\ Pauperlxsng system.

The wise and chivalroGs Bishop of New York, in hIs oration before liar. yard College, thus speaks of the pen sion system Of the Federal govern ment. Be It remebered, too, that Bishop Poter is life long Repsbll. can:
 "rhe honorable provisions for those who suffered and were disabled in thei- county's defense threatens, under the selfish and interruptions manipulation of those who see in the degradation of their fellow citizens a short and easy road to political su. premacy, to become pauperizing system, whose least and most inno cent consequence is the ruinous bur den which it is destined, sooner or later. to saddle upon the public treasury. Never was there phari- seeism of philanthrophy in which personal aggraniizement more i'm prudently masqueraded ID the gar ment Of a grateful patriotism than our halls of congress have lately pre- sented; and the unmanlv silence with which scns::11.es SO grotesque that they should have long ago been laughed out of any intelligent public assembly have been received, is one Of the most amazing facts of onr DO. ltical experience.
 "I5deed, far apart In time as are Rome and America, we must needs own that resemblance of history are at once tragic and significant. It was a huge military organization, remember, which once put the Ro man Empire up at auction and pro posed to knock It down to the high est bidder. To-day It Is in the air that It is the party which bids high est to precisely similar constituen cy that is to be rewarded with the symbols of national primacy and au- thority. And out of this it mas come to pass that not alone some scared and honorable veteran, not alone some brave and maimed survivor of an heroic charge, that not alone the widow and orphan whom death on the field or in the hospital have left bereft and penniless; but every skulking camp-follower and deserter, every fraudulent and tainted claim ant who has the effrontery to de mand his bribe, can have it, if only his vote shall thus become com modity within the control Of parti san dictation, and he himself lack ey to do his political masters bid ding"

IF the basis of one member of con gress for IS0, 900 is adopted the cleo
 toral college to be chosen in Novsm Der, 1892, will number 442. The successful candidate for the presi. dency will have to receive at least 222 votes. The electoral votes of the states az they will be if this ba. sis is adopted are given below. The classification as democrats and re- publicans is based simply on the re- suit inlS68: Republican states--Cal- fornia g, Colorado 4, Illinois A, In diana l5, Iowa l3, Kansas II, Maine 6, Massachusetts IA, Michigan 14, Minnesota 10, Nebraska 8, Nevada 3, New Hampshire 4. New York 26. Ono P, Oregsn 4, Pennsylvania 32, Rhode Island 4, Vermont 4, Wiscon sin l2, total 249. Demcratic states Alabama II, Arkansas ', Connecti. cut 6, Deleware 3, Florida 4, Georgia l2, Kentucky l3. Louisiana 8, Mary land 8, Mississippi g, Missouri IT. New Jersey 10, North Carolina II, South Carolina 9, Tennessee 12, Tex. as IA, Virginia II, West Virginia 6, total TIC. New states-Idaho 3, Montana 3, North Dakota 3, South Dakota 4, Washington 4, Wyoming 3, total 20. The most significant deduction to be drawn from the fig ures is that New York ceases to be the pivotal state. The thirty six votes of New York transferred to the democratic column give only PIP that is ten less than the number nee essary to elect. Indiana and New York added to the democratic col. umn carry the presidency with five electoral votes to spare.

THERE IS considerable significant comment in political circles over an advertisement of Postmaster-General Wanamaker's business house in the Philadelphia Press, in which he says;
 "Tinwsre is advancing in cost and very soon the manufacturers will have their way, and you will have to pay very much more. In view of this state Of things we made some time since a large purchase of kitch en tiuware ct what was a very low price then and would be far lowernow m the face of two advances in the makers price list"
 Mir. Plumb and the other western republicans, who spoke and voted against the tariff bill, fought the tin plate duty vigorously and now a member of the Presidents cabinet agrees with these senators that the duty will greatly increase the price Of tinware.

K his speech here last Tuesday Mir. Mills reviewed the tariff qnes- ton from various stand points and showed how its workings were det- rimental to the laboring and agri. cultural classes. The speech was highly appreciated and left food for reflection and has done much good for the party and the cause of tariff reform. It would have been time we'll spent if every citizen in Pope county had been here and head it.

The Public win Appreciate It.


