SPEECH OF HON. T. c. McRAE

Monday, quite a large crowd turned out to hear the speech of the above-namcd gentleman. In open ing, after saying he was pleased to again meet so many old friends, stated that he did not know whether or not he had an opponent, that he understood Capt. Matt White had withdrawn, and heard it contradicted. Urged s!l to turn out and vote, as that was the only safe plan to foil an adroit enemy.
 At some length, reviewed evil legis- lation enacted during the past twenty years. Republicans had enacted all of the bad and oppressive laws com plained of so much hereabouts. Democrats had passed all beneficial legislation enacted since 1861. From 1868 to 1874, Democrats rebukcd Republication, in throwing off the galling yoke of carpet bag rule, in the South. Individual Democrats have done wrong, but the par ty organization was not respon- sible for thelr acts, and he had never an excuse to offer or apology to make for, such things. Even Cleveland had his faults, and finding his party almost solidly opposed to his silver ideas, he has since come into perfect accord with his party, thus acknowledging his error. Cleveland made a grand fight for low tariff and honesty, but lost, yet it took .S4, ,O00, ,O00 from the "fat-fried" manufacturers to elect Harrison. What corruption and debauchery of the ballot that, with money captured votes, in "block-of-ii five n'
 Spoke of the organlzation of the present Congress, and it's acts since. Selection of officers was dictated by the plutocrats and manufacturers of the East. Reed and his Republican majority had broken all precedents, leaving the minority no rights ; passed laws without debate or right to offer amendment, in the interest solely of the bondholders, manufac- turers and trusts. This Congress has thus passed more wicked laws than any previous one in the same time, and the most burdensome and iniquitous of these is the Mckinley tariff law. Dissected and showed up the corruption of this class law to enrich the few at the expense of the many.
 Next to it is the silver bill, which in effect discontinues the use of silver as money, which he thoroughly discussed. This law will make gold alone the standard money in which bonds are to be paid, and, fl Democrats fail to get control of the next Congress it may result in the national debt being funded in 1891

HOW THE TARIFF WORKS.

On our 4th page we give some facts as to the workings of the new Mckinley high tariff law. As will be seen, prlces are advancing all along the line, resultant therefrom. There is no denying the fact of the foul robbery being thus perpetrated upon consumers-the people through this class legislation of the Republican party. The manufac- turers, trusts and monopolies of the East are reaping a rich harvest for their money bought head, Benjamin Harrison, President.
 We have interviewed some of Prescott's principal merchants, among them Messrs. J. T. Brooks, W, B. Waller, Hugh Moncrief, Foster X Logan Hdw. Co.,, on the subject of higher prices, and all tell us they have received notice of ad- vance in various lines of goods, from twenty to one hundred per cent. As soon a. the present stock of goods on hand is sold, and new goods bought, much higher prices will prevail. The tariff affects the necessaries of life, such as dry goods, clothing, shoes, hats, chemicals, hardware, etc. ., most, and it won't be long ere all will feel the weight of oppression lad upon us by the Republican, par ty, for every dollar passed over the counter for goods, will buy much less than it otherwise would have done.
 No relief can come for this out rageous oppression save through the Democratic party, which opposes all such class legislation. Equal and exact justice to all, and special priv ileges to none, is the motto of Democracy. The party is now mak- ing a manly fight for a low tariff, bearing equally upon all.

 Hon. W. V. Tompkins spoke to a large crowd last Saturday at Willis vile, He spoke about an hour and twenty minutes, and he made one of the best Democratic speeches that was ever delivered at Willisville. l do not believe l am wrong in saying that It was the best tariff reform speech ever made in the township. He discussed at length the Mckinley bill and showed to the people how their taxes would increase by such a measure, and also explained to them that internal, outrageous Force bill, and told the people what might be the result if it became a law. He spoke awhile on the silver bill, and many other national issues. He spoke of those internal secret circu- lars that W. NJ. White and his party have had printed and sent in our county and other places. l learn one of the circulars was on Jason Tyson's Farm. DICK OoroN.

