is comparatively new to Americans, but the
habit may grow until We, too, like Queen Vic
toria, shall crave our tea as we take our after
noon drive. The little fashions of the tea-table
are always changing and novelties are contin-
ually appearing in its articles of use or orna-
ment. One Of the new forms for the little sill
yer service is the lotus flower and leaves The
tray is large leaf, the tea pot, sugar bowl,
cream pitcher and cups are all in the
shape Of the lotus blossoms, with inter-
lacing stems for handles, while smaller leaves
form the saucers. This shape is sometimes
found in china also. The small daring tea cup
is the daintiest and prettiest to use on q recep-
ton day, for in making q number Of visits and
being pressed to take tea at several places, the
caller finds this suited to her wants and more
attractive than larger one. The small table
will still be the favored one for the boudoir,
where afternoon tea is such an agreeable &C
compartment to the talk Of intimate friends.
Odd little pieces Of china are eagerly picked
up BY china decorators when the plain can be
found, for every pretty addition to tea table
Is appreciated
EASY TO DECORATE.
Little French figures on different articles
come now for decoration in the Dresden style,
and are not difficult to paint, Is no shading il
necessary. One Is called the Swan plate, and
the design consists Of . boy placed on the outer
edge with swans on either side of him. The
edge is raised in Dresden relief ready for color
ing. This would make pretty little RECEPTACLE
for bon-bon or small cakes or waters. Another il
pocketshapsd stand and has q boy with bag
pipes perched on the top. This could be used
equally well for sweetmeats or flowers. Any
little basket-shaped or tray-like dish can be
used on tee table, - one likes variety 20
that different things may appear ct different
times, and thus the color effects may be varied.
With the present rage for collecting pretty
china nothing can be better to give - an OFFER

UNLESS all signs fail there will
be tremendous effort made to Sc
cure from the next Congress legis-
lation looking to the establishment
OF territorial government over
Oklahoma and contiguous sections
of the Indian country. Theorize as
We may about treaty stipulations and
Indian rights, the fact remains that
forces are at work both inside and
out of the territory with the ulti.
mate object in view of breaking
down the Chinese wall surrounding
this fair land and opening the same
to settlement. Only a few years
will witness the admission into the
union of one or more new State:
embracing the territory occupied by
the various Indian tribes.

The Farmers Alliance.


Editor DEMOCRAT;
have been requested to say
something more about the Alliance.
1t is secret organization, and was
first organized in Texas about ten
years ago. 1t was plant of slow
growth for few years, but in the
last four it has grown very fast,
spreading from Texas into all of the
southern and northwestern states,
and it is still spreading northward
and becoming very strong wherever
organized. The Alliance makes war
on nothing nor any body, simply at
tends to its own business, and allows
other men the same privilege. Ii
labors for the advancement of the
farmer, mentally, morally, socially,
and financially. 1t has no sectarian-
ism, and leans to no pet political
party. When one enters the doors
of the Alliance he is given the as
surance that his religious and pc.
litlcal opinions shall not be interior
ed with. Should the majority of an
Alliance desire to put out ticket IN
township or county, they could not
do so, because the Arkansas State
Alliance provides: "That should any
Alliance in this State put out a tick.
ct or engage In politics or attempt to
do so, its charter shall be forfeited
and its property become the property
of the State Alliance" The purity
of the order throughout the State
will depend upon the faithfulness
with which they do their duty, and
the lives they live.
Mr.. Editor, / hope to hear from
your kicker on the Alliance question
| think he would make a useful
member if be wants to kick the
credit system out of Pope county as
well as many other things that
aught to be kicked out. Let Mr.
Kicker join the Alliance, and turn
it loose in the county and he vii
say he never saw a better kicker in
bis life than this order. 1t has kick
ed out middle men in many places
kicked down high prices, kicked the
stuffin' out of the jute bagging trust
and she has just begun to kick.
would like to know who your kicker
is any way. j. &. RYE.

THE Montana election Is rapidly
assuming the phases of Southern
election in Republican days. 1t is
an Inauspieious beginning for that
State that its very first election
should become so involved, and that
so determined an attempt should be
made to overthrow the will OF the
people; and it is certainly not com
plmentary to the Australian ballot
system that the only one of the new
States holding its election under the
system should be the one where there
is any charges of fraud.

The world is getting wiser every day
Mankind is constantly advancing from
the old to the new. As it Is with relig.
ion, art and science, so it is with medi-
cine. Each day adds to our knowledge
of the human body, and therefore, to
our ability to cure its many ills. The
day of gripping, purging, facilitating
pills, for instance. is rapidly passing
away, and their place being taken by a
Bowel Regulator. whose action is natn-
raj and easy. yet effective. Such a
medicine is Man-a-lin, gentle laxative
that acts directly upon the Liver and
Kidneys, and leaves no bad effects. II
neither gripes nor purges. 1t not only
cures Constipation, but. all the disord-
ers and diseases arising from it, and
when taken from time to time in small

TIE Indian, as political factor,
is likely, in the near future, to at
tract public attention. By recent
acts of congress every Indian over
81 years of age, who receives an
allotment of land in severalty, be
comes a voter. The successful ter
minstion of the negotiations with
the Sioux Indians by which thes
surrender large part of their res
ervation in Dakota, Will, 1t is es
timated, by the next year, throw In
to the politics Of the state 4,937 votes
The negotiations now in progress
will soon make many more Indian
voters. AT the interior department
1t is thought that upward of 20,o0C
Indians will be entitled to vote in
the next presidential election.

The only salvation for the repub.
liean party in any national contest is
the support of the colored voters in
the northern States. Without that
united vote the republicans would
stand no show in Massachusetts,
Rhode Island, New York, Ohio, In
diana and Illinois. In all those
States the republicans show their in
gratitude by Withholding from the
colored man every office of honor or
