 In the face of all this the republi- can party IS moving heaven and earth to re establish their infamous rule in Arkansas by establishing side shows and dead falls to catch tue unwary and unsuspectlng, the most prominent of which was the Brothers Of Freedom alias Wheel manipulated by one Norwood as figure head and engineered by one Powell Clayton. Next comes the Farmers and Laborers Union, next the Union Labor, and Uncle Zack Baker, the sweet singer of Benton, is getting up party to be styled something like this, the Farmers and Laborers Union and Anti Monopoly party. This is what we call stun ner. All of this is cunning device to distract and divide the democratic party and turn loose the hungry horde of republican vampires.

CONTRARY to expectation there are some republicans in congress who will not submit to the brutal dicta- tion of Reed in the support of the iniquitous election bill. MT. Ewart of North Carolina, although a repub- lican, made strong speech against the blll the other day and gave utteranee to some wholesome C truths. He stated that he was aware of the penalty he should pay for opposing the bill. Unfortunate ly politics had come to such pass that under the rule of King Caucus men would vote for measures that deep down Tn their hearts they did not bsliere in. They know deep down in theIr hearts that this was as damnable and vicious q piece of legislation as was ever put on the statue books. As to tue negroes political rights, speaking for his own State, he unhesltatingly asserted that no republican in the State, black or white, was prevented from casting hls vote. The elections there were absolutely fair. There were men in the South who hated the negro and abused him. Sometimes they were punished and sometimes not, but the entire people of the South should not be blamed for the acts of few lawless men. He was sick and tired of the sentimental talk of the negro problem. There was no such problem. It was de fusion to suppose the negro was vot- Ing the republican ticket solidly. He was doing nothing of the kind. Many of them were voting the demo oeratic ticket, and it was getting more and more difficult every year fol the republican party to control the negro. He had no hesitation in saying that not three tenths of the negroes of the South would vote for the republican party if the election were held tomorrow.

w. JASPER BLACKBURN, editor Of the Little Rock Republican, one of the ablest, most conservative and conscientious representatives of the republican party in this State, re fuses to support the Fizer ticket al though asked to do so in the name ofthe republican party. His reasons are pointed, and couched in this vigorous language:
 "Our party, that was or should have been and should still be (the so-called republican party of Arkan- sas having about thoroughly fizzled out on Fizer, we see nothing at pres ent for decent white man or an honest negro to do but support the straight democratic state ticket in the pending campaign: hence we hoist it, with the platform, and call upon the honest masses of our na- tive state to come to the rescue, in this contest of organized principle against a chaotic confusion of politi- cal odds and ends in quest of spells only.

Such a remarkable event is treasured in the memory and the agency whereby the good health has been attained is grateful. ly blessed. Hence it's that so much is heard in praise of Electric Bitters. So many feel they owe their restora. ton to health, to the use of the Great Alterative and Tonic.

Johnson and Yell counties having expressed their choice for the office of prosecuting attorney in favor of my opponent, Mir. Davis, and it be. ing natural to presume that his own county would support him, which would give hlm three counties out of the four, l deem 1t right that l should withdraw my name as . can didate for that position. I desire to tender my sincere thanks to those people of the district who in spite of my youth and unacquaintance sup. ported me SO heartily and especially the people of my own county and those Democratic clubs which have expressed themselves so unanimous in my favor. While I think 1t en- tlrely possible, owing to the strong vote of my own county that I might yet secure majority of the votes of the district, according to the basis of representation in the judicial con. vention fixed by the state central committee, and which I hold to be the true Democratic plan. Mir. Davis would be justly entitled to the nom- ination. Very truly,

FoR the information of the Vindi- cator we desire to state that we are unalterably opposed to double slot ted ballot boxes, the PlummeryIlle steal, the Pulaski steal and every other steal whether committed by democrats, republicans or union la bor apostles. We would like to ask our neighbor if he is opposed to the steal, murders and other outrages committed in this State during the republican reign from '6S to TAP If so, why is it that you willingly con sort with the authors of those crimes in politics and thus put yourself on an equality with them. The very same ones are with you today working hand in hand. Are they any better now than then2 Do you expect to be purified by such contact?

