HoN. John Carroll has been app pointed marshal and M. II. Sandells district attorney of the Western dis trict of Arkansas. and Hon. Thomas Fletcher marshal and Hon. Joe House, attorney. for the Eastern dis trict. This ends the long and earn est fight for these places. Much will be the disappointment by the good and true men who got left, but no more than if they had succeeded for then it would have been somebody else disappointed. The officers at Fort Smith have already entered upon their duties. Republicans though they be, their predecessors were nevertheless faithful and hon. est men and officers. Col. Clayton had held the office of attorney for eleven years and no word of suspic- ion against his official integrity had been uttered.

These two dia- bolical crimes, the one following close upon the other and giving a fearful emphasis to the defiance of public sentiment, the laws of the country and the dictates of common humanity, have thrilled the State with horror and aroused feeling of indignation that calls for summary punishment.

THE Arkansas Democrat in it's new quarto shape is much more at tractive, and is an illustration of the business vim and energy to be found in it's management, both in it's edito rial and business departments.

More than $500,000 back taxes are now due, but cannot be collected until tue Legislature pro- vides for the assessment Of the road during those years past. A blll for this purpose passed tue House but failed to get through the Senate of the last General Assembly.

SOMETHING of sensation occurred

SOMETHING of sensation occurred in Morrilton last Friday. It was on the occasion of the County Judges decision on the petition for the pro- hibtion of the sale of liquor in Nor rilton. It was tclegraphed the Ga zette in these words:
 MoRRILroN, ARK, Oct. 30.--County Judge Blankenship rendered his de. cision this evening granting a peti- ton prohibiting the sale Of whisky here next year. Number of legal names on the petition 6Sl. Quite a number of ladies were in the court. room when the decision was an. nounced, and they began to sing Praise God from Whom all Bless ings Flow" by permission of the court, Rev. Mir. Greenhouse led in prayer, after which the ladies grasp ed the judge by the hand as evidence of appreciation.
 In Dardanelle on Saturday follow ing something of sensation occur red also, but of a different sort. IL was in the locality of the calaboose, with ten white men and one negro in it, and no doxology until sometime afterward when the mayor dismiss ed with his usual fines and costs.

KEEP 1T IN MIND that next Tuesday the 10th is the day tor every demo- crat, and every lover of fair and able judiciary to use his ballot to place Hon. B. E. Battle on the su- preme bench. Judge Battles sup port should be as rousing IS If he had the hardest sort of opposition. The privileges of free mans fran cbise should be esteemed ir the light of patriotism, and should be enjoyed for it's promotion. Carelessness in voting is as reprehensible as it is in anything else. Let every citizen turn out next Tuesday and vote for Judge B. B Battle.

SOME one sent us a copy of the New York Sun of Oct. 30, containing a letter of stricture on Pos. master General Villas, hoping, we suppose, 10 have it published. But we ain't that sort of a cat. We will wait un- til we see something to condemn in this democratic administrator in any of the departments, before we lend our columns to an onslaught. As long as Postmaster General Villas runs as smoothly, and keeps as well within the wishes of the people, as he has slnce his going into office, we will be found among the number who delight to throw their hats and hol- low hulrah for Villas and the rest of this administration.

TEN white men and one negro In the Dardanelle calaboose in one day, indicates right lively business-in the calaboose line. Yes, lively business, but we pity the business.

The Railroad sults Again.

I 0 the Editor of The Gazette
 l am truly glad that Col. Dan W. Jones has explained to the public the reason that suit has not been brought to enforce the collection of back taxes due the state from cer- tain railroads.
 During the last session Judge Rose informed me that there was due the state from these railroads over $500,000. 1 at once introduced resolution calling upon the judiciary committee to report a bill to enforce it's collection. The bill was accord ingly reported through its chairman, Mir. Thornburg, and was passed by ihe house, believe. unanimously. It went to the senate, and, being called home by the burning of my block of buildings, 1 did not know what they did with It. It seems it was either not reached or senators were not sufficiently impressed with it's i'm sortance. It is well, therefore, to have Col. Jones explain thu con dition of the affair.
 Perhaps the next senate, when It shall have learned that Arkansas will have give to these roads about $72, ,G00, through their failure to pass the bill will let us have tue needed legislation. Very truly.

