PEACE AND PROSPERITY
Attainable Only Through Demo
 cratic Rule in State and Nation.

The Democratic party believe in a government of the people, for the people and by the people, without re- gard to section or class. Ihls IS true of no other political party, the Republicans fovoring government made up of the monopolies, for the monopolies and by the monopolles, with class laws favoring only the manufacturer and corporation, to the great injury of the masses, Demo- crats want all persons to have even and exact justice, granting special favors to none, while Republicans legislate to make the rich richer and the poor poorer, by enactlng unjust class laws to the benefit of the one and great injury of the other. The so-callcd l.. l.. party is only an ad- iunct of the Republicans. soft is use- less to discuss it. Democrats want a fair pension given disabled Union soldiers. while the Republicans favor exorbitant pensions for all soldiers, whether fair or unfair to the taxpay- CTS of the nation. Democrats want q government economically admins tered. and low tariff taxes-the Re- publicans, extravagant expenditures and high taxes.
 None can deny facts stated above, as to the two parties, and hence we say peace and prosperity can be at tained in the State and nation only through Democratic rule. Democra- cv has held the fabric of this govern ment together since it's formation, and in the future will continue to hold it together-it has had a con tinuous existence, a thing unknown to any other party. This party is gaining ground all the time, and ere long a grand and peaceful tidal wave will reyolutionize the nation, and all unjust class laws will be wiped out by it, and peace and prosperity pre- vail everywhere; then all will be taxed alike and even-handed justice prevail.
 Democrats stand firm and be vali- ant in work for your party and your country's good. What a grand thing to be known as Democrat In the approaching State and county election let us see to it that all who wish to enter our fold are kindly, warmly received-win over as many as possible and drive none away. Powell Clayton and his Republican assistants are striving hard to again get control of our State through his creature, the o-called L. L. party. Warn your neighbor who may be about to be deceived, and he will be foiled in his attempt, and Arkansas kept from ruin.
