Tnk Immigration Convention whieh was called by Gov. Hughes, and which convened iu the City Of Liitle Rock oa the 3ist inst. wss the most Important meeting of the kind ever held in the state. it wSs com posed of over tso hanjfed delegates coming from all parts Of the State. In She appointment of delegates, DO part of the State was overlooked. and DO interest was forgotten. The com mlttee on credentials whs latitadi. noas enough Co allow a.l delegates seats in the convention, whether they were appointed under the par- view of the governors proclsma- tion, or shetbeg appointed, by local imm grafton societies. There are such socteties in the State, and they were al sell represented. It was a body of intelligent repre- sentative men, al of whom have the best interests of the state at heart. Under the invitation of the Gov eruor, a number of railroad officials were present ready to lend a helping hand. There vas but one thing to be considered and one thing to be done The development Of the State, and Co devise means to accomplish that end. All sere,agreed that Arksn sas 8 q great state, with varied a1d vast resources. All were agreed, too. that these resources, h0seveT rich and abundant, cannot be deyel- oped without population. There must be population to settle up our vacant lands and tFansmute them from their crude state to the produc- Ing state. The agricultural, timber, and mineral resources Of the state all need population to develop them. They cannot be developed to the ad vantage of the State sithout populS ton. And Co populate the state, the convention was of one mind, and one thought, and that was, that an immigration bureau Is the best, quickest and surest means of doing it. And SO it was done. IL sill ey- idently result to great good The convention itself VIII most certainly result in much good Co the State. Sectionalism was forgotten, and all parts of the state, wilh al their Ia. terests were brought together and considered as one. We expect good to follow.

WHILE in Little Rock attending the Immigration Convention we had the pleasure of attending the Farm
 CTS Association, and were also hon ored with a seat in that body as a representative from Pope county. While this Association IS not what it ought to be, perhaps, it is long step in the right direction. It oc- CUTS to us that the farmers need . State association, one that would have for it's sole object the improve ment Of agriculture and the better
 ment of the farmers condition. Such an association, we'll represent ed, would be very beneficial to the farmers. In the association at LIt. tie Rock last week were read several papers that are of vital importance to the farming interests of the State. Col. Fishbaek read psper on grass  es, a discussion followed on grasses and hay making that was not only amusing, but highly instructive.
 Several farmers told the association how to cure hay with a bright fresh color, so that it would never mildew. This is valuable information as the purest and best food is desirable, Col. Feb Ward read valuable paper on cooperation. If his theory can
 be rendered practicable and carried out in common principles, and busi- ness principles, and business men say it can, it will prove lasting benefit to all the cotton growers of the South. We think good will re. suit from the association. There
 seemed to be general regret that the

ON the night of the 2nd inst, Col. W. Nj. Fishbsck of Fort Smith, under lnyltation of number Of our citizens, delivered an address in the court house on Democracy. At an early hour large audience assem
 bied to hear the distinguished gem tleman discuss the science of poll
 tics from a democratic standpoint The string band was in readiness, and when Mir. Fishback entered the hall the band dlscoursed enchanting music while he walked to the stand. The address was not the low, Iant ing, abusing, prating kind, but was throughout dignifed, logical, sci
 entific exposition Of democratic prin ciples. He showed from the history of nations the gradual growth and development of the democratic eie
 ment in governments, beautifully it. frustrating the irdlspensibleness oi the democratic doctrine Tn the just administration of all governments. He demonstrated clearly that labor unions, and all similar parties are entirely powerless to restore and maintain good government IL was a splendid discussion of democracy and it made splendid impression.

CoL. CIcndenen of F. smith made a remark before committee of the delegates Co the immigration con vention in Little Rock that should impress every one interested in pop ulating tbe state. This remark was that i've should give special atten- tion to settling up the country by farmers. What we most need is the development Of our agricultural rc. sources. These developed and built up, the towns would naturally grow. When the farming interests of the country begin to flourish and show signs of prosperity, merchants, laS- yers, doctors, preachers and school teachers will come in for their part. There was not a truer thing said iu the convention. We have seen towns built up beyond tbeir capac. fly and the result is, their streets are dotted here and there, in a short time, with vacant houses. Let us give special attention to the rural districts.

ARKANSAS EDITORS.
Their Opinion on Various Topics.

Ozark Democrat: We have no unkind comments for reformers, but it is unfortunate for the causes they represent that they insist that ''come out ism" and the organization of new parties and new churches are the only means to accomplish their objects. The cry of tue indiscreet farmer is "We must have new par ty." So says the injudicious prohi bitionist. And then the over zeal ous religious reformer comes along and says, "All you good people come ont of the rotten churches and or ganize a holier oner, We believe it would be caster to make the pres ent parties and churches better than to organize new ones.
 Little Rock Democrat: The Dem ocrat has said it something like a thousand times, but this seems 3 proper occasion to repeat 1t: Good public schools, good roads anG ! bridges, and other necessary public improvements form about the best inducements to immigrants. Peo' pie who are worth anything to a country, in making s change of hom- es, always inquire about such things.
 Little Rock Press: The colored l people of Arkansas own S6.00O.0OO worth o, real estate, and to this they are annually adding more. An ex odus is one of the things they least think of, unless to oppose it.
 Fayetteville Democrat: Scratch northern politician who fayors the Blair bill and you will find "pro' teetionist for surplus only"
 Little Rock Press: The old fash ion way of developing a state was tc sit down snd wait for capital and immigration and let it develop 1t self. The new way is to send out after both and bring them in. Ar kansas will try the new plan, since that IS the sort that develops.
