The Russellville Democrat., 1882-03-23

The DEMOCRAT heartily endorses the following complimentary notice of tue worthy state superintendent of public instruction from the Little Rock Gazette:
 It is understood that Prof. James L. Denton will be a candidate for re election as state superintendent of public instruction, an office in whose administration he has won universal applause. Prof Denton is as intelligent as indcfaugable in discharging his public duties, and since entering upon them in Novem Der, 1878, the attendance in the pub lie schools of the state has increased 64,S79 pupils, and the annual reve. nucs for school purposes have shown an increase of $530, 26. These facts, combined with the general. increase in efficiency of management through out the state, due in great part to his efforts, create for Prof Denton q rec ord which explains hls great popn larty as the chief Of our education al bureau.

KIND WORDS.

The following from the pen ofDr. Mcclure, the able editor of the told reliable" Arkansian, is duly appre ciate6:
 Col w. L. Morris assumed edi torial charge ofthe Russellville DEM ocRAT this week. We congratulate the Publishers of the paper, on SC curing hIs valuable services and are highly gratified to have our old as sociate at the head of our contempo rary For more than seven years the Arkansian and DEMOCRAT have moved on side by side without a jostle, and in the years to come we confidently hope forperfeet harmony and good will in allonr fights for the dear people, and our own struggles for success. The Arkansian hearti- ly congratulates the DEMOCRAT on it's prosperity and wishes it long life of usefulness and prosperity.
 Those excellent gentlemen, Messrs. Williams and Bernard, editors of the Dardanelle Post, know how to say good words briefly and pointedly, and the following compliment is ac- cepted with many thanks:
 Col W. l.. Morris is now the cd. itor of the Rnssellville DEMOCRAT. Though long one of the best county papers in the State. the DEMOCRAT offers to lead out. We congratulate the DEMOCRAT.
 We tip our hat and make our best bow to Col. D. A. Brewer, tho tai ented editor of the Little Rock Ga zette, for the following complimen tary notice, and assure him and the brethren of the press, generally, that we hope to always merit their good opinion:
 Mir. W. l.. Morris, late of the Helena Yeoman, has become editor of the Russelville DEMOCRAT. Thus one of the ablest, most conservative of our state exchanges, has passed to the control of gentleman who will in nowise lower but advance the high standard erected by his prede- cesscr. He Is a gentleman of abili- l ty. possessed of considerable expe. rience In journalism and will not fail to strengthen the DEMoCRAT's firm hold on the esteem of the people of that section of the state.
 Many thanks to our respected brother Clark, of tue Arkade lphia Standard, for the following flatter ing notice:
 Capt. ". L. Morris, formerly oI the Helena Yeoman, has assumed editorial charge of that sterling dem ocratic paper the Russellvile Dem ocrat. He is forcible and graceful writer

THE "MOkAL VINEYARD. ,"

Dr. McGuire, editor of the Arkan, sian, in mentioning the removal of the Evangel to this city, says;
 We wish to see it grow and pros per and exert great good in the State, The ARKANsIAN will try to fill the void made by the removal of the Evangel to Russellville, and as the great religious weekly in these parts, glve It's readers good and wholesome food.
 Now Doctor, "yust sthop leedle" The DEMOCRAT people have filed an application for q copyright to use the term "great religious weekly of Arkansas" and that operates as Q check on any other paper using It. But there is plenty o1 room for a multiplicity of religious journals, and as the "plan of salyatlon' IS not quite exhausted, we conclude that it may be best to let the Arkansian help us work up "boom" in this portion of the moral vineyard"
