The goods he offers may be reasonable, but that don't make them cheap or desir- able. They may be unseason- able or unserviceable, or if pos sessing those virtues they may be unpopular, because of color, pattern, or make.

TIE following contains the cold facts. It is to the point, and we recommend it to those who are wandering:
 IT is more important thIs year than 1t has been for the last three years that every democrat stay with the party. This is the year for electing all officers from president down to township con stable. Our congressman should be men who are sound in their views on the tariff and other matters that are of vital importance to the people of the entire country. It is not so bad if per sons go off with side issues in an off year. but at this time We cannot afford it. Arkansas has been democratic by Ia large majority for many years. Faulkner county has been solid, but it is well to watch the enemy. This is not time for any foolishness, but a time when those who would like to see liberty perpetuated and our State go on in its course of rapid progress stand firm to sound business principles. There are but two parties in this government to-day that amount to anything and we must choose between the two. We must serve one or the other. There is no lodging the ques- ton. Every vote cast for a third party by democrat is vote against the democratic party and gives strength to the republicans. Let there he no 'wabhling on the gudgeon.' but let every man in this proud old com mOnWealth who believes that democ- racy is better than republication come out squaTely and vote that way Conway Log Cabin.

THAT the Memphis bridge will be built is now settled thing. Gen. Nettleton to-day telegraphed to Con gressman Phelan that he would accept the charter and gO at once to work. Mr Phelan last night sent the general long dispatch advising this course, saying that it would be impossible for any change to be made in the bill at this session of Congress, and if it became necessary to get relief from any portion of the charter he had bet ter reserve his action for future ses- sion. In this the general acquieseed. as stated above, and consequently Memphians may feel assured of the eventual building of the bridge. Sena tor Berry has received telegram from Forrest City, Ark, signed by James Russell and two others, ind0rsing his amendment putting wagon way on the bridge. Mir.

DR.. William r. Newton. Dairy Com.

DR.. William r. Newton, Dairy Com
missioner of New Jersey, will soon issue
his annual report for the year ending
May 1. In regard to the sale of oleomar-
garine, he says that In 1886 over eighty
per cent. of all the groceries in the State
sold it as butter. The Legislature passed
law requiring all dealers to label the
tubs and TO buy Government license TO
sell it. Six months after the law was
passed there were only 149 dealers who
sold it, and on April of this year there
were only 20. Samples of all the con-
densed milk sold in the State and in New
York and Philadelphia were examined,
and all but two were found to be genuine.
Those two were mixture of skim milk
and sugar, very injurious to the health.
Samples of lard were obtained from all
parts of the State, and all were found to
be adulterated with cottonseed oil aud
acids. A fair grade of honey was found
for sale in the State, but the samples of
Jersey honey sold in the city were all
adulterated with glucose. Little pure
cider vinegar was found, almost all of the
alleged vinegar being mixture of alcohol
and white wine. The cost of obtaining
all this information was $14, 1877 90, and
81, 100 we're received from fines on dealers
