Correspondence of the DEMOCRAT.


PoTTs STATION, Ark, Oct. 30, 1880.
Health in this part of the county
Is generally good. Mrs. Wick, an
aged lady, died near this place last
Sunday after an illness OF several
months. Mrs. VIM. Ferguson is sui
fering very much from what is sup
posed to be cancer under the skin.
Potts Station has just had quite a
lot of good preaching. The presby-
terry of the A. R. Presbyterian church
convened here on the 23d, with a
full delegation. Rev. j. p. Irven, the
retiring moderator preached an ex
cellent sermon, after which Rev. j..
L. Young was elected moderator for
the ensuing presbytery year. On
the 25th the synod of the A. r. P.
church met here also, and lasted sew
eral days, during which time we had
some most excellent preaching. Rev.
w. w. Orr. of South Carolina, open
ed the synod on the 25th by preach
ing most magnificent sermon very
appropriate to the occasion using for
his text, Luke Is :l5-16.
All the Southern states were well
represented in the synod by intelli
gence which speaks well for the
church and Its future prosperity.
Rev. White, d. D., was here repre-
senting the U. p church of America,
and trying to unite the U. p. and
the A. r. p. churches. He made a
very strong speech In favor of the
union of the two churches.
A good many of the boys went to
Russellville Monday to hear the
Hon. C. r. Breckenridge and Clay
ton speak. The most of them came
back highly enthused for Breckn-
ridge and tariff reform, failing to see
how high tariff can make goods
cheap, as Clayton argues. A.

ONE of the most reckless and
scurriless campaign receptions is the
circular distributed by republicans
in this and other counties in the sec
ond district purporting to show that
Mr.. Breckenridge has been in col
fusion with the sugar and whisky
trusts. In this district where Mr..
Breckenridge is so well known as a
formidable opponent of trusts, mon
opolies, syndicates and all the evils
which have grown out of republican
legislation in this country, such NAL
ignant misrepresentation will not
only be disbelieyed butreact upon the
heads of those who would perpetrate
them and strengthen their intended
victim before the people. 1t is well
known that Mr.. Breckinrldge's place
In Congress is wanted, hence these
INSCRIPTIONS tactics. Let demo
Gratis be induced by such schemes to
redouble their diligence and see to
1t that the "little giant" the gifted
Breckenridge is returned to congress
with an increased majority.
The Russellville Democrat., 1888-11-01

IT has been well said that eternal
GLANCE is the price of liberty"
bis maxim is especially applicable
the present time and to the pres
Il contest. A determined effort
HI be made to break our solid dem
ratio delegation in Congress, and
bit effort is chrystalized in the sec
b district by the nomination OF
bytcn to supplant Breckenridge.
|e scheme should meet with in
brious defeat, and will, if apathy
b carelessness do not take pos
sion of the opponents Of republi'

A New YORK Associated Press
dispatch dated Oct 25th says: Fred
Douglass, the colored orator and pol
itician, who has been on the stump
for Harrison since the beginning of
the campaign and has had unusual
opportunities for guaging the drift
of public sentiment, takes a very
view CT the outcome of
the election, saying the democrats
are going to carry both New York
and Indiana sure. Frederick is right,
and republicanism is going to be
buried out Of sight on Election day.

JOHN NJ. CLAYTON, the republican

Hon. 4. Il. BrecklnrldSe ana Col.
J. M. Clayton, his opponent, address
ed large audience here last Mon
day afternoon. Col. Clayton made
the opening speech and devoted an
hour to the discussion of the tariff
from a republican or pretectionlst
standpoint. His address was as in
genious and argumentatlve as could
well have been made on his side OF
the question, but fell upon the audi
ence as exceedingly stale and un-
profitable, failing to elicit the small
lest ripple of enthusiasm. When Mr..
Breckenridge arose he was greeted
with round after round of applause
and it was some time before he could
proceed. His speech was one of the
most mastery and convincing dis
courses ever heard in this section,
and so thoroughly and completely
demolished the sophistries of his OPP
ponent that he left him not peg to
hang his hopes upon. From the start
it was evident he had the crowd with
him, and as he progressed putting
blow after blow, argument after ar
gument, in support of the democrat
ic doctrine of tariff reduction and
dissipation of the treasury surplus,
as against the monopoly building,
trust producing and syndicate max
ing effects of the present uncalled
for, unfair, aud Ubiquitous burden of
tariff taxation, the enthusiasm knew
no bounds. So simple and clear
were his arguments, so we'll fortified
with facts and figures were his every
statement, that he created profound
impression. There was that clear
ness about his trend of thought, and
consideration about the material
welfare of the masses in his utter
ances that makes him just snch a
speaker as the people will hear glad
ly. 1t is almost impossible to hear
him and not drift into sympathy
with him. He fully understands the
wants, wishes and demands of the
country and the attention of the
whole country is attracted to him as
one of the most intelligent and use
full members in the counsels of the
nation. His record IN Congress am
ply illustrates his principles and
faith put in practice. 1t proves him
to be the friend of labor, and un-
compromising foe Of monopoly and
tariff robbery. 1t makes him the
true representative of the labor ele
ment in this country, aud If that ell
ement is true TO itself and its profes-
sions it will demonstrate the fact by
an expression OF preference on cleo
ton day and his return to his post of
duty in Washington.
