TWO KINDS or DEMOCRATS.

General Gordon, of Georgia, is a representa-
tive man. Judging from the letter on the
Speakcrship which he recently sent To aid Nh.
Randall he represents the Democratic party i'll
one respect at least, more nearly than most
other leaders of that party. He is at heart, he
saws. in favor Of Il tariff for revenue only. But
that is "a question which may safely be de-
fcrred until after the next Presidential cleo
ton" he says Indeed, he thinks it must be so
deferred in order to secure the Presidency for
the Democratic party, for, right or wrong, the
suppression prevails throughout business
circles that any radical change in the tariff at
@prcscnt would be detrimental to our National
"progress and prosperity" This has been the
policy actually pursued by the Democratic
party for years. 1t wants free trade, knows
that it must get the Presidency first, and there
fore is continually of the opinion that the qucs-
ton "may be safely deferred until after the
next Presidential election" II will be best for
business men to remember this letter and its
shrcwd advice, when they come to consider
their duty next fall.
Mr.. Gordon, however, does not represent the
whole party Ii is the opinion of Mr.. Morrison,
of Illinois, according to Il recent interview, that
| there Is no reason why the Democrats should
" DO placed in power, if Mr.. Randall represents
" his party" That is, the party has no business
to get power by fraud, and 10 business to ask
power if it does not mean to make Il change in
| the tariff That opinion was also expressed by
| the enthusiastic Mr. WattersOn: /" If the party
| is not for revenue only, it Is nothing to me-" he
declared. Now these gentlemen, and others
like them, represent the other end of the party.
| They want change, and think it honest to say
so. General Gordon wants the same change but
thinks it honest to say nothing. 1t is between
| these two kinds of Democrats that the RESPONSE
bility for control of taxation will rest, if bust
ness men see fit to trust that party next year.
This country is not going to ruin. Its people
have too much cOmmon-sense. Neither the
Democrat who wants to get the Presidency by
holding his tongue, nor the Democrat who
wants TO insist upon free trade, Presidency or
no Presidency, is the right man to have charge
of public affairs. When it comes to voting, tlo
practical people Of this country will intrust

II il whispered about the State House nj Albany,
and the rumOr has found its way into leading
Democratic papers that COntrOller-ccct Chaplin has
determined to remove Henry Gallien the present
Deputy Controller. Mr.. Chapin's course during the
late canvass scarcely served to advance his roputa-
finn and if he il anxious to make it impossible to
rcgard him otherwise than as cheap schemlng
poIitcian he cannot do better than make this re-
mOyal.
MIR. Gallicn has been connected with the Con-
trollers Office ia various capacities for over twenty
wears and always to the public advantage. The
state never had faithful or efficient servant.
He has served under Democratic as well as Repub-
lican administrations. and to-day is probably more
familiar with the fiscal affairs of the State III all
their details than any other man. No reason is as
signed for the removal, but the fact that prOmi-
neut Democrat Is mentioned as Mr., Gallions sue
ccssor goes to show that, whatever may be Mr.
Chapins civil service convictions on the stump, In
practice ho holds that TO the victor belongs the
spoils. There may, indeed, bo another reason Con.
troler Davcnports letter to The TRIBUNE in TO-
gard to the taxes rendered Mr.. Chapm laughing
stock during the latter part of tho late canvass
Can it be that the COntrOller-elect purposes to
get evenp with Mr.. Davenport by removing his
deputy' For his own sake, and for tho sake Of tnt
public service, Mr.. Chaplin would do VOL to think
twice before he does this thing.

represent all shades of political opinion-and

Governor Cleveland has the opportunity, py
the appointment of a thoroughly non-partlsan
Democrat, to do the people the great pubic
service of taking the District Attorneyship out
of politics. In so doing he will not only avoid
making enemies in his own party, since III
pleasing one faction he must necessarily offend
the others, but he will raise himself in general
public estimation That is great deal better
than mere partisan support from any political
faction. VIII Governor Cleveland give us

