Arkansas weekly mansion., 1883-09-29
The Democrat has mapped out

work enough Tor the grand jury.
at Its next session, in the matter
of overhauiing the ''fakering
to occupy its time for
fortnight at least. We hope that
they will hew to the line, and
meantime let no guilty man es-
cape. The matter of examining
the justices dockets we hope will
not be referred this time to an ex-
squire, who of all this bad lot
needed the worst sort of over
hauling, as was done by the last
grand jury.
IL j Ketcher & Co., the hard
ware dealers, No 3O2 East Mark
ham street. have on hand the now
elites of the season. They have
FOR sale at very low prices, the
American range for hot and cold
water. THE ROYAL AMERICAN is
the leading novelty. The Elber-
son heater and the Kentucky
Bell are all meeting the approval
of our most advanced citizens.
Call and see for yourselves before
purchasing elsewhere. +
Justice Chamberlin, who has
been so beautifully shown up by
the Democrat Gin ways that were
dark" and exceedingly questions
able, in the business OF his office,
has made several abortive at
temps of late, to attract public
notice. The last effort was the
publishing OF a garbled memo
randum from the minutes of the
county court in reference to Judge
Patton, which was very puny
bantling indeed. /
A railroad is being constructed
in North Carolina which is to be

Last Monday at the appointed
time, the press, governor and in
vited guests left Little Rock via
Memphis and Little Rock rail
road. The train was well crow
ded with editors. Every one ex-
pressed themselves highly pleas
ed with the thought of Arkan-
sas day in Louisville. We trust
it may prove the grandest of all
other days during the exposition,
and our happy pressmen will en-,
Joy themselves as they desire, ,and
return with happy hearts.
