EDsToR DEMocRAT.- Yon seem to
have no regular correspondent from
this vicinity; will you kindly admit
few dotsS Some one may be in
terested 10 reading the happenings
from this corner, or rather center Of
old Pope.
We do not claim to be the center
Of the world, but we are near the ge-
ographical center Of Pope county.
We are in gapway between the
Iron Ore and Buck Mountains at an
elevation CT about FIVE hundred feet
above the Arkansas river.
Some Of our natural resources are
good water, health, pine knots and
rocks. Nature has done a great deal
for this county, and the people very
little, yet we have a good education
al interest, church aud Sunday
school facilities good, some excellent
farms in the surrounding country
crops are looking well, wheat harvest
IN full blast, and the wheat IS better
than we thought. The oat crop is
damaged by the dry weather, but
the recent rams yet insure us over
half crop. We had some frost this
morning but not enough to do mate
rial damage to crops.
We are reveling in immense guam
titles Of garden truck, spring chick
ems and berries, and with our mex
haustible supply of the best water in
the world, we can only laugh and
grow fat. Our DR.. Rice has project
on foot to build two bath houses. Oh
course he will succeed. He and l.
n. eagle know no such word as fail
Miss Eva eagle is succeeding fine
ly with her select school. She is,
believe, the twelfth teacher from oul
school, since Prof NJ. has been with
us, no mean showing.
Ed. Landers, of the Baptist church
is our preacher and pastor, hence
we are favored with some gospe
preaching at each visit. More anon

CnIcAGo, Ill, March Ito the
Editor: Having read in your yalua-
bic paper Of number Of persons
having been bitten by rabid dog,
and knowing the anxiety Of mind
caused these persone and their fam
lilies, Of what horrible deaths may be
awaiting them in the near future, !
wish 10 the cause Of humanity you
would publish it. ! have known OF
fifty cases Of persons having been
bitten by rabId dogs in Montgomery
county, Pa, in the last twenty years,
and not a single death resulted where
this remedy was used according to
the directions, while those who re-
fused to take it, had regular" at
tend them, invariably died with the
rabies. have known ofcases where
two persons were both bitten at the
same time. one took the remedy and
never suffered any i'll effects from
the bite, while the other died with
the rabies in nine weeks after being
bitten. / would earnestly request
all your half million readers to cut
this out and preserve it, for there is
no telling when they will badly need
it.
Take II ounces of elecampane root,
grind it ia coffee mill viii do), put
the ground root IN pint ofnew milk,
boil down TO half pint, take it at
one dose in the morning, and fast
till say p. N. Of the same day. Re
peat this every other day for three
days, making three doses in all. The
last two doses may consist Of 2 ounc.

1t is important that it be taken on an
empty stomach, also that nothing
should be eaten till from eight TO ten

Most of those bitten took it lmmed.

SENATOR Berrr and Jones.

Memphis Appeal.
We print elsewhere reports Of in.
teryiews had by our staff correspond
eut with Senators Berry and Jones,
Of Arkansas, during the session 81
the Press Association Of that State
at Bentonville. We direct general
attention to these interviews, not Oh
Is because they sustain the position
taken by the Appeal as to the prose-
cutions in the Federal Courts being
turned into persecution for partisan
ends and purposes, but because OF
the almost indictments they make OF
the Federal courts for not merely q
biased and partial administration Of
justice, but for the packing Of grand
and petit juries, and for excessive
punishments, punishments out Of all
proportion to the alleged crimes.
The Senators, guarded and careful as
becomes men in their position, are
none the less oatspoken IN their dec
laration that the Federal axe Is in
full swing, and is knocking good
Democrats on the head upon the tes-
timony OF ignorant, infamed and
prejudiced negroes, who are easily
reached by the designing Republl-
can leaders and the dough faced
Democrats, msny Of whom helped TO
try and defeat Eagle in his race for
Governor As is well known, the
Appeal is for law aud order, it up
holds tue supremacy Of the courts,
and prefers to believe in the temper
ed justice of all Judges. But, on
the other hand, it is equally well
known that we have always kept it
before our readers that Judges are
but men, Of like passions and preju-
dices with other men, and that some
Of them are narrow, bigoted and par
Lisan, and therefore incapable Of the
| judicial fairness that is the essential
qualification for just Judge. ell
fares the land, to Fastening ills a
prey" that is cursed by such Judges.
They bring the courts into contempt
and narrow justice itself TO the GOV
etousness Of party greed and person
al necessity. This was seen every
where in the South during the re
construction period, when the courts
were made TO second and enforce the
plans and purposes Of the Republican
party, retard the restoration Of the
Union, and prevent the revival Of
the fraternal spirit that is the one
essential of real union. But, as il
was then for Democrats to appeal tc
| Republicans, 50 it is now useless
The Democrats must protect them
selves. The Democrats OF Arkansas
must band together for their mutua
protection; if they do not they mus
expect continuation Of the perse
eution Of which Senator Berry espec
tally complains; they must expec
additional summary convection anc
more excessive punishment. They
must set about at once securing
funds and employing lawyers anc
follow up the suborned witnesses ant
bring them before the State court!
for punishment. They should make
it their business to contend openly
and manfully for even handed justice
and thus prevent the spread of th'
terror that oyershadows and threat
ems their State. And there is nj
time to lose in beginning this work
work that means not only the say
ing of innocent men, but the pre-
vention of the seal of attestation be
ing put by the United States Court
upon the indictment of the Democra
cy of Arkansas by Powell Clayton.

