That float in dreamy fragrance Ger me.
Her cigC-cttel
Like ViJlets wet
With dew her eyes are sweet and earnest.
Her heart Is kind.
Her thoughts refined.
Her principles are Of the sternest.
Her cigarette.
If l can get
Some quaint Old poem. song or story,
Some time-wOrn Screed,
We smoke and read,
And she is simply in her glory.
Her cigarcuel
And yet-ah. yet,
SHE quite ignores my sad position.
She smokes with me,
And lets me be
Bon camarade on this hard condition.
Her cigarette!
If dared fret,
Or show her deeper depths Of passion,
She'd calmly raise
Her tranquil gaze
And freeze me out in friendly fashion.
Her cigarette,
And so. YOU bet,
I'm not reheGrsing terms to plead IN;
My heart may ache,
But won take

The sixth volume of Alden's Mani fold Cyclopedia extends from Bravo to Calville, it's 835 nicely printed pages in- cluding l20 illustrations. Along with it's manifold number of words and top ics treated briefly, there are many ex. tended articles, as for instance, Brazil seven pages; Breach loading Guns eleven pages; Bridge, eleven pages: British Museum, ten pages; Brooklyn, five pages; Budhism, fifteen pages; and California, sixteen pages. The CyclO- pedia we'll deserves the enthusiastic commendation it is receiving from all sides; it is certainty THE Cyclopedia for popular use. Rev. Dr. Wright of Milwaukee evidently voices the thought of many when he says: II may in all truth and soberness quote it's first wort as expressive of my sentim s in re- gard to your wonderful woc its com prehensiveness, it's eheapness, etc. Bravo, yea, Bravissimol' Its sm all handy volume, contrasting so greatly with the usual bulky, unwie;dy volumes adopted by publishers of Cyclopedias is a very pleasant characteristic, and undoubtedly adds greatly to the use fulness of the work, as stated by Dr Nasty of Indianapolis, who says: ''l have the American Cyclopedia, bu reference is made tue Manifold so fal as have it, ten times to once the for mer. It is a marvel of compactnesi and completeness. The publishe sends specimen pages free to any ap plicapt. or specimen volumes whicl may be returned if not wanted, for 6' cents for cloth binding, 75 cents fo half morocco, postpaid; the bette binding is particularly commended JOHN B.

TIE ring has employed Bro. McRa- ven, formerly of the Harrisburg Linch- Pin, and several other unsuccessful newspapers, to edit their paper-The New Era, in this city. MT. McRaven may be earnest in his expressed con victions, but there are cranks in all professions, and We presume we do not go wide of the mark when we say that the expressions of the New Era are those of cranky citizens. There are but two political parties in this coun- try, they are known as republicans and the other, the grand old democratic
 The latter is composed of those who indorse the present administration and the principles laid down by Jefferson, Jackson, and others of this stripe.
 The independent democratic party
 the union labor party, and all other SO called parties are only made up of dissenters and grumblers, and will onl, continue short time. They are unsafe, McRaven is the champion of these par ties t?l in this county at present. w predict that he will not stay long, and ii the interest of the people, we advise them to be very careful hcw they pa, in advance for new or campaign news

- V ~ WARNING.

The election of Cleveland and Thur man in November will be no walk over :" as many believe. Their nomina- tion by exclamation will have a ten dency to make the party sit idly by win folded hands, glllled into fancied secu- rity by the talk of over zealous papers and men, while the trlrky g. o. p lay their traps in the dark to catch the un- wary. Nothing in the way of money and workers will be spared by the re- pubIicans to undo that .'long-felt want honest government, under which ws are now prospering. Although the re- publieans are apparently at sea in re- gard to candidates, they have much good and seryiceable timber from which to select their standard bearers. They are moving slowly, but with certainty of presenting men whom it will be all honor to defeat.
 The question of the Vice Presidency this coming election is of more impoI- tance than at any period of the history of our country. At the present the sem ate stands thirty-nine republicans to thirty-seyen democrats. The terms of twenty-six of these expire March 4th, equally divided between the two par- ties. Both parties claim probable iu- crease, but the outlook is In favor of a tie in the senate. which gives tic Vice. President the casting vote. Thes6 facts should stimulate the democracy to renewed yigor. and work as they never worked before. Don't wait un- til you hear Il told you so,r but take hold at once. Many questions will be sprung to lure the people from the ranks of democracy, but remember ths only issue is Cleveland aud Reform vs. so-called protection. So again we
 warn the people that it will be no

WE have given and will continue to give considerable of our space to the re- production of the sentiments of the people as expressed through the col umns of the press of the First di strict in regard to the fitness of Hon. l.. P. Featherston, of this county, for the high position of congressman. He has given very little, if any, satisfaction to the people, as a pnblic servant. He has no particular record and is not con sidered as extraordinarily bright. True he is a good citizen, the same as YOU and I, but there are thousands Of such in the district, and as the position is one of great importance and honor we believe it should be given to men who have more ability and experience and who have record to place before the people. Can any one give a plaus ible or an undisputable reason why IL F. Featherston should be thus honored Will he reflect any dignity upon this people? Can he accomplish anything to our interest against men who have spent their lives in the study of politi cal economy? Will he have any inhu ence? Is he the peer of any man now 1T congress, many of whom will be re elected? These are questions of great importance to the people, and We art quite satisfied the answer is NOl

As rule the salary of public ser want is insufficient to pay the neces- sary and very numerous expenses of life in the city. It has been very forci- bly, demonstrated in our gubernatorial race just ended that the office was not sought for the emoluments, but sole- ly for the honor. Men whom the peo- pie have watched for years in their ad- vancement and who are known to be deeply interested in the public well fare, and who have shown their ability, their liberality, their earnestness, their honesty, and their patriotism in an every day sacrifice for the good of their party and the people, are pre-eminent- ly those to whom the masses should give their suffrage. The duties of our congressman are numer ous and impor- tant, and it requires brains and mon- ey to carry them out successfully to our interest. The salary is small 5000. The question arises very forcibly, has l.. F. Featherston either means or abil- ity to fill the position? Think of it, and size him up.

