Prof. H. A. Mott, u s. Government Chemist,
after examining officially the principal baking
powders of the country, reported:
''The ROYAL Baking Powder is absolutely pure,
for have so found it in many tests made both
for that company and the United States Govern

Because of the facilities that company have
for obtaining perfectly pure cream of tartar, and
for other reasons dependent upon the proper

powder offered to the public.

DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE FOR GOVERN
OR OF ARKANSAS.

James P. Eagle is largely indebted
for his nomination to the pluck, tact
and the tireless efforts, before and
during the convention, of his wife.
Mrs. Eagle is Kentucky woman,
possessing personal beauty and ac-
complishments. She was married to
Mr.. Eagle some six years ago, when
he was forty-six. Ever since his
political star has been in the ascend
ant. His wife is well read in politics,
and indefatigable in pushing her
husbands fortunes. He is farmer
was a farmers boy from tender years
to mature manhood. For years he
worked on his fathers place and then
on one of his own.
The candidate for governor of Arkan-
sas was born in Maury county, Ten
nessee, in 1887. He removed to Ar
kansas with his father, Mr.. James
Eagle, and settled in that part of
Pulaski county now known as Lonoke
county. Mr.. Eagle worked his way
up, as we'll as grew up, on his fathers
farm, working on it from sunrise to
sunset for over forty years. But he
always took an interest in politics,
and was something of politician.
When only OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
was deputy sheriff. The war was
breaking out between the North and
the South, young Eagle enlisted as a
private in the Fifth Arkansas. He
subsequently joined the Second Ark.
regiment, mounted infantry, in which
he served until the surrender of Lee
at AppOmattOX court house. He par
ticipated in a score of more battles,
and when he surrendered at James
town, North Carolina, had the rank
of observation-disclosures.
Upon his return home ne found the
houses and fencing on the farm gone.
He went to work to repair his loss
with his own hands. For several
years he followed the pillow, scraped
cotton and performed all kinds offarm
work. In the course of time, by indus
try, economy and good management,
he accumulated competency. Feel
ing need of a better education, he at
tended school in Lonoke for several
months and then went to Mississippi
college, where he remained until, his
health failing him, he was obliged to
return home without having gradu-
ated. Mr.. Eagle continues to be a
hard student.
In 1872 he was elected to the legisla-
| ture, as a democrat, from Prairie and
Arkansas counties. While in that ses.
sion he had the bill creating the new
county of Lonoke passed. He was also
elected member of the state consti'
tutional convention, and was mem.
Der of, and the speaker of the legisla'
| ture of 1885.

THE anarchist who comes to Amer
lea to revolutionize society by bomb
methods brings his wares to wrong
market. Anert, the new develop
ments taking place at Chicago and
the more important and sensational
ones promised; also in the light of the
arrests made and to be made; also in
view of the past history of the Hay
market affair, the American press of
this country will receive with hearty
approval this extract from the lead
ing Bohemian journal of Chicago.
"These ignorant tools of socialism
are taking to bombs and dynamite,
and such: being the case it becomes an
imperative duty to help crush out
every remnant of anarchism. Men of
sound discretion are not apt to manu-
facture bombs, and lunatics belong to
the asylum. We have not the slight
est doubt that Bohemian anarchism
in America will be thing of the past
in short time.n
This is the only remedy. Crush
them out. Free speech cannot be en-
dangered by fire bombs. Let all
speech and all act be free with as
much freedom as at all convenient
with public safety. When the line OF
public safety as passed make it a
danger line, and make quick work
with all who step one foot beyond it.

THE crusade has fairly begun
against contract labor in the United
States, at the east. Trinity church,
New York, is mulcted in a fine of
81 900 for importing a clergyman, and
the court overrules the demurrer en-
tered. The contractor at the Austin
state house imports hundreds of me-
chanics to fill the places of the labor
his stinginess crowds out, and the
Texas attorney general had neither
the sense of duty or regard to law nee
essary to enter suit against said con-
tractor. Anything that downs home
labor goes in an overwhelmingly
democratic state.