THE PAPER AGE.
Time is Coming When Paper
VIII run the Earth.

The world has seen its iron age,
its stone age, It's golden age, and It's
brazen age, says the Paper World.
This is the age of paper. We are
making so many things of paper that
it will soon be true that without pa
per there is nothing made that is
made. We live in paper houses,
wear paper clothing, and sit on paper
cushions in paper cars, rolling on pa
per wheels. We do a paper business
over paper counters, buying paper
goods, paying for them with paper
money or charging them in paper
books, and deal in paper stocks on
paper margins. We row races In
paper boats for paper prizes. We
go to paper theatres where paper
actors play to paper audiences. We
elect paper men with paper votes on
paper issue, to represent a paper
constituency Ia a paper Congress,
and make paper laws. AS the age
develops, the coming man will be

ing the partizan bent Of the federal
court during its recent session in
Little Rock. II will be observed
that the opinions Of these distin-
guished citizens are in perfect accord
with nine tenths Of the Arkansas
state press, as well as many Of the
leading and influential journals pub
Iished outside Of the State. The
Appeals article is strong, timely and
eminently worthy of the earnest con
sideratlon Of every true democrat in

MIR. Carriers Version of OkIaho-

Conway Log Cabin; Mr.. Hardy
Carter of Dardanelle Is prosecuting
attorney in the 9Th District. He has
been over IN Oklahoma. A repre-
sentative of this paper saw him on
the train few days ago as he was
returning from the great boomer
land. He located in Guthrie. Was
one of the first to get off the train at
that place and secured town lot.
He built business house 16x24 feet
and is renting itat $500 per month,
cash in advance. Another man
built a house 10 feet from his. He
enclosed the space between and is
renting that at Sl2 per month. He
says the sensational reports of muir
ders and killings sent out from there
are unfounded. No one has been
killed there. Fellows would come
in and squat on anothers lot but by
the help of neighbors his tent and
everything would be picked up and
put off, then they would go and help
the fellow to find him lot. Every
body is armed but no trouble is had.
The men there are mostly of a class
who want good order that all may be
benefited by the uninterrupted
transaction Of business. The price
OF living Is nov getting down to
about the proper figures. He is GO
ing back in a short time and thinks
he will make some money.

THE pension expenditures of the
next fiscal year under Corp. Tanners
policy OF distributing largess to who
ever demands it will exceed $780,
100000. says the st. Louis Republic.
This is a larger sum than the cost of
the entire military establishment OF
Germany, under the burden of which
the people of that tax-ridden country
are so FESTIVE. 1t far exceeds the
total annual cost of the whole feder-
al government previous to 1861. And
yet the grand army machine which
showed Corp. Tanner upon the Pres
ident as Pension Commissioners, is
demanding a service pension that
would call for from $60,000,O0O to
$70,000,000 more per annum. The
claim of the grand army machine is
that its members "saved the coun-
try" 1t is about time to ask if a
country had not as well be wrecked
in war as ruined in peace.

CIRCUIT JUDGE WILLIAMS Of the
eleventh judicial district has resign
ed on account of the insufficiency Of
the salary attached TO the Office and
will re engage in the practice Of Law.
Prosecuting attorney Elliott also re-
signed his office IN order to become a
candidate for the vacant judgeship.
At convention held for that purpose
at Pine Bluff last week Hon. Jno. M.
Elliott was endorsed for judge and S.
NJ. Taylor named for prosecuting at
torney. Both candidates are demo
Gratis, and the strange part Of the
proceeding is that the endorsing
convention was largely republican.
The district is anti democratic by a
large majority. 1t is understood
that there will be ne other nomina-
tions and the ticket endorsed will be
elected without opposition.
