THE STATE PRESS.--IMPCR- TANT CHANGES IN THE HOT SPRINGS PAPERS,

The Daily Gazette of the 18th inst has this to say of some changes which have taken place in the Hot Springs press:
 "Mr. John D. Kimbell retires from the Hot Springs Sentinel and Messrs, Bowers and Matthews resume con trol. Col. Pat Donan, in note to the publishers, accepts the situation as future editor, and indicates the first or fifteenth of September as the time when he will begin work. Mr. Kimbell. in his valedictory, states that he will, on the lst of October next, start weekly paper at the Springs, to be called the Hot Springs Diamond. The Hot Springs Teie- graph has also undergone a change of proprietors, of which we will speak more at large hereafter. We have only space to merely mention these startling facts now"
 We shall be delighted to see Col Donan once again in the editorial harness. Hot Springs may rejoice.

SATURDAYS ELECTION.

We are ashamed and humiliated to have to record the fact-the shameful and outrageous tact-thst oD last Saturday the proposition was voted down to have a public free school here this coming year.
 It is some consolation to us, how ever, to know that the vote cast showed that there is gain this year in the number of voters who are ID favor of public schools. Last year the vote stood 69 against and 3I for school tax. This year last Satur. day) it stood 69 against and 5s for school tax { , mills).
 The old fogy opponents to the ed ucation ot the masses; those who are opposed to the poor mans child being educated and enlightened {; those who would keep the poor mans child ignorant and benighted in or der that they may make "hewers of wood and drawers of water" out of him; those who want to keep up a kind Of codfish aristocracy and who think their children too good to go to school with poor mans child, did not gain q vote this year over last, although they worked hard and earnestly. Those who want to see our State and community prosper, and who look to the sustenance of good free schools as the best means Of securing prosperity, have this year increased their strength nearly one hundred per cent, and had the friends of free schools all turned out VIC would have had q majority of 20 or % and would have been spared the burning shame of having the fin ger of scorH pointed at us as Q town opposed to popular education.
 Next year we lhInk the tax will be voted by two-thirds vote. In the meantime watch the men who have made themselves prominent in defeating the poor children of this town of school privileges for the next year, and if one of them offers himself for an office, vote against him as an enemy to the public veal of the people and the State-for such he is, if not m intention, at least he is such in fact and reality.

Some weeks ago we took occa- sion to mildly vebuke as unbecomlng and ungrateful, the disposition ex- hiGited by some of the newspapers of Arkansas to condemn and Censure the Lindell hotel for charging Four Hundred Dollars for entertaining the late press excursion. Bro. Free man, of the Arkansas County Demo srat, has this to say of our remarks
 Bro. Battenield may be making a little side thrust at us because we expressed a regret (publicIy) that We, in company with many others. were forced, as It were, to take ouar- ters at the Lindeh hotel, where the
 proprletors charged Foug Hundred
 Dollars fur a night under their roof.
