.'The Publishers Commercial Union

Tho Publishers Commercial Union"
This is a new organization, started
in 1880 at Janesville, Wis, under the
general management of Clarence w.
Taylor. The object is to protect the
publishers from advertising frauds,
and to afford facilities for collection
of claims. The members OF the asso-
citation are furnished with weekly
reports of on the standing of regular
advertisers, and whenever new fraud
Is discovered the members are imme.
diately informed of the same. The
cost is but trifiing, compared with the
benefits to be derived, and no doubt
every publisher in this section would
be greatly benefited by membership.

cheaper to buy 2 legislature than It was the people; and he warned them then and there, those who voted against that bill; those who will vote to exempt capital and tax labor; those who favor exempting railroads from taxation, will find when too late that the people two years hence will send men to the lgislature who are the creatures and servants of the people and who will legislate in the interests of the people. The course now being pursued by the house in refusing to pass thls tlll he feared would eventuate and prove death blow to all railroads in the state. Although his friend from Johnson county felt sanguine that reconsid- eration would be had, he entsrta ii. sst
 no such hope; that he could as reas
 onablv expect to go to some lonely graveyard and call upon the silent, sleeping dead to come ferth and they obey his call, to view the great American king, the ''iron horse, with palace cars tied to his taIl, filed with Arkansas legislators with free passes in their pockets, as to expect to revive his bill.

 THE OFFICIAL VOTE.

The delay in ascertaining the ac- tual result of the presidential cleo tion in Texas and certain other States, has left the exact figures of the popular vote in dispute for a longer tune than has beeA usual. The Cincinnati Enquirer has, how eyer, now secured the official figures from all the States, and by these it appears that Hancock's popular ma jority over Garfield is LOG, and that in total vote of 9,l69,2l3 General Garfield falls 336,045 short of ma. jority. The greenback vote aggre- gates 313,s93 against S2,000 in 1876. The total prohibition vote is 10,79l against 9,034 four years ago. In New York State the latter vote shows falling off of nearly forty per cent, and in Ohio, which leads in this vote, the gain in the four years is more than sixty per cent. Miss ouri leads in the greenback column, with Michigan, Iowa, Illinois, Texas Pennsylvania, Kansas following in the order named.

the cotton is packed into it by 2 sIlding reversible packer.
 With s move. device in the follow CT block the Int is packed tight Tn the box from the commencement of the bale, being fer ed in and held muck more compactly than the old system of tramping does it.
 A geared frame underneath the box holds dozen sets of ties, and a few turns of hand wheel puts on the ties and bottom patching all at once, without any pounding or pull ing, and all of equal tension.
 Thus by this improvement and others in the box blocks and do DTS, one man can do in five minutes what it takes two men half an hour to do under the present primitive mode of pressing and taking out bale. Al together, my system will reduce the ginning force to three hands for the largest gins used, and the full capac- ity of any gin in connection with the other parts of this machine is as sured.
 The ordinary gin stand is used with feeder and condenser. and the common wrought iron screw is used in the press.
 No ginhouss is necessary, as . shed or tent will answer every pur- pose.

From Citizen of Shiloh. Editors Russellville Democrat:

I see piece in the Arkansas Demo- crat about taxing drummers- I want to ask the question, what is difference if the drummers travel over the state ; if they sell on commission they add their travelling expenses to their goods, which our merchants pay; if working for a salary the merchant they are tray cling for adds tue expenses to the goods; ard if our merchants go east and buy their goods all expenses are added; so the consumer pays tho ex> penses; so l think it is six of one aud half dozen of the other.
 If mistake not 1 see piece in the Dover items being in favor of doing away with school directors. I think tho better plan would be to have one in each district, and pay him something for his trouble and let the other two work the road. As general rule one has all the business to transact
 I see that some of our legislators were in favor of all able-bodied men between the ages of fifteen and fifty subject to work the roads; it would be well enough to add the young chaps to the road list; for President Buchanan said once in a speech, he had found boys in all the states he had ever been in except Arkansas.

A VALUABLE INVENTION.

P. K. Crowell, of Little Rock, an nounces that he has received letters patent for an invention that promises to reyolutlenize the method of gin. ming and baling cotton. The inysn. ton consists of 8 gin stand and cot ton press combined so as to dispense with the customary gin house and ons-half the help required for the present mode of ginning and bsling cotton. The inventor has thls to say of his invention:
 The press lies horizontally, and
