Frederico Jiron, the murderer of the poor boy Garcia, on the Little Colorado river last December, is in custody in So- corro county, New Mexico. The wretch ed murderer who took the life of a boy -a fellow traveller on the road from Hol- brook to Concho who had befriended him-for a few dollars, and left his body uuburied on the frozen bank of the Col or&do, has added another to the roll Of his victims. Last week, at Carthage, New Mexico, in broil, he stabbed one Chavez, lis cousin, i'll the jugular vein and killed him. Frederico received a wound from a knife, the extent of which we have not learned. It has been 10 secret in this section as to tine where abouts of Jiron, and why he was not ar rested is q seeming mystery to some, al though we'll known to many. When the body of Garcia was found last summer, and indisputable proof thereby furnish ed of the damnablc guilt of the before suspected murderer, the Sheriff of this county was armed with a acquisition from the Governor for his arrest, he be- ing then at Albuquerque, New Mexioe. The Executive of that Territory, we are informed, honored the requisition, and why the arrest was not made is past finding out.

When asked to swap Tom McRae for Col. Barker we would ask his friends what "boot" they offer. They tell us that he has served sev- cral terms in the state legislature, and we answer that so far as qualify ing one to represent us in congress Is concerned. that half dozen terms at Little Rock would not be worth as much as a single term in Congress, and as for natural ability, Tom Me Rae is the peer of any man m the state, and the superior of Col.

That Ul Convention.

Saturday. as per appointment, the union labor party held it's alleged congressional convention here.- There were some siX or seven COun- ties represented. principally by proxies sent up or by single dele gates from county. Hon. T. NJ. NorwoOd was chosen as delegate to the National convention, at Gin cinnati. A wrangle was then had as to whether or not a candidate should be nominated for congress, and q resolution introduced to post ponc it until August and to meet at Nashville. Only one delegate op- posed the postponement, and he fi- nally called on Capt. Ansley (not q delegate) for his views on the ques- ton. MT. Ansley favored immedi- ate nomination-sai he was for an aggressive warfare, etc. On motion recess of , hours or more was taken, to consult on matter. After re-assem- bling Capt. Ansley was nominated as the |. l.. candidate for congress from this district.
 The convention was regular farce, and ended as was expected, in the nomination of Capt. Ansley.- Strange how few counties can dlc- dictate candidate for nineteen composing the district.

THE TARIFF.

Keep it before the people: That the tariff is the great issue in Amer ican politics; that the present pro- tective tariff grew out of the neceosi- ties of the war of secession; that 1t was war measure justified by its advocates on that ground that, not withstanding reconstruction is an ac- complished fact, and the South is loyal to the Union, yet this war measure is perpctuatcd with undi- unfinished force; that it embodies q stupendous system of legalized rob-
 bery and oppression, by which the few are enriched and the masses inn poverishcd that it is q carefully de- viSed scheme of infamous class legis- lation. the effect of which is t0 dis criminate in favor of capitalists and corporations and to lew a grievous tax on the labor and poverty of the country; that the nine industrial states of the \. E.. the principal states benefited hy it. own more than half the wealth of the country, while they represent only one fourth of the population; that these nine states own nearly all the railroads, and own and control the bulk of the wealthy corporations that they hold mortgages on at least one third of the farms in the x. w., and own nearly all the railroads. and large proportion of the bank capital in that section. as well as in the South that. bv virtue of this enormous monetary power. they have acquired a tremendous and alarming innu- encc in the Hobbies and halls of con- gross. threatening to shape the whole policy of the government. so as to favor their iniquitous designs; that the protective tariff is the fruitful source of strikes riots and the wide spread disaffection among the labor ing classes that it tends t0 foster socialism. communism and anar- chiSm, and all the vile brood of evils which flow from unjust and unequal legislation and that the patience and forbearanCe of the people under those burdensome expressions and exactions is at once mysterious and ineXplicable Perhaps their increas- ed devotion to the Union of their fathers, for the maintenance of which the scheme of protection was adopt ed, may particularly explain the an omaly; but there is no doubt that ig- norancc of the true theory and MO- DIS orERANDI of the protective tar if furnishes the most plausible solu- ton.
 The masses of the people, in the nine industrial states, as we'll as the others, however, are beginning to understand that the consumer pays the taxes, that protection means dis elimination, that it involves class legislation, and that its legitimate outcome k to make the rich richer and the poor poorer; and they will soon rise in their might and demand a radical revision of the whole

In speaking ot Col>. (. NJ. Nor wood, and W. H. Terry, of this county. |. l.. nominees for Cover nor and Secretary of State. the Texsrkana Independent says:
 The Independent knows both gen tlemen we'll, and knows them to be good men-men of worth, and per chance fitted for the positions to which they aspire, and would not for the world say an unkind word against them. But they are on a "cool trail" and having d high per sonal regard for them, the lndepen- dent advises them to go slow, and remember that times are hard and money scarce, and we suggest they should not put up too much spondu- licks in their efforts to obtain that which they certainly have no hope of securing. Senator Norwood is good stump speaker and having read our paper for a number of years is well posted oh Arkansas politics and the past rascality of the "bosses" hence. we may expect to hear Rome howl. However, we will whisper in his ear. that now the state of affairs do not exist as existed in the days of Churchill and the other "Wah hOrs- es" that raided on the State treasury, In fact the present set of officers are good fellows and have filled the duties of their offices with credit to themselves and to the State. and with one or two exceptions, there should be no objection to their rec lection. However, it is not our pur- pose to say more, and if the union la bor party had votes enough it would do itself no dishonor by electing Charlie Norwood and George Terry to the positions for which they have been nominated. But as they have no ghost of a show whatever for election their candidacy will only bring about financial disaster to them selves. They are indentilied too strongly with the Anslcy-Rube Carl Lee class of politicians to create much of 2 ripple in Arkansas poll. ties
