THE Dardanelle Post is a yersetii

HE Dardanelle foSt IS YerSat1le c ~si.eet in it's way. When it lacks candid, truthful matter out of which to draft its utterances it lays embar- go on it's mental resources to frame them out of another kind. In fact it appears to be more at home on this side than that. What in the world it wanted to go out of it's way to make the assertion that the DEMOCRAT gave Senator Jones as authority for It's views as expressed Tn regard to the difficulty of improvement of the river at Dar- danelle, is past comprehension on any other theory than it had set it. self down to square piece ofpre- varication and yet this is right hard to believe, for as general thing the Post manages to employ little in genuity at any rate in order to give some sort of coloring of truth and reason to what it has to say, but in this it hasn't bit. We stated that Senator Jones on the platform at this place, had expressed just about what we had said on the subject and we mentioned it as a matter of cor roboration, and to show we were not alone in the difficulty we saw in the way of the inn provements referred to, and that the Senator was simply giving what he had heard at Dardanelle, and that several of our citizens heard him make the statement. We can give the names of these citizens who heard what the Senator said. May be the Post don't think the Senator said anything about the matter and that the DEMOCRAT hasn't got the names of our citizens who heard him, as It says it has no doubt that the reference to the Senator was un jus, etc. But you see he did and we have the proof by our best citi zens of the fact and the Post can hang itself up on the nice little di- lema of either seeing things wrong or seeing them right to willfully state them wrong.

IF is an amusing pastime some

IT is an amusing pastime some times, anu instructive as well, to try the experiment of fitting men in the canvass to men in office. In the canvass listen at the candidate as he dwells upon the woes of the people on account of high taxes. h office listen at the same fellow just little while later recommending raise in those very taxes. You ask what is the matter. Were tue taxes really burdensome then, or was he simply working his little scheme to get elected. If they were burdensome then, what must they be now with the raise, etc, etc, in the same line of reasoning till you get tired, but not satisfied.

HE signs point to struggle on the silver question. The enemies of silver feel comforted by the presl- dents message and that paper has the appearance of containing some good reasoning on the subject. Bu, it will strike the people at large as specious. The common people whe form the greater bulk of our popula' tion and who are struggling with the question of support and how te get it readily take the first dollar handed them and in practice they know no distinction whatever be- tween gold and silver or any thing else under the sanction of the gov ernment. It Is useless to go to these people who are already pinched witl the scarcity of money with the prop osition to eliminate silver from the currency and shrink it's volume te the amount of silver cut of. Wt say it is useless because while peo pie are as anxious to get silver ol any thing else as they are now they will never see tue force of the logic nor concent for it to be employed which proposes to narrow the stand ard of our currency and reduce it tt gold and gold only. The contest or the silver question is lead by the bankers and money lenders on the one side and by the commonality oI the yeodle on the other. The former shape their theories with view to profit while the latter are driven by their necessities and by the force of numbers, are now, we think, and will remain in command of the situ' ation.
