WOMAN'S CHRISTIAN Ma.
TIONAL LIBRARY ASSO-
CIATION.

This association was formed q
year or more ago by few Christian,
noble ladies of Hot Springs city, for
the purpose of establishing and
maintaining a circulating library for
the benefit and amusement of the
thousands of people who visit the
city on account Of her famous wa
tiers. 1t is well known fact that
thousands of people visit Hot Springs
who have ''raked and scraped" every
available cent in order to avail them
selves of the salutary effects of her
thermal waters, and therefore are
not able to buy books and papers
with which to while away the draa
ging hours through which inva
pass. The noble ladies who cor
pose this association, seeing this la
mentable condition of the sick poor,
and inspired with holy desire to
sooth the aching hearts, and allevi-
ate the sufferings of their fellow
creatures, went to work, without
money and without reputation for
founding institutions, and formed
and put in operation this library as

eminent, but if suffering man is in

necessary for the alienation of his

happiness, she has faculty for in

man. 1t is her delight to do some
thing good for her race; she has al
ways been equal to the creates,
emergencies in this respect. These
noble ladies of Hot Springs, who
have formed this association solely
for the good of their race, will by
this means WELD an influence that
will be felt from pole to pole, and

HYPOCRISY OF THE PRESS.

We have been astonished, and
dumbfounded, and Disguised many
times, over the hypocrisy of the
press. Every issue of the majority
OF publications, contain endorse
ments of various things that the
editor Goes not believe, and would
not tolerate for a moment. Some
body sends hun an advertisement
advertising some article that is OBJ
scene and pernicious, and because il
is paid for he calls special attention
TO II, and that too, in very compli.
mentary terms. The people depend
ing on the reality and honesty of the
hypocritic editor, take hold of the
goods advertised, lose confidence in
the editor, and curse the whole press
fraternity. And they are not to be
censured for it. If editors wopld
not endorse anything in their papers.
which they cannot endorse and re.
commend personally, the standard OF

Bible Society.

Editor Democrat:
wish TO state through the col
umns of your paper that the Aux
Hilary Bible Society of Russellville
and Vicinity, has undertaken the
work Of supplying the Bible to every
person in Pope County.
To do this the executive com
mittee have invested all the funds oil
the society in Bibles and Testaments,
and have employed colporteur in
the person Of Rev. Crowder Moseley,
to canvass the county. to sell Bibles
and Testaments to those who orc
wiling and able to boy, to donate to
those who are unable to purchase,
and to offer free to those who are
unwilling to pay for them. Brother
Moseley will call at every house, ir-
respective of standing, position, race,
color or previous condition, and
hope that every person
will buy something, and
that those who are able,
land who is it that is not able) will
contribute something toward the
cause. Brother Moseley will have
TO depend on his sales and contribu i.
tions for his salary, and while he is
to only get certain price for his
services, so that ifhis receipts are
more than his salary, the balance
will 60 into the treasury. On the
other hand il the receipts are below
his stated salary, he will have to
lose the difference, and as this is a
question on which all dcnomina tions,
and all lovers OF morality and good
government can agree, let us all join
hands and help the good work along.
let everybody give Brother Moseley

being made in certain quarters to
get up money panic. Il is claimed
that the same circumstances and
conditions Of commerce, the same
characteristics of export fluctuations,
that preceded and brought Oh the
financial disaster Of '73, are mani
testify eliminating into similar re-
suit. 10000 miles Of railroad were
built in the United States during
the three years Immediately preced-
ing the financial crash Of '73 which
absorbed about 100000, 900, and
this is claimed as one Of the chief
causes of that ever memorable money
panic. During the last three years,
$4,000 miles of railroad have been
built at cost of about $500, 000, 600.
On the first day in this month $1O,-
100000 of government bonds became
due, and on the same day $2,700,000
of interest on the public debt, were
payable. Besides these last sums,
large sums are being invested in
Canada and Mexico. Frank Leslie's
Illustrated Weekly Newspaper, one
of the most ably edited journals in
the world, has an article on the sub
ject, in which the author argues
that the influx of foreign capital suf-
ficientlv exceeds the investment of
American funds in other countries,
to prevent disaster. But there
may be danger. 1t is too early yet
to lose anything on the present wheat
crop; and it is also too early, to
make safe calculations on the fruit
crop. Cattle are astonishingly high,
with very few to export. And be-
side all this, we are approaching a
political crisis, the elimination of
which will be in the presidential
campaign of 1884. Political jobbers
are already at work-in fact they are
the instigators of all this anticipated
calamity. II republican tricksters
can, by any means whatever, wheth-
er legitimate or otherwise, bring
about financial crash, and then be
successful in palming it off on the
democratic party, it will be Glover
for the republican in the coming
campaign. And the trlcksters in
the democratic party are no frcel
from such tricks and schemes than
those of the republican party. Here
is where much cause of alarm exists
The parties want power, and if they
can get it by locking the Golfers, and
crying "panic," they are glad OF
such an opportunity. The simple
operations Of trade and commerce
do not control, exclusively, our great
| financial system,

THE SCHOOLTAx.

There will be an election on Sat
urday the 10th inst, to vote for or
against five mill tax for school
purposes, in all the school districts
OF the state. 1t is the duty of school
directors 20 give due notice of this
election. In addition to giving a
mere legal notice directors as the
local representatives and presumpt-
i've leaders in all educational inter
ests, should urge upon their friends
and neighbors the duty of attending
the annual meeting and of voting
the full five mill tax.-Arkansas
Democrat.
1t is the indispensable duty of
cry voter in every district, to
sent himself at the poles on ii.
aforesaid day and cast his vote in
favor of the five mill tax for the sup
port of public free schools. We need
and we must have a system of free
schools that will lay the privileges
of an education at the door of every
one. In the New England states
where good system of free schools
is supported by taxation, the com
mon people and all are literally edu-
Gated. Those who are educated in
these states in the free schools, farm
ish us with our literature, our books,
and our systems of instruction. Not
only that, but there is more prosper
ity, general and otherwise, in the
New England states, than in our
own. Statistics seem to bear out
the idea, that there is more prosperi-
ty in every state and country where
the people are educated than where
they are not. The southern people
have long fostered the idea, that ed
ucation is only intended to keep
people from work, enable them to
make living without manual labor.
and that an educated gentleman is
not fitted to farm life. 1t is need
less to say, that such an idea is cr-
roneous. 1t will prevail, however,
till we have a better system Of edu
cation. The opportunity is now of
fcred, and we hope every voter in the
state will lay aside his avocations
long enough, to go and vote The
only remedy for ignorance, is educa-
ton.
