and those in like condition, in all time, the
Lords thoughts had to descend 10 the ma
terial plane of life and be expressed in Ian
guaee relating to the physical body and its
food, corresponding with the food for the
soul.
But there was virtue in obedience to known
physical laws, If the motive be obedience to
the rightful law-giver. And aside from the
religious view Of such obedience, the Law
named is valuable in showing Us which il

that for sanitary reasons, and because Of
their influence upon morals through their
effect upon the body, man ought to abstain
from The things forbidden as unclean. The
theory upon that point seemed, at least,
reasonable and worthy Of consideration, and
this the speaker very earnestly urged his
hearers to give 1t. He said, Il am sure you
will fed that there canno, be healthy and
vigorous ultimation OF the moral and mental
faculties, without healthy body; that there
cannot be healthy body unless it subsis,s
upon heslthy food. and that the flesh of an

VOLUME FIVE.

The present issue of the DEMOCRAT starts us in our fifth year. For four years we have stood up at the rack, fodder or no fodder, and ba.tled for the right as God granted it to us to see the right. If, in that time, we have done any good, we are glad of it; if We have done any harm, we regret it, as an error of the head anl not of the heart.
 We have during the time, attempt ed, as best we knew, to do otr duty to our constituency, by ady,cating that side of every question winch we thought was best calculated to pro- mote the good of the State ana of the masses. In doing this, we have diff cred with some of our ablest .ontem- poraries on measures of greatest i'm portance. We have had the satisfac- tion in large majority of Instances of seeing our position sustain,d; and if there IS any truth in the axiom that truth is mighty and willprevail, we have for the greater part,at least, been on the side of right ant truth.
 For those with whom we have diff. fered we have no unkind 6eling-- we differed from principle, md we never allow that to interrupt our friendly relations with thUe with whom we may differ.
 For the past support we have re- ceived, we thank our patrtns and friends; and we respectful. solicit the continued encouragemant and support of all who believe thst free press is worth supporting.
 As we have always dune, fe shall in the future endeavor to mke the DEMOCRAT the champion of daly the Truth and the Eight.

THE SCHOOL INTERESTS OF
 RUSSELLyILLE.

Do the citizens of our town realize the importance of the school interests of our little city? Judging from the lukewarm support given to schools here, and the slight interest manifested we fear they do not. One of our prom inent citizens few days ago remarked to us that from thirty five hundred to four thousand dollars per year was being sent from our town to pay tui- tion and board for pupils sent from here to other schools.
 Now why should we not all put our mites and our efforts together and make determined effort to establish and sustain school here as good as there is in the State?
 There is not better location in Ar kansas for school. The accessibility of our location. the health of this sec ton, the cheapness of everything ADVANTAGEOUS together to make it very desirable place for an educational institution.
 We understand that there is some talk, since the burning of the fine building at Harrison, under the aus pices of the NJ. k. Church North, of changing the location of it before again rebuilding. Why not Russellville offer them some encouragement to bring it here?
 We urge our people TO DO SOME THING to revive our school interests. We invite expressions of public senti- ment on this subject through the col- umns of the DEMOCRAT, and hope to hear from some of our influential citizens.

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE,

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE. The message of Gov. Miller was read before joint session of the two houses last Wednesday a week ago.) The message is very lengthy paper taking in wide scope.
 The people of the State are con graduated upon their prosperous condition and urged to push on and malntaln aposition among the States of the Union which will secure us the position which our great natural ad- vantages render certain for us in the ultimate future. The reports of the different heads of the departments of State are referred to at length, their recommendation received and con cured in or dissented from as the case may be The report of the State Board of Finance is incorporatd in the message and its recommendation to abstain from a return to State Scrip to run the State Government fully concurred in oy the Governor.
 The fact is mention thar owing to an error, antedating the last admin istration, the amount of the out standing State Scrip has been over stated to the amount of $631,1 So that only about $477,72 of this class of indebtedness is now out standing.
 The landed interest of the State receive considerable notice, and nu- merous amendments to existing Stat utes touching this subject are rec commended.
 Considerable space is devoted to Immigration and Education. The importance of doing something to secure steady, general immigra- tion to our State is forclbly impress ed upon the Legislature.
 Much space is occupied under the head of Militia-much more than need have been.
 The remarks under tEe head of Railroads are pertinent, pointed and sensible. The Governor says:
 renew the recommendation of my predecessor that the General As sembly adopt q uniform and defin- ite system for the taxation of rail roads. The present law in regard to the valuation of railroad property is vague and uncertain, no two officers, whose duty it is to value such pro- perty, agree as to the rules to be adopted. A law should be enacted that could be easily understood and enforced and that would be just alike to the railroads and to the State.
 This species of property should not be exempted from it's proper share of the burdens of Government, nor is such exemptions desired by the companies. Tine roads should be treated in spirit of fairness and liberality that will encourage the building of more, and the improve ments of those already built Such as are now completed have already been of incalculable benefit to the State; they have brought immigra- tion; they have enhanced the value of property; and have in maly ways assisted in building up and improve ing the country. There are at pre- sent some half dozen or more pro jected lines of railroad within our limits, which if structed, would add immensely to the growth and prosperity of the country, and which would be constructed If an enlght ened and liberal policy should be pursued towards them.
 Iwould suggest the enactment of a law similar to that introduced into the Senate at the last session, to tax the net earnings of the roads, for d limited time.

The Army Bill.

The passage of the army appropriation
bill by both houses OF Congress has thrown
upon the President the responsibility of de-
Gliding whether it shall become law or not,
the Democrats not having in either house
votes enough to pass it over veto. But
the army bill has nothing in it, as many
seem TO suppose, in regard to deputy mar
shals, supervisors, or anything Of the kind.
The provision which the Republicans have
been fshing SO hard is one that relates to
the use OF the army to keep the peace
at congressional elections. Mr.. HAYES
and MIR. EyARTs, his prime minister,
are both upon the record as opponents of
the use OF the army for any such purposes.
1t is possible, therefore, that Mr.. HAYES
may decide not to veto this bll-barey pos
sible, We think. The bill now under con-
sideration in the House Of Representatives
is the one which repeats all laws authorizing
the appointment OF deputy marShals, super
vlsors. &c, &c. This bin Mr.. HAYES will
certainly veto. What will follow we shall
not now predict.
