The Probable Man,

As the reports now stand, Cover her Miller is leading all other can didatss for Governor. The score Wednesday stood, Miller 26, Wilson, 24, Churchill 12, Grace, 4. It is tolerably certain that Miller win go into the convention with the largest number of votes. Then comes the scuffle. ChurchilPs friends will pull long and strong, likewise Wilson's friends, and we hardly think either one of the two will be able to win the others strength. If such is the case, it is altogether probable that these two clements will center on some other man rather than go to Miller, and in that event, we believe that Smithse will be the man they will take up, and eventually the race will narrow down to Smithee and Miller.
 Governor Miller has made good Governor. No man asserts to the contrary, and the people of Arkansas arc slow to give him up. The third term opposition is the strongest brought to bear upon him at the present time, and if he is to be sup planted, it must be done with . man of actual worth. It must be some bold, fearless and go-ahead man, q progressive man, in fact. We do not believe he can be succeeded by a fossil or a fogy. Hence we still cling to the belief that If he is su- percsded. it will be by James N. Smithes. The manly, bold and vigorous canvass made by Smithee in his canvass against the amend ment, has won hlm thousands of friends, and the people of Arkansaw want no further proof of his worth than to review his public work in the various stations he has served them. They know him; every mothers son of them, and they will be only too proud to honor the bold, noble and fearless man, who from an insignificant blow boy few years back, has grown to be one of their most true and constant leaders. They cannot and will not forget to reward man who has done as much for them as Smithee has. Hence our conclusion that the next Cover nor of Arkansaw will be William R Miller. or James N. Smithee, with chances equally in favor of the lat ter.
 We do not wish to disparsge Gen. ChurchilPs chances, but from pre- sent indications, we do not believe bis chances are good.-Morrilton State.
The Russellville Democrat., 1880-06-03
Honest Tom Fletcher.

ED. DEMOCRAT: Honest Tom IS not candidate as we are aware oi, and little anecdote about him ana the Grant boom is hot out of place.
 Of course it cost the citizens oi Little Rock great deal of money to entertain Gen. Grant, and 1t had to be made up by subscription. An agent requested NIT. Fletcher to ru' down $20, to which he replied by saying that widow lady in the country whose taxes had not been paid for two years, would soon have her land forfeited and that he would pay her taxes for her and let the bloom" take care of itself.
 Honest Te:sa s,.yeesai ed SSi 20 by paying the widows taxes which were only $1S.75, while the bloom" money de handed was even $20. An example worthy of all imitation. A. B. c.

by passing law.o The justice refers to White vs. Hart, 13 Wall, 625. The above cases of Jacoway vs. Dem ton. and Oliver ys. Memphis R. R. C.,
 are quoted with aprobation by Judge Cooley on Constitutional Limitations,
 on 349 and $50, in notes 1 on each page. deem the above to be conclusive,
 that state convention can no more inn
 pair the obligation than can q state legislature.
 If the above position be true, why in- iure the character of our state by con- firming the "Fishback amendment?" The advocates of the amendment
 claim that the swamp land and railroad aid bonds are fraudulent and
 have been so declared by our supreme
 court, and that the Holford bonds
 have been overpaid, which l believe
 nobody denies. The amendment, if confirmed, will
 settle nothing. Why not vote it down THOMAS w. POUND.
