 GROVER CLEVELAND, with his match
 less record and his brilliant promise, stands before the country as the choice of the democratic party for it's highest honor. He is no longer an untried man.
 For more than three years he has guided the national policy firmly, skill fully and safely. He has been equal to every demand. Assuming control of n government whose machinery was ope- rated by a hundred thousand hostile subordinates, he managed it. all inex- perienced as he was, with the easy mas terv of a veteran. Never once did he fail to rise to the needs of his place. The men who had expected to control him found him a leader. There was no power behind the throne. Cleveland was President and the administration was his own. Before last December Cleveland proved himself good Pres ident !; at that time he proved himself a great one.
 By one splendid stroke of courage and statesmanship he lifted his party out of it's bog of timid irresolution drove the tariff-fattened monopolies' from the insolent aggressive to the alarmed defensive, awakened the peo- pie to the infamies they had been pa tiently enduring for quarter of cen tury, and marked the lines of the con- ing campaign beyond the power of shifty politicians to change.

Col, Eagles Mortgages.

In the line of policy pursued by those able statesmen who are endeavoIing to turn voters away from the democratic nominees by misrepresentations, some of the most energetic have been and are still telling it all over the country that though Col. Eagle is farmer, he IS nothing but grasping landlord, who expresses his tenants by means of the anaconda mortgage. Yesterday morn ing Gazette representative, who had heard of these things from several parts of the State, asked Col. Eagle if the statements were true.
 He replied in his usual straightfor- ward and frank manner, "l Will tell you all about my mortgages. never take a mortgage on anything except where 1 furnish man with mules or horses to make a crop with, take a mortgage on the animal to secure It. furnish my tenants with supplies, but have never yet taken a mortgage on the mans crop or property to secure the payment. 1 have store on my plan tstion for the sole convenience or my men. for furnish them with supplies cheaper than they can get them in Lo- noke, and keep the store so asto allow them to save time it would take to go eight or nine miles and back to get the supplies. have and still do refuse to furnish my neighbors on credit. except my brother-in-law because tell them my store is for the convenience Of my tenants. i have never Jet taken a mortgage on a horse, mule, COW, hog, dog, or any other piece of property that has been brought on my place, with one exception of horse, which l gave back to an old man and he still owns it. l want every man who comes on my farm to leave it with as much or more pro pelty than hs had when he came on It; Another fact is that have never In al, my life closed q man out under a mort gage, or taken his property.-Gazette.

THE TICKET,

THE TINES has the distinguished pleasure to place under the head of Democratic Ticket this week the gentlemen who have been chosen as our standard bearers in this county and by so doing completes the ticket rom President down to constable. We desire to call your attention to this ticket. Take each candidate separate. ly. There is not a spot upon their re- cords. Quite number of them have never before asked the suffrages of this people, and do it now only from the fact that they have been called upon by the people to take up their flag and pear It to victory against al enemy which comes, not in it's own shape. but like the wolf in sheeps' clothing. en. deavorlng to steal the reins of govern. ment from the democratic party. We consider 1t as good ticket as has ever been placed before this people. It is made up from every part of the county There are no political ringsters on it. and their honesty and uprightness is beyond question. They are pre-emi- nently qualified for the positions to which they aspire, and will meet their opponents upon the stump and in a fair division of time discuss their differ ences before the people, in order that the voters may vote intelligently. They are honest in their convictions, and it Will be but just reward for their pa- triotism to elect them in September. We ask for them an unbiased consid- eration.

PALEsTINE TIMES,


 The democrats of Palestine ara getting warmed up. and are going to make bold fight for the demo cratic ticket put out last Saturday They are we'll pleased with the ticket. and think it will win.
 It is time that every white man in St. Francis county should go to work for the democratic party the party that has made the coun- ,y what it is to-day. White men with families to raise should put their shoulders and full strength to the wheel and defeat the repnhli- can ticket. They should think of the future. Should the colored re- putlIcans get control of tho county our public schools will do us no good, and our families will be in constant danger. Voters should stop and think. Some of our past leaders, men who have received everything they ever asked from the democratic party, for the sake of office are trying 10 help the re- publlcans into power. They seem to have forgotten everything but office. Office they want and office they must have, regardless of the future. Democrats all over the country should go to work in earnest and show these once hon. ored leaders that they will not stand such treatment. Ii is Q duty we owe 10 our families that there be no idlers In cur ranks. We will organ'ze democratic club Thurs day night.
The Forrest City times., 1888-08-11

ANY man may assert that he is a democrat, but if he allow his name to go upon the republican ticket in a ne- gro paper, works in direct opposition to the democratic party, and asks the sup port of the republicans for office, re- fuses to affiliate with the democrats and aid them to defeat the republicans, and in effect and to all appearances is aiding and in secret, endorsing negroes for four of our county offices, then we say such man is no democrat. Such course is in direct opposition to all democratic principles and usages, and the voters of St. Francis county will so declare at the pOlls in September. Such man may not be an avowed republi- can. He may call himself what name he please. That course is but the first step, and the next and last will make him in full sympathy with the radicals. It has been the case with all precedents. If you give TIE TINES credit for hon. esty of purpose and will think of these matters with unprejudiced minds, you can but admit the truth of the foregO- ing. Is not the course of our present officials in line with just such descrip- tionp
