Hon. J. B. Judkins, in well con-
sidered article published in the
Walnut Ridge Telephone, discusses
the demands which the threatened
labor party proposes to incorporate
into the democratic platform. After
showing conclusively and with great
force that the major portion of the
so-called demands are undemocratiC
and i'll advised, and that they eman'
ate from political sources holding to
principles inimical to the best inter
ests of the masses, he concludes by
calling upon the thoughtful to reflect
upon the great contrast between
democratic and republican rule in
the state and the general government.
He calls attention to the present
administration as embodying true
democratic principles put in practice;
that the democratic party is on the
side of the people in favor of eeono-
my; the reduction of the tariff; the
conservative administration of affairs
respecting the public lands; the
wrestling from railroads and other
monopolies of all unearned land
grants and their restoration to the
pablic domain, and many other meas
ures of reform accomplished or
earnestly projected during three
short years Of pure democratic adj
ministratiOn, and in conclusion Mr..
Judkins sounds, not day too sooA,
the bugle note of warning in the
following language; democrats
ought to remember that republicans
are too well drilled to follow off the
third party movemement, that DEM
ocrats alone must make up the third
party to that extent enhancing the
chances of republican success.

The Jackson county democratic
central committee recommends that
q district convention be held at
Batesville, June 10th, for the pur-
pose of nominating a democratic
candidate for prosecuting attorney
in the third judicial district, and
urges that the democratic party in
each county composing the district
take similar action when the conven-
tions are held next month. This is
the proper course, and we hope the
matter will be discussed in the
township meetings in Sharp county
so the question will not be new
when the delegate convention meets
at Evening Shade on the 26th Of the
next month.

A LESSON IN PHYSIOLOGY.

A pupil in one of the public
schools of the city complied recently
in the following manner with re-
quest to write composition on the
subject OF physiological lecture to
which the school had just listened:
',The human bodyi made up of
the head, the thorax and the abdomen
"The head contains the brains,
when there are any.
The thorax contains the heart and
the lungs.
The abdomen contains the bowels,
of which there are five: A, E, |, .

In 1884, when Mr. cleveland ran
for president he polled in New
York state 27,730 votes more than
he polled when he ran for governor
in 1882, and 6l,5S8 more votes than
Hill polled for governor in 1885 peo-
pie who make memorandum of these
figures will have the truth ready to
refute the lie that Mr.. Cleveland was
weaker in 1884 than Hill in 1885 or
than he was himself when he was
elected governor by plurality of
1872, 2,OOO-Missouri Republican.

The convicts which had been

The convicts which had been
working in the coal mines in johnson
county, have been moved to within
the walls of the penitentiary, by
direction of the board Of penitentias
ry commissioners, composed of Gov.
Hughes, Attorney General Jones
and E. B. Moore, Secretary of State.
This commendable action comes too
late to save several unfortunate lives
and perhaps the political heads of
the three dlgnitaries composing the
board.

The Dardenelle Post and Helena
World, two true blue democratic pa
pers, are opposed to electing any
man governor for the third term.
They are therefore opposed to
Hughes, who is now canvassing the
state for third term. In 1886
Hughes had no opposition in his par
ty, and yet the democratic mel jority
Of two years before was reduced
from $4,000 to $4,000. Should he
be nominated this year it is extreme
ly doubtful if he could be elected.
The people claim that the office
belongs to no man, and they think
that according to the fitness Of
things Hughes should step down into
the trenches and he'll p to elect some
other good democratic. Newport

A MOONLESS MONTH.

The month of February, 1886,
was in one respect, the most remark
able in the worlds history. 1t had
no full moon. January had two full
moons, and so had March but Febru-
ary had none. Do you realize what a
rare thing it was? 1t had not occur
red since the time of Washington,
nor since the discovery of America,
nor since the beginning Of the
Christian era, nor since the creation
of the world. And it will not occur
again, according to the computation
of astronomers, for how long do you
think?-2,5 100000 years. Was not
that truly a wonderful month";

usually the most devotional and in

Los Angeles, DeveIopment.

EDITORS HERALD-Only short time
ago the fair City of the Angels could lay
claim to population Of only few
thousand. In decade of years how as
tonishing is the change! The fen thou
sand has increased to nearly hundred
thousand, and with the increase of popu-
lation the wealth, the prosperity, the in
tellectual and moral requirements and
requirements have kept steady pace.
Schools have been multiplied; churches
everywhere abound. The old settlers
remember when the old adobe church
which now stands in it's pristine splen-
dor, a monument of antiquity, was the
only place of worship within the city
limits. To-day, stately edifices, grand
and imposing monuments of architect
ural skill, dot the streets and with grim
humor bid us visit from time to time the
decrepit form of the parent of the Los
Angeles places of worship. Not only do
the denominational structures attest the
growth and prosperity of our city, but
even still more perhaps the stately
buildings which Charlottesville pioneers
OF the land-are everywhere erecting. A
short time ago we were informed
of the probabilities of the erection
of Catholic Church at BOYLE
Heights. Now the erection of a
new Catholic Church at East Los
Angeles is an assured fact. The Catholic
ladies are making strenuous efforts in
this direction already. The best talent
of the city has been secured, through the
untiring exertions of Baroness Rogniat,
for grand concert to be given at Opera
Hall on Thursday, September 9Th, at 8
o'clock. Were the churches the erection
of which is contemplated in existence,
then. instead of one old adobe building,
the city could boast Of five structures,
more spacious, more airy, more in har-
mony with modern ideas, and doubtless
better adapted to supply the wants of the
many worshippers who wend their way
on Sundays to these places of worship to
pay homage to the Creator. When one
contemplates this wonderful growth in
few years he stands in amazement and
asks himself, What will Los Angeles be
in the near future? We might venture
an answer: Not only will its Catholic
places of worship be increased and null
tiplied, but likewise Catholic and Pro-
testant institutions of every kind. The
Los Angeles of the near future will be
remarkable not only as the second city
OF the Pacific Coast, but will compare
tavorably with the proudest cities of the
East. AN ANGELENo.
