when the bondmen offered to perform the service,
and when the contract was about to De let to the
next highest bidder, at $4,000, witness had talk
with Brady and said he wanted to save his money
He told Brady he (witneSS) had the stock on the

$4,000. He talked TO Brady about the chances OF
his getting the route expedited, but Brady gave
him no satisfaction Witness got up petitions for

the hope OF getting expedition; but Kinds kept up
the war and witness was advised that he could
get along unless he placated Kinds. He protested
that he didn't owe Kinds, etc; Kinds had threat
ened to have an investigation, and charged that
witness had PAID money to Brown for Brady.
Finally, Kinds called on wit"nsS and they had a
talk. Kinds demanded $50 COO Witness replied:
"My God, Kinds, don't owe you any thing; can't
pay that. II do, I'll never see daylight" Kinds
replied that 1t was useless to talk about that

he could, without injury to himself and here

Walsh added, In a manner that amused the com.

THERE has been no flourish of
trumpets nor marshaled finmery in
the vicinity of the new president
elect. 1t is observed he has to a
healthy degree the dispositi on to
make haste slowly, at any rate he is
not seized with a frenzy to do things
until about the right time. After
every body else has made his cabinet
for him twenty times or more, then
he will make one for himself. No
one will deny now that the democra
cy has given the country cool head
ed conservative president, and, since
we come to think of II, it is in the
habit of doing this very thing. The
lnroads were made upon the consti-
tuition and customs of the country
not by democratic administrations.
Let the powerful point of this OBJ
servation be fixed in the minds OF
the people.

THE western border Of Arkansas

The merchants and business men

The merchants and business men
are receiving drafts of a national
bankrupt law upon which their opin-
ion is sought to enable an expression
in the shape of such a law as is ask
ed or required by the business ne.
cessities Of the people. We doubt
very seriously that any solid benefit
can come ola bankrupt law, be it
based on the very best possible reas-
ons for such legislation. 1t dam
ages more than it benefits. 1t is q
fact proven by all past experience
that such laws are the refuge of a
few honorable cases, and all the ras
Gals who can make the measure prof.
table. 1t is also a fact that bank
rupt law, with men half disposed to
be dishonest any way, stands as an
inducement to develop their rascal
ty, offering them u respectable re
treat and shield behind which they
can hide all the shame and disgrace
of their dishonesty. However, there
arc some strong reasons urged for
the adoption Of bankrupt law, and
it is thought probable that congress
will pass one at this session.

Mr.. Levi p. Morton, whose name
is not untainted of various jobs and

lead y the race for United States
Senator in New York. A party that
allows its worst elements to thrust
themselves to the fore. front in its
leadership, must expect to meet the
public condemnation. The New
York World, and other democratic
papers, favor the election OF Conk-
ling for the course he took in the
recent presidential election,
The Russellville Democrat., 1884-12-18

THE recent treaty orawn up be-
tween this country and Spain among
other things reducing import duties
on Cuban tobaceos will hardly meet
the approval of this country so long
as the internal revenue tax is laid
on that article grown in America.
This part of the treaty will hardly
be confirmed.
