MIR. JAMES POTTS.

This gentleman $ announcement as candidate for reelection to the office of County Surveyor will be found iIs the proper column of to-iay's paper, and in calling attention to it we desire to simply confer that need of praise upon the manner in which he has filled tho office during the past two terms which is richly due. Always prompt and ever ready to discharge with scrup- ulous cxactuess every official duty con neeted with his office, and with qualif~ cations for the position which arc tue questioned, he has given universal sat- isfaetion, and left the unanimous im pression that he Is the right man in the right place. There is nothing so im- portant to our land owners as the proper and accurate description of the mites, bounds and location of their real estate, and we presume they know that q competent surveyor only can keen thcs, matters straight.
The Russellville Democrat., 1878-05-02
CAPT. w. M. PEELER.

Pope County has perhaps never had an official who has given more general satisfaction than has this gentleman during his term as County Assessor. We venture the assertion that no man who has ever assessed Pope County has come as near making full, fair and complete assessment list as has he. We believe he got several hundred more polls on the list than were ever before listed. His valuations and figures have given satisfaction to all. Capt. r. to- day announces himself candidate f9f' reelection. With the benefit of Ifs experience acquired during the tefm he has served he will, no doubt, mike a better and more efficient .Assessof, if possible, rnow, than he did before.I It is an important office, and when well filled it is the part of wisdom to let well enough alone. We do not know w1lo will compete with Mir. Peeler for the office, but we do know that it will bs hard to beat him.

- - HON, N. D, SHINN.

As may be seen by this gentleman's card in to-day's paper, he is once more before the voters of Pope County solic- iting their suff'rages for seat in the House of Representative He is no stranger to the people of Pope County. Fourteen years or public life has made all our people as familiar with his name as twice-told tale, and has also made him fully posted with the wants, necessities and wishes of the people. Four years ago he represented Pope iu the Legislature, and although lie did not make many of those windy, amount-to-nothing speeches which cost the people from $50 to $l00, he was eye;' in his place, and his sound judgment and ripe discretion gave him an influ- ence in the House which he could al- ways make felt, and which he never failed to use for the benefit of his con- stitucncy. We have yet to hear of the first complaint concerning any act he has done in his whole record of four teen years in the public service. He is q straightforward, honest, earnest man, and if elected will try as hard as any other man to do his whole duty lodging no responsibility. taking no step without mature deiiberatiou, put ting on no pufled-up airs and with only the true interests of his State and his constituency in view.

The Antccedents of Disease.

Among the antecedents of disease Iare inertness in the circulation of the blood, and unnaturally attenuat- ed condition of the physique, indl- eating that the life current is deti- cient in nutritive properties, a wan, haggard look, inability to digest the food, loss of appetite, sleep and strength, and a sensation of unnatu- ral languor. All these may be re gardcd as among the indicia of ap preaching disease, which will event ually attack the system and over whelm it, If it IS not built up and fortified in advance Invigorate, then, without loss of time, making choice of the greatest vitalizing agent cxtant, Hoseettcr's Stomach Bitters, an elixir which has given health and yigor to myriads of the sick and debilitated, which is avouched by physicians and analysts to be pure as we'll as effective, which is immensely popular in this coun try, and extensively used abroad and which has been for years past one of the leading medicinal staples of America.

MIR. F. c. FALLS.

N We call the attention of our readers, especially those who are voters of Pope yCounty, to the card of this gentleman in the announcement column Of to-day's paper, announcing that he submits his name to his fellow-citizens as q candi- kdate for reelection to she position now held by him,-tlat of County Treasur- Sr. MT. Falls has made faithful, Dhttentive officer in this capacity. He has used diligence seldom found in an humble office holder to straighten out and systemize the business cf his office, and although he has now only served part of an unexpired term he can perhaps give more accurate and satisfactory information in regard to any matter under his charge than a large majority of the County Treasur- CTS who serve continuously for a number of terms.

MIR. CHAs. SMITH.

This gentleman avails himself of the juse of our announcement column to-day to present his name as candidate for the office of Township Constable for Illinois Township, an office which, al- though humble, is of no little impor- tance, and should not be overlooked. Mir. Smith is comparative stranger among us, but has made Arkansas his adopted home. and by selecting the garden spot of the State as his home, has shown a soundness of judgment which we commend. Since his resi- dence among us MT. Smiths conduft has been so gentlemanly as to make him host of friends, and as to hls qualifications (always look at and scrtt tinize the qualifications of every man no matter how humble the office which he seeks) we can vouch that they are ample, and equal to all demands of the position.
The Russellville Democrat., 1878-05-02
H. c. HOWELL.