and the continuing of the national banks, which he opposed This is what Republicans want and what all Democrats and lovers of liberty op- pose with all their might.
 Democrats had always opposed un- lawfully giving lands to Railroads, when unearned by fulfilling their con tracts, but Republicans had in effect confirmed title to over 60,000, ,000 acres of such land grants, to the Nor thern Pac., thus robbingthousands of citizens of valuable homesteads. This land, comprising such q large area, belonged to the people, but it has been fOrcibly taken from them, and given to soullcss corporation, which had failed to earn it according to contract.
 Dissected the infamous Force bill which has already passed the Re- dublican House, and is now in the Senate, by which the rascals pro- posed to perpetuate themselves in power. Away goes our liberties if this bill becomes law-Republican dictatorship and bayonet rule as Tn reconstruction times will prevail. It is the bOldest assault on constitution al government ever attempted. Think of from one to one thousand marshals, in county, to receive pay at s per day for twelve days, employed to do dirty party work. It is an effort to get poodle without the ''fat-frying' process, as the manu- lecturers are getting tired of putting up the cash to run elections.
 Referred to the harmony and unanimity prevailing in the Demo- cratic party on all issues of the day, hypocrites and opposers of reform had been weeded out. We now stand as one man for free coinage of silver, for a low tariff, against national banks, the Force bill, land grants to railroads, unjust pension laws, and all class legislation. IlfGed all to get .a o9seesnef and fight our com 'l'2E ,sE Toe, the Republican party, composed of the manufacturers and trusts.
 This is only brief outline of Mir. McRae's speech, which was listened to with earnest attention, the audi ence often applauding the many strong points made.

RIGHT TRIUMpHS.
NEXT CONGRESS DEMOCRATIC
Arkansas all Right Cate, Brecken- ridge, M'Rae, Terry and Peel,
 Democrats, all Elected.

Tuesday will long be known as a memorable day in our history, as the elections then held in all the States, conclusiyely proved that the people want no more of the Repubh- can party. It was a grand triumph for Democracy and good govern mcnt; our party made gains in the North, South East and West. It is thought the Democratic majority in the 52nd Congress will reach forty. Thus the Republican party's pet measures, the silver bill the McKln- ley robber tariff law, and the force bill is most foreibly condemned.
 Arkansas vindicated her honor in electing all five of her Democratic Congrcssmcn, two of whom, Cate and Breckinridge, had been robbed of their seats by a thieving, con- scienceless Republican majority Langley was deeply showed nnder by MT. Breckenridge, likewise Feath- erston by Cate, and Harrison by Terry. Neither McRae or Peel had ,pG real opposition. It was a gr3nnd day for Arkansas and the nation.
 LATEST ELECTION NEWS.
 This mornings Gazette says Cate and Breckinridge are certainly cleo ted. Indications are that Mckinley, of tariff robber infamy, is defeated, likewise Ingalls, of Kansas. Bloody Kansas went Democratic. Gain of Congrcssmen all over the country, and next House will be largely Dem ocratic.
 As we print this morning, the re- returns from this county had not all come in-not over half vote cast, nearly all for McRae.

Ansley, Norwood, Robinson and others, who have for so long asserted their great love for our people, de- siring to save them from slavery" etc. soon as they are so badly beaten for office, at once forsake the people and try to hustle themselves off to Washington, thousands of miles away. Ansley, the great a. postle, is already there. This cer- tainly proves them to be what we have all along contended, office seek CTS only, political hypocrites, and a tricky ring.

When the republican majority in Congress finishes its work of ap- proprlating the surplus in the United State Treasury, this winter, it is hop ed, though it must be confessed that there is little foundation for the hope, that one cent letter postage will not be forgotten. We know that the republican bosses are not anxious to do this, or anything else that will benefit the people at large, but some of them may be shrewd enough to see that it would be a popular way to spend portion of the surplus, and that it might be made an excuse in the eyes of the masses for the millions given and proposed to be given by vicious class legislation.