The cloud glow at sunset last night as seen
from this city was remarkable and beautiful
and deeply impressed all who watched it. For
an hour and quarter after the sunset gun was
heard. the western sky was glowing ms with
fine flames of a furnace sevcnfold heated. The
retroactive condition of the atmosphere was
such that tongues of fire seemed to be curl
ing upward to a great height. Pedestrians
bnrrying home, thought and said that there
was a great fire in the lower part OF the CITY,
and uptown considerable alarm was expressed.
Even members of the Fire Patrol, experienced
as they are, sent out to inquire where the great
conAagration was. Remarkable sunset effects
in England have been described lately in the
scientific journal Nature but the sunset OF last
evening as seen from Ncwlorli was certainly
as singular and beautiful as any mentioned III
that paper. A writer in Nature suggests that 1t
would be an interesting scientific question to
determine the height of the clouds which reflect
the SUMS light so long after the sun itself has
disappeared below the horizon.

The festivities in the larger Spanish cities IN
honorof the German Crown Prince continue with
splendor and apparently withreal sincerity; but
neither Madrid nor Toledo is Spain, and the
Liberals and Republicans throughout the KING
dom are not enthusiastic about the royal visit.
No incident has yet occurred which shows that
q formal alliance exists between Germany and
Snoip. or that one will soon be made. Indeed it
rnvor has been clear what Protestant Germany
could give Catholic Spain as compensation ior
the loss of the friendship of France winch
would surely follow an agreement between
Bismarck and the King. Moreover II the
nation should get the idea that Alfonso hoped TO
increase his prerogatiycs as monarch through
German aid the Bourbon might have to fly from
his native country as his mother did before
him.

Republican enrolment In this CITY Is
splendid success. The number OF voters VINO
placed their names on the Assembly DISTRICT
lists yesterday was 1882; on the first day.
$3.50 were enrol led, and on the second, e,9o9;
making total of 1854. This is nearly hve
times as many voters as took an active part IN
the old associations. The action of the party
in this city now, in all the preliminary business
of the canvass, may be considered as some
thing like fair representation of the opinions
of Republican voters. Everybody had chance
to enroll, and it is gratifying that so many
awaited themselves of the opportunity. Inc
result nromises well for future Republican sue

 Last week an itinerant photographer oi this city brought up in a small town in New Jersey, and at once proceeded to business. At the first residence he asked the lady of the house if he could take view of her house. Don't want any views. You couldn't take view with that old ma chine anyhow. Suppose was out in the front yard, nobody would know me in the picture The man of the camera ex- plained how perfect his machine was for instantaneous views, but the woman re- fused to listen to him. He then went 10 the next house and there got an order tor a view.
 When he began to arrange his instru- ment the woman No. came over. her curiosity getting the better, and the lady whose house was 10 be taken invited her to stand in the front yard 10 help form a group. Woman No. was SO afraid her new silk dress wouldn't show to good advantage that she seated herself on the step of ladder that stood alongside the fence. Just before everything was ready she concluded that the fiounces would show better if she stood up, and accord ingly rose up. Then the photographer lifted the cloth from the muzzle of the camera and turned his back 10 the scene Jus, as the woman fell from the top of the ladder on to the fence and caught her foot between the pickets. She hung there all through the exposure of the plate. and the photographer. unheeding her cries for help, proceeded to develop the negative. He found splendid picture of a woman hanging head down from a picket fence. The woman by this time had got loose from the fence and asked to have look at the plate, when she al- most fainted away Ina, night her hus- band called on the photographer and paid him $50 cash for the picture. Ye, why man would want a picture of his wife hanging from fence is more than anybody can tell.

A Suggestion.

The people generally, and advertisers especially, should not fail 10 remember that THE ARKANsAw TRAVELLER, while it enjoys national reputation, has To- cal circulation much larger than that of any paper published in Little Rock. There are few reading families in the city or in any of the neighboring towns who do not receive THE ARKANsAw TRAv- ELER regularly. IL is understood that the object of advertising is 10 make your name and business known in the com munity from which you wish to receive trade. To secure this result you should advertise in that journal which has the largest circulation in ,ha, community THE ARKANsAw TRAVELLER is that jour- nal.