A citizenship of more than thirty years in Pope County, and business relations with the people of the county for about quarter of q century makes this gentleman's name intimately fa- miliar to almost every man within the borders of our county. Hence in call ing the attention of our readers to his candidacy for seat in the General Assembly of Arkansas as Pope County's next Representative, it is not necessary for us to give the gentleman any intro duction to our people. Mr. Howell is known to you all as one of the best and most successful business men in the County, and, if we have not got an erroneous impression on our mind, we believe he has also served our people with credit as an official. We call es- pecial attention to MT. Howel's circu- lar letter defining his position upon the vital issues which are before the people, and we cannot refrain from commenting the open frankness with which he defines his attitude, and the means which he employs to give pub- 1iclty thereto. It strikes us that a plain, manly and unequivocal state mentN of q mans sentiments, Gone aspir- ing tothe Legislature, especially sub mitted to the people in this manner, without all that bragadocio, clustering and heated excitement and personal allusion to other aspirants who may be contending for the same office, is far preferable, and gives the people fully as fair an opportunity to judge of his merits, as the method which has now become so popular, of jumping il about tho County and kicking up the great hurrah which generally ensnes before each election. Hence, without intending to make any discrimination between aspirants for this position, we commend Mir. HowelPs course, and we hope the people of the County will weigh carerully what he states to be his views, for at this particular time no mau should be sent te the Legislature whose platform is not clearly and plainly deiined. And without presum- ing to make any suggestion to other aspirants we may be permitted to ex- press the hope that they will come out and place themselves upon the record in the same public manner adopted by Mir. Howell. a

A Book that Everybody Wants.
We have received from the Nation.

We have received from the Nation al Publishing Company of St. Louis the advance sheets of their new work, entitled The Pictorial History of the Work, by James D. McCabe, q we'll known historical writer. It is the most valuable book that has been published in this country for many years. It contains separate and admirably written history of every nation of anclent and modern times, and is full of useful informa- tion concerning them, presented in popular style, and in manner that will enable the reader to refer in stantly to any subject upon which information is desired. The book is complete treasury of history, and there is not question that can be asked concerning any historical sub iect, but an answer to it can be found in tEis work. The author does not content himself with q mere dry statement of facts, but sketches the life and manners of the various nations of which he treats, in life like colors, and presents to the read CT the causes which led to the pros |lperity and decay of the great powers pf the world He shows us the va fious great men-the warriors, states. Ymen, poets, sagcs, and orators -ol ancient and modern times, and makes them familiar to the reader; he ex- plains the secret motives of their ac- tions, and points out the lessons which their lives teach. A valuable feature of this work is a complete History of the late War between Russia and Turkey,-the only one in print. The mechanical execution of the book deserves the highest praise. It contains l260 large dou- ble-column pages, printed in the clearest and most beautiful style on paper of the very best quality. The book is enbelished with over 65C fine engravings, embracing battles and other historical scenes; portraits of the great men of ancient and mod ern times; and views of tho principal cities of the world. These engrav, :ngs are genuine works of art, and were made at cost of over $25, ,000 The great number and high charac ter of these engravings make this the most valuable art publication ol the century.
 It is for sale by subscription only and agents will find that thIs book will sell readily when all others fail from the fact that is q work that the people really want. See the publish CTS advertisement for agent in an other column.

 Items scarce this week. Plenty too, were we allowed to tell all we know.
 -McKennon or Byels? That's the question now mostly discussed on our streets.
 Miss Jessie Howell, one of the fairest young ladies of Russellvill, was in town Sunday visiting Miss Rosa Patterson.
 III. c. Howell and lady came up last Saturday on visit to the old homestead. By the way we are for H. Clabe for Representative, and we are thinking that on the day of the election there will be just enough of our opinion to elect him.
 We are sorry to chronicle that from present indications the wheat crop in this vicinity will be almost an entire failure. We saw some from MT. Poynter's field, near town, which will not pay for cutting, and we hear several parties talking of blowing it up and planting corn.
 We don't blame the young man for not going to the class at Sunday school last Sunday; aside from hls personal feelings in the matter, there were greater attractions which nat urally made him feel inclined to keep his seat in the back part of the house. You were correct for once, my boy.

Liver is King.

The Liver is the imperial organ, of the whole human system, as it controls the life, health and happiness of man. When it is disturbed in it's proper ae- tion, all kinds of ailments are the natu- ral result. The digestion of food, tile movements of the heart and blood, the action of the brain and nervous system, are all immediately connected with the workings of the Liver. It has been successfully proved that Greens Au- gust Flower is uncqualed in curing all persons afflicted with Dyspepsia or Liver Complaint, and all tho numerous symptoms Chat result from an unhealthy condition of the Liver aud Stomach.

The working men-the laboring classes-men and women-have made quite an important strike. They have "struck" for a remedy that will make positive and permanent cures of all forms of chiils without any other med
 icine. In all their search throughout the country, it has leaked out that they have struck" only one article that suits them in every particular, and that article is known as Days Agde Tonic, which they recommend to their fellow laborers as entirely worthy of conti- dence. Workingmen can govern them selves accordingly. May 9.
