TIE senior class of 1882 in the State University have written a long letter to the Little Rock Democrat in which they very conclusively demonstrate the iact that the retire ment of Gen. D. H. Hill from the presidency ofthat institution would be detrimental to it's best interests. It Is hoped by many, who have watched the administration of Gen. Hill, that he will reconsider the mat. ter and withdraw his resignation, for Arkansas cannot well spare such men of ability from the ranks of her educational army, and the DEMOCRAT joins in the general desire that his services may be retained at the Uni. versity.

As YET we have heard nothing from any member of the democratic executive committee for the fifth judicial circuit, whose names we pub lished few weeks ago. The com mittee should hold a meeting at the earliest possible moment and fix the time for holding the district conven- ton, so that the county conventions, which will assemble within the next month, can appoint delegates there to. Prompt action should character lze every movement of the party in the approaching campaign, to the end that the forces may be gotten we'll in hand and leave no weak points in the line that the opposition can take advantage of.

lT Is time that the people were considering the question whether or not they will have this year in Pope county the delegated county convcn- tion or primary election system for the nomination of county officers. We again urge upon them the neces
 sity of deciding ths question in their approaching township elections, so that the delegates to the county convention, to be held at Dover, June 1, may go up fully instructed to say which system they prefer. By adopting the county nominating convention, the party will not only return to the plan of the fathers, but will be benefited in another sense. The primary election system will take from their work for one day large number of farmers and labor.

MUCH has been done in Arkansas in the past year in the cause of pub lie education, but much more get remains to be done. It behoovcs every good citizen, every lover of his country, to do all in his power to place the means of obtaining an ed
 ucation in the hands of every one. The state has made wise provis- ion in legislating on this all-impor- tant question. It has said to the the qualified electors of each school district, ''you can vote tax, not ex- ceeding five mills, for the support of your free public schools" The time IS drawing near when the people will have an opportunity of exercising the privilege. Will they do it? Let every voter go to the polls on the third Saturday in May, the time fixed by law, and vote the full limit of the tax. If you want new school house in your district, or wish to furnish one already built, the voters have the privilege of designating on thelr ballots whether or not the tax, all or portion of it, shall be levied for that purpose. Or the tax can be voted for the teachers fund. Thus it will be seen that the people have it within their power to make the system Tn each district effective in the highest degree. Already Arkan- sas has gone rapidly to the front in the matter of the pubhc education of the masses, and let it nos be said that any district within her borders will take a step backward in the grand march of the mighty educa- tional army. Let every voter and friend of education east his vote on the third Saturday in May in favor of the school tax, and their action will be another argument in addition 10 the many already made that Ar. kansas is the land of progress and and the country the intelligent immigrant is looking for.
