The Memphiss Avalanche, close
observer Of Arkansas politics, says:
The political situation in Arkan-
sas is interesting. Those who favor
a constitutional amendment have
pressed their cause not only with
yigor but with ability and the earn
estness born of the consciousness
that they have right on their side.
1t is evident that the anti amendment
wing of the party is weakening. But
they are not yet ready to make a
complete surrender, In the ranks
of this division are too many politi-
clans, who have long held the reign
of power, and who have assumed to
dictate the policy of the party to
quietly step aside while other lead
ers come to the front aud march 10

Again let MS remind the candidate
that it is wisdom to stay at home.
The people are very busy with their
crops. Tney are working manfully
TO recover from the effects of the
drouth and overflow. Let us not
harrass them with great many sp-
pointments for public speaking. if
the candidate wishes to commune
with the sovereigns let him use the
press as a medium. Let him write
his piece rather than speak it. The
sovereigns will be glad to read it in
their state paper or his county paper.
He will read it on SUNDAYS or at
night when it will not interfere with
his work. The DEMOCRAT is relig-
lously opposed to so much stumping.
1t is not in the interest of better
government. Much less is it in the
interests of better corn and cotton.
This one year let us not worry the
people when they are SO anxious to
work. Little Rock Democrat.

all crop reports are favorable, showing
wheat is safe from tie weather and the
only thing that may occur from corn to
come is from early frosts. Prices, never
theless, made q strong advance all
around, corn being particularly buoyant.
1t is believed one cause Of the advance
was the decision Of the arbitration COM

Chicago, Gone Of the prominen: rail
road men of the country said yesterday
in conversation that the secret of the
alleged purchase of the hannibal and st.
Joe railroad by Jay Gould was this:
Last year Mr. Duff, of Boston, bought
common stock of the road. 10000 shares,
and ran corner on it, which was unsuc-
cessful. The stock has been carried by
brokers for him, and they were unwilling
to hold it any longer without more mar
gin. The Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy people have been negotiating
with Duff for some time, but were IN
willing to pay his prices. Gould and
others made syndicate and bought Duff
out. The purchase was not In the inter-
eat Of the Wabash system, which has q
direct route to Kansas City. but simply 8
speculation. Since the Chicago, Bur-
lington and Quincy has extended its road
to Denver, it has the advantage Of the
Union Pacific, whose eastern terminal
points are Omaha and st. Joe. Likely
as not the purchase was ia the interest Of
the Union Pacific, to give it direct route
into Chicago.

An Unlucky illustration.

II is one thing to tell story and an
other to tell an aW one President
Lincoln could always "rclatc a ciTcum-
stance" exactly pat 10 the ease in hand
A lawy cr in court who undertakes the
same should he shrcwd in hischoicc and
sense of fitness shrcwd enough at least
to see that he does not chit the Jury.
A lawyer from Columbus, Ga, says
local paper, attended the Superior Court
of Stewart County, which has been in
session during the week In the progress
of the court he was employed to defend
man who was charged with stealing
hog.
The evidence was circumstantial, and
the lawyer was particularly happy in
detailing how often men had been con
victcd upon circumstantial evidence, and
it afterwards appeared that they were
innocent
He rccited a case in which man was
charged with murder A man was kill
ed, the accused was seen near the spot
with bloody knife in his hand and
blood upon his clothing. 1t was also
proven that the accused was bitter
enemy of the dead man, and all the
circumstances pointed to his guilt be.
yond the shadow of doubt
The presiding officer, Judge Hale
charged the jury, and expected them to
return in few minutes with u verdict
of guilty, They all agreed but one
man, and reported the fact to the Judge
He sent them out again and the same
thing was repeated for number of
times, and finally he discharged the jury
with severe reprimand
The Judge was curious to know why
the juror would not agree to the verdict,
and sent for him, when he asked,
'Wby was it that you would not find
a verdictP'
"Tll tell you, Judge, upon one condi-
ton, and that is you must swear you'I
never tell it,
The Judge agreed to it, and then said
81 killed that man myself"
When Solicitor Grimes time came he
turned it very nicely; he began his
speech by saying that he fully agreed
that circumslantial evidence should be
carefully weighed He did not believe,
however, that the above case was APP
plicable to the one being tried. He did
not believe that there was a man on the
jury who would be guilty of stealing n
hog, but if there was, aud he had stolen
the hog in question, he certainly could
not censure him for not finding the pris-
oner guilty
At this point the lawyer got very
much interested, aud rose to explain to
the court and jury thathe didnot intend
that any such construction should be
put upon his remarks, and hoped they
would not think So II certainly was
not applicable, FOR they found the ac-
cused guilty of stealing the hog