THERE has not been a free ballot and fair count for the last ten years in the counties of Pulaski, Prairie, St. Francis, Lee, Phillips. Craighead, and Woodruff. We learn this from parties who are in position to know. Now is il. any wonder that the laboring people rise up Tn their might and demand rec ognition of the bosses. We say give us a fair count and free ballot all over Ar kansas, if it has to be done at the points of bayonets.-White County Wheel.
 Will the editor of the Wheel please let us know the name of his informant as to St, Francis county. Such an as- sertion bears falsehood upon its face and does the people of St. Francis coun- ty, as we'll as the state of Arkansas an injustice, the effects of which. it takes a great deal of time to eradicate. To admit or suppose that the above is truth, reflects dishonor upon the officers who have been elected during that time. and insults the intelligence of the State. Again, to even say such thing brands the leaders of your independent movement as the worst kind of politi cal thieves. You have made a mistake haven't you?

R. J. WILLIAMSON, Prof. Stuart, V. E. Izard. r. H. Evans and J. B. Hodges returned from little Rock Sunday morn- ing. As none of them went back. and the county convention passed a resolu- ton prohibiting the use of proxies. we presume St. Francis county is without . representation in the State conven- tion. What does Paul Cobb and Gov. Hughes friends think of this.-New Era.
 "Where ignorance is bliss, lis folly" etc. As you had nothing to do with the convention, in fact were not then a resident of this county, and don't be- long to our party, it seems to us you would show better taste by holding your peace upon such points. It is none of your business. Paul Cobb's and Gov. Hughes friends are perfectly sat isfed with the result. Paul has the nomination and Gov. Hughes is the strongest man in the State of Arkan- sas

Wonder how much 1t cost the ma chine politicians to INDUCE Barrett to consent to sacrifice himself pro bono publico, as republican candidate ter congress?"- ?"-Featherston' New Era.
 As you belong to the machine kind you ought to know. As we understand the matter, Barrett is disgusted wheeler, and he sees no reason why he is not entitled to the same privilege (running for congressl that Feather ston is. It is a parallel case, except Barrett prefers to get the endorsement of the people while Featherston gets that of a few wire pullers who assem- bled, as was thought, for an entirely different purpose. Featherston's in dorsement by that convention did not voice. by any means, the sentiments ol the masses. The delegates went there upon their own motion; uninstructed as far as he was concerned. Of course there is no chance for Barrett to be elected, neither is there any chance foi Featherston. Judge Cate will be the next representative from the First con gressional district.

AFTER Barrett made his speech Sat- urday, Fitzpatrick, who Is said to be pledged to Featherston, arose and read a letter from the former home of Bar rett, written by the half brother of w. H. Coffey, in which he (Barrett) is se- verely denounced. It seems to us that this matter places Judge Coffey and Clerk Fitzpatick in most peculiar at- titude, both working in the same har- ness. Will the Judge, especially, tell the people why he is so much interested in the character of Mir. Barrett.

DEMOCRATIC STATE PLATFORM.

Tho democratic party of the state of Arkansas, by its representatives in convention assembled, hereby reRcws it's allegiance to the demo- cratic party of the United Stat es and its firm belief in and fidelity to its time-honored principles, to- gether with the following specific declarations.
 First-We congratulate the dem ocratic party and the people upon the absolute success of the admln- islration of President Cleveland, under whose wise and patriotic policy the public debt has been so largely diminished; so vast an area of the public lands, which had been squandcred by the republican par ty upon corporations, recovered to the people; the pension list so greatly enlarged upon a just and equitable basis of merit, and not as reward for partisan services; the mail service so largely extended at a diminished expense; the de- partment of justice made such in fact and not an instrument of in' qulsition and oppression; the public service purified and made efficient; the honor of the nation maintained at home and abroad; the false and slanderous idea which has been consistently instilled into the minds of large element of the citizenship of the southern states, that democratic supremacy meant their re-enslavemcnt, utterly re- futed, and the personal liberty oi all classes of society extended and secured upon constitutional ba- sis.
 Second-Be;ng fully impressed With the urgent necessity for prompt relief of the people from the burdens of an indirect taxa ton far exceeding tho necessities of the government honestly and economically administered, we give the heartiest endorsement to the bold, manly and statesman-like m essage of President Cleveland, Communicated to congress at the beginning of its present session, and commend the majority report of the committee on ways and means, known as "the Mills bill, as proper move in the direction of this much needed relief.
 Thlrd-Believing that ian m dlssoluble union of indestructible states" can be maintained only by a strlct adherence to the constitu- ton, we are unalterably opposed 10 any interference Tn local or state affairs by the federal government through any of its departments.

BEcAUsE a principle of democracy has, perhaps, been violated in the past, is that any excuse for men, who claim to be true democrats, seeking office un- der the name of independent demo- cratsg All who have the welfare of the people at heart are slow to anger and slow to break away from the masses and use the influence, gained during their allegiance, to destroy their party It is plainly a case of sellishness. We for one, are willing to abide by the will of the majority in all political matters of which we have knowledge.

DEMOCRACY, in itself. is as pure as the new born babe. To desert the principles of democracy, because your neighbor has polluted them, shows a most deplorable state of ignorance, and dissatisfaction. It also seems that one is anxious for an excuse. |
