Delegates 10 tho Chicago
Convention.

Besides nominating candidates for
state offices, it will devolve upon
the Democratic State Convention to
send delegates to the National Dem.
ocratic Convention which meets in
Chicago in July.
This is an important matter and
none but the best men in the state
should be sent. We would like to
see such a man as Hon. Tom G Nc
Crae, of Nevada county, sent there.
He is known all over the state as an
orator, a statesman and gentleman
of unblemished character. He
would make his mark in the conven-
ton. Two years ago our county
instructed for him for congressman
at large, and we have no doubt will
gladly instruct her delegates to the
State Convention to vote for MIN as
a delegate to the National Conven-
ton.

McGAvocK, Mississippi Co., Ark.
FELLOW CITIzENs:-ln announc-
ing myself as a candidate for re-elec-
tion, | do so with the full conscious
ness that | have during the present
term, served you with fidelity, and
it will give me pleasure before the
election, to render to you an account
of my stewardship.
Your Democratic Executive Com
mittee have exercised power you
never delegated. They have ordered
you to instruct your delegates to the
county convention of June 9th,
(whose business alone is to elect
delegates to the State Congressional
and Senatorial Conventions, and an
Executive Committee,) for nomi-
nation by the party of all county
officers. The committees powers
are only advisory. "The People
Rule" and if you instruct your del
egates to the June 9th convention
to consult together, and if thought
best, order an election for conven-
ton to be held (say about the last
of August, when our crops are fin
ished,) for the purpose of nominat-
ing a Democratic County Ticket, or
name a time tor general primary
election, it will give me pleasure to
cooperate.

Mississippi County IN the lower

No better man could be sent to rep

that he raised himself-having come

friends of all whom he came in con-

From all over the county we
hear encouraging news for the
County Convention, and we would
say to the voters to let no design
ing candidate cause you to deviate
from your path of duty on the 3lst.
The charge that one man can stock a
convention is too silly for sensible
man to heed. The candidate who
has no other stock of "taffy" on
hand had as wei! prepare for the
"Salt River Packet" We would
like to hear from Democrats all over
the county on this subject. We
must nominate our man and stick to
him. Let your friend who is a
candidate wait, and develop his
strength by the next election. A.

WHlTEWASH.

This important material should
be literally used. 1t is one of the
things YOU can't get too much of.
1t is a thing of beauty. A town with
well whitcwashcd houses is an at
tractivc sight. Houses, fences, out
buildings, inside as well as outside,
should be provided with a coat of
this wonderful material. That it is
a common, well-known substance
does not prevent its being wonder
full. Did you ever stop to think
about it? If you have not you
know not half its uses. Il you have,
it can do no harm to think about it
again.
1t is, in the first place, orna-
mental-not as ornamental as paint,
that is good paint; but it is supe-
rior to poor paint. Anicely white
washed house and outbuildings,
with fences treated in like manner,
can not but be admitted, have a
pleasant effect. You need not con-
fine yourself to the special color
white. You can have any color
YOU wish. The lime is the great
thing, not the coloring matter you
put with it. 1t also preserves
fences and buildings from decay.
1t is healthy, for lime is Il splen-
did disinfectant. Whitewashing as
a sanitary measure should be ex-
tcnsively practiced. And finally,
it is a safeguard against fire. A
whitewashed plank, is as nearly
fireproof as it is possible to make a
plank. Whitewashed buildings
within twenty or thirty feet of a
burning building have stood the
intense heat without injury. 1t is
a difficult matter to start a fire with
whitewashed material, and a house
thoroughly whitewashed is nearly
fircproof. SO don't hesitate to
whltcwash freely. 1t is cheap, or.
namcntal, economical, protection
against fire. Whitewash.

HOW DETAILS HURT FREE
TRADE.

The Commercial-Herald took
quinine for q text recently and
showed by figures how the removal
of duty on it had brought down the
price, and preached quite an clo-
qucnt free trade sermon. Andnow
come the details of the reasons for
the reduction, and free trade can go
and drown itself as far as quinine
is concerned:
"Thcre has been a big drop i'll
the price of quinine, and it is now
being sold to druggists in Philadcl-
phia and elsewhere at lower figures
than ever before. The combina-
ton of American and European
manufacturers, which heretofore
controlled the entire markets of the
world, has gone to pieces. The
effect of the tumble, it is said, will
be to reduce the price of pills about
ten or fifteen cents a dozen, which
will he hailed with delight by those
whose ague or malaria compcls
them to invest rather largely in
quinine. About January l Euro
pcan quinine was quoted at 81 60
per ounce and American quininc ut
81 So per ounce. In consequence
of the fire, at Powers & Weight
mans, in Philadelphia, the price OF
American quinine rose to 81 90per
ounce for large lots and 81 10 for
small orders. During the first three
days of last week 10000 ounces
were sold in New York alone. The
agents of the foreign manufacturers
on Saturday last offered to deliver
future orders at 81 OF - per ounce.
Buyers freely offered 81 05 pei
ounce. American qulnine sold III
various lots on Saturday for from
81 Is to 81 80 per ounce. When
the market closed on Saturday the
most complete uncertainty pre-.
vailed as to the future course of the
foreign and domestic manufactur.
crs. 1t is believed that some ar.
engagements will be entered into
soon, because the makers can not
afford TO sell at the present figures
However, small dealers in the
North have taken advantage of tn,

good stock. IT. ID.

the numbers here were compare
lively few, yet they went to swell
the mighty chorus of 10000 voices
which, in laundering tones, pro-
claimed the supremacy Of Demo
cratic principles in this State.
Sweet as was the music with which
he was complimcnted, tcn-fold
swcetcr was that concert of voices
of the apostles of Democracy, who,
with their very lives, were ready
to uphold their political faith and
principles.
He said he would find it exceed
ingly strange if those who had
claimed victory in East Baton
Rouge should be admitted into the
Democratic caucus when the Gen
cral Assembly convened on the
18th of May, but he rather believed
they would be placed alongside of
those dark sons of toll at whose
feet they had recently worshipped.
