Some of our State exchanges seem to
be disposed to find fault with the State
House commission because they employed
Massachusetts, architects to make the
plans and specifications and superintend
the erection of the fire proof extension.
The theory that our own architects and
builders should have the preference, 9TH
err things being equal or nearly 80, is a
correct one, but we are Informed that 80
days time or more was saved by employ
ing Bridgham and Spoford as they had
taken the precaution to prepare plans to
place before the commission, ana beside
Maine architects were not so well &C
quainted with fre-proof buildings as
were the firm employed. We are also in
formed the vote of the commission to
employ Brigham K Spoford was unani-
nous.

auguratIon Day.

There is something Of diversity in the
way our newspaper friends look upon the
Both of April. The Portland Express, of
the 18th and 3Oth instants, says, that
both are Fast Days. To this the Ken
nebec journal takes exceptions and says
the 30th is Thanksgiving day, and we arc
to have the advantage of two Thanksgiy-
ing days this year. While 1t may be
cause of thanksgiving that we have en-
joyed constitutional government and have
completed one hundred years under our
Presidential succession, it seems TO US
that the day was set apart for the
purpose Of public commemoration, the
object being to call the attention of clti-
zens of our Great Republic to the bless
ings of a free, enlightened government,
and to impress them with the Importance
of cultivating patriotic impulses by Civ
ing Inference to patriotic sentiments and
by supplicating the God Of Nations for
continuation of our country in the pur-
suits and arts of peace and prosperity.
We certainly have much to be thankful
for and to rejoice over, yet, when we
think what this heritage has cost, the joy
is chastened with feelings of solemnity.

HoN Chsuncy F. Black, preside Tt of the National Association of Dem ocratic Clubs, has suggested that the birthday of Thomas Jefferson, April 2d, be observed as a democrat ic holiday throughout the country. The Arkansas democracy can cele brate the day in peculiarly appro- priste manner by laying aside their work for short time and going to the polls and voting for the demo- cratic judicial ticket. This would render the occasion memorable and do honor to the name and memory of Jefferson. Besides It would do honor to the democracy of the state to elect by decisive majority the excellent gentleman named by the State convention to fill the positions of associate justices of the supreme court.

TIE election for supreme judges is but few days of. The democratic nominees are men fully competent for the positions for which they have been named. Democratic suprema- cy in the judicial department is nee. essary for the preservation of demo cratic institutions, and we appeal to the democracy of Pope county to go to the polls and roll up our usual democratic majority for Hughes, Hemmingway and Sandels.

To the Democratic Voters of
 Pope County.

On Tuesday, the 2d day of April, 1889, one of the most important cleo tions in the history of our State is to be held for the purpose of electlag three Supreme Judges. The repub- Iican party is better organized to- day than at any time since the down fall of Reconstruction. They are bending every effort for the success of their ticket and in every county in the State have men on horseback rallying every voter to the polls under the order of their Chief, Powell Clayton. Nothing but indif. ference on our part can defeat the time tried Democracy. We, there. fore, appeal to the patriotism of ev- cry democrat in Pope county to arouse to his duty for this election involves the turning over to the re- publican party one of the most Im- portant branches of the State gov. ernment-the Judiciary.
 If you want our constitution, the bulwark of our liberties, the charter Of our freedom, and the Statute laws of our State onstrued with fairness justice and impartiality, see tha, nothing keeps you from the polls If on the other hand you care noth ing for these things, or consider them secon dary to the every day af fairs of life, stay at home and let the control of our Supreme Court, the court of last appeal in settling ou; rights and liberties, pass into the hands of the satellites of Powel Clayton, that arch enemy of every thing that IS honest and respectable in politics and who would use tho courts of Heaven itself, if possible for partizan purposes and to gair his selfish ends.
 Be not deceived. Trust nothing to the apathy of the republican par ty. They will poll their full strength We must poll ours. No man know when he may have occasion to ap peal to the supreme court for justice Take It home to yourselves and con slider whom you want to sit Tn judg ment on your case. Bear this 1T mind and turn out and vote Let nothing keep you from the polls Eternal vigilance is the price O liberty. Be steadlast, be true tt yourselves and your party and al will be well.

TIE Russellyille DEMOCRAT refers to Gregg, Mitchell and Hill as "rene- gads Democrats gone oyer to the Re publiesns for spoils." Gregg has been s Republican since the war, and Hill claims to be an "independent." " But 1t does not not pay to abuse the opposition ticket. 1t is vastly more profitable to make it plain to the vo- ter that there IS sn absolute neces sity resting on him to stop planting corn, bedding up cotton, rolling logs or planting potatoes just long enough to go to the polls to vote for better ticket. That is the point VIC want to make.-Little Rock Democrat.

INFORMATION has been sent out from Little Rock that the republican state central committee has divided the state into districts and placed each district in charge of some prom inent leader with instructions to send canvassers out and work up a general interest for their nominees for associate justices of the supreme court. They have even gone 80 far as to notify every applicant for fed eral appointment that the result of the vote in his district will be con sidered in deciding his applica- tion. The orders are being faithfully executed and the strenuous efforts of the democrats everywhere will be necessary to thwart the enemy's plans. Let every democrat leave his work for @ few hours at least on election day and go to the polls and work and vote for the democratic | ticket.
