sprinc Millinery,

In bonnets there Is not 30 much change of
style, except that they are smaller and lower
than they were last year. A pretty little
French ono in black lace, with small green
velvet bows, had front of delicate pink
roses, under fall Of the fine black lace.
The bows were placed, one little to one side
of the front, and the other at the back, where
it broke the straight edge Another, in the
same mixture Of color, had an open network

pale green roses as well as the pink. These
green roses appear In various bounets which

THE Morrilton Headlight reads the Washington Press lecture be- cause the latter prefers Judge Mitch ell to Col. Roots or Gen. Clayton for cabinet position.-Arkansas Dem ocrat.
 Precious little effect will the pref erence of Arkansas democratic edi tors and politicians have upon the cabinet appointing power. The cab inet announcement on the fourth of March will confirm the prediction here made that neither Roots, nor Clayton, nor Mitchell, nor any other republican from this state, will be @ member of Mir. Harrison's political family. They are of two small . calibre to advise with the head of eE administration foreordaiped by it's leaders to be one of towering strength and resplendent magnifi- cence.

Norwood and his contin- gent of labor agitators and re- publican followers will be solely re. sponslble for it. To have refused MT. Norwood's petition would be con. strued as an admission of his charg es, and this perhaps would suit the Doctors purposes better than an in- vestigation, but that would not be . vindication of the democratic posi- ton, and no other course can accom- pliish this so we'll as full, free and fair investigation regardless of the cost.

THE contest of Dr. Norwood for the governors office is based on pe- tition and recital of alleged facts which form a most audacious docu- ment. It is just such a paper as one would suppose to be & fitting product of the Norwood coterie of politicians and sbettors. The petition recites the fact that in ffty.three counties sf the State "a free ballot and 6 fair count" was had, but in thirty-three others including our own county of Pope, he alleges that the returns are FALSE and FRAUDULENT. He claims his election by majority of 5,679, and closes his petition with this pray CT:
