Another strike,

The working men-the laboring
classes men and women--'llavc
made quito an important strike.
They have "struck" for II remedy
that will make positive and pcrma-
mont cures Of al forms of chills
without any other medicine. In all
iheirsearch throughout the country,
it has leaked out that they have
"struck" only one orticle that suits
them IN every particular, and that
article is known as Days Ague
Tonic, which they recommend to
their fellow-laborers as entirely
worthy OF confidence. Working
men can govern themselves accord
ingly.

.gO'in IL. E1ViVcg, Esq.

Mr.. John =. Driver has authori-
tatively announced that he is can
didate to represent the Senatorial
District composed Of Mississippi,
Poinsett and Jackson Counties.
simultaneously with that announc-
ment, we wish to give HIM the un-
qualified and hearty endorsement
of the TINES, anl all the influence
il may possess, in behalf Of his can
didacy. We believe that he is able
to fill the position, worthy the con-
fdencc of tho electors of tins dis
trict, and willing to devote the best
powers OF his mind and heart to sc.
cure the property and future
greatness of our state. Mr. Driver
is a self made man in the strictest
sense of the term, aud has turned
his early Disadvantages to a good
account by learning from them Il
manly, selfreliant spirit. He has
had the singular merit Of turning
the stumbling blocks Of this life in
to stepping stones. He has known
the feelings of the victor, and he
has experienced the feelings Of the
yanquished and his modcs,y when
victorious has only been equalcd
by his patience in defeat. Besides
all this, Mr.. DRIVE, Is a strictly So
Der man, and such men only are
needed at tins crisis Of our affairs,
in our legislative halls. This is the
demand being made at this time, all
over the state, and we endorse Mr..
Driver as n man Of this character.
We know of no one in this county
better Informed as TO the political
issues ofthe day, nor better instruct
ed III the resources OF our state, or
the best means of developing them.
II Poinsc;t ard jackson counties
will stand by Us in this senatorial
race, we will have a senator who
will impartially represent the iuee
counties, ard make a record as heir
representative Of which they will
feel Justly proud. We know tho
man and his past history, and from
this knowledge, we feel justified IN
all that VIC have sand. We do not
mean to say that he has never made
q mistake, nor committed an error,
but we do mean to say that he has
nobly retrieved such mistakes aGd
errors as ho was conscious of, and
mortal man can do no more. When

The temperance people OF Clark
county are doing a gland work.
Last Saturday night Col. Grace
gave an able address at the a. NJ.
Il. church, at Arkadolphia, to a
large and appreciauvo audience,
followed by another on Sunday.
On Monday Il large union was or
ganizod four miles out at the Unity

the community Daily Arkansas
Union.
And all this IN Arkansolo. The
temperance cause is one Of the most
irrepressIble movements, when
once set agoing, that has ever struck
the contineLt. 1t is now surging
and boiling all through this State,
and is everywhere hailed with JOY
by the people, when the work is
opened up by men not too high
toned and elevated in their notions
TO be useful, as we'll as ornamental,
in their day and generation. When
one of the most prominent candi-
dates for Governor checriully re-
spends to tho wishes Of the tenn
peranco people, and actively en-
gagcs in the work Of temperance
reform, aspirants for the Office OF
Constable and Justice of the Peace
should not be afraid to keep sober.
The people will like them all the
better. The day and the hour has
como when Arkansas is to take a
proud and honorable position in
the sisterhood of States, and the
best signs of this is the steady ad-
vanccs being made all over the
State in planting the seeds of tenn
pergnoc reform.

Our Next Representative.

