The resignation of General John
M. Palmer, OF Illinois, from the G.
A. r. organization is certainly a
significant event. He explains that
his action has been due to politics
having crept into the order. Gen.
Palmer served through the war, and
Drawer and better soldier never liv.
ed. He has been no less prominent
in civil life, having been governor
of Illinois and discharged the duties
Of that office with ability aud honor.
He doubtless bases his assertion on
his experience as candidate for
governor during the recent cam
paign.

The latest democratic claim regard
ing the majority in the House is that
there will be l62 democrats and 162
republicans and one independent,
Coleman, of the second Louisiana
district. Then, in this event, the re-
publicans will organize the house.
II but one man stands in the way
and that one an independent, be can
be so easily disposed OF that it will
create merely ripple on the sea Of
politics.

SPIRIT OF THE STATE PRESS.
Comments Clipped from Clever
Contemporaries.

Little Rock Gazette: There will
he a re superintendent of electoral
votes anT. members OF congress
among the states before the next
PREF dental election, according to
t''ae Genus of 1890. The result o:
this will be an increase OF strength
in the west and south at the expense
Of the east.
Little Rock Democrat: just wait
about three years till the brethren Of
the Republican party get all torn
and rent over the tariff question, the
civil service question, "this niger
question" as old Gen. Sherman used
to call it, and worst of all the spoils
question and the return of the "fat"
fried out of the monopolists. 1t will
be condition and not theory that
will then stare them in the face.
Helena World: No more dunning
by postal card. Under recent in.
structions from Postmaster General
Dickinson, anything in the nature
OF an offensive or threatening dun,
apparent upon an envelope, outside
cover or postal card; or conveying
the suggestion that such dun is in
closed, must be excluded as non
mailable.
Little Rock Democrat: The As.
ISOLATED Press hastens TO inform us
that there will be two White Hous.

years of Harrison and Morton"
Mrs. Morton, wife OF the vice pres.
ident-elect, Is very fashionable, ex-
tremely social and will be power
in Washington society, backed as
she will be by fortune of $4,000,
600. The plain Democratic SIMPLE
ity Of the Cleyelands administration
will soon pass away, but it will live

worthy OF the American people.

ing the opinion, that life insurance
policy is no part OF the estate of q
deceased insolvent aud cannot be
attached by creditors. 1t Is held to
be the absolute property OF the ben

Little Rock Gazette: These facts
signify something: California, Tex
as and Ohio, the great wool growing
states, polled democratic gains and
republican losses in the recent cleo
ton. The great manufacturing cen
tres of the east,including Providence,
Norwich, Bridgeport, Worcester,
Lynn, Holyoke end Salem, show even
more decisive democratic gains and
republican losses. But strangely
enough, the farmer went wrong on
the tariff, with the least reason for
| it.
Little Rock Gazette: A series OF
prosecutions have begun in the
courts OF Indiana against the manip-
ulators of elections that promises to
reveal just how the republicans car.

than usual, but they we're handled,

The Road Law.

The Randolph Herald has these
sensible conclusions on the present
road law of Arkansas:
One Of the most unjust and useless
laws on our statute book is the pres
ent road-law. Under It's operation
the laborer who chances to get a
months work may be made TO put in
nine days of that time working some
road, while the landlord, should he
be over age, does no work. Thus
the laborer, with nothing but his
earnings, and who has little or no
interest in the country, pays nine
dollars year road tax, while the land
lord aho derives the benefit (should
he be over age pays nothing. What
interest has trans silent laborers in the
building up OF the country Who is
benefited by good roads (if We had
them)? The whole Of the country
would be benefited by good roads to
be sure, but the man who own two
hundred acres Of land is most GER
tainly more benefited than the labor
er he employs at SIS or even his
neighbor who only has one hundred
acres, and should pay proportionately
for that benefit. The only way we
see for a just division of this burden
is taxation. Many will say that tax
es are already high enough, and 80
they are; but road tax would great
ly reduce the poor mans tax and at
the same time bring about an equal
division. II officers and those whose
duty 1t is TO look after such things,
would do their duty under such a
law, road working by taxation would
bring about a complete revolution IN
the condition Of our public roads, aud
secure 10 the people that benefit for
which the poor man has paid so dear
for 10, these many years, without re-
ceiving it, We have no particular
plan to suggest, but hope that the
next legislature will frame some law
whereby good roads may be secured
and at the same time make those de-
irving the benefit pay proportlonate-
ly for it.
