enough to meet on halfway ground all such ap- proaches.

tended Tilden- ward to any great degree thus far, nor in fact have we so far committed ourselves yet, but that we are ready to listen with all due attention to any sound arguments on this subject. We are not quite ready, however, to accept as truism the many nice things said in favor of Gov. Tildcn's pre-eminent worth, avail ability and personal representa- tion of real reform. We can not believe that the chances of sue cess of the Democratic party in the presidential campaign arc narrowed down to the alternative of accepting Gov, Tilden or re- ceiving defeat.
 The position taken by the New York Tribune in a recent marked editorial, that mot to nominate him at St Louis would be to start off with the confession that all the talk of party presses and party leaders about Reform IS hollow and insincere," is placing too low an estimate upon the honest in tentions and earnest efforts ot the Democratic party to suit us; and is at the same time magnifying the personal worth of the Trib- une's favorite to greater degree than is justifiable. While Gov. Tilden may be able to carry his own State, we believe there are other Democrats who
 can do the same thing, and who at the same time will meet with greater favor, and who are more in harmony with the interests of the West and South, than is Gov. Tilden. At the same time should the event transpire that Gov. Tilden gets the nomination at St. Louis, we do not doubt but that he will make a chief magistrate in every way worthy of the posi- tion.

Not Much Harmony to Begin with, and a Row to Break

The Republican State Conven- ton met at the State house in Little Rock on the 27th ult., and after organizing by the election of D. F. Upham as permanent chairman, the meeting proceeded to choose delegates to the Cen cinnati convention. The follow ing are the names of tLe dele gates elected:
 Powell Clayton, S. w. Dorsey, John Mcclure, R. A. Dawson, O.. F. Snyder, Joseph Brooks, John M. Peck, o. \. Hadley, c. C.. Waters, John H. Johnson, Frank Gallagher, Asa Hodges, J. F. Vaughan, II. A.

 Twenty-four in all, only four of the number being colored men. This raised the ire ofJ. Pennoyer Jones, a colored delegate from Desha county, who came out hot and heavy on the "color line"
 The new state central commit. tee as reorganized is composed of the following names:
 $. w. Dorsey, chairman; Powell Clayton, Joseph Brooks, John Mcclure, o. A. Hadley, Asa Hodges, John II. Johnson, A. A. Tufts, J. $. Latham, Benton Fur ner A. $. Prather, Geo. A. Grace, S. II. Holland, w. s. Oliver, II. H. Kenyon, James Torrans, Fran cis Sawyer, NJ. w. Gibb.
 A slight demonstration was attempted in favor of endorsing Grants administration, which was promptly squelched. Resolutions declaring for o. P. Morton for the Presidency and exeoriating the democratic party of the state for abusive use of the school fund, were passed after some squabling over the Morton clause on account of it not being strong enough to suit the colored brethren.
 At the night session the Ques- tion of appointing presidential electors came up, but owing to the favorable prospects for general row, the matter was left to the State central committee and the pow-wow broke up.

TO OUR LIVE MEN.

We have heretofore called the attention of our business men to the importance of making an effort to open up business relations with the people of Boone, Newton and Searcy counties, and we would again now urge this matter upon the attention of our live men. The people of those coun- ties are more than willing to make some place on the Little Rock & Fort Smith Railroad the mart for the sale of their produce and the purchase of the goods they may need. It is plainly to their interest to do so, for if they can sell their produce to us, they will avoid passing it through the hands of St. Louis dealers, and will save the cost of transporta- tion and the commission. To send the produce of the counties north of us to St. Louis, means for the producers to pay com mission to middlemcn, for we arc the consumers of their bacon and wheat and fruit. We arc there fore equally interested with them in opening up a trade with that country. We must now make an effort to start thls traffic this fall. All that is wanted is a good road from here to Harrison. We must maxe the road good to the Newton county line. We can do it by a proper effort, and we must go to work at it. We want to test this matter and see if our people have become so dead to all enterprise that they will let this matter drag along until the counties north of us come to the conclusion that we don't want to deal with them. We hardly know the best plan to proceed upon. There are others far more inter ested in this matter so far as dol lars and cents are concerned, than we are, and we would like to hear from them on this subject. We urge upon some of our lead ing substantial men to come to the front and let us hear from them on this question. Some plan must be settled upon before anything can be done. A sugges- tion from some leading man will
 be a start, and we ask that by next week as many as may wish
 to propose something for the fur therance of this project send us in their ideas. It might be well
 enough to call a meeting and get a general expression from all who feel interested. The best plan is what we are after, and we want it to be settled now. The usual [ lull III business which attends the