TIE statement that the union la bor candidate for governor was clos eted several hours one day last week with Henry Cooper and other repub licans of equal notonety, led the Little Rock Evening Post to observe that Brother FIzer has started out as the apostle of free ballot and a iair count m company with Henry Coop CT and other friends of that move ment Their idea of free ballot IS to organize the negroes into a secret society and bulldoze them in to voting open tickets. The attempt will fail for the farmers have caught OR to the combination. The average farmer may not see a political trick AS soon as some people, but when he does see that he is being used asa tool to restore negro rule to this state he kicks with a kick that is exceeding ly great He is getting h!s kicking muscles into training now.

Whats the Matter?


 Ed. DEMOCRAT: In the name of al consclence what is the matterS The Amencan people who for the past century have prided themselves ir doing the greatest good to the great. est number and doing so in defiance of the bowling minority.
 After all these long years of inde pendence aad prosperity cries oi What's the Matter" Is heard on all sides. Let us see if there is c solu tion to the query.
 The prevailing craze for wealth and power has so effectually predom mated that justice and equity is lost sight of There is no spbterfuge too vile to carry out and attain the ends sought.
 Since the inauguration of the re- publican party in 1861, it's history is an open book. Generalization and dis regard of constitutional rights have taken the place of former law and order. Leaving out the four years of fratricldal war that laid waste the once happy homes of our beautiful southland, the condition needs not the historian to bring back the sad memories of the atrocious deeds of the vandals that swept the country with fire and sword and sent our wives and children hungry and cold to take shelter in the barns and out houses they might chance to find. This part of the dark history we will pass over.
 After the surrender every true southern soldier returned home anxious to regain his lost fortunes and regain his citizenship. Our tormentors were not satisfied to have peace, this was the last of their thoughts. They kept standing arm ies in different parts of the country and established Freedmen's Blu reaus to terrorize, intimidate and op press the people. The intelligence of our country was dlsfranchised and the government was placed in the hands of interruptions carpet bag. gers and ignorant negroes.
 The legislation of those memorable days is a matter of history. Villain. ous schemes were concocted and bur. densome debts were saddled on the people. No redress could be had. Our courts were composed of men devoid of principle and strangers to justice. Taxation without represen- tation was the order of the day.
 Let us examine the doings of the party in our own State.
 First, the renewal of the Holford bonds; second, tbe Railroad aid bonds; thlrd, the Levee bonds, amounting in all to more than SIP, poo, 900; fourth, the missppropriation l 1f the school fund; last, but not east the Clayton militia debt, to | 'ay nothing of the wholesale murders by the vandals, headed 1y uphsm and Catterson. The most damnable of all was the bill passed by the republi ,an legislature which let the mur ierers go scott free. This reign of error was unprecedented In the an. lals of civilized government. At ast, when forbearance ceased to be a 'irtue, the democrats took possession f the government. What was the ondition:
 They found the indebtedness of he State to be over $13,000,0 900 in ound numbers, and there was the normous sum of S6s in the treasury ault, notwithstanding there had

DID some one remark that the democratic party was not friend to silver? Will you pull that Bland dollar out of your pocket and ask who it's daddy was and who was at its christening as standard dollar worth 100 cents at the treasury, on Wall street, among the poor people and nobobs alike. You can depend on it that dollar will never go back on it's parentage. Each one as it rolls out of the mInt will take great pleasure in giving the lie to any such story as democratic unfriendliness to silver.

In Exceedingly Bad Taste.

ClarksvilIe Herald Journal: "N. B. Fizer," said harem scarem Wharton, of Pope county, "embodies the spirit of George Washington and Jesus Christ" Now we would just like to ask, Tn the first place, what does it matter with Wharton or any such a man, whether man em- bodies the spirit of Christ or the spirit of the devil? There IS not a more corrupt, vile man in the State than this same Wharton, his best friends being judges. The idea of such a man bringing into compari. son with Jesus Christ, political as- pirant! Sacrilege, in it's most ven nomous form. Men should not be compared with the Savior of the world In any particular whatever; it is in exceedingly bad taste.

It ceases 10 be wonder then that republicans pay him such seryile homage and give him such cheerful support. They know that if once elected, he, like Featherstone, will become 6 willing tool and grant them such concessions as will event ually place them in control of the State.