IT sounds little odd to hear some of our contemporaries referring to the approaching judicial election with a seeming margin of doubt as to the result, seeing there is no opposition whatever to Judge Battle. But the fact of the business is, they are only sounding the keynote of safety. In action and carelessness furnish many instances of defeat, almost as aston ishing as the defeat of Judge Battle would be, and the history of thous- and incidents might be cited to prove that there is no safety except in be
 ing wide awake and at your post. Many calamities occur in war on account of a sentinel asleep on his post, and no more than have occurred in politics when people felt too con fident of victory. The right thing to do is to be at your post and ready for action if you are neeGed. Besides it is our duty as citizens to give one of our judicial officers such an en- -dorsement at the polls as shall make hlm feel the full weight of wide expression, and give him also the satisfaction arising from such cir cumstance. Let the democracy of Pope especially, do her whole duty. Let's help swell the majority the same as if an opponent was in the arena with an unsheathed swo d. One may be there before election day comes, and especially, if the enemy sees any encouragement by sleepi- ness in our own ranks. All classes and parties can afford to turn out on the llth of Nov, and help swell Judge Battles majority up to the limits of his merit, and make him feel like the voice of the whole peo- pie had participated in his election.

No.no The Dardanelle Post h,

No NO, The Dardanelle Post has not aspersed the christian people of it's own town nor belittled the wo- men. No. It ouly said that the wo- men were irresponsible, religious zealots. It only compared the chris tian people of Dardanelle who were working ACCORDING to LAW to avoid the issue of license in their town to the witch burners and the baptist whippers of the dark ages. It only called them religious zealots and fanatics-thats all Of course this is not aspersion. No, No. Us only fine verbiage, you knew. Of course a man with so fine a moral sense is always conscious of his own rectitude. He can call others igno. rant, fanatic, Zealots, and compare them to baptist whippers and witch burners, etc, for doing what the law says they may do. He can call women irresponsible and couple them with the vilest criminals for simply exercising one of the few privileges which makes them felt in public matters, the simple, just and dear right to petition. He can do all this of course, and yet be guilty of no impropriety, oh, no! The wo
 men can have their home happiness crushed, see their loved ones reeling downwards in dissipation. They can bear three fourths of the suffer
 ings and privations which drunken
 ness costs the country. Christian men can see the peace of their com munity rent and destroyed and the morals and habits of the youth threat ened and ruined, but petition, never! What if the law does say you may. What if the law in this nineteenth century does recognize the women of the land responsible enough to entrust them with the right to peti- tion, if you do it, you are fanatic, religious zealots on plane with witch burners and baptist whippers. So says the Post. Shame on it.

yesterday, after briet illness. He was born in 1926, and educated for soldier in West Point, and served throughout the Mexican war. Upon the outbreak of the late war he was commissioned a major general of vol unteers, and afterward became com mander.in chief. He fought the seven days battles near Richmond, but was compelled to evacuate tue peninsula. Pope having been de feated at the second battle of Bull Run, Gen. Mcclellan reorganized the federal army at Washington, and met and defeated Gen. Lee at Antie- tam. The latter was followed across the Potomac into Virginia, but he was succeeded by Gen. Burnside, and in 1864 resigned from the army and became the democratic candidate for president of the United States, but was defeated by Lincoln. His only public service since the war was as governor of New Jersey. After Cleve- lands election Gen. Mcclellan was offered and declined cabinet posi- tion, and also the Russian mission. A few days before his death he was requested to take place on the civil service commission.
 We have no space this morning to discuss the causes which led to Gen. McClellan's resignation from the army. They were largely political,
 Gen. Mcclellan having committed the partisan crime of adhcring at all times to his democracy.
 The President was first to send
 words of condolence to his afflicted
 widow, which he did in these words "WAsHINGToN. Oct. 29, 1885. "To Mrs. Geo. B. Mcclellan, Orange, NJ.: ''I am shocked by the news of your husbands death and while 1 know how futile are all human efforts to console, must assure you of my
