WHO IS WHO!"
Little Rock Republican. l


 esty of purpose of the editor of the Prescott Dispatch in what he teaches and breaches through his columns and on the stump, nor will we resort to the common sub tertuge of those who cannot an swcr an argument, and call him a crank; but we will assert that it must be plain to every man at all correctly verscd in the legitimate run ana tendency Of oar own free institutions and the science of Gov crnment in general, and the very nature and tendency of man in such matters. that the doctrines or hearsics generally taught and pro- mulCatcd through the columns of the Dispatch are only calculated to destr, y all free Constitutional Government, and leave the human race either in q state of political chaos and anarchy or resting un- der absolute dcspotiSn'.
 Jndgc tlIeu of our surprise when we find in the Dispatch such q par agraoh as this. to-wi':
 i Maj. II. B. Holman, of Washing ton. Ark, sends club of thilty-siX. He will be the choice of the indc' pendent voters for Sheriff. See hiS nomination elsewhere in this paper. He has grow, up as it were with and in liemp-tcad com,. ty. Few men have done mor- to advance and develop the resources of old IIcnpstcad than Maj ll"l- man. If is no use for the Demo crats tn throw dirt at .,iin. for the people know him to br one Hemp strad's best citizens. We say this surprises Us, because We have known and now know Maj Holman only aS a Republican: saw him here tue other day as an ac- tive delcgale in the Republican State Convention, and now see his name on the Republican State Committee.
 And also, we find this paragraph in the same issue of tho DiSpatch:
 MT. II. E. Holman, of Washing ton, let's nS know that hr k a can didatc for Sheriff of Hcmpstead county. See his annnuncemcni. He k an oll citiZca ot the county, has done much 70 hnill up tine country. is iirAt cl,ss business man, 4 high toned gentleman, and is drsrrvrdly popular. Seems to uH that those who stand hy MT. All., principal owner of the Ga Zcttr, and MT. Bro..r, chief cdl- tor of iho Gazette, are estopped from abusing Mr. Holman because he i, d Republican.
 And again, this paragraph in re- gard to another prominent Rrpub- lican of the same locality:
 As Judge F M. Thompson has been recommended 10 the iav0ra- blr consideration of all Grccnhack and independent voters of Hemp stead and Nevada counties. by the County Grteuback Convention of Nevada county, we felt it Our duty 10 ho,st his name on our banner and work for his election. In our party, nomination and endorsement hlnd no mans liberty ot franchise. We want every man 10 vote for and from principle. On th:s ground we can all vote for Judge Thompson with hearty good 'wil.
 And this hit in the same direc- tion:
 The Prescott correspondent ruShcs into the arms of two "Blg Rcpunicaus'-.Ailio X Br0wCr -- with bitter abuse of Hon. F. M. Thompson. The Gazette Repnbi. cans pull" Thompson lively for money. Bnt then it makes even "ihe little dog laugh to sec such fnn.n Meantime. the friends of reform know Jalgc Thompson. and also enjoy the fun of ,ing the frightened spoils-huntrrS grow desperate and frantic in view of defeat.
 All of which induces us to in unirr, Who is Who,'
 Whilhcr are we drifting pOliti- cally! Of coursc we do not object to the aid and assistance of the Prescott Dispatch ill the way of votes for true and steadiast Repub- licans: but in receiving anG accept ing this aid, let as not as a party indorsc it's political programme, nor in any way stand committed to ANY of it's entangling and destruc- tive political alliances.
 Rnt it would seem Maj. Holman is doing th:s when he sends np a club of thirty six subscribers to a paper which teaches chaos and an ,..ty i, tho ,1ann ot ChnSt stint ion @
