will the county seat be more con-
yeniently located TO the greater num-
Der Of people, but the people are se-
cured by our bond, copy OF which
Is published herewith, against taxa
ton to pay for either court house or
Jail.
1.-THE county seat was now at Rus.
sellville with such court house and
Jail as we propose to erect, would II
be deemed good policy to move IL
back to Dover with tue certainty OF
having to build court house and
jail in the near future, staring us in
the face--would it be deemed advis-
able to move it away from the rail
road and from the center Of business
and population to point ten miles
ont Of the way? If It would not be
advisable under such circumstances
to move the county seat to Dover, is
not that good reason why 1t is adj
visabIe to move il FROM Dover TO
Russellyilie now while the people
are secured against taxation TO build
court house and Jail?
To summarize the following are
offered as among the many reasons
why Russellville should be selected
at the election now pending as the
future county seat OF Pope county:
LIST. Russellville is centrally loca
ted as tn the people aud business Of
the county, being more nearly mid
way between the eastern and western
boundaries Of the county and more
nearly 50 with reference TO the north
| ern and southern portions Of the
county taking into consideration the
number OF people and amount Of
business in the respective parts Of
| the county.
End. II Is accessible TO the people
Of all portions OF the county, being
situated At the crossing Of the prin-
cipal natural and artificial lines Of
travel north and south, cast and
vest, and approachahIe from oil di'
rections without the necessity oil
crossing mountains OF hill ranges.

The question Of removal Of the

The question Of removal OF the
county seat Of any county is one OF
great mportance--is apt to generate,
and is almost always attended with,
more or less Of i'll feeling. This 1t
Is our earnest desire to avoid, and to
this end We desire to present a few
plain reasons Why the county seat Of
Pope county should be removed from
Dover. its present location, and also,
Why 1t should be located at Russell.
vile. and we ask your careful and
calm consideration Of these reasons,
laying aside all passion and prejudice
and looking alone to the greatest
good to the greatest number"
While the county seat cannot be
so located as TO be EQUALLY coNvEN-
lent to all, Its location is a matter Of
EQUAL INTEREST to every one, hence
no particular town or locality has an
ABSOLUTE right to It. The reasons
which cause its location at any Civ
en- point, may In course Of time cease
TO exist, and reasons as strong or
stronger may demand that it be re-
moved to some point more conven
lent 10 the majority Of those having
business in the courts, or in the vari.
Gus county offices. To meet the
public necessities and convenience
in this respect. the law has prescribed
the time and manner Of efiecting a
CHANCE.

that persons from The different
parts Of the county can make
their attendance 1t court serve
them to transact private bust
ness, and frequently save the ex
pense Of q double trip-onc to the
county seat and one to their place
Of trading.
1t has been urged as an objection
TO removing the county seat, that
the people would be taxed to pay
for the property at Dover. This pc
sition is untenable. The question
was raised on the removal Of the
county seat, from Springfield to Lew
|isburg, Conway county, aud the SUI
preme court in the case OF Moses ct
ais, We. Kearney, Clerk (3lst Ark.
reports--page 26l) J, decided that the
law giving pay for property upon
the removal-of county seat had
been repealed, and that the owners
Ut property at the old county seat
we're not entitled to have any tax
levied to pay them for their proper
ty there, although the county seat
was located at Springfield, under the
law which provided for such pay
ment.
We offer the above suggestions,
not from any unkind feelings TO
ward Dover or the people Of Dover,
for whom we entertain great respect
and the kindest Of feelings (for they
are good people). But feeling that
this is not or should not be q ques-
ton as to what 10 best for any one
town or location, but as to what is
best for the majority OF the people
OF the county. It is question Of
benefit to the people and taxpayers
of the county at large and not Of
benefit to any town or locality.
Come out then and vote upon the
question; but before casting your
ballot besure that you take into con
sideration the best interest OF the
people generally, remembering al
ways that the best interest of the
people, that intcrest.swhich secures
the greatest good to the greatest
number includes your own best in
terests.

Correspondence Of the Democrat.
AS one Of the people interested in
my own convenience, and In scrv.
ing what conceive to be the inter Z
ests and convenience Of the great
majority Of the people Of Pope coun-
ty, | wish to state few OF the reas-
ons that had me to advocate a
change Of the county seat from Do
yer to Russellville.
A great majority Of the population
OF Pope county reside in tho south
ern helf Of the county, and large
majority OF the population Of the
northern half OF the county do their
trading on the railroad, and have to
come to 1t anyway.
2nd. Two thirds, If not three
fourths OF the taxable property Of
the county IS in the southern halt,
and the convenience OF the property
which bears the burdens OF govern
ment, ought to be consulted in a
matter of so much Importance as the
location Of the county seat.
3rd. Three fourths, or four fifths
Of the legal business of the county
comes from the southern half
4th. The northern portion Of the
county doing the great bulk OF its
commercial business ON the rail
road could also attend TO its legal
business without any further loss Of
time or trooble. Now, it would
seem. that the southern half OF the
county containing the large MAORI
ty Of the population and paying two
thirds, il not three fourths Of thu
taxes, and furnishing three fourths,
| Ii not four-fifths Of the business,
ought to have voice in the loca-
ton OF the county seat 1t would b.
but simple matter Of right ant
Justice; and especially as the north
ern portion Of the county would be
but little, il any more Inconvenience
ed, because OF their commercial re
lations.
| Now, as Russellville 10 situated
just about midway between the east
ern and western boundaries Of thu
county, on the railroad, IN the sonth
ern half, it would seem to me tina
there could be no argument with I
fright thinking man against th
proposition that Russellvilie is tn
proper place for the location OF tn
county seat.
respectfully submit this TO tn

pie. Respectfully, JUSTICE.