If we know oursclf, and we think
we do, we have never been inclined
TO 60 wild over a "boom" for IA
vortes for political prefermcnt, at
least, never without first weighing
the capabilities and worth of the
candidates; and as the time is fast
approaching when the people will
be called upon 70 select men to rep
resent them IN every department
of the state government, we should
profit by the experiences OF the
past, and not make decisions until
all the most competent and availa-
bic material has been culled, exam
ined and accepted as proper stuff
to elevate to Office. In casting
about for q man TO fill the Office that
most directly effect the state and
the interest and welfare of her pco-
pie, and one which should be filled
by none but intelligent, sober, ear
nest men-men who have the inter
est of the state and their consttu-
ents at heart, that Of Representative
ls, OF all the many positions of hon
or and trust, the most important.
The last legislative body, so far rs
the good they did is concerned, was
a burlesQue-ln fact, the majority
of the members who composed that
body would like to go behind the
record then made and begin anew

accomplished L,tle of permanent

are sent to legI5latc for them, and
keep the chronic Office seekers al
home. We want cool heads, clear
eyes and unclouded minds, who will
lcgislate in the light of the nine
tcenth century. In looking over
Mississippi county for such man
to represent her interest In the next
legislature, we find none who would
come nearer this standard than our
fellow townsman, Capt. IL. NJ. Nc
Weigh, who, should he permit his
name to go before the people OF
Mississippi county, would, We feel
confident, receive the hearty sup
port OF an overwhelming majority
Of Lcr people. Without disparage-
mcnt TO others who may aspire to
this distinction and solicit the sui.
lragcs Of the people, Capt. McNeigh
possesses in an eminent degree all
the requisites OF which statesmen
are endowed; with large experl-
ence, an able and eloquent lawyer,
with an investigating mind, who
would dare to do right, even though
it were against popular opinion ;
with him to represent Mississippi
county in our legislative Hall, the
states honor and the peoples IN
terest would not suffer.

Hon. Il. Il. KERR, Of Fort Smith,
addresses long letter TO Col. J. l..
Palmer, President Of The State c. L.
t., in which he says:
81 have been reading an account
ofyour temperance convention, and
desire to say that your earnestness
and zeal IN behalf OF christianity
and temperance have excited my
respect and admiration for you per-
sonally."
The letter published in the Ihttle
Rock Democrat is too long for our
columns. Col. Palmer IN his reply
says:
al am greatly obliged for your
kind allusion to the disintcrested
character of my personal labor. |

in this work further than the pleas
ure of doing service TO suffering
humanity, but am ot considerable
expense in carrying forward the

BURNED ALIVE.
SAD FATE OF TWO FIREMEx.
Terrible Scene from the Roof OF u
Burning Buiiding In New York
Brave But Reckless
Unto Death.

New York, Feb. 2O.-The large five-
story iron front building, 3s4 and 1886,
Broadway, was burned this evening.
During progress of the fire two compa-
nies on the roof made an effort to cut
holes through the thick plates of tin,
but, feeling the roof giving away, they
were obliged to retreat.
Two members of hook and ladder
company No. L, Thos. L. Dougherty
and John F. Cassidy, were the last to
desist from their work, and remained
too late to escape. The roof gave way
suddenly near the centre, where they
were standing, and with blanched faces
and cries Of horror the two doomed
firemen fell into the blazing abyss to be
consumed
Their comrades, who saw them dis
appear, were nearly unnamed by the
awful spectacle.
The remaining tiremen on the roof
hastily descended to the ground, and
the attempt to fight the fire from the
roof was abandoned.

Omaha, Feb. 2O.-Daniel O'Leary,
pedestrian, passed through Omaha on
to-day's train for San Francisco where
he is to have six days walking match
with Weston for $4,000 side.
The match was arranged only few
days ago, Weston accepting O'Leary's
challenge, and naming San Francisco
as the place of contest, as he would not
walk with O'Leary in any other city in
the United States.
O'Leary has not been doing any prac-
tice walking for some time past, while
Weston, as he says has been practicing
for the past three months. The match

San Francisco, Feb. 20.-Charles
Colby was to be hanged at Santa Cru,
to-day for the murder of Harry Will
liams in October 1873, but owing to the
negligence On the part of the clerk OF
the supreme court, to which the case
had been appealed, the papers necessary
to carry out the sentence were not re-