Does Liverpool Fix Wheat Prices ?
American Miller. II.

American Miller. 1i
No one, we think, will seriously
dispute the pre-eminence OLIVER
pool as the prlce,maker of wheat.
Butte usthere.seems some Confusion
of ideas as to just what sort ola thing
this Price-making is. The price is
made in Liverpool, not because it is
the entrepot Of a vast population
who must subsist on importedwheat.
The price is not based on the within
Of Liverpool dealers, Two factors
and two alone enter into the problem
of price-making in Liverpool; the
needs of the British people and the
probable surplus to be obtainedlfrom
abroad, Liverpool is the open mar,
ket where the producers and consum-
ers meet. If the producers are few,
the necessities of the consumers find
voice in an enhanced price. If the
producers jostle each other to sell,
the consumer finds his advantage in
lower price. Liverpool simply rep
resents the buyer, with this modif-
cation, that it is a buyer who must
purchase somewhere. 1t is folly to
say that Liverpool merchants can put
price on wheat to suit themselves;
for the British people must eat two
bushels of foreign wheat for every
one of homegrown grain. And it is
folly equally great to suppose that
Liverpool can be bulldozed into buy
ing our wheat by forcing the price up
here. That could be done if all wheat
exporting countries would refuse to
ship; but as a matter of fact no in
fiuences are at work in the Liverpool
market except the necessities of the
British people and the eXportable sur
plus of other countries. So the less
wheat we have to export the better
will be the price obtained with nor
malconditions in other wheat-export-
ing countries.

LOTTERY PROSPERITY.
An Instance Which Shows That 1t is We
Hard to Il ear,

An Instance Which Shows That 1t is Very
Hard to Bear.
A very absurd story was recently
told to me respecting the drawing of
the Nice lottery. The first prize
($1OO 0OO) was drawn by working
man OF the great India rubber factory
at Langalee, near Montargis, which
belongs to and is under the direction
OF Mr. Alexander Hutchinson, former.
lY OF Connecticut but for many years
resident of Paris. The lucky prize
winner on coming into possession of
his fortune, Immediately bought him
self q high hat and q handsome over
coat and hired carriage, in which
he and his family went riding around
the country. Up to the present time
the chief acquisition he owes to his
wealth is severe attack of dyspepsia,
for the form of self-indulgence to
which he is inclined is that of good
eating. and he has tried most of the
celebrated dishes at the leading
restaurants of Paris, with the result
aforesaid
But the amusing history connected
with the Nice lottery is told not of
him, but of q less fortunate ticket
holder. who was one of his comrades.
This latter individual was a very
ignorant and stupid fellow, q thorough
type of the uncultivated class of the
French peasantry. He could not read,
but on hearing that his fellow-work-
man had won $780, 600. he contived
to decipher the numbers on his own
ticket which bore, as did all those
that were issued, an announcement of
the grand prize. He became wildly
excited, and rushed about the village
proclaiming, to every body that he,
too, had won 500, 900 francs-it was
on his ticket, "But that is on every
one of the tickets" demonstrated his
friends. He would not listen-evere
body was trying to cheat him, he de-
clared, and he must find out how to
get his prize paid over to him. flake
your ticket to The Mayor of Montar-
gis," was the advice he received,
land he will tell you what to do"
That was all very well, but how was
he to convey his ticket to MontargisP
for, when he first bought it, fearing
that it would get lost he had pasted
it on the door of his cow-house, and
could not contrive to detach it. So,
finally, he took the door off of its
hinges, hoisted it upon his back, and
marched with it into Montargis. dis
lance of some two miles, followed by
jeering crowd, composed of all the
rabble and all the small boys of Lang
lee. The mayor could only give the
poor fellow the same information as
had already been impaired to him by
his comrades, namely, that his ticket
was worthless; and so he was forced
to carry his door all the way back
home again. Paris Letter.

Alcoholic Pickles.

Pick your cucumbers carefully and