 Tue pubhc are indebted to the Royal Baking Powder Company not more for having perfected and pre- pared levening agent that Is pure and wholesome beyond a question than for it's exposures, so boldly made, of numerous impure, adulter ated and injurious articles that are sold under the name Of baking pow ders. bread preparations, etc, throughout the country. In making these exposures the company has, of course, made itself tue target for all sorts Of counter attacks, but the minus Of these attacks has been perfectly understood by the general public, and their very yirulence have served to more prominently call at tention to the good work of the Royal" Company.
 Ordinary adulterations such as are found in coffee, spices, etc, al though they are swindles in com mercial sense, are often tolerated be cause they do not particularly affect the health Of tue consumer. But when an article like baking powder, that is relied upon for the healthful preparation of almost every meal, is so made as to carry highly injurious if not rankly poisonous elements in to their daily food, is 1t not the duty of the public authorities to take cog nizance Of it.
 In thus fight for pure food made by tue "Roya' Company, 1t IS to be noticed that the most trustworthy scientific authorities are emphatic ally npon it's side. In all the con- tests of this company with the alum and other impure baking powders the result has proven that every statement made by Royal Baking Powder Company, both as to purity of it's own and the adulteration of other baking powders of the market, was fully authorized by the most competent chemical and medical authorities Of the country.
 In this contest two facts have been pretty conclusively settled in the minds of the public--the first that the Royal Company has found the means, and uses them, to make a chemically pure article of food l; and the other that the market is full of poisonous, alum and other adul terated baking powders which no matter how strongly endorsed by commercial" chemists, are to be studlously avoided.
 A pure baking powder is one of the chief aids to the cook in pre- paring perfect and wholesome food. The recent onlroversy in the press has left It no longer question with those who desire purity and whole someness of food what baking pow der they shall use.

cratic party has not had since 1860. This Mir. Langley ought to know, else he is too ignorant to represent any people In congress. He referred to Mir. Langley's use of sacerdotal robes to deceive the people, and said if he ever was the embassador of Christ and received the commission to go out to heal the sick. restore the blind, raise the dead, cast out dev. Ills, etc, he had allowed Powell Clay ton to change that commission to raising the devil and casting out democrats" He showed how futile and visionary was the Sub Treasury scheme of which Langley is such an enthusiastic advocate. His expos ure Of the folly ofthe wildcat scheme was most convincing. He admitted that Mir. Langley was stating one correct proposition, and that was that before the war there was $36 per capita in circulation while now there IS less than $9. He wanted to know of Mir. Langley where the oth- CT S27 had gone to, but that gentle man either didn't know or wouldn't tell. Mir. Mills explained that in stead of being in the hands of the people where it belonged it was in the pockets of manufacturers and money kings, put there through and by republican fayorltism. He paint ed in true colors the devilish ma lightly of the force bill, voted for by Featherstone and endorsed by Powell Clayton, Lsngley's political master. He referred to the startling fact that the supervisors under the provisions of that bill were appoint ed for life and that no matter what kind of a crime he might commit while in office. no democrat would be permitted to sit as juror in . tria! Of his case. None but the faithful would be allowed to pass upon his acts. In other words the court would be organized in advance to acquit. He made strong appeal to all patriotic sons to stand shoulder to shoulder against the party pledg- ed to such preposterous and iniqui. tous Legislation. He closed with a sublime peroration winch elicited rapturous applause, and will be long remembered by all who heard it.
 This was Mir. Mllls last appoint. ment in Arkansas. He goes home to take rest prepara tory to enter ing the canvass in hIs own State.
 After MT. Mills was through, loud calls were heard for Judge H. F. Thomasson of Van Buren. who, after the band ceased playing, responded in brlef way, thanking Mir. Mills for his admirable address and urg. ing the voters of the second district to yindicate the State in general and Mir. Breckinridge in particular at the polls on the 4th ot November. A re. sponslye acclaim went up from thou sands of throats.
 The music for the occasion was furnished by the DardaEelle band and their splendid performance was one of the most attractive features of the day. On behalf of all the peo- pie present, and Russellville espec. ially, we thank them heartily for their kindness.
 We would like to mention speci. 6cally the many distinctive features of the occasion, the clubs, etc, but space and time forbids. All did we'll, and Mills day" n Pope coun- ty will long be remembered as a great day.
