Correspondence of the DEMOCRAT.


 It is hoped that the temperance people will not forget their primer ples in the coming election. In ev- cry election there is more or less q contest of principle, 8 contest be- tween right and wrong, and every one will agree that the right ought to prevail because it is right. Pro hibition is evidently right PER SEE, is all the time gaining ground, becom ing deeper rooted in the hearts and minds of the people and will ulti. mately prevail. The idea that the prohibition doctrine is undemocratic is rapidly giving away before the mighty sweep of intelligence now pervading the country. No intelli gent man with clear idea of pollti. cal tendency, capable of comparing the history of governments, and diff. fertiating the influence of ideas, s,mor- al developments, and characteristics of civilization upon politics, will for 8 moment claim that democrat can not be an enthusiastic prohibitionist. So in the coming election we should look we'll to our temperance princi- ples. We should be very scrupulous indeed, about voting for whisky men either drinkers or advocates.
 Respectfully, H. B. MILNER.

STRUCK IT RICH.

COI. J. us hOuSCOn f1lUS Anc Lou"
 isiana Lottery for $5.OOO.
 As stated yesterday Col. D.J.Hons- ton, one of our most highly respect ed citizens, was the lncky holder Of one twentieth of ticket 7l,678 that drew the second capital prize in The Louisiana State Lottery this month. The day thst Col. Houston found himself made comparatively rich he left the Valley on an important bus mess mission and has just returned.
 Yesterday afternoon Sentinel re. porter had the following interview with the Colonel shortly after retur- ming from Little Rock:
 "I heard you were the fortunate holder of one twentieth of ticket IT, 67S that drew $l00,000 in the June drawing of The Louisiana State Lot. tery2"
 "A word explanatory. When I deposited the ticket for collection with the cashier of the Hot Springs Valley bank of this city, Mir. Rapley, especially cautioned against pub licity of tue matter as l deprecated an ostentstious parade of my name therewith in print Not that from an exemplary standpoint attached even the suspicion of moral crimin' ality to the act but the notoriety it would give me, would be in the high est degree offensive to me. It Is due to the officers of the Valley bank to state that the affair leaked out in New Orlssns, such IS the systematic order of the institution, it is almost impossible for the holder of ticket to escape recognition. The ticket was promptly forwarded, the return ($5, ,000) was received without any delay whstever, and placed to my credit n the Hot Springs Valley bank of this city"
 "ls this your first wInr
 q hsye regularly invested small amounts for several years, winning at different times, sums ranging from | $5 to $500, some of which have been cashed by the Hot Springs Valley bank. In examination of my book, which I keep in this business. l find myself ahead on the May draw ing over the duration mentioned $500. I drew s prize In the May drawing which was cashed on pres. entatlon to the Valley bank. It is quite unnecessary for me to state that have the most absolute faith in the spotless honor of Gems. Beau regard and Early. as we'll as profound admiration for them personally, and that my success has in no manner enhanced an opinion that alread, reached the confines of respect snt confidence. l have reluctantly con sented to this Interview, you may state but as the affair has assumed significance, have struck my color and yielded to this reportal crucifir ion."-Hot Springs Ark Sentinel .

Rev. w. c. Wheat.

The following complimentary mo- tices of the new pastor Of the Cumber- land Presbyterian church are taken from the Beebe papers:
 Bsebe Hub: Rev. W. c. Wheat, for the past two years the pastor of the c. F. church at this place left this week to take charge of . work at Russsllville. It is with sincere regret that we lose SO valuable a member of our social and TO- ligious circles. He carries with him the prayers of his church here and the good will of ali our people.
 Becbe Argus: Rev. W. C.. Wheat has accepted the pastorate of the c. F. Church at Russeilville, and took his de- parture tor that place last Saturday morning. Our people regret very much to part with him, and he has their best wishes for success in his new field of labor.

MT. Wharton Again.

The readers of the DEMOCRAT are pretty familiar with the Wharton con- troyersy as it stands, but little sun. mary of the main features will do no harm. We published speech deliver ed by MT. Wharton reported to us by Messrs. Erwin, and Strickland. Wharton denied the correctness Of the report over his signature. We publish ed the statements of Erwin, Strickland Hart, Adams, Sims, and Gray support ed by affidavits that the speech was correct in sum and substance as far as it went. but some things Wharton said we did not get. A certificate was pub lished showing that Berry Guest had said that the speech was in the main correct. Other parties have since said that they were willing to admit that part of the speech as published was correct as the following certificate will show:
 This is to certify that we were pres ent at meeting of the Russellville col- ored wheel on the night of July 18th and heard - Hunter, president of the wheel, and Mir. Douthitt admit that in sentiment parts of the speech reported to have been delivered by Mir. Wharton two-thirds of it, sad Mir. Douthitt, was correct, but that the language WAS not his. They also said that the obligation was incorrectly reported wherein It bound the members to support the un- ion labor ticket. RopT. CHAsTKEH.

 B. F. JoBE. In this connection tine following note written July 18th will be interesting: To the Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 It appears you are prone to mlsrep- resent me. My denial was absolutely true. have not changed it nor admit. ted anything to the contrary nor do l believe others have done so.
 J. T. WHARTON. Now, there IS a diversity Of opinion here. Three have testified that the speech as published, including the ob- | ligatIon. Is true, four say that accord- ing to their recollection 1t Is in sum and substance correct, two say that they will admit that part of it was true | in continent but the language was nol the same used by the speaker. Mir Wharton says My denial was absol utely true." Here we have seven wit nesses against ono. If he can stand the attitude he is placed in we surely | can.

 I learn that some one is circulating the report that should have said that If the Wheel would take one man off their ticket and put another man on I would support their ticket. l want to say emphatically that It isa base falsehood. I say first, last and all the time l am going to support the demo cratic ticket. pronounce the party who put out the report liar and . coward and think am able to "kiv- CT the ground stand on."
